US lawmakers say they have seen new ‘credible’ information that Covid leaked from a Chinese lab and Beijing covered it up.

They claim to have also seen strong evidence that China’s military was involved in experiments at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV).

Members of the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic saw the details in classified documents from the US State Department, which advises the president on foreign policy.

The committee’s chair Rep Brad Wenstrup, a Republican from Ohio, has called for the information to be ‘immediately’ declassified and unredacted to give the public ‘a more complete picture of the government’s evidence regarding the origin of the Covid pandemic.’
