Lab Leak: The Video

Ryan Grim from The Hill has a video out that does a good job in summarizing the Vanity Fair article on the origin of COVID-19 that I wrote about a few days ago. In just over 10 minutes Grim does an excellent job in explaining what the Vanity Fair article said and what it all means.

Judging from the comments, Grim is a long time lab leak skeptic but he now says that the theory of COVID-19 coming from a lab leak is not merely a plausible explanation but, by far, the most likely one. He also argues, persuasively I think, that of course the Wuhan lab would want to do the (gain of function) research. They had every incentive to do so.

If you want to understand what the current arguments are concerning the pandemic’s origin, the video is an excellent and easy way to find out with an investment of only 10 minutes. The takeaway is what it’s always been: these people have been lying from the beginning in an effort to protect the virology community and its research programs. The danger is that they won’t have learned their lesson and will continue doing dangerous gain of function research until they manage to kill us all.
