Ex-CDC director believes COVID-19 came from Wuhan lab

The former director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention believes the virus that causes COVID-19 escaped from a lab in Wuhan, China, according to a new interview.

Robert Redfield told CNN on Friday that it was his opinion that SARS-CoV-2 the new coronavirus responsible for killing 2.7 million people globally did not evolve naturally.

I m of the point of view that I still think the most likely etiology of this pathology in Wuhan was from a laboratory escaped, said Redfield, who led the CDC during the height of the pandemic. Other people don t believe that. That s fine. Science will eventually figure it out.
