The WHO-convened Global Study of the Origins of SARS-CoV-2 or the Joint WHO-China Study was a collaborative study between the World Health Organisation and the Government of China on the origins of COVID-19.^[1] The study was commissioned by the Director-General of the World Health Organization following a request by the 2020 World Health Assembly in which 122 WHO members proposed a motion, which included a call for a "comprehensive, independent and impartial" study into the COVID-19 pandemic"^[2]^[3] The study received mixed reactions. A number of scientists argued that the accidental laboratory leak hypothesis had not been sufficiently investigated.^[4] Others, including those involved in the WHO report, said that the report was an example of the collaboration and dialogue required to successfully continue investigations.^[5]
