Yes, that's exactly what happened. Except it didn't and science isn't based on your feelings on an unsubstantiated anecdote and even IF it were real, real scientists with real brains are gonna figure this out. Not you.
Three researchers from China's Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) sought hospital care in November 2019
"Sought hospital care" = DEFINITELY COVID!
There is NO OTHER POSSIBLE INFECTION THEY COULD HAVE HAD!
The only virus that infects humans, especially humans who study viruses is COVID!
FACT!
(This is some weak-ass shit. Especially since the article you pasted even says COVID likely didn't come for a lab. You didn't even read it.)
It's clever how they mislead people into thinking that. The scientists actually say.
It is “beyond reasonable doubt” the Covid pandemic started with infected animals sold at a market
Which doesn't necessarily imply a zoonotic origin.
You didn't understand it. The paper and data they are working from states
"our study does not rule out human-to-animal transmission, as the sampling was carried out after the human infection within the market. Thus, the possibility of potential introduction of the virus to the market through infected humans, or cold-chain products, cannot yet be ruled out."
Yes. As I said, no amount of evidence matters to conspiracy mongers. It’s always, “you can’t prove it didn’t happen!”
