Geneva, July 10 (RHC)-- An advance team from the World Health Organization (WHO) has left for China to organize an investigation into the origins of the coronavirus, a spokeswoman said.
The two WHO experts, specialists in animal science and epidemiology, will work with Chinese scientists to determine the scope and itinerary of the investigation, WHO spokeswoman Margaret Harris told a UN briefing.
The WHO will have no role in an independent panel, announced on Thursday, to review the global handling of pandemic, Harris said, adding: "From now on it is completely hands off."
