I haven't been reading the news lately but skim headlines. Weren't there just articles about how they aren't sure it was natural? That it MIGHT have been created?

I could be wrong.

Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and President Biden's chief medical adviser, is supporting an open investigation of the coronavirus origins, saying earlier this month he is not convinced it developed naturally.

I am not convinced about that. I think we should continue to investigate what went on in China until we continue to find out to the best of our ability what happened," Fauci said, speaking to PolitiFacts Katie Sanders at an event.
"Certainly, the people who investigated it say it likely was the emergence from an animal reservoir that then infected individuals, but it could have been something else, and we need to find that out. So, you know, that's the reason why I said I'm perfectly in favor of any investigation that looks into the origin of the virus," he continued.

Then be consistent. Why isnt there more probing into Senators investing in companies that developed vaccines? They not only used inside intel for massive profits but they then downplayed the virus which also led to a shitload of people dying.

If a witch hunt is to be done those people need to be out first. Theyre blaming China to take the heat off of how massively corrupt they are.

They answered specifically what I asked. And I appreciate it.

Anyways, if it ends up that it was manufactured we will NEVER hear the end of it from the conspiracy Republicans who maybe weren't wrong.

Although we are still a ways away from them saying either way I think.

So it sounds like this particular investigation is being shut down amid questions about validity/bias in its findings, but other investigations into the same thing are ongoing?

Though Biden officials shut down this particular inquiry, they remain skeptical of Beijing's role in limiting investigators from accessing information that may be pertinent to the origins of the virus. US intelligence agencies continue to examine the question of whether the virus emerged naturally from human contact with infected animals or if it could have been the result of a laboratory accident.
...
A State Department spokesperson confirmed work on the inquiry had stopped, saying, "Even though this discrete project has concluded, the State Department continues to work with the interagency to look into the COVID origins issue."

That's not how the world works. Even if we were to prove that not only China develop it, but they 100% released it intentionally, nothing more than strong words will come out of it.

It's a waste of time and resources. Sure there is a chance this either came from the lab or potentially even was being developed in the lab, but both those are slim outcomes.

I would support an independent commission investigating the origins and response to Covid, the what did we know when and how did we react so we can have a better plan in place for next time. (And there will be a next time). Focusing on the Wuhan lab though, it's just not productive.

I don't think China intentionally unleashed this shit, but could their negligence have resulted in this outbreak? Absolutely, and it should be investigated. Biden however doesn't have the balls to go after China on anything.

If you as smart as you think youd realize both countries can be at fault. It could also have been completely unintentional.

How is this hard to comprehend? China will be addressed. The World Health Organization should be probing into that. This isnt simply Americas problem to address from halfway across the world.

What Americans need to be worried about is the blatant negligence and corruption.

That doesnt mean he condones a witch hunt. That just means he isnt sure.

Its whatever. Honestly I do agree that it should be looked into. I just dont like how all this rage is always directed elsewhere. The US government has problems and nobody ever cares. For once can we stop blaming everyone else?

The Republicans tried to overturn a fucking election and we just moved right past it.

You guys just lack awareness. You care about the origin and the conclusion but not everything that happened in between. The only things being talked about are Wuhan and how many are vaccinated. COVID began in November 2019. So instead of only looking at the beginning(Wuhan) and end(vaccinations) we need to focus on the 18 months in between.

Its really that simple. If were blaming people then lets be thorough.

I take no issue with Biden shutting down or reversing anything tainted by the Trump administration.

This is the wrong attitude to have - essentially a case of correlation vs causation, in that there's a very, VERY high correlation between "came from Trump administration" and "steaming pile of shit", but the two don't directly cause each other. If this claim is valid, it's valid whether or not Trump was on its side. Remember what they say about broken clocks.

We already know more or less what went wrong, because there are lots of examples of places where it didn't go wrong - or at least, not nearly as wrong - that we can look at for that - Australia, New Zealand, Taiwan, Singapore, etc. We don't yet know how this started in the first place, at all - we have some very plausible theories, but we don't know which one is correct.
