CIA Now Favors Lab Leak Theory On Origins of Covid-19
- The CIA now assesses that the virus causing Covid-19 most likely originated from a laboratory in China, according to a statement released on Saturday, which indicates a low confidence in this conclusion.
- The assessment, which was made public shortly after John Ratcliffe became director, is based on existing information rather than new intelligence.
- Despite the new assessment, there is still no consensus on the origins of Covid-19, with some intelligence agencies maintaining the virus was not developed as a biological weapon.
- Senator Tom Cotton expressed satisfaction with the CIA's conclusion, emphasizing the need for accountability from China for the pandemic's impact.
