NYT:
YEKATERINBURG, Russia — Patients with unexplained pneumonias started showing up at hospitals; within days, dozens were dead. The secret police seized doctors’ records and ordered them to keep silent. American spies picked up clues about a lab leak, but the local authorities had a more mundane explanation: contaminated meat.

It took more than a decade for the truth to come out.

In April and May 1979, at least 66 people died after airborne anthrax bacteria emerged from a military lab in the Soviet Union. But leading American scientists voiced confidence in the Soviets’ claim that the pathogen had jumped from animals to humans. Only after a full-fledged investigation in the 1990s did one of those scientists confirm the earlier suspicions: The accident in what is now the Russian Urals city of Yekaterinburg was a lab leak, one of the deadliest ever documented.


Always trust the Experts and the Science?
We don’t have science anymore we have psychopath’s.

Meanwhile, there's still no evidnece for a lab leak.

And the number of pandemics orginating in China is ... a little less than you'd expect, given their population.

When Swine Flu originated in the USA in 1976, was that an American plot directed by President Ford?
 
How hard is it to keep the lab door closed?!

Were you born in a barn, or what?
