A Chinese virologist who claims the coronavirus was cooked up in a military lab has accused Beijing of fabricating the virus genome data to cover up its 'unrestricted bioweapon'.
Although scientists are still unravelling the origin of the pandemic, it is widely suggested that the virus had jumped onto humans from wild animals, such as bats or pangolins.
On January 11, China publicly released the genetic sequence of COVID-19 and shared it with the World Health Organization (WHO).
Li-Meng Yan, an alleged former researcher at the Hong Kong School of Public Health, said Thursday in a new report that the coronavirus was a 'laboratory product' created by the Communist government with a template virus.
Yan also claimed the 'weaponised pathogen' was intentionally unleashed by the Chinese authorities rather than accidentally.
A bat coronavirus, known as RaTG13, is commonly believed by researchers as the proximal source of SARS-COV-2
It came after the Chinese 'batwoman', Dr. Zheng-Li Shi of the Wuhan Institute of Virology, published an article on Nature in February.
Dr Shi suggested that the coronavirus had originated in bats carrying RaTG13, which was shown to be over 96 per cent identical to the COVID-19 virus.
A genomic sequence of the bat coronavirus has also been published on GenBank, a database owned by he International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration.
But Yan disputed the generally-accepted theory, adding that the genome data of RaTG13 could have been faked.
She wrote in her new report: 'However, no live virus or an intact genome of RaTG13 have ever been isolated or recovered. Therefore, the only proof for the 'existence' of RaTG13 in nature is its genomic sequence published on GenBank.'
The virologist also said in the paper that the virus 'was created by using a template virus (ZC45/ZXC21) owned by military research laboratories

Yan also stated that the coronavirus was an ‘unrestricted bioweapon’ intentionally unleashed by the Communist Party.
She wrote: ‘In addition, records indicate that the unleashing of this weaponised pathogen should have been intentional rather than accidental.
‘We therefore define SARS-CoV-2 as an Unrestricted Bioweapon and the current pandemic a result of Unrestricted Biowarfare.’
The report is the second paper Yan has published on Zenodo, which is operated by the European Organisation for Nuclear Research.
The new paper has been marked as a ‘working paper’ on the site, meaning that it has not been submitted to a peer-reviewed conference or academic journal.
SARS-CoV-2 — the scientific name of the pathogen — is the seventh coronavirus known to infect humans and jumped to people after an earlier version of it mutated. The previous virus is thought to be one that infected bats and then reached humans via another animal.
Ms Yan’s report has not been published in a scientific journal and has not been peer-reviewed, meaning it has not been checked and approved by scientists.
But it has gained widespread public attention, being viewed more than 150,000 times since it was posted yesterday on the website Zenodo, which is operated by the European Organisation for Nuclear Research.
Not sure where I heard it but a typical virus is expected to mutate and this does not confirming that it is a bio weapon

TITLE: SARS-CoV-2 Is an Unrestricted Bioweapon: A Truth Revealed through Uncovering a Large-Scale, Organized Scientific Fraud
AUTHORS : Yan, Li-Meng; Kang, Shu; Guan, Jie; Hu, Shanchang
SUMMARY:
Two possibilities should be considered for the origin of SARS-CoV-2: natural evolution or laboratory creation. In our earlier report titled “Unusual Features of the SARS-CoV-2 Genome Suggesting Sophisticated Laboratory Modification Rather Than Natural Evolution and Delineation of Its Probable Synthetic Route”, we disproved the possibility of SARS-CoV-2 arising naturally through evolution and instead proved that SARS-CoV-2 must have been a product of laboratory modification.
Despite this and similar efforts, the laboratory creation theory continues to be downplayed or even diminished. This is fundamentally because the natural origin theory remains supported by several novel coronaviruses published after the start of the outbreak. These viruses (the RaTG13 bat coronavirus, a series of pangolin coronaviruses, and the RmYN02 bat coronavirus) reportedly share high sequence homology with SARS-CoV-2 and have altogether constructed a seemingly plausible pathway for the natural evolution of SARS-CoV-2.
Here, however, we use in-depth analyses of the available data and literature to prove that these novel animal coronaviruses do not exist in nature and their sequences have been fabricated. In addition, we also offer our insights on the hypothesis that SARS-CoV-2 may have originated naturally from a coronavirus that infected the Mojiang miners.
Revelation of these virus fabrications renders the natural origin theory unfounded. It also strengthens our earlier assertion that SARS-CoV-2 is a product of laboratory modification, which can be created in approximately six months using a template virus owned by a laboratory of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA). The fact that data fabrications were used to cover up the true origin of SARS-CoV-2 further implicates that the laboratory modification here is beyond simple gain-of-function research.
The scale and the coordinated nature of this scientific fraud signifies the degree of corruption in the fields of academic research and public health. As a result of such corruption, damages have been made both to the reputation of the scientific community and to the well-being of the global community.
Importantly, while SARS-CoV-2 meets the criteria of a bioweapon specified by the PLA, its impact is well beyond what is conceived for a typical bioweapon. In addition, records indicate that the unleashing of this weaponized pathogen should have been intentional rather than accidental. We therefore define SARS-CoV-2 as an Unrestricted Bioweapon and the current pandemic a result of Unrestricted Biowarfare.
We further suggest that investigations should be carried out on the suspected government and individuals and the responsible ones be held accountable for this brutal attack on the global community.

This claim should be able to be proved, one way or another. If her claims are valid, it will open a window of financial liability for the Chinese government, the likes of which will make the tobacco settlement class action suit, look like pocket change. Meanwhile, as with all potential litigation, their assets which can be reached, should be levied. Given the evidence we currently have, it should be child’s play to get a judge to levy their assets.
Maybe covid19 is in human trials for only its contagion value — and it’ll be covid20 or 21 that will deliver the big knockout.
What baffles me is how few people are saying, “Blame China.” What are they waiting for?
Look, COVID was a military attack by China. Period. Bastards.
Financial liability? We need to obliterate them.
Her claims that:
1) It is man made
2) It was developed in a military lab
Have corroboration from other researchers.

Former MI6 head claims COVID-19 was made in a Chinese lab
Sir Richard Dearlove said there was good evidence that the virus was engineered, but that it’s escape from the laboratory was accidental.
Unlock the launch code!!!
Fauci is an involved party. He has protected the WHO and China wherever he could and actually oversaw sending money to the Wuhan lab to develop enhanced capabilities in the virus.
Gee...why isn’t the MSM all over this?
What?! Chinese Communists are liars?! No. /S
“ What baffles me is how few people are saying, “Blame China.” What are they waiting for?”
Many extremely wealthy American captains of tech, industry and politics are in the employ - one way or the other - of China. It’s all about making the elite wealthy.
My hope, though it is a relatively faint hope - is that post-election the Trump Administration will permanently ban all travel to and from China, and no Chinese nationals will be allowed to enter the United States from any other country.
Even that may not be enough, but the closer we can get to total isolation from the perfidy that’s is the Chinese nation, the better.

RNA viruses mutate rapidly and this does. The rapid mutation is used for analysing the origin of outbreaks.
