Can anyone tell me if the Dr on this chapel hill study is the same one as this article? listed as Shi ZL

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.
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.
I live in Chapel Hill and attend many of their lectures. The one above was at the Friday Center and I did not attend.

“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.
Since when is MERS spelled SARS ?
It seems that the Wuhan viro crew that f’ed up and let Covid loose were trained en masse over the years in a North Carolina Public University. Am I correct?

-——Therefore, the investigation of bat coronaviruses becomes an urgent issue for the detection of early warning signs, which in turn minimizes the impact of such future outbreaks in China.’——
——’Bat coronaviruses resembling SARS and the new SARS-CoV-2 have been isolated by many groups of legitimate scientists, including the Wuhan lab and plenty of US investigators.-—
The Daily Mail article is the best dissemination of facts I have seen. President Trump is aware of all these facts and has been. He acted.
This piece includes references to American scientists studying the chinese research. If they did not, they would be derelict in their duty to try to prevent a pandemic in America.
