The Senate’s chief oversight committee will be launching an investigation into the origins and response to the CCP virus pandemic, covering the Chinese regime’s role during the early stages of the outbreak in Wuhan.
The Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee will conduct a wide-ranging probe into topics, from how the virus spread in the first place to the World Health Organization’s (WHO) response to the outbreak, committee chairman Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) told Politico on April 13.
“Where did this all start from? Was this transferred animal to human? Was this from a lab in China? Might have been the best of intentions trying to come up with the different cures, with the different therapies for the coronavirus in general,” Johnson said.The origins of the virus is still unknown. While Chinese officials initially linked the outbreak to a seafood market in Wuhan, they have moved away from this narrative after evidence showed that the first recorded patient on Dec. 1 had not been to the market.
