If you find that many scientists are unmoved by the finding that more PCR machines were purchased in Wuhan in 2019, that’s because PCR is too general to point to anything in particular.
It’s like finding that someone bought more batteries one year. It doesn’t tell us anything.

Furthermore the purchases were made by multiple different institutions over a time period of May to late 2019. Not in parallel, but in different months.
It doesn’t make sense to me how this would be the response to an emerging outbreak beginning in May 2019.

It would be a completely different matter if Wuhan purchases of PCR reagents and primers specific to coronavirus had increased at an unprecedented rate in 2019 prior to December.

I’m only reading the news coverage. Maybe they all missed the point, which is possible when analyses are too technical.
