WHO Chief Privately Believes COVID-19 DID Leak From Wuhan Lab Following ‘Catastrophic Accident’ in 2019, Senior Government Source Claims

World Health Organization Chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus privately believes COVID-19 started following a leak from a Chinese laboratory, a senior Government source claims.

The WHO has branded a leak from the Wuhan Lab as a ‘conspiracy theory’ for the duration of the past 2+ years.

While the global health agency maintains that ‘all hypotheses remain on the table’ about COVID’s origins, the source said Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus had recently confided to a senior European politician that the most likely explanation was a catastrophic accident at a laboratory in Wuhan, where infections first spread during late 2019.

The Daily Mail reported:

The Mail on Sunday first revealed concerns within Western intelligence services about the Wuhan Institute of Virology, where scientists were manipulating coronaviruses sampled from bats in caves nearly 1,000 miles away – the same caves where Covid-19 is suspected to have originated – in April 2020. The worldwide death toll from the Covid pandemic is now estimated to have hit more than 18 million.

The WHO was initially criticised for its deferential approach to China over the pandemic, as well as a willingness to accept Beijing’s protestations that claims of a laboratory leak were just a ‘conspiracy theory’.

However, in the absence of any compelling evidence of ‘zoonotic’ spread – the process by which a virus leaps from animals to humans – it is now adopting a more neutral public stance.

Dr Tedros updated member states on the pandemic this month, admitting: ‘We do not yet have the answers as to where it came from or how it entered the human population.

‘Understanding the origins of the virus is very important scientifically to prevent future epidemics and pandemics.

‘But morally, we also owe it to all those who have suffered and died and their families. The longer it takes, the harder it becomes. We need to speed up and act with a sense of urgency.
