America Might Have Funded the Chinese Coronavirus

In what reads like a dystopian novel, American taxpayer dollars might be responsible for the global pandemic.

It reads like science fiction, but it is very real. The United States paid for the work that likely created COVID-19. Research which could create a bioweapon—genetically engineering the highest possible infectivity for human cells—was subcontracted to the Chinese. A series of cover-ups means we are unlikely to ever know the truth of why our loved ones died.

There are two origin stories for COVID-19. One is that it emerged naturally, evolving from a bat virus to infect humans. The other is that COVID-19 was genetically created by China’s Wuhan Institute of Virology and escaped into the world. That year you spent at home, those loved ones who died, might have been our own fault. The point is more than assigning guilt; understanding the true origin of the pandemic is critical to preventing it from happening again, as well as a guide to future gain-of-function research.

The first bioscientist to take a serious look at the origins of the virus raised the possibility it had been manipulated by humans, not nature. More recently, science writer Nicholas Wade went on to ask directly “Did people or nature open Pandora’s Box at Wuhan?” in the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists and makes a strong case it was us.

Might?  It is an absolute certainty.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure we paid for that (in more ways than one), thanks to Phony Tony playing the trusting fool for Xi.

I am not so sure that isn't being excessively generous as to his role in all this.

I suppose there is the question of if the Chinese were going to do these experiments anyway and we knew it, attempting to have people inside the tent instead of outside it might be a justification for buying in.

On the other hand if the Chinese were given the original samples/data from UNC before it moved to China it would make it an entirely different situation.

Two researchers from the Wuhan Institute of Virology were on the UNC team:
 
Zhengli-Li Shi: Key Laboratory of Special Pathogens and Biosafety, Wuhan Institute of Virology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Wuhan, China
And:
Xing-Yi Ge: Key Laboratory of Special Pathogens and Biosafety, Wuhan Institute of Virology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Wuhan, China

They were listed as authors in the Letter Published in Nature in 2015: https://www.nature.com/articles/nm.3985

Considering the rampant looting of American intellectual property conducted routinely at American universities and in industry, is there any doubt that the Chinese already had the information?
