Logical Thinking: My Comment on the Notable Headline:
>US Pentagon’s top general says COVID-19 has natural origins, but questions remain

The facts are, mankind is nowhere capable of creating a viral bio-weapon from scratch yet.
Not even close.
Crisper capacity is the best tool known to the public at the current time. It is only capable of splicing what nature has already assembled in the way of viral or bacterial codes.
Codes are like the sentences in books. You can splice a sentence from one book into the paragraphs of another. The books are nature's product.
Therefore:
ALL viral bio-weapons have a "natural origin".
Meaning the code for all viruses comes from nature.
We have to start with "bat viruses" or other kinds of viruses, then, they are altered.
So yeah.
The question is not one of "origins".
The question is one of "man made alterations" vs natural alterations.
Too many alterations over too short a period of time especially too many alterations at the SAME time, would indicate man made alterations.
Alterations that show whole exact code sequences that "originate" in totally unrelated viruses (for example, natural but exact HIV code chunk -sentences, stuck on a corona type virus book, would indicate a man made alteration.
…..Finding an HIV sequence in the CORONA, is like finding the sentence "Mary had a Little Lamb" in the middle of the Gettysburg Address.
Bit obvious.
And we DO know the sequence sentences, due to the extensive global virus libraries.
But who needs a pissed off population and a war over the facts, which would do more harm than the virus itself. (Also, logical thinking)
Nice job General Milley.
The public does not really understand the science of splicing.
But Chinese researchers do, as well as US researchers.
If push comes to shove, make sure people understand what really happened, and trust that they will deal legally with the "Silent war" bio-nukes, without using the real nukes in an outright noisy obvious war. We are with you. The biologic would not be worth producing if we widely used the new technology 222 nanometer human safe germicidal light. I looked at it. It kills viruses/bacteria but does not get through dead layer of skin or even water layer on the human eye.
Only downside I can think of, is, it MAY also kill normal floral bacteria on the skin and leave human skin defenseless against pathogens the way that current hand sanitizer does.
Too much sanitizer on the hands, kills off normal hand flora, and people start getting skin infections on their hands over time, because there is nothing to stop the pathogens from taking up residence. Otherwise, the 222 is a great idea for safely killing virus/bacteria indoors.
Just my thoughts.
