Biden signs bill to declassify COVID origins intelligence

Biden signs bill to declassify COVID origins intelligence.

"In implementing this legislation, my administration will declassify and share as much of that information as possible, consistent with my constitutional authority to protect against the disclosure of information that would harm national security," Biden said in a statement.

"We need to get to the bottom of COVID-19's origins to help ensure we can better prevent future pandemics," he said.

"I share the Congress's goal of releasing as much information as possible about the origin of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID–19)," Biden said in a statement. "We need to get to the bottom of COVID-19's origins to help ensure we can better prevent future pandemics."

The U.S. Energy Department has concluded that the Covid-19 pandemic was most likely caused by a laboratory leak, the Wall Street Journal reported.

The Energy Department, which oversees many U.S. laboratories, came to its conclusion based on new intelligence, but deemed its level of confidence in its judgment as “low,”

The FBI also determined in 2021 with “moderate confidence” the virus came from a lab leak.

National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said there is “not a definitive answer."

Per Forbes: Four agencies have reportedly determined with “low confidence” the virus was transmitted naturally through animals, and two others, including the CIA, remain undecided between the two origin theories.

Former White House medical advisor Anthony Fauci has said he has an “open mind” about the virus’ origins.
