BUSTED! EcoHealth Alliance President & Employees Emails Show One Covid 'Conspiracy' Was REAL.


"Conspiracy Theory" About EcoHealth and a Lancet Article on COVID-19 Now A Proven Fact.

Ecohealth Alliance Orchestrated Key Scientists’ Statement on “Natural Origin” of SARS-CoV-2

466 pages of new email correspondence were released under FOI and obtained by the U.S. Right to Know group which exposed the letter in the Lancet was organised and authored by EcoHealth Alliance.

[Page 253 in that release first mentions the Lancet article.] 

EcoHealth Alliance, a non-profit group that has received millions of dollars of U.S. taxpayer funding to genetically manipulatecoronaviruses with scientists at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

[THIS WAS FAUCI's 'GO-TO' GROUP TO CONTINUE THE 'GAIN-OF-FUNCTION' STUDIES THAT HAD BANNED IN AMERICA BY THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION. THIS IS WHO HE HANDED THAT OFF TO.] 

The emails obtained via public records requests show that EcoHealth Alliance President Peter Daszak drafted the Lancet statement, and that he intended it to “not be identifiable as coming from any one organization or person” but rather to be seen as “simply a letter from leading scientists”. Daszak wrote that he wanted “to avoid the appearance of a political statement”.         

Daszak is now leading The Lancet’s COVID-19 Commission charged with getting to the bottom of SARS-CoV-2’s origin — a role for which he is clearly too conflicted to perform in an unbiased manner.

The scientists’ letter appeared in The Lancet on February 18, just one week after the World Health Organization announced that the disease caused by the novel coronavirus would be named COVID-19. 

The 27 authors “strongly condemn[ed] conspiracy theories suggesting that COVID-19 does not have a natural origin,” and reported that scientists from multiple countries “overwhelmingly conclude that this coronavirus originated in wildlife.”

[BUT NO GENETIC STUDY CAN FIND IT IN NATURE! 
In recent months, researchers in various countries have suggested that cases may have gone unnoticed long before December 2019, based on analysis of wastewater or blood samples.

Scientists agree that the disease has an animal origin.
"The big question is what led it to jump into humans," Etienne Simon-Loriere told AFP. Simon-Loriere said it was not yet possible to completely rule out the idea that the virus escaped accidentally...
Others have voiced concern that the agency may have allowed China to dictate the terms of an international investigation into the origins of the virus.]

The Lancet letter included no scientific references to refute a lab-origin theory of the virus.

Flinders’ University Professor Nikolai Petrovsk stated, “Science is all about truth or transparency, and unfortunately, we don’t see any of that reflected in these emails. 
”Here we have a situation with a serious pandemic, in fact WHO at that time were refusing to call it a pandemic, and we have a group of scientists, based at a particular institute who are implicated at least in very similar gain of function research to what may have created a virus like this, seeking to really, unfortunately, deceive the readers of these journals. 
“That this is a letter that has not come from an individual or a single institute, but the emails clearly indicate the desire to cover that up and say this is coming from a group of scientists around the world when that was not in fact the case. 
“So, on scientific principles, that really doesn’t stand up.”


Several of the authors of that Lancet statement also have direct ties to the EcoHealth Alliance that were not disclosed as conflicts of interest. 

Rita Colwell and James Hughes, are members of the Board of Directors of EcoHealth Alliance, while William Karesh is the group's Executive Vice President for Health and Policy, and Hume Field, from University of Queensland in Australia, is Science and Policy advisor. Hume is a veterinarian." 

One 'scientist' who signed, Linda Saif, asked via email whether it would be useful “to add just one or 2 statements in support of why nCOV is not a lab generated virus and is naturally occuring? Seems critical to scientifically refute such claims!”

Daszak responded, “I think we should probably stick to a broad statement.”

[THAT CAN BE FOUND ON PAGE 266 OF THE FOIA RELEASE. 
Feb 6, 2020 10:23:12 PM EST] 

Growing calls to investigate the Wuhan Institute of Virology as a potential source of SARS-CoV-2 have led to increased scrutiny of EcoHealth Alliance. The emails show how members of EcoHealth Alliance played an early role in framing questions about possible lab origin of SARS-CoV-2 as “crackpot theories that need to be addressed,” as Daszak told The Guardian.

Although the phrase “EcoHealth Alliance” appeared only once in The Lancet statement, in association with co-author Daszak, several other co-authors also have direct ties to the group that were not disclosed as conflicts of interest. Rita Colwell and James Hughes are members of the Board of Directors of EcoHealth Alliance, William Karesh is the group’s Executive Vice President for Health and Policy, and Hume Field is Science and Policy Advisor.

The statement’s authors also claimed that the “rapid, open, and transparent sharing of data on this outbreak is now being threatened by rumours and misinformation around its origins.” Today, however, little is known about the origins of SARS-CoV-2, and investigations into its origins by the World Health Organization and The Lancet COVID-19 commission have been shrouded in secrecy and mired by conflicts of interests. Peter Daszak, Rita Colwell, and The Lancet Editor Richard Horton did not provide comments in response to our requests for this story.

Peng Zhou's research while affiliated with Wuhan Institute Of Virology and other places 



The Washington Post wrote that US embassy scientists and diplomats in Beijing visited the laboratory and met with Shi.

They then sent warnings back to Washington about inadequate safety practices and management as it conducted research on coronaviruses from bats.

According to the Post, the cable “warns that the lab’s work on bat coronaviruses and their potential human transmission represented a risk of a new SARS-like pandemic”.  

China hasn’t exactly been transparent about the source of the virus and hasn’t allowed international experts to visit ground zero and start investigations into the origin of the pandemic. 

Finding out what really happened and how the virus jumped to humans is critical for managing the illness, future treatment and vaccine research, and preventive measures that could block the same species from infecting humans with a different pathogen. Having a clear picture of the origin of COVID-19 isn’t about assigning blame to China or a different country. Although China attempted to change the origin story a few times so far, suggesting that the pandemic might not have started in Wuhan.

The WHO disclosed recently that the investigation would have two phases. During the first stage, the actual WHO team won’t be present on the ground in Wuhan and will only review the data that Chinese researchers provide. 

The WHO mission plan reveals that nearly 1,200 specimens were collected from the market, which had 653 sellers who commercialized all sorts of animals. Of the 336 animals sampled, none tested positive for the virus. But 8% of the environmental swabs that included drains and sewage carried the virus. The report also notes that a survey in spring showed that 14% of Wuhan cats tested positive for the virus. Meanwhile, the only animal known to pass the coronavirus to humans is the mink. 

"Dr. Peter Chumakov from the Engelhardt Institute of Molecular Biology, Russian Academy of Sciences, said, "In China, scientists at the Wuhan Laboratory have been actively involved in the development of various coronavirus variants for over ten years."
Chumakov added the scientists were studying the coronavirus' pathogenicity and not deliberately creating a manmade killer.

The professor says it is possible the Wuhan scientists were aiming to make a HIV vaccine and created ‘variants of the virus… without malicious intent’."



NOBEL PRIZE-WINNING SCIENTIST WHO DISCOVERED HIV SAYS CORONAVIRUS WAS CREATED IN LABORATORY  
Jun 4, 2020
Interviewed on the CNews channel in France, Montagnier asserted that the virus had been designed by molecular biologists. Stating that it contains genetic elements of HIV, he insisted its characteristics could not have arisen naturally.

Montagnier suggested that possibly the goal had been to make an AIDS vaccine. Labeling the virus as “a professional job…a very meticulous job,” he described its genome as being a “clockwork of sequences.”
“There’s a part which is obviously the classic virus, and there’s another mainly coming from the bat, but that part has added sequences, particularly from HIV – the AIDS virus,” he said.


October 2019 antibody tests from Italy are more perplexing. They indicate the virus was present in the [Italian] community much earlier, which means it either left China many months before we thought or it actually did originate somewhere else.
But not everyone is convinced that the data paints an accurate picture, with some researchers calling for more analysis to provide better answers."


MEANWHILE, CHINA KEEPS CASTING BLAME ON OTHER NATIONS FOR THE ORIGIN: 

BEIJING, Nov. 22 (Xinhua) -- As COVID-19 disrupts the lives of tens of millions across the world, one question remains elusive: where did the virus come from?

Apart from Italy, there have also been other reports about the virus being discovered elsewhere earlier in 2019.

Spanish virologists discovered traces of the novel coronavirus in a sample of Barcelona waste water collected in March 2019, nine months prior to the virus outbreak in China.

And in Brazil, a study detected the coronavirus in human sewage in Santa Catalina, Brazil, in samples collected in Nov. 2019."

[Xinhua News Agency or New China News Agency is the official state-run press agency of the People's Republic of China. The CCP tells them what to write and they obey.]


 NOT A "WORLD-KILLING VIRUS  

Around 80% of people with COVID-19 recover without specialist treatment. 
These people may experience mild, flu-like symptoms. 
However, 1 in 6 people may experience severe symptoms, such as trouble breathing.   

Over at Vox, Kelsey Piper concluded that
gain-of-function research in contagious viruses is probably too dangerous to continue:      
"The cost-benefit analysis for pathogens that might kill the people exposed or a handful of others is vastly different from the cost-benefit analysis for pathogens that could cause a pandemic — but our current procedures don’t really account for that. As a result, allowing gain-of-function research means running unacceptable risks with millions of lives. It’s high time to rethink that."     

Gain-of-function research is when researchers take an existing virus or pathogen and make it more potentially dangerous — either more contagious, more likely to kill a human host, or both.   

NEWSWEEK ONCE DARED REPORT THAT..."The National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases, the organization led by Dr. Fauci, funded scientists at the Wuhan Institute of Virology and other institutions for work on gain-of-function research on bat corona viruses" ...[AFTER they were banned here.] 


U.S. intelligence, after originally asserting that the coronavirus had occurred naturally, conceded last month that the pandemic may have originated in a leak from the Wuhan lab. (At this point most scientists say it's possible—but not likely—that the pandemic virus was engineered or manipulated.)"    

Thomas Inglesby, director of the Center for Health Security at Johns Hopkins, declared that “laboratory systems are not infallible, and even in the greatest laboratories of the world, there are mistakes.”      

In May 2018, with leaders in the White House and Congress who had never dealt with a major epidemic,
Inglesby and his colleagues at Johns Hopkins University hosted an exercise in Washington DC called 'Clade X'.      

It featured a respiratory virus that was engineered in a laboratory.
One early lesson of this simulation was that travel bans didn’t stop the virus from gaining ground. Infections spread rapidly below the radar because half of the people infected showed few or no symptoms.

[THAT'S SIMPLY CRAP LOGIC! YOU HAVE MILLIONS INFECTED IN CHINA BUT YOU WELCOME TRAVELERS FROM CHINA?
NO, YOU BLOCK ENTRANCE AND THAT WAY NEITHER ASYMPTOMATIC NOR SYMPTOMATIC PEOPLE COME IN TO INFECT!
DID THEY GET THEIR MEDICAL CREDENTIALS FROM INSIDE CEREAL BOXES?]

 Medical supplies ran short, and hospitals were overwhelmed. Federal and state leaders issued conflicting messages. More than 20 months passed before a vaccine was available."  
[WHAT A FEAT OF MAGIC PREDICTIONS, YES?]
Jeremy Konyndyk, a senior fellow at the Center for Global Development in Washington DC, disagrees [with the morons].  
"We have a strong end game once there is a vaccine, and we have a strong opening game if countries contain an outbreak when case numbers are low,” he says. But insufficient attention is devoted to harnessing and coordinating enough health workers and biomedical resources to efficiently test people, treat them, find their contacts and quarantine them. This is precisely the conundrum that the United States finds itself in right now."

REMEMBER THE FIASCO THAT ENSUED WHILE CDC DEVELOPED THEIR VERY OWN TEST, REFUSING TO USE ALREADY AVAILABLE TESTS, THEN FINDING CV-19 CONTAMINATION IN THEIR OWN BIG LAB IN ATLANTA, MAKING THEIR TEST RESULTS FALSE-POSITIVE?

Sky News Australia presented "COVID-19: Ground Zero" – an investigation into what caused the killer coronavirus and how China managed to bury the truth for so long. 
South China Morning Post news editor Josephine Ma told Sky News her government covered up more than 200 cases of coronavirus in 2019, delaying global warnings and allowing the spread of the virus to leak into other countries.


SEE IT AS YOU CHOOSE
THE TRUTH IS THERE IN THE EMAILS, THE INVESTIGATIONS, THE STATEMENTS FROM INSIDE CHINA. 

YOU CAN EVEN BELIEVE IT CAME FROM SPACE

In the emails FOIA release, I found an email from one 'Ted Steele' on page 350 both interesting and a bit whacko. 

"We are the only scientific analysts and pundits who have got it right from the Get-go: our explanation is consistent with all the genetic, immunologic, epidemiologic, geophysical, astrophysical and astrobiological data and observations. 

– the principles and key turning point analyses were largely assembled earlier ( 40 years ago) by Sir Fred Hoyle and Professor N Chandra Wickramasinghe, and now updated here by Professor Chandra Wickramasinghe ( in his 81 st year) and his active colleagues for the COVID-19 pandemic ( see URLs to recent comprehensive reviews at end of list below) . Their 1979 book “Diseases from Space” is obligatory reading, a scientific masterpiece written for the general intelligent reader – both Fred and Chandra should have been awarded the Nobel years ago, but human frailty, clay feet, jealously, envy and cowardice made sure that did not happen."   
 Yours sincerely, 
 Ted Steele

WHAT DID TED, et al, SUGGEST AS THE CAUSE OF THE WUHAN OUTBREAK TO THE LANCET THAT WAS REJECTED 3 TIMES?
THIS:


Comment on the Origin of the 2019 Novel Coronavirus

AuthorsEdward J. Steele, N. Chandra Wickramasinghe, Jiangwen Qu, Robert Temple, Gensuke Tokoro, Reginald M. Gorczynski

"Analysis of all genetic, epidemiological and geophysical and astrophysical data suggest the alternate hypothesis that nCoV-2019 arrived via a meteorite, presumed carbonaceous meteorite, that struck North East China on October 11 2019. 

 We then assume the viral debris and particles then made land fall in the Wuhan and related regions about a month to six weeks later resulting in first cases of the viral pneumonia caused by nCoV-2019 emerging in Wuhan regions late November 2019-early December 2019."

That's right, Ted, I mean Edward J. 
Atta boy!
Origin mystery solved!
Yaaay! 

THE ENTIRE BUSINESS OF "COVID, COVID!" HAS BEEN A WORSE SCAM THAN '60 MINUTES' REVEALED THE SWINE FLU WAS. 

ECOHEALTH AND FAUCI, ANYONE CONNECTED TO THE SCAM, SHOULD BE INDICTED.

    "The plans now are to wait for Rita to give a Yes or No, then include a reference to the NASEM letter when that comes out, then circulate to some other eminent scientists. I’ve come up with an initial list below.
    Please suggest names of your colleagues that you think might also be willing to support this (I’m sure some of these people are too busy right now to respond):

    Once we’ve got a good group of around 20 well-known people, I will then circulate this via social media and email, with a link to a webserver for others in the greater science community (and interested public) to sign on to this statement. I will then present this to the ISID meeting in KL, Malaysia in 2 weeks and I think we’ll get a big impact from that community and it should then take off.

    Please note that this statement will not have EcoHealth Alliance logo on it and will not be identifiable as coming
    from any one organization or person, the idea is to have this as a community supporting our colleagues.
    Cheers,

  2. THE W.H.O. admitted there is NO 100% MATCH IN NATURE, NONE.

    "The COVID-19 virus has a genome identity of 96% to a bat SARS-like coronavirus and 86%-92% to a pangolin SARS-like coronavirus..."

    Only SARS-CoV-2 contains a potential cleavage site for furin proteases.

    The sequence confirms earlier screening results that a loop at the 3′ end of the RNA appears identical to one in the Avian Infectious Bronchitis virus, which infects turkeys and chickens.

    There are also sequence similarities with Bovine Coronavirus, and with a coronavirus that causes hepatitis in mice. But there are also sequences unlike any other known coronavirus, meaning finding the source of SARS may not be straightforward."

  4. DARPA AND PENTAGON/U.S. DEPT. OF DEFENSE TIES TO WUHAN LAB
    The Pentagon’s Defense Advanced Research Project Agency (DARPA), began spending millions on such research in 2018 and some of those Pentagon-funded studies were conducted at known U.S. military bioweapons labs bordering China and resulted in the discovery of dozens of new coronavirus strains as recently as last April. Furthermore, the ties of the Pentagon’s main bio-defense lab to a virology institute in Wuhan, China — where the current outbreak is believed to have begun — have been unreported in English language media thus far.
    Though most English-language media outlets to date have not examined such a possibility, there is considerable supporting evidence that deserves to be examined. For instance, not only was the U.S. military, including its controversial research arm — the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), recently funding studies in and near China that discovered new, mutant coronaviruses originating from bats, but the Pentagon also became recently concerned about the potential use of bats as bio-weapons.
    Chinese Internet is claiming the virus is part of a U.S. conspiracy to spread germ weapons. That could indicate China is preparing propaganda outlets to counter future charges the new virus escaped from one of Wuhan’s civilian or defense research laboratories.

  5. One study conducted in Southern China in 2018 resulted in the discovery of 89 new “novel bat coronavirus” strains that use the same receptor as the coronavirus known as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS). That study was jointly funded by the Chinese government’s Ministry of Science and Technology, USAID — an organization long alleged to be a front for U.S. intelligence, and the U.S. National Institute of Health — which has collaborated with both the CIA and the Pentagon on infectious disease and bio-weapons research.

  6. Another U.S. government-funded study that discovered still more new strains of “novel bat coronavirus” was published just last year. Titled “Discovery and Characterization of Novel Bat Coronavirus Lineages from Kazakhstan,” focused on “the bat fauna of central Asia, which link China to eastern Europe” and the novel bat coronavirus lineages discovered during the study were found to be “closely related to bat coronaviruses from China, France, Spain, and South Africa, suggesting that co-circulation of coronaviruses is common in multiple bat species with overlapping geographical distributions.” In other words, the coronaviruses discovered in this study were identified in bat populations that migrate between China and Kazakhstan, among other countries, and is closely related to bat coronaviruses in several countries, including China.

    The study was entirely funded by the U.S. Department of Defense, specifically the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) as part of a project investigating coronaviruses similar to MERS, such as the aforementioned 2018 study. Yet, beyond the funding of this 2019 study, the institutions involved in conducting this study are also worth noting given their own close ties to the U.S. military and government.

    The study’s authors are affiliated with either the Kazakhstan-based Research Institute for Biological Safety Problems and/or Duke University.

    1. Duke University’s involvement with this study is also interesting given that Duke is a key partner of DARPA’s Pandemic Prevention Platform (P3) program, which officially aims “to dramatically accelerate discovery, integration, pre-clinical testing, and manufacturing of medical countermeasures against infectious diseases.” The first step of the Duke/DARPA program involves the discovery of potentially threatening viruses and “develop[ing] methods to support viral propagation, so that virus can be used for downstream studies.”

      Duke University is also jointly partnered with China’s Wuhan University, which is based in the city where the current coronavirus outbreak began, which resulted in the opening of the China-based Duke Kunshan University (DKU) in 2018. Notably, China’s Wuhan University — in addition to its partnership with Duke — also includes a multi-lab Institute of Medical Virology that has worked closely with the US Army Medical Research Institute for Infectious Diseases since the 1980s, according to its website. As previously noted, the USAMRIID facility in the U.S. was shut down last July for failures to abide by biosafety and proper waste disposal procedures, but was allowed to partially resume some experiments late last November.

  7. It was first sequenced in the UK in late September. It has 17 mutations that may affect the shape of the virus, including the outer spike protein, according to Nick Loman at the University of Birmingham in the UK, who is part of a team that has been monitoring and sequencing new variants. Many of these mutations have been found before in other viruses, but to have so many in a single virus is unusual.
    To put this in context, however, the coronavirus is constantly mutating and there are lots of variants with one or more mutations. In fact, by July, there were already at least 12,000 “mutants”. The number will be higher now, though many mutations are rare and the viruses carrying them often die out.

  8. The U.S. has claimed that it has not pursued offensive biological weapons since 1969 and this has been further supported by the U.S.’ ratification of the Biological Weapons Convention (BWC), which went into effect in 1975. However, there is extensive evidence that the U.S. has continued to covertly research and develop such weapons in the years since, much of it conducted abroad and outsourced to private companies, yet still funded by the U.S. military. Several investigators, including Dilyana Gaytandzhieva, have documented how the U.S. produces deadly viruses, bacteria and other toxins at facilities outside of the U.S. — many of them in Eastern Europe, Africa and South Asia — in clear violation of the BWC.

    Aside from the military’s own research, the controversial neoconservative think tank, the now defunct Project for a New American Century (PNAC), openly promoted the use of a race-specific genetically modified bioweapon as a “politically useful tool.” In what is arguably the think tank’s most controversial document, titled “Rebuilding America’s Defenses,” there are a few passages that openly discuss the utility of bioweapons, including the following sentences:

    …combat likely will take place in new dimensions: in space, “cyber-space,” and perhaps the world of microbes…advanced forms of biological warfare that can “target” specific genotypes may transform biological warfare from the realm of terror to a politically useful tool.
    Though numerous members of PNAC were prominent in the George W. Bush administration, many of its more controversial members have again risen to political prominence in the Trump administration.

    Several years after “Rebuilding America’s Defenses” was published, the U.S. Air Force published a document entitled “Biotechnology: Genetically Engineered Pathogens"

  9. China has also accused the U.S. military of harvesting DNA from Chinese citizens with ill intentions, such as when 200,000 Chinese farmers were used in 12 genetic experiments without informed consent. Those experiments had been conducted by Harvard researchers as part of a U.S. government-funded project.
