WASHINGTON (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 14th April, 2021) The US intelligence community still does not know the origins of the COVID-19 virus and believes it could have emerged naturally after a human contact with an animal or through a laboratory accident, Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines said during on Wednesday.
"It is absolutely accurate that the intelligence community doesn't know exactly where, when or how COVID-19 virus was transmitted initially. And basically components have coalesced around two alternative theories. These scenarios are: it emerged naturally from human contact with an infected animal, or it was a laboratory accident," Haines said in testimony to the Senate.
