COVID 'The Truth Leaks Out'
[American Greatness] The quest for truth-in-COVID did pick up some steam in late spring 2021.

Not about the vaccine, though.

About the origins of the virus.

From the first days of the epidemic, strong circumstantial evidence suggested Sars-CoV-2 had leaked from a Chinese lab. Both the virus itself and the facts around its emergence pointed to human intervention.

Wuhan, the city of 10 million people where the first cases were found, is home to China’s most important viral research laboratory, the Wuhan Institute of Virology. The institute aggressively researched bat coronaviruses, which China had viewed as a serious risk since the original SARS outbreak in 2003.

In 2017 the institute opened China’s first Biosafety Level 4 laboratory. Level 4 labs are the most secure available, designed to handle deadly pathogens such as Ebola. But just months after the lab opened, U.S. State Department officials visited and reported in a cable to Washington that the new facility was at risk of a serious accident. They found "a serious shortage of appropriately trained technicians and investigators needed to safely operate this high-containment laboratory."

The troubled lab was located only miles from the first cluster of cases in central Wuhan. And it had worked with a virus very similar to Sars-CoV-2 known as RaTG13 (or RaBtCov/4991), which had been found in a cave in 2013 after several miners working there became seriously ill with pneumonia.

#1 Bio weapon is an Asian passion. Use of infection used many times against their own people. They have a long history in this use and attacking other peoples is not a concern for them. People to them are but blades of grass.

#2 It's working out so well for them right now. They are locking themselves down into a worse recession than the one that was supposed to usher in the 1000 year reich permanent dem rule. And their biggest custoners are not buying as much now.

Yes, a big win for them. /sarc

#3 India leads the charge"In what may be the first legal case of its kind globally, a petitioner in India is seeking to prosecute Bill Gates, Indian vaccine czar Adar Poonawalla, and Indian government and public health officials over the death of a 23-year-old man who died after receiving AstraZeneca’s Covishield vaccine." Died same day upon being vaxed.

#5 My level of concern over the origins of COVID-19 has decreased greatly. Evidence for this has been thoroughly hidden and or buried along with those "in the know" back in the PRC over the last 2 years. I am more concerned about the next viral agent of mass destruction. Stay tuned.
