摘要

In tracing the origins of the novel coro-navirus, the United States is acting out its own preset script dictated by a polit-ical hand, instead of scientific opinion. On May 26, President Joe Biden said he had asked the intelligence commu-nity to share its reports on the likely origins of COVID-19 within 90 days. As the deadline looms, U.S. media recently reported intelligence agencies are digging through genetic data that could prove vital to uncovering the virus' origins. The somewhat absurd approach of having these agencies in-vestigate the source of a virus has not gone unnoticed by the international community.
