1. DISASTER ZONE! Thank you @imogen_braddick

Crumbling sewers, no PPE, & filthy cages

Inside ‘chaotic & crowded’ Wuhan labs which may have unleashed Covid

Billy Bostickson, an anonymous researcher from DRASTIC & Yvette Ghannam, compiled a damning 60-page report on the labs.
2. DISASTER ZONE!

Bostickson and Ghannam confirmed the errors "support the possibility of a lab leak" of Covid, "either via an experimental animal or an infected researcher at one of the Wuhan University laboratories".
3. DISASTER ZONE!

"The authors noted another disturbing finding at the nearby Wuhan Institute of Biological Products. During their investigation into the facility, they found its sewage & drainage systems were damaged and old, "potentially contaminating local canals and creeks"
4. DISASTER ZONE!

Shocking biosecurity lapses spanning over 40 years!

And now a detailed examination of a host of other labs in Wuhan which carry out coronavirus research on bats has revealed a catalogue of shocking errors.
5. What the Monkey Saw in Wuhan

and even he was shocked at the mess!
6. Our 3rd report hotlinked in the SUN article

Researchers have uncovered a number of unnerving biosafety hazards at the WIV, the Wuhan Institute of Biological Products, the Wuhan Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, and Wuhan University.

7. Under DRASTIC Scrutiny!

And they say suspicion does need to be just on WIV - but potentially all the labs in Wuhan need to come under scrutiny in the hunt for Covid's origins.
8. In 2019, just months before the deadly virus started spreading across the world, an inspection of the labs at Wuhan University revealed how the rooms were filled with "lots of debris", there were no safety facilities, and students did not wear lab coats.
9. Researchers also revealed the whopping size of the animal experimentation centre at the WIV, where suspicions have grown over the origins of the pandemic.

Built in 1996, the 1,216 m2 facility contains 3,268 cages of live animals, including 12 ferret cages and 12 bat cages.
10. Live Bats

The lab captures bats from the wild to be used as experimental animals, the researchers said - with video this week appearing to be the first to show the live creatures at WIV.
11. 'ACCIDENTAL LEAK'

"At least three laboratories were actively involved in studies of bat coronaviruses and/or bat sampling activities without the use of proper PPE in the years leading up to the Covid-19 pandemic," Bostickson and Ghannam said.

"
12. Three Laboratories

"These three laboratories are thus considered potential sources for accidental leaks whether within the laboratory or during field sampling expeditions."
13. Whistleblowers, Documents and Subpoenas

Speaking to The Sun Online, Bostickson said the study provides more circumstantial evidence of a lab leak

"We need more whistleblowers, more internal documents, we need Daszak & others to be subpoenaed & questioned"
14. You never know...

Asked whether a lab leak could have been accidental or intentional, Bostickson said:" I don't think [it was] deliberate but you never know."
15. "DRASTIC never only focused on WIV..."

Gilles Demaneuf, a data analyst from DRASTIC, told The Sun Online the WIV is a "good contender" for the source of the lab leak - but it could have emerged from one of a number of labs in Wuhan.

@gdemaneuf
16. "Lax Approach to Biosecurity"

Richard H Ebright, professor of chemistry & chemical biology at Rutgers University, also said staff working on projects around bat SARS-related coronaviruses at the WIV were poorly protected & there was a lax approach to biosecurity @R_H_Ebright
17. Prof Ebright said:
"they used PPE, usually just gloves; sometimes not even gloves & safety standards were usually just BSL 2, posing high risk of infection of field-collection, field-survey, or lab staff in contact with a virus having transmission properties of SARS-CoV-2"
18. The Stakes are High!

"Xi Jinping ‘could be OVERTHROWN’ if Wuhan lab leak is proven as world punishes China for Covid chaos"

1. "We’ll be seen as spies, not scientists.”

x.com/emilyakopp/sta…

Daszak "seems" confused when questioned BY @RepJamesComer whether he ever worked with, or for, spooks.

Unsurprisingly in light of what is shown on page 79 of the DRASTIC EHA files

researchgate.net/publication/39… x.com/Dylan_Housman/…Image
2. He may claim it was post pandemic contact

But thanks to @AGHuff we know it went back quite a while, at least to 2015.

@AGHuff 3. More questions from @NameIsSpartacus

We need to find out why Peter Daszak & EcoHealth had In-Q-Tel backing and why Nathan Wolfe (an obvious intelligence asset with links to Epstein/Maxwell, Boris Nikolic, and Bill Gates) was on their editorial board.

🧵My comments and some conclusions regarding the EHA documents we found:

1. Peter Daszak actively schemed to foil congressional and other investigations into EcoHealth Alliance (EHA) and its ties to the Wuhan Institute of Virology, as revealed in the DRASTIC document stash.
2⃣ He orchestrated a “Coalition of Support” with former USAID officials like Dennis Carroll and NGOs like the Smithsonian, which sent letters (e.g., April 24, 2020, to NIH) decrying grant cuts as political attacks to deflect scrutiny (Part 6, p.35-36).
3⃣ Daszak hired the Kyle House Group (KHG) to lobby against NDAA defunding amendments, with KHG’s Porter joining meetings like one on August 4, 2023, with Rep. Adam Smith’s staff to kill Sen. Joni Ernst’s provisions (Part 7, p.52).

Baric's hACE2 transgenic mice were shared with the WIV for GOF like virus experiments designed to "assess" the potential for coronaviruses to jump from animals to humans.

We asked how many were sent to WIV

2. Baric spills his humanized mice beans to Father Racaniello during a heart rending TWIV confessional in March 2020, admitting he sent his hACE2 mice to WIV in 2018 (as part of the infamous NIAID grant mentioned above):

3. Daszak

"Our R01 work shows that bats in South China harbor many SARSr-CoVs (50+), some of which are able to use human ACE2 to enter human cells, infecting humanized mouse models to cause SARS-like illness, and evade available therapies or vaccines"

1. New England Biolabs & Novagen

The amplified Rp3-S1 fragment was digested with BamHI & XhoI & ligated into the expression vector pMAL-C2X (New England Biolabs).

The 5 truncated fragments were digested with BamHI & XhoI and ligated into the expression vector pET32a (Novagen).
2. Promega & Takara

Protein expression & purification

After purification, recombinant plasmid was transformed into BL21 competent cells (purchased from Promega)

Recovered PCR product & expression vector pET32a were digested with restriction endonucleases BamHI & XhoI (Takara).
3. Takara (2)

After DNA recovery, the PCR product was ligated to the expression vector pET32a using T4 DNA ligase (Takara)
