You miss the point. I dont say this is not a lab-leak (and i dont care if it is, because it wont solve anything).

I say, the occam razor is : it is not a lab-leak.

Basic origin of virus is nature. Occam razor: this one too.

If you want to prove otherwise , you have to bring enough evidence.

And your statement bring nothing.

Because you use association (there is a lab near) to imply causation (the lab did it). Which is a logical fallacy.

And your list is false: you dont know which lab was close to zika. And I can bet the china lab is not the only one working on sars, there is one of the US.

And you overstate the behavior of covid compared to other sars. It is not 'tens of thousand" more special.

But we both know, that you come here with your mind make up, and not to know the truth. Because nothing you can learn will make you think it is not a lab leak
