A Nigerian virologist said COVID-19 origins tracing should not be politicized but be based on concrete scientific evidence.
Oyewole Tomori, chairman of Nigeria's Expert Review Committee on COVID-19, told media that it would be difficult to specify the origins of the coronavirus, local daily the Leadership reported.
The lab leak theory has been dismissed by most mainstream scientists as "a fringe conspiracy theory" being promoted by the US government, said Tomori.
