CSIR Director slams Chinese report on origin of Covid-19, calls it ‘faulty’
Council of Scientific and Industrial Research Director General Dr Shekhar C Mande on December 1 slammed dubious Chinese report which claimed that Covid-19 has origins in India or Bangladesh. “A Chinese paper has been submitted for consideration of publication in Lancet, claiming India as origin of SARS COV2 virus. It hasn’t been peer-reviewed yet. The study is badly done and won't stand the scrutiny of peer-review as its methodology is faulty,” said Dr Mande.
