The lies, coverups, deflection, stonewalling, and crackdowns on whistleblowers have made it impossible to believe China-friendly explanations for the outbreak.
If China’s intentions are benign, there is no need to hide its capabilities.
On COVID-19 and other matters on which the world’s well-being depends, transparency in China is not improving.
I would like tentatively to share the insights of Mr. Walter Lohman, Director of The Heritage Foundation’s Asian Studies Center, overseeing the think tank’s oldest research center.
What comes to mind when you hear the words “lab leak theory”?
Most of us would think “COVID-19,” the disease that has so disrupted our lives for two years now.
Many would then attach a modifier to it like “discredited” or “debunked.”
But those who do would be far behind the curve.
Other than the fact that it came from China, the origin of COVID-19 remains an open question—even among the scientific community.
