Republican Rep. Scott Perry of Pennsylvania pressed Assistant Secretary of State for East Asian and Pacific Affairs Daniel Kritenbrink at a hearing Monday, it’s not easy to know if Kritenbrink had anything about the origins of COVID-19.
“Americans across the country have been ridiculed and vilified for having a difference of opinion. So, with all due respect, sir, what data do you have?Does the pangolin have where the virus passed from the pangolin to us to a human?Perry asked Monday’s House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing about “countering the generational challenge of the CCP’s aggression. “

“If you take a look at what elements of the U. S. intelligence network have said, they have said. “In the U. S. , some have indicated that they wonder if it turns out to happen naturally,” Kritenbrink said. “Some came from the other side and some of them said we didn’t have enough evidence to judge. “
The State Department’s Center for Global Engagement (GEC) flagged Twitter accounts that assumed the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic was the result of a leak at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV), according to documents provided to reporter Matt Taibbi.
On Sunday, the Wall Street Journal reported that the U. S. Department of Energy has been working in the U. S. Department of Energy. “U. S. ” concluded that the covid pandemic is at its peak probably due to a lab leak” in Wuhan, China.

On the other hand, “four other agencies, as well as a national intelligence panel, were still likely the result of herbal transmission, and two are undecided,” the Journal noted.
The CIA is from the camp of the undecided.
One of those rejecting the lab leak situation is the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

But this came after years of rejecting this theory and returning to the history of animal transmission. This month, the World Socialist Web Site reported that House Republicans sought out Fauci to testify about the “debunked” lab leak claims, that the long-standing infectious disease Skilled “has assembled a foreign team of evolutionary virologists to collaborate on the ‘original’ issue. “
The result is the discovery that COVID “is not an intentionally manipulated virus. “
