Renowned Australian epidemiologist suggests Covid-19 may have originated in a Chinese lab, backed by new information from US congressional hearings.

One of Australia’s distinguished epidemiologists, leading a significant scientific paper on the origins of Covid-19, stated that there is a credible possibility that the virus originated from a lab in China. This theory, supported by a substantial amount of new information from various congressional hearings in the US, was put forward by Professor Raina MacIntyre from the University of NSW. MacIntyre emphasized that the possibility of the virus being created in a laboratory is as plausible as the natural origin theory and should not be hastily dismissed by other academics. Utilizing the Grunow-Finke tool, a well-established tool in military medicine, MacIntyre’s study shows that an unnatural origin is equally if not more plausible than a natural origin. Therefore, she advocates for ongoing investigation into this question, emphasizing the need to consider a variety of evidence sources including biology, virology, intelligence from government and military sources, among others. It is noted that the majority of unnatural epidemics in history have been misclassified as natural, highlighting the importance of the GFT in differentiating between natural and unnatural epidemics. MacIntyre’s research underscores the need to encompass various lines of evidence, beyond just virology or epidemiology, to fully understand the origin of Covid-19. A prime example cited is the Sverdlovsk anthrax leak, where despite insisting the incident was natural, years later it was revealed to be a lab leak. MacIntyre emphasizes the importance of not dismissing theories prematurely, as the US intelligence agencies themselves are divided on this issue, warranting further investigation.
