Lägg av nu. Labbet i Wuhan hade inte varit möjligt utan samarbete. Alla forskare är i princip utbildade i USA. Och man bedriver forskning med cellkulturer inte djur. Typ gain-of-function-experiment.
Jaha ja.

In October 2013, the US government put a stop to all federal funding for gain-of-function studies, with particular concern rising about influenza, SARS, and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS). “NIH [National Institutes of Health] has funded such studies because they help define the fundamental nature of human-pathogen interactions, enable the assessment of the pandemic potential of emerging infectious agents, and inform public health and preparedness efforts,” NIH Director Francis Collins said in a statement at the time. “These studies, however, also entail biosafety and biosecurity risks, which need to be understood better.”

It has also been a source of concern for U.S. officials dating back at least two years.
Two State Department cables show that American embassy officials in Beijing made several visits to the research facility and sent two official warnings back to Washington in early 2018 about the lab’s inadequate safety measures. This was at a time when researchers were conducting risky studies on coronaviruses from bats, The Washington Post reported, citing intelligence sources.

China strongly rejects the possibility that the virus originated in the biosecurity lab instead of from animal-to-human transmission in Wuhan. However, authorities have offered little evidence to back up the claim.
Instead, there is Chinese evidence that the lab had safety problems. VOA has located state media reports showing that there were security incidents flagged by national inspections as well as reported accidents that occurred when workers were trying to catch bats for study.
bout a year before the coronavirus outbreak, a security review conducted by a Chinese national team found the lab did not meet national standards in five categories.
The document on the lab's official website said after a rigorous and meticulous review, the team gave a high evaluation of the lab’s overall safety management. "At the same time, the review team also put forward further rectification opinions on the five non-conformities and two observations found during the review."
In addition to problems in the lab, state media also reported that national reviewers found scientists were sloppy when they were handling bats.
One of the researchers working at the Wuhan Center for Disease Control & Prevention described to China's state media that he was once attacked by bats and he ended up getting bat blood on his skin.
In another incident the same researcher forgot to take protective measures, and the urine of a bat dripped “like rain onto the top of his head,” reported China’s Xinhua state news agency.
