This is a cool paper. Of course any lab working with deadly pathogens is a safety concern...but that doesn't prove the origin of covid. Here's a reference cited in this paper that shows there were about 1500 high risk pathogen labs in the US in 2009. Where does the 60 number come from? https://www.nature.com/articles/461577a

stop lying. btw, the link between cigarettes and Lung Ca has only been known for about 75 years. before that, lighters or matches could have been blamed but science sorted it out https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22345227/#:~:text=Cigarettes were recognised as the,conspiracy to salvage cigarette sales.

exactly. Want religion in schools? Send your kids to a private school that emphasizes your beliefs. Don't want your kids indoctrinated in religions you oppose? send them to public, taxpayer funded schools. Except in backwards Louisiana. As you say, a big, obvious middle finger to liberals but also to non Christian families. Not very Christ like.

Let it play out. The Chinese are never going to admit if there was an actual lab leak. The only way to find out is to let the science play out but we may never know the answer. Moderate confidence may be the best we can do but I'm hopeful we can do better. This is a global endeavor involving the world's best. Given the diversity, openness and skepticism of the scientific community, I don't see a conspiracy to hide the truth happening. Hopefully it will lead to better results for the next pandemic.
