I think something’s very wrong if evidence of this nature exists and yet is not being shared with the public in a timely manner.

“Expect more bat-CoVs closer to SARS-CoV-2 & some likely w/ FCS or related in nature.” - @peterdaszak

“Op Eds & books planned & many more FoIAs on their way. But if we looks at the scientific data…” - @peterdaszak

Actually the scientific data in @theintercept FOIA has been very illuminating as to the GOF work being performed by EcoHealth and WIV.

“There have been dozens of FoIA’d docs, emails, reports, proposals (even ones that didn’t get funded!).” - @peterdaszak

The FOIA’ed emails show us how @TheLancet letter condemning non-natural origin hypotheses was orchestrated by Daszak.

The FOIA’ed reports and proposals by @theintercept confirmed that there was extensive sampling of SARS-like viruses from thousands of animals and thousands of people in the SARS spillover zone in South China and SE Asia. All transported up to Wuhan over several years.

Even if the funding was revoked, it doesn’t mean the research program was scrapped.

The US funding of the Wuhan research was just symbolic ($600K over 5 years). The Chinese gov has more than enough millions to support its top researchers.

Can you please clarify what you mean by this, @peterdaszak?

“None provide anything more than supposition based on a false accounting of motives or misinterpretation of normal scientific communication & grant review.”

Are the statements in these FOIA’ed documents factual or not?

“Fieldwork involves the highest risk of exposure to SARS or other CoVs, while working in caves with high bat density overhead and the potential for fecal dust to be inhaled.”

This figure in your grant report and proposal. theintercept.com/2021/09/09/cov…

There’s no need to suppose a motive - the data show chimeric SARS-like viruses in your program produced up to ~10,000x higher viral loads in the lungs of humanized mice compared to the parent virus. Some retained ability to cause severe disease in humanized mice like the parent.

Yet, the FOIA’ed documents show that the researchers continued to pitch this research workflow of generating chimeric viruses with unpredictable properties and testing them in cells and humanized animal models at BSL2 & 3 - even proposing to extend it from SARSrCoVs to MERSrCoVs.

It’s disappointing to see that people outside of China are not forthcoming with info directly relevant to the #OriginsOfCovid How many scientists, collaborators, administrators were aware of these docs?

The public only got to see 2014-2019 NIH reports from EcoHealth in Sep 2021.

How can we ask people inside of China to blow the whistle at risk of losing their life and liberty, if even the people outside of China are just sitting on top of info and documents immediately pertinent to finding the #OriginsOfCovid

Can the minority of people not blocked by Peter please help to get his attention? Feel free to screenshot this thread and tweet it @peterdaszak

Some interpreted Daszak’s tweet as unsubstantiated guesses. Meaning he has nothing but is telling people to expect evidence for a natural origin to appear out of thin air.

Experts, please stop doing that. Stop telling people what we will find unless you actually have the data.

Data or it didn’t happen.
