I read the article you cited. I still don't see anything in there from an identified government spokesman that the US government believes it "is likely to be true" that the virus came from a lab in Wuhan. In fact, discussing the unidentified sources, the article said as follows
The only place the word "likely" is used is in the headline.
As far as I can tell, the logic chain is as follows: The flu was first reported in Wuhan in late 2019. There is a bio-lab near Wuhan. The bio-lab studied bat viruses. In 2018, some criticized the lab for the lack of properly trained technicians. The Chinese government lies. Therefore, the coronavius came from the lab.
That is not much different than me observing that there is a plane flying over my house. Bradley Airport is about 50 miles from my house. Planes fly out of Bradley. Sometimes they fly over my house. Therefore the plane came from Bradley. Maybe it did, but since there are numerous other airports in the vicinity, some even closer than Bradley, it is equally likely that it could have come from one of them.
Maybe the virus did originate in the bio-lab, but based on the evidence presented so far, I don't think anyone could conclude that or even say it is "likely". If actual evidence of causation is unearthed, then I would change my position. But right now it is inference by people who have a strong incentive to do anything to deflect from how pathetic our national response to this has been.
And, even if the the virus came from that lab near Wuhan, how does that confirm that it was in the US prior to January 20, 2020? More importantly, how does that help us address the issue of asymptomatic cases in the context of recovering our economy?
