Bad Actor: The Fate of Peter Daszak
American Thjinker ^ | 24 Jan, 2025 | Wendi Strauch Mahoney

One of the biggest official COVID actors gets at least some comeuppance.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has officially suspended and debarred Dr. Peter Daszak for five years from participating in federal procurement programs due to his role as former president and CEO of EcoHealth Alliance, Inc. (EHA). This decision, announced on January 17, 2025, follows a Suspension and Proposed Debarment Notice issued nearly a year earlier, on May 15, 2024. In addition to Daszak’s suspension, EcoHealth Alliance itself has also been debarred from federal procurement programs.

The suspension of Daszak’s funding is based on evidence uncovered by the Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic. According to a Jan. 17 press release from House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform chairman James Comer (R-Ky.), EcoHealth “terminated Dr. Daszak’s employment effective January 6, 2025.” Comer stated that Daszak and EcoHealth used “taxpayer funds to facilitate dangerous gain-of-function research in China.”

A final report released in May 2024 by Chairman Brad Wenstrup of the Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic (SSCP) outlined significant violations by EcoHealth Alliance. The report revealed that “EcoHealth repeatedly breached the terms of its NIH grant, routinely ignored government oversight requests, and failed to report dangerous gain-of-function experiments conducted at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV).”

According to the report, EcoHealth also submitted a required research report two years late. HHS cited these findings as key reasons for the formal debarment of both EcoHealth and Dr. Daszak. The report emphasized that, given the strong likelihood that a lab-related incident involving gain-of-function research contributed to the emergence of COVID-19, EcoHealth and its former president should never again receive U.S. taxpayer funds. Chairman Wenstrup explained that EcoHealth Alliance

5 years? Should be a lifetime ban for him and anyone who employs him.

It took a year (and a change of administration) to get this guy disbarred and his company suspended?

No wonder we are in trouble.

This assumes that the release of COVID was an accident. I think the “incident” was more like the CCP ordering it released to influence the 2020 election.

HHS hanging him out to dry, pretending like they weren’t involved and didn’t know.

Pursuing any serious charges would break down their wall of deniability.

It’s a start. Now, let’s put Fauci under oath and have him spill the beans. Fauci cannot plead the 5th because of his pardon. Sooooo....either Fauci throws this scumbag under the bus, or he lies (perjury-new crime not covered by pardon-prosecute Fauci) or he refuses to testify (contempt-a new crime not covered by the pardon).

Let’s start exposing the truth to the people. We deserve it!

Here is an interesting read on biological weapons and their development. Every single disease capable of incapacitation is weaponized and studied, no matter what anyone says, or denies. Of course, intentional release of any such weapon is a crime, (or an act of war) https://www.airuniversity.af.edu/Wild-Blue-Yonder/Articles/Article-Display/Article/2596954/biological-weapons-accountability/

Exactly. Gain of Function is another word for weapon of mass destruction with the diseases they could unleash.
