Original Note:
Elon's claim of "Gain-of-function" = "bioweapon" is baseless. It's fair Fauci thought GoF research benefits outweigh risk of causing pandemic. Fauci might be wrong, but it's not same as bioweapon on purpose. There's no conclusion If lab leak caused COVID pandemic. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/07/31/six-million-died-we-still-dont-know-how-pandemic-began/ More bg: https://theintercept.com/2022/10/04/ecohealth-alliance-lab-leak-nih-grant/
