The three scientists were engaged in “gain-of-function” research on SARS-like coronaviruses when they fell ill.
It looks like the Chinese lab leak conspiracy theory is slowly being revealed to be conspiracy fact?

There is a body of published research now that supports an animal to human crossover event occurring at the Wuhan wet market. The US government is going to have to provide more than circumstantial evidence if they want to be taken seriously by the scientific community. They can’t just claim that a few scientists had flu like symptoms during flu season therefore Covid-19 must have been a lab leak.
Maybe the first human infection did happen from animal crossover at the wet market-- and Patient Zero just happened to be a scientist who worked at the lab, who went back to work after lunch and infected all their colleagues.
