The World Health Organization is developing a team of about 20 scientists who will be tasked with uncovering the origins of the COVID-19 outbreak-- and officials warned that time could be running out, according to a report. The Wall Street Journal reported Sunday that officials from the U.N.’s public-health arm have warned that the world may never know the virus’ origins. The Journal’s report said the Biden administration has been pressing WHO's director Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus to renew the inquiry. An unidentified WHO spokesman told the paper that the team’s priority "needs to be data and access in the country where the first reports were identified." Klon Kitchen, a former intelligence officer with the ODNI, told Fox News it is in China's interest to continue to bar access to uncovering the origin of the virus.
