"Today, the mood has changed."
Science is a mood ring that has inexplicably shifted colors from "this whack conspiracy theory must be silenced, you crazy nutter," to "well actually what had happened was that this was correct all along. Just disregard the nutter's 'told you so.'"

Just months ago, people were dismissed as xenophobic conspiracy theorists for suggesting a lab studying infectious diseases at the epicenter of a pandemic could have caused it by "experts" who reminded us it was just their culture to Ozzy Osborne down bats from live wet markets.
"Everybody sensible" was suggesting live wet markets, although barbaric, were just a part of their culture, like supermarkets are to ours, and we should respect that, even when sometimes the live animals in cramped cages and lack of cleanliness leads to global pandemics.
Never mind that secret laboratory studying the same infectious disease as people are catching, right at the epicenter of the pandemic. It couldn't have caused it; their communist government said it couldn't have, which completely refutes your crazy conspiracies, you xenophobe.
Haha, funny you should mention it, but "in March last year, it was widely agreed by everybody sensible, me included, that talk of the pandemic originating in a laboratory was pseudoscientific nonsense.
