‘The awful thing about the whole Covid catastrophe is that it appears to have been entirely man-made, in all its aspects

It now looks overwhelmingly likely that the mutation was the result of some botched experiment in a Chinese lab.’

‘Some scientists were clearly splicing bits of virus together like the witches in Macbeth – eye of bat and toe of frog – and oops,

the frisky little critter jumped out of the test tube and started replicating all over the world.’

Mr Johnson writes that the UK has fought this anthropogenic disease,

‘with an ever-growing panoply of restrictions that were literally medieval in their savagery and their consequences.’

‘In locking down our societies, we showed that we had barely progressed since early modern England,

when Shakespeare and his colleagues were repeatedly compelled by law to shutter the Globe Theatre, and when they had rules on human contact – no more than six to a funeral, for instance

that eerily prefigured some of the arcane stuff we came up with, week after week, in the Cabinet Room.’

Ministers were studying intelligence about an accident at Wuhan’s Institute of Virology,

where scientists were carrying out high-risk experiments to manipulate coronaviruses –

sampled from bats in caves nearly 1,000 miles away – to make them more transmissible.

At the time, the silence from the British political and scientific establishment was deafening.

Rather than risk accusing Beijing of culpability for one of the most devastating pandemics in history,

the official line remained that the virus had been passed on at an animal market in Wuhan,

despite DNA analysis of Covid-19 tracing it to bats found only in distant caves.

Sceptics conflated the thesis with the notion that China had deliberately released the virus as the by-product of a weapons programme.

COVID-19 ORIGIN: COVID-19 most likely emerged from a laboratory in Wuhan, China.

The virus possesses a biological characteristic that is not found in nature.

Data shows that all COVID-19 cases stem from a single introduction into humans.

Wuhan is home to China’s foremost SARS research lab, which has a history of conducting gain-of-function research at inadequate biosafety levels.

Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) researchers were sick with a COVID-like virus in the fall of 2019, months before COVID-19 was discovered at the wet market.

By nearly all measures of science, if there was evidence of a natural origin it would have already surfaced.

PROXIMAL ORIGIN PUBLICATION

“The Proximal Origin of SARS-CoV-2” publication —

which was used repeatedly by public health officials and the media to discredit the lab leak theory —

was prompted by Dr. Fauci to push the preferred narrative that COVID-19 originated in nature.

GAIN-OF-FUNCTION RESEARCH

A lab-related incident involving gain-of-function research is most likely the origin of COVID-19.

Current government mechanisms for overseeing this dangerous gain-of-function research are incomplete, severely convoluted, and lack global applicability.

ECOHEALTH ALLIANCE INC. (ECOHEALTH)

EcoHealth — under the leadership of Dr. Peter Daszak —

used U.S. taxpayer dollars to facilitate dangerous gain-of-function research in Wuhan, China.

New evidence also shows that the Department of Justice (DOJ) has opened an investigation into EcoHealth’s pandemic-era activities.

NIH FAILURES

NIH’s procedures for funding and overseeing potentially dangerous research are deficient, unreliable, and pose a serious threat to both public health and national security.

SARS-CoV-2, the Virus that Causes COVID-19, Likely Emerged Because of a Laboratory or Research Related Accident.

Four years after the onset of the worst pandemic in 100 years, the weight of the evidence increasingly supports the lab leak hypothesis.

Since the Select Subcommittee commenced its work in February 2023,

more and more senior intelligence officials, politicians, science editors, and scientists increasingly have endorsed the hypothesis that COVID-19 emerged as the result of a laboratory or research related accident.
