Extraordinary revelations about Western scientists colluding to hide COVID’s origins: What’s so shocking is that these weren’t Chinese scientists with guns to their heads
American Thinker ^ | 06/04/2021 | Andrea Widburg

The dam has broken regarding COVID. Suddenly, theories that this deadly virus originated in a Wuhan lab and that Fauci was deliberately misleading people about it have gone from being castigated as racist conspiracy theories to accepted doctrine. On Thursday, Vanity Fair, a leftist, hysterically anti-Trump magazine published an extraordinary article revealing that the American and British scientific communities deliberately hid China’s role in the virus’s creation.

Vanity Fair’s article is entitled “The Lab-Leak Theory: Inside the Fight to Uncover COVID-19’s Origins: Throughout 2020, the notion that the novel coronavirus leaked from a lab was off-limits. Those who dared to push for transparency say toxic politics and hidden agendas kept us in the dark.” Of course, it doesn’t give credit where credit is due to people like Tom Cotton or many other conservatives and that’s okay because it does something more important: It reveals how deeply corrupt, compromised, and politicized America’s scientific community is.

You must read the article with some care. The facts vindicate Trump and the “conspiracy-minded conservatives” who nailed the virus’s origin. However, because Vanity Fair is a left-wing swamp, this is how it explains its analysis:

With President Trump out of office, it should be possible to reject his xenophobic agenda and still ask why, in all places in the world, did the outbreak begin in the city with a laboratory housing one of the world’s most extensive collection of bat viruses, doing some of the most aggressive research?

In other words, now that we no longer have to destroy Trump (whose alleged “xenophobia” about China was correct), let’s start telling the truth.

Vanity Fair explains that the cover-up was set in early with a February 19, 2020 statement in The Lancet, a once-reputable British medical journal.

There are other shocking revelations in the article, such as the fact that, when former CDC director Robert Redfield posited in a CNN interview that he believed COVID originated in a lab, he “received death threats from fellow scientists.

Here’s what Redfield said:

“I was threatened and ostracized because I proposed another hypothesis,” Redfield told Vanity Fair. “I expected it from politicians. I didn’t expect it from science.”

What you have, over the past three or four decades...a number of people who graduated from college with a degree in science, and currently pretend to be scientists, but aren’t qualified for the work they do. So they engage in a 50-percent amateur science-job and 50-percent political-job.

Looks like a lot of scientists, along with politicians and businessmen are also feeding at the CCP trough of corruption, payoffs, etc. Nice to know that all these “Americans” are watching out for the best interests of all the other Americans. Pathetic whores. What’s that line about “selling us the rope that we will use to hang them?” Greed knows no border, political or religious affiliation, its as old as mankind itself. Too bad the innocent get the brunt of the blowback, in one form or another.

"Extraordinary revelations about Western scientists colluding to hide COVID’s origins: What’s so shocking is that these weren’t Chinese scientists with guns to their heads"

These (especially U.S.) scientists simply gave aid and comfort to the enemy.

Who cares about finding out this now that we already knew for a year and a half ?

all we really care about now is the stolen election ; ending the Democrats ability to cheat ; and getting President Trump rightfully returned to office

We are waiting patiently for the results of the Arizona audit , after which when we find out that Trump won by 600,000 to 1,000,000 votes, all hell in America is going to break loose

Let’s amend that a bit — Folks who have been PAYING ATTENTION knew for a year and a half. The rest who get their news from social and mainstream media don’t.

Politics and the media have corrupted everything beyond redemption. We are buried under tons of information but still biblically thirst for the truth. It’s out there somewhere.

Our government has created a system where rational human beings will make an irrational decision that costs millions, billions, or trillions (Covid) all to protect or gain a few hundred thousand dollars.

Think about it for a second.....

Politician gets a 10k donation and writes in 7 or 8 zeros in a bill in congress for donor.

Researcher denies X costing society billions so that they can continue to get a 600k grant promoting Y.

Big Pharma and their fanboys deny treatments that are cheap and widely available so that a vaccine is the only answer and just like that, overnight, we have 9 new billionaires?

The politically appointed executives of Freddie and Fanny back in the housing crash cooked the books so they could get 100 million in bonuses. Taxpayers ended up paying trillions for that too.

Up is down and down is up. The quickest way to get rich in America is through legislation. You can “invest” a little and get much in return.

Let’s go back to about December, 2019, before the Chinese government threw a blanket over the Chinese researchers in Wuhan.

Many research docs had been available about the SARS virus that had been studied for years. COVID-19 was in that group and was not well understood, so several papers were available discussing its unique mutations. Gain of function was well noted.

I and several other posters at FR presented these findings. Other medical researchers saw that the gain of function kind of mutations were just not possible in such a short time naturally.

The other oddity is that the COVID-19 mutation was unable to sicken the very healthy bats and pangolins that it supposedly came from.

Rather than a lab leak it was suspected that some of the lab animals were sold at the nearby wet market. Contamination of Wuhan lab workers was also suspected.

As discussed by Mitchell Langbert in his "Homogenous: The Political Affiliations of Elite Liberal Arts College Faculty" (Academic Questions, 31:2, June, 2018), the ratio of Demonicrat to Republican biology faculty is over 20.

Follow the money

I think we will discover that scientists followed the “party line” because they were told that their ability to get grant funding would otherwise be threatened.

Let’s go back to about October 18, 2019, when Event 201 as held in NYC, sponsored by The Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, World Economic Forum, and Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

Event 201 was a 3.5-hour pandemic tabletop exercise that simulated a series of dramatic, scenario-based facilitated discussions, confronting difficult, true-to-life dilemmas associated with response to a hypothetical, but scientifically plausible, pandemic. 15 global business, government, and public health leaders were players in the simulation exercise that highlighted unresolved real-world policy and economic issues that could be solved with sufficient political will, financial investment, and attention now and in the future.

Concur. Very unlikely (near-zero, if not actually zero), probability that the Wuhan virus was deliberately leaked.

Near-certainty it was deliberately researched and enhanced - WITH Dr Fauci’s money, grants, influence and support with US dollars and grants! The principle researcher can be traced directly from Fauci department and research to her Canadian lab to the Chinese Wuhan lab.

Most likely it was leaked by a Wuhan employee or worker into the bloody open-door meat market from lab animals sold for profit or extra pocket money, or by simple careless behavior, or by accidental personal exposure to a family member.

They were "scientists" on the Left. And being "scientists" on the Left, they despised Donald Trump. Their goal was not reasoned science and a concern for humanity, but a third-grade level tantrum designed to "get Orange Man."

Such pure insanity.

Fauci was as good as his word. He said in 2012 it was worth the risk of a pandemic to fund gain of function research. Once he made that decision, a decision to spread the coverup lie was simple.
