SARS CoV2 appears to have emerged from laboratory work that was dual use

Bret Weinstein: "SARS CoV2, the virus that causes COVID appears to have emerged from laboratory work that was dual use. Dual use work means bioweapons research. The excuse so it's called dual use because you're only allowed to do bioweapons research if it's also research that might contribute to public health. So the excuse is: "Well the gain of function research is so that we can create pathogens and learn what to do about them before they find themselves out of nature and we don't know what to do." This is a nonsense story. It's not coherent to think that by creating some pathogen in a laboratory that you're going to learn something about pathogens that might leap out of nature. For one thing pathogens leaping out of nature is a difficult thing for them to do. They have to do 2 tricks and it's not easy. They have to infect a person, some pathogens will do that, but then before that person dies or gets better, they have to jump from one person to the next. Very very few are ever going to jump that gap, so it's not a big risk.
And then if you've created a pathogen of your own, you're going to learn about what to do about that pathogen, but it's not broadly applicable. And you can see, we had research on coronaviruses being done in the Wuhan Institute, being done in North Carolina, how much help did it give us? What did we learn from that research that protected us from COVID? And the answer is nothing. Because it's inconceivable that you would. So they're using the excuse of public health to do this weapons research."
