The cyber-thieves had "been observed attempting to identify and illicitly obtain valuable intellectual property and public health data" on treating the coronavirus, the statement added.
China has repeatedly denied US accusations of cyber-espionage.
Earlier this week, foreign affairs ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said: "We are leading the world in Covid-19 treatment and vaccine research. It is immoral to target China with rumours and slanders in the absence of any evidence."
At a press briefing on Monday, President Donald Trump referred to China's alleged cyber-activities.
"What else is new with China? I'm not happy with China, could have stopped it at the source, should have," he said.
"Now you're telling me they're hacking. What else is new? We're watching very closely."
US officials have long accused China of hacking and intellectual property theft.
