Sneaking of Corona virus related virus shows a level of interest , sabotage and espionage that is more than suspect:
Border Patrol Stopped a Chinese Biologist Carrying Viable SARS, MERS Viruses at Detroit Airport in 2018
U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents at Detroit Metro Airport stopped a Chinese scientist carrying vials believed to contain the MERS and SARS viruses in November 2018 — just over a year before the first reported Wuhan coronavirus case, according to an FBI tactical intelligence report...
“Inspection of the writing on the vials and the stated recipient led inspection personnel to believe the materials contained within the vials may be viable Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) materials,” the report reads. The vials were labeled “Antibodies”, and the unnamed scientist said he was asked to deliver them to a researcher at a U.S. institute.
The report also lays out a pattern of Chinese interference, detailing two other cases from May 2018 and September 2019, in which different Chinese nationals tried to enter the U.S. with undeclared flu strains and suspected E. coli, respectively.

@ranny wa klist i find the report you have used to justify rather vague on certain specifics that make a credible report such as where the said passenger was coming from and what happened to him after. I expect such a man to be charged with terrorism or at least espionage. I have spent a good 30 mins on the web and can't find one case where a Chinese national has been charged as such.
The case of University professor Lieber is prominent though although it has been spun and and spun to try to use his case to give some credibility to coronavirus Wuhan Origin claims. Fact checking organizations Snope and Factcheck give their verdicts below.
Moreover, the US Sun, from which Yahoo aggregates your supporting story, does not have a reputation for cross checking the facts that can ruin a good story.
Claim
Harvard professor Charles Lieber was arrested for concealing funding from a Chinese lab supposedly connected to the origin of the new coronavirus.

What's True
Professor Charles Lieber was arrested in January 2020 for misleading federal authorities about funds he allegedly received from Wuhan University of Technology (WUT) and his connections to a Chinese government-sponsored recruitment program.
What's False
The conspiracy theory that the new coronavirus is a bioweapon developed in a lab is unfounded and has been dismissed by several leading researchers. Lieber has no known connections to the 2020 outbreak of coronavirus.
