China’s ambassador to the United States suggested in a televised interview Sunday that the World Health Organization should investigate whether the coronavirus outbreak began somewhere in America rather than Wuhan.
CNN host Fareed Zakaria asked Ambassador Cui Tiankai if the virus had leaked out of a Wuhan lab before becoming a global pandemic.
"I think when people make accusations, they have to prove these accusations," Cui replied, telling Zakaria that WHO scientists were currently working in the city to "look at all the facts."
Zakaria asked if that meant those scientists have been granted "full access to China" during the investigation.
"They are already in Wuhan," Cui replied. "They have been in Wuhan for quite a few days. My questions is, will they be allowed to come here in the USA to do the same thing?"
The virus is widely believed to have originated from a bat in Wuhan, the capital of China’s Hubei Province. But it’s unclear whether the first human case was contracted in a laboratory at the Wuhan Institute of Virology there or from a bat at a so-called wet market – outdoor bazaars where meat, fish and produce are sold.
The U.S. State Department on Jan. 15 said it had "reason to believe" scientists in Wuhan may have been infected with COVID-19 in the autumn of 2019, but Beijing has worked hard to prevent a transparent investigation into the origins of the virus.
"The [Chinese Communist Party] has prevented independent journalists, investigators, and global health authorities from interviewing researchers at the WIV, including those who were ill in the fall of 2019," the State Department said. "Any credible inquiry into the origin of the virus must include interviews with these researchers and a full accounting of their previously unreported illness."

In the same CNN interview, Cui claimed that China’s alleged Uyghur reeducation camps in Xinjiang were “Just like a campus. Not a labor camp, but campus.”
China has denied a number of allegations about its treatment of the Uyghurs, an ethnic Muslim minority. But American authorities have issued sanctions on the country and businesses in Xinjiang for alleged forced labor and other human rights violations against the Uyghurs, including torture, forced birth control and organ harvesting.
After what they caused,their country should be a smoking ruin.
Bring it on!
Mitch and Chuck Schumer will get right on it.
I just knew the Wuflu was Trump’s fault somehow. Here’s proof!
Fauci and gain of function research.
This may be “misdirection by telling a partial truth”.
Recall the universities with chinese espionage and....viral research.
We should have nuked them YEARS ago.
Come from a bat? Yeah, sure. Sounds more like an engineered bio-weapon from a lab.
Came at us like a bat out of Hell.
Brilliant move by the Chi-Coms. Ask the blame America firsters why can’t the Chinese investigate over here?
Before you know it, CNN will have convinced it’s ever-dwindling audiences that the Wuhan Virus actually originated at a cock-fight attended strictly by “ racists “ in rural Louisiana.
lemme guess, facebook, twitter and youtube won’t factcheck his conspiracy theory as they would if Donald Trump had made such a remark about another country.
Bernie Bros said the same thing about Stalin’s gulags and how that should be done to American conservatives.

Everybody was Kung Flu fighting

And there is nothing racial about that joke.
There is a cultural difference between us and China...
But but but
That’s what the lamestream media, social media, the administration and Congress wants us to force us to believe.
Any push back means a ban, job loss (for racism, no doubt), social and soon financial sanction.
Only ones still calling it the Chinese Virus are The Epoch Times, some conservative media and in that South Park episode.
China
Asia
Europe
Other global
The U S
Kind of tough to peg the last nation to get it, as the global source
Uyghurs are Islamist, much like ISIS.
Erdoo (Turkey) planted a bunch of them to extend their stonghold in N. Syria.
No doubt China did everything they were accused of. They are Communist. There are no rules except retaining power, much like our ComDem Party in the US.
The Bat Cave is in Wuhan Lab.
