Where The Covid Pandemic Originated Carries Massive Poltiical Consequences

CNN: The Covid-19 origin story has massive political consequences 

(CNN)A growing storm over the origins in China of Covid-19 has explosive political implications for the United States at home and abroad, as well as the dueling legacies of two presidents that will be defined by the pandemic. 

President Joe Biden on Wednesday told Americans he had ordered US intelligence agencies to report in 90 days on whether the virus originated not in animals and spread to humans but might have escaped from a Chinese laboratory. 

The move deepened a mystery encompassing the pernicious spread of a deadly pathogen, an intricate epidemiological puzzle, the opacity of a totalitarian system and the bitter overtones of a superpower rivalry. 

It will fan doubts about the World Health Organization's capacity to tease out lessons from the current crisis in order to prevent future pandemics.

WNU Editor: On the US national level. The political implications that the coronavirus that spawned this pandemic is not natural, and that it probably originated by an incident/mistake/leak from a Chinese lab, will be enormous. 

On the international level. U.S. - China relations will enter an even more dangerous level. China will be responsible for the death of almost 600,000 Americans (and counting), and the devastation of its economy. Many Americans will be calling for revenge. 

As to what is my prediction.

I am concerned that there is NO real evidence that this coronavirus pandemic came from a natural source .... US Sitting On 'Raft' Of Unexamined Virus Intel; Former Official Says 'Almost No Evidence' Of Natural Origin (Zero Hedge). Mankind has faced viral and bacterial epidemics and pandemics in the past. But a coronavirus pandemic is something new. Add in the fact that this started in a city where China's main research facility is located to experiment on coronaviruses. Coupled with China's obstruction of any real independent investigations. This is all too much coincidental.

But I do not think the Biden administration has the real stomach to confront China right now. Their priority and focus is to pursue their progressive domestic agenda. I predict this intelligence report when made public is going to be ambiguous and speculative with a lot of qualifiers made in their conclusions.

Russia's flag flutters in front of the embassy building in Tallinn, Estonia. Copyright RAIGO PAJULA / AFP, FILE   RFE: Bulgaria Expels 10 Russian Diplomats, Baltics Follow Suit With Another 10 Expulsions   Bulgaria is expelling 10 Russian diplomats saying they were carrying out activities deemed incompatible with their diplomatic status, a move followed up quickly by the Baltic nations of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania.  The Bulgarian Foreign Ministry said in a statement on March 18 that it had given the 10 diplomats 72 hours to leave. The statement did not give a more detailed reason for the expulsions, but since Russia launched its unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, the Russian ambassador in Sofia has repeatedly made contradictory statements about Bulgaria's position on the conflict. The ministry also did not say who was included on the list of people being expelled.   Read more ....  WNU Editor: With tensions being as high as they are right now, expect ...
