Freshly declassified U.S. Senate documents have reignited the debate over the origins of COVID-19, alleging that a Chinese military scientist secretly sent coronavirus-related vials to a laboratory in the United States more than a year before the pandemic began.
According to The Washington Times, citing declassified documents released by a Senate committee, Yusen Zhou, a researcher linked to China's People's Liberation Army (PLA), arranged for three virus-related vials to be delivered to University of Minnesota professor Li Fang in November 2018 through a courier.
