Saturday, National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said he has \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/statements-releases\/2021\/02\/13\/statement-by-national-security-advisor-jake-sullivan\/\">deep concerns<\/a>\u201d over the WHO\u2019s investigation into China\u2019s role as ground zero for the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>The organization\u2019s initial findings were made without data from the early phase of the outbreak.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOf course this information is all in Chinese and needs to be translated etcetera, etcetera,\u201d microbiologist and infectious disease expert Professor Dominic Dwyer said. \u201cBut whether there are any other reasons why the data isn\u2019t available, I don\u2019t know. One would only speculate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Last week, WHO investigators left China empty-handed as they were denied access to data on 174 cases that were allegedly close to the pandemic\u2019s origins. Instead, Chinese researchers gave their own studies based on medical data months before the Wuhan outbreak hit.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2372055\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2372055\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-2372055 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/dzm0ugdauank9.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/GettyImages-1231073123.jpg\" alt=\"WHO team member Peter Ben Embarek (L) waves as group members Marion Koopmans and Peter Daszak leave their hotel after the World Health Organization (WHO) team wrapped up its investigation into the origins of the COVID-19 coronavirus in Wuhan in China&#039;s central Hubei province on February 10, 2021.

(Photo by HECTOR RETAMAL\/AFP via Getty Images)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Allegedly, the WHO team was neither allowed to look at this data nor to conduct their own investigations. The lack of transparency from China raised the hairs of global leaders, including the U.S., who called for China to release the data.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNone of the data has given the answer on its own,\u201d Dwyer added. \u201cSo then when you have got limited bits of information, how do you put those together to work out the origin? So there were differences of opinion about the significance of the data and so on, and that\u2019s natural.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sullivan stressed the Biden administration reversed President Trump\u2019s decision to pull out of the WHO out of respect for the organization. He added protecting the WHO\u2019s credibility is a top priority as the world looks to it for advice on how to combat COVID-19.<\/p>\n<p>However, Sullivan noted re-engaging with the WHO means they must live up to higher standards.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/community-remembers-yale-student-killed-in-conn\/\">Community Remembers Yale Student Killed In Conn.<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1893416,"comment_status":"close","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[5241,3774,6701,6702,3972,6700],"class_list":["post-130048","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-concerns","tag-covid-19","tag-findings","tag-origins","tag-over","tag-sullivan"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/130048","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=130048"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/130048\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1893416"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=130048"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=130048"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=130048"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
