    So what are Gain-of-Function experiments then if not increasing the potency of pathogens through experiments in a laboratory ?

    Gain-of-function explained below or is this a Conspiracy Theory as well ?

    Just as well repressive communist regimes don't know how to do this otherwise we all might be in trouble, hey. Not to worry that would just be another conspiracy theory and therefore nothing really t worry about. Yeah right.

    Religion and politics, 2 things that cause more war and deaths than malaria, the black death and spanish flu could dream of.

    Like we used to say, politicians start wars, armies end them. Strange how so few politicians these days have any military background and are career politicians with the somewhat ironic PPE degree.

    The best thing I like about conspiracy theories is the belief that Governments/Civil Servants are capable of witholding secrets from people for years or indeed decades. They all loving dropping the other side in it so much that they could never keep big secrets like the Moon Landing being faked.

    Strange that no-one has yet invoked Godwin's Law, damn does me saying that me I just did!

    Apologies Charlie, you are right. I do go off on one as has been proved more than once ! ( MCN and a few others :D)

    I get very interested in things and read everything - so you are probably just arguing with the wrong character type :D - so apologies for that !

    You might be right about the Wu Flu as well, it probably is an accident to be fair.

    So I hope I have not offended you.;)

    I am pleased to hear that because I do not want to cause offence and us all get all upset :D

    This COVID business has still got some mileage in it - the media are starting to pick up the scent of the origins of it all. So probably going to see more claims and counter claims going forward.

    Read all about it (in the style of The Sun headline !) - It Was Man What Made The Wu Flu !

    Serious article:

    Now, where's my Hydroxychloroquine ?

    My firm are making up the difference, but I agree it will cost us all for years to come regardless.

    Extinction rebellion will be hating this, the traffic stopped and they had f**k all to do with it. Greta will be in tears as she realises this lack of attention is what she is facing for the rest of her life :D

    The only problem is, our council have stopped collecting recycling. They've told us to throw it all in the bin. It doesn't feel right at all after years of training myself to recycle everything.

    We had a utility room fitted out and have an absolute ton of cardboard boxes. Tip is closed, as is the council so I can't even call to see if I can put it out with the recycle bin, normally it isn't allowed. Luckily all the bin types are still being collected though, even the garden waste.

    You have a decent council then. Mine aren't collecting garden waste either! This seems even more crap considering I have to pay £30 a year for them to take my garden wheelie bin.
