After fully reading the article, I think @sciencecohen does write a fairly well balanced analysis, especially the last half, and lists most criticisms of EHA and WIV.
He also mentions #DRASTIC and hot links to our DEFUSE documents.
Thank you @sciencecohen and shame on @theintercept for failing to do so and instead uploading our work to document cloud to avoid linking to our website.
" Daszak readily acknowledges the Chinese government’s lack of transparency. “Do I think China’s done a lousy job of openly discussing what happened? Oh, absolutely,” he says. He says he also has encouraged WIV to make public its audits of Shi’s lab"
Daszak's Claims (2) Walking Back?
"Finally, there’s the possibility that WIV unwittingly had a bat sample with SARS-CoV-2, which somehow leaked. “Of course it’s possible—things have happened in the past,” Daszak says. But he has seen no evidence"
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.
1. "DOJ subpoenaed EcoHealth’s communications (inlcuding WeChat) with, at least, Dr. Shi. This subpoena included both Dr. Shi’s official WIV email address & her Hotmail"
2. “DoJ subpoena for genetic sequences, docs — almost complete”
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
