It’s been almost two years since the coronavirus pandemic began, and we still do not know how the outbreak started. For a long time no one with serious credentials considered a lab leak as a possibility. A much less extravagant version of the cold food market looked indisputable - but not for Alina Chan, a postdoc researcher at the Broad Institute in Cambridge, Massachussetts.

Chan’s actions lead to a major shift of consensus last spring: the lab leak is now considered much less of conspiracy theory but something that demands a serious investigation. On this episode I speak with Chan to hear her side of the story. What initially caught her eye? How did she manage to get world renown scientists’ support? Why is she getting harassed on the Internet? And what should we all do?
