I am yet to see a single piece of evidence which rules out the lab leak hypothesis. Meanwhile the circumstantial evidence in favour of that hypothesis (including China’s behaviour) continues to pile up. We may never discover the truth, but I really hope we do.

There's also evidence pointing to the theory that the virus didn't originate in China and came in on frozen food being false - in particular, the fact that when traces of virus have been found at frozen food processing facilities the evidence pointed to it being caused by the outbreak there rather than vice-versa, the lack of major outbreaks causing hospitals to collapse in other countries at the same time as Wuhan, and the current scientific consensus being that contact with surfaces isn't even a major source of transmission anyway. That didn't stop the WHO team from pushing the idea that this is plausible and needs investigating. The only thing their positions have in common is that they're following the Chinese government line.
