From all the materials I've been reading, discarding those based solely on assumptions, and focus only on those with some scientific basis and/or some previous published works out of the lab, this is the closest theory:
The P4 lab in Wuhan was indeed working with coronavirus at some point in time(the virus genre as a whole, not this virus in specific, which was fine... that's the purpose of highly secure labs anyway to study the very worst stuff known to men). Although the exact intent of such research is not known, the best (and least evil) assumption was that they were studying the capability of the virus being transmitted and how to effectively counter them.
Now, if I have to inject my own conspiracy theory into... it's that some work from the lab leaked somehow (not suppose to happen for P4 lab, as the design supposed to be watertight but did anyway) and it evolved among animals from something man-made into the "naturally occurring" version that we know today.
HOWEVER, the part that pissed me off the most is not that China was working on this. Something like this could be a human error, oversight or whatever... and one can count that as bad luck. The part that pissed me off, and the part that I think we should hold China accountable for is the FACT that they try to HIDE/BURY this thing for as long as they could and go so far as saying that preventative measures such as travel restriction to China is DISCRIMINATION. I'm like... WHAT THE BLOODY FUCK? The potential of the virus... probably unknown to CCP back then (I'd give them benefit of doubt), alone should justify taking such preventative measures when people lives are at stake. It showed CLEARLY that CCP cared NOTHING about human lives but just their face and their benefits.
That, plus the incompetence of the CCP leadership, is what got the entire world into this shit right now.
When other countries try to sue China for negligence on the virus, Chinese spokesperson had the audacity to say something along the line that HIV or H1N1 is everywhere and everyone should sue US instead.
I'm like really... HIV traces back to Africa as origin and US was only the first place that properly identified it. Furthermore, US NEVER tried to bury those viruses and the severity of them. In fact, they are the country that has the most research done on them. Give me one case of US negligence on those virus because I really have hard time finding any scientific papers on it other than some opinions.
In short... I'd quote the British interim PM... "we can't pretend that nothing happened after this". If JT et al. are going to let China go easy on this, I'm sure I'd do everything in my power to make my voice heard. I've already written to my local MP. And really... any politician who don't pursue the responsibility of this to the limit where our law permits, I am sure I ain't voting that person and will do my share of effort to make sure they don't get elected. I don't like conservative one bit. But anything goes to get to the bottom of this. Because god knows if we, either as a humankind or just people in my family can survive the next screwup.
