Obviously, part of the well-thought out nefarious plan by the CCP red army, WIV supervillain virologists and their space alien advisors from the future to release a virus with suboptimal FCS/RBD that they projected would evolve (after it left China) into the more fit/immunologically inert variants currently spreading around the world.

I'm looking to see if the HA379 new YN Bat CoV has the QTQTN (like RaTG13 and GD pango cov - not GX), which fits the criteria for an optimal upsteam landing site for furin.
