Ten months after the coronavirus pandemic, but the world has yet to trace the origin of the virus that has hijacked everything imaginable. Experts have mainly speculated that it may have originated from a wet food market in Wuhan, China.
A new twist in the origins of the virus story has left people in shock. Chinese virologist Dr. Li-Meng Yan claimed that the new coronavirus was manufactured in a government-controlled laboratory in Wuhan.
The virologist, who became the whistleblower against the Chinese government for its handling of the coronavirus pandemic, claims that she has evidence that the virus came from a virology laboratory in the city and not from the wet food market.
On Friday, the virologist took part in an interview on the British talk show “Loose Women” from a secret location and spoke about her research on the coronavirus disease.
He claims he was tasked with investigating a group of Sars-like cases from mainland China in December 2019. The chief scientist working in Hong Kong claimed that he discovered a cover-up operation during his investigation and said the Chinese government knew of the spread of the virus before publicly acknowledging it.
“I will show evidence to tell people why this is coming from the lab in China, why they are the ones who did it,” he adds. “Anyone, even if they have no knowledge of biology, will be able to read it and check it, identify it and verify it yourself.”
She adds that the Chinese authorities began to discredit her even before she fled the country to the United States. “They erased all my information and also told people to spread rumors about me,” he said.
