      If you're talking about the conspiracy that it leaked out of a biological weapons research lab in Wuhan, China, yes it has.

Also arrested were two Chinese “Students” working as research assistants, one of whom was actually a lieutenant in the Chinese Army, the other captured at Logan Airport as he tried to catch a flight to China - smuggling 21 vials of “Sensitive Biological Samples” according to the FBI.

            Oh, almost forgot. The research lab the good professor had helped set up? It’s located at the Wuhan University of Technology. Wuhan China is ground zero to the potentially global pandemic known as the “Coronavirus”which is both spreading rapidly and killing people.

            This is Stephen Coonts international spy novel stuff happening in real life - and it has barely made the news.”
            https://harvardmagazine.com/2020/01/lieber-arrest

            A Harvard University professor and two other Chinese nationals were federally indicted in three separate cases for allegedly lying to the US about their involvement with China’s government, the US attorney for the district of Massachusetts announced Tuesday.


            The Department of Justice announced today that the Chair of Harvard University’s Chemistry and Chemical Biology Department and two Chinese nationals have been charged in connection with aiding the People’s Republic of China.


            The student with the smuggled vials was working on cancer research. Dr. Lieber was working on nano-technology, not viruses.

                        Yes it is serious, so is the flu and a million other things that don't get hyped like this has. It's media and fear driven and it's complete BS.
                        I agree with everything posted here. Well, except the unnecessary use of language.

                          Over a week ago the NCPA (National Collegiate Players Association) issued a press release urging the NCAA to host fan-free tournament games.

                          Extremism is so easy. You've got your position, and that's it. It doesn't take much thought. And when you go far enough to the right you meet the same idiots coming around from the left.

                              If I had to bet I'd say this is where we're heading. The TV revenue more than offsets what the venues would lose without fans.

                              Strange, STRANGE things could possibly happen if they played these games in front of nobody. The game of basketball is probably the most dependent sport on crowd intensity, noise, excitement, etc.
