Looks like the mainstream media narrative was a purposeful lie. They tried to sell this one off as "eating bats" as well.

The scientists trying to maintain the zoonotic origins of Ebola were the same ones recruited by Dr. Fauci into maintaining the zoonotic origins of COVID.

The media response, connections to COVID and development of the first ever FDA-approved Ebola vaccine makes it seem like it was planted, not leaked. The same playbook keeps repeating itself.
