Facebook has decided that its users may now suggest that COVID-19 was man-made without getting their posts banned, in a reversal from previous policy as the theory that the virus was cooked up in a Wuhan lab gains traction. What are the details?
The social media giant told Politico Wednesday that it would no longer take down posts claiming the coronavirus was manufactured, in what the outlet reported was “a move that acknowledges the renewed debate about the virus’ origins.”
The outlet reported: Facebook announced in February it had expanded the list of misleading health claims that it would remove from its platforms to include those asserting that “COVID-19 is man-made or manufactured.” The tech giant has updated its policies against false and misleading coronavirus information, including its running list of debunked claims , over the course of the pandemic in consultation with global health officials. The move draws further scrutiny over whether “fact-checking” and post regulation from the social media giant has been political in nature, as Facebook has infamously flagged and even punished users for questioning COVID-19-related policies and rhetoric.
Former President Donald Trump and others have long suggested COVID was leaked from China’s Wuhan Institute of Virology, an idea that was dismissed by several in mainstream media for months as a conspiracy theory.
A New York Times COVID reporter even tweeted Wednesday, “Someday we will stop talking about the lab leak theory and maybe even admit its racist roots. But alas, that day is not yet here.”
But after The Wall Street Journal reported earlier this week that multiple workers at the Wuhan lab fell sick with symptoms related to COVID-19 in November of 2019, the mainstream media and others resistant to the lab-leak idea started changing their tunes.
Dr. Anthony Fauci, who previously dismissed theories that the virus came from the lab in Wuhan, did a complete reversal — calling for an investigation into the origins of COVID and admitting he is “not convinced” that the disease emerged naturally, as he has long maintained.

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
