In Reply to: Lab-Concocted or Zoonotic Origin of COVID? Which is more probable? posted by vacuous on August 25, 2021 at 14:42:00:
Those articles are interesting and while I read them quickly, there appeared to be little 'proof' and a lot of using the 'authority' as the proof.
The first one is not a scientific paper unless foreignpolicy.com is a science site. His conclusion is meaningless.
Over the past year, I've spoken with a slew of researchers, scientists, and public health experts: Their takes on the origins of COVID-19 generally fall into two camps. Most say that the virus is very likely natural and that theories around the Wuhan Institute of Virology are a possible explanation, but they're unlikely. The other group, a minority, says both theories are more or less equally valid and that the lab leak theory is in desperate need of more study.
It's hard to fault either camp.
