I agree with OP assessment but I also believe the Good Guys” had a hand in the virus’ failure. There was a paper trail a mile long going back years. I am pretty sure this didn’t go unnoticed. The white hats somehow got in the middle of US development and China’s weaponization of this statistically non-lethal virus. I also have little doubt the virus that was developed was much more lethal than the one that was released in wuhan. Somebody prevented an extinction level event and I choose to believe that it was not due to china’s ineptness. Perhaps Gods hand and perhaps a beast-mode undercover spec ops sacrificed years of his/her life to protect us.
