Former US investigator: COVID-19 may have come from bioweapons research accident
The New York Post ^ | March 12, 2021 | Jennifer Griffin

Posted on 03/14/2021 5:11:02 PM PDT by absalom01

The State Department’s former lead investigator who oversaw the Task Force into the COVID-19 virus origin tells Fox News that he not only believes the virus escaped from the Wuhan Institute of Virology, but that it may have been the result of research that the Chinese military, or People’s Liberation Army, was doing on a bioweapon. “The Wuhan Institute of Virology is not the National Institute of Health,” David Asher, ... “It was operating a secret, classified program. In my view, and I’m just one person, my view is it was a biological weapons program.”

“And if you believe, as I do, that this might have been a weapons vector gone awry, not deliberately released, but in development and then somehow leaked, this has turned out to be the greatest weapon in history,” You’ve killed millions of people. The Chinese population has been barely affected. Their economies roared back to being number one in the entire G20.”

“Motive, cover-up, conspiracy, all the hallmarks of guilt are associated with this. And the fact that the initial cluster of victims surrounded the very institute that was doing the highly dangerous, if not dubious research is significant,”

Asher ... said that in 2007, China announced it would begin work on genetic bioweapons using controversial “gain of function” research to make the viruses more lethal.

The Chinese stopped talking publicly about their research at the Wuhan lab in 2016. That, Asher believes, is when the People’s Liberation Army stepped in and went from biodefense research to bio-offense. “We have entered into an area of Chinese biowarfare, and including using things like viruses. I mean, they made a public statement to their people that this is a new priority under the Xi national security policy,” Asher points out.

Not dispositive, but this has long seemed to me to be the most likely theory that most fully explains everything we know to date about the WuFlu.

It's also likely that the ChiComs have compromat on president asterisk.

Interesting times.

This is a long time probable and probably 100% correct

Did Fauci really send money to the Wuhan lab for “gain of function” research?

Seeing people saying that but the internet is a screwy place.

We are getting close to them admitting it was a bio weapon

The New York Post has broken more stories and been right far more often than the “esteemed” uptown Grey Lady for quite a few years now! And wasn’t Fauxchi one of the main proponents of the lab in question? To the tune of billions in grants to them, courtesy of the US taxpayer.

Wonder if the Twat and the Book of Face will censor this story as vehemently as they did the Hunter Biden one last fall? Bet it won’t show up anywhere near the top of the Giggle search engine either...

Then there’s the whole Fauci hiring the Chinese to do GoF research angle. What a convoluted mess.

Agreed.

Calling it an “accident” is an attempt to diminish the bio weapon, as in why would China be developing bioweapons?

Accident = Premature Deployment

It wasn’t quite ready for deployment and was not nearly as effective as it was meant to be.

Test run

The next model is the Gates population reduced.

Before the Trump put it out of the White House, the pandemic study program was cooperating in research with a number of countries including China

No mention of St. Fauxi the Divine funding the (banned in America) research with US tax dollars?
