   "There are some scientists who believe the lab theory. Dr. Robert Redfield, a former head of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention who led the center during the first year of the outbreak as a member of the Trump administration, told CNN's Dr. Sanjay Gupta in March that his personal opinion, one he admitted is not shared byeveryone, is that the virus originated in a lab. *Comic-book theory of Covid.* Scientists who study viruses in the field are extremely skeptical of this view. "That's the way it would be in a movie or some sort of a thriller or a comic book," Robert Garry, of Tulane, told CNN'sMaggie Fox after Redfield shared his views. Garry helped write a study published in March of last year that showed the virus arose naturally." "Science will eventually figure it out," Redfield said. That's right. It won't be US intelligence agencies that determine where the virus came from. But there is definitely afeeling in the US intelligence community that China isn't trying very hard to get to the bottom of it."

   Apparently - I haven't seen it - Tucker is also disparaging me because I called out Fox News for their comic book-like RaTG13+pango scenario.

   @Eddie Holmes The timing of all of the sequence information on sarbecoviruses is really the most definitive proof that SC2 is not a product of engineering, cell culture passage or GoF research.
