China lied about it at every step. They lied about its existence, about how it spread, about it having spread, about how many got it, and how many died. They forced doctors to lie, censored research and databases.
Then consider the fact that the Wuhan labs in question were known to be lacking in proper safety protocols and was specifically studying coronaviruses in bats, and the possibility of their transmission to humans.
They sampled, collected, and sequenced SARS-COV-2's closest relative (published till date), and kept it secret for years.
The destruction of evidence, deletion of viral databases, withholding of critical data & information, and the initial cover-up to suppress information reveals that the China/WIV is hiding a lot of things.

Enough smoke to launch an investigation months ago.

A thread on the origins of COVID-19, and a possible bio-containment failure at one of the Wuhan labs.

I feel there are facts not enough people know about, so I decided to summarise the important & interesting ones in this post.
Like every stellar suspence thriller, it starts with mysterious deaths that needs to be solved.

To solve this puzzle, we must go back to April 2012, in Mojiang county, where six miners contracted a SARS-like pneumonia, and three of them died.

In the same month & year of the outbreak, there was an USAID/PREDICT bat sampling project in Mojiang. (I strongly suspect they were the one's who hired the miners to clean the mineshaft for one of their project.)

“You can engineer a virus without leaving any trace. However, the answers you are looking for can only be found in the archives of the Wuhan laboratory." - Ralph Baric speaks for the first time in Italy in an interview granted to @Presa_Diretta

huffingtonpost.it/entry/e-possib…
So you rule out that SARS-CoV-2 is a laboratory chimera?

"Not with the viruses that have been sequenced and reported to date."

Are the databases public?

“Yes, the sequences can be downloaded. But then, I can't know if the researchers publish every single sequence."
"In the databases were the sequences of a large number of SARS-like bat coronaviruses identified in China - explains Baric - And in that huge basin, one could imagine that there were strains that could have grown well in human cells.."

One of the first thing they did was to disinfect their drainage and sewage system

1/ On Aug, Municipal Water Affairs Bureau launched a safety, supervision & inspection project. Emphasis on finding hidden dangers & preventing accidents.

"We used detailed phylogenetic analysis, ancestral sequence reconstruction, & molecular dynamics simulations to examine the Spike-RBD functional evolution, finding to our surprise that it has likely possessed high affinity for hACE2 since at least 2013."

biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
"If this is the case – that this viral lineage possessed the ability to bind hACE2 with high affinity
for at least the past 7 years – then why did it not emerge as a public health issue until recently?"
"One possibility is that binding hACE2 by the Spike-RBD is not sufficient, on its own, to
infect humans, and that other molecular components first needed to acquire new functions to do so."

My search for State Key Laboratory of Virology, WIV yielded some...interesting results

The main research directions of the laboratory:

To study the cross-species transmission mechanism of SARS virus, and new strategies for viral suppression of HIV, among other things (in pic)
The laboratory has the Chinese Type Culture Collection Center, Chinese Virus Resource & Information Center (the largest virus depository in Asia); 1 BSL-4 lab, 2 BSL-2 lab, 1 BSL-3, and 1 ABSL-3 animal lab located at the Wuhan University.

baike.baidu.com/item/%E7%97%85…
On December 2019, China's first "Vaccine Management Law" was officially implemented in all BSL-3 & above labs, including the ABSL-3 lab at Wuhan Uni.

So far, the ABSL-3 lab has completed AIDS, TB, SARS & other experiments on more than 1,300 monkeys.
