Dr. David Asher, a proliferation expert who helped lead the State Department’s 2020 investigation into the origins of COVID-19, said the Wuhan lab should be hit with United States sanctions over its alleged role in leaking SARS-CoV-2 and over China’s role in covering up the pandemic as the virus spread. He made the remarks during a GOP-led House Foreign Affairs Committee subcommittee hearing on Wednesday which examined U.S. sanctions policy.
FBI Director Christopher Wray confirmed last month that the FBI has long believed COVID-19 originated at a Chinese government lab, and it was recently revealed the Energy Department now believes with “low confidence” that the coronavirus started at a Wuhan lab.
