WASHINGTON – United States intelligence agencies found no direct evidence that the Covid-19 pandemic stemmed from an incident at China’s Wuhan Institute of Virology, a report declassified on Friday said.
“The Central Intelligence Agency and another agency remain unable to determine the precise origin of the Covid-19 pandemic, as both hypotheses rely on significant assumptions or face challenges with conflicting reporting,” the ODNI report said. “We continue to have no indication that the WIV’s pre-pandemic research holdings included Sars-CoV-2 or a close progenitor, nor any direct evidence that a specific research-related incident occurred involving WIV personnel before the pandemic that could have caused the Covid-19 pandemic,” the report said.
Mr Biden said at the time of signing that he shared Congress’ goal of releasing as much information as possible about the origin of Covid-19.
