GENEVA: An international expert team that visited China to investigate the origins of Covid-19 has postponed publishing their report, which will now likely appear next week, the WHO said on Tuesday.
"The report is simply not ready", World Health Organisation spokesman Christian Lindmeier told reporters. "What we hear from the technical experts, from the mission members, is that the report most likely will come out now next week," he added.
The highly-anticipated report is expected to examine a range of theories about how the virus first jumped from animals to humans, which the experts looked into during their four-week mission to Wuhan -- the city where the first Covid-19 cases were identified.
