Think I responded to you other comment, but the lab’s actually next door to the market, which is consistent with your reasoning. See page 119 of the WHO report: https://www.who.int/docs/default-source/coronaviruse/final-j...


> The Wuhan CDC laboratory moved on 2nd December 2019 to a new location near the Huanan market.

SARS-CoV-2 had already been circulating for months before Dec. 2019 in Wuhan near the wet market. And therein lies the rub, that this is not remotely compelling evidence a lab leak could have caused COVID-19. In fact, it is impossible, because, again, the virus had already been circulating right there for at least a few months prior to this. But nice try.
