[Epoch Times, August 26, 2021](Epoch Times reporter Li Xin comprehensive report) US officials said on Wednesday (August 25) that the domestic intelligence community has followed President Biden’s instructions and submitted a report on the Chinese Communist virus within 90 days. (Wuhan virus, new crown virus, COVID-19) report on the origin of the problem.
According to a CNN report on the 25th, two government officials told the media that the US intelligence community had reported the findings to Biden on Tuesday.
A White House official also confirmed the above news to CBS on Wednesday.
“The President heard the introduction of the confidential report,” the official told CBS News (CBS News), “We look forward to a non-confidential summary of key judgments to share soon.”
Although the findings of the investigation are highly anticipated, for weeks, intelligence officials have been downplaying the possibility that US intelligence agencies can draw clear conclusions. They pointed out that the Chinese government lacked cooperation and obfuscated relevant data in the early stages.
At a news briefing on Monday, White House spokesperson Jen Psaki said that a non-confidential version of the report will be released publicly in the next few days, but she does not know what form it will take.
According to CNN estimates, the non-confidential summary of the report may be available this week, and Biden asked the intelligence community to declassify the report as much as possible.
In May of this year, when the issue of the source of the CCP virus once again caused great concern, Biden ordered the US intelligence community to “double” its efforts to investigate this issue, including the possibility that the CCP virus originated in a laboratory accident, and requested intelligence. The officials submit the report within 90 days.
People familiar with the matter told CNN that no agency in the US intelligence community has the confidence to give a definitive conclusion about whether the CCP virus was a natural occurrence or leaked from a laboratory in Wuhan, China.
Since the early days of the outbreak, the Chinese Communist government has refused to share relevant information with the outside world and insisted that the virus emerged naturally. Due to the lack of transparency, all investigations, including the previous investigation of the origin of the virus conducted by the World Health Organization (WHO), have encountered huge obstacles.
The WHO CCP virus origin investigation team concluded earlier this year that the virus was probably transmitted to humans from animals sold on the Wuhan market. This seems to deny the possibility that the CCP virus originated in the laboratory of Wuhan Institute of Virology.
This conclusion made by the WHO, which is deeply infiltrated by the CCP, has been refuted by many scientists, especially in the United States. In this context, Biden issued an order to investigate again to the US intelligence community.
According to CBS News, it is not yet clear whether the White House will order another investigation if the results of the investigation are completely inconclusive. Some members of Congress have called for the establishment of an investigation committee similar to the “9.11” incident to investigate the origin of the virus. House Republicans have launched several investigations of their own.
The CCP virus epidemic has now claimed the lives of at least four million people worldwide. Public health officials of various countries said that they should have a deep understanding of how the virus first infected humans, which is essential to prevent and contain future outbreaks.
