When the "battle of Covid disinformation" raged in the media, I often noticed that the factcheckers had a tendency to say that no human epidemic was ever provably linked to a lab leak.
While true, it was a bit misleading, precisely because of this non-human, but still very economically and societally important disease outbreak which happened in a very developed country and quite recently.
I do not really understand why so many people, including some who have no conflict of interest (unlike Peter Daszak!), tend to regard Wuhan lab leak as a dirty, stupid conspiracy theory. Shit happens all the time, no precautions are perfect. If Fukushima, Chernobyl or Challenger happened, a leak of a virus from a lab can happen as well.
I totally agree that shit happens all the time. That’s the default, the null hypothesis for any system where humans are involved.
I'm glad people are trying to get some clarity on what went on.
