Or being the driving force of the hysteria from day one?
If our societies exhibited male courage, we would just ignore it and nothing would have happened. Hell, the only reason they were doing the research in the first place was because they were scared of a virus that didn't even exist yet.
Or being the driving force of the hysteria from day one?
To be fair, this is partly on men for being a bunch of wusses. "A woman made me do it" is a tale as old as time, and that well-known story in a well-known book about this is meant, in my mind, to be a call for men to not blindly follow what a woman says, and to not expect that "I was just listening to a woman" would be any excuse when the reckoning comes.
Nature has had tens of thousands of years to develop a virus capable of wiping out humanity, to no avail. The absolute worst thing we could do is help create such a virus under the pretext of "understanding it".
On the other hand, if your goal is to depopulate the planet in order to preserve its resources for you and your elite friends, you would certainly try to frame your efforts as benevolent, protective, and cautionary.
Always assume everyone is always acting in their own particular self-interest.
Then the next time Fauci approaches congress and says "I want to make an apocalypse virus, just for funsies" and they deny him, so he sneaks off to China to do it anyways, you have a clear baseline motivation present: This action clearly benefits him personally greatly.
And then he drags the rest of the world down, to pull himself higher.
