                                            The Chinese government dismissed a House GOP report that 
argues COVID-19 escaped from a Wuhan lab in late summer 2019, arguing it is “based on concocted lies.”

  House Foreign Affairs Committee Republicans 
concluded  the October 2019 World Military Games in Wuhan were “one of the  earliest super spreader events” of the pandemic, with the report  contending COVID-19 emerged from the Wuhan Institute of Virology in late  August or early September 2019, with 
China covering it up for months.  
 The report 
zeroed in  on the event, during which more than 9,000 military personnel from over  100 countries came to compete in Wuhan, where Republicans argue the  Chinese government knew the virus was circulating. 
 The Chinese Foreign Ministry released a 
statement on Tuesday, titled “Remarks on Disinformation about COVID-19 Origins Tracing Disseminated by U.S. Congressmen.”  
 “The  relevant report, totally based on the concocted lies and distorted  facts without providing any evidence, is not credible or scientific,”  the statement read.  
 It claimed the report "smears and slanders  China in pursuit of political gains" and said the Chinese government  “expresses categorical opposition to and strong condemnation of such  despicable acts.”  
 China’s embassy in the United States also 
shared the statement. 
 The  Chinese Foreign Ministry pointed to “U.S. military personnel” who  allegedly “fell ill during the Military World Games in Wuhan” and called  for an international inquiry into the U.S. Army’s Fort Detrick in  Maryland, something China has done dozens of times before.  
 China  added: “We urge the U.S. to respect facts and science and focus on  fighting COVID-19 and saving lives, instead of engaging in political  manipulation.” 
 
HOUSE GOP SAYS COVID-19 ESCAPED WUHAN LAB IN SUMMER 2019 
 The  GOP report said “the PRC’s efforts to obfuscate the origins of COVID-19  were not limited to destroying samples and silencing doctors, but  featured a sustained disinformation campaign as well.”  
 It  specifically pointed to Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian  and other Chinese officials and outlets that have pushed baseless claims  about the U.S. military since at least March 2020. 
 Zhao himself 
tweeted  Tuesday: “If we just stop and think for a moment, we’ll find the U.S.  has done so many highly suspicious things, which are all linked to  #COVID19 origins. So if the U.S. wants to cover it up, the best way  is…?” He included a graphic that again pointed to Fort Detrick and  brought up the 2019 Wuhan games. 
 The GOP report emphasized: “If  the CCP realized an investigation would show an uptick in visits of  patients with symptoms similar to COVID-19 in September, October, and  November of 2019, this would likely be the actions they would take to  cover up the source of those illnesses.” 
 Zhao and others have pushed the U.S. Army claims for months and 
revived them earlier this year as the World Health Organization-China COVID-19 report was made public. 
 The U.S. has previously dismissed the Chinese claims as "false, baseless and unscientific," as well as a "myth." 
 The GOP report contended the virus spread throughout Wuhan, "likely via the Wuhan Metro." 
 "In  order to prevent national embarrassment, the decision was made to allow  the 2019 Military World Games to continue. No spectators were allowed  to attend the games, but international athletes and some of the 236,000  volunteers still became infected, spreading the virus in the city,” the  GOP report argued. “Dozens of athletes fall ill with symptoms. ... The  athletes return to their home countries in late October, carrying  SARS-CoV-2 across the world.” 
 Rep. Michael McCaul, the ranking member on House Foreign Affairs, 
said  Monday: “When they realized what happened, Chinese Communist Party  officials and scientists at the WIV began frantically covering up the  leak." 
 “But their coverup was too late — the virus was already  spreading throughout the megacity of Wuhan. ... Athletes at the Military  World Games became sick with symptoms similar to COVID-19. Some of them  carried the virus back to their home countries — creating one of the  earliest super spreader events in the world.”

 Hu Xijin, the editor-in-chief of the Chinese state-run 
Global Times, 
tweeted  Monday: “Since when has the Republican Party become a party of science?  It is perhaps a ‘cult’ party since it claims to know what happened on  the other side of the earth.”  
The GOP report on Monday said: “To  further drive this narrative, CCP-controlled media outlets accused  Maatje Benassi, a member of the U.S. Army Reserve, as being ‘patient  zero.’ Benassi competed at the Military World Games without becoming  ill. … Two weeks after Zhao tweeted that the U.S. army brought the virus  to Wuhan, the 
Global Times amplified the narrative.”
