Conversely, if you discover that the cause of the issue was inadequate controls during virus research then you should absolutely start with fixing those.

Put it this way, if the cause of the worldwide pandemic was because it leaked from a lab then you should fix the lab.

Saying this as layman that warned for years about virus engineering, this is just a given. The mere potential should be enough. However, speculation without evidence and mitigation is bad.
