Sone information may be kept under wraps for national security reasons
U.S. President Joe Biden has signed a bill requiring all information relating to the origins of COVID-19 be declassified.
Biden says he shares the Congress goal of releasing as much information as possible about the virus.
But, he says his Administration will still keep national security in mind when deciding what to publish.
The bill passed unanimously in the Senate and House of Representatives before being sent to the White House.
For several months now, Washington has been debating the origins of the virus.
It follows a report by the U.S. Energy Department which says the pandemic arose from a lab leak.
