Whether the corona was transmitted from animal bodies to humans, or whether it was spread in a Chinese laboratory – the exact source of the coronavirus may never be known. That’s according to a report released by the US Central Intelligence Agency on Friday. The report further states that there is no clear evidence that corona has been injected into the human body for use as a biological weapon.
At the end of 2019, the first corona was identified in the human body in Wuhan, China. Later, the deadly virus spread beyond China to the rest of the world. The World Health Organization (WHO) declared corona a global epidemic last year. About 5 million people around the world have died of corona so far.
From the beginning, Western countries, including the United States, have blamed China for spreading corona. They allege that Corona was leaked from Wuhan’s laboratory. And China has kept this information secret from the world. In response, Beijing has said that corona has spread naturally in the human body. A WHO delegation visited Wuhan to investigate the allegations. However, the experts could not reach a final decision. The exact source of the corona is not yet known.
In this situation, the dilemma of international experts about the source of the corona has not been resolved. A report released Friday from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODSI) in the United States said the exact source of the corona may never be known. There are two opinions among experts on this. But they were not able to take a stand in favor of any one opinion.
The report goes on to say that Corona has spread around the world as a biological weapon – a claim many claim. There is no clear evidence behind such a claim. None of those who said so went to Uhan’s laboratory to investigate. They do not have direct access there. They are spreading wrong information.
Earlier, a report on the source of the corona was prepared by US intelligence for US President Joe Biden. It was published last August. The ODSI released the report on Friday as an update to the report. According to a section of the country’s intelligence, corona is spread naturally by animals. This has been seen in recent times. Over the past few months, there has been evidence of widespread and normal corona spread among wildlife in different countries.
However, the idea that the corona came from an animal to a human was objected to by an alliance of at least four US intelligence agencies and a number of other agencies. However, they could not present strong evidence in support of their own claim in this regard. According to an intelligence agency, the corona may have been spread in the human body due to carelessness during the examination of the animal’s body in Uhan’s laboratory.
However, international experts and US intelligence agencies have agreed that details of the source of the corona may remain elusive if no new data is available. The main obstacle in this case is the lack of opportunity to test the preserved samples of the patients with early Covid-19. Given this opportunity by the Chinese government to international experts, the way to know more about the source of corona in the human body can be a little wider.
Meanwhile, the WHO called on China to further cooperate in investigating the source of the coronavirus. The agency has formed a new task force to investigate the matter. The WHO says the task force is to find out how Corona got its start. This is the last chance for the task force to find the source of the corona.
