Video from inside the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China shows bats in captivity there, as well as a lab official’s admission that the Chinese had no experience with biosecurity when they erected the institute in 2004.
Part of a report from Australia’s Sky News reporter Sharri Markson, the video also supports the reporting of Nicholas Wade. The institute’s Shi Zhengli, a virologist known as the Bat Lady, he wrote in May, created a coronavirus that could infect human beings.
Wade’s is just one recent report that provides strong evidence that SARS-Cov-2, which swept across the world in early 2020, leaked from a lab at the institute.
The truth about the lab is one of “greatest cover-ups the world has ever seen,” Markson concludes.
Nothing to See Here
The video, obtained from private researchers, opens with the admission from Song Donglin, deputy director of the level 4 biosecurity lab in Wuhan, that the Chinese were clueless about safety when they built the lab:
Back in 2004 when we began work on this lab, China had no prior experience in designing or constructing BSL 4 laboratories. There was no prior experience in using or managing autoclave sterilizers nor life-support systems for personnel.
Markson’s video also shows that the institute housed more than 15,000 bat virus samples. Yet China wiped the institute’s virus databases from the Internet on September 12, 2019. That was two months before three lab workers landed in the hospital with virus-like symptoms, and three months before a lab worker’s wife died.
Zhengli said China erased the database because hackers tried to break into it. Her pal, EcoHealth chief Peter Daszak, supported that story in Markson’s video. But Daczak also backs Zhengli’s research. He channeled U.S. subsidies from Anthony Fauci’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases to the institute, and was part of the World Health Organization’s investigatory team that inspected the institute after the pandemic began. He is also part of the Lancet team that is probing the outbreak.
Worse still, the video shows Daczak’s admission that WHO’s investigators never asked to see the database before they exonerated China and said the lab sprung from bats naturally.
Did Daczak Lie About The Lab?
Markson also nails Daczak for disputing a report that bats were at the lab in a now-deleted tweet in December 2020:
No BATS were “sent to Wuhan lab for genetic analyses of viruses collected in the field. That’s not how this science works. We collect bat samples, send them to the lab. We RELEASE bats where we catch them.
Dacsak continued later: “This is a widely circulated conspiracy theory. … [Labs] do not have live or dead bats in them.
Taiwan News reported the tweets in February, along with the claims that Chinese scientists admitted capturing bats for “further study back at the lab.”
The video depicts those captured bats in a cage at the lab, a researcher feeding a worm to a bat, and Chinese scientists capturing bats.
But the video also shows mice at the lab. Those images further back Wade’s report that the Bat Lady had injected a souped-up virus into humanized mouse cells, which Daczak discussed openly:
On December 9, 2019, before the outbreak of the pandemic became generally known, Daszak gave an interview in which he talked in glowing terms of how researchers at the Wuhan Institute of Virology had been reprogramming the spike protein and generating chimeric coronaviruses capable of infecting humanized mice. …
One can only imagine Daszak’s reaction when he heard of the outbreak … a few days later. He would have known better than anyone the Wuhan Institute’s goal of making bat coronaviruses infectious to humans, as well as the weaknesses in the institute’s defense against their own researchers becoming infected.
Markson closes the video with a denunciation of Daszak and Fauci. They must be removed from any role in the investigation of how the pandemic started, she avers, because of their obvious conflicts of interest.
