Director Wray explained that too often, the standard for whether an investigation, a court decision, or an election is fair is whether a particular group believes their side won or lost.FBI Director Wray confirmed that the Bureau has assessed that the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic likely originated from a lab incident in Wuhan, China.

The FBI has for quite some time now assessed that the origins of the pandemic are most likely a potential lab incident in Wuhan... I will just make the observation that the Chinese government... has been doing its best to try to thwart and obfuscate the work here, the work that we’re doing, the work that our US government and close foreign partners are doing. - FBI Director Christopher WrayFBI Director Wray emphasized his pride in the Bureau’s dedicated workforce.

We have 38,000 men and women at the FBI, not one of whom is a political appointee. Every single one of them is career law enforcement... what I see is an FBI full of people who are tackling the work with bravery, with rigor, with objectivity, and who put others, complete strangers, before themselves every single day. And I will stack our workforce up against anyone, anywhere, anytime. - FBi Director Christopher Wray

  1. Your sensationalist headline is betrayed by your own quoting Wray in the article. “Most likely” is a much lower level of knowledge than “confirms.”
    There is currently no confirming evidence that it was a lab leak. These are all guesses. The DOE as well qualified their recent tentative stance that it was a lab leak as “low confidence,” which they define as based on unreliable, fragmented, and incomplete evidence. This is a non-starter. Lesson learned: don’t rely on headlines for accurate information.
