REVEALED: U.S. government gave $3.7million grant to Wuhan lab at center of coronavirus leak scrutiny that was performing experiments on bats from the caves where the disease is believed to have originated

Agree. Senate committee investigation worthy...since they don’t seem to be holding any, at all. (I’m sure I’m missing all of the Senate investigations taking place.)

We need to push this, via emails, calls, faxes, tweets, FB, etc.

Thanks for bringing that post (#52, and info on the NIH Director) to my attention.

This is another thing the left would possibly try to blame Trump for...only....he’s an 0blama appointee...and, they already give Trump too much heck for firing those holdovers, when he does.

[Tilted Irish Kilt]

(from the article):" The Chinese laboratory at the center of scrutiny over a potential coronavirus leak has been using U.S. government money to carry out research on bats from the caves which scientists believe are the original source of the deadly outbreak."

"The Wuhan Institute of Virology undertook coronavirus experiments on mammals captured more than 1,000 miles away in Yunnan which were funded by a $3.7 million grant from the US government."

I can understand the need to study viri, but to support the Chinese government in such a study is an issue which demonstrates stupidity and willful ignorance;
the Chinese have already indicated that they want world domination, and wish to unseat the Untied States as a the dominant world power.
The Chinese have been the source of so many viri infections, one of which is, last known,
ongoing currently with swine virus which has devastated their current domestic pork stock.
The political and economic impact of the coronavirus (covid-19) infection is just such a "trojan horse" event that has brought the US to a standstill.
It's not as if the Chinese government has been honest in the past regarding viral infections; one has to reasonably question whether they have had regional virus outbreaks that have gone unreported in the past.
The Chinese have used subterfuge, extortion, and financial dominance to overcome lesser nations; they are known to have long-term goals and are known to have a "thirty year program" to dominance.
We should not have been financially supporting their subterfuge nor the achievement of their goals.

Again....I believe there’s more to this FUNDING, than what meets the eye.

Also just saw where WE are bringing back some of these experimental animals, to US, and feeding them to different species....for testing, in our biolabs.

Watch the documentary by The Epoch Times investigative journalist, Joshua Phillips - The Origin of Wuhan Coronavirus. It is excellent and also makes the UNC connection with the lab.

Why do we allow 350,000 Chinese students into this country to study at our universities? Why do we allow Confucius Centers? Because we are darn stupid!

[KC Burke]

Thanks.

I’ll probably steal that line.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I am tired of this “we”. I wasn’t asked about it, I wasn’t on any decision making body, I didn’t allow it. I would have said “HELL NO” if I was.

And it is not because of stupidity. It is because many US politicians and foundations and think tanks and corportate media are in BED with Chinese money. In other words, it is criminal corruption.

“Evidence mounts COVID-19 came from a lab in Wuhan”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CIHWaaJNktQ";

Sky News host Andrew Bolt says claims coronavirus came from a Wuhan exotic animal market were beginning to fall apart with a Chinese academic pointing the finger at dangerous virology labs.A scholar from the South China University of Technology wrote a report casting doubt on the claim revealing “bat was never a food source in Wuhan” and bat was never sold at the infamous wet market. ...”

Thanks for the info.

[GOPJ]

US Congressman Matt Gaetz said: 'I'm disgusted to learn that for years the US government has been funding dangerous and cruel animal experiments at the Wuhan Institute, which may have contributed to the global spread of coronavirus, and research at other labs in China that have virtually no oversight from US authorities.

Time to find out who's behind this crap... Name names... let's get it done.

[House Atreides]

Interesting that the article does NOT give the DATE OF THE GRANT!

HINT: Maybe because it was during the OBAMA presidency.

[BenLurkin]

Went to the link — found not date of when NIH funded this Red Chinese weapons research.

Odd omission, yes?

[BenLurkin]

See post #52, that is a good place to start.

Thanks.

Guess my nickname since 15 of Batman isn’t popular now.

It’s not just money—from Fauci and crew btw—as Dr Francis Boyle reported 2 months ago, under Obama we sold/gave then the weaponized virus. Boyle now thinks they made it even worse in Wuhan by adding nanotechnology that he speculates they got from the Harvard chemistry chair who had a lab of his own in Wuhan before getting arrested. This latest interview was with that wacky broadcaster out of Austin. I highly recommenf it.

He recommended checking out what Gen. Honore had to say about it being time to get the regular military involved in logistics. That was over on the wacky cable channel from the left:

http://www.msnbc.com/11th-hour/watch/lt-gen-honore-in-a-disaster-the-only-priority-should-be-saving-lives-81865285627

While over there I came across this interesting interview from Paul Rome’s, the Nobel prize winning economist:

http://www.msnbc.com/all-in/watch/nobel-prize-winner-we-should-be-testing-30-million-for-covid-19-daily-81912389636

And Yes, I feel dirty just having been over there. But I think the two interviews are worth watching.

ExTexasRedhead :" A scholar from the South China University of Technology wrote a report casting doubt on the claim revealing “bat was never a food source in Wuhan”
and bat was never sold at the infamous wet market. ...”

Two very telling statements !
If true, this statement pretty much sums up the fact that the Bio-Lab level 4 is the source of the infection.
Given the coronavirus infection's ability to harm other immunity cells, this disease also would have a delayed effect on the infected patients for possible further viral infections.
Perhaps designed to overcome a world economy, especially if your country is the only source for most medical prescriptions to overcome the infection.
The Chinese government, and its hold on the WHO , demonstrates that the two organizations are not to be trusted anymore.

Tilted Irish Kilt :" The Chinese government, and its hold on the WHO , demonstrates that the two organizations are not to be trusted anymore. "

Actually, since the WHO is organized under the United Nations, it makes all three organization highly suspect.
Especially suspect are all organizations who railed against President Trump when he closed international travel, and was called Xenophobic.
"All organizations" would also include any political organization which prefers to be 'contrarian for the sake of being contrarian',
and puts it's population needlessly at risk for death and disease for political and/ or economic advantage.
