The Covid-19 coronavirus, which has killed 7 million people worldwide, was created as part of a biodefense program, and the birthplace of the deadly virus was likely a laboratory at the University of North Carolina. Biologist Robert Redfield, who led the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) from 2018 to 2021, said this on Dana Parish’s podcast.
“I believe the virus was deliberately created as part of a biodefense program.” – saying Robert Redfield.
When asked by the podcast host what the role of the United States was, the former head of government centers responded that it was significant, unlike China.
“China is not responsible for the laboratory research or creation of the virus. They did not follow international health standards when they realized they had a problem. “People like me from the CDC were given access to the laboratory within 48 hours, as stipulated in the bilateral agreement.” – noted Robert Redfield.
He explained that the United States funded research and more.
“The research was funded by both the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Department of State, USAID and the Department of Defense. These four agencies helped finance it. Secondly, the scientific inspiration behind this research is a guy called Ralph Baric from the University of North Carolina and was heavily involved in this research. “I think it probably helped create some of the original viral lines, but I can’t prove it.” – said Robert Redfield.
“So China’s version that the virus was born in the United States could be true?” the podcast host asked.
“There is a very high probability that the virus was created in a laboratory at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.” – added the former head of the CDC.
The day before, in November, the Dutch Minister of Health Agema Flower spoke at a parliamentary hearing and admitted that Covid-19 was a “military operation” as his department was fulfilling its obligations to NATO with its coronavirus policy during the pandemic. This is reported by the American publication Slay, which cites an article by a famous Dutch doctor. The svan Viin in X.
“This was a military operation,” the Minister of Health reports to NATO and NCTV. — wrote the doctor.
As reported EADailyin 2021, president of the American public organization EcoHealth Alliance Peter Daszak He left the UN commission to investigate the causes of Covid-19. The scandal broke because his organization conducted large-scale research on bats and coronaviruses in China and spent federal money, including on joint projects with scientists in Wuhan.
Since 2002, the American non-governmental organization has obtained 30 grants and 39 sub-grants from US government agencies worth $111 million, according to data from the USAspending.gov portal. EcoHealth Alliance received more than $50 million of this amount in 2008-2020 for projects related to bats and coronaviruses.
In a 2019 interview, Peter Daszak boasted that the coronavirus could be manipulated quite easily in the lab, and they are doing so with Ralph Barik of the University of North Carolina.
The American news organization The Intercept later obtained documents about how the New York-based EcoHealth Alliance carried out large-scale coronavirus research in China with public money.
The project was not just limited to research, but also involved creating an artificial virus and testing it for human infections.
“Our project aims to understand the risk of human infection with the bat SARS coronavirus. We will generate chimeric SARSr-CoV and evaluate their ability to infect hACE2, bACE2, cACE2 Vero, Hela cells, human primary airway epithelial cells, and possibly CaCo cells. “We will then experimentally infect mice to evaluate pathogenicity and clinical signs.” – EcoHealth Alliance plans were cited in the documents.
They came true. Already in November 2015, a study titled “A Cluster of Circulating SARS-Like Bat Coronaviruses Represents a Threat to Humanity” appeared on the website of the US National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). In it, scientists from the University of North Carolina, Harvard Medical School, the National Center for Toxicological Research, Nutrition and Drug Administration, the Swiss Institute of Microbiology and the Laboratory of Special Pathogens and Biosafety of the Institute of Virology of Wuhan reported the creation of a chimeric virus, from the surface proteins of SHC014 and the SARS virus, adapted to grow in a mouse and mimic a human disease.
“The emergence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) and Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) highlights the threat of interspecies transmission leading to disease outbreaks in humans. Here we explore the potential of a SARS-like virus, SHC014-CoV, currently circulating in Chinese horseshoe bat populations. “Using the SARS-CoV reverse genetics system, we created and characterized a chimeric virus.” – he said in the introduction to the investigation.
What scientists have obtained is evidence that the chimeric virus can infect human cells. The studies say that the mice were sacrificed and that all experiments with them were carried out directly at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
How dangerous the virus turned out to be can be judged by what scientists have discovered: there were no prophylactic or immunotherapeutic agents in the world to protect against infection.
“Evaluation of available SARS-based immunotherapeutic and prophylactic methods showed low efficacy: they were unable to neutralize or protect against CoV infection using the new spike protein.” – the researchers reported.
