COVID-19: Disturbing report released by the USA
- A total of 520 pages dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic have just been published by a special sub-committee of the US Congress led by elected Republicans. Some Democrats are also said to have taken part in the drafting process.
The article from MSN discusses a report released by the U.S. House of Representatives' Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic, which has raised concerns about the origins of the COVID-19 virus. The report suggests that there is significant evidence pointing towards a lab leak in Wuhan, China, as the source of the virus, rather than a natural zoonotic spillover. It highlights the involvement of the EcoHealth Alliance and the Wuhan Institute of Virology in gain-of-function research, which could have potentially led to the accidental release of the virus. The report criticizes the lack of transparency from both Chinese authorities and the involved research institutions, and calls for more stringent oversight of such research. It also mentions the political and scientific debate surrounding the lab leak theory, which has been contentious since the early days of the outbreak.
