COVID Came from Government Lab In Wuhan: Chinese Scientist

In a stunning revelation, a Chinese virologist has claimed that the coronavirus (COVID) was created in a government-controlled laboratory in Wuhan, the original epicentre of the outbreak.

The scientist also provided scientific evidence to back her claims.

In an exclusive conversation with ''Loose Women'', a British talk show, scientist Dr Li-Meng Yan said she was assigned to investigate "new pneumonia" in Wuhan. She said that she discovered a cover-up operation regarding coronavirus during her investigation.

Dr Li-Meng, who specialised in virology and immunology at the Hong Kong School of Public Health, said she conducted two researches on new pneumonia in China - first between December and early January, and the second one in mid-January, before fleeing to the US from Hong Kong.

"I decided to report this development to my supervisor, who is also a World Health Organisation (WHO) consultant. There was no response from the WHO and my supervisor. Everyone warned me that do not cross the right line and keep silence or else I would be made to disappear," she said.

The virologist said she had expected her supervisor to "do the right thing on behalf of the Chinese government and WHO".

Several countries, including the US, have criticized both China and WHO for covering-up the severity of the COVID outbreak.
