File photo File photo

As the world grapples with a vaccine to deal with the deadly coronavirus, there appears to be a never-ending debate over how the virus emerged. Mainstream and social media are awash with theories and appetizing conspiracies about how the virus was created in a laboratory by some super-powers to achieve certain deadly aims.

Some have even argued it was planned to be a weapon of mass destruction. In all these, the China province of Wuhan jumps up as the main quarters or origin of the virus – at least the world is made to believe so. But what if Wuhan is also a victim of this whole grand plan, what if the whole scenario was craftily woven to make it appear as though China has a plan against the rest of the word? It is obvious that China with its ambiguous growth and magnitude has enemies.

Now here are some facts that any critical observer of global affairs cannot gloss over.

On February 27, 2020, Chinese epidemiologist and pulmonologist Dr Nanshan Zhong pointed out that the first case of COVID-19 infection in the world was not necessarily in Wuhan. Virus DNA profiling showed that there were only 3 later haplogroups in China while all the 5 haplogroups including the earliest one were found in the US.

Late February 2020 Contrary to its early decision, the US government decided to give up detection, confirmation and treatment of COVID-19.

On, March 2020 CDC of the US admitted that there were COVID-19 related deaths amongst earlier flu casualties.

March 2020 All information related to the shutdown of Biodefence lab in Fort Detrick was systematically deleted on the internet. Spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affair of China, Mr.Lijian Zhao, claimed that the COVID-19 was originated in the US, urging the US government to be transparent on the subject.
