In this May 13, 2021, photo, President Joe Biden speaks in the Roosevelt Room of the White House in Washington.

Biden said Wednesday there is insufficient evidence to conclude “whether it emerged from human contact with an infected animal or from a laboratory accident.” (AP Photo/Evan Vucci) **FILE**
