US Energy Dept Says COVID Probably Leaked From Wuhan Lab 

A newly updated classified report from the United States Department of Energy obtained by the Wall Street Journal newspaper shows that COVID-19 was probably the result of a leak from a laboratory. <br />The new coronavirus — SARS-CoV-2 — first emerged in the central Chinese city of Wuhan in late 2019 and quickly spread around the world, so far killing nearly 7 million people. <br />The Journal reported that the judgement for the latest classified report arose out of new intelligence and was made with low confidence. <br />Four US intelligence agencies believe with low confidence that COVID-19 took place through natural transmission, while two others remain undecided.
