As the calls for a second round of investigation into the origins of the coronavirus in China gain momentum, Beijing sharpened its attack on the United States and demanded the World Health Organization (WHO) to inspect a military base in the US instead. Taking to Twitter, spokesperson of China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Zhao Lijian said, "If labs are to be investigated, then the WHO experts should go to Fort Detrick." He said that the US should act transparently & responsibly as soon as possible and invite WHO experts for an inquiry into the Fort Detrick lab. Only in this way can truth be revealed to the world.

Meanwhile, the Biden administration in a statement had lately criticized China’s rejection of the WHO’s plan for the second phase of a study into the origins of COVID-19.
