New Analysis Suggests 70% Chance COVID Originated from Wuhan Lab

A new analysis suggests that the Covid-19 virus may have originated from a lab, with researchers assigning a 68% likelihood to the pandemic being an unnatural outbreak. The study points to the Wuhan Institute of Virology's proximity to the wet market where the first cases emerged, as well as unusual characteristics of the virus and suspicious actions at the lab. While the zoonotic theory remains, recent revelations about experiments to create a Covid-like virus have emboldened lab leak supporters. The implications of this study highlight the importance of preventing unnatural outbreaks due to human error and inadequate biosafety procedures.
