"To be somewhat pithy (as your links are rehashing already posted info) - the disease MAY have begun in a lab, or MAY not have - so what? How does that change either the disease progression or your preparations for it?" - ironyak
Seems to me that the origin would make a big difference to those trying to come up with a vaccine. To take ironyaks thought process a step further: it's what we don't know not what we know to be the big challenge. How do you prepare for the unknown? Perhaps military strategists would have the best insight?
Sorry I don't have a link but I did read from what I remember to be a credible news source that a top Hong Kong doctor virologist working on the Wuhan virus has determined the virus does not like humidity or sunshine. Hopefully that rules out the BI.
