Did anyone check out the claim that the address of the Wuhan Lab was moved in google maps?

Looks like it’s in both places but wasn’t “moved” like in that link

Article's still up for me and in the comments you have a bunch of people stalking some researcher the article mentioned. It's the Boston Marathon Bomber all over again.

It’s up for me.

Must still be a cache somewhere for you. When I try to view it, it says "This account is under investigation or was found in violation of the Medium Rules."

Interesting, I visited it from IPs from all around the world through different desktop browsers and it's available everywhere BUT there is no author and no author bio.

If that's (kind of) on purpose that's really weird, to suspend somebodies account but leave the article up and remove all the author references. Anybody from medium on hn :)?

At first it was like that for me too. After a reload, because trying to click on that Adrian Bond icon to see what else he posted, it's now gone completely like parent poster described.

The funny thing about that is when you go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wuhan_Institute_of_Virology the geocoordinates there lead you into the same forest on all major mapping services, while the pictures are recent or even from this year.

Interesting edit history, 'patriots' proudly performing Psyberwar...

That's weird...it looks like an empty forest separating farmland.

It's probably one of the adjacent buildings.

Here's an article from last week about it:
