MI6 Warned Boris Johnson of Lab Leak Theory

Boris Johnson received a classified dossier on the coronavirus pandemic from former MI6 head Sir Richard Dearlove, which warned of a possible lab leak in Wuhan. However, Chief Scientific Adviser Sir Patrick Vallance allegedly ignored the report, possibly due to concerns about offending China or jeopardizing research funding. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's director at the time, Robert Redfield, believed Covid-19 was caused by scientists infected while working with bat viruses. A German intelligence agency report suggested a 80-95% likelihood of the virus being accidentally released from the Wuhan Institute of Virology, citing safety regulation violations. The report also hinted that US funding for bat virus research in Wuhan may have been a factor in the alleged cover-up.
