    So every other instance of “we investigated ourselves and found no wrongdoing” is to be called into question, but we just gonna accept this because?

      The latest analysis, which has not been peer reviewed, includes data from the whole genomes of 56 new betacoronaviruses, the broad group to which SARS-CoV-2 belongs, as well as some partial sequences. All the viruses were collected between 2004 and 2021.

      Still a developing story, so it’s not conclusion i guess.

        Even if it was peer reviewed there’s no means to ensure the input is meritable. The sample set was determined by governance. The implied conclusions were predetermined.
