Did COVID happen in the laboratory?

Link Copy 2022-10-25 09:34:52

Prediction

The laboratory origin is indirectly confirmed by the fact that the natural source of the coronavirus has not yet been found. It was searched for in bats, snakes and pangolins, but not a single genetic chain of viruses of these animals coincided with SARS-CoV-2 so that the entire scientific community considered them their original hosts.

Reason

The Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) has been studying coronaviruses in bats for more than 10 years. And his lab is located just a few kilometers from the Huanan Market, where the first cluster of infections originated. Proponents of the theory say that the leakage of the virus could - intentionally or accidentally - occur in a laboratory, from where it hit the market and spread around the world.

The WHO report said it was very likely that Covid reached humans from bats through an intermediate carrier. To this day, however, scientists have not found a virus that matches the genetic makeup of COVID-19 in bats or other animals.

Prediction

No. Agencies do not cope with the basic task - they cannot objectively assess the creditworthiness of the borrower.

Reason

The company that is evaluated pays for the valuation. There is no transparent methodology for calculating the rating that can be verified. Rating agencies are not responsible for the ratings given. Geopolitical interests influence the ratings of agencies.

No. Agencies do not cope with the basic task - they cannot objectively assess the creditworthiness of the borrower.
