Let them pursue the 'RaTG13 is the origin' line if they want. Daft. What a waste of pixels. And saying that the 2009H1N1 outbreak is a lab escape is just mental.

In context

A single line often inverts meaning once you see what it answers, so neighbouring messages are always shown.

Such utter shite. I didn't realise until the other day that the 1977 H1N1 outbreak was *not* a lab escape but a shonkyvaccine trial. Very interesting.

I thought their first one was pretty good - but this one is wacky so far. And yeah - looks like 1977 was a vaccine trial, which is pretty crazy.
