The official Chinese media report it, but now China is in the crosshairs of the world and Trump announces a report. "I think the Chinese" made a mistake: "they tried to hide it but they failed", says the American president, specifying that China allowed the coronavirus to spread "in our country and in other countries. Xi Jinping he's a good person but it should never have happened. " Trump announces that an American report on coronavirus and China will be released shortly.
"We can learn from Chinese scientists and exchange knowledge" but if this "becomes an aggressive investigation into wrong behavior then it is a political problem, not a scientific one. Science must be at the center and scientific research on the origins of the virus would be of benefit to all, "said WHO chief emergency officer Mike Ryan, answering a question about Mike Pompeo's thesis about the alleged origin in a Chinese coronavirus laboratory.
"From all the tests seen, more than 15,000 genetic sequences, I believe that this virus is of animal origin," stressed WHO's Dr. Maria Van Kerkhove, regarding the statements by the Secretary of State that the virus may have been born in the Chinese laboratory. "There is a connection with bats - he said -, we must understand the intermediate guest".
