A lead virologist and her team at a Wuhan lab warned of the possibility of SARS-like coronavirus outbreaks in China 11 months before the novel coronavirus epidemic ravaged the city.
The ominous prediction came from a study carried out by Shi Zhengli and her colleagues at the Wuhan Institute of Virology when they stressed the importance of conducting investigations of viruses from bats.
Shi, nicknamed the 'Bat Woman', allegedly sequenced the genes of the new coronavirus in three days after the epidemic emerged, but was silenced by her boss.

I am not familiar with Chinese names
Can anyone tell me if the Dr on this chapel hill study is the same one as this article? listed as Shi ZL
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26552008
Well, I’m sure W.H.O. investigated.
She is lucky she is not dead after wondering aloud in an interview if the virus came from their lab.
I would say it there is a good chance that the Chapel Hill study Shi is the same as the missing Dr Shi Zhengli
( I think she is missing..or maybe that is another one)

I believe you are correct, it is the same person.
The bats that were 600 miles from Wuhan?

Dr Ralph Baric, PhD, is the William R. Kenan, Jr. Distinguished Professor in the Department of Epidemiology and Professor in the Department of Microbiology and Immunology. He is a Harvey Weaver Scholar from the National Multiple Sclerosis Society and an Established Investigator Awardee from the American Heart Association. In addition, he is a World Technology Award Finalist and a fellow of the American Association for Microbiology. He has spent the past three decades as a world leader in the study of coronaviruses and is single-handedly responsible for UNC-Chapel Hills world leadership in coronavirus research.
He worked directly with the Wuhan Lab. I noticed they edited his bio recently.
I wondered whether this was the same doctor myself.
This warning is nothing but a coverup. It’s a preplanned excuse for a deliberate release of the virus.
Lecture by Dr Baric in 2018
Imagining the Next Flu Pandemic and Preventing it!

I wonder why she went by different names
Seems odd
Made it harder to put two and two together
I live in Chapel Hill and attend many of their lectures. The one above was at the Friday Center and I did not attend.
Very convenient biography edit, eh?
Now, what did the editor remove, what the editor add?
Stranglely, UNC Chapel Hill has never been in public until now about their links to this early coronovirus research. Instead, ALL we herlar is WHO-approved sources, and the NIH-DNC-approved sources.

There are Americans our worthless MSM could be talking to, but they are beholden to the almighty China bucks.
Traitors.
“I have been talking about CHapel Hill for months and saying it is a great possibility that this virus came from a lab”
I do not think the virus came from the Chapel hill lab. The know how to create the virus came from that lab.
Did you every find out if she was at that lab. Maybe the how to paper was publishes.
Chapel Hill is just the beginning.
And yes, it is the same person that is known as the Bat Lady in Wuhan
And she is missing.
She took what was done at Chapel Hill and moved it along to the bioweapons lab in Wuhan
Btw, a military general bioweapons expert took over the lab. Chen Wei. Dont know if he is still there
I thought Chen Wei was female also.
