China Is Floating Theories that COVID-19 Originated Elsewhere

It’s been more than a year since the World Health Organisation declared COVID-19 a pandemic, taking the lives of more than half a million people across the world.
On June 11 2020, Chinese health officials declared a new spread of coronavirus in Xinfadi Wholesale Food Market, after 57 days of being COVID-free. Chinese authorities claim that there is evidence to show that the coronavirus could be transmitted via food packaging. China has since implemented mandatory testing on all imported cold-chain foods, in an effort to prevent COVID-19 from entering the country.
But can the coronavirus live on frozen food imports?
The World Health Organisation believes that there is currently no evidence to support this. However, some experts believe that China is trying to divert the conversation by pushing the idea that the coronavirus originated elsewhere.
VICE World News speaks with Dale Fisher, a professor in Infectious Diseases at the National University of Singapore and Andrew Small, an expert in China politics at the German Marshall Fund, to find out more about the science and logic behind China’s claims.

It clearly originated in the Wuhan Lab that manufacturers corona viruses, 300 metres from the wet market scapegoat. The US funded this lab (Fauci involved). They're all in on it and the rich have got way richer, the powerful have got way more powerful. And us sheep have had more and more freedoms eroded whilst a whole new level of surveillance infrastructure has been implemented. Event 201, Agenda 2020. Writing is on the wall for anyone with even half open eyes. Former CDC Director Robert Redfield told CNN in March that “most likely etiology of this pathogen in Wuhan was from a laboratory.” CNN doctor Sanjay Gupta even defended Redfield’s “informed” conclusion last month, saying he was “really was quite adamant that this was the origin of the virus.” The NIH signed off on gain-of-function research grants to the Wuhan Virology Institute in 2014

Actually if you read the Chinese language, most Chinese media and state media do not suggest the virus came from elsewhere but as a natural occurrence - something most international scientists agree on. Fringe crazies in China may promote the virus comjng from the US. Another group are the ultranationalists that do so in response to provocation by Tom Cotton (yes go check the records - he is the first to accuse China of using coronavirus as a bio weapon) - a very strange theory if you ask me, unleashing it on your own city in Wuhan in the hope that it would hopefully spread to the US - doesn't even make sense logically. However the outcome is clear, now the Chinese have no disincentive for actually creating bioweapons to target the US since it already is being accused of doing so. Also, as the past year has made clear to all of us (and terrorists/ other non state actors), the US is unable to withstand a biological attack. Seomthing which Iran Russia the Taliban can target with cheap bioweapons. And believe me when I say that China, Iran, Russia etc have stockpiles and the capability to actually produce viral weapons that have much much higher mortality (50-70%) compared to the weak coronavirus (1-2% mortality).

[@OhNoYouDidntDZ]

@@slslbbn4096 How is it a strange theory ? First off it's pretty clear that the CCP has no problem killing it's own people. Secondly, they literally had squadrons of people disinfecting streets everywhere. It's almost as if they were ready and they knew how to get rid of it. Something you would expect if they engineered it. Lastly, this is how wars will be fought from now on. You cant just nuke a country and get condemned by the rest of the world. So instead they fight to create instability, affect the economy and then the overall power of a country is diminished. It's kind of funny how the US got hit way harder than any other country, almost as if someone had their aim on them and what a coincidence they just happen to be enemies. You really think it isn't suspicious that the US got hit this hard while being the enemy of China where the virus originated, which the country tried to hide ( what other reason than to spread it ? ) Meanwhile other countries in europe were acting the same way as in the US and didn't get nearly as hard. It isn't far fetched at all if anything it's the most likely theory of all the ones I've heard. It would explain why China pretended there was no problem when there clearly was one.

[@eengooglegebruiker4153]

There is something else that bothers me, please hear me out. It's evident that Covid-19 was already circulating before the outbreak on the Wuhan food market in December 2019. However, the food market is considered the very first major infection cluster. The WHO report from march 2021 states: "The Wuhan CDC laboratory moved on 2nd December 2019 to a new location near the Huanan food market. Such moves can be disruptive for the operations of any laboratory." The new location of the CDC lab is only a few hundred meters from the food market (contrary to the WIV laboratory which is 15 km away). Remarkably, the first hospitalization related to the food market was 8 days later on 10 December. What if a lab leak occurred, infecting the lab technicians and local outsiders during this move? This combined with the following facts: - The bats that carry the closest relative to Covid-19 (RaTG13) live 1500 km away from Wuhan in the Mojiang cave. They would never have flown 1500 km into a densely populated metropolis. In addition, no bats where sold at the Wuhan food market. - The WIV lab spent years collecting 293 different coronaviruses, including the RaTG13 sample. - The WIV lab performed multiple experiments involving coronaviruses in 2018 and 2019, including risky gain of function experiments. - 3 Lab technicians of the WIV were taken into hospital in November 2019 with Covid like symptoms. - Scientists emphasize that several genomic characteristics of Covid-19 do not support a natural zoonotic origin. Brings me to the question: how can all of this be a complete coincidence if Covid-19 really originated outside of a lab?

All they've done is cut off political opportunities in Australia, made Australia spend $270 billion on long range missiles to protect themselves & the entire region from China if needed & made all China's target countries in the area feel confident that if Australia says they're supporting them, they can trust that Australia has the character to stand up to China without backing down. PNG was supposed to be one of China's "debt diplomacy" victims, they've received funding from Australia to conduct a report into the quality of work China did there & armed with that report, have told China they won't be paying any of the debt, knowing Australia has their back. A lot more countries will now follow down that path effectively ending China's belt & road ambitions with one stupid move. So not exactly getting away with it :) They're going to pay a VERY heavy price for showing their true colours so obviously to a country, with a lot of powerful western allies & friends, that was previously trying to build relations with them & content to let them get away with a lot in order to do so but that is now a country fully awake to what they're doing & unified in a desire to make sure they don't succeed & willing to offer it's position to all western allies that want to get involved in challenging china.

If the inspectors werent invited so late and being so tightly monitored it may have shown that there was more to it, but since the time passed so long no evidence could be gathered the only conclusion has to be the original assessment.

We might even think it didn't start in China! But the first case reported to the world is Chinese and what we don't understand is because the authorities, after knowing what they had in their hands, took so long to act and to set the alarm?

[@izziestevens5835]

I’m baffled why people who aren’t Chinese even want to live there. Some of the worst air pollution, no freedom of speech, deceitful government, human rights violations, and what I don’t understand is if China is communist then why are people who aren’t from there moving there? Isn’t the country supposed to take all your money and distribute it evenly among its people? I don’t know.

[@lilaclizard4504]

Worth noting though that this isn't happening in other countries. NZ had one case early on that couldn't be identified as to source & may possibly have been from imported frozen food, but no more since genome sequencing has increased. Australia, Singapore, Vietnam, all the South Pacific Islands (who import huge amounts of their food) & all the other covid free countries of the world have never reported this happening. There's no reason it would happen in China but nowhere else

[@uroko2993]

Well, China would be sure to be responsible for it if there were any source proving the virus was made by them. But statistically, China is handling it better than most of the world so far. Although I personally suspected the communist gov mocked some of the data (at the same level the other regimes would do the equivalent), it won't be a big deal or the government cannot cover it so easily. In this chain of reactions, China was the first node, and they did a fine job, the same time WHO warned the world on Jan 2020, the nations who previously suffered from SARS immediately rang their bells while the one whose media reports it as flu, whose people do not wear a mask and resist stay-at-home suffers.

there was a professor and student arrested at the start of the pandemic for allowing the removal of viruses where? in the US

[@MrKelaher]

Well it did originate "somewhere else" - likely Yunnan province near the Lao/Burma border. Researchers at the Wuhan lab visit the filthy bat caves and rural farms there every year and bring back samples. It is plausible that one of those workers, say a young PhD student, made a mistake and caught this very contagious virus either in the filthy caves or at the lab, or from a farm animal, or even from the humans in that area that regularly test positive for bat corona viruses, as has happened at least 4 times before with SARS viruses in Chinese labs and several times in other labs globally. It then spread into Wuhan where the only bat SARS lab in china is. Thats it. No conspiracy, just the most plausible reason that a massive city with basically zero bats got spread in a seafood market with zero mammals other than stall holders.

[@jeffreyhdixon]

In all of this I find the question is NOT: Mask or no mask; lockdown or no lockdown, enslavement or no enslavement. I find the real question to be "If there is no God how come so many are afraid to die?" The truth is that you KNOW there is a Holy God to which we must give account: "27 And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment, 28 so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him." It reads to save those who are what?: "Eagerly waiting for Him." Those who are not waiting for Him will suffer eternal punishment as they will die confirmed and stuck in their sinful immoral condition, a condition that precludes their acceptance and excludes them from reward and rest but necessitates endless punishment.

If those working in crowded, enclosed environments, such as food production/processing plants, shouldn’t all workers be wearing face masks? Those unpacking food products should also be wearing masks. This sounds like a breach in protocol, because once the food is packaged and packed for transport, it shouldn’t be subject to exposure until it is unpacked at its destination.

setting up another country for the blame is easy. the us had done the same with labelling h1n1 as the spanish flu when the latter was a superpower. it might be china or maybe not but bill gates & some others have predicted this scenario years ago, which means these diseases could have started anywhere as long as humans continue to interact with nature via hunting, consumption or something as simple as a camping trip.
