Chinese Regime Destroyed Evidence About Initial Virus Outbreak: Hong Kong Scientist

A well-known Hong Kong microbiologist is the latest to reveal information on how Beijing initially covered up China’s outbreak of the CCP virus, adding to a pile of evidence about authorities’ mismanagement of the pandemic crisis.

Professor Yuen Kwok-yung, an infectious disease expert at the University of Hong Kong (HKU), was among a team of experts headed by China’s top respiratory specialist Zhong Nanshan dispatched on a fact-finding mission to Wuhan, where the virus first broke out, on Jan. 19.

Now, more than 6 months later, Yuen told the BBC in an interview on July 27 that Chinese local authorities were slow to respond to the outbreak and had destroyed physical evidence about the outbreak.

“I do suspect that they have been doing some coverup locally at Wuhan. The local officials who are supposed to immediately relay the information have not allowed this to be done as readily as it should,” Yuen said.

He recalled his visit to the Huanan seafood market in Wuhan in January and said “there was nothing to see because the market was clean already.”

Wuhan authorities initially claimed that the virus likely originated from the market, though studies have since shown that some of Wuhan’s first patients had no link to the market.

He added: “You may say that the crime scene is already disturbed because the supermarket was cleared. We cannot identify any host which is giving the virus to humans.”

Beijing’s initial coverup of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, commonly known as the novel coronavirus, has been well-documented. In late December, authorities silenced eight doctors, among them ophthalmologist Li Wenliang, after they posted on Chinese social media about a new form of pneumonia that was spreading in the city of Wuhan.

Wonder if US spy agencies know a lot but can’t say anything.

As bad as all of this is, and its bad, the stuff they are doing to the people in the Yangtze valley during the floods is just as terrible.
Bunch of sick bastards, they better pray that the The Gorges stays standing up, if that thing fails, there wont be anything left of the CCP members.
Plus the coming food shortages over there are going to be biblical.
