An interesting Politico article by Michael Callahan, former biosafety physician for the U.S. State Department’s Bio-Industry Initiative in the former Soviet Union and Bio-Engagement Program in Asia. politico.com/news/magazine/…
One key section:
Which basically links bak to Jasper Baker's recent book:
Made in China - Wuhan, Covid and the Quest for Biotech Supremacy hurstpublishers.com/book/made-in-c…
Another key sections which is fully in line with what I have written before:
Last year, I also described the Taiwan P4 Lab SARS infection where Lt. Colonel Chan tried indeed to hide it from his superiors.

Spahn and Tedros made their comments at the inauguration of a new virus-monitoring center in Berlin, dubbed the WHO Hub for Pandemic and Epidemic Intelligence. politico.eu/article/who-be…
An initial $100 million investment by the German government is funding the hub, which will be led by Chikwe Ihekweazu, currently director general of the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control.

Sources said the Defense Intelligence Agency is the one agency that firmly believes in the lab leak theory. According to one source, the DIA’s confidence is based on work with a little-known institute under its control called the National Center for Medical Intelligence,
which was renamed in 2009 from the Armed Forces Medical Intelligence Center.
The center’s mission is to gather and analyze all sources of worldwide health threats, including foreign medical capabilities, infectious disease and health risks of national military importance.
