WASHINGTON, Feb 27 — The coronavirus pandemic likely arose from a Chinese laboratory leak, the US Department of Energy now says according to media, although the White House maintained yesterday that American intelligence remained divided on the issue.
The conclusion, reportedly the result of new intelligence, is nevertheless significant because the department oversees a network of national laboratories, including some that do advanced biological research. Four US intelligence agencies believe Covid occurred through natural transmission, while two others remain undecided, the Journal reported.
“Right now, there is not a definitive answer that has emerged from the intelligence community on this question,” he told CNN Sunday.
