China, the World Health Organization and the U.S. National Institutes of Health have dimissed the theory that the virus causing the global pandemic that has killed more than 2 million people and devastated economies worldwide escaped from the Wuhan, China, lab funded by the United States.

But there's no disputing the fact, as Newsweek reported in April 2020, that NIH executive Dr. Anthony Fauci promoted a highly controversial type of research involving the manipulation of viruses to explore their potential for infecting humans. And it's known that more than 200 scientists pressured the Obama administration in 2014 to temporarily halt U.S. funding for that research because of the risk of a manipulated virus accidentally escaping a lab and igniting a pandemic. Nevertheless, under Fauci's direction, the dangerous virus engineering resumed in 2017 and continued until April 2020.

Insane WSJ scoop: About 90 people were hospitalized with Covid-19-like symptoms in central China in the two months before the disease was first identified in Wuhan in late 2019, according to World Health Organization investigators.

Possible Early Covid-19 Cases in China Emerge During WHO Mission

BEIJING—About 90 people were hospitalized with Covid-19-like symptoms in central China in the two months before the disease was first identified in Wuhan in late 2019, according to World Health Organization investigators, who said they pressed Beijing to allow further testing to determine whether the new virus was spreading earlier than previously known.

Chinese authorities performed antibody tests on about two-thirds of those patients in the past few months, according to the investigators, and said they found no trace of infection by the virus. But members of the WHO team probing the pandemic’s origins said any antibodies could have subsided to undetectable levels during the delay. ...

I'll repeat this story for those that haven't heard it.
My parents were in India in Fall of 2019. My Mom called me in early November, asked if I had heard anything about a virus in Wuhan, China....because Indians studying there were dropping out and returning out of fear.

She said the media was telling stories of bodies piling up in hospitals, etc.  I said "Nah. I am sure the India media is just being melodramatic. I mean, if there was something, the WHO would surely tell us!"

By December, the Indian intelligence services were warning that there was a problem. WHO still had not hinted at anything. And our CDC was blind to it all.

Late summer and early fall 2019 (September/October) - Satellite pictures showed a large spike in auto traffic around Wuhan hospitals indicating some sort of significant health-related event; https://abcnews.go.com/International/satellite-data-suggests-coronavirus-hit-china-earlier-researchers/story?id=71123270

October 7-24, 2019 - No cellphone activity detected in a high security area of the Wuhan Institute of Virology; this suggests the possibility of a contamination event that triggered a shutdown for decontamination; this may or may not be relevant to the outbreak in Wuhan, but it is possible that this was the origin of the outbreak; https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/national-security/report-says-cellphone-data-suggests-october-shutdown-wuhan-lab-experts-n1202716

At this point I think WHO, like the rest of the world, was blind-sided when news of the Wuhan outbreak was leaked to the world on December 31, 2019. So of course WHO and the CDC said nothing until then. But then in the months of January and February WHO was China's running dog, faithfully parroting China's lie that there was no evidence of human-human transmission and condemning travel restrictions.

Notice how since Trump left the rat media has tried to steer the narrative back to the virus occurring in a bat cave or a wet market again? China OWNS the US media.

BTW how does USA Today get to "fact check" a WND article?
