| Lead Scientist For COVID Vaccine Vial Maker Indicted For Stealing Technology For China. |
| 2021-09-06 |
| [National Pulse] A former lead scientist for Corning Inc. — a technology company manufacturing glass vials for COVID-19 vaccines — was indicted for stealing company technology for use in China, including Chinese Communist Party-sanctioned business ventures. Corning’s Wang Ji was indicted on charges of economic espionage, theft of trade secrets, and unlawful exports. Wang, who worked for the company from 1998 to 2019, was a lead scientist on a Corning project developing optical laser fibers to attack hostile drones, which counted $16 million in funding from the U.S. government’s Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). He allegedly stole files relevant to the project to set up a business using the same technology in China and was in negotiations with several Chinese Communist Party authorities in the city of Tianjian to set up the company. The indictment follows Corning, which supplies pharmaceutical companies such as Pfizer, receiving hundreds of millions of dollars from the U.S. government to manufacture glass vials for COVID-19 vaccines.

| #3 But, they don't seem to be able to steal the secret of the vaccine itself. No Chinese well placed at Moderna or Biontech? It's about fiber optics for lasers. Very serious. From defense against UAVs and arty to speed of light offensive/defensive weapons on aircraft. Then there are industrial uses such as materials processing/manufacturing. It's like the elites who run this country are purposely trying to crash this country and make us subservient to the Chinese. |

| #2 If you read the story, it didn't have anything to do with vaccines, except that they made the bottles. It's about fiber optics for lasers. |
