China Demanded Lab-Leak Theory be Omitted From Report
You know who warned us all about this being a lab leaked virus from China, Trump. Trump and Former CIA Director Mike Pompeo. They both said it was highly likely that the virus was leaked from a lab in China. But the MSM refused to believe him and made him out to be a crackpot for it. So now it's more than a year later, Biden has called for a review and they are finding Trump was likely right all along. A WHO expert is now claiming that China tried to get the theory that the virus was lab leaked out of the report entirely. Gee, I wonder why...
"The World Health Organization expert who led a controversial joint probe into the origins of the coronavirus pandemic says in a documentary airing Thursday night on Danish television that Chinese colleagues influenced the presentation of their findings.
“In the beginning, they didn’t want anything about the lab [in the report], because it was impossible, so there was no need to waste time on that,” Ben Embarek said during the interview. “We insisted on including it, because it was part of the whole issue about where the virus originated.
In its report released earlier this year, the WHO-China team said it was “very unlikely” that the virus, officially named SARS-CoV-2, could have accidentally leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology or another facility in the Chinese city where infections were first found. The joint team of researchers said it would not recommend further investigation into the issue.
A discussion of whether to include the lab-leak theory at all lasted until 48 hours before the conclusion of the mission, Ben Embarek told the Danish reporters. In the end, Ben Embarek’s Chinese counterpart eventually agreed to discuss the lab-leak theory in the report “on the condition we didn’t recommend any specific studies to further that hypothesis.”
Embarek gave two possible theories on how it could have been lab-leaked.
“A lab employee infected in the field while collecting samples in a bat cave — such a scenario belongs both as a lab-leak hypothesis and as our first hypothesis of direct infection from bat to human. We’ve seen that hypothesis as a likely hypothesis,” Ben Embarek said."
“It probably means there’s a human error behind such an event, and they’re not very happy to admit that,” Ben Embarek was quoted as saying. “The whole system focuses a lot on being infallible, and everything must be perfect,” he added. “Somebody could also wish to hide something. Who knows?"
This is just more proof that we should have acted on the information Trump gave us while he was in office. But No, instead we gave China a year to clean up after themselves and make sure we never know the truth.
