I get that there's a lot of fear around the idea that Covid-19 was engineered, and the potential fallout that could occur if it was proven to be fact. But I expect that almost all governments are now working under the assumption that it was, because they would be extremely foolish not to. So this is all a moot point -- at the top level, the working theory must be the lab-leak theory.
And so, fast vaccine production must be a priority. The development of drugs to treat viral infections and their manufacture must also be a priority. The ability to detect carriers and quickly shut down travel must also be a priority. And how do we enforce quarantine in populations that are resistant to it? All of these concerns are, I am certain, at the forefront in the mind of any Western government to be certain, but likely any government anywhere.
Because regardless of IF Covid-19 was created in a lab, it COULD HAVE BEEN created in a lab. And we all got caught with our pants down.
Funnily enough those screaming it was engineered loudest also were the ones saying it’s just the flu and we should react to it by not wearing masks.
I propose that what we really see is that humans have a very hard time without someone to blame (hence victim blaming, hence religion and a whole bunch of other coping mechanisms).
