US President Joe Biden signs bipartisan bill to declassify intelligence about origins of Covid-19

US President Joe Biden has signed a bipartisan bill that directs the federal government to declassify intelligence about the origins of Covid-19.

In a statement, he said, the US needs to get to the bottom of COVID-19’s origins including potential links to the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

The legislation, which passed both the House and Senate without dissent, cites potential links between the research that was done in the Wuhan lab and the outbreak of Covid-19, which the World Health Organisation declared a pandemic on March 11, 2020.
