Wuhan Flu update.

As a general rule, assume the opposite of anything zero hedge prints is the truth.

ZH is one of the few reliable fact based and well researched news venues today. The MSM is so full of shit it is not worth wiping your arse with it.

Sure they are.

Zero Hedge is a far-right libertarian financial blog

Zero Hedge, per its motto, is bearish in its investment outlook and analysis, often deriving from its adherence to the Austrian School of economics and credit cycles.
 
Sources in the Conspiracy-Pseudoscience category may publish unverifiable information that is not always supported by evidence.

Overall, we rate ZeroHedge an extreme right-biased conspiracy website based on the promotion of false/misleading/debunked information that routinely denigrates the left.

ZeroHedge was banned from Twitter in February 2020; according to some, its last tweet referred to speculation the coronavirus could be a bioweapon, and BuzzFeed accused ZeroHedge of doxxing a Chinese scientist. As of June 2020, its account had been restored. ZeroHedge has been banned from other sites as well.

Writers on the left and right have referred to ZeroHedge as conservative; BuzzFeed referred to ZeroHedge as a "popular pro-Trump website," and Gateway Pundit referred to ZeroHedge as a "top conservative and pro-Trump website." Wikipedia refers to ZeroHedge as "a libertarian or right-wing financial blog," and notes that it reflects an "adherence to the Austrian School of economics and credit cycles." Wikipedia also says that ZeroHedge has "expanded into non-financial analysis, such as conspiracy theories and fringe rhetoric that has been associated with the Radical right (United States) and a pro-Russian bias."

Yep, got it. All the leftists and communists hate the site because their lies get exposed.
Yes they got banned from Twitter for suggesting that the Wuhan Virus was developed in the Wuhan lab. They got re-instated some months later when many scientific minds agreed this was the most likely explanation, and the WHO is too spineless to take on China. So there is a great example of anti-woke journalism. Also, Jack Dorsey apologized to Zero Hedge for the ban.

Here's a link to provoke thought on the subject. I don't think the BBC is some extreme right wing rag, but others may think otherwise.

Wuhan Flu Origins

Facts;

Three researchers that worked at that lab were hospitalized in Nov. of 2019.

The lab was actively engaged in research on coronavirus's carried by bats.

Wuhan is the epicenter of the epidemic.

No evidence was found, or brought forth, that the 'wet' market was the origin.

I doubt that at this late a date that any irrefutable evidence is going to be found. Both the CCP and the researchers at that lab are going to do every thing in their power to bury any 'smoking gun' evidence. But the circumstantial evidence is damning.

What I know about the Mainland Chinese. They lie as a matter of course, often when the lie serves no purpose. It's not that the Chinese are liars by choice, it's a matter of survival. The consequences of making a mistake or causing embarrassment to the CCP are dire. Four generations of Communist rule have forced this upon them. The Taiwanese have no such tendencies. And they're sloppy. They take short cuts sacrificing safety in the interest of production. Safety is NOT #1 in their world.

Back to the link I provided. The last paragraph basically exposes the dilemma. Any investigation will require the full cooperation of the CCP. That fact in and of itself is highly problematic. The notion of a 'no fault' policy is fine on the surface but with 3.5 million deaths, and counting, world wide it's unlikely that the public at large is going to take such an unprejudiced view and the CCP is well aware of that fact too.

So far the CCP's reaction is to accuse and deflect and that too is telling.

Basically, the "cites" that are posted are from the era of "orange man bad" and every progressive out there was doing their best to deny everything and anything that Trump had any contact or agreement with, even if it was true and factual.

For ex; see Fauci's backpeddling lately on the whole "wuhan lab leak" theory. Only a couple of weeks ago he was all in on "that's just not possible."

Those who refer to citation from that period of time as authority are merely pissing into the wind because everything is a-changing.
 
If it turns out that the OP was right, will the time space continuum as we knew it still exist?
 
Well, it's been a little over a year since the Wuhan Flu turned the world upside down. What have we learned?

In the lock down vs. no lock down battle there appears to be no clear winner. As predicted the virus found a way to defeat most measures put in place. The only real difference between the two approaches was the severe economic damage suffered by those governmental entities that went the hard lock down route.

Yes folks, it did come from that lab in Wuhan. Only the hardest core shill for the CCP is trying to pretend otherwise now. Once again I 'called the ball' on that one. The only questions left to be answered are;

1. Was it purposely released?

2. Was it an engineered virus?

On the first question I'll posit "No". I think it was a result of typical Chinese sloppy safeguards.

The answer to the second is way above my pay grade but serious researchers are now beginning to ask that same question. The problem here is that the CCP has had plenty of time to cover it's tracks. An investigation into this question should have been started almost immediately.

We were assured by the Media and respected researchers that the virus did NOT originate in that lab and that there was "no way" that this was an engineered virus. Media and researchers that all turned out to be lying sons a bitches. I hold the media especially at fault in that instead of digging for the truth they were actively complicit in burying the truth. Journalism in any real sense of the word is dead. Blindly believe the media, any media, at your own peril.

Yeah, this was a no-brainer from the git-go.

You cannot trust China. The only place worse is The Hermit Kingdom...
