The following doesn't qualify as much more than a rumor, but it's the truth as far as I know.

My brother and his Chinese wife are hosting a couple from China. The couple have a relative working in the Wuhan bioweapons lab, 8 miles from the market reputed to be ground zero of the epidemic. The couple left China in December, and are not planning to go back.

The story from inside the lab is that the virus came from laboratory animals. The animals were stolen from the facility by cleaning staff, who sold them in the market.

Someone mentioned the movie Contagion earlier today. We saw it a couple of nights ago. Eerie similarities with the current situation, including a virus, China as the source, and deadly consequences.

Thanks for the information.

That fits with my own theories.

This is amazing, AZL, even though you give it appropriate caveats.

Just to be clear: This is about YOUR OWN BROTHER, and is not lifted from a blog or some other source?

Thank you for posting. I LOVE FIRST-HAND ACCOUNTS ... so much more valuable and reliable than media accounts!!

Thanks for the report. It has the ring of truth to me. Explains why it seems “not regular” and that no gov/other did it on purpose.

This scenario makes the most sense to me. Thanks for sharing.
