[Eddie Holmes] So they were doing covert military GOF work but had an online database of the viruses they were using [2021-04-14 15:45:27] [Robert Garry] 1. *Secret WIV Links to Military Research:* Despite the WIV presenting itself as a civilian institution, 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.

But I guess we're in our full right to do the same, correct? Because, you know, we're the US, dammit! [2021-04-14 15:46:51] [Robert Garry] ~T~WIV also published super-secret scientific papers with the CCP army - in the science journals. [2021-04-14 15:46:55] [Kristian Andersen] Here's what we got: "Rubio, the vice chairman of the committee, said an accidental lab escape was "plausible" and pointed to some reasons why he thought so, including that "researchers at the Wuhan Institute of Virology have demonstrated from their publication record that they were skilled at techniques in which they genetically modified bat coronaviruses," as well as that viruses such as SARS have escaped from Chinese labs in the past and that U.S. diplomats warned about subpar biosafety standards at the Wuhan lab in 2018".

Berenson and the antivaxxers also whopping it up about J&J. Mark on your calendar April 14, 2021 as the highpoint for both :clown_face: colonies. [2021-04-14 16:21:53] [Robert Garry] But - AB is selling some "books." That is if you consider 39 pages a book. Bullshit, outrageousness, contrarianism sells...

[2021-04-14 16:25:57] [Robert Garry] Oh for sure - He gonna ride that all the way to the bank thou. The ppl reading his Fox News blessed pamphlets don't also read the Atlantic. But, speaking of the freaking Atlantic where is Ed Yong when you actually need him? [2021-04-14 16:30:21]
