But you can do this too for the Chinese version of the conspiracy too.

——

Emerged after military games in Wuhan.

Where the US competed.

Who is a geopolitical rival of China.

With soldiers that work at a military biolab.

That had a major biosafety breach the same year.

And the US doesn’t let the site be inspected freely.

——

Each of these are true on their own, that doesn’t mean we can conclude the implied conclusion is true.

But the military games happened in October, the previously public database of the WIV was taken down in September a month prior due to "hacking" which why would someone hack a publicly available database is hard to imagine. And why has the database not been shared via database dumps or uploaded somewhere else since? Also if the outbreak occurred in the US there would have been major spikes in hospitalizations months earlier in the US than what happened in Wuhan.
