US FUNDED WUHAN LAB’S VIRUS RESEARCH
Powerline ^ | May 3,2020 | John H. Hinderaker

This is a huge story that has not been widely followed up on. Has any reporter asked Dr. Fauci about it? If not, why not? Just kidding, we all know the answer. Many links in the original:

Back in October 2014, the US government had placed a federal moratorium on gain-of-function (GOF) research – altering natural pathogens to make them more deadly and infectious – as a result of rising fears about a possible pandemic caused by an accidental or deliberate release of these genetically engineered monster germs.

This was in part due to lab accidents at the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in July 2014 that raised questions about biosafety at US high-containment labs.

CDC is a typical federal agency. Why do so many people assume that it is competent?

As such in October 2014, because of public health concerns, the US government banned all federal funding on efforts to weaponize three viruses – influenza, Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) and severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS).

Seems like a good idea! I’m not sure why we were weaponizing viruses in the first place.

In the face of a moratorium in the US, Dr Anthony Fauci – the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and currently the leading doctor in the US Coronavirus Task Force – outsourced in 2015 the GOF research to China’s Wuhan lab and licensed the lab to continue receiving US government funding.

Emphasis added. Apparently Fauci’s thinking was that his own agency couldn’t safely carry out this research, but a Chinese laboratory could.

Now remember Lieber being paid simultaneously by DOD and Wuhan. And remember the Chinese from Canada’s lab who over several years flew back and forth to Wuhan.

Bullshivitz!

Fauci’s thinking was that his own agency couldn’t LEGALLY carry out this research, but a Chinese laboratory could BECAUSE THEY ARE OUTSIDE OF THE JURISDICTION OF US LAW.

Ping to Fauci illegal activity research he funded in China. Gates has been promoting China and WHO.

The two of them are likely sharing a very long train of e-mails. Love to read them!

If this is a serious allegation, there should be answers.

Pompeo says ‘enormous evidence’ virus came from Wuhan lab

http://www.msn.com/en-au/news/coronavirus/pompeo-says-enormous-evidence-virus-came-from-wuhan-lab/ar-BB13xYQ9?ocid=ientp

News reports say Trump has tasked US spies to find out more about the origins of the virus, at first blamed on a Wuhan market selling exotic animals like bats, but now thought possibly to be from a virus research laboratory nearby.
