Why? No evidence was presented . They made a point to label this a conspiracy theory by publishing the letter in the first place. This creates doubt and confusion in the people looking for answers .</p> https://blogs.mercola.com:443/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2021/06/25/the-lancet-asks-covid-letter-writers-to-admit-conflicts-of-interest.aspx?ShowAllComments=True#10983446/24/2021 4:08:39 AM24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:1098344MikePage0<p>Surely the Lancet itself, to try and assert some credibility, and / or investigative journalists can mount a detailed exposure of all 27 and ask how they were involved in this farcical &nbsp;- non-scientific letter. They should be asked to individually to pen their own rationale for their beliefs, based on evidence or best knowledge of timing and sequence of events; &nbsp;cover-ups or retraction of various significant data and papers; &nbsp;SARS-COV-2 chimeric structure including the postulated insertion of known HIV and other viral parts, furin cleavage site &nbsp;&amp; modification of spike structures that coincidentally allow easier penetration into humans; known laboratory research practices including gain of function that massively increase the likelihood of significant and maybe targeted variants; &nbsp;the sadly all-too-frequent laboratory viral accidents and escapes; clear delays; obstruction and manipulation by the CCP to thwart timely through and independent investigation into the Wuhan epicentre and overall the rare chance that this could happen in the wild compared to the plausible likelihood of a laboratory where we know this kind of research is planned and acted upon to precisely engineer such viral adaptations. &nbsp;The only doubt Is whether this WAS RELEASED BY ACCIDENT OR ON PURPOSE.</p> https://blogs.mercola.com:443/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2021/06/25/the-lancet-asks-covid-letter-writers-to-admit-conflicts-of-interest.aspx?ShowAllComments=True#10980256/23/2021 7:54:48 AM24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:1098025Shepard505<p>The motives for signing the letter should be looked at for all the signers of that letter.</p>
