There is NOTHING "novel" in this coronavirus.
China has an ENORMOUS population, living in a densely populated region. They should NOT have eaten a lot of rats, bats and other kinds of animals, that carry viruses.

Already, there have been many major episodes of ASIATIC plagues, that originated from China and devasted the World in the past.
The Black Death in the 13th century and the Spanish Flu in the 19th century. Then SARS in 2003.
And now the Bat-Soup virus!!!

The CRUX is that it affects ASIAN MALES more. Impossible for anyone to engineer such a virus.
Its a perfectly naturally generated virus, which was accidentally caused by foolish Chinese activities, of breeding and consuming animals in unhygenic conditions.
Its far beyond human scope to create anything like this.
1. First you have to get the wild virus from bats, in a cave in China.

2. Then extract, isolate the virus, and genetically edit it, which is extremely difficult.
3. Then test it on animal models, if the virus is viable.
4. Then further test it on large numbers of humans, since animal testing is often not reliable, to find a strain that affects Asian males more.
This requires a sample study of at least 10,000 humans. Of which 25% has to be Asian males, 25% Asian females, 25% non-Asian males of all races, 25% non-Asian females of all races.
5. Then further extract and isolate that strain, IF it occurs, that affects Asian males more, and use it as the bioweapon.
6. Else go back to stage 2 and repeat the process.
Such a project will take decades or centuries, and of course cannot be conducted in secret. Practically impossible.
Hence, its absolutely NOT a bioweapon, 5G or other conspiracy theories.
