French Academy of Medicine: COVID-19 likely result of lab accident | Euractiv
The French National Academy of Medicine has now come out officially to back the theory that COVID-19 was likely caused by a lab leak in Wuhan, China.
How the covid lab leak became the American public’s predominant theory
New polling shows as many as two-thirds of Americans favor it. But the public has long leaned more strongly toward it than the government and scientists do.

What Follows from Lab Leak?
Does it matter whether SARS-CoV-2 leaked from a lab in Wuhan or had natural zoonotic origins? I think on the margin it does matter. First, and most importantly, the higher the probability that SARS-CoV-2 leaked from a lab the higher the probability we should expect another pandemic.* Research at Wuhan was not especially unusual or […]
Why the lab leak theory matters
Here is Ross Douthat at the NYT: …there’s a pretty big difference between a world where the Chinese regime can say, We weren’t responsible for Covid but we crushed the virus and the West did not, because we’re strong and they’re decadent, and a world where this was basically their Chernobyl except their incompetence and cover-up […]
The truth about banning “dangerous gain-of-function” research
A new bill introduced into the US Senate claims to make us safer. Instead, it would destroy all virology research, and for no real cause.
No, gain of function research did not cause COVID-19
SARS-CoV-2 first emerged in humans in 2019. Despite much noise generated by lab leak proponents, the evidence indicates a natural origin.
Ask Ethan: Couldn’t COVID-19 have originated in a Chinese lab?
In theory, scientists could've produced a deadly virus that accidentally infected lab workers. In practice, we know that didn't happen.
No, Science Clearly Shows That COVID-19 Wasn’t Leaked From A Wuhan Lab
It occurred naturally, and scientists know this for certain. Starting in late 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, began infecting human beings for the very first time. Discovered in samples […]

US rejects WHO amendments, shattering CCP’s weaponization of 'pandemics' - America Out Loud News
Dr. Li-Meng Yan w/ The Voice of Dr. Yan – The 2024 WHO amendments are outwardly packaged as “global health cooperation,” but in reality, they institutionalize the CCP’s “unrestricted warfare” achievements during COVID-19 into the future global pandemic prevention system. The provisions completely avoid accountability for the lab origin of SARS-CoV-2 and Chinese military-civil fusion“gain-of-function” research...
