SARS-CoV-2 ‘Never Existed in the Natural World’ — and FBI Knew of Possible Lab Leak in March 2020

1/26/24

trove of documents released last week by U.S. Right to Know (USRTK) may “explain why no one has been able to find the SARS2 virus (aka SARS-CoV-2) infesting a colony of bats,” according to one prominent science reporter.

Writing for City Journal, Nicholas Wade, former science editor for The New York Times, said the newly revealed documents — which showed U.S. scientists were planning to work with scientists from China’s Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) to develop novel coronaviruses, provide evidence that COVID-19 “has never existed in the natural world.”

The USRTK documents revealed that scientists involved with a joint U.S.-China research proposal — “Project DEFUSE” — a year before the outbreak of COVID-19, planned to engineer coronaviruses that would be rare in nature, and that had many similarities with the genome of SARS-CoV-2.

Meanwhile, an investigation by Public published Tuesday revealed the FBI received credible intelligence in March 2020 that COVID-19 had leaked from the WIV — long before the FBI or U.S. government acknowledged a possible lab leak.

And blogger Jim Haslam, who has written extensively on COVID-19’s origin, reported this week that University of North Carolina researcher Ralph Baric, Ph.D., who has worked with Peter Daszak, Ph.D., president of the EcoHealth Alliance, patented genomes “less than 2% different” than SARS-CoV-2, in 2018.

Daszak and Baric were both closely involved with Project DEFUSE.  (See link for article)

Lastly:

Francis Boyle, J.D., Ph.D. said, “Of course the FBI would cover this up,” noting similarities with the 2001 anthrax lab leak which was also covered up by the FBI.  When Boyle told the FBI about the 2001 anthrax leak, no investigation followed, but an authorization to destroy all the strains in the U.S. government lab in Ames, IA.
