suggesting that the coronavirus escaped from an American military lab,

These theories, promoted by officials, academics, central propaganda outlets

and on social media, have gained wider currency in China.

They risk further muddying inquiries into the source of the virus

and aggravating already frayed relations between the world’s top two powers

at a time when cooperation is badly needed.

“This not only contributes to the further deterioration of U.S.-China relations

but also makes it even less likely for the two countries to work together

to face a common challenge,”

“The point is to really saturate the airwaves with all of this,

which most average Chinese will not be able to see behind,”

“A lot of it is anticipating and trying fend off, pre-emptively,

this potential American study by the intelligence community.”

“The United States has been accusing China of being opaque

on the issue of tracing the origins of the virus and falsely accusing China

but critics say Lee gave the conspiracists undeserved air time.
