According to the broadcaster, the "gigantic catalog of information" held by the American intelligence community contains "genetic blueprints" taken from virus samples being studied in a Wuhan laboratory.
According to a number of channel sources, this information could point to the source of the COVID-19 outbreak.
At the same time, it remains unknown how the American special services gained access to the data set.
As the source told the TV channel, usually the systems involved in the creation and processing of such genetic data are connected to "external cloud servers", which makes it possible to hack them.
The article clarifies that processing such a volume of data requires a lot of computing power.
To do this, intelligence services rely on supercomputers used by the Department of Energy's national laboratories.
In addition, human resources are required to process the data, including government scientists who are skilled enough to decipher complex genetic sequencing data and have the necessary clearance, as well as speak the Mandarin dialect, the report said.
Earlier, The Hill reported that members of the US House of Representatives from the Republican Party conducted an investigation into the origin of the coronavirus.
They claim that the virus was leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology as the cause of the pandemic.
The article says that the Republicans drew up the report, relying on open data and indirect messages.
At the same time, Chinese scientists, citing an article in the journal Science China Life Sciences, stated that COVID-19 is of natural origin.
