The assertion was much infuriated when the US officials termed the now pandemic virus as “Wuhan Virus”. This caused Beijing to hit back angrily at the US officials.
The claim has even turned more complicated after Zhao posted a video of the head of the US Centres for Disease Control and Prevention testifying before Congress that some Americans, who were believed to have died from the flu, were intentionally diagnosed with the Covid-19 illness.
