Ginebra. El director general de la OMS, acusado de haber sido demasiado complaciente con China, endureció el tono este martes y se declaró dispuesto a enviar a expertos a investigar la hipótesis de que una fuga en un laboratorio provocara la pandemia.

La hipótesis de que el virus causante de la covid-19 escapara de un laboratorio de Wuhan, la ciudad china en la que se detectaron los primeros casos de la enfermedad a finales del 2019, fue defendida con fuerza por la administración estadounidense liderada por el expresidente Donald Trump, basándose en informaciones de sus servicios de inteligencia.
