"But a fatally flawed investigation by the World Health Organization and Chinese officials and experts only muddies the waters, and it places the WHO further at odds with the U.S. government and the Biden administration."
"The Chinese government received the report in advance and had tightly controlled the investigators’ visit to Wuhan, where the outbreak originated and where labs hold the world’s largest collection of bat coronaviruses."
"Even before..report was issued,..Biden administration publicly questioned its objectivity and credibility. 'We’ve got real concerns about..methodology and..process that went into that report, including the fact that..Beijing..helped..write it'" Secretary of State..Blinken said"
"US intelligence, confirmed by Blinken’s..State Department, alleges..WIV was conducting undisclosed research on bat coronaviruses, had secret research projects with..Chinese military, and failed to disclose..several lab workers got sick with covid-like symptoms in autumn 2019."
"The Biden administration is not claiming the lab-accident theory is correct, but it is calling for China to disclose more information about the labs."
