Complaining that the science is politicized by posting political commentary on it?

No thanks. I'll stick to actual scientific journals.
Zoonotic transfer and your continued zeal to be obtuse at every angle to deny the lab leak is political science .

Yet who is it who's posting political op-eds as 'proof'?



My continued insistence is wanting evidence before accepting less likely claims. You have claimed that covid was manipulated by the lab despite plenty of evidence to the contrary. You've claimed that it was a lab leak simply because it happened in the same HUGE city as a lab. Sorry but you might as well be complaining that aliens created covid when they probed people's asses.

But Covid still remains he said.
Yes, terms have meaning according to science.

Covid is no longer a pandemic, it is endemic. We will be unable to stop it even though vaccines, treatments, and isolating when sick can significantly reduce the impact.

oh, it's a Trump aide saying this so right away you know it's fake news like the stolen election and largest inauguration in history. Rember if you think that Hillary should be locked up then logic dictates Donald should be hung..

Hilary, Trump , those who were cautioned about doing risky and dangerous research by
infecting human cells with coronavirus and then covering it which likely caused this pandemic, all should be incarcerated, all for different reasons.
Any incarceration of any of them is virtually impossible though.

The pandemic is still raging as it is still affecting several continents although Covid-19 deaths are declining as infections still are increasing. Endemic pertains to people or countries and is more for “ local “ use, so it could be said that Covid-19 is endemic in certain places at present which could still change as the waves of Covid-19 keep coming. Japan just had a massive wave of the Omicron B5 variant this summer. China, where effective vaccines for their massive population are not available recently just lockdown 65 million people in a situation that is far from endemic.

So therefore China must have done it? Wow. That kind of logic will at least make flat earthers feel better about themselves.


And I'm not surprised that you don't understand the difference between the words "pandemic" and "endemic" .

The Wuhan Institute of Virology was doing research involving infecting human cells with coronavirus, which was risky, unsafe and unwise which was the likely cause of this ongoing pandemic. The WIV was cautioned years ago to abandon this type of research but apparently did not. The endemic stage hopefully is nearing but has not been reached yet. Fortunately China remains mostly in lockdown mode in terms of self- isolation from the rest of the world due to their “Zero Covid “ policy because if China opens their borders, likely more mutations would propagate during this ongoing pandemic and China doesn’t have an effective vaccine for their masses to date.

The PRC would probably distance themselves from your efforts to be their obtuse apologist .

I would drink bat soup or eat pangolin testicles before I would have paid a visit to the danger zone known of the pre-pandemic Wuhan lab.

There is some latitude and semantics on what is the difference between pandemic and endemic and lack of consensus.

There is a glass ceiling to your comprehension but the sky is the limit to your ignorance on this matter (your posts in other areas are quite good, but on this subject I think that your are remaining deliberately obtuse) lol

Would you drink bat soup, visit the wet market in Wuhan or visit the WVI without hesitation?

Amazing that you still think that coincidences are somehow proof of something while accusing someone who likes actual evidence of ignorance. I fully understand your conspiracy theory but simply prefer to look at what evidence says instead of just rejecting the work of thousands of scientists simply because of a paranoid suspicion of China.


And yes, I'd prefer vising a highly organized level 4 lab than a market of live animals being killed.

Maybe it was a lab leak…maybe not. Either way, I lost respect for the Scarf Lady’s opinion back when she was working for Trump.
