Anthony Fauci’s diaries just reignited the endless COVID origin debate

Original version ·

Just when everyone thought we had moved on to arguing about new things, Anthony Fauci dropped his pandemic diaries and sent the internet right back to 2020.

Anthony Fauci published his personal pandemic journals, and predictably, the internet immediately restarted the fight over how COVID-19 actually started.

The core argument still splits between a natural spillover from animals in a Wuhan market and a potential lab leak from the Wuhan Institute of Virology. While virologists mostly lean toward the wild animal spillover theory based on early genetic data, transparency issues keep fueling suspicions about the lab down the street.

Despite years of investigations and private diaries going public, science still lacks a definitive smoking gun for either side.

America spent four years arguing on social media, only to arrive right back at square one with a stack of published diary pages.
