In the early response to COVID-19, many scientists strongly supported a zoonotic origin theory while dismissing alternative explanations as conspiratorial, creating a polarized climate.
Recent studies suggest new evidence for a zoonotic origin of Sars-Cov2 but remain open to alternative explanations, including a possible lab leak or human error.
The minority of scientists proposing the lab leak theory faced significant backlash, not for promoting conspiracy, but for suggesting a plausible explanation that challenges the dominant narrative.
