"Independent reporter Jimmy Tobias weighs in on emails from the NIH that reveal an effort to rule out lab leak as a theory behind Covid-19's origin. "
The video talks about the final unredacted documents concerning the first talk and investigation of Covid.

The documents don't really show the thought process behind them eventually going with the Evolutionary theory of the virus (that it somehow developed from nature) rather than it being some kind of manmade creation. Basically, if you distrust Fauci, believe decisions were made for political and personal reasons etc. (as I do) then there is plenty of reasoning to continue on with that.

"What were Andersen’s concerns? And why were they so dire they might merit a call to the FBI?
Andersen laid them out plainly in an email to Fauci that same evening. “The unusual features of the virus make up a really small part of the genome (<0.1%) so one has to look really closely at all the sequences to see that some of the features (potentially) look engineered,” Andersen wrote in the email. “I should mention,” he added, “that after discussions earlier today, Eddie, Bob, Mike and myself all find the genome inconsistent with expectations from evolutionary theory. But we have to look at this much more closely and there are still further analyses to be done, so those opinions could still change.”
Thus began a scramble to probe in private the origin of SARS-CoV-2...." Quote

Unredacted NIH Emails Show Efforts to Rule Out Lab Origin of Covid
Virologists close to the NIH initially believed the Covid virus could be genetically engineered. Unredacted emails show how their thinking evolved.
