The WHO on Thursday urged China to share raw data from the earliest COVID-19 cases to advance the pandemic origins probe -- and release data to address the lab leak theory.
In a statement on advancing the next series of studies to find the origins of SARS-CoV-2, the WHO said it was "vitally important" to know how the coronavirus pandemic began. The WHO said it was working with several countries that reported detection of SARS-CoV-2 in samples from stored biological specimens from 2019.
But after reading the report, WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said the probe into Wuhan's virology labs had not gone far enough."China and a number of other member states have written to WHO regarding the basis for further studies of the SARS-CoV-2 'lab hypothesis'," the WHO said.
Did WHO wink at China while saying this?
