GOP rep. blames 'penguins' for ruining the Covid lab leak theory

Raw Story  

Rep. Nicole Malliotakis suggested "penguins" were to blame for convincing some scientists that Covid-19 was created in nature. At a House Oversight Committee hearing on Tuesday, Malliotakis asked two professors why scientists initially discounted a theory that the Covid-19 virus leaked from a lab. "All of a sudden, you did a 180, and it couldn't possibly come from a lab or maybe, but you're all saying that you know, this was by sure from nature," Malliotakis said. "The scientific literature, you know, the publication of the pangolin genomic sequence showed that there was a receptor binding domain," Garry said.
