As I've been saying since day 1: this was a Chinese bioweapon that escaped their Wuhan bioweapons lab. China covered up releasing this bioweapon on the world and should be correctly regarded as mass murdering terrorists who used bioweapons on the entire planet.

The only just response is to permantly embargo China, repudiate all sovereign debts they hold, inform them we expect the head of every member of the CCP on a platter, and if they object nuke those Commie scum and let God sort them out.

While this is probably true, I no more trust a bunch of electronic data purporting to be real emails sent at the time than I do the original verbal lies .. it ain't that hard to make fake emails. Probably easier than faking paper letters.

Not entirely accurate:

The e-mails are from Valentine's Day 2020 - 12 days after the public became aware, and indicates an infection in a - several months after it had already been swirling around in Wuhan in the 3rd-4th Q of 2019.

The e-mail merely confirms a lab-technician in this particular lab had gotten infected with "SARS-2" - and is not the source.
