I read that and her volunteered info was all over news sites last week. However, this is not what we need. What we need is an independent body that goes into the Wuhan lab.

Let us inspect the bats. The cages, the equipment, the staff.

It seems unlikely to me that a team going to the lab now would be able to tell us anything at all about how the lab was operated 18 months ago. The chances that it hasn't been completely gutted and re-worked from scratch by now seem to me to be precisely zero. The window of opportunity to get a team in there and actually find out what was going on closed probably in late January or early in February 2020.

Meanwhile we have someone here with direct experience of the lab as it was at the actual time in question. It seems to me that's absolutely the best we are ever likely to get.
