'''Wuhan Institute of Virology''' is a laboratory in Wuhan, China to study viruses administered by the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The lab is near the site where the [[Wuhan virus]] was first detected in 2019. The lab was found in 1956 as the Wuhan Microbiology Laboratory. In 2015, the lab was upgraded to biosafety level 4 (BSL–4) with the help of French engineers and a grant of $3.7 million from the U.S. National institutes of health. It is first such lab in China.
