No proof of that claim whatsoever.

Any proof of any alternative?

There’s this video on YouTube… ?

Is that the one with the guys wearing camo and talking really loud and missing teeth?

Or the guys wearing 'make america great again' hats and joe rogan t-shirts?

“I think what they’re arguing could be true,” Dr. Bloom said of the new studies. “But I don’t think the quality of the data is sufficient to say that any of these scenarios are true with confidence.”

'Quality of data means they can't be sure.'
Does not mean it was released there from a lab.

If that's a you've got, I pity you.

If that's your conclusion so be it.  All from people with no peer reviewed papers on their work, and a secretive lab to which they have no access .. in short, they don't know and you sure as hell don't.  But carry on.

............... and a secretive lab to which they have no access ..

That's not quite true, there were even a number of Australian's in that Wuhan Lab at the time, they are now back in Australia and have largely been ignored by mainstream and social media. I believe there were even Americans and Canadians working in the Wuhan lab at the time.

As I understand the Wuhan lab is like a twin of the Geelong facility, part of a set of watchdogs labs spread around the globe that monitor for this very thing. They are staffed with both local and foreign researchers under a UN agreement.

Blaming that lab is a bit like blaming the bloodhound for the body it finds!

You should be more worried about the gain of function research proposals that were rejected by the Wuhan administration, what happened to the people that made those proposals, and where did they go to next looking for funding?

An aside; I've visited analogous facilities for nanotechnology development, there is one wright here in Melbourne built with the assisted expertise of the people who built Geelong, they are very similar to a biosecurity / pathogen lab in that they are ultraclean containment workspaces. There are no opaque walls or places to hide research, the whole building is eerie double glazed glass walls with negative down drafts and manage pressure differentials everywhere. More like a weird all glass James Bond movie lab than secure compartments. Whatever floor you are on you can see pretty much everybody excluding some big bits of kit hiding people away like giant microscopes, fridges, ovens, monitors, etc., etc.. Even if some facility needs a solid wall they have viewing portholes. The facility is deliberately designed that way and everybody is vigilant because someone else's mistake can destroy years of your own work or put you at risk. These are the cleanest least secretive places on earth, people(the public) do not get to see in them because we are basically walking piles of portable filth!

That is my conclusion.

Its also the conclusion of the guy you wanted everyone to read. Not sure why you can't see that.

To bring this back to footy for a second.

What he is saying, is that based on the shots on goal, the distances of the balls kicked around the ground, it can not be determined that there was a breeze blowing to one end of the ground. There may very well have been a breeze, but there is not enough data to say so with certainty.
People there felt a breeze.
People predicted a breeze prior to the game.
If there was a breeze, it would result in data basically the same as that.
Evidence can not prove there was not a breeze.

But....we can not be 100% sure there was a breeze based on the data alone.

What you are reading from that is.....that there was no footy and it was actually a monster truck rally....and it was in a dome.

How and why you get to that conclusion based on the above information is anybodys guess, but thats something only you can answer.

Ahh - it's our turn.

Our boy (10) tested -ve on a RAT before school yesterday.  Got home, looked like sh!t.  Had a temp of 39, tested again and +ve.

Looks like he is following the pattern of other kids that we know who got it, so he should be OK in a couple of days.

Fever is down to the low 38s, but we all have to isolate for the week and hope that we don't take it in turns to test positive.

No idea where he got it from - there are quite a few options!

Had to let his cricket team know (I'm the coach), make arrangements for training, match, after match mini celebration for the end of the season, work out what to do for the fathers'/son game on Sunday and he gets to miss the presentation day as well.  Had to let his tennis team know as well - as well as opposition for both sports.  Then there is the school run around, and friends who he mucked around with on the weekend.  After that is the other extra curricular activities for both of them as well to advise that they won't be attending this week.

After doing the school stuff (the better half did this), we have been contacted by the council's health service, who were pretty friendly and just going over things.  We get to do a daily check in with them.

Then there's all our stuff - cancelled planned client visits, couple of medical appointments, planning day on Sat for a client etc.  Letting all the extracurricular activities know.  I think doing this you realise sometimes how much goes on in our lives, 

Hopefully, he is the only one that will get Covid, however, if we are all to get it, hopefully it is close to within a week of each other.  Worst case scenario is that we get it one week at a time and our daughter (6) is the last one - so she would have to isolate for 4 weeks.
