Nothing has been proven yet with respect to the origins of Covid-19. The theory that Covid-19 might have leaked from a lab in Wuhan, China, is only one possibility. Much more research and investigation need to be done. We don’t know yet.
Except, we do know. We know that, instead of the lab leak theory being so absolutely false that Facebook wouldn’t even let it be mentioned and would take down posts that talked about it, it’s now a possibility.1 It’s definitely not for sure. But it is, apparently, something that could have happened. Which means we know what we need to do.
Now that we know a lab leak was possible, we know we have to make sure it doesn’t happen in the future – because a pandemic from a lab leak in the future could be much worse than this pandemic, regardless of where this one came from.

1 I wonder what is different now, versus last year, when Facebook wouldn’t let the lab leak theory be mentioned.
