Though I think if I were putting my conspiracy hat on, I'd think China would be my suspect. Because it's too perfect. Release it in your country cause that gives you cover from suspicion. You wouldn't infect yourself would you?

At the same time in the back of china's mind, they know they have more experience and discipline in terms of quarantining and dealing with pandemics/viral outbreaks. China deals with **** like that all the time.

So leak it in your country, do a proper quarantine and get it under control locally while it ravishes through your less prepared and less competent adversary. Pretty much perfect plan and execution, China.

Though the funny answer would be it leaked from the virology labs cafeteria where the Chinese scientists were chowing down on some Bats or pangolins or whatever the **** those weirdos eat

It's like what Sun Tzu said: Do not cut off my arm, for I have already cut off my finger. Understand the finger. Use it as a tool. Use it to point the way. But if you swing to cut off the arm, you have already lost.

That's the best you can come up with? Weak.

Not as weak as your ankles

Ya'll got me. Pandemics are magic. China is magic. Bill Nye is the prophet of our times.

On the topic of global-warming tipping points, I wonder how important this one will turn out to have been:-

Parts of Amazon now emitting more CO2 than they absorb:- https://edition.cnn.com/2021/07/15/a...scn/index.html

Quote:

During the study's nine years, the southeastern Amazon in particular has switched from a carbon sink to a "substantial carbon source," as deforestation and fires increased in frequency and severity, the study said. These factors, along with global climate change, are causing temperatures to increase steadily -- and "these changes appear to be accelerating," it added.

"Remember the good old days when the Amazon was still a net absorber of CO2 ?"
