Whether or not COVID-19 was a half-baked biological weapon that was accidentally released, it would be great if we took this opportunity to actually end biological weapons research globally.

There’s no reason to think it’s more likely for China to screw up like this than the US, Russia, or the scores of other nations with similar programs.

We shouldn't assume that it was designed to be a biological weapon. The Gain of Function research suspected to be the origin of this has many benefits for non-military uses like vaccine development & outbreak containment.
