I really hope I'm just not picking up the sarcasm or irony in this statement. I am dense, so that's entirely possible. If so, my bad!

The last 15 months should have shown the hubris behind this sentiment, especially considering how with orange man bad gone, we're getting a better look at the lab leak hypothesis and potential dangers of gain of function research. We are just as culpable as the Chinese, if this is the case, considering NIH grant money was funneled into the WIV to do gain of function research on bat coronaviruses.
