One's political leanings should not determine whether you want to squash the lab leak hypothesis or prove that it is true.
It's a myth that if you're a democrat or pro-science, you should want to debunk a lab #OriginOfCovid

It's likely because of my own network, but most of the people who have expressed concerns to me about a lab #OriginOfCovid and want it to be properly investigated are scientists (pro-science) and democrats/liberals.
Reporters & people describing the #OriginOfCovid issue (~6 million deaths & counting) as a political game where each side is betting on one origin should be ashamed of themselves.
The inquiry into #OriginOfCovid should be motivated by facts not one's wishes or tribalism.

If reporters are saying democrats will "win" over racists or anti-science folks if the virus is shown to come from a market, you're saying racists or anti-science folks will "win" over democrats if the virus is shown to come from a lab.
What kind of messaging (& logic) is that?

If Covid-19 is found to have come from a lab, it does not mean that racists or anti-science folks were right. Or that democrats/liberals are wrong.
It means we need to act even more urgently to prevent a future lab-based outbreak + loss of life.
Get your head right, reporters.
