Intelligence agencies investigate mobile phone data. They would suggest that the Wuhan Institute of Virology would have had an emergency shutdown in October last year.
Emergency stop
NBC News has reportedly obtained “hot” documents. They would show that between October 6 and 11 a "dangerous event" occurred at the National Biosafety Laboratory in Wuhan.
This allegedly led to an arrest of the P4 laboratory from 7 to 24 October. In this period, in fact, there would be no mobile telephony activity.
The laboratory, located a short distance from the now well-known "wet market" of Wuhan in the center of the Vulgate on pandemic of coronavirus, is the structure that the US administration has been accusing for weeks.
The report, which according to NBC was made by private investigators, also reports that roadblocks were set up around the laboratory between 14 and 19 October.
US spy agencies are reviewing the document, but intelligence analysts reviewed and could not confirm a similar theory previously, two senior officials told NBC's London-based news verification unit.
The report offers no direct evidence of a disruption of operations within the lab, nor any evidence for the theory that the virus accidentally “escaped” from the lab.
The suspects of the USA and Australia
Both Donald Trump and US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo have openly spoken of a coronavirus "leak" from the laboratory. The prevailing theory posits a passage from animals to humans via an “intermediate host” at an animal market in Wuhan.
In Australia, Prime Minister Scott Morrison played two tables. On the one hand he supported the wet market theory. On the other hand, he simultaneously asked for an investigation into the origin of the epidemic.
Marco Rubio raises
US Senator Marco Rubio, member of the Senate Intelligence Committee, perhaps sparked the attack on May 6th. He did it the Trump way, by tweeting.
“It would be interesting if you analyzed commercial telemetry data at the Wuhan lab from October to December 2019. If it showed a strong difference compared to the previous 18 months, it would be a strong indication of an accident at the lab and when it happened.”
Meanwhile, Chinese officials continue to deny any possibility of a laboratory accident as the cause of the coronavirus pandemic.
