The problem is most people don't understand just HOW much big biz and many countries pay. I get $250,000 from Exxon alone. No one pays me for the lab leak theory. I do that on using my own ignorance and stupidity! ;)

If I was a biotech I'd build my lab space here. This is a great place to live. Already a huge health sciences and educational infrastructure. Like most things, I'm not against it. Live and let live. But where people say "this thing will never happen" the Gods get mischievous.
