Over the last few years, governments, scientists, investigators, and various organisations have been trying to find the origin of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Several theories have cropped up, but conclusive evidence has been difficult to come by so far. Now, a new report into the origin of the pandemic has claimed that Chinese scientists were working on a secret project at the infamous Wuhan lab before COVID-19 hit the world.
According to an investigation by The Sunday Times, scientists in Wuhan were working in collaboration with Chinese military researchers to combine the world's most deadly viruses.
It adds that the experiment may have caused a leak from the Wuhan Institute of Virology, which led to the novel coronavirus outbreak.
The publication claims that it analysed hundreds of documents, including confidential reports, internal memos, scientific papers, and email correspondence, for its investigative report. MORE AT .Wuhan scientists and Chinese military created Covid-19, reveals shocking report (ibtimes.co.uk)
