The first paragraph not included above:
"Dr. McCullough and I often marvel at how the mainstream media somehow fails to see and report facts of enormous importance—facts that are documented in academic papers, grant proposals, e-mail correspondence, and video footage.
All a journalist has to do is read the documents and report their content. And yet, somehow, most legacy media journalists are apparently unable to gain awareness of and report what is immediately at hand."
Quotes from the above article;
” we generated and characterized a chimeric virus expressing the spike of bat coronavirus”..... “ replicate efficiently in primary human airway cells and achieve in vitro titers equivalent to epidemic strains of SARS-CoV.”
This research paper was published in 2015.
On October 17, 2014 the following was published:
“U.S. Government Gain-of-Function Deliberative Process and Research Funding Pause on Selected Gain-of-Function Research Involving Influenza, MERS, and SARS Viruses”
http://www.phe.gov/s3/dualuse/Documents/gain-of-function.pdf
“New USG funding will not be released for gain-of-function research projects that may be reasonably anticipated to confer attributes to influenza, MERS, or SARS viruses such that the virus would have enhanced pathogenicity and/or transmissibility in mammals via the respiratory route. The research funding pause would not apply to characterization or testing of naturally occurring influenza, MERS, and SARS viruses, unless the tests are reasonably anticipated to increase transmissibility and/or pathogenicity. “
Just like the horrifying amount of dual-use technology transfers that China was caught in during the 1990s, the facts of which were plainly detailed in declassified reports, reporters are equally lacking in curiosity when it comes to the origins of COVID.
I knew 30 years ago that reporters were idiots. Despite being a working wife and mom, I took the time to understand complex military terminology and acronyms so I could read those reports. Once I did, the threat was obvious.
Research? Digging? Questioning the narrative?
Too much work for most, apparently.
And since they can’t or refuse to understand the information, it’s easier to dismiss it than to admit their ignorance.
In March 2020, I sent that article to Hannity, Carlson, Ingraham and other journalists at Fox. Crickets.
In other words: We created a new virus in order to be able to create a vaccine for it, in case it evolved on it's own.
For smart people, that's a pretty stupid idea.
The Chinese Bat Lady who directed Covid gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Lab trained in Professor Ralph Baric's UNC lab for several years.
Fauci: “I doubt if I’ve ever met him [Ralph Baric].”
/\
The epitome of a weasel statement.
Fauci needs to be called in for weeks of interviews, and then prosecuted.
Maybe the reason Fauci made no effort to meet Ralph Baric was because Fauci knew the story about ‘the bat soup virus’ was a lie from the start. Closest bat caves for commercial sale of bats for bat soup was over 400 miles from Wuhan.
