Lab Origin - How to investigate
- Contact trace employees at WIV & the less secure Wuhan CDC, a BSL-2 lab in Wuhan. And workers at any other labs playing around with coronaviruses in Wuhan. If they don’t want to reveal their contacts then put them in a Re-Education Facility and threaten their families - like you normally do - i'm sure you'll get it out of them.
- Cross check with first reported cases.
- Locate/interview WIV lab-worker, Huang Yanling, who disappeared suddenly.
- Investigate allegations by Chinese and US experts of lax security at both facilities.
- Access WIV’s database. According to international protocols, work on novel viruses must be published. Why did it go offline with unpublished material? Is that material relevant to the investigation?
- Interview all western scientist who were outspoken in denying a lab-leak was possible (Lipkin, Daszak, Baric, Holmes, Andersen, Rambaut, Garry, Farrar, Fauci, Koopmans, Drosten, Ryan, Tedros, Embarek, Nature/Lancet editors etc). Make all their Covid-related correspondence public. Don't need to rely on China to do that. Give them lie detectors - offer immunity to the first one who spills the beans.
Degree of Difficulty:
Low. It's straightforward detective work. Don't even need to be a world-leading-science-expert to do it - in fact it's better if you're not. For sure the China-part has already been done by CCP officials. So far no indication that the Western scientists involved have been interrogated. Only explanation for why not is that US Intelligence Agencies don't want to know.
(Aside: Regarding point 5, as @Billy Bostickson reported, WIV said it’s Database went offline due to "cyber-security issues", which might sound like an excuse, but it makes sense that outside intelligence agencies would have tried to hack it. Did they succeed?)
Conclusion
The weight of circumstantial evidence points to a lab-origin:
- the outbreak happened in Wuhan
- there were labs in Wuhan manipulating closely related coronaviruses
- biosecurity was lax at these labs
- lab-accidents are common
- analysis of the spike protein strongly suggests engineering
This adds up to the simplest, most logical explanation. Which ... as they like saying in the trade ... warrants further investigation.
William of Occam was a 14th century philosopher who championed the keep-it-simple technique of analysis to counter the out-in-the-weeds logic of his contemporaries. He will be turning-in-his-grave every time an expert tells us how painstakingly complicated origin tracing is, when the answers are staring us in the face. Unsurprisingly, Occam was vilified by the experts of his time.
WHO Investigator Peter Daszak, expert of our time, loves banging on about evolutionary hotspots, while another WIV/Daszak GoF collaborator, Ralph Baric, says the constant mixing of different viruses creates a great opportunity for dangerous new pathogens to emerge.
The fact is, as William of Occam would immediately point out, the hottest of hotspots was located in downtown Wuhan at WIV - where the constant mixing of different viruses created great opportunities for dangerous new pathogens to emerge. It's a recipe for disaster ...
