Maybe there was a coronavirus lab in Wuhan because coronavirus variants have been a known threat for a long time and they wanted to study them but I dunno I’m just some guy

Or maybe also that’s just where it was first identified in part due to help from the lab. There’s some evidence that it was circulating undetected well before this.

I’ve had some thoughts about this point for a while now. Let’s say it started in America: would we have ever even caught it? What are the chances the initial few patients would have even had healh insurance? What are the chances they would have gone to see a doctor even if they did have insurance due to time/cost? What are the chances the doctor wouldn’t have just said “sounds like the flu, go home and rest”? What are the odds the doctor would have ordered samples of the virus to be looked at to see if it was a novel disease? At every possible instance the American system would have failed horribly.

Oh sure, my house is on fire and here comes the FIRE department to put it out! Your truck literally says FIRE on the side of it in big letters, and I’m supposed to listen to you? I’m really supposed to think it’s just a coincidence that FIREfighters are at my house every week telling me to stop spending $3600 on candles?

Holy shit Jon, this is like blaming the fact that gold exists in a mountain on a gold mine. Have you thought for a second about why Wuhan with a lab might have been the first place Covid-19 was detected? Have you forgotten about Italy and Spain claiming that they had medical reports that contradict the Wuhan origin theory, or the fact the hospitals in LA, New York, and London all released reports in December 2019 on an unexpected uptick in severe flu and pneumonia like symptoms over the previous month?

No, of course you don’t. :pathetic:

Hey now, he’s just a comedian. You can’t get mad at him because he’s joking. He might break down into tears and yell in a silent room, but that’s just comedy, he’s not serious.

He has no influence whatsoever in the porridge mind of his audience, not at all, no sir.

What a fucking coward. He reaped all the benefits of being the only person in media to the left of Kissinger while deflecting any criticism against him with “I’m a comedian”
