I'm guessing Wuhan was f--king around with a virus and something got out accidentally vs what Republicans like to conspiracy as intentional. Then bury what happened. Though who really knows. Of course all the lockdowns were questionable to put it lightly. Sadly people were going to die regardless, and you can't save every life. I think someone in the public needed to say this to the camera. Have the courage to. I don't remember anyone doing so. Someone should have been doing bed capacity at hospitals, identifying true covid hospitalizations etc to get an accurate assessment.
You said so many things in your post that are simply wrong, it’s hard to know where to begin correcting them. I’ll try anyway.

That’s just wrong, wrong, wrong. The only part you got right was, “though who really knows?” All the rest is pure speculation, without any evidence that might support – or refute it.
The following info has been published by reputable scientific journals that review and verify before publishing anything. The MAGA crazies who occasionally post here, only cite trash journals that pose at being scientific.
I don’t expect you to have read any of these scientific papers, but I or others have discussed them on this thread. It’s a very long thread to read, but you should know about these posts before you post such obviously wrong BS.
What Do We Know?
There is no evidence at all that any virus leak occurred at the Wuhan Virus Inst. And, equally important, there is no evidence at all that it didn’t happen. Don’t guess or speculate when so little is actually known. Blaming anyone for what is not known is not possible. But it is foolish.
- There is a fair amount of DNA evidence pointing to the Wuhan fresh market as the most likely place where the break out began in December 2019. This indirect evidence does suggest that a small wild animal was infected by a Corona virus, died from it in the market, and the virus quickly spread to other live animals & humans. This market is the first location with detectable virus DNA evidence, and therefore we can only conclude that other unknown events might have preceded this. We’ll probably never know more than this.
- Other hard evidence shows that a highly similar Corona virus had already infected patients in a cancer treatment clinical trial going on in Italy during the summer of 2019. These people did not seem to have Covid-19 symptoms, but they might have been masked by their ongoing colon cancer. This doesn’t tell us that the source of the pandemic was in Italy, but it does show that it might have existed long before the Wuhan Market incident in China.
- Less direct evidence from Spain shows Covid-19-like DNA was found in sewage water samples, as early as the spring of 2019.
- There is also plenty of good DNA evidence that a Covid-19 virus strain coming from Europe infected East Coast USA cities. Cities on the West Coast showed DNA from an Asian virus strain. Were there at least two different sources of virus? How far had they spread before coming to the USA?
- None of this is direct evidence of where & when the breakout first happened, but it does clearly demonstrate that it easily could have happened somewhere other than China, well before December 2019.
What Don’t We Know?
China has been totally unwilling to release any information. We don’t know why. It’s totally wrong to assume you do know their intentions. But the MAGA wing-nuts never let that get in the way of their rabid conclusions.
Therefore, in the absence of any further info, we can be certain of very little.

The lock downs may not have been popular, but they were clearly needed to prevent more spread and more deaths than actually did happen. Public Health history shows lock downs were absolutely needed because we had no other treatment options before the vaccines were ready. That these vaccines were produced and tested in about one year is miraculously fast. (Anthony Fauci is largely responsible for that.) It should be no surprise that many of those who opposed lock downs also denied any danger from a virus pandemic, and went berserk about the vaccines.
