I can't access the image, but it is kind of funny that the US funded gain-of-function experiments we were doing with coronaviruses (or at least experiments very similar to gain of function), were taking place in North Carolina. They collaborated with the Wuhan institute because that's who you would collaborate with if you wanted to research SARS. Right wingers bang on about this issue because they can do the "China bad" thing, but the research they are blaming for creating covid would have been done in North Carolina.
The conclusion, of course, is that since the outbreak didn't start in North Carolina, obviously this research wasn't responsible for covid.
But if Covid did start in the US, how quickly does anyone think we would have detected it? It would have just been a mystery cold from hell until it got into a long term care home. It was in China for a month or two before they detected it, and unlike the US, they were actively monitoring for SARS.
So were there any mysteriously deadly pneumonia outbreaks occuring in North Carolina in late 2019? Yes. Yes there were. In at least a couple of long term care homes. We never investigated any of those outbreaks to see if there was SARS present... because why bother? It started in China.
Americans want to blame China for COVID but if something similar starts up, say, in the deplorable conditions of a factory pig farm in Arkansas, practically every non-vegan American would become incredibly indignant over accepting any blame.
It would be more like if China was running a pig operation at an American farm, and then a pandemic hit, and everyone blamed America lol
I managed to find it in their history, here it is: https://imgur.com/a/CRwan3n
According to him the outbreak did start in the US, but it was less contagious at the start. Hence the outbreaks in Virginia retirement homes and throughout US schools and in vapers, but not having mass-population contagion yet
The "mysterious" US outbreaks start from June 2019 into November 2019, well before the official date of the Chinese outbreak.
There was also that weird Spanish sewer sample from May 2019? or March 2019 I forget. But that one could maybe be a freak/unrelated
