Did China Unleash A Bio-Weapon Upon The World?


WNU Editor: The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists are saying no .... Experts know the new coronavirus is not a bioweapon. They disagree on whether it could have leaked from a research lab (Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists), and they are using this Nature article to validate their conclusion .... The proximal origin of SARS-CoV-2 (Nature). But many are now pointing out errors in the Nature article, and the publications close relationship with China .... China owns Nature magazine’s ass – Debunking “The proximal origin of SARS-CoV-2” claiming COVID-19 definitely wasn’t from a lab (Harvard and the Big House). Adding to this debate are Chinese researchers themselves, starting with the Beijing-sponsored South China University of Technology that made the conclusion in February that 'the killer coronavirus probably originated from a laboratory in Wuhan' .... Did Coronavirus Originate In A Chinese Government Laboratory? (Daily Mail).

My prediction. This debate on China's role in spreading this virus is only starting. And with China continuing to deny access to its Wuhan Center for Disease Control (WHCDC) to outside experts while this pandemic continues to claim thousands of lives each day, its role and demands for accountability will grow.

Update: I concur. The media has completely failed in covering this story .... Questioning coronavirus origins is not a conspiracy It’s up to the media to discover the truth, not accept answers at face value (Stephen L. Miller, Spectator).

Update #2: After posting this story my inbox received a few emails from readers in the U.K. on British news reports that are speculating today on China's role in the spread of this coronavirus. Here is one that summarizes it nicely .... Did coronavirus leak from a research lab in Wuhan? Startling new theory is 'no longer being discounted' amid claims staff 'got infected after being sprayed with blood' (Daily Mail).

Update #3: The South China University paper on the origins of the Covid-19 coronavirus has been removed by Chinese authorities. But Internet Archive has preserved it .... The possible origins of 2019-nCoV coronavirus

A child of the eighties I remember when merging 2 corporations was a reason for intense political and social discord. Many were denied. Homever laws and time have changed to the point where the a average citizen in a democracy can no longer believe the news. Amalgamation and decentralization have left us powerless. Good luck.

The chances are that if this bug came from a bio-weapons lab, it was probably stock to be developed later. Staff and procedural incompetence most likely led to it's escape.

As long it diverts attention from President Grandpa's buffoonery.

Fortunately we'll always have your commentary to fall back, that is when you're not busy at your dealership.

As per Daily Mail headline, it's hardly a new theory, it was the first theory and it was squashed by the media at the onset.

Like many of his Fox colleagues, Hannity suddenly changed his tune late last month on the virus after President Donald Trump finally pivoted to treating it seriously. The Fox star and unofficial Trump adviser has since taken aim at Democrats and critics who have rightly called out his previous coverage, claiming that all along he was the one warning of the coming disaster while they were the ones turning a blind eye.

But despite Hannity’s perceived confidence in his coronavirus coverage, video and audio recordings do exist. The Fox star spent weeks misleadingly comparing the deadly virus to the seasonal flu while claiming Democrats were “politicizing and actually weaponizing an infectious disease” to “bludgeon” Trump. (Those comments throughout February and March that Democrats were nearly identical to those infamously made by now-former Fox Business host Trish Regan, who, on March 9, with an on-air graphic blaring “Coronavirus Impeachment Scam,” insisted the outbreak was “another attempt to impeach” Trump and “demonize and destroy the president.” Weeks later, Regan was let go by Fox.)

President Trump treated COVID 19 seriously, when he enacted the travel ban in January. That was 3 months ago. Fred Lapides, why are you not reading the memos?

Because Lapides is a liar. Always has been always will be. A pompous one at that.

No, Lapides is not a liar. He tells you the truth as he sees it. I am grateful for him posting his opinion. Not that I agree with him often, but I believe that he expresses a faithful representation of his opinion. And for that I cannot thank him enough. Deep discussion of our situation is important.
