MojNews- Britain has not seen any evidence that the new coronavirus is man-made, UK Health Minister Matt Hancock said, as quoted by Reuters.

Also, Sky News reported earlier in the day, citing its Whitehall sources, that London's position is that the strain of coronavirus was highly likely first passed from animals to humans naturally and is not linked to a laboratory.

Earlier, the World Health Organisation refuted allegations made by US President Donald Trump and some members of his administration about the artificial origin of the COVID-19 virus.
