During the outbreak of COVID-19 in 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) had also warned that the dog trade spreads rabies and increases the risk of cholera. The people of Yulin, however, seem to have turned a deaf ear to all advice as they continue to devour dog meat sold on the streets.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That infuriates Gervais, who went on a profane rant about the festival.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI cannot believe the #YulinDogMeatFestival is still happening.

But in recent weeks, more and more people are musing about whether the virus emerged from the Wuhan Institute of Virology.<\/p>\n<p>The former CIA director and secretary of state under President Donald Trump said the Institute is operating.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat virology lab is still up and running. It\u2019s still probably conducting the same kinds of research it was conducting that may have well led to this virus escaping from that laboratory,\u201d Mike Pompeo\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/pompeo-wuhan-lab-military-activity-alongside-civilian-research\">said<\/a>\u00a0on Fox News.<\/p>\n<p>Pompeo said there is \u201cenormous evidence\u201d that the virus originated in the lab.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat I can say for sure is this: we know that they were engaged in efforts connected to the People\u2019s Liberation Army inside of that laboratory, so military activity being performed alongside what they claimed was just good old civilian research,\u201d Pompeo said. \u201cThey refuse to tell us what it was, they refuse to describe the nature of either of those, they refused to allow access to the World Health Organization when it tried to get in there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Experts agree that the pandemic originated in Wuhan, but social media outlets like Facebook and others have, until recently, banned posts that say the virus originated in a lab. In the last few weeks, though, reports have circulated that the virus may have originated in the Wuhan facility, and even members of President Joe Biden\u2019s cabinet are demanding answers.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
