Except it wasn't plausibly deniable at all.  The records and fingerprints were there from the start with regard to the funding.  The information that the US was giving money to that lab was out pretty early on.  All they could do was try to confuse the issue and misdirect (or ban people from internet platforms).

Are you implying the US involvment was sloppy and lazy, and then once the "bat" got out of the bag, the evidence of involvement became available, the numbers of reported deaths skyrocketed, so the state utilized existing political divisions and a complicit press to divert the nation into arguing over fear based emotions and statistics, silencing those who refused the manufactured narrative? Because if that's not what you're implying, then I will flat out say it.  :laugh:

revised syntax and added a clause to an already run-on sentence

I think it is more plausible that some scientists who already believed that science should have no borders chose to outsource some work they deemed worth the risk - and thought they could have done for relatively cheap but this time it came back and bit all of us.  Then those selfsame people - already in positions of authority - rushed to cover up their mistakes.
