Coronavirus originated from Wuhan lab: Donald Trump

TIL Desk/World/Washington/ The novel coronavirus, that has killed over 230,000 people globally so far and has shattered economies, emerged from a virology lab in the Wuhan city of China, United States President Donald Trump claimed Thursday with a high degree of confidence.

“Yes, I have. Yes, I have,” Trump told reporters at the East Room of the White House when asked if he has seen anything at this point that gives him a high degree of confidence that the Wuhan Institute of Virology is where the virus originated.

The president, however, refuse to provide any details, except for saying that investigations are on and it would be out soon. Asked what gave him a high degree of confidence that the virus originated from the Wuhan Institute of Virology, he said, “I can’t tell you that. I’m not allowed to tell you that.”
