U.S. Report Concluded Covid-19 May Have Leaked From Wuhan La The 2020 lab report was used by the State Department in its own inquiry during Trump administration
WSJ ^

Posted on 06/07/2021 4:23:27 PM PDT by janetjanet998

A report on the origins of Covid-19 by a U.S. government national laboratory concluded that the hypothesis claiming the virus leaked from a Chinese lab in Wuhan is plausible and deserves further investigation, according to people familiar with the classified document. The study was prepared in May 2020 by the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California and was drawn on by the State Department when it conducted an inquiry into the pandemic’s origins during the final months of the Trump administration.

The study was important because it came from a respected national laboratory and differed from the dominant view in spring 2020 that the virus almost certainly was first transmitted to humans via an infected animal, a former official involved in the State Department inquiry said.

Could it have come directly from bats? No intermediate mammal?

The intermediate Mammal was the Asian Human that was conducting the gain of function research....

I seem to remember we were told that Trump was a racist and that all us conservatives were conspiracy theory fanatics and racist as well.

and the same ones who called us “racist” are now using terms such as “South African variant” and “Brazilian variant”.

Apparently, science says it could not have come directly from bats. The human body has natural defenses against that happening. Thus the discussion of an intermediate animal who can pass viruses for which there is not natural immunity. Not sure I understand that part.

However the structure of the covid virus has the ability to evade human immunity. That is the definition of the gain of function research being done in Wuhan.

In addition, the fact that it is transmissible through the air is another property uncharacteristic of animal viruses and another avenue of Wuhan research.

Yes, I believe the evidence points only to a lab virus. More evidence seems to be coming in daily, now.

Fauci has been the world’s most high-profile advocate of gain-of-function experiments for over a decade despite the fact that they make viruses more contagious, more invasive, and deadlier.

The 1.0 version of the virus came from bats.

The 2.0 version came from a lab.

Reason I ask is that they found the intermediate mammal for SARS-1 and for MERS.

SARS-2 did not need the intermediate mammal? I just haven’t seen that talked about
