1. Russian Biolab Claims: A Controversial Topic

Good luck using your critical thinking skills to seperate wheat from chaff so that you can decide what is propaganda & what is fact.

Of course the easy options are to dismiss everything as lies or to swallow everything as fact.
2. What I recommend

If you are interested in a balanced analysis of the Russian claims and all the detailed evidence presented by Kirillov before his assassination in Moscow, as well as relted topics, then I highly recommend you plough through those threads at your leisure.
3. Documents & Russian claims on Projects UP-4 (avian flu) Flu-Flyway (wild ducks & bird flu), P-781 (bat coronaviruses), UP-8 (CCHF, Leptospirosis Hanta viruses):

1. 'CONSPIRACY OF SILENCE"

Pentagon was told 6 times that Covid was lab leak at start of pandemic – but buried the truth, ex-intel official says.

Story now published with intriguing detail by @imogen_braddick after we informed her of John Myers Tweet

thesun.co.uk/news/32257526/… x.com/BillyBostickso…
2. John Myers said that:

he "knows with absolute certainty" that top US military chiefs were told Covid had leaked from a lab in Wuhan.

"the Joint Chiefs of Staff were briefed in October 2019 - more than five years ago - about a new virus that had leaked from a lab in China"
3. Claims

This was briefed in Oct& Nov 2019 as a lab leak.

It was in the intelligence. We briefed it. It was accepted. I briefed it numerous times about a viral outbreak and that it was from a lab.

"Over the course of late Nov & Dec, it came up 6 or 7 times in briefings.

This is BIG so sit tight!

1. WIV did have Pangolins in 2019 (we now have proof)

2. WIV isolated Pangolin/HKU4/MERS like Covs with Furin Sites in 2019, just before the pandemic!
3. Important Note

If you have not done so already, please read the linked thread above before continuing, it will make much more sense if you do so.
4. GX Pangolins at WIV in 2019!

From the Horse's Mouth in 2024!

"In 2019 & 2020, 86 anal swab samples & 80 serum samples were collected from Guangxi pangolins"

"Pangolin samples were transported & stored at Wuhan Institute of Virology, CAS"

Pangolin Riddle!

MpCoV-GX Isolated in 2017 said YiGang Tong

BUT ZLS & Yi GangTong in 2023 said:

"MpCoV-GX was isolated in 2019"

SARS-CoV-2-Related Virus from Malayan Pangolin

pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC99…

Accession data says submission date is 8 FEB 2020

ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/MT0403… x.com/BillyBostickso…
2. Double Confirmed

Yi Gang Tong confrimed again the 2017 isolation date for MpCov-GX.

He experimented with it, but did not write a paper, and they did not upload the sequence until 8th Feb 2022, just after the beginning of the SARS-COV-2 pandemic

3. Why is this significant?

Yi Gang Tong stated in a paper received on 22 Feb 2020:

"no suspected infections were found in those having close contacts with pangolins"

"Our pangolin coronavirus isolate was routinely cultured in BSL 2 FACILITIES"

Most interesting RaTG13 - SARS-COV 2 paper ever written by Chinese Scientists!

Received 17 July 2020 before Gag Orders kicked in.

Comparative Genomic Analyses Reveal Specific Mutation Pattern Between SARS-CoV-2 & RaTG13

frontiersin.org/journals/micro…

See Tweeets 32 to 35 for Why 👇 x.com/BillyBostickso…
2. Potential Effects of 5-FU

Use of 5-FU during serial passage could lead to increased mutation rates in RNA viruses which might result in variants in enhanced virulence.

However, this is not guaranteed; many mutations can be deleterious rather than beneficial.
3. Using 5-FU

5-fluorouracil can induce mutations during serial passage of RNA viruses that could lead to variants with altered virulence characteristics.

Outcome would depend on specific virus involved, the nature of induced mutations & environmental pressures during passage. Image
