Totally fair. I did not mean my criticism as a complete dismissal of this story. I mean my criticism to be only scoped to the idea that this is not necessarily unique to COVID. (I don't think this is unique to US, btw. The UK has certainly been showing that they can go crazy with toxic discourse. And most of the dysfunction in this story would be in China's realm?) I still am not clear how to really feel about the COVID story. I never knew what was at stake, as it were. Certainly we should continue to have ever increasing safety in lab procedures. That is true regardless of if this one came from a lab. Similarly, probably wise to not try and build super bugs. But, again, true regardless of this one?
