Although if we she want patient zero then it wasn’t “her” - but it was that biogen conference.” That did it.

Another thing, this article states that “Belmont native Jie Li”, but then it suggests she is a Chinese citizen. Is she an American citizen or a Chinese citizen?

[mewzilla]

If true, that Blacksburg, VA connection is interesting...

[FamiliarFace]

Maybe it didn’t suggest she is a Chinese citizen. I’m not sure now why I thought she was.

She picked a bad time to lose her company provided health insurance.

Ames Iowa? That’s interesting. Is she associated with the college there?

P;ossibly more impoetantly, was she associated with the National Animal Disease Lab there? The one that has the bad pathogens (Anthrax, etc).

[Freedom of Speech Wins]

Ames, Iowa I think came up in the anthrax case.

What happened to the student you caught spying at NASA?

Qiu’s removal from Winnipeg deadly disease conference in July is suspicious too:

Not a damn thing. She was gathering old space shuttle specs from a secure room. But, the specs were way before final design and flawed. Frankly, even final design was flawed.

I was out of the process on the decision on what to do and the powers that be decided that it was of no consequence. Yes, what she took wasn't secret any more, but the fact that she did it should have caused her to be kicked out of the country. Hell, if I was off by 15 minutes on my task timesheet I could have been fined and fired by the auditors. FYI, I was working for NASA via LORAL contract at the time. Loral, the company that sold rocket tech to China.

Thanks for the followup. America needs to sharpen up.

2020 - Jie Li of Belmont will infect Biogen, SF, and then other locales
before she flees back to China.

2019 - Biogen partners with Vir Biotechnology in 2019.

Plan is about corona virus(es).

Vir Biotechnology - founded by Bill Gates and Mike Bloomberg and Gates Family Fund.
Associated with non-profit to push mandatory vaccines, and
Vir Biotechnology partners with Arch Partners [San Francisco] buys vaccine research from
Oregon HealthSU (which remained funded by Oregon taxpayers) as OHSU is given Vir Biotechnology stock.

2020 - Vir Biotechnology, Biogen, and Chinese Wuxi Biologics work together.

Vir Biotechnology - Stock up by more than 300%, as it announces it is working on monoclonal antibodies
for perhaps its very own, now transmitted around the world, coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2

chinese would have executed her by firing squad.
