(Worthy News) – Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and chief medical adviser to President Joe Biden, said COVID-19 could have been created in a lab and then leaked into the public.

Fauci’s comments Thursday are just the latest but perhaps most definitive statement he has made expressing openness to the lab leak theory as he prepares to retire at the end of the month, although he also said an animal-to-human spillover was the most likely scenario.

“There’s also the possibility, and that’s the reason why we all need to keep an open mind that we don’t know precisely what the origin is, it could have been something like studying a virus that they got out of the environment and perhaps … leaked out into the community,” Fauci said in an interview with the Washington Post on Tuesday. “I don’t think that’s what happened but my mind is completely open to any possibility.” [ Source: Washington Examiner (Read More…) ]
