Today, the WHO expert team went to the Wuhan Institute of Virology. US Secretary of State Blincoln said that China’s virus traceability arrangements are not transparent enough, and you answered relevant questions yesterday. When the expert group visited the Institute of Virology, what explanation did China give to the expert group?

Wang Wenbin: As a WHO official introduced at the press conference yesterday, the international expert group had fruitful discussions with the Chinese side. At the same time, it visited hospitals, markets, and CDCs. The work is progressing smoothly. Today the expert group will visit the Wuhan Virus Research Institute and have a discussion with experts from Huazhong Agricultural University. These activities are important content of the traceability exchange and cooperation between the two parties.

What needs to be pointed out is that virus traceability is a complex scientific problem, and we need to provide enough space for experts to engage in scientific research. China will, as always, uphold an open, transparent and responsible attitude, continue to cooperate with the WHO, and make its own contributions to better prevent future risks and protect the lives and health of people of all countries.
