“ COVID-19 more likely was the result of an accidental lab leak..."
Former CDC Director Dr. Robert Redfield: "Based on my initial analysis of the data, I came to believe and I still believe today that it indicates that COVID-19 more likely was the result of an accidental lab leak than a result of a natural spillover event." For the medical experts here. https://www.c-span.org/video/?c5060899/covid-19-re...

Where's his initial analysis of the data?

"I came to believe—and still believe today—that it
indicates COVID-19 infections more likely were the result of an accidental lab leak
than the result of a natural spillover event. This [loose] conclusion is based primarily on the
biology of the virus itself, including its rapid high infectivity for human to human
transmission which would then predict rapid evolution of new variants, as well as a
number of other important factors to include the unusual actions in and around
Wuhan in the fall of 2019, all of which I am happy to discuss today"

So because it spread fast, it was man made. His loose conclusion talk sounds like "my gut instinct reaction". High infectivity is not an indication it is man made. If so, all colds and flus are man made. Then "the biology itself"? We haven't reached the point where someone can look at the biology itself and show it's man made. We'd have to have some basis to look at virus and say it was man made and there is no basis, other than pure conjecture, for saying the biology was man made. But it doesn't sound good to say there's no sound basis for thinking it was man made, and unfortunately we are likely to never know at this point.

But we have a segment of the population that wants to believe - which is different than admitting there's a very low probability of it being man made. Government is bad and wrong and funded the GOF that gave birth to Covid, and Trump is not bad for...

Yes, Trump was and IS bad. Still. He should threaten making Philippines a state - half the populace would be thrilled.

It's important to note that Redfield acknowledges he does not have evidence to support his claims, and the origins of COVID-19 remain a subject of ongoing scientific investigation and debate.

Also The House committee’s ethics report on Matt Gaetz is quite lengthy.
But the MAGA's will stop reading after 1 paragraph.
