Description
China dismisses claims that the Covid-19 pandemic came from a lab, after US intelligence said it believed the virus had a "research-related origin" rather than being transmitted by animals.
"The conclusion that a laboratory leak is extremely unlikely was reached by the China-WHO joint expert team based on field visits to relevant laboratories in Wuhan," foreign ministry spokesperson Mao Ning says. SOUNDBITE
