An unclassified summary of the US intelligence community report on COVID-19 origins says it’s “plausible” the virus leaked from a lab in Wuhan, China, and that it might be genetically engineered — but that investigators remain “divided.”
President Biden requested the review under pressure in May and said in a Friday afternoon statement that he wants China “to fully share information,” without identifying any coercive steps to achieve cooperation.
“The world deserves answers, and I will not rest until we get them,” Biden said. “Responsible nations do not shirk these kinds of responsibilities to the rest of the world. Pandemics do not respect international borders, and we all must better understand how COVID-19 came to be in order to prevent further pandemics.”
The report summary says that “the [intelligence community] remains divided on the most likely origin of COVID-19,” but that “[a]ll agencies assess that two hypotheses are plausible: natural exposure to an infected animal and a laboratory-associated incident.”
One US spy agency leans toward the explanation that the virus leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
That agency “assesses with moderate confidence that the first human infection with SARS-CoV-2 most likely was the result of a laboratory-associated incident, probably involving experimentation, animal handling, or sampling by the Wuhan Institute of Virology,” the summary says.
“These analysts give weight to the inherently risky nature of work on coronaviruses.”
There was also uncertainty on whether it was genetically engineered.
“Most agencies also assess with low confidence that SARS-CoV-2 probably was not genetically engineered; however, two agencies believe there was not sufficient evidence to make an assessment either way,” the document says.
The two-page summary does not say which US spy agencies contributed analysis, but the review was expected to include the CIA and the National Security Agency, among others.

Make dementia joe get the shot.
Here’s my report: Fauci funded the Wuhan lab that caused the pandemic.
To say the rattlesnake didn’t bite the bat that attacked China?
Bingo!

It has been reported that Dong may have handed over evidence on the Wuhan lab leak theory which prompted President Joe Biden's U-turn as he ordered the US to "redouble" its investigation.
Biden's people pretend not to know. They know. I know, and I'm just some guy.

we think its plausible that china attacked us with a bio weapon and was helped by the enemies within this country and the globalists to get rid of trump, kill this country and bring it under their control
Investigators remain divided? All that means is at least one pro CCP person on the committee is sticking to the wet-market nonsense.
A clue for the clueless.
I have a sneaky feeling that your “shot” is not from a syringe.
Naughty, naughty.
Wink, wink, nudge, nudge.
Shake N Bake and Bill Gates helped.
I am of the opinion that the evidence must be fairly damning if they were forced to admit it was “plausible”.
