2. via @ydeigin and @franciscodeasis
it’s a very disturbing paper if its findings are verified: not only SARS2 and RaTG13 have signs of genetic manipulation in yeast but SARS1 too.
WIV is known to have eyed yeast reverse genetic systems with interest (see attached WIV thesis
3. The Author has published quite a few interesting papers with 1870 citations.

7. Dr. Weiss's Magic Yeast

What this means is that instead of having to reconstruct the viral DNA first before introducing it into cells, you instead “put all these fragments in the yeast and it magically puts them together,” says Weiss.
8. TAR, YAC & DNA

transformation associated recombination (TAR)

yeast artificial chromosome (YAC)

Data Not Available (DNA) Don't believe me? Ask WIV!

“The capacity to recombine things to a YAC by themselves is just amazing,” says Jores.

The National Natural Science Foundation of China

1. Jian Kang, a retired associate professor from New York Medical College, pointed out the following evidence supporting the Laboratory leak of the SARS-COV-2 Virus Image
2. The National Natural Science Foundation of China provided zero funding for the research on the origin and intermediate host of the SARS-Cov-2 virus, while the funding for research on the origin and intermediate host of the SARS-1 virus was nearly 2 million. Image
3. The main supporting evidence for a natural origin of SARS-COV- 2 is finding the intermediate host.

From the perspective of profit & loss, the biggest beneficiary of finding an intermediate host is China, to show that the virus comes from nature, not a man-made disaster. Image

1. William Karesh - What we know
@Bobby_Network has just made an interesting thread on Bill Karesh and the fingers he has in many pies

However, there is more that we know and researched before which I will add here as a reference thread.
3. The "secret handshake" club
Michael Callahan was in Nanjing in December 2019 and would know more about Agency funding via "United Therapeutics"
Daszak dealt more with DTRA, DARPA & DOD via Jonathan Epstein & Bill Karesh for US virus collection project.

1. Someone on Linkedin asked this interesting question:

Anyone care to speculate why Fauci FOIA emails to non-government individuals (especially to Zuckerberg and Daszak) are heavily redacted with these codes?

(b)(4), (b)(6), (b)(7)(A)
2. (b)(4)

Reveal information that would impair the application of state-of-the-art technology within a U.S. weapon system
3. (b)(6)

Reveal information, including foreign government information, that would cause serious harm to relations between the United States and a foreign government, or to ongoing diplomatic activities of the United States
