As soon as anyone can demonstrate why the origin of the outbreak matters even a little bit, to solve the problem we have on our hands now, I’ll listen to this pure speculation.
But the reality is everyone, including media outlets of all stripes are doing the world a massive disservice publishing anything but 100% truth. Even publishing preliminary research about what has been observed in small sample sizes is more beneficial than this pointless, divisive speculation.
None of it does a thing to help the current situation at all and in fact makes it worse. This is a global problem that won’t be solved without total cooperation between all entities on the planet. Blame and scapegoating diminishes the ability to cooperate and solve problems.
