How did the virus first strike humans? Is it possible that it was from a man-made Chinese origin?
Americans deserve to know the relationship of the U.S. National Institutes of Health to the Wuhan lab and its gain-of-function research. Early deception also needs to be exposed, argues the WSJ.
Yesterday, the U.S. Energy Department concluded that a lab leak is the most likely explanation of how the pandemic started.
Covid Groupthink, Mistaken and Destructive
Arkansas Senator Tom Cotton’s wrote an op-ed pointing to the possibility of the lab leak and “raising doubts” about Beijing’s claim that it had originated in an animal “wet market.” The WSJ printed Cotton’s op-ed piece on 22 April 2020.
The media conformity caucus immediately derided Mr. Cotton for peddling a “conspiracy theory” that had been “debunked,” as the Washington Post put it at the time.
We have since learned that public-health officials wanted to hide that U.S. financial aid to the Wuhan lab may have contributed to the “gain-of-function” research that could have led to the leak. It is a disgraceful episode, like so much of the initial Covid dogma.
Given China’s coverup, we may never know for sure how the virus first struck humans. But Americans deserve to know the facts about the relationship of the U.S. National Institutes of Health to the Wuhan lab and to promoting gain-of-function research. The early deception also needs to be exposed.
