What are the odds that all of the viruses in the WIV that they have worked on over the years it's the one that's thereno record of that is subject to a catastrophic lab leak? Improbable that this virus exists on current data x improbablethat any virus leaks out = highly improbable.

If they have shoddy lab procedures then surely it's the virus they use most often that has the greatest chance ofleaking out?

Yes, although there may well be a difference between BSL-3/4 and BSL-2. A novel bat virus would likely be grown inBSL-2, whereas some of the others are likely BSL-3 or even -4
