This past week information was reported at the Independent which claimed mice were used in research in Wuhan China related to the COVID pandemic. This was information previously reported by The Gateway Pundit (TGP) in May. Our initial reporting was in April 2020.
This past week information was released by the Intercept about the origins of COVID that was a shocker to most of the mainstream media:
NEWLY RELEASED DOCUMENTS provide details of U.S.-funded research on several types of coronaviruses at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China. The Intercept has obtained more than 900 pages of documents detailing the work of EcoHealth Alliance, a U.S.-based health organization that used federal money to fund bat coronavirus research at the Chinese laboratory. The trove of documents includes two previously unpublished grant proposals that were funded by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, as well as project updates relating to EcoHealth Alliance’s research, which has been scrutinized amid increased interest in the origins of the pandemic.
The documents were released in connection with ongoing Freedom of Information Act litigation by The Intercept against the National Institutes of Health. The Intercept is making the full documents available to the public.
“This is a road map to the high-risk research that could have led to the current pandemic,” said Gary Ruskin, executive director of U.S. Right To Know, a group that has been investigating the origins of Covid-19.
One of the grants, titled “Understanding the Risk of Bat Coronavirus Emergence,” outlines an ambitious effort led by EcoHealth Alliance President Peter Daszak to screen thousands of bat samples for novel coronaviruses. The research also involved screening people who work with live animals. The documents contain several critical details about the research in Wuhan, including the fact that key experimental work with humanized mice was conducted at a biosafety level 3 lab at Wuhan University Center for Animal Experiment — and not at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, as was previously assumed. The documents raise additional questions about the theory that the pandemic may have begun in a lab accident, an idea that Daszak has aggressively dismissed.
However, some of this information is not new to the TGP. In May of this year, questions were raised about Wuhan University by Lawrence Sellin where he asked if this was the epicenter of COVID:
Is Wuhan University’s Animal Laboratory the Origin of the COVID-19 Pandemic?
But this wasn’t our only reporting on this matter. We actually have reported numerous articles on activities in Wuhan related to the China coronavirus going back to April of 2020.
