$100 Trillion Destroyed: China's Virus Outbreak; Chinese Economy: Consumption; South China Sea - China Update

4. Tony is not a virologist and from my observations most journalists are undereducated in the sciences.

As far as your claim that the lab leak is a conspiracy, nearly everyone agrees that a lab leak is as plausible as transmission of COVID-19 in the wet markets. Therefore, anyone who claims that a lab leak is not possible is in contradiction with the experts. Most likely we will never identify with 90%+ certainty how COVID was transmitted.

I think that Tony is accurate, he informed his audience of the CIA report which is pertinent to his blog since it is related to China. I listened to the first segment and I didn't hear any reporting that is inaccurate. I don't expect Tony to dive in depth on topics pertaining to epidemiology or virology since China Update is not a science blog. Perhaps your expectations of what information journalists provide are unrealistic? Are you a journalist?

If you are so bothered by Tony's report, then why do you watch them? Tony has already explained that an outside company is responsible for the titles and thumbnails and that has allowed his channel to grow about 40% in the past two months. I consider the information in the reports to be more important than the wording in a video title or thumbnails since I know that YouTube and other marketing companies influence those decisions.

Pardon the limited response, but I have to get to the grocery store and return back home before the bus system shuts down in a couple hours.
