	Description:		Since the outbreak started, we’ve been hearing that this coronavirus came from bats before jumping to humans. But recently, claims that the virus escaped from a lab have been getting a lot of attention. So did it? Is there an evil scientist behind all of this? To find out, we talk to microbiologist Dr. Benhur Lee, Christian Stevens, and virologist Dr. Oscar MacLean. Also: FROGS!!
