the World Health Organization (WHO)
traveled to Wuhan, China, in order to
discover the origins of the coronavirus.

it was leaked from a lab in Wuhan.
The findings suggest that the laboratory incidents hypothesis is extremely unlikely to explain the introduction of the virus to the
human population, Peter Ben Embarek, WHO, via AP News.
The lab-leak theory was one that was
propagated by former President Donald Trump.
China officials have
rebuked the theory. .
The team of WHO investigators reported that they were
granted a higher level of access than expected
to examine possible locations of the beginning of the outbreak.
