Chinese lab conducted extensive research on deadly bat viruses, but there is no evidence of accident

1. Occam's Razor

This lab that so happened to study viruses linked to bats has an outbreak start in the same community that the lab is located.

It doesn't take a tinfoil hat to at least extensively investigate the possibility. In fact, except for the the political power of China, we would already have our scientists conducting an extensive independent investigation if it was a small country without nuclear weapons. We wouldn't give them a choice.
