It is improbable that SARS-CoV-2 emerged through laboratory manipulation of a related SARS-CoV-like coronavirus. As noted above, the RBD of SARS-CoV-2 is optimized for binding to human ACE2 with an efficient solution different from those previously predicted7,11. Furthermore, if genetic manipulation had been performed, one of the several reverse-genetic systems available for betacoronaviruses would probably have been used19. However, the genetic data irrefutably show that SARS-CoV-2 is not derived from any previously used virus backbone20. Instead, we propose two scenarios that can plausibly explain the origin of SARS-CoV-2: (i) natural selection in an animal host before zoonotic transfer; and (ii) natural selection in humans following zoonotic transfer. We also discuss whether selection during passage could have given rise to SARS-CoV-2.

So, let's summarize: The firm that basically created the mess that is WeWork by dumping billions of dollars into the company, also owns a patent troll that bought up the patents from the sham medical testing firm Theranos, and is now using those patents to sue one of the few diagnostics companies that is actually making a Covid-19 test... in the middle of a pandemic. And, demanding the use of those tests be blocked

O companie medicală vrea să dea în judecată voluntari care imprimă valve cu echipamente 3D pentru tratamentul împotriva COVID-19

"O valvă folosită în tratamentele pentru cei infectaţi cu noul coronavirus este mărul discordiei în acest caz. Ea poate fi cumpărată pentru 11.000 de dolari de la producătorul de echipamente medicale, în timp ce voluntarii o fabrică cu doar 1 dolar."

E de remarcat si faptul ca nu e divulgat numele firmei care vrea sa-i dea in judecata pe cei care produc valvele cu 1 dolar si care nu vor sa faca nici un profit.
