WHO says it has no evidence to support ‘speculative’ Covid-19 lab theory
Health body says any ‘aggressive investigation of wrongdoing’ regarding virus origins makes understanding it harder
The World Health Organization says the United States government has not given any evidence to support Trump administration officials’ “speculative” claim that Covid-19 originated in a Wuhan lab, as China dismissed the theory as “insane”.
Donald Trump has repeatedly said that he has proof the virus originated in a laboratory in Wuhan – whereas scientists believe it jumped from animals to humans at a wet market in the city last year.
