RE: "It's important to note that so far there is no direct evidence for either theory. "

"Most virologist believe it to have evolved in animals. No evidence in its genetic makeup to suggest otherwise.

Could have escaped from a lab that was studying it, or the animal it had infected, by infecting a lab worker who spread it to others.

The conjecture that it was artificially created as a possible biological weapon, as stated by many, is still not at all likely.

That it was a naturally occurring virus in animals that that somehow jumped to humans is still the most likely scenario.

Whether it happened inside or outside a lab is not yet known."

Let's review:

"Most virologist believe it to have evolved in animals."

What evidence is there to support that hypothesis?

"No evidence in its genetic makeup to suggest otherwise."

And, no evidence to support it.

"Could have escaped from a lab that was studying it, or the animal it had infected, by infecting a lab worker who spread it to others."

Could have.

"The conjecture..."

Conjecture, also known as "guessing"

"it was a naturally occurring virus in animals that that somehow jumped to humans is still the most likely scenario."

You know this 'how'? What science and studies are there to show that?

"Whether it happened inside or outside a lab is not yet known."

Yet, the lack of its prevalence among 'critters' in the area would suggest that the China virus isn't 'popular' among animals.

What to think?
