    Unsupported claims about bio safety regulations regarding coronaviruses are worthless. And yes, the lab studies coronaviruses. I literally said that. What’s your point?

      Are you questioning the factuality of The Independent as a news source or did you fail to read the article? The claims of safety regulation lapses and Chinese obstruction are coming from the Biden administration directly. Are you indicating that they are fraudulent?

        You didn’t give a news source. There was no link.

            What post? I’m still not seeing a link. Do you expect me to just accept your quotes out of context?

                Ah, that article. Gotcha. The one that says:

                Last month, the US officials released an intelligence report and rejected several points raised by those who argued that Covid leaked from a Chinese lab, instead reiterating that American spy agencies remain divided over how the pandemic began.

                The report said the intelligence community has not gone further in determining Covid’s origins.

                  This does not negate the HHS claims that the lab was being negligent and unsafe.
