Did Covid 19 originate in a Laboratory?
The following list isn’t just Lab leaks, but they do form the bulk of it. Taken altogether they provide total justification for Barak Obama to call a moratorium on “Gain of Function” activity in 2014, until such issues could be properly evaluated. We got fed up with waiting for that so we are doing our own evaluation right here right now…you can help too.
There is always a way around “pesky interfering Presidents “when it comes to Might and Money, so between the spooks at DARPA and the likes of Collins and Fauci at the NIH, the military and medical establishment simply offshored GoF to China. Then came Trump and later, Biden, and business is now booming again, as usual.
So where are we now? Take a look at this list of “Whooops”, it seems we have been very close to man-made catastrophe on literally hundreds of occassions…
The list BTW is almost entirely the work of Robert F Kennedy and his researchers in his excellent book “The Wuhan Cover-up and the Terrifying Bioweapons Arms Race”, we have altered the running order and paraphrased each account for the sake of brevity, as well as worked through the links to confirm their existence and accuracy.
1918 An article by author Keith Rushworth, written in 2020 displays evidence that 1918 Spanish flu epidemic was not viral influenza at all but bacterial pneumonia initiated by a US military vaccine. Dr. Anthony Fauci was also author of a 2008 study confirming that death from the Spanish flu was indeed not from flu at all, but bacterial pneumonia working as a secondary, lethal event.” ( 1,2.) See Footnote
1957 at an NIH Lab Bernice Eddy revealed the Salk and Sabin polio vaccines were contaminated with Simian Virus 40 (SV40), a potent carcinogen. NIH health officials allowed millions of American children to receive the contaminated vaccines.” (3,4,5,6,7,)
1964 at Fort Detrick US Mr Albert Nickel died from Bolivian haemorrhagic fever and Bernard Kreh was held in isolation due to an Anthrax substance almost killing him (a weaponized sub-strain of anthrax) (8,9,)
1959 again at Fort Detrick US a researcher, 22 yo Ralph Powell, barely survived an accidental infection with pneumonic plague.( 10,11,)
1951 again at Fort Detrick US a microbiologist William Boyles plus an electrician Joel Willard die from Anthrax poisoning (12,13)
1967 in Germany and Serbia Lab leaks from African green monkey colonies caused outbreaks of Marburg Virus, (Fatality rate +/- 50%) (14)
1975 on US Army Plum Island facility a GM engineered bioweapon (Borrelia burgdorferi) escaped from Lab. It causes Lyme disease which now infects 476,000 US citizens each year (15,16,17,18,19.) That genie has yet to be put back in the bottle. DG-Ed.
1977 H1N1 flu virus (blamed for the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic) arrives in China and became worldwide. Scientists sourced outbreak to an escape of a reconstituted Spanish Flu from a lab “ Either in southern USSR or northern China”. (20,21.)
1979 An accident at a military biodefense lab-Sverdlovsk, Russia, caused outbreak of anthrax killing > 60 people. (22,23).
1987 “The London Times reports a contaminated smallpox vaccine—administered by the WHO to 100 million African children—had caused the spread of HIV in Africa. In a compelling 2001 book, The River: A Journey to the Source of HIV and AIDS, investigative journalist and historian Edward Hooper traces the original jump of HIV from its natural reservoir in Congolese bonobos to the mass vaccination of a million Congolese children and adults in the early 1950s with Hilary Koprowski’s oral polio vaccine, which Koprowski and Stanley Plotkin cultivated on a substrate of bonobo kidneys in Africa.” (24,25.)
2003 Outbreak of SARS/COVID type in September of 2003 from a Singapore lab—(Singapore is a global paradigm for exceptional laboratory management) (26)
2003 Second SARS/COVID type outbreak in Taiwan documented in December (27,28.)
2004 Between March and May, Lab workers in China accidentally released SARS-CoV viruses from China’s top laboratory at the Chinese Institute of Virology in Beijing on two separate occasions, infecting people outside the facility.” “Gilles Demaneuf documented two more incidents of SARS-related lab breaches since 2004 in Beijing (29,30, 31)
2003 – 2007 – Over one hundred accidents and missing shipments were reported during this period involving bird flu, monkeypox, and bubonic plague at 44 labs in 24 states. (32*)
2004-2018 – Between 2004 & 2010, US CDC reports a total of 727 incidents of theft/ loss/leakage of biological media, including 639 leaks, most of which were biosafety level 3 (BSL-3) incidents.” This number had risen to an average of four times per week By 2018. (33)
2007 Foot-and-mouth disease microbes “went missing” from research lab in UK, leading to the slaughter of hundreds of farm animals.” (34)
2007 “An investigation by the Associated Press identified thirty-six accidents and lost shipments in one year” (32*)
2009 University of Chicago researcher died from infection by a lab-cultivated plague bacillus (35)
2012 A postdoc contracted meningitis from his lab at San Francisco’s VA Medical Center. He died. (35)
2013 -2015 “US media outlets have documented 8 incidents when infected lab mice escaped Ralph Baric’s lab, + 6 occasions since 2015 in which lab accidents exposed employees to corona viruses.” (36)
2014 2,349 vials containing SARS samples disappeared from Paris’ Institut Pasteur (37)
2014/2016 12,500 West Africans killed by an Ebola outbreak in Sierra Leone in 2014–2016. Evidence suggests it came from the US government’s CDC lab in Kenema, Sierra Leone. (38, 39)
2014 BARAK OBAMA CALLS FOR A MORATORIUM ON GAIN OF FUNCTION RESEARCH – BETTER LATE THAN NEVER
2015 A USA Today investigation described some of “the most egregious safety or security breaches” at more than a hundred high-security labs in the US. Labs reported 37 ruptures of pressurized moon suits worn by researchers in US BSL-4 labs from 2013 to 2014.” (40,41)
2015 – 2020 In August 2022, ProPublica acquired NIH documents from UNC using FOI laws showing Ralph Baric’s lab reported to NIH officials 28 additional accidents involving genetically engineered organisms between 2015 and 2020,.Six incidents involved various types of lab-created coronaviruses, some from escaped mice involving bites. April 2020, UNC scientist submits to 14 days quarantine after a mouse bite exposed him to a strain of SARS-CoV” (42,43)
2021 In a May interview on CBS’s Face the Nation, former US Food and Drug Administration Director Scott Gottlieb acknowledged “lab leaks happen all the time, In China, the last six known outbreaks of SARS-1 have been out of labs, the last one was extensive, and China initially wouldn’t disclose it was a lab product.” (44)
