According to U.
S.
media reports, the investigation report on the traceability of the new crown virus "manipulated" by the US intelligence agency has been submitted to the White House
.

In an interview with Xinhua News Agency reporters, scientific research experts from many countries said that the "laboratory leak theory" cannot withstand scientific scrutiny.

"Laboratory Leak Theory" is untenable

"Laboratory Leak Theory" is untenable

"There is no evidence that the new coronavirus is made in a laboratory.
All these claims ('laboratory leak theory') cannot stand scientific scrutiny
.

" Professor David Robertson, head of viral genomics at the Viral Research Center of the University of Glasgow, UK, recently said Said in an email interview with a reporter from Xinhua News Agency

He wrote: "The'Laboratory Leak Theory' did not provide any evidence other than the geographical location of Wuhan Institute of Virology in Wuhan
.

"

In response to some conspiracy theorists claiming that the RaTG13 coronavirus may be the source of the new coronavirus, Robertson said that the coronavirus isolated from Yunnan bats by researchers at the Wuhan Institute of Virology is very different from the new coronavirus, with about 1,100 mutations.
The RaTG13 coronavirus cannot be the ancestor of the new coronavirus
.

Alexei Deykin, a senior scientist at the Institute of Genetic Biology of theRussian Academy of Sciences, said in an interview with Xinhua News Agency a few days ago that the global traceability of the new coronavirus should consider every possibility
.

Jaykin opposed the presumption of guilt on the traceability of the new crown virus, and pointed out that the claim that the new crown virus was leaked from the Wuhan Virus Research Institute was baseless

Academy of Sciences

French expert Gabriel Grass, who was involved in guiding the construction and certification of the P4 (Biosafety Level 4) laboratory of Wuhan Institute of Virology, said in an exclusive interview with a reporter from Xinhua News Agency that it is based on common sense to determine that the possibility of virus leakage in the Wuhan laboratory is zero.

.

He explained: "Operating a P4 laboratory is very expensive, both in terms of money and time
.

Due to safety constraints, you need to wear a stressful'space suit' to walk during the operation, and the experiment will take longer.

"It's like: If you need to move a 30 kg refrigerator, you would not use a 20 ton crane to do it.
This is completely illogical
.

Since there is no reason to cultivate the new coronavirus in the P4 laboratory, there is no new coronavirus from The possibility of leaks from the P4 laboratory

Virus traceability should not be politicized

Virus traceability should not be politicized

"Virus tracing is a very complex scientific issue.
International experts in the field of viruses, genes, and other fields should seek the source of the virus through cooperation
.

It should not be led by politicians .

Regarding some countries using intelligence agencies to conduct traceability investigations, Xie Heini said that the traceability of the virus should not be politicized, and the virus should not be labeled as a "virus in a certain country
.

" "Politicizing the issue of traceability will inevitably interfere with international anti-epidemic cooperation, and political factors must not be allowed to surpass scientific factors to dominate traceability work

Elena Reyes, an epidemiologist at the National Autonomous University of Mexico, said in an interview with Xinhua News Agency that work in the health field such as the traceability of the new crown virus should not be mixed with political interests, otherwise it will hinder science from playing its own role in epidemic prevention.
People's lives are safe
.

Reyes said that the government should learn how to cooperate, refuse to politicize health issues, and cannot assign responsibility to a certain country
.

All countries must assume their internal responsibilities, and each country has an obligation to promote the development of public health and maintain the health of its people

(Gold) National Institute of Biomedical Congolese president , Congo (gold) new crown epidemic prevention and control inter-departmental committee will Coordinator Jean - Jacques Mu Yam Pui recently told Xinhua News Agency reporters Zhuan Fang and Jiang Diao , the new crown virus traceability "pure "Scientific problems must be solved by scientists
