Parliamentary committee on biolaboratories to discuss possible US involvement in monkeypox

“The commission intends to discuss information from the Ministry of Defense about the possible involvement of US biological laboratories in the emergence of monkeypox,” he told RIA Novosti.

And the information of the Ministry of Defense, as always, "is informative and deserves full attention," the senator added.

Igor Kirillov, Chief of the Radiation, Chemical and Biological Defense Forces of the Russian Armed Forces, spoke earlier at a briefing during which he noted that monkeypox, according to the WHO report, was introduced from Nigeria, another state in which the biological infrastructure of the United States operates.
