Chinese Official Says US Army May Have ‘Brought the Epidemic to Wuhan’
A Chinese government spokesman said Thursday that “it might be U.S. Army who brought the epidemic to Wuhan,” pushing one of several popular coronavirus conspiracy theories in China.
Zhao Lijian, a Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesman, called attention to the admission Wednesday by Robert Redfield, the director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, that some Americans who were said to have died from influenza may have actually died from the coronavirus (COVID-19).
