A team of scientists from the World Health Organization (WHO) has just arrived at the home of their four-week stay in Wuhan, China, and is investigating the origin of COVID-19. Their work is already attracting attention.
After Jen Psaki, White House press secretary, said it would be good for American scientists to verify the findings “independently,” one of the team members, Dr. Peter Daszak, partly tweeted: I am disappointed that a statement has come out that undermines the truth of this work even before the report is released. ‘
The criticism comes from all sides. “China has given them very controlled and limited access,” he said. Marty Makary, Johns Hopkins University, told Fox News. ‘And got a report that was unconvincing and supportive [China’s] narration. “
WHICH COMES UNDER FIRE FOR THE CLOSING OF COVID-19 VERY UNScientificly from WUHAN-LABA
The WHO team called the sin on its part ‘robust’. And these are actually some of the preliminary “conclusions” the team reaches, which are noticed.
According to WHO scientists, it is likely that the coronavirus is initially transmitted via a jump from an animal to a human (perhaps starting with a bat, which is associated with the Wuhan seafood market). It is widely believed.
WHICH INVESTIGATION DROPS ON OR COVID-19 VIRUS LEAKED FROM WUHAN-LABA, WHICH CALLS INTEREST THEORY
But they then said there was the “possibility” that the virus could end up in frozen food in Wuhan. This is a story that Beijing is trying to shift the blame for the origin of COVID-19 out of the country.
Furthermore, it is a means of transmission that other scientists have underestimated. A WHO scientist calls the so-called “cold chain” transmission “extremely rare.” Makary suggested that this was ‘scientifically unlikely’.
GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENT SAY ‘JURY STILL OUT’ ON WHOSE WUHAN CORONAVIRUS INVESTIGATION
With the suggestion that the option was a minor possibility, Chinese state media this week described the virus as ‘not geographically bound’.
The WHO team also apparently closed the speculation that the COVID-19 pandemic was the result of a leak from a laboratory in Wuhan. They not only call it ‘extremely unlikely’, but also that it is not worth a further study.
A manufactured virus strain intentionally released on Wuhan is widely rejected. But some experts believe the hypothesis of the accident justifies a second glance. “We’ll have to do a proper investigation,” Makary told Fox News.
Chinese government journals seem to be embarking on this absolution of their labs in the virus, demanding that U.S. labs rather open their doors to inspection and possible foul play.

Considering the delays and constraints on this investigation and the potential PR value for China, critics of the World Health Organization say the investigation should not have been done at all.
“The WHO should not have gone to China,” Makary bluntly said.
But given the deadly scale and scale of this global pandemic, others may agree with Peter Emberek of the WHO team leader when he said that although they did not make a dramatic change in the COVID-19 narrative, ‘ added details to the story ‘.
The WHO says more sins are planned.
