Analysis of cellphone location data in high-security area of Wuhan virology lab that studied coronavirus in bats indicates it shutdown in October after a 'hazardous event'

The private analysis reviewed publicly-available cellphone location data It said there was no cellphone activity in a high-security area of China's Wuhan Institute of Virology for most of October 2019

The report suggested that there was a 'hazardous event' there early in the month US intelligence analysts have not been able to confirm if there was a shutdown The report does not offer any direct evidence for either of its suggestions Some believe the report could provide proof that the coronavirus was accidentally released by the lab WHO officials continue to believe that natural animal-to-human transmission and the Wuhan wet market was the likely origin of the virus Here’s how to help people impacted by Covid-19

Documents analyzing cellphone location data are said to show that a high-security laboratory studying coronavirus in Wuhan was shut down in October, according to a new report.

NBC News reported that US spy agencies are reviewing the document - a private analysis obtained by the news company's London-based verification unit - which claims that there was no cellphone activity in a high-security area of China's Wuhan Institute of Virology between October 7 and October 24, 2019.

The report, which was based on commercially-available cellphone location data - indicates that there might've been a 'hazardous event' in that area between October 6 and October 11.

Shouldn't high-risk (BSL-4) areas generally be cellphone-free? I recall reading that virus particles can adhere to smartphone screens and persist there for quite some time.

In any event, there should be procedures in place keeping cellphones away from where pathogens are, or else those cellphones should remain at all times in their respective containment areas.

When did the US CDC person come back to the US? Wasn’t there an American who was abruptly reassigned? I have a vague recollection of reading about something like that. What I took from the story at the time was that it was “Trump’s fault” because our person on the ground was forced to leave the lab due to budget cuts.

Interesting, but conjecture.

Generally, people are not allowed to use or have cellphones in high security areas.

Do you really expect the Chinese to adhere to proper safety protocols?

Had a coworker inform me yesterday that a construction buddy of his in Asia had to send everyone home back in September due to massive flu-type illnesses.

Hmmmm.....

China KNEW!

This, boys and girls is why they totally freaked out when it was detected on the doorstep of their lab. They KNEW.

In a vain effort to block the spread, they devastated their own economy, they locked down a city of 11 million, they welded the doors shut on 1000 unit apartment buildings, they blocked travel from Wuhan to anywhere else in China.

Most damning of all, the allowed travel from Wuhan to the rest of the world!

Can anyone give me a reason why this "We ain't going down alone, we're taking the rest of you down with us" move was not an act of WMD warfare on the entire planet?

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

The false positive rate was 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

If a quarantine saves just one child's or one old fart’s life, it's worth it.

That indicates that they did have data there before and after October to know that it had stopped.

What? What? What? This means the idiots running 'intelligence' in the US are so stupid they didn't check this ON THEIR OWN - MONTHS AGO? What the hell are we paying 'intelligence' for? Finding out what mistresses Russians have changed in the last two months?

Clean house...

Small price to pay for an obvious bio-attack they can pretend was a 'mistake'... by the small act of murdering a few thousand of their own citizens.

Do a study on Chinese "show murders" - - see if a high percentage were people they wanted to 'off' anyhow...

“What the hell are we paying ‘intelligence’ for?”

To participate in a coup against our President?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Russians told them about the Boston bombers and they ignored it.

Too busy trying to rig elections for the democrats and failing that, trying to frame President Trump.

Yes. It wouldn't be the first lapse in safety procedure for that lab, though.
