The report came a day before the World Health Organization meeting in which the WHO is expected to discuss the next phase of investigation regarding the origin of the corona virus.

Current and former officials familiar with the intelligence about the lab researchers expressed differing views about the strength of the supporting evidence for the assessment. One person said that it was provided by an international partner and was potentially significant but still in need of further investigation and additional corroboration.

Another person described the intelligence as stronger. “The information that we had coming from the various sources was of exquisite quality. It was very precise. What it didn’t tell you was exactly why they got sick,” he said, referring to the researchers.

A US Security Council spokeswoman did not comment on the Wall Street Journal news, but said the Biden administration was 'serious about investigating the origin of the corona virus.'
