I'm not trying to "make it appear the virus could only mutate in a lab". But, there are well-documented experiments in labs of the type that could create Omicron. And, only a small fraction of all experiments that are happening ever wind up in transparent sources. Consider EcoHealth's creation of hybrid viruses with increased virulence. Or the 2020 research I linked, which bred the ancestral COVID strain for increased immunity-escape. If a patient is suffering from a potentially-fatal disease, enforcing a taboo about enumerating all the possible causes is no favor to the patient. It could kill them. Squelching informed discussion of what enhanced-virulence disease agents are truly, actually being created in research labs is a similar false-decorum that can kill.
