WHO urged to take fair stance on COVID origins by China and scientists.
TL;DR Summary
Chinese health officials defended their search for the origin of COVID-19 and criticized the World Health Organization (WHO) for suggesting that Beijing should have shared genetic information earlier. The WHO's comments were deemed "offensive and disrespectful" by the director of the China Center for Disease Control and Prevention. The origins of COVID-19 are still debated, with some scientists believing it jumped from animals to humans at a market in Wuhan, while others suggest it may have leaked from a laboratory.
