The Office of the Director of National Intelligence has announced today that U.S. spy agencies agree with ‘wide scientific consensus that the new coronavirus was ‘not manmade or genetically modified’.
“The entire Intelligence Community has been consistently providing critical support to U.S. policymakers and those responding to the COVID-19 virus, which originated in China,” a statement said. “The Intelligence Community also concurs with the wide scientific consensus that the COVID-19 virus was not manmade or genetically modified.”
But the statement added they are still examining whether the origins of the pandemic trace to contact with infected animals or an accident at a Chinese lab.
