Lab-leak / accidental release hypothesis

Recipients on this medium are inferred from channel membership, not per-message addressing.

There's also news/rumours about China's top spy defecting to the US in Feb and providing info about a lab leak. I've just heard it on the radio. No idea what this actually means.https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2021/06/18/rumours-swirl-chinas-top-spycatcher-has-defected-us/
