Where Did Coronavirus Originate From? by JosEast(m): 6:09am On May 03, 2020 |
UK says there are ‘questions that need to be answered’ after Donald Trump claims evidence Downing Street said there are ‘questions that need to be answered’ about the origin of coronavirus after Donald Trump claimed to have seen evidence it came from a laboratory in the Chinese city of Wuhan. The US President made the explosive claim on Thursday night but refused to reveal what the evidence was. Number 10 would not be drawn on the specifics of Mr Trump’s comments but again reiterated its desire for an international probe into the start of the outbreak. UK scientific experts blasted Mr Trump for his claim as they said there is ‘no such evidence’ and accused the US President of using the ‘narrative that best suits his political position’. They also said the scientific community had ‘very much moved on’ from the idea the disease may have been created in a lab and that it is ‘unhelpful for high-profile individuals to repeat the debunked conspiracy theories’. It came as the World Health Organisation (WHO) said it would like to take part in Chinese investigations into the origins of the disease. The UN agency said it was hoping for an invitation from Beijing to take part in its probe into how the disease originated in animals, then jumped to humans. Mr Trump told reporters that he had seen evidence that coronavirus started in a Wuhan virology laboratory as he then warned he could impose tariffs of $1 trillion on China in retribution for the pandemic. But US intelligence has said it had found no evidence the virus was man-made or genetically modified in a lab. Asked if Boris Johnson agreed with Mr Trump, the Prime Minister’s official spokesman said: ‘There are clearly questions that need to be answered about the origin and spread of the virus, not least so we can ensure that we are better prepared for future global pandemics.

What wrong with Trump. You saw evidence that the virus originated from a lab, but refuse to show us your evidence or take any action. A president behaving like a mere conspiracy theorist. |
