The CIA released its report on the spread of Covid-19 on Saturday.
The American intelligence agency Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has expressed suspicion that the Corona virus was prepared in a lab. In this report released on Saturday, China has been held responsible for Covid-19. It has also been said that there is not enough evidence.
This report was prepared on the orders of the Biden administration and former CIA director William Burns. It was made public on Saturday on the orders of John Ratcliffe, who became CIA director in the Trump administration.
According to the report of AP, even before this, in many reports the suspicion of spread of Corona virus from China’s lab was raised. In many reports, it was claimed that it had spread naturally. This report has not been prepared on the basis of any new intelligence information.
70 lakh people lost their lives worldwide due to Covid.
Virus controversy once again in discussion due to report
The controversy related to the spread of the virus has once again come into discussion due to the CIA report. This report has been prepared on the basis of new analysis of the spread of the virus, its scientific characteristics and the work done in China’s virology lab.
Intelligence officials say that due to China’s lack of cooperation, this mystery will probably never be completely solved. US lawmakers have put pressure on intelligence agencies to provide more information about the origin of Covid-19.
This issue is very special from the point of view of American and global politics, because the world is still grappling with its effects. Republican Senator Tom Cotton, chairman of the US Senate Intelligence Committee, praised Ratcliffe on Saturday for making the report public.
Cotton also supported this theory.
China called the allegations baseless and politically motivated
China has described the American allegations and any speculation regarding the origin of Covid-19 as baseless and politically motivated. On Saturday, Chinese Embassy spokesperson Liu Pengyu issued a statement saying,
We strongly oppose the politicization and stigmatization of the origin of the virus. We appeal to everyone to respect science and stay away from conspiracy theories.
Scientists believe that the corona virus may have been spread by bats. Even before this, other viruses like Corona were spread by bats. It later spread to raccoon dogs, civet cats or bamboo rats, which were found in a market in Wuhan. After this it must have reached humans. In late 2019, cases of the virus spreading among humans were reported.
Later, in many reports, questions were raised about the spread of Corona from the lab of Wuhan, China. Two years ago, the US Department of Energy in its report considered the lab leak theory as the most accurate.
Ratcliffe had also supported the theory of lab leak as CIA director during Trump’s first term.
