Former Biden COVID Official: A Breach in a Wuhan Laboratory Could Have Triggered a Pandemic

By ,

Former White House National Security Council pandemic official Dr. Raj Panjabi has now publicly speculated that a laboratory breach in Wuhan, China, may have been the source of COVID-19.

Yesterday at the annual Forbes Healthcare Summit, Panjabi stated, “It is plausible that Covid originated in a laboratory accident in Wuhan,” as reported by The Daily Mail. “We have got to do more to keep labs safe.”

Recall that in May 2020, Biden referred to former President Donald Trump’s assertion that Covid originated from erroneous Chinese experiments as “nakedly xenophobic.” However, numerous scientists and US government officials, including the FBI and the Department of Energy, now consider it to be the most probable source of the pandemic.

Panjabi further cautioned that the likelihood of future pandemics increasing globally is expanding.

“There is a 50 percent risk one will happen in the next 25 years. This is because of globalization, or what I call the three Ps,” he said.

These “three Ps” given by Panjabi are “pathogen spillover,” when diseases leap from animals to humans; “planes,” since they encourage global travel; and “poor public health systems that are shattered and lack investment.”

Even before the COVID-19 pandemic, the Wuhan Institute of Virology was subject to scrutiny due to its failure to furnish mandatory safety and security information after receiving funding from the U.S. government.

The U.S. government has appeared divided regarding the laboratory or natural origin of COVID.

It is worth noting that intelligence agencies initially provided assurances regarding the Wuhan wet market as the authentic source of COVID-19. However, similar to the “intelligence experts” who endorsed a letter speculating on the Russian origin of the Hunter Biden Laptop, intelligence agencies seem to have an unsatisfactory history of informing the public about the truth.

 

Fauci Accomplice Peter Daszak, Who Claimed to Have Been Working with CIA, Awarded NIH Grant to Study Bat Coronavirus in Asia

By ,

Dr. Peter Daszak, who helped fund the gain of function research at China’s Wuhan Institute of Virology, was just awarded a new grant to study bat viruses in Myanmar, Laos, and Vietnam.

This comes despite documentation and email evidence of Dr. Peter Daszak admitting that he and Fauci were doing work in collaboration with the Chinese virologists at the Wuhan virology lab.

On March 28, 2016, Dr. Peter Daszak described exactly how scientists could create a virus in a China lab that would lead to a global coronavirus pandemic.

Dr. Daszak: We found other coronaviruses in bats a whole host of them. Some of them looked very similar to SARS so we sequenced the spike protein, the protein that attaches to cells. Then we, well I didn’t do this work my colleagues in China did the work, you create pseuda-particles. You create a spike proteins from those viruses simply bind to human cells. each step of this you move closer and closer to this virus could really become pathogenic to people.

Interestingly enough, Dr. Andrew Huff, vice president of EcoHealth Alliance, claimed back in January of 2022 that Peter Daszak openly told him that he works for the Central Intelligence Agency and that the company is essentially a “front” for the CIA.

In a series of tweets posted on Jan. 12, Huff wrote:

For the Record: In 2015, Dr. Peter Daszak stopped me as we were leaving work late at night, and asked me if he should work with the CIA. I was shocked given my experience in security. Over the next 2 months he gave me updates on 3 separate occasions about his work with the CIA.

When he asked me the question I stated “Peter, it never hurts to talk with them and there could potentially be money in it.” Meanwhile, I was cringing that he told me this, in a non classified setting (a SCIF), to a person that was not “read-in,” and to a uncleared person (me).

Then, over the next two months at the break area while getting coffee, or between meetings, he stated that they were interested in the places that we were working, the people involved, the data that we were collecting, and that the work with them was proceeding.

Looking back, I now believe that EcoHealth Alliance was a CIA front organization to collect viral samples and to collect intelligence on foreign laboratory capacity. There was no way that the data collected or the models being developed, could predict transmission or pandemics.

Contextually, EcoHealth was barely solvent and it was common place to lay off employees with the ebb and flow of federal and private funding. Peter would do anything or say anything to obtain funding. Intelligence organizations often target people in financial distress.

From the CIA’s perspective, it was a great plan in my opinion, if what Dr. Peter Daszak said was true. Since it was common place for Peter to lie, I didn’t necessarily believe him when he told me. However…

Based on the past two months of the US government spending millions of dollars surveilling me and MTRX INC employees, including military aircraft, attempting to destroy my house, bugging everything in it, stealing my property, and hacking all my devices, I believe that the worst is likely true.

“EcoHealth Alliance is likely a CIA front organization. COVID-19 is the biggest intelligence failure since 9/11,” wrote Huff. “The coverup is the greatest in US History, far worse than the Iran-Contra scandal. The truth is coming out and I will testify this under oath.”

In a separate series of posts, Huff said that he “wouldn’t be surprised if the CIA/IC community orchestrated the COVID coverup acting as an intermediary between Fauci, Collins, Daszak, Baric, and many others. At best, it was the biggest criminal conspiracy in U.S. history by bureaucrats or political appointees.”

According to a report detailed on Substack by an independent journalist called Kanekoa, Huff earned his Ph.D in environmental health with a specialty in emerging diseases before he became associate vice president of EcoHealth Alliance. While working for the firm, he says he was tasked with finding “novel methods of bio-surveillance, data analytics, and visualization for disease detection.”

The company, which is led by Daszak, receives funding from a number of U.S. government agencies including the National Institutes of Health and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, which is led by Joe Biden’s chief medical adviser, Dr. Anthony Fauci.

EcoHealth Alliance, Kanekoa notes, partnered with Dr. Ralph Baric of the University of North Carolina as well as Dr. Shi Zhengli of the Wuhan Institute of Virology to conduct gain of function research on bat-borne viruses found in China before the COVID-19 pandemic initially began.

The report said that Daszak led the screening of “thousands of bat samples for novel coronaviruses,” which also involved “screening people who work with live animals.”

These revelations add to the growing body of evidence that COVID-19 was created at the Wuhan lab and either ‘escaped’ somehow or was developed as a bioweapon and intentionally released, likely to occupy then-President Donald Trump with something other than continuing to punish China with tariffs in a bid to level the playing field when it came to bilateral trade.

Former CDC Director Claims Fauci Funded Gain of Function, Knowingly Misled Congress

By ,

A former Center for Disease Control and Prevention director has come out against both Dr. Anthony Fauci and NIH Director Francis Collins, for their supposed role in spreading a narrative about COVID that they knew was false.

The former CDC director in question is Robert Redfield, a man who’s since been branded with the scarlet letter of “conspiracy theorist” for supporting the idea that COVID-19 came from the Wuhan Institute of Virology and not the wet market. 

The branding has had a decidedly negative effect on both his perceived credibility as well as his public image, even provoking death threats. Despite the negative press and threats on his life Redfield continues to push back against what he calls “the Narrative”. Redfield claims that the real “conspiracy is Collins, Fauci, and the established scientific community.”

“Tony and I are friends, but we don’t agree on this at all,” Redfield said in an interview published in Thacker’s Disinformation Chronicle newsletter. “Everyone had to agree to the narrative”.

This “narrative”, as Redfield calls it, was pushed by Fauci and then-National Institutes of Health Director Francis Collins that SARS-CoV-2 emerged from a “wet market” in Wuhan, not the Fauci-funded Wuhan Institute of Virology miles away, to avoid becoming a public target of the two officials, he said.

Redfield, a virologist, says that he told immunologist Anthony Fauci from the “second or third week in January” 2020 that he was “very concerned that he (Fauci) was championing this theory that it came from animals.”

Redfield claims that certain particulars regarding the novel coronavirus, such as the furin cleavage site and the “human” sequence in it, make clear that it’s not from bats, he said. “This thing was manipulated, orchestrated. That cleavage site was created.”

According to Redfield, the transmission doesn’t make sense under natural evolution. 

“You have a virus that is one of the most infectious viruses in the history of humanity, and yet that virus no longer can infect the bat? … No, this is highly abnormal.”

Redfield also believes that the Lancet spring 2020 letter that lumped in the lab-leak hypothesis with “conspiracy theories” was “orchestrated … under the direction of Fauci and Collins, trying to nip any attempt to have an honest investigation of the pandemic’s origin… There was nothing scientific about that letter. It was just an attempt to intimidate people,”

Scientific American accused Redfield of promoting a conspiracy theory that was somehow based on anti-Chinese “xenophobia,” for even mentioning the possibility that the virus came out of Wuhan, a lab that was actually being funded by the West. Redfield suspects that this was due to Fauci’s influence at that publication.

“I was threatened, my life was threatened… I have letters I got from prominent scientists, that previously gave me awards, telling me that the best thing I could do for the world was to shoot myself because of what I said.”

Redfield believes that “Fauci and Collins were behind a lot of” the conspiracy claims and the “anti-Asian hate” claims in regards to the lab-leak theory, and that he plans to elaborate in a book once the Chinese Communist Party leadership changes. Redfield said “big publishers” frowned on his book proposal because it promotes the lab-leak theory.

Paul Thacker, a former Senate Finance Committee investigator, noted that newly released emails show January 2020 discussions within NIH about Fauci’s funding of the EcoHealth Alliance and a 2015 paper in Nature about the Wuhan lab manipulating coronaviruses.

“Yeah, I think Tony tried to kill” the inquiries into the Wuhan funding and lab experiments, Redfield said, while clarifying that “I don’t believe there was any intent to harm people” through suppression. NIAID didn’t immediately respond to a request for Fauci’s response. Neither did Collins, who remains at NIH as head of the molecular genetics section.

“The whole thing is scientific arrogance. There was an arrogance that they could contain this, that it wouldn’t escape it,” he said. “I worked with the Chinese CDC for many years while in the military and while at the University of Maryland. And viruses get out of labs. That’s just the nature of the beast.”
