City Journal: The worldwide toll of deaths from Covid-19 has just hit 6 million. Few
science stories are more important than understanding where the Covid virus
came from. Yet the science writers’ section of the press corps has proved
strangely incapable of telling the story straight…. No scientist wishes to get
on the wrong side of NIH administrators, the major funders of biomedical
research. If [Francis] Collins said the lab leak was a conspiracy theory, why
then, so it must be…. Dulled by the advantages of this collusion, science
writers pay little attention to in-house problems that seriously detract from
the credibility of the scientific research enterprise (CityJournal).
