Republicans across the board are spiking the political football after President Joe Biden’s Department of Energy admitted that the coronavirus, originating in Wuhan, China, likely stemmed from a lab leak.
Several key Republican lawmakers, including Sens. Tom Cotton and Rand Paul , have long questioned the true origins of the coronavirus, as officials, such as Dr. Anthony Fauci, initially dismissed the lab leak theory. A May 2020 article fromthat Fauci “says the best evidence shows the virus behind the pandemic was not made in a lab in China.”
“If you look at the evolution of the virus in bats and what’s out there now, [the scientific evidence] is very, very strongly leaning toward this could not have been artificially or deliberately manipulated. … Everything about the stepwise evolution over time strongly indicates that [this virus] evolved in nature and then jumped species,” Fauci said at the time.
However, Biden’s Energy Department now states it is likely that the virus originated in a lab, saying so with “low confidence.”
