Corona has shocked the whole world. The number of patients is increasing continuously. A serious situation has arisen in many countries. It has been said for many days that the origin of Corona virus is from a laboratory in China.

According to a Wall Street Journal report, a 2021 Department of Energy study said the virus most likely originated from a laboratory in China. However, it is said not to be part of the program. That is, this virus was not used to make a weapon.

This information has come out from the office of National Intelligence Director Avril Haynes, it has been said in this report. A few things were linked to the emergence of this virus. The US has been saying since the beginning that the virus was leaked from China's Wuhan lab.

The agency said its report is being issued with 'low confidence'. The Department of Energy oversees a network of 17 U.S. laboratories, including one in the field of biology. There are two conflicting theories about the origin of the corona virus.

One is that it reached humans from an unknown animal and the other is that it came out of a research laboratory in Wuhan, China. Corona virus has been detected in China for the first time. After this, by the beginning of 2020, it had spread almost worldwide.

According to WHO, 70 lakh people have died in the world so far due to Corona virus. Due to Corona, the supply chain has been disrupted all over the world. Former US President Donald Trump also used this issue politically. He spread the corona virus around the world.

The Department of Energy's reports differed from those of four other US intelligence agencies. These two organizations concluded that the epidemic spread in nature from an infected animal. At the same time, both agencies have not reached any decision.

Due to the rapidly spreading corona, an atmosphere of fear has been created among the people. Millions of people got infected with Corona. Many have overcome Corona after treatment. Even now, the havoc of the virus is being seen in some places. Many developed countries have become helpless before Corona.
