United might have pulled more flights. I just saw something in the news about it. Not sure what exactly that means for us. I do agree with you know, they should at least send an announcement saying why it's not coming out. This is driving me crazy right now.

Did not read the article did you? No bats sold at the wet market.

I just checked on Flica and the captain bid for May has disappear. I believe AWAC might got a new updated schedule for May with a further reduction on flights and we are going to bid one more time.

Bat to lab. Lab to human (by accident). Human to market...and then to more humans.

Embarrassing...yep. Likely.....yep. Plausable......yep. A crazy conspiracy theory......nope.

"Just for you all with minds of the weaker type."

"The theory has been pushed by supporters of the President, including some congressional Republicans, who are eager to deflect criticisms of Trump's handling of the pandemic."

*from the article that you cited.

It’s one of many leads they’re investigating, and senior officials have already said there’s no evidence for it yet. It’s just due diligence, not that there’s a smoking gun.
