Public health expert and director of the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security
It remains a priority to study the origins of COVID. While the evidence for accidental origin of COVID is not definitive, there is a substantial body of strong circumstantial evidence. US intelligence agencies remain divided. The WHO Director has said publicly there is not enough information to conclude one way or another, and the WHO SAGO committee just concluded its recent report saying it did not have sufficient evidence to definitively make judgements about COVID, and it is seeking additional clinical, epidemiologic and laboratory information.AI Verified (Jul 28, 2025)

Directly relevant to the lab-origin statement because it discusses whether the evidence supports accidental origin and explicitly says available evidence is not definitive.

Recorded answer abstain is correct: Inglesby says the evidence for accidental origin is not definitive, agencies are divided, and WHO lacks enough information to conclude.
