@K_G_Andersen The fact that the virus emerged in a city with a laboratory performing gain-of-function research on coronaviruses would also seem to fall into the category of "evidence" but not proof. I don't think it's persuasive to parse the definition of "evidence" in this way. — PolitiTweet.org

@K_G_Andersen I'm sensitive to this language because it comes after a year of the WHO and other groups saying that there was "no evidence" of things that later proved to be true when what they really meant (in a layperson's terms) was "no definitive proof yet". https://t.co/77ulagloBp — PolitiTweet.org

@K_G_Andersen I think you're still missing the point, which is that playing semantic games about what constitutes "evidence" isn't persuasive. Just argue most of the evidence lines up on your side, as you've been doing in this thread. You'll have a way better chance of convincing people. — PolitiTweet.org
