"WIV was classified as a “secret institute”, so its audits were only available to specially authorised employees...“We signed a privacy agreement with the Wuhan institute so documents relating to lab audits cannot usually be shared with third parties”"

"Koblentz said the search should include an independent audit of all labs in Wuhan working on bat coronaviruses and researching Sars, given the deaths and global disruption caused by the pandemic, and most importantly the threat of a repeat."

"Koblentz, the biosecurity specialist, said it was unusual for (WIV) database to be taken offline and never restored, as cybersecurity breaches were usually fixed after companies or government agencies detected a hacking attack."

“Cutting off researchers from this database that had such high demand previously is not consistent with the way governments and labs usually run their operations,” Koblentz said.

"Raina MacIntyre, head of biosecurity research at the University of New South Wales’ Kirby Institute in Australia, said that if a lab accident were truly the source of the pandemic, the entire system of global regulation surrounding virology research would face seismic changes."

"Lentzos suggested that passing a motion in the United Nations General Assembly would be another way of pressuring China into granting more access to an international investigative team, which she said needed to include people capable of inspecting laboratories."
