Clues, Origin of Covid

I recently watched a video published by The Hill, titled “Top Fauci Aide David Morens Caught DELETING Emails, Accused of LYING To Congress”, subtitle, “Daszak Stripped of Funding”. Peter Daszak has been the president of EcoHealth Alliance: 

“EcoHealth Alliance is an US-based non-governmental organization with a stated mission of protecting people, animals, and the environment from emerging infectious diseases. The nonprofit focuses on research aimed at preventing pandemics and promoting conservation in hotspot regions worldwide.” Wikipedia.

I have suspected EcoHealth of working with the federal government on Bio Defense projects for a long time, based on the fact that millions of dollars have been given to EcoHealth from the Department of Defense and the State Department, considerably more than what has been reported that was given to EcoHealth by Dr. Fauci and NIH. It’s understandable to me that our government carries out this type of research. According to a former Secretary of Homeland Security, Tom Ridge, other countries such as China, Russia, N. Korea and Iran, carry out what most of us would call bio-warfare research, including the U.S. 

“Thomas Joseph Ridge is an American politician and author who served in the George W. Bush administration as the Assistant to the President for Homeland Security from 2001 to 2003 and as the United States Secretary of Homeland Security from 2003 to 2005. He was the first person to hold either office.” Wikipedia. He is also a former governor of PA.

So I don’t think it’s nefarious if Peter Daszak is one of the people that our government works with concerning “Bio-Defense” research. If we don’t keep up with this type of research, how will we know what other countries are capable of, and how do we protect ourselves from attack? Maybe it is a necessary evil. 

The video on The Hill’s web site goes into emails between Dr. Fauci and others that indicate an effort for secrecy by using private emails instead of government email accounts, protecting them from Freedom of Information requests (FOIA). Which Fauci and others had already run into problems when some of their emails were made public after FOIA requests were honored, putting them in an awkward position. If I remember correctly, some of the earlier emails showed Dr. Fauci and two other scientists discussing the possibility that the virus had been manipulated in a lab. These discussions took place in late Jan. and early Feb. 2020, at the very beginning of the pandemic. Within a few weeks, the official voice on the matter said that it’s a conspiracy theory to say that the virus may have been manipulated in a lab, maybe in the Wuhan lab in China. What was at first considered a possibility, then officially became a conspiracy theory, is now considered a very real possibility. So, it appears their reaction to those earlier emails being released to the public, was to use private email accounts that aren’t subject to FOIA requests, thereby helping to ensure their email discussions remain secret. As details emerge, the question of did the covid virus come from a lab may be closer to being answered.
