Pompeo casts doubt on WHO-China coronavirus origins inquiry and defends Wuhan lab intelligence
(Worthy News) – Mike Pompeo cast doubt on the credibility of the recent WHO-China investigation into the origins of COVID-19 ahead of its expected report release as the former secretary of state defended the declassified intelligence that seemingly points toward the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
Officials from both the Trump and Biden administrations have said that the Chinese government worked to thwart investigations into the origins of the virus, which has killed 2.69 million worldwide, and the WHO-China report is slated to be released next week. Both administrations said China was not transparent and is still concealing key data. Congressional reports have blamed China’s duplicity and the World Health Organization’s incompetence for an outbreak becoming a pandemic.
A State Department fact sheet released in mid-January contended that Wuhan lab researchers “conducted experiments involving RaTG13, the bat coronavirus identified by the WIV in January 2020 as its closest sample to SARS-CoV-2 (96.2% similar)” and that the lab “has a published record of conducting ‘gain-of-function’ research to engineer chimeric viruses.” The fact sheet added that the lab “has engaged in classified research, including laboratory animal experiments, on behalf of the Chinese military.” [ Source: Washington Examiner (Read More…) ]
