A medical researcher said to be on the “verge of making very significant” coronavirus findings was found shot to death over the weekend in Pennsylvania, officials said. Bing Liu, 37, a researcher for the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, was found dead Saturday inside a home in Ross Township, north of Pittsburgh, the Allegheny County Medical Examiner said. He had been shot in the head and neck, the agency said. An hour after Liu's body was discovered, a second person, Hao Gu, 46, was found dead inside a car less than a mile away, the agency said. Ross Township Police Detective Sgt. Brian Kohlhepp told the Associated Press that the men “appeared to be connected beyond their proximity to each other.” A motive for the killings remained unknown, and the relationship between the men was also unclear.

Liu, who earned a PhD in computational science from the National University of Singapore, worked as a postdoctoral fellow at Carnegie Mellon University before becoming a research associate at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. In a statement, the University of Pittsburgh described him as an excellent mentor and prolific researcher who had co-authored more than 30 papers. His work focused on systems biology. “Bing was on the verge of making very significant findings toward understanding the cellular mechanisms that underlie SARS-CoV-2 infection and the cellular basis of the following complications,” the school said. “We will make an effort to complete what he started in an effort to pay homage to his scientific excellence.”

Now, it is starting to look like two murders. Imagine that!

The hitman sometimes needs to be hit.

Pitt and UPMC employ thousands of disease researchers, a whole lot of them Asian, and THIS was the particular guy who was about to cure COVID-19?

Someone no doubt will one day kill me just as I am on the verge of making the Green Bay Packers roster as the starting tight-end.

On the heels of the Plandemic film, being removed repeatedly from YouTube . . . an inconvenient development, to say the least.

I have a hard time thinking that this particular researcher at Pitt was the single greatest threat on Earth to the communists in China. He’s the guy they needed to whack? Why him? Was he the absolute best in the world? Did they destroy his notes too?

My money is on a homosexual relationship gone bad.

Problem is going to be that this will be one of those cases that takes a LOOOOOOOONG time to crack.

The Chinese community is noted for being closed to outsiders. And I doubt there is a Mandarin-speaking homicide detective within 1500 miles of Pittsburgh.

I'm sure our "intelligence" community will get right on it.

...just as soon as they get their daily briefing/marching orders from deep state central.

The shooter committed suicide right after the shooting and knew the victim.

Lover’s quarrel perhaps.

Word on the street here is that it was just the Chinese Communist Party Mafia tying up loose ends of people who knew too much. Local media initially reported only the murder and suggested the guy in the car was the perp and a suicide. They wouldn't (or couldn't) even identify him.


I remember when the internet first opened it was possible to connect with Chinese people, and of course I being curious, would engage them as well as Russian people. Every single Chinese was very careful not to chit chat. There were Chinese women looking for husbands, but no way any Chinese would chit chat about general subjects. Never.

Now, it is not possible to chat with someone in China at all. Chess.com does not even have participants in China. China is one scary nation. I know there are many good people in China, however, but the totalitarian government is so oppressive.

I am wondering if he made comments on social media that offended the CCP mafia, and if social media would provide clues?

Seth Rich shot in the back.
Epstein found dead after a guard “took an extended break.”
Pitt researcher on the trail of the SARS-COV-2 virus shot to death.

It’s like they don’t even try to cover things up these days.

Wow. Did the researcher know too much about Hillary?

It’s like We are living in post WW1 Germany.

Local news is reporting he is survived by his wife, so not sure about the "lover's quarrel" angle.
