 Yes I know that is the popular rhetoric but I don't subscribe to that. Shi is one of the World's leading virologists, in 2019 Shi was elected to the American Academy of Microbiology , and is highly respected around the world. She could not ' disappear ' without an outcry from around the world. However the refusal of China to allow a proper investigation of her lab will always focus attention on her, and her reputation. Her work with hybrid bat coronaviruses by mixing and matching some existing ones, in order to study how they replicate in humans, is said to have been done in a level 2 lab.,as reported,  and not in the level 4 lab . This is looking like a possible leakage site by some , but until China allows scientists in to the lab, it's just supposition. It could be that if .and that's a big if, the virus escaped from the lab it would have been by mistake and nothing sinister. This could be nothing more than ego not wanting to admit a mistake. If it is a mistake ,and we don't know that , the world is paying for it big time.
				
			 
			
		 
			
				
			
			
				I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food
A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking
