China disease expert says Covid-19 origins probe should shift to US, reports Global Times | Malay Mail

SHANGHAI, June 17 — A senior Chinese epidemiologist said the United States should be the priority in the next phase of investigations into the origin of Covid-19 after a study showed the disease could have been circulating there as early as December 2019, state media said today.

Commenting on the US study yesterday, foreign ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said it was now “obvious” the Covid-19 outbreak had “multiple origins” and that other countries should co-operate with the WHO.
