Biden administration claims to have no clue how COVID-19 started
2021-08-27
[NYPOST] Four months after taking office, President Joe Biden
...... 46th president of the U.S. Being a self-defined foreign policy whiz kid means never having to say you're sorry......
suddenly directed US intelligence agencies to probe the origins of the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)
...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...
that — as everyone knows by now — came from China. Interesting timing this, perhaps prompted by the fact that he had just been caught canceling the previous president’s investigation into the matter.

"Senior administration officials" are now leaking to sympathetic media outlets that the final report of the intelligence community has been sent to Biden but that it is, sadly, "inconclusive."

Don’t expect to be able to read the report for yourself anytime soon, because it is "classified."

You must simply take the word of unnamed officials that we just don’t know and we may never know whether the novel coronavirus jumped from an animal to a human naturally, or might have accidentally beat feet from a lab in China.

But they are eager — perhaps too eager — to attack the idea that it could have been a bioweapon in development. They say it has several naturally occurring features that are found in other coronaviruses.

Well, of course, it does. That’s because it was genetically engineered using the "backbone" of an existing coronavirus.
