On Wednesday, US authorities alleged that Chinese hackers in collaboration with Chinese government-affiliated groups were trying to obtain Coronavirus data on treatments and vaccines. 


In response, foreign ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said: "China expresses strong dissatisfaction and firm opposition to such smearing."


"Judging from past records, the US has carried out the largest cyber theft operations worldwide," Zhao said.


According to him, China "also leading the world in COVID-19 vaccine research and treatment", and therefore has more reason to worry about cyber espionage.
