More evidence emerges suggesting coronavirus originated in Wuhan lab

Coronavirus in China

More evidence has emerged which supportthe theory that coronavirus originated in a virology lab in Wuhan in China.

The Washington Times says that the Wuhan lab is the "most likely" source of the coronavirus. This claim is part of an unfinished document which is based on circumstantial evidence that is available in public. This document is part of an investigation which is underway in the United States.

Professor Petr Chumakov has said, "In China, scientists at the Wuhan laboratory have been actively involved in the development of various coronaviruses for over ten years. They did absolutely crazy things, in my opinion. "

The Wuhan Institute of Virology, also known as Asia's biggest virus lab, was among the first to receive samples from patients infected by the Wuhan coronavirus.

There are many who claim that this lab is actually the source of this virus.

More than three months after its first cases were reported, the origin of the coronavirus remains unknown.Wuhan, the original epicentre of this pandemic, still remains cut off from the outside world.

China has opposed any idea of an independent investigation into this outbreak, but these attempts to escape scrutiny are only hurting the Communist party.

US President Donald Trump has been publicly blaming China for the global spread of the "invisible enemy" and launched an investigation against it

Leaders of the US, the UK and Germany believe that the deaths and the destruction of the global economy could have been avoided, had China shared the information about the virus in its early phases.

The virus, which originated in China's Wuhan city in mid-November, has killed more than two lakh people and infected over three million globally.
