DID WE LEARN NOTHING? NIH Funds Wuhan-Style Bat Lab at Colorado State University
Gateway Pundit ^ | 1-16-26 | Jim Hᴏft

It has been four years since the world was brought to its knees by a virus that many evidence-based reports now indicate leaked from a laboratory in Wuhan, China. You would think the federal government and the “experts” in the public health establishment would have learned their lesson.

You would be wrong.

Colorado State University (CSU) is moving full steam ahead with a massive, taxpayer-funded “Bat Resource Center.”

This new facility, which is bankrolled by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the very same agency that funded dangerous research in Wuhan, will import and breed exotic bats to experiment on them with deadly pathogens.

The facility is being touted by the university as a “critical resource” to study how bats carry viruses like Ebola, Nipah, and SARS-CoV-2 without getting sick.

According to documents uncovered by the watchdog group White Coat Waste Project, this isn’t just a simple animal shelter. It is a vivarium designed to house huge colonies of bats, the very same animals identified as the reservoir for the COVID-19 virus.

Several incidents at the site:

“One of the most alarming incidents occurred when a researcher was transferring a bat from its cage to a biosafety cabinet. Despite double gloves and a leather glove, the bat reportedly caught the glove with its mouth, leaving a visible red spot on the researcher’s finger consistent with a bite.

The bat involved had reportedly been vaccinated against MERS-CoV and later challenged with a human isolate of the virus, according to the incident report.

Another report describes a researcher performing a tail vein injection on a mouse infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (HN878 strain). The animal moved, the vein was missed, pressure built up in the syringe, and the contents sprayed out of the biosafety cabinet and onto the researcher’s face.”

Great, CSU is just up the road from me. For future reference, I did not eat bat soup.

Yes. We learned that crimes against humanity go unpunished.

Place all federal and state offices in Colorado at the site.

That’s what the “fact checkers” tell me.

Seems you’d want to build a place like this on an island.

Just like we shouldn’t be sharing this technology with our adversaries, as we did in Wuhan, we shouldn’t be sharing it with democrats either.

I’m up in Longmont. They have a lab in Ft. Collins too.

Bingo.

WE learned THEY can shut down economies all over the world, injection rape millions, kill millions, alter the DNA of millions, cause debilitating health conditions for millions, steal elections, facilitate the largest transfer of wealth in history, implement digital ID, deny a whole slew of rights, etc. with zero punishment.

I don’t know weather you noticed or not, but some time back when the American voters, in their infinite wisdom , started electing people of the ilk of Bill Clinton, barrack obama, and Joe Biden to the Presidency. The focus of Government changed from protecting the innocent and punishing the guilty to persecuting the innocent and protecting the guilty and criminal element [most whom held political office].
Yes, individuals who commit crimes against humanity are not punished. Because they are either in Political Office or are being protecting from prosecution by those in high political office. Again, if you have not noticed it, the purpose of law enforcement officers versus the old policemen and peace officers is to control and keep in line the serfs and peons.

“It’s places like this where those 600,000 chinese students work.

Your HR may be a little short. They are calling this a new facility but that is only in when it was built. Facilities like this are all over the country. Four years ago a facility in Reedley, CA was discovered and almost no one got the ax for it...not the city, the state, or the feds that supposedly investigated it.

The manager was arrested for and is being charged with distributing adulterated and misbranded medical devices – and for making false statements to the Food and Drug Administration.

A good article on this is here:

https://abc30.com/post/everything-we-know-illegal-reedley-lab-timeline-of-events-prestige-biotech/13623631/

But this article referenced starting in 2015 in Tulare, CA. It also has been identified in Fresno before it burned down. But the article does not mention the lab that came to south Tulare came from Las Vegas, NV. The entire time starting in 2011 even prior to the infestation in the US. It was all managed by Jia Bei Jesse Zhu, of San Francisco, formerly of Clovis CA. and the government of the People’s Republic of China. His father was part of the funding.

I have not been able to find anything else on the case but there are a lot of people in the crosshairs for this. From the city inspectors to the governor’s office. But with the way it is being stuffed under the rug, don’t expect anything about it kicking back from the media. But there are others in the US. And some are run by the US. One is in Maryland.

We DO NEED to learn “how bats carry viruses like Ebola, Nipah, and SARS-CoV-2 without getting sick.”

But we MUST NOT allow bat-borne pathogens to leak from labs!

Perhaps we need to learn how COVD19 leaked from the Wuhan lab before proceeding—if possible!
