Original Note:
No, this is not proof COVID came from a lab. None of the coronaviruses that we know the WIV possessed could have been used as a backbone to make SARS-CoV-2. The grant proposal was rejected, the funding was denied, and so the experiment was never conducted https://quillette.com/2023/08/19/the-lab-leak-illusion/ https://www.mintpressnews.com/lab-leak-gain-function-media-myths-swirling-around-wuhan-institute/278555/
