Five Questions Only the U.S. Can Answer:

A Response to the Unclassified Summary of the
Intelligence Community Assessment on COVID-19 Origins

1/n
On August 27, 2021, the Intelligence Community (IC) released an unclassified summary of a 90-day Biden administration investigation into the origin of COVID-19.

The Gain-of-Function Hall of Shame series chronicles the biological weapons industrial complex, the bureaucrats who fund it, the corporations that shape it and the existential risk that genetic engineering and synthetic biology pose to us all.

.@OrganicConsumer began this series in search of the #originofCOVID19, something @ronnie_cummins & @mercola covered in their best-selling book, The Truth About COVID-19: Exposing The Great Reset, Lockdowns, Vaccine Passports, and the New Normal. amazon.com/Truth-About-CO…
We hope that reading this series will inspire you to join the movement to ban gain-of-function research on potential pandemic pathogens, along with emerging biotechnologies like gene editing that could also be used as biological weapons.

Eric Lander: How Biden’s Science Secretary Aided the COVID Origins Cover-Up… and Why

...soon to be posted as a new entry in the Gain-of-Function Hall of Shame organicconsumers.org/news/gain-of-f…
Eric Lander is a scientist and biotech entrepreneur who currently serves in President Biden’s Cabinet as his Science Advisor and the Director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy.
Eric Lander is the founding director of the Broad Institute, a genetic engineering and synthetic biology outfit launched by the late Eli Broad, a billionaire philanthrocapitalist who seeded a modern-day eugenics movement based on genetic distinctions and determinism.

Re-upping this because I have recently made my way through the China-WHO full report and annexes on their Phase I study in Wuhan.

What their report tells me is that this team and this approach is not valuable in driving a credible investigation of the #OriginOfCOVID19
My opinion is that a Phase II joint study conducted under the same terms by the same team would be a monumental waste of time and resources.

By all means they can go ahead with it, but a separate actual investigation(s) are required.
Their approach is not even suitable for investigating natural origins, not to mention lab origins.

For instance, did any of the team members or journalists who read their report relay publicly that they had not visited the Wuhan Central Hospital or reviewed its patient data?

1/n Un podcast, en anglais, 15 mn, avec une interview d'une post doctorante du Broad institute, qui explique une partie de ce que j'ai exposé via @mlipsitch #OriginOfCOVID19
2/N Elle explique en particulier la partialité du travail de la commission d'enquête de l'OMS, dont faisait partie P Daszak, financeur des recherches sur le coronavirus au laboratoire de Wuhan à travers EcoHealthAlliance et initiateur et rédacteur de la lettre au Lancet de févr
3/n Elle met l'accent sur l'importance de l'évocation du conspirationnisme pour évacuer l'hypothèse de la fuite d'un laboratoire. C'est un argument qui a été constamment utilisé pendant la pandémie pour évacuer des débats scientifiques légitimes.

The World Health Assembly @WHO is taking place starting Monday.

The Theme:
Ending this pandemic, preventing the next: building together a healthier, safer and fairer world.

To do so, we must find the #OriginOfCOVID19 and prevent it from happening again.

The world missed its chance to have a proper investigation last year, let’s not waste this year’s opportunity.

@DrTedros said he was ready to deploy new missions to investigate a lab leak as a possible origin of Covid-19.

Please convene a new team.

In an earlier open letter from March 4, 2021, a team of interdisciplinary experts (I am in it too!) pointed out the limitations of the current China-WHO study, and suggest actionable and feasible directions for a true investigation of possible lab origins: s.wsj.net/public/resourc…

One year ago, any lab-based hypothesis of the #OriginOfCOVID19 was widely reported to be a debunked conspiracy theory propagated by d/misinformants.

Today some scientists are still arguing about how likely/unlikely a lab origin is, but this will no longer stop an investigation.
The CIA director and director of national intelligence are still investigating natural vs lab origins.
There’s a new committee formed by highly respected scientists who are laying the groundwork for a national commission on covid-19. One of its focuses is the origins of covid-19.

As scientists with relevant expertise, we agree with @WHO @DrTedros, US & 13 other countries, & EU that greater clarity about the #OriginsofCOVID is necessary and feasible to achieve. We must take hypotheses about natural & laboratory spillovers seriously.

Last month @WHO Tedros said he was ready to deploy missions to investigate whether Covid-19 came from a lab.

Chinese media published an unnamed expert: "WHO will have to be held accountable if worldwide effort at [virus] origin tracing enters a deadlock."

This seems a bit like they're saying that if the WHO continues to be open to an investigation of possible lab origins of Covid-19, then the next phase of an investigation into the origins of the pandemic will be stalled. scmp.com/news/china/dip…
To be as clear as possible, @WHO did not say that Covid-19 definitely came from a lab.

It's that a lab/research-related #OriginofCovid19 is still one of the plausible hypotheses & must be properly investigated for the sake of humanity's future survival. who.int/director-gener…
