It MUST BE TRUE because I heard it from “scientists” AND it was on the Internet! /s

Itโ€™s admitted GE can be done in such a way as to cover or erase signs it ever was used.

Dingbat here pinky-swore in the name of SCIENCE!โ„ข that if there was ANY genetic engineering with COVID--any such attempts would leave unerasabe taxes; she said, IIRC, she'd used standard software to examine the genetic traces, as had ("probably") thousands of other molecular biologists all over the world, and according to her, none of them found any trace. She's an overconfident, piss-poor liar. Who gets more extravagant the more she thinks she has gotten away with.

we are suppose to believe a wild science fiction scenario in which Chinese scientists maliciously created a killer virus to destroy humanity.

Nice strawman.

What if they were in the early stages, and looking for a virus to use to sew short-term, intense disruption in an enemy, as a short-term advantage, say, to distract the US during an invasion of Taiwan? <,p> What is funny, though, is you continue to ignore the response of the Chicoms authorities, including massive tank trucks fogging entire neighborhoods with disinfectant chemicals, and a total quarantine of a city of 11 million people during the Chinese New Year. Either it was the mother of all head fakes, or they were *scared*.

Not what you do for something you catch from eating soup at an animal market. Troll.

Excuse me, who "admitted" that? Or was that something you read on some antivax conspiracy site?

Ralph Baric pioneered one such method.

The bat lady in China--I'm on vacation and don't have my links on the phone--has another; there was another paper I saw from a Chinese group, which mentioned a commercially available tool for doing so.

I remember in one of you childish, fatuous, autofellatory posts about a month ago, where you condescended to explain that some of the tools and reagents used by REAL SCIENTISTS like yourself, with PhDs and white lab costs and everything, even though they are too complex for mortal humans to follow, (even MDs as you said elsewhere), had reached the point that they had not only been standardized, but commercialized.

Either you're way behind the field, or you are deliberately lying, because there are tools used for inserting genetic sequences without leaving markers on either end. IBTZ troll.

You’re doing strawman again Dingbat.

Nobody’s buying your open lies anymore.

You desperate frenzied panic is palpable, now.

Hi liar.

There are multiple techniques for introducing genetic sequences without showing any strings of nucleotides marking a border or buffer between the original sequence and the insert.

Dingbat.

The one l really really miss is my patent pending mid 1950โ€™s tweed Fender Bandmaster. I installed a duo showman output transformer on it and it was by far the best sounding amp l ever heard. I got sloppy and she was stolen, after 20 years l still grieve.

I tried to point that out to her when she first posted.

But she insisted.

Sucks to be a troll around here.

She’s an affirmative action hire, apparently affiliated with the military, so her experience for general intellectual level and scientific sophistication was very low.

She has let it go to her head to the point she thinks she can lie and bluster with impunity.

BZZZZZZT.

Good catch, thanks.

Now that I’ve read the original article, this is naked propaganda

Ralph Baric explicitly and categorically excluded pangolin viruses from consideration, saying something like “There is a 3,000 nucleotide difference, there’s no way.”

Dingbat is probably seizing on this article as PROOF beca CALCULUSโ„ข! or something.

Both Chinese scientists and Experts what’s not to believe.

Thanks for your input. Do you have an opinion about whether masks work against the covid airborne virus?

Everything out of China is a lie, invasive or poisoned.

Everything.

Change my mind.

Of course!

Letโ€™s trust the Chinese communist โ€œscientistsโ€ on this topic. No further verification is necessary.

Ps - artifacts of genetic engineering are artifacts of genetic engineering.

“Researchers in China have found another bat coronavirus that possesses a furin cleavage site โ€” the part that made Covid-19 so good at infecting people.”

I don’t understand how this helps prove that Covid did not originate in a laboratory. The “lab leak” theory suggests that Covid was Frankenstein-ed together from components of natural origin, not that it was fabricated from scratch, nucleic acid by nucleic acid.

Why does it matter if a furin cleavage site can be found in some virus in some animal somewhere? What, of relevance, does that prove? How do you even know whether or not that “natural” virus has some “unnatural” precursors?
