Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Monday said he could not "put a percentage on" the likelihood COVID leaked from a Chinese lab, maintaining that U.S. intelligence officials have narrowed the origins of the novel coronavirus down to "two possible and likely scenarios."
"I can’t put a percentage on it," Blinken said Monday. "I think there are two possible and likely scenarios – one … that it emerged from a laboratory – the other is that it was naturally occurring." Blinken, on Monday, said the administration remains "open to the most possible explanations if the evidence is there to support it."
