Why politicise the origin of the virus?
The World Health Organization (WHO) expert team recently concluded its investigation trip in China and held a detailed press conference.
Some people in the West originally hoped to use WHO’s trip to trace the origin of the virus to hold China accountable, but instead WHO experts felt clear trust, openness, and cooperation in China. Moreover, these experts refuted the Americans who created "conspiracy theories" and made absurd remarks such as "the virus originated in a Wuhan laboratory".
Disappointed Western media, including The New York Times and Reuters, have tried to hype up false accusations such as China's refusal to provide data to the WHO expert group, but these reports have been directly criticized and refuted by many WHO experts.
Peter Daszak, a consultant on pathogens of the World Health Organization and chairman of the EcoHealth Alliance, a non-profit organization in the United States, said on Twitter that the New York Times report incorrectly quoted the views of the panel members. He said that it is a shameful act to support the "narrative framework" that reporters have prepared in advance.
