I am not into conspiracies, but I highly recommend this video from early 2020 which details how one of the Chinese researchers at WIV, Huang Yan Ling disappeared in late 2019 and how subsequently her internet presence was memory holed [1] by Chinese censors (all verifiable with the links in the video description and wayback).
This to me is one of the smoking guns.
Imagine the chain of events if they had just admitted "Yeah we made this virus, whoops".
The US probably would have demanded China pay for all the virus response. That's $16 Trillion, but originally looked much smaller - China may have agreed to pay. Upon such a debt not being paid, the threat of war probably would have been used. The outcome probably would have been either a massive debt crippling China's economy for 50+ years, or a real on-the-ground war between nuclear states.
The world would be a very different place today.
