A world exclusive report on the document revealing China's "batty science" turned out to be a straightforward timeline and summary of open-source reporting from 2013 to late April, evidence shows.

In Daily Telegraph's six-page story on the dossier published on May 2, neither genuinely new information of the alleged Beijing's cover-up on the virus origin nor direct evidence of the lab leakage theory have been given out, according to a source of The Guardian who had reached out the file.

"Material relevant to the Wuhan lab leakage theory makes up only a small portion of the file, and it does not include any conclusive findings," wrote on The Guardian.

Allan Behm, the head of the international and security affairs program at the Australia Institute and a former senior defense official, said the reporting had made "a mountain out of a molehill," saying he would attach no significance to it whatsoever.

Former Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd has also condemned the fabricated news reports by Rupert Murdoch's media outlets that fan the conspiracy theory in a previous interview, saying their aim is just to get U.S. President Donald Trump re-elected.

"Having delivered its political ordinance in support of Trump and Pompeo, the Murdoch story carefully and cleverly seeks to cover its traces by stating repeatedly that nothing is yet proven about the laboratory leak," he argued.

Similar fake reports have been debunked by U.S. media as well. 

In a file circulating among the U.S. Capitol Hill, report compilers claim that the coronavirus escaped from a Chinese lab. However, the report is filled with incorrect information, according to the Daily Beast, an American news and opinion website focused on politics and pop culture.

The evidence and details supporting the "hazardous event" at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in October last year turned out to be collected from social media postings, cellphone location data and commercial satellite imagery.

Plenty of scientific evidence has proven that the virus is from nature, just as the coronaviruses that cause SARS and MERS. It is a consensus that the global scientific community has reached so far.

"Placing blame on another country is irrational," said Vincent Racaniello, professor of microbiology and immunology in the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Columbia University, in an interview with CCTV recently.
