the supposition by many right-wing conspiracists that Covid-19 was definitely created in a laboratory, and the citing of the case of the 3 scientists as confirmation of that. I previously stated that there is nothing wrong with a government official calling for further investigation. But until such time as an investigation finds strong evidence for laboratory creation or at least feels like the probability is likely enough not to be dismissed, its premature to operate under the assumption Covid-19 was created in a laboratory.
