Dr. Anthony Fuaci has reversed himself — AGAIN — and is now calling for an investigation of the lab in Wuhan, China and the origin of COVID-19:

So, for a year it was a conspiracy theory that a lab accident led to the release of the deadly virus but now he’s all, “no, I’m not convinced” that it emerged naturally:
NEW: In May 2020, Fauci scoffed at the idea of a Wuhan lab escape, claiming "I don’t get what they’re talking about." But when asked in May 2021 if he's still confident COVID-19 emerged naturally, Fauci said "No, I’m not convinced about that."@DCExaminerhttps://t.co/kgusHhEj2t

That’s a “huge change,” to say the least:
Fauci is now saying he’s not confident the coronavirus emerged naturally and he endorses more investigation into the Wuhan labs. A huge change from what he said for many months. Wow. https://t.co/uDLtl1pXCB

Other health experts also want the lab theory examined further:
Was the covid-19 pandemic caused by a laboratory accident? A year ago, this idea was denounced as a conspiracy theory. Now, a group of prominent biologists say there needs to be a "safe space" for asking this question. https://t.co/L0EjHVzmzk

And remember when CNN’s Chris Cillizza talked about how Dr. Fauci “crushed Donald Trump’s theory on the origins of the coronavirus”?

Just add it to the list of his takes that haven’t aged well:
