Follow Feb. 11, 2021 Last March, just weeks after the first few cases of COVID-19 started trickling into the Middle East, Chinese state-controlled broadcaster CGTN published a video designed to combat alleged disinformation on the virus’ origins. The video was in Arabic. The Chinese narrator, who calls herself Ms.V, explains in perfect Arabic that COVID-19 could not have originated at a food market in Wuhan and points to several other possible sources – including the October 2019 Military World Games in that city, where athletes from over 100 countries competed. “It is expected that patient zero in China came from outside China,” Ms.V says, as translated by Haaretz. While she calls this a novel “explanation” for the source of COVID, the English subtitle opts for the word “interpretation.”
