As the global vaccination rollout brings light to countries wrapped in a COVID-19 darkness, an emerging “political virus” has cast a shadow on the origins of the disease.
As of Tuesday morning, more than 187 million people around the globe have contracted the virus, with more than 4 million lives lost.
However, some self-interested Western politicians are concocting conspiracy theories and spreading misinformation about the origins of the deadly virus, including the tired lab-leak hypothesis. Such unsubstantiated notions do nothing but distract researchers dedicated to learning how and where the contagion began.
Scientists worldwide have spoken out against practices of politicizing the origins of COVID-19.
