You’re mixing up a debate of whether the first human cases of COVID in Wuhan came from an animal vs a lab leak. The same article you linked to contains this quote from Embarek:
“And the conclusion was we did not find evidence of large outbreaks that could be related to cases of COVID-19 prior to December 2019 in Wuhan or elsewhere.”

However, I brought up the fact that the virus unlikely originated in Wuhan according to the WHO researches as an additional piece of evidence of how unlikely the Wuhan lab leak theory is. That quote indicates precisely what I said, that researches are up in the air about the probable place of origin of Covid.
