Daily Mail: Infectious diseases expert and former presidential Covid adviser Dr
Deborah Birx told The Mail that coronavirus ‘came out of the box ready to
infect’ when it emerged in the Chinese city of Wuhan in December 2020. The
adviser said most viruses take months or years to become highly infectious to
humans. But, Dr Birx said, Covid ‘was already more infectious than flu when it
first arrived’. She said that meant Covid was either an ‘abnormal thing of
nature’ or that Chinese scientists were ‘working on coronavirus vaccines’ and
became infected… She accused China of initially covering up how infectious
Covid was. Birx said Covid’s infectiousness was consistent with a virus which
had been experimented on in a lab (Daily Mail).
Epoch Times: While some news outlets and so-called fact-checking websites labeled the lab leak hypothesis as a conspiracy theory, top U.S. officials conceded later in 2021 that it’s within the realm of possibility. A report released by the 17-agency Intelligence Community in 2021 shows that some federal officials believe the virus emerged from the Wuhan laboratory, according to the White House in a May 26 news release. Chinese officials, meanwhile, have claimed the virus was first found in December 2019, emerging from a wet market in Wuhan about 10 miles from the lab’s location. It was later revealed by the National Institutes of Health that it provided funding to researchers who were carrying out research on bat coronaviruses… In March 2021, former Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Robert Redfield told CNN that he believes the virus emerged from the Wuhan facility (Epoch Times).
