Highly suspect': DARPA tried to hire executive at Wuhan lab funder as COVID emerged, he says

Sixteen months after the Biden administration conceded COVID-19 might have emerged "from a laboratory accident," largely ending social media censorship of the onetime "conspiracy theory," fresh scrutiny is falling on a nonprofit conduit for federal research grants to the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) and a purported fact-checker.

A former vice president of the EcoHealth Alliance claims it "developed" SARS-CoV-2 and "described in detail" how it would do so in its successful research proposal to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and its component National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID).

When he became VP in late 2015, Huff said he learned the group "depended heavily on government contract salary overhead to remain solvent" and noticed "irregular financial transactions" such as "double dipping on contracts, between government organizations and private donors" including the Gates Foundation.

"Coincidentally," the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) tried to poach Huff through a "highly suspect" recruitment in fall 2019, when "the first cases of COVID-19 likely emerged." He believes "people working within the US government potentially identified me as a risk to knowing firsthand" that COVID-19's emergence "was a consequence" of federal sponsorship of "genetic engineering" and calculated that hiring Huff would legally muzzle him.

Explains "bat soup", and assiduous avoidance of understanding the origins of Covid.

I've seen facile dismissals when this issue bubbles up along the lines of "well, if we don't do it, someone else will". IMHO people using that argument are either daft or a paid disinformation shill (like the current White House press secretary).

The implications here, if the imformatiin trail pans out, are bad. No wonder they're eager to defeat Johnson in Wisconsin.

Its a shame. DARPA gave us the concept that formed the basis for the internet. But that was the DARPA of 50 years ago. And a certain three letter agency is also mentioned in the article, which given the topic, is not surprising.

13 June 2020: ABC Fact Check, Australia: No, Italy is not exaggerating COVID-19 deaths, contrary to what one Italian MP claims
by RMIT & ABC Fact Check
CoronaCheck #22
Misinformation about vaccines, 5G and hydroxychloroquine continues to spread, despite the best efforts of fact checkers...

***Italy is not exaggerating COVID-19 deaths
A claim made by an Italian politician that 96.3 per cent of COVID-19 deaths in his country were actually from other causes is false, according to Full Fact.

One of the first countries after China to have experienced a major outbreak of the novel coronavirus, Italy has recorded more than 32,000 COVID-19 deaths.

The fact checkers discovered that the source of the claim was an April 20 report from the Istituto Superiore di Sanità (Higher Institute of Health), which had found that of 21,551 Italians who had died with COVID-19, just 3.7 per cent had no co-morbidities.

“This means that 96.3% of the people who had died in Italy after testing positive for the new coronavirus had also suffered from at least one condition,” Full Fact noted.
“It does not mean that the virus did not cause their death.”...

wonder what drugs/protocols Italy might have been using to “treat” those who died!

That SARS-CoV-2 came from the Wuhan lab was clear from the beginning. Millions have died as a consequence of crappy Chinese science and a combination of poor judgment, self-preservation, deceit, and hubris by Fauci and Peter Daszak.

Yet here we are almost 3 years after the initial emergence and China has paid no consequence, Fauci is retiring wealthy and with a great pension, and Daszak still has his bs organization and his money. No one from the liberal establishment (politically or in the media) is holding these people accountable for the deaths they are responsible for - but they are going after President Trump for the sins of being conservative and demonstrating how feckless those in political power truly are. We are living during a time when dull uncreative and feckless people with academic letters are propping themselves up while hurting millions in the world with their insistence on a world order that puts them in positions of perceived stature. It's quite vulgar, and horribly destructive.

Yet here we are almost 3 years after the initial emergence and China has paid no consequence,

You (and many others) are still not getting it, if your baffled complaint is that China "has paid no consequence." Yes, the release of SARS-COV-2 from the Wuhan lab may have been the proximate cause of the subsequent so-called "pandemic." Nevertheless, the but-for cause of the very existence of the SARS-COV-2 pathogen itself was the gain-of-function work done by Americans, in the U.S., at the behest of, and with the cooperation of, the U.S. military establishment.

China knows this just as well as the U.S. military establishment. Hence, there will be no "getting to the bottom of it." There were will be "consequences" to be paid by China, because China itself is not the underlying bad actor here and certainly not the sole one. Rather, the U.S. is. The U.S. is ultimately responsible for the COVID pandemic.

I recognize that there are few here who wish to accept this. Nevertheless, it is true.

DARPA looks to be all in with Schwab and Harari.

“Certainly in the next ten years. At first we will implant them in our clothes, and then we could imagine that we will implant them in our brains or in our skin. And in the end, maybe, there will be a direct communication between our brain and the digital world. What we see is a kind of fusion of the physical, digital and biological world.” (Klaus Schwab)

Chemical and biological weapons have always been the poor man’s weapons of mass destruction.

They may be cheap, but they lack precision and accuracy, are unpredictable in their results, difficult to control, and generally inflict casualties equally on the combatants on all sides as well as non-combatants.

Biological weapons based on RNA or DNA are the equivalent of Wile E. Coyote stirring up a Witches’s Brew from Acme. They are far more complex than just a base 4 (adenine [A], cytosine [C], guanine [G], and uracil [U] in RNA; A, C, G. and thymine [T] in DNA) coding system.

These form base pairs (A-U, U-A, C-G, and G-C in RNA and A-T, T-A, C-G, and G-C in DNA. Order matters, C-G is different from G-C, and three of these base pairs form a gene.

In human beings, 98% of these genes are non-coding, the other 2% are patterns for making the protein sequences that make up the human body. However, the protein sequences are dependent upon (among other things), the position and orientation of the gene on the chromosome as well as adjacent genes.

While sophisticated tools exist for gene splicing and editing, they are the equivalent of performing neurosurgery with blacksmith tools. Even when you insert the new genes exactly where you think you want them, how those new genes express themselves in the organism is subject to a great deal of chaos and uncertainty.

Finally. genetic modifications have not demonstrated a high degree of survival in succeeding generations. In the case of the Wuhanic Plague, the time constant for the toxins that Fauci and his Chinese partners bolted on to the respiratory virus delivery vehicle as well as the payload (probably a Nipah or Henipavirus from an African fruit bat) appears to have been 5 to 6 months, resulting in the different variants.

Given a release date of October 2019, that means that five time constants, or 30 months later, by April 2022, the Wuhanic Plague had decayed to the point it was just another upper respiratory virus.

Complicating everything, unlike their earlier efforts with SARS and MERS, where all the additional toxins were on the payload; for the Wuhanic Plague, the Chinese managed to hang additional toxins on the spike of the delivery vehicle including, but not limited to, at least 1 HIV 120 glycoprotein, a prion, and a Proline (P), Arginine (R), Arginine (R), Aniline (A) furin cleavage site that targeted human ace2 receptors.

In general the envelope (E) protein of a corona virus should be the logical choice for a vaccine as that is what an infected hosts immune system would detect first. Due to the small size of the E protein, and perhaps difficulty in isolating it, a case could be made for using the larger membrane (M) protein, or a combination of E and M. Additionally it appears the Chinese were unable to add any toxins to the E or A proteins.

While, based upon the ability of the Chinese to modify the spike (S) protein, the S protein may have been easier to isolate and use; developing the mRNA experimental jabs and boosters from the S protein, instantiated a significant amount of the toxins from the Delta variant in the jabs and boosters, almost certainly prolonging the survival of the Delta variant in the human population.

Nevertheless, the but-for cause of the very existence of the SARS-COV-2 pathogen itself was the gain-of-function work done by Americans, in the U.S., at the behest of, and with the cooperation of, the U.S. military establishment.

The US has done its share of unethical research, and I agree that the gain of function research started in the US, but it didn't start as a military attempt to develop a bioweapon. It started as a misguided pet project of Fauci and Daszak. There had been a moratorium on gain of function research, but Fauci pushed for lifting it. Added to that is the fact that the Chinese government, which is intrinsically linked with the Chinese military, have been sending graduate students and post-docs to the US for many decades, and funding them to work in US labs. Some are there to steal / bring technology back to China. Others are there to work in labs of interest to the military (e.g. virology labs / pathogen labs). Working in such a lab was a great opportunity for Shi Zhengli, and she brought this back to China - along with funding from Fauci's NIH agency. I personally don't think Covid was deliberately released from that lab, but rather that the biosafety measures in that lab were insufficient. Then, once released, the Chinese government acted incredibly irresponsibly and actually criminally in letting it out of the country, and then lying about it. So yes, China IS culpable.
