FBI Director Christopher Wray tells Fox’s @BretBaier...

The origins of the pandemic are most likely a potential lab incident in Wuhan. Let me step back for a second. The FBI has folks — agents, professionals, analysts, virologists, microbiologists, etc. — who focus specifically on the dangers of biological threats, which include things like novel viruses like Covid. And the concerns that they’re in the wrong hands — some bad guys, a hostile nation-state a terrorist or criminal — the threats that those could pose.

So here you're talking about a potential leak from a Chinese government-controlled lab that killed millions of Americans and that's precisely what that capability was designed for. I should add that our work related to this continues. And there are not a whole lot of details I can share that aren’t classified. I will just make the observation that the Chinese government, it seems to me, has been doing its best to try to thwart and obfuscate the work that we’re doing.

      and just saw this mentioned as well:

      Fort Detrick made headlines in 2008 when Army biologist Bruce Edwards Ivins died of suicide at his base after learning that he would be named a suspect in the 2001 anthrax attack. He was never formally charged with posting letters that killed five people. ProPublica reported in 2011 that there were some doubts as to whether Ivins was the perpetrator.
