When the dust settles, there should be a follow-up investigations into media and scientific community behaviors.
It's starting to look like a lot of people took big steps to spread false information, perhaps for political purposes.
- zepto 5y agoI’m guessing those political purposes were something like - “we don’t need an international conflict at the same time as trying to contend with this virus”. Or maybe even just a generic desire not to point fingers. I’m not saying this isn’t bad - just that it’s pretty easy to understand why people would downregulate the lab leak hypothesis without anything special going on.
