Sosok.ID – The origin of the coronavirus remains an unsolved puzzle.
Many theories have sprung up regarding the origin of the virus which is still a scourge for the citizens of this world.
One of the theories that is quite highlighted is that the corona virus originated from laboratory leak Wuhan, China.
Now the US government is starting to deduce the virus leak hypothesis from the laboratory China of Wuhan plausible and worthy of further investigation, the Wall Street Journal reported Monday (7/6/2021).
The study was prepared in May 2021 by the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California.
Then, referred by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Lawrence Livermore’s assessment draws on the genomic analysis of the Covid-19 virus, reports Wall Street Journal.
Meanwhile, President Joe Biden said last month he had ordered to find answers to the origins of the virus.
US intelligence agencies are considering two possible scenarios.
First the virus was produced from a laboratory accident.
Both arise from human contact with infected animals.
But they have not yet come to a conclusion, Biden said.
An undisclosed US intelligence report circulated during the administration of former President Donald Trump.
Accuses three researchers at China’s Wuhan Institute of Virology of becoming very ill in November 2019.
So they sought hospital treatment, US government sources said.
U.S. officials have accused China of not being transparent about the origins of the virus, an allegation Beijing has denied.

Separately, Mike Ryan, a senior WHO official said it could not be forced China to leak more data about the origins of Covid-19.
He added that he would propose the studies needed to understand where the virus was emerging to the next level.
Earlier this month, U.S. infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci asked China to release the medical records of nine people.
His illness may provide important clues as to whether Covid-19 first emerged as a result of laboratory leak Wuhan.
