Recent @WhiteCoatWaste FOIA release
Laos to WIV, 2018!
"LAOS PI or Co-Investigators to conduct field
trip to assess markets, identify wildlife in them & arrange for shipment of bats and other high-risk host species to WIV Laboratory in China"
scribd.com/document/53702…
All Roads & Bats lead to the Wuhan institute of Death
If PD won't tell us, then these people need to be asked some questions about exactly aht samples they sent to WIV.
Wuhan University..
The usual suspects
Risks of Exposure to Coronavirus Infection
Aleksei Chmura (2015):
"We do not have formal plans to provide participants with information about minimizing risks of exposure to Coronavirus infection"
DoD, July 2019
To be more precise....Department of the Navy
Remember the LAOS expedition in 2017?
US DoD and Pasteur Institute were in Feuang District where the closest bat coronavirus, Banal 20 52, came from, back in 2017
2016, Page 378
"In addition, your progress report makes reference to two chimeric bat SARS-like CoVs constructed on a WIV-1 backbone"
Fast forward to 2018
"Pathogenicity of 2 new bat SARS-related covs to transgenic mice expressing human ACE2"
Signing off for now with the Wuhan University ABSL3
More on that particular laboratory here:
Pages 5 to 17
researchgate.net/publication/35…
"Experimental work using humanized mice will be
conducted at the Center for Animal Experiment Biosafety 3 lab of Wuhan University"
Lab Mice also at WIV ABSL3! (P. 234)
Laboratory mice will be housed in the BSL-3 small animal facility Center for Animal Experiment
at Wuhan Institute of Virology . Two senior Wuhan Institute of Virology veterinarians (Drs. An XueFang and Zhang Fan) will oversee the experiments"
Why we need to see Dr. Daszak's Emails (P. 234)
"The Veterinarian in charge will notify the on-site Co-P l (Dr. Zheng li Shi) and the Principal Investigator (Dr. Daszak) by telephone and email if there are any issues regarding animal health and welfare"
Ben Hu's grant, for sure (Page 18)

Location of Project: Wuhan Institute of Virology, CAS
Why a bad idea, you may ask?
Explained here (Pages 53 and 54):
"unknown or undetected highly pathogenic bat viruses would have been able to replicate clandestinely in WIV bat cell lines as they would not have been constrained by a bat immune system"
