They will do it again. Sooner than later.
Not much you can do but live off the land far away.
Best of luck.


"Highly Likely": China's 'Batwoman' Warns Of New COVID Outbreak

Shi Zhengli, the Peter Daszak collaborator whose Wuhan virus database
was altered 48 hours before the Chinese government ordered virus
samples destroyed in the early days of the pandemic, and whose team
was using genetic engineering to create 'chimeric SARS-like viruses to
test on humanized mice' at the lab across town from ground zero for
Covid-19, has warned that it's 'highly likely' that we'll see another
coronavirus outbreak.

"If a coronavirus caused diseases to emerge before, there is a high
chance it will cause future outbreaks," she warned in a recent paper
co-authored with colleagues.

    In this study Shi’s team from the Wuhan Institute of Virology,
evaluated the human spillover risk of 40 coronavirus species and rated
half of them as “highly risky”.

    Of these, six are already known to have caused diseases that
infected humans, while there is evidence that a further three caused
disease or infected other animal species. -SCMP

"It is almost certain that there will be future disease emergence and
it is highly likely a [coronavirus] disease again," the study warned,
after looking at various viral traits - including population, genetic
diversity, host species and any previous history of zoonosis –
diseases that jump from animals to humans.

Shi and pals also identified potential zoonotic hosts for a new Covid
pathogen (of which there are none for Covid-19), including bats,
rodents or possible intermediary hosts such as camels, civets, pigs or
pangolins - which the damage control 'natural origin' types (such as
Daszak) have been desperately trying to locate to exonerate
themselves.
Shi Zhengli (L) and Peter Daszak (R) share a toast...

Shady Shi...

According to the US State Department, "several researchers inside the
WIV became sick in autumn 2019, before the first identified case of
the outbreak, with symptoms consistent with both COVID-19 and common
seasonal illnesses."

"This raises questions about the credibility of WIV senior researcher
Shi Zhengli's public claim that there was "zero infection" among the
WIV's staff and students of SARS-CoV-2 or SARS-related viruses."

    State Department: "The U.S. government does not know exactly
where, when, or how the COVID-19 virus...was transmitted initially to
humans. We haven't determined whether the outbreak began thru contact
w/ infected animals or was the result of an accident at a laboratory
in Wuhan." pic.twitter.com/16zjr9duUS

Zhengli came under fire in 2015 over her controversial
'gain-of-function' research creating chimeric bat viruses designed to
infect humans (but suggesting that an emergent coronavirus that's over
96% similar to a bat coronavirus could have escaped from Zhengli's lab
is a conspiracy theory).

According to a 2021 statement by former UK Conservative leader Iain
Duncan Smith - a member of the Inter-Parliamentary Alliance on China,
the revelations are yet another example of a Chinese coverup.

"China is clearly trying to hide the evidence," he said, adding "It is
vital that there is a thorough investigation into what happened but
China seems to be doing all it can to stop that happening. We don’t
know what was going on in that laboratory. It may well be the case
that they played around with bat coronaviruses and made some kind of
mistake. Unless China opens itself up to scrutiny, the world will
assume they have something to hide."

According to the State Department, "starting in at least 2016 - and
with no indication of a stop prior to the COVID-19 outbreak -- WIV
researchers conducted experiments involving RaTG13, the bat
coronavirus identified by the WIV in January 2020 as its closest
sample to SARS-CoV-2 (96.2% similar).

Further, "The WIV has published a record of conducting
"gain-of-function" research to engineer chimeric viruses. But the WIV
has not been transparent or consistent about its record of studying
viruses most similar to the COVID-19 virus, including "RaTG13," which
it sampled from a cave in Yunnan Province in 2013 after several miners
died of SARS-like illness."

Also of note, "hundreds of pages of information" spanning over 300
studies conducted by WIV were wiped from a database, including some
which discuss passing diseases from animals to humans - which were
published online by the state-run National Natural Science Foundation
of China (NSFC), and are no longer available, according to the Daily
Mail.

Secret military activity

The State Department further noted that "Secrecy and non-disclosure
are standard practice for Beijing," adding that "For many years the
United States has publicly raised concerns about China's past
biological weapons work, which Beijing has neither documented nor
demonstrably eliminated, despite its clear obligations under the
Biological Weapons Convention."

According to the release, "Despite the WIV presenting itself as a
civilian institution, the United States has determined that the WIV
has collaborated on publications and secret projects with China's
military. The WIV has engaged in classified research, including
laboratory animal experiments, on behalf of the Chinese military since
at least 2017."
