In that context, the U.S. has announced that it is investigating the ‘shady’ lab to determine whether or not the virus was a humanmade biological weapon. In its defense, the head of the lab spoke out publicly denying all notions that Covid-19 was created there. The vice director at the lab, Yuan Zhiming, explained: Zhiming said that the lab has a strict regulatory regime and code of conduct of research. Thus, they are confident that the virus did not originate from their lab.
Accusations
President Donald Trump has, on numerous occasions, called coronavirus the ‘China virus’. He even said that he had obtained evidence that gave him a ‘high degree of confidence’ to say that the health crisis started accidentally at the Wuhan lab. The Wuhan Institute of Virology shut down for some time last October, according to NBC News documents. That shut down may indicate that there might have been some form of a ‘hazardous event’ happening. Many officials said: Analysts are carefully examining what was collected between October and November 2019. They are looking for signs that indicate any anomalies at the lab. President Trump has continuously insisted that China ignored or hid vital information about the virus. He has repeatedly demanded that Beijing should be held ‘accountable’ for the current crisis.
