London: The G7 leaders on Sunday called for a “timely, transparent, expert-led, and science-based WHO-convened” investigation into the origins of COVID-19, including, as recommended by the experts` report, in China.
In the Carbis Bay communique, the G7 leaders said, “Strengthening transparency and accountability, including reiterating our commitment to the full implementation of, and improved compliance with, the International Health Regulations 2005. This includes investigating, reporting and responding to outbreaks of unknown origin. We also call for a timely, transparent, expert-led, and science-based WHO-convened Phase 2 COVID-19 Origins study including, as recommended by the experts` report, in China.”
The origin of coronavirus that causes COVID-19 has remained a mystery even after over 1.5 years the first case of infection was reported in the Wuhan city of China.
On Thursday, the United States and the United Kingdom extended their support to a “timely, transparent and evidence-based independent process.”
Issuing the joint statement, Boris Johnson and Biden said they are determined to work together to overcome the current pandemic, which has reversed progress on improving the human condition, and to be better prepared in the future.
“We will work together to help increase global vaccine supply through investments in manufacturing of safe and effective vaccines and the materials needed to produce them. We will promote the timely availability of vaccines, key components and equipment by encouraging bilateral trade and investment and avoiding export restrictions or other supply chain disruption,” the statement read.
The G7 summit began formally on Friday as the leaders of the world`s most advanced economies gathered on the Cornish coast for the first time since the outbreak of global coronavirus pandemic.
The UK is the current G7 President. This is the 7th time UK is heading the G7. The theme selected by the UK for its G7 Presidency is `Build Back Better` in a nod to global recovery efforts post-COVID-19 pandemic.
