There is 'no doubt' Communist China has a biological weapons program

While it looks a "very low" chance the deadly COVID-19 virus was created in a Chinese military laboratory, "there's absolutely no doubt in my mind China has a biological weapons program," says the Executive Director of the Australian Strategic Policy Institute Peter Jennings.

"Any biological weapons laboratory would be very disappointed to produce an agent that was going to kill only 1 per cent of the population," Mr Jennings told Sky News host Andrew Bolt.

"I think it was far more likely to have emerged from one of these 'wet-markets' as a number of coronaviruses have in the past from China".

He did say he thought China were operating a biological weapons program and had the capacity to do so.

"It's clear that they have the scientific capability to do this at an extremely advanced way, in a way that only a small number of countries would be able to".
