Wuhan Lab Leak Theory Back After WHO Chief's Reference

WHO director Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus on Tuesday said the laboratory leak was the "least likely" hypotheses, but still needed "further investigation."

The Wuhan lab leak theory has been thrust back into the spotlight after the WHO chief reopened the hypotheses that the coronavirus seeped from its facilities. World Health Organisation director Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus on Tuesday said the laboratory leak was the "least likely" hypotheses, but still needed "further investigation." China says full access was given to the lab and has hit out at the "politicisation" of the investigation into the cause of the global pandemic. But Tedros has kept alive a notion that WHO experts had earlier doused as "highly unlikely".
