One Flu Out Of The Wuhan Nest

Grab a coffee.

If the case that SARS2 originated in a lab is so substantial, why isn’t this more widely known? As may now be obvious, there are many people who have reason not to talk about it. The list is led, of course, by the Chinese authorities. But virologists in the United States and Europe have no great interest in igniting a public debate about the gain-of-function experiments that their community has been pursuing for years.

Nor have other scientists stepped forward to raise the issue. Government research funds are distributed on the advice of committees of scientific experts drawn from universities. Anyone who rocks the boat by raising awkward political issues runs the risk that their grant will not be renewed and their research career will be ended. Maybe good behavior is rewarded with the many perks that slosh around the distribution system. And if you thought that Dr. Andersen and Dr. Daszak might have blotted their reputation for scientific objectivity after their partisan attacks on the lab escape scenario, look at the 2nd and 3rd names on this list of recipients of an $82 million grant announced by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases in August 2020.

The US government shares a strange common interest with the Chinese authorities: neither is keen on drawing attention to the fact that Dr. Shi’s coronavirus work was funded by the US National Institutes of Health. One can imagine the behind-the-scenes conversation in which the Chinese government says “If this research was so dangerous, why did you fund it, and on our territory too?” To which the US side might reply, “Looks like it was you who let it escape. But do we really need to have this discussion in public?”
Dr. Fauci is a longtime public servant who served with integrity under President Trump and has resumed leadership in the Biden Administration in handling the Covid epidemic. Congress, no doubt understandably, may have little appetite for hauling him over the coals for the apparent lapse of judgment in funding gain-of-function research in Wuhan.

To these serried walls of silence must be added that of the mainstream media. To my knowledge, no major newspaper or television network has yet provided readers with an in-depth news story of the lab escape scenario, such as the one you have just read, although some have run brief editorials or opinion pieces. One might think that any plausible origin of a virus that has killed three million people would merit a serious investigation. Or that the wisdom of continuing gain-of-function research, regardless of the virus’s origin, would be worth some probing. Or that the funding of gain-of-function research by the NIH and NIAID during a moratorium on such research would bear investigation. What accounts for the media’s apparent lack of curiosity?

  1. In other words:

    Globalist-controlled US governments were funding Chinese research into bio-terror agents to be used against the peoples of the western world, should a major western power ever fall into the hands of those who took the sovereignty of their people seriously. Wuhan flu was their hedge against the possibility of the rise of a Donald Trump.

    Call our elites monsters. Don’t call them stupid. They didn’t gain power over us by being stupid, unable to plan ahead, unable to foresee threats to their dominion or unwilling to act pre-emptively against them.

    1. I’d probably think the use case was a different one: create a terrible virus from which there is no natural immunity, and then after sufficient panic has been created, leap to the rescue with the vaccine or cure, and make a spectacular fortune. Perhaps Covid, or an eventual descendent of Covid, wasn’t planned to be released for many years yet, but Trump’s looming reelection proved too much for the Chinese and/or globalists to bear and so they pulled the trigger early. Or maybe the Chinese were just colossally stupid and really did just leak the thing out of incompetence. Hardly matters which is the case now, I suppose.

      Our globalist masters are not troubled by a concept that we plebes call “morality.” If it will make them gobs of money, they’ll do it, no questions asked. This is why China is always at the heart of these kind of ventures. The Chinese government has no use for morality either. If China wants to do something, they do it and they DGAF what anyone else in the world thinks.

      Where’s General MacArthur when you need him. The only good commie is a dead commie.

  2. No one asks. In my circle of family and work covid is accepted. No one seems interested in finding how we got in this mess. Maybe in their heads they are scared of the answer. It’s like climate change and carbon tax. Terms used so much it’s natural

    My opinion is it’s a China lab If the truth came out though….. World war 3. So that’s not good. If it developed as bat soup then that shines a poor light on marvellous progressive China…. as a third world s*#thole. There is no truth that could possibly make China look good here. And remember. China plays the long game and are not our friends. This is far from over.

    Just hard to watch my kids suffer.

    1. “Dr. Fauci is a longtime public servant who served with integrity under President Trump and has resumed leadership in the Biden Administration in handling the Covid epidemic.” Poppycock! I would strongly encourage the author to read the book, The Faucian Bargain, so he can better understand Fauci’s integrity (or complete lack thereof).

      1. Fauci and “integrity” …linked???

        Lmao…yea, NO.!
        This POS is the reason HydroxyChloroquine was Falsely trashed. A guy who who to me is 100% owned by Big Harma and one who lies through his teeth seemingly on a daily basis.

        Just another Deep State DirtBag. The only person Fauci worked for is GATES….he has no integrity.

      2. Yeah, when I read that line, I had to wonder what alternate reality the author had temporarily slipped into.

        The rest of the article, even though longish, is quite a good read. If you combine it with other reports now coming out about the CCP-Flu virus, it paints a damning picture of China’s role in this pandemic.

        I have come to think that the release of the virus may even have been deliberate. A virus that is highly infectious, but mimics a bad cold or mild flu would be the perfect way to do a test-run of a future bio-weapon… Those who released it would be able to quietly track its spread around the world, while the rest of the world believed it was just a regular seasonal virus that they face every year. The problem was that for a subset of the population with certain co-morbidities, it was very, very serious and deadly, and so the CCP had to suddenly go into denial and coverup mode. Of course, that is just speculation on my part.

    2. Jeff, you like many in here, make the mistake that China is a 3rd world shithole, it’s not,in many ways it is the equal to any western nation. And until that is addressed they will have a tactical advantage over the west.

      DPM, exactly!!

  3. This would explain a great deal about the response of our so-called leaders and “health authorities”. About why they chucked all of their well established pandemic response plans and started panicking and (over) reacting. They believed that they were dealing, not with a regular run-of-the-mill flu or coronavirus, but rather with an escaped (perhaps prematurely?) bioweapon.

  4. “After all, the more months pass without the natural emergence theory gaining a shred of supporting evidence, the less plausible it may seem. ”

    Indeed.

    1. Phil; A couple of things should be apparent by now. ALL Governments have bought into this scam. They have lied continually, used miss information and silenced or discredited anyone who has raised concerns or brought forth a bit of information that holds some truth or is credible in some way. The amount of lying is staggering. They are so deep and committed to the lie they will never be able to get out from under it. There is an old adage in broadcasting ” Don’t shoot the messenger, shoot the message”. They “Governments” have not been able to do that because they cannot show a good rebuttal because they don’t have the information or have the truth and do not want you to know what it is.
      Too many people have been conditioned to accept what ever drivel we are being subjected to by government because they are either too lazy or ill prepared to do their own research and are not capable of any type of critical thinking, And lastly ALL governments use FEAR to control the masses. Think about it…We have Globull warming which has been around since the early 70’s. Not one prediction of doom and gloom has come to pass. They even changed the name several times because it didn’t sound “scary” enough. We now have Covid-19 which so far has been used very successfully to control the masses, as you know we are now being told that globull warming is the next big fight we have to prepare for by bankrupting our Country so we can save the Planet. As the old saying goes Wash, Rinse, Repeat……..Rant Off……Steve O

  5. When you read Sun Tzu’s The Art of War he outlines 4 stages to overthrow a foreign power or government without any bloodshed. It’s called subversion. The first stage is to get hard-core Marxists teaching students in colleges and universities to indoctrinate them into the philosophy. This takes 15-20 years. The second stages is to use the brainwashed grad students, now working in high positions in the media/government/education/arts, etc. to change the nation’s culture. They use riots (e.g. BLM, ANTIFA, etc.), violent protests, and colour revolutions (e.g. Mao’s cultural revolution) to change the nation’s culture. This takes 5-6 years. The third stage is to suddenly push the nation into crisis. I believe that Obama et al knew that COVID-19 was coming in 2020 and Hilary Clinton was supposed to have president — to push the U.S. into either the arms of the globalists or the communists. The fourth stage is normalization. That’s what Brezhnev called the Russian tanks invading Prague. Normalization lasts until the regime is overthrown. President Trump wasn’t supposed to have been elected and his 4 years may have temporarily halted this march to overthrow the U.S. government.

  6. “What accounts for the media’s apparent lack of curiosity?”

    The same reason that accounts for the media’s lack of curiosity about many political issues, they likely lead back to a trail of evidence that the virus was secretly used by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to undermine the re-election of Donald Trump, to damage the recovery of the US economy and to punish the Trump Administration for its tough stand against China.

    IMO this was a planned and deliberate attack on the US. The fact that it has crippled other democracies around the world is a bonus for China and the CCP because it is allowing them to accelerate their push to become the dominant superpower in the world ahead of schedule.

    That the ‘illuminati’ in the mainstream media, political leadership, and business and economic leadership have buried this deliberate attack is not a surprise. They all wanted Trump removed from leadership because ‘Making America Great Again’ disrupted their agenda of achieving a global cabal of government and business interests.

    1. Canny Scott and Jim: Right on.
      Globalism once established becomes naturally communism.
      This engineered “pandemic” also serves as research to pin point and identify the resistors among us and get the masses used to conformity like other future vaccination or other similar endeavors.

      Kate: One news source is very vocal on the menace that is China. It’s a weekly print paper called “The Epoch Times” (Canadian edition).
      It is an excellent truly unbiased read. Pure intelligent common sense. I am subscribed to it. For $100.00 a year it is well worth it. By the way you are not buying a bunch of advertisement either…Big names like Conrad Black and Danesh D’Souza are in the opinion section. The best news print on the planet IMO. Trudeau’s Liberal Gov hates it…They even had Canada Post slow down distribution time to discourage membership renewals…My name must be on a black list by now.

  7. This article by Nicholas Wade is well written but contains less, not more, real info than this one-year-old video from Joshua Phillips:
    https://youtu.be/Gdd7dtDaYmM

    So far, none of the info in this video have been disproven. Instead, we get shameful silence.

    1. Manny..
      I watched that Video…simply Excellent…was the first time I ever heard about the Epoch Times.

      The CCP is evil incarnate. Period. I fear their eventual Domination of the planet.. I see nothing that has the courage to stand against them…and much who openly collude with them.

      Epoch Times: They are on my daily read list…
      Them and here.

    2. You are correct.
      I too watched that video last year, and forwarded it to a couple of people I thought might find it of interest. Never heard back if they ever did, so probably not.

      Same thing when I try to pique their interest in therapies, not just relying on vaccines.

      One reasonably intelligent friend, to whom I sent copious info on ivermectin and its many positive studies and results, simply googled it, found the most negative source saying it was not effective or recommended, and disregarded all the other info. You can lead a horse to water…

  8. If there are no excess deaths… Meh. If our government was so easily fooled as to destroy the country because of a snake-oil & patented test and changed flu response protocol that resulted in unnecessary deaths (and isolation), then maybe some government officials should pay?

  9. My biggest question about this whole scenario is over how quickly pharmaceutical companies leapt into developing a vaccine. When news of this odd virus first broke, the WHO and the Chinese government were still proclaiming that there was no evidence the virus could be spread via human-to-human contact, the virus seemed to have come from a wet market in Wuhan, and that only a handful of people had been infected. Why then the rush to develop a vaccine for something that was such a minor problem? Obviously, some people knew some things. What did they know and when did they know it? How did they obtain the genetic code of the virus so fast, how and why did they develop the vaccine so fast? I have to suspect that this information wasn’t being passed to the West by the Chinese government, it was being passed by Western researchers working in China – and why aren’t we hearing from these people who were there from the beginning?

    1. Bingo, Notte! The West is just as corrupt as the Chinese, maybe more so.

  10. Could it be said that “scientists and experts” are cause of the sick world today?
    It is remarkable how they can get away with causing shutting down the world and making the plebeian the problem.

    It looks more and more like a conspiracy even if you don’t want to.
    A conspiracy as opposed to conspiracy theory.

    The daily dose of media propaganda must make people go bonkers.
    There is a saying, “the wise will ignore it and the stupid think that’s the way it’s supposed to be”.

    And so it is.

  11. As I understand the crux of this Faux-ci accusation is he was involved in dangerous coronavirus research, despite warning of all things the Obama administration and might be implicated in the creation and escape of SARS COVID 19? Have I got that right?

    1. Color me surprised.
      It’s why Kenny/Notley is cracking down on outdoor rodeos, outside the cities, but city protests are allowed, no encouraged. See Tronna today. You can’t get a haircut today, or sit outside on a patio in town. Curfews are next ’cause de vibrous only works in de dark.
      The infantile musings of our infantile overlords, who are getting paid while you’re put out of work. Lockdowns will continue, until morale improves.

  12. Well?
    What more evidence do you need?
    Jason Kenny is screeching that he needs a new class of follower,cause of his utter failure to lead and man up to the responsibility of his position..
    Everywhere the “cases of covid” increase,that mantra is coming from our elites,”Bad Peasants,it is your fault for not obeying our orders”
    When asked which ones?
    All of them especially the mutually contradictory ones,seems to be our answer..
    We need a new class of elites,world wide…
    This dread Covid Theatre has certainly spotlit the incompetence,malice, ignorance and arrogance of our current crop.

    Oh yes,government wisdom ,saw fit to finance this “Gain of Function” meddling..
    Well why not?
    It was only taxpayers money..And what could go wrong?
    Worst case you kill off a whole bunch of citizens who are no longer paying taxes and even worse they are asking awkward questions about “Where are our damn pensions?”.
    Best case?
    Damned if I can imagine what the so called benefit was to be,unless it was the same as the worst case..deliberate population reduction,especially of those owed money by government..?
    So now we have seen the masks come off.
    These fools and bandits we have allowed to hold the centre stage of our public affairs,have all failed most miserably.
    Gloating over their “Emergency Powers” they have betrayed every promise and every oath of office they ever swore to..
    Time to replace them all.
    Their Two Weeks is long up.
    Effete is a polite way of describing the stunning delusions of adequacy demonstrated by these twits.

  13. The same takedown of climate science applies. Science has become politicized to the point that accepting the word of scientists is a crap shoot or merely confirmation bias.
