Matt Ridley, co-author of Viral: The Search for the Origin of Covid-19, looks at some significant new information from a couple of key figures in the Covid saga that was revealed last week before the US Congress. See the article at Spiked for details (it's complicated). Ridley's conclusion:
The case for the lab-leak theory of Covid’s origins becomes ever more overwhelming with every further revelation, admission and concession. We are not quite there yet, however. The Chinese government and its scientists have yet to admit they caused the pandemic. But in exactly the right city, at exactly the right time, they were playing with exactly the right kind of genetic insertion into exactly the right part of exactly the right gene of exactly the right kind of virus, in exactly the right way. And they showed exactly the wrong kind of openness about it afterwards. It would be a heck of a coincidence and awfully bad luck if somehow Covid broke out naturally, right there and at the same time.
