Mind you, not all of them will have turned out to have it. But... yeah.

Said lab had leaks. Also SARS came from a Chinese lab. It’s not crazy to think that they might be related.
Also China is being extremely tight lipped about it. They claim it came from snakes and there’s limited human to human contact. That’s absolutely bullshit.
They don’t want to admit that they fucked up and admit they had a leak at a CDC style level-4 facility

Everyone knows that the CCP fucked up, not through bioweapons testing leading to a virus outbreak, but through simple public health failure. The CCP can not admit that China did anything wrong - including selling contaminated food in markets. Hence, their default answer is censorship.

Im not saying that it was a bio weapon lab but a highly possible civilian program that had an accident. They definitely did something wrong as they are blocking everything from people posting about hospitals to people literally falling over in the streets

I mean, it could be as simple as: they've known about it for a lot longer then they claim, and didn't act.
I'm not totally discounting the virology lab angle, but it's not like they need the additional excuse to be embarrassed by their poor response.

True. They could have known about it for months and just didn’t care

I'm starting to suspect that has to be the case anyway.
The rapidly ballooning number of cases makes it seem like this thing has just an absurd rate of spread, which is fueling panic. But it's more likely that the CCP is just lying about the number of earlier cases, because this has been going on for a while, and admitting that would embarrass them.

Big difference herein is that Ebola is way too deadly to form a viable pandemic; it kills too fast.
Sure, but it is what it is, a simulation. They account for worst case scenarios, best case scenarios, and all the space in between, but it's often the former. Secondly, Coronavirus covers a broad spectrum of viruses under the same name. You have some that'll give you a nasty cough for a week and others that'll turn your respiratory system into silly putty.
Seeing as this particular coronavirus is still less fatal than SARS and seems to really hit those 75+ with the diagnosis of death, I don't imagine this will snowball into a "brutal pandemic."
If I'm wrong, well, chances are I'll be dead so meh.
