Lex is wrong on this. Responsibility does fall on China. For many reasons. <br><br>Failure to meet research safety standards (not even failure but an unwillingness), that's a start. <br>Lousy attention to protocol, from a micro level to the entire culture -- this is not China's first lab leak, which anyone who's spent time in China can easily chalk up to their 差不多 attitude, i.e., going cheap, cutting corners, meeting things only halfway. <br>It's easy to believe, therefore, that the last major global outbreaks in this century have come from China, one of which was, you guessed it, a lab leak.<br>Above all, there was the fact that amid the Wuhan cover up and subsequent lockdown, they grounded domestic flights while allowing mainlanders to fly internationally. The Coronavirus got delivered to Europe, North America, South America, and Australia by none other than Chinese people. Fact. These people shirked advice, all ethics, and basic protocol. <br><br>The mishandling of this outbreak by both the Chinese government and the Chinese people who fled China as carriers is colossal. Time to toughen up with some backbone and call them out for it.,(reply>), i know, when their behavior is articulated and knowing their motivations its easy to conclude these are acts of war
