Talk is heating up that legal action over COVID's origins could finally hit, though no one has been held responsible yet.

• New reporting is again pointing to the lab-leak theory as a likely source of COVID.
• Frustration is growing that no one has faced accountability years after the pandemic.
• China is accused of dodging blame and getting away with it.
• Lawsuits are expected to follow, with David Morens already indicted.

Outlook: Expect more legal pressure and lab-leak claims, but real accountability still looks unlikely soon.
