uh, but keep reading McNeil's linked May 2021 account: he reveals many "actual scientists" he was relying on for that "Scientists Say" headline feel they'd been misled, & further, that evidence left out (or hidden!) from the early public debate make a lab leak origin more plausible.

Not new to the most intense and well-educated followers of this topic, but new to the greater public debate. I include articles like this, this, this, this and this by Yuri Deigin, Rossana Segretto, Milton Leitenberg, Josh Rogin, Nicholson Baker and others.\n\nAnd more and and more scientists feel misled.\n\nI now agree with Nick’s central conclusion: We still do not know the source of this awful pandemic. We may never know. But the argument that it could have leaked out of the Wuhan Institute of Virology or a sister lab in Wuhan has become considerably stronger than it was a year ago, when the screaming was so loud that it drowned out serious discussion.\"",
