China should release medical records of Wuhan lab workers- Dr Fauci

Top American infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci has called on China to release the medical records of nine people whose ailments might provide vital clues into whether COVID-19 first emerged as the result of a lab leak, who are reported to have gotten sick in 2019. He added that it must be known if the three people really got sick and with what they got sick. The origin of the virus is hotly contested, with US intelligence agencies still examining reports that researchers at a Chinese virology laboratory in Wuhan were seriously ill in 2019 a month before the first COVID-19 cases were reported. 
Responding to Dr Fauci statement, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said that Wuhan Institute of Virology has clarified that they had not contacted the novel coronavirus prior to December 30, 2019. He added that the US should invite WHO experts to the US to study virus origins and explain their more than 200 bio labs all over the world including the Fort Detrick lab. Wang reiterated China's position that reports of a lab leak are a conspiracy theory.
