On Monday’s broadcast of CNN’s “OutFront,” Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic Ranking Member Rep. Raul Ruiz (D-CA) addressed a question regarding the suppression of the lab leak theory for COVID-19’s origins. He acknowledged that the theory is still a potential explanation but noted it was intertwined with a narrative suggesting that Dr. Fauci and Dr. Collins created the pandemic and that it subsequently leaked. According to Ruiz, this narrative fosters distrust and endangers public health officials’ lives through violent threats they receive.
