There’s actually a tread in r/medicine about this. It starts out trying to discredit the statement by DOE and then they learn that it is well within the department’s scope.
Then a supposed DOE scientist (who is a rabid pro-vaxx shill) comes in to verify that they do work on this stuff, but the article is bunk and that it “is NOT the consensus at the DOE” that any deviation from the narrative is true.
The whole thread is a clear panic move to tamp down the lab leak theory.
