Huh? The previous President of the US frequently called it the "China Virus".
> GOP conspiracy to bring down Biden
Biden wasn't President for the first year of the pandemic, not sure how that works out.
> Are American progressives so fragile in their identity that they avoid agreeing with conservatives for fear of guilt by association?
I personally don't care whether the virus was man-made or natural. It bares next to zero importance on my life. At the end of the day what are we really arguing about? Lab practices in China? The Chinese should be better about lab safety and wet markets. But there was a pandemic which has killed millions of people. It seems like the people most invested in this question are also the ones most invested in downplaying the pandemic, which is just evil.

That's really surprising to me, because in my opinion the answer truly does matter, and sticking my head in the sand feels defeatist. I suppose that's a difference of opinions, though.
How does it really matter though? What are in the Western world going to do in retaliation? Are we going to start a war with China over their bio-lab programs?
