WHO finds no proof that COVID was created in Wuhan lab

A member of the #WHO team sent to China to probe the origins of #Covid19 in the country has shrugged off Washington’s demand to verify the mission’s findings, saying US intelligence on the matter should be viewed with skepticism. The World Health Organization (WHO) expert team held a press conference on Tuesday to reveal their findings after spending four weeks in Wuhan, the Chinese city where the first case of the coronavirus was reported back in December 2019. According to their investigation, there is currently no evidence to support the theory that the virus leaked from a laboratory in Wuhan, a claim put forward by former US secretary of state Mike Pompeo, among others. The team also said that it was likely that the disease was transmitted to humans from animals, although there was no direct link backing the theory that it came from bats. MORE: Follow us on Telegram
