We’ve been trying to find the zoonotic origin of Ebola for decades without any success. We don’t have anywhere near a complete catalog of animal diseases, and of those only a fraction have been sequenced.

We didn’t have the same confluence of other circumstantial evidence we do in this case. There’s no good reason to think Ebola came from a lab.

The point isn't "Ebola came from a lab" but rather "the fact that we can't pin down a natural origin doesn't prove it's man-made."

It doesn't prove anything, but it shifts the balance of evidence.
