JAKARTA - A team of experts from the World Health Organization (WHO) will begin a visit to a number of places in Wuhan, China, to trace the origins of the coronavirus on Friday, January 29 local time.
Laboratories, markets, and hospitals in Wuhan are among the locations to be visited. The expert team will also meet Chinese scientists.
From the list of locations for the visit to be carried out, there are two interesting locations, namely the fresh seafood market in the area where the outbreak started, and the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Previously, China had always rejected the hypothesis that a possible outbreak was caused by a leak in a government laboratory.
"It is important to remember that the success of this mission and tracing of origins depends 100 percent on access to relevant sources", Thea Fischer, a team member from Denmark, told Reuters.
"No matter how competent we are, how hard we work and how many stones we try to turn, this can only be done with support from China", he added.
Previously, this expert team had 'experienced' a number of delays and concerns about limited access, plus disputes between China and the United States regarding information disclosure.
The expert team also underwent a 14-day quarantine, having previously arrived in Wuhan in early January. Previously, the planned visit was postponed because of China's "open attitude".
