    US intel: Coronavirus not manmade, still studying lab theory
    WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump has speculated that China could have unleashed the coronavirus on the world due to some kind of horrible “mistake,” and his intelligence agencies said they are still examining a notion put forward by the president and aides that the pandemic may have resulted

    I just don't see how one can say with any certainty one way or the other.

    The article just says it's not manmade because some agency said so.

      I believe it is not man-made, but I believe it originated in a lab. The Wuhan CDC has an office 3 miles from the Wuhan wet market, which was Ground Zero for the pandemic. The Institute of Virology is 8 miles away. They were studying Coronavirus in at least 1 of those locations. (China is a county with an area of roughly 3.7 million square miles).

      I invite you all to do the math, but don't overthink it. Sometimes 2 plus 2 really does equal 4. Either someone screwed up and the virus got out, or we have one of the biggest coincidences in the history of the world.

        my opinon also

        man has something to do with its creation but i do not think it was a bio weapon. think it got created from work on bats and some person made a mistake, maybe not even smart enough to know they did and it entered their body. they then go to the market and it spreads.

          They cannot and will not say it's man-made, there are legal ramifications.

          Meanwhile, the guy who discovered AIDS and won the Nobel Prize says it sure is man-made,
          and that it never goes away, it has properties of at least 3 major diseases - and gets passed generationally.
