🚨 Fauci’s under-oath deposition is now out.

He was asked about a 2011 op-ed he wrote supporting gain-of-function research, despite its risks.

As he’s answering, Fauci tells opposing counsel that he hopes he got his flu shot.💉

Op-Ed’s here: web.archive.org/web/2016081820…) 2/ Asked if he’s met Wuhan WIV’s bat woman Shi Zhengli or Zhengli Shi, Fauci says no, though maybe he ran into her at a meeting.

Did he run into her at the 2017 conference (blocks from the Pentagon), where Fauci, the head of China’s CDC, & Shi all spoke?

🧵Why was UNC coronavirus expert Ralph Baric so sure his Remdesivir was gonna work against COVID-19’s virus?

For Baric, a Remdesivir developer who’d only tested it on mice, doesn’t that seem a bit overconfident? 2/ In 2019, was anyone at Ft. Detrick or Montana’s RML labs testing Remdesivir on monkeys infected w/ SARS or a SARS-like virus?

Does anyone know what happened to any Ft. Detrick lab monkeys when its BSL-4 lab shut down for safety reasons in 2019? 🙈🙉

🧵Gabe Bankman-Fried, head of Guarding Against Pandemics, & the brother of Sam Bankman-Fried (@SBF_FTX), launched a huge ad buy in 2021 to support a $30 billion increase in federal pandemic prevention funding. 2/Gabe Bankman-Fried & his brother think the US should spend $30 Billion more on pandemic prevention (even if COVID-19 may be from pandemic research gone bad).

@SBF_FTX tweeted: "Spending $30B now to be prepared vs Losing $3T in economic activity and restricting freedom later"

🧵Does UNC’s Baric have a secret SARS-like virus he built off a Wuhan lab virus?

If not secret, where is it?

Missing is “WIV1-MA15” a mouse-adapted bat virus from Wuhan lab’s WIV1.

He called it “poised to emerge” in 2015 paper.

Authors list sequences in papers. Where’s his? Image 2/ In 2021, Baric told a reporter they “purposely” obscured/hid “the chimera” SARS-like virus back in 2015.

He published the sequence to “SHC014-MA15” in 2020, after 6 yrs of hiding it.

Did he only publish 1 of 2 SARS-like chimeras he made & wrote about?

Where’s WIV1-MA15? Image

🧵Covid accident(s) at UNC Baric Lab 2013-2014.

5 mice escaped—3 part of Baric Lab cross experiments, at least 1 w/ mouse-adapted SARS-CoV in it.

The SARS1 little critter was caught w/ a broom.

Any word on other 4?

Cat got your tongue, UNC?

documentcloud.org/documents/2317… Image 2/ 2016 UNC accident w/ a SARS-like virus (UNC won’t say which 1).

"As she carried the mouse, it climbed up its tail and bit her hard, breaking through the gloves and plunging its teeth—and potentially the [SARS-like corona]virus—into her ring finger."

Can we ask a few ques. about US’s COVID patient zero: 35-yr-old man who visited Wuhan family for 6 WEEKS, goes to Seattle-area urgent care Jan 19, sent HOME. CDC confirms+ & moves to hospital, develops pneumonia in hospital days later, given Remdesivir, recovers, discharged. This PBS piece details US’s patient zero. Says he was in Wuhan for 6 weeks before showing up at a Seattle area urgent clinic claiming symptoms Jan. 19, 2020. Said he’d had a fever, a cough, & been to Wuhan. His temp was 98.96, chest xray clear. Sent home.

New paper from guys who found BANAL virus in Laos cave (3 yrs after US DOD was at SAME cave), says:

‘Hey guys, so that super special cleavage thing in COVID-19’s virus—it’s not natural in any bats anyone has found &, um, to say this politely, it’s possibly from a lab accident.’ In 2017 US Navy’s at EXACT Laos bat cave where in 2020 Pasteur finds BANAL virus (which has closest match to RBD of COVID’s virus).

Laos approved French research June 2, 2020. French found COVID’s cousin on July 5, 2020.

Navy still won’t release its 2017 Laos finds.

Why not?

A Texas-based, U.S.-funded scientist at Galveston’s National lab was AT China’s Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) on Oct. 19-20, 2019, his recently released emails reveal. Pei-Yong Shi, who works at the University of Texas Medical Branch’s biolab, has been at the DOD/NIH/CDC-funded Texas lab for over 5 yrs.

In addition to visiting the WIV Oct. 19-20, 2019, he also was at China’s newest BSL-4 lab, just as it was getting final certification to open.

Virologist Dr. Angela Rasmussen says COVID-19's virus is from nature & her Twitter feed against anyone who argues otherwise is a thing to behold.

FWIW, from 2016 to 2020, she worked on deadly viruses w/ DOD's DARPA, DTRA, & Dept. of Homeland Security, & at NIH's BSL4 RML biolab. Image She worked at Columbia U. w/ virologist Ian Lipkin, while he received multiple awards from the Chinese Gov't for his virus work & while on Dec. 15, 2019, he learned from Chinese colleagues about a novel coronavirus outbreak (podcast min 17:04).

2017 Drosten edits Wuhan scientists’ SARS1 paper.

2021 Wiesendanger puts out COVID origins paper. 2022 says Drosten hiding origins info.

2022 German court says don’t talk mean about Drosten. 🧐

🚨EXCLUSIVE: Why did DOD & USAID give EcoHealth Alliance funds for pandemic research on Jarvis Island in the Pacific Ocean?

My latest Substack shows that funds to study bat viruses in Western Asia, were rerouted to an island, 1,300 miles from Hawaii.

capitolsheila.substack.com/p/did-dod-pay-… 2/ Federal funding files show EcoHealth Alliance getting DOD funds for bat virus research in Western Asia & spending it on Jarvis Island.

Jarvis Island has no published connection to bats, is definitely not in Western Asia, but does have birds related to a dangerous virus.

Last week, Congress passed & Biden signed into law $1 BILLION for a NEW health program modelled after the super-secret DOD agency known as DARPA.

ARPA-H got $1B & a paragraph; the legislation setting the program details isn't done yet.

Biden's HHS Secretary can put it in NIH. What breakthroughs await our newly funded (secret?), $1 billion-a-year advanced research projects agency for health (ARPA-H) at HHS? 🦇🐁🧐

Coronavirus expert Edward Holmes visited Wuhan a bunch.

He photographed Wuhan’s wet market in 2014.

Was pictured in Wuhan hospital in 2016.

A 2020 profile says he “RECENTLY” had been studying patients w/ “similar” (COVID-like) symptoms at a Wuhan hospital.

Wait, what? ImageImage Did Aussie scientist & Holmes’ coronavirus colleague Danielle Anderson take any photos inside the WIV BSL-4 bio lab where she worked w/ Wuhan’s bat lady before leaving Wuhan Nov. 2019?

She then worked as Facebook COVID fact-checker. Censored folks. 👀🧐

Virologist Kristian Andersen (million $ NIH grantee) wrote his mind was changed in ~5 days cause UNC’s Baric lab & Wuhan’s WIV “investigated COMMON” viruses in their labs.

So just wondering if anyone looked at their UNCOMMON lab viruses? Anyone?

Is COVID officially a 3-Stoges operation? 1st, COVID emerges, then secret call w NIH-grantees who said yikes, virus NOT natural, looks engineered, after call virus now 💯 natural & notes secret. Variant emerges near lab studying COVID. COVID mouse bites and infects researcher. Evidently, our very own Larry, Moe, and Curly at the NIH have been up to their routine for a long time. @R_H_Ebright pointed this out before, how maybe NIH took over where DOD couldn’t go.

@Daoyu15 This 2017 US Navy-funded study of Laos bats turned up lots of stuff the French group isn’t allowed to publish, we hear. French go back in 2020 & now tell world “Hey guys, bat cave in Laos has really similar stuff to SARS2.”

Laos bat viruses? DOD?
Secrets in a pandemic? Why? @Daoyu15 The 2020-21 Laos bat viruses that, surprise, are like SARS-CoV2 (the virus that causes COVID-19) have seemed fishy for a while, as these guys detail:

He’s worked on the mRNA vax to prevent COVID, Remdesivir to treat it, & even on the new COVID pill.

He also works at UNC's Baric lab, making novel bat coronaviruses stick to humanized mice & he works with the Wuhan Institute & with EcoHealth.

COVID causes coincidences. Image UNC’s Baric’s lab uses “humanized mice.” They add human fetal lung parts into the backs of the mice, make novel bat viruses, & get them to stick in the mice w/ inserted human lungs. Older humanized mice get sicker.

UNC lab researchers created pandemic bat viruses to study them. Image

1/ A "captive bat colony" in Madison, Wisconsin was proposed as a test site for a 2018 grant to EcoHealth, UNC's Baric, WIV, Duke-NUS, & USGS's Dr. Rocke to assess a delivery method for their chimeric bat virus vaccine. DARPA denied their proposal.

Were U.S. tests ever run? 2/ Dr. Rocke works for USGS's National Wildlife Health Center (NWHC) & she's on the $14 mil DARPA grant proposal published by DRASTIC. The proposal details Dr. Rocke's role & states they will be "Using locally acquired insectivorous bats" & "will use the NWHC captive bat colony"

Trying to explain what folks are seeing: last week DRASTIC released a leaked 2018 DARPA grant that wasn’t funded, but had some wild proposals: i.e. UNC/EcoH/WIV proposed spraying China’s caves w/bat vaccines made using bat viruses, to protect the world from a bat virus pandemic. They wrote about adding a furin cleavage site into their lab’s bat viruses & asked DOD to fund them. (The existence of a furin cleavage site in the COVID-19 virus has had scientists scratching their heads, normal bat viruses don’t have these furin cleavage sites, they tell us.)
