I don't know any 'leftists'...... but too, I've seen no one, leftist, or MAGA-QAnon'rs.......apologize for Covid either.
As far as the "origin" of Covid.....well, I dunno.
We seem to have conflicting views from different government agencies.
The latest view .....from the Energy Department......as reported:
"Though initially undecided about covid-19’s origins, Energy officials concluded as part of a new government-wide intelligence assessment that a lab accident was most likely the triggering event for the world’s worst pandemic in a century.
But other intelligence agencies involved in the classified update — completed in the past few weeks and kept under wraps — were divided on the question of covid-19’s origins, with most still maintaining that a natural, evolutionary “spillover” from animals was the most likely explanation. Even the Energy Department’s analysis was carefully hedged, as the officials expressed only “low confidence” in their conclusion, according to U.S. officials who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe a classified report."
In short, poster kyzr, it seems the better part of prudence.....is to let this cake bake.
There is stuff that we civilians cannot know. And our dilemma is that any number of partisan bad actors can take the remaining 'mysteries' of Covid and spin 'em any which way they want. Mysteries are very useful for that kind of thing, e.g.....'Monkeys & bats did it'; or, 'Dr. Fauci did it', and so on and so on.
Us civilians run a real risk of looking like fools and dupes if we too hastily promote one version or another.
Let's see how the cake bakes. IMHO
