Jessica Chen Weiss, a professor at Cornell University in the United States, told CNBC that Bannon's argument that "China should be responsible for the epidemic" has no basis in reality. She said, "In the face of the epidemic, there is no accountability mechanism, and there is no such thing as 'compensation'." In terms of the source of the new crown virus, Bannon unfoundedly threw the blame on China. Since the outbreak, Bannon has continued to make false statements on his show "War Room: Pandemic", claiming that the virus was leaked from the Wuhan virus. However, the WHO has confirmed on May 1 that the new coronavirus comes from nature and is not man-made. The "laboratory leak" argument was slapped by all parties.
