A group of scientists who infamously rejected the theory that Covid leaked from a Wuhan laboratory have doubled down on their claim in a new letter. The international coalition of experts said there was still 'no scientifically validated evidence' to support the so-called 'lab leak theory'. The letter, published in the Lancet, follows a controversial piece in the same journal last February, which claimed the lab leak theory created 'fear' and 'prejudice'. It has been heavily criticised in recent weeks after it emerged at least one of the signatories had undisclosed financial ties to the Wuhan lab. DID COVID LEAK FROM A WUHAN LAB?
