They'll say that they are really mad at the media for pretending it was a conspiracy theory, but then every article is talking about the "bioweapon" or "engineered virus" as the conspiratorial claim, not that it's possible the virus was being studied and accidentally leaked

The scientists who said it was less likely did so by never explaining why it was less likely(see Australia’s WHO official). The people who have the balls to say it will tell you what should be obvious and that it came from a lab that had procedures and equipment that caused this

While the obvious right wing conspiracies should be fought back against we shouldn’t just deny reality by saying definitively it didn’t come from a lab because it likely did come from the lab. I see far too many people denying this.

Except that many scientists absolutely denied it as a possibility and went as far as to claim it ‘debunked’https://www.npr.org/2020/04/22/841925672/scientists-debunk-lab-accident-theory-of-pandemic-emergence …

Read my tweet again. There's millions of scientists and if you want to push a specific angle you can always find someone. That's why I worded my tweet the way I did

1.7 million types of viruses in mammals and birds just waiting to jump to humans. A quadrillion quadrillion (10^31) individual viruses on earth. Over 380 trillion viruses living in or on your body. Odds of natural mutation are infinitely higher than human created.
