Has that ever been proved? All sources I can find are riddled in ambiguity. It's "one of two scenarios". I suppose we'll never really know for certain.
It has never been proven, it's just a conspiracy theory and a convenient way to blame China. The truth is that viruses are constantly evolving in nature, and pandemics are a fairly regular occurrence as a result.
1) It would be lacking bio safety, not GoF research. There are plenty of dangerous viruses stored away for research, which could escape too. Would you like to ban storage aswell?
2) Viruses mutate even if we stop GoF research. So why not try to stay ahead of the curve.
3) Many people died because conspiracy fueled rejection from vaccines even up to masks. Or would you like to elaborate how many millions died because of the new mRNA vaccine?
