https://www.foxnews.com/politics/coronavirus-wuhan-lab-china-compete-us-sources EXCLUSIVE: COVID-19 originated in a Wuhan laboratory not as a bioweapon, but as part of China's effort to demonstrate that its efforts to identify and combat viruses are equal to or greater than the capabilities of the United States, multiple sources who have been briefed on the details of early actions by China's government and seen relevant materials tell Fox News. This may be the "costliest government coverup of all time," one of the sources said. The sources believe the initial transmission of the virus was bat-to-human, and that "patient zero" worked at the laboratory, then went into the population in Wuhan. CLICK HERE FOR COMPLETE CORONAVIRUS COVERAGE Asked by Fox News' John Roberts about the reporting, President Trump remarked at Wednesday's coronavirus press briefing, "More and more we're hearing the story...we are doing a very thorough examination of this horrible situation." Documents detail early efforts by doctors at the lab and early efforts at containment. The Wuhan wet market initially identified as a possible point of origin never sold bats, and the sources tell Fox News that blaming the wet market was an effort by China to deflect blame from the laboratory, along with the country's propaganda efforts targeting the U.S. and Italy. U.S. Embassy officials warned in January 2018 about inadequate safety at the Wuhan Institute of Virology lab and passed on information about scientists conducting risky research on coronavirus from bats, The Washington Post reported Tuesday.

Responding to the report, Gen. Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said Tuesday afternoon: "It should be no surprise to you that we have taken a keen interest in that and we've had a lot of intelligence take a hard look at that. I would just say at this point, it's inconclusive, although the weight of evidence seems to indicate natural, but we don't know for certain." Americans were originally helping train the Chinese in a program called PREVENT well before the Chinese started working on this virus. The French government helped the Chinese set up the Wuhan lab. China "100 percent" suppressed data and changed data, the sources tell Fox News. Samples were destroyed, contaminated areas scrubbed, some early reports erased, and academic articles stifled. STATE DEPT LEAKED CABLES RENEW THEORIES ON ORIGINS OF CORONAVIRUS There were doctors and journalists who were "disappeared" warning of the spread of the virus and its contagious nature and human to human transmission. China moved quickly to shut down travel domestically from Wuhan to the rest of China, but did not stop international flights from Wuhan. Additionally, the sources tell Fox News the World Health Organization (WHO) was complicit from the beginning in helping China cover its tracks. Trumpannounced at the White House coronavirus news briefing in the Rose Garden on Tuesday that the United States will immediately halt all funding for the WHO, saying it had put "political correctness over lifesaving measures." The United States is the WHO's largest single donor, and the State Department had previously planned to provide the agency $893 million in the current two-year funding period. Senior administrations separately tell Fox News the rollout of the president’s “blueprint for re-opening the U.S. economy” will happen Thursday afternoon, first for governors and then briefed to the press.

Meanwhile, Trump's own handling of the crisis has come into focus. On January 24, for example, Trump tweeted in praise of China’s “transparency" on coronavirus. Though they were not speaking for the president, the sources ventured an explanation, saying it was diplomatic talk to make the Chinese "feel good". while the investigation was ongoing, with trade and other talks happening simultaneously. In the six days after top Chinese officials secretly determined they likely were facing a pandemic from a new coronavirus, the city of Wuhan at the epicenter of the disease hosted a mass banquet for tens of thousands of people; millions began traveling through for Lunar New Year celebrations. TRUMP CUTS ALL WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION FUNDING President Xi Jinping warned the public on the seventh day, Jan. 20. But by that time, more than 3,000 people had been infected during almost a week of public silence. “This is tremendous,” said Zuo-Feng Zhang, an epidemiologist at the University of California, Los Angeles. “If they took action six days earlier, there would have been much fewer patients and medical facilities would have been sufficient. We might have avoided the collapse of Wuhan’s medical system.” Fox News' Barnini Chakraborty and The Associated Press contributed to this report.
This is a big news. The only question is how reliable of the “sources” cited in the article. Bottom line is, America government is awaken for a throughout investigation.

能看懂英语新闻的还是少数啊，哈哈，这篇文章实际上糅合了两篇文章，一篇是wapo的那篇opinion，另一篇是ap的报道。前者属于扑风捉影，后者则是实锤，因为拿到了内部文件，证明中央政府在得知疫情可以人传人之后等待了六天才宣布。现在看来，这的确是重大失误。当然你可以辩驳说这是新病毒，需要全盘考虑如何如何，就看你的屁股在哪里了。
只要把那段时间华人的帖子找出来梳理一下，就可以给歪歌立碑了
赞成！歪歌最早出来给我们吹哨的
哪里说故意泄露了？是cover up吧
PW要挂？
这个coverup太混了
可以建生祠
不会有下一位了，等等看吧，总加速师把ccp的车开到悬崖了，刹不住了，上帝给ccp的时间到了。最后的疯狂之后就是ccp的灭亡了
美国哪里说中国制造了？
不好说啊，饿死三千万后还有很多人喊万岁呢
说错了吧，全世界人民都说病毒是强国造的。只有强国人民甩锅说是美国造的。现在美国人民终于回击了。
这个么，你真觉得你的逻辑没问题？就像街坊四邻都说你亲爹是隔壁老王。隔壁老王甩锅说你就是你爹亲生。你爹现在跳出来回击说你确实是隔壁老王的。好像哪里不对吧。
是你的逻辑错乱了吧
你娘生了个怪物，街坊四邻议论纷纷。然后你爹说隔壁老王才是你亲爹。隔壁老王反击说他从未碰过你娘，你爹就是你亲爹。街坊四邻会相信谁？
covering up of spreading is another way of release virus on purpose.
我认为是covering up accidental leak from the lab
生物武器不可能给自己插刀吧，而且明显一开始对病毒的传染性不了解，也没有解药
说中国不可能拿生物武器给自己插刀就是恶毒？你觉得中国会给自己上生物武器？到底谁恶毒？
你脑子里想什么，看到的别人就怎样。
上班的电脑，input不好，就算input好也会有typo。我不过一不小心把“可能” typo变成”吭你“，看你留言才知道有typo，完全没有意思的两个字根本不成句子都看不出来？这就能让你心里的恶毒泛滥？
这位同学，我怕了你了
可能还没在高等一点的动物身上实验，根本不知道新冠的传染性这么强，还有这么多无症状
你什么时候见过中国下面的单位向上报告自己的问题了？刚开始肯定是不了解病毒危害，然后层层级级隐瞒，希望能混过去。最后瞒不过去了，就报到北京。
从时间上看，
十一月从lab 漏出，单位压着不报，想混过去；
十二月当地医院发现感染病人，报到武汉市委被压下。 这从一月份李医生被悔改，武汉举行万人宴可以看到；
一月份中旬武汉情况失控，当地只好报到北京；这个武汉市长公开说过。
一月下旬，在得到湖北疫情汇报几乎一周后，北京下令武汉封城。这些可以从官媒报道，央视春晚，以及习近平到处走访，不提武汉一个字等，推断出来了。
基因编辑的婴儿现在怎么样了
不会3派专家组去的，除非这个研究所是独立的，和国务院平行，否则很难解释连唔3次。
何况土共也有军情机构，情报机构，这么大的事情，不可能从12月初到1月20号才这样。
既然大家现在都在猜是不是实验室泄露，当官的，情报机构自然也都会想到这个问题。必然会查。难道真会一直被武汉那边瞒着？可能性有，但不大。
唯一的解释就是军事系统的病毒研究机构泄漏的。
病毒不是石正丽泄露的，但石正丽肯定知道是谁泄漏的。
我也想知道后续
