(Illustration/ China Daily) The US owes Chinese netizens explanations on why it remains silent on opening Fort Detrick lab for investigation and why it launched cyberattacks on an online petition demanding that the World Health Organization (WHO) investigate the lab, said Zhao Lijian spokesperson from China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Monday. The petition was launched on July 17 as a response from Chinese netizens to US' politicization of the COVID-19 origins investigation.

(ECNS) -- China on Thursday declined a World Health Organization (WHO) plan for a second phase investigation into the COVID-19 origin that includes the hypothesis it could have been leaked from a Chinese laboratory. The plan has been compromised by political manipulation and disrespect of scientific facts, said Zeng Yixin, deputy head of the National Health Commission, on Thursday.
