Washington, Oct 30 (Prensa Latina) Barring an unforeseen breakthrough, US intelligence agencies won’t be able to conclude whether Covid-19 spread by animal-to-human transmission or leaked from a lab, according to CNN.

The 17-page report from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence offered no new conclusions, the intelligence community reamins split about whether the virus originated naturally or escaped from a lab, as indicated by another shorter report published in August.

At that time President Joe Biden asked to review those results in order to find out a specific cause, however conclusions were similar.

Like two months ago, Washington reiterated on Friday that it needs China’s cooperation to reach a conclusive evaluation because, in its opinion, the Asian country hinders the investigation and hides information.

Beijing has criticized the politicization of this issue and harps on leaving this issue to science.
