China DENIES Entry to World Health Organization

A World Health Organization (WHO) team investigating Covid-19 has been denied entry into China.

The WHO members were due to investigate the origins of Covid-19 in the city of Wuhan.

The virus was first detected in late 2019, with the outbreak linked to a wet market in the city.

The WHO said the problem to gaining entry into the country was a lack of visa clearances.

Beijing had agreed to the investigation in December after months of intense negotiations.
