Wuhan Lab Leak Coverup Unraveling
Hotair ^ | 11/30/2023 | David Strom

Posted on 11/30/2023 8:52:15 PM PST by SeekAndFind

Sky News is doing the work that our own MSM refuses to do.

Ever since it emerged, the origins of COVID should have been one of the top two or three stories in the world. After all, the disease itself was ravaging the world, the responses to the virus were doing even more damage, and the people in charge of responding to the virus were, at the very least, suspects in the case.

Yet even discussion of the possibility of a lab leak was suppressed, and anybody who brought up the possibility was labeled a conspiracy theorist. Social media sites banned people from discussing the matter, and reporters pretended that the issue was settled because Saint Fauci said so.

Those of us who argued–based on voluminous if not conclusive evidence–that the virus likely leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology were labeled cranks. We were scoffed at, ridiculed, and deplatformed. It didn’t matter if you were a Harvard epidemiologist or an average Joe on a barstool; you were persona non grata in polite society.

There are cracks in the stone wall developing. Yesterday I wrote about the British senior minister who dropped the word that the government thought the “novel virus” was likely man-made–he used this as an excuse for the horrible response in Britain–and now Sky News has snagged an interview with Fauci’s boss during the pandemic.

Dr. Kadlec, The former Assist. Sec. for Preparedness and Response at HHS says Dr Fauci, Dr. Collins and himself decided to divert attention away from the lab leak theory because they were afraid of what would be revealed, as well as their guilt and the public response. Listen Carefully… pic.twitter.com/WYhTdBSUhU

In the interview, he describes how he, Fauci, and Dr. Collins decided to suppress the lab leak theory because it would reflect badly on the US government. After all, Fauci had poured millions into gain of function research in Wuhan, and it seemed possible to likely that US funds had helped create the virus.

That’s a bad look. For Fauci, Collins, and the US government as a whole. Best to suppress the idea.

A whistleblower has come forward to claim CIA analysts who favoured the COVID-19 lab leak theory were bribed to change their position.https://t.co/A7QND5tSAZ

As I and others reported earlier, Fauci paid off scientists outside the NIH to debunk the lab leak theory and the CIA bribed their own analysts with large bonuses for downplaying the possibility of a lab leak. None of this is new information; what is new is that one of the people who was involved in the decision making is admitting it now that the pandemic is largely in the rear-view mirror.

Even the fact that government officials lied and admitted it is not new; Deborah Birx wrote a book about her experiences during the height of COVID and was very proud that she and others lied to Trump about how long they intended to shut down the country. The whole “14 Days to Stop the Spread” was never their goal–they just needed Trump to buy the first tranche so that he would be prepared to buy the second.

In for a penny, in for a pound.

Still, the American media has been resolute in suppressing the story. They bought into it early on–probably knowing that it was sketchy–and they would rather it go away until they can write tell-all books a few years from now.

The “now it can be told” genre sells, after all. But until we are firmly in a post-Trump era, it is unlikely that anybody here, outside the alternative media, will touch this. I hope I am wrong–after all, the scandal would make for juicy copy.

But for now, it will only be alternative media that keep plugging away.

It wasn’t a leak. It was deliberate. The “leak” is a fallback position from the original lie that the disease emerged naturally from seafood markets and bat soup.

When it’s admitted that it was lab made, then it HAS to be a leak, doesn’t it?

Bottom line, fall of 2019 Wuhan and Hong Kong were wracked with increasingly violent protests that were threatening to spread across China. The Tiennamen Sqaure solution is a non starter in this day and age. They could get away with that in the 80s as a hermit empire. But today the financial and trade backlash would destroy them.
Then the Trump problem was getting bad. His tariffs were hurting them bad, and his runaway freight train economy was headed straight to reelection.

A minor SARS variant was a method to lock everyone indoors and kill the protests. The Chinese released it, flooded youtube with videos of people collapsing in the streets, guys in bunny suits spraying disinfectant, etc.
The DC/Wall Street/Dem and GOPe axis was thrilled at the idea of killing Trump’s economy and bringing in mail in voting. Trump is a germophobe and that was east to exploit.

And THAT is the story.

Deliberate... not a leak. That is the fallback cover story.

Guess who awarded Fauci with a Presidential Commendation?

The Wuhan lab leak: another "thoroughly debunked conspiracy theory" that turned out to be true.

For anyone who cared to listen, we've known about the Wuhan lab leak since May 2020 when NBC London reported that British intelligence sources revealed there was no cellphone activity in the Wuhan lab from Oct. 7 through Oct. 24, 2019, and that there may have been a "hazardous event" sometime between Oct. 6 and Oct. 11.

There is absolutely NO evidence that SARS-CoV-2 was the result of a lab leak.

Charlatans keep pushing the lab leak story as a way to insinuate that the SARS-CoV-2 virus was created. Humans have not reached the technological advancement necessary to actually create a virus, but nevermind that. Something does not have to be physically possible to become a conspiracy theory.

All of the evidence points to an animal to human transmission occurring at the Huanan Wholesale Seafood Market. All of the evidence also points to the virus originating in bats.

Pathogens have crossed into humans from animal sources since humans have existed. Why do some people want to believe that this didn’t happen, when history shows us that it happens over and over?

When you look at the history and the scope of the bioweapons industry, it’s ludicrous to think our enemies haven’t had multiple projects underway targeting us for untold decades and longer.

To think they haven’t already pulled the trigger on some of these projects is even stupider.

I’d like to see Fauci tied up and injected with marburg virus and a few others, then placed into a net cage filled with sandflies, like he did those poor beagle pups. Then take his miserable corpse out and burn it.

No one is saying a virus was made from scratch. It is very possible to modify a virus, though, and gain-of-function exactly does that.

Where are you getting your science from? This is common knowledge I am providing you.

It was an intentional leak. It was the most critical component in stealing the election.

This is a rare example of both the conspiracy theory and the official story being completely plausible, and both right.

Anyone who’s ever studied yersinia pestis (the bubonic plague) and its airborne variants knows that genetic variation explains how it could be lethal to some, relatively mild to others... AND knows that the very factors that provided resilience to that nasty can contribute to gastrointestinal problems like Crohn’s Disease.

So it’s entirely possible that COVID was released, mutated, and engineered vaccines inadvertently exposed people who already had a strong immunity to the virus to an immune system going into overdrive.

Long COVID has its precedents all the way back to the pestis in the 13th century. There’s no such thing as a vaccine that some people won’t have an adverse reaction to unless it can be engineered not to trigger an autoimmune overreaction.

Everyone knows about the cowpox vaccine, and penicillin. For the vast majority of people, these present no risk. But it’s still possible for some genetic factors to adversely affect a small population. Basically, the only reason we don’t see it is the fact that the susceptible genes are suppressed through population movement and inheritance.

Manipulating the genome of viruses has been a key element of gene therapy research for many decades. Altering the binding repertoire of specific viruses is particularly easy with current molecular biology tools - and is an approach that is routinely used to target viral vectors to specific cell receptors and cell types. It was clear that Covid-19 came from the Wuhan lab from day one.

Just like we birthers. The pattern of marginalizing a threatening truth has been repeated over and over again.

Yes. Covid was a premeditated bio weapon attack. The timing was just too perfect.

When a story comes out and they are quick to stifle your questioning to the point of destroying you and your family and throwing you in jail you know something stinks. By the time the truth finally comes out no one cares and NO ONE IS PUNISHED FOR IT

Did you forget the sarc tag?
