From the Abstract:
Using the SARS-CoV reverse genetics system2, we generated and characterized a chimeric virus expressing the spike of bat coronavirus SHC014 in a mouse-adapted SARS-CoV backbone. The results indicate that group 2b viruses encoding the SHC014 spike in a wild-type backbone can efficiently use multiple orthologs of the SARS receptor human angiotensin converting enzyme II (ACE2), replicate efficiently in primary human airway cells and achieve in vitro titers equivalent to epidemic strains of SARS-CoV. Additionally, in vivo experiments demonstrate replication of the chimeric virus in mouse lung with notable pathogenesis. Evaluation of available SARS-based immune-therapeutic and prophylactic modalities revealed poor efficacy; both monoclonal antibody and vaccine approaches failed to neutralize and protect from infection with CoVs using the novel spike protein. On the basis of these findings, we synthetically re-derived an infectious full-length SHC014 recombinant virus and demonstrate robust viral replication both in vitro and in vivo. Our work suggests a potential risk of SARS-CoV re-emergence from viruses currently circulating in bat populations.
SHCO14 is the spike protein that binds readily with the ACE II receptor, the very mechanism SARS-CoV-2 uses to infect humans.
From the description of the
lab created chimera virus, the mechanism of infection and the effects, as well as known resistance to known antivirals (in 2015) are profoundly similar to (if not identical to) SARS-CoV-2.
My conclusion is that at least the early forms of the virus that came to be known as COVID-19 were made in a lab in Chapel Hill, North Carolina in 2014 or 2015.
When the Obama Administration banned Gain of Function research in the US, the samples were shipped to China with two of the research team
for further research. You don't even need a crayon to connect those dots.
The question that does arise is one of whether the 'lab leak' was intentional. The timing certainly makes it suspect: just in time to wreck Trump's shining economy, to provide a basis for ballot counting and casting in unprecedented fashion and numbers (perhaps accounting for the millions of votes that outshone Obama's totals, and have never been seen again in vote totals, (especially in concert with some really hinky episodes surrounding the treatment and results of ballot counts in five states which suspended counting nearly simultaneously with statistically improbable changes in vote percentages by morning).
Despite claims otherwise, no case challenging that election or any part of it was lost on the merits of the case, rather the courts universally dodged the issue by refusing to grant plaintiffs standing in the matter, and refusing to hear the cases. No evidence, no Discovery, no testimony, no facts were ever considered in a court of law.
Note, that when COVID 'broke out' in China, expatriate Chinese workers continued to be flown out of Hubei Province to anywhere in the World--EXCEPT another part of China.
Note, too, that HCQ and Ivermectin were known anti-parasitic drugs, but more had yet to be discovered about their use against COVID (as ionophores for Zinc), and, in the case of Ivermectin, what appears to be remarkable anticancer properties as well.
Therefore, neither had been considered in the initial assessment of the original virus, nor had the actions of Zinc, interfering with viral replication, even though the research done in 2005 had shown zinc to be effective
in vitro and in vivo at stopping replication of the original SARS virus. A later paper on this:
Zn2+ Inhibits Coronavirus and Arterivirus RNA Polymerase Activity In Vitro and Zinc Ionophores Block the Replication of These Viruses in Cell Culturehttps://journals.plos.org/plospathogens/article?id=10.1371/journal.ppat.1001176The leftist press routinely attacked potential (off the shelf) treatments for COVID, attacking not only those who were proponents, but burying any positive results. The push was for shots, not for a cure.
When Trump mentioned Sunlight, the media attacked. Yet, there is this:

Yes, Virginia, there was something to that--but not as the TDS press presented it.
And then there was the whole thing about drinking/mainlining bleach (not!--more TDS!), wrapped around the idea that a common disinfectant just might be efficacious:
But rather, the idea that nebulized H2O2 (Hydrogen Peroxide solution--at 3%) would attack pathogens in the lungs, and leave the viable tissue alone.
Hydrogen Peroxide: Inhaling Disinfectant for Coronavirus Treatment?
https://www.hollywoodlanews.com/hydrogen-peroxide-disinfectant-coronavirus-treatment/But these were ridiculed and never given any consideration, simply because these treatments were made to sound ridiculous through hyperbole and ridicule of the person who mentioned them.
Needless to say the HCQ/Azithromycin/Zinc and IVM/Doxycycline/Zinc protocols were viciously attacked. Just stfu and get your shots. Or lose your job, or your ability to travel, and it was even suggested that those who refused be rounded up and put in concentration camps, because, somehow, they posed an existential threat to the VACCINATED.
Fear is a remarkable tool, and it was used to the utmost. Doctors who disagreed with the narrative were maligned, denied admitting privileges, and basically drummed out of the profession (or at least practice connected with hospitals). Other medical staff were sent packing: 700 at Mayo, 153 at Houston Methodist, 238 in New Jersey, not to mention the thousands of transit, other healthcare, and active duty armed services members who were discharged because they refused shots which turned out to be of questionable efficacy, and increasingly, appear to have had a relatively high percentage of individuals injured by the shots.
But this is getting off topic, the question is one of what lengths those involved will go to to preserve a failing and largely debunked narrative of a zoonotic virus that occurred naturally and just happened to travel the world from a seafood market in the midst of hysteria that conveniently enabled the 2020 election to be stolen.
Now, I'll put my Crayolas away and quit connecting dots, but the people who made bank and benefited are not our friends. The Devil himself may do the odd good seeming deeds for optics, but if you dig deep the rank smell of corruption will rise quickly.
And those 'news' outlets and shows that led the way pimping panic and decrying anything contrary to the narrative? Well those which haven't fallen by the wayside are still in short, snyde segments punctuated by pharmaceutical ads...
