Chinese Hackers Are Targeting Virus Research
Hackers working for the Chinese government are trying to steal valuable research on coronavirus vaccines and treatments from U.S. health care, pharmaceutical and research organizations, the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security warned Wednesday.
“China’s efforts to target these sectors pose a significant threat to our nation’s response to Covid-19,” the Federal Bureau of Investigation and DHS’s Cybersecurity Infrastructure Security Agency said in a joint statement.
“The potential theft of this information jeopardizes the delivery of secure, effective and efficient treatment options,” the agencies said.
The announcement represents an escalation in U.S. efforts to combat Chinese espionage and cyber-attacks. It comes as President Donald Trump attempts to blame the Chinese government for not doing more to prevent the global spread of the coronavirus, which has killed more than 80,000 people in the U.S. and ravaged the economy.
“attempts to blame”…
China’s People’s Liberation Army has been involved in scientific research, co-funded by the Australian government, into the origins of the coronavirus which has been published in esteemed medical journals.
In an explosive revelation, a study co-funded by the Australian Research Council and the Chinese government, and trumpeted by The University of Sydney as helping to solve the puzzle of how COVID-19 transferred from animals to humans, relied on a key laboratory in an institute in the People’s Liberation Army’s Academy of Military Medical Sciences to conduct its “genetic sequencing” and “virus isolation”.

It is indeed curious that on Dec 30 Shi Zhengli's database description was changed. In particular, it is interesting to see "vector insects" changed to "rats". Weren't they also working on mosquito-transmitted viruses like Zika/dengue? Why would they start distancing from that? pic.twitter.com/rGGcqY2vLW

It’s typical of the Chinese but this time there is a tinge of desperation about it.
Hackers? Hell they just need to e-mail Teresa Tam and Blackface for anything Five Eye’s knows.
Yes, Canadians excel at giving away our technology for free.
Any update yet on the Manitoba lab that dismissed some staff and students? The web is dark and cold on that “administrative” issue.
NEVER trust a chinaman.
My wife was upset with me when I told her I would NEVER set foot in a chinese business again be it grocery store or restaurant.
She said” isn’t that a little harsh?”
I said no Covid-19 is a little harsh.
Interesting that London Drugs(big retail chain in B.C. and Alberta) is setting up dedicated sections in their stores to sell Canadian made products.
Its going to be hard to avoid chinese(crap) goods but I’m at least going to try.
“NEVER trust a chinaman.”
Really? All of them? Not even the doctor that stitched my leg back together last summer? Or our niece’s husband, the dentist? Not him either?
Really? You mean people who run from communism, who left HK or Macao to avoid the red plague are the bad guys? How about who have been here for generations? They’re bad too? We can do better than that.
Prohibit entry for anyone with a PRC passport? Sure.
Confiscate property of Chicom nationals, their mansions and luxuries, auction all that and distribute the profits to victims of the Chicom plague? Sure.
Round up the high scocial score mafia and keep them in prison until Michaels are released? No problem.
Nationalize all Chicom investment, then auction and redistribute to victims? Absolutely.
But do not confuse people who escaped China and communism with the collaborators. We should be opening Canada for HK dissidents and we should be patronizing their businesses.
horney, just how stupid are you, Chinese people are a very diverse demographic, so not all the same. I worked with 2 PHDs who were Chinese, both very competent and very Canadian. And some wonder why conservatives are pegged as racists,, it’s fools like you who help determined that. You must be a good and proud Kristian!!
Obviously. Most of the Hong Kong folks who immigrated to Vancouver years ago do not have a lot of time for some newer arrivals. They are actually better than we U.K.1800 pioneers at discriminating between the good, bad and ugly.
Oh naughty boy, Horny Toad. You are such a racist. Sarc on
Actually, we just like products that work. And real dog food.
I believe London Drugs is owned by H.Y. Louie. He purchased it in 1975. His dad paid a $50 head tax to enter the country. How do you reconcile that?
London Drugs eh..? Good on them.
I too will endeavour to avoid ChiComm stuff.
I drive a GM and all the parts are OEM or AC-Delco
I shoot Nikon – all purchases are either to Japan or Thailand
I eat Vietnamese – easily 15 yrs now…far better food.
And i have no issue paying $25-35 for a decent US/Canada made T-Shirt.
My laptop is an updated macbook pro (2013 vintage).
My phone is a BlackBerry Motion – no idea where that was made..?? lol. (I just can’t see paying $1300 for a flippin iphone XX – not happening NEVER.) Besides I still have 2 perfectly good BB Z30’s (4g)…if my Motion shits the bed.
All in all….? SCREW the ChiComms…in any way we/you can.
ACDelco parts are mostly made in China.

I figure you’re safe from a break in.
Dr. Fauci says the CCP should call him and he’ll pay US tax dollars for them to have the research.
That is why the Vaccine MUST be keep top secret…The Globalists want total control of the World… The Method used to get the vaccine into the human anti-body system is what BIO-weapon researchers want….
Fauci is a fool tool for the Communist Hords…What a moron…. Scary, Scary, May, Could, all the weasel words used by shysters… Until he can say definitely “SHALL” he & his minions needs to shut the fuck up
JMHO
I’ll say it here since it’s pretty unlikely this is being monitored, but there was a program in the 80’s when Russian assets stole gas plant operating programs from a Canadian company. The CIA was actually competent back then and the results were everything that could be wished. Draw your own conclusions….

President Trump is the ONLY US Politician with the balls, and the resources to call China out … any other politician in the WH … will revert to teabagging the ChiComs … because $$$$$. Because …1.3 Billion customers. PDJT … will go down as the WORST … most DESTRUCTIVE President in the history of the US … when the ChiCom’s are writing American History … because we are their Satellite State.
Kenji, I totally agree with you. President Trump is the only LEADER, globally, during this crisis. I hope and pray he wins in November because, if he doesn’t, I shudder to think about the future.
Gotta say it has a certain appeal to have bogus research posted for the hackers to feast upon!
Me bad! Serves them right. Designs with hard to find intentional flaws work for me!
“Weren’t they also working on mosquito-transmitted viruses like Zika/dengue? Why would they start distancing from that? “
I dunno, because it’s the next thing they are going to attack us with.
Spitballing here.
The 800 lb gorilla in the room is that eventually Canada is going to be deemed a security threat due to our government pandering and allowing the chicoms to use Canada as a back door to the US.
DJT did it once over steel dumping by the chicoms and he wouldn’t hesitate to do it again.
Hear, Hear!
Rational folk have no choice!
“Really? All of them? Not even the doctor that stitched my leg back together last summer? Or our niece’s husband, the dentist? Not him either?”
How about the thousands of chinese students caught sending info back to China.How about the DR.who was escorted by Police out of the Virus lab in Winnipeg and deported to China.How about the chinamen in the Vancouver area who imported masks(probably defective) from China and were selling then at $20 each.
yes horney, you are exactly the same as unDork, gitit???
Oh you mean those that have been sent here by Chicom government? That had to undergo rigorous brainwashing and have the relevant social credit score to prove? You think that those are the same people that escaped here not be subjected to the Chicom tyranny? You’re playing directly into Chicom hands. They too want the world to believe that there is only one China and that all Chinese support them. Do you even realize that in Canada Chicom operatives are targeting Chinese dissenters? That our government is doing everything in its power to marginalize Chinese freedom fighters in order not antagonize the Chicom? That our government is purposefully muddling the waters and collaborating against Chinese people who are opposing the Chicom?
We should be doing everything to promote these people. Even if you don’t care for them, they are the enemy of Chicoms.
They want to steal as much research as they can so they can improve their bioweapons.
Do not get surprised by the mushroom cloud over Beijing. It is coming.
About those 80,000 covid fatalities in the US…
https://durangoherald.com/articles/324539
Not exactly a right wing rag.
When “reporting” Covid 19 fatalities I wish that any source quoting the same
government that says they think it wise to allow “suspected” cases at the same time
they reward 13,000 USD per case plus 39,000 USD per ventilator patient,
(to compensate for the income from cases [ people that died from lack of “priority”], would
take into consideration that these are the same people that have been trying to shove down your throat
the Carbon Tax and anything else they can to destroy Conservatives.
Please!! Consider
Meanwhile, Canada via the NRC is co-funding research with the CCP to develop a vaccine. This is an outrage! Personally, I will not be a guinea pig.
Flick. They can not even produce Face masks to standard.
I will only take an eventual vaccine from a reputable private firm.
L no vaccine for me, I guess my death by government will be an eventuality.
Kate: your titles are seriously brilliant! One flu out of the Wuhan nest. … Very, very clever …. thank you for your work on this site
Eventually? Trump has been all over that by closing the Border to Canada as fast as he could.
Who doesn’t know by now that Canada is a premier sanctuary country for the Worlds criminals and terrorists. I thought the US caught on to that after 911. Of course Obama and the Clinton’s didn’t care, the more criminality the better for those cockroaches and of course Trudeau.
I really like Yuri Deigin scientific assessment and read it 2 times—-with my limit knowledge it shows covid 19 has a marked resemblance to Sars! The peptide joiner of the first and second phase of the virus is remarkable!
His assessment is this development would take a millennium of time to develop——in the natural world!!!
So Covid 19 came from a Wuhan Lab! No wonder Dr. Shi Zhengli deleted records!
Their reaction indicated they knew more about this virus from the start! And Trudeau has been sending them money for research!
CHINA OWNS THE WORLD A HUGE DEBT! So does our Leader!
in a comment to a article on web site gates of Vienna.. a linda hall states that the husband and wife team of chi com bug scientists personally oversaw the packing and shipping of carona virus from Winnipeg bug lab to Wuhan bug lab.. how does she know this??google linda hall name and go down the rabbit hole…. i hope she is well and not in danger
Yes, that Winnipeg lab has to tell Canadians all about the purported “policy breach”.
