Increasingly the bat soup hypothesis of the natural origin of Covid-19 has been disassembled, and the revelation that both the FBI and US Department of Energy now support the lab leak hypothesis, in particular, that the virus escaped from the Wuhan Institute of Virology, is now being discussed in the mainstream. But was it an accident, or deliberate? If deliberate, it was therefore a bioweapon attack. Dr. Li-Meng Yan is a virologist who was working at a World Health Organization reference lab in Hong Kong, believes that it was intentional. “This virus, SARS‑CoV‑2, actually is not from nature. I work with the top Coronavirus virologists in the world. So together, with my experience, I can tell you [that] this was created in a lab. This is from that template owned by the Chinese military. And also, it is spread to the world to make such damage.” “It was not an accident,” said Dr. Li-Meng Yan. “Maybe for people who don’t have this kind of biosafety lab 3 or 4 experience on coronavirus — maybe it’s easy for them to accept [that this was an] accident or lab leak. However, I’m the scientist working in the research lab using coronavirus, and I can tell you, based on the protocol and also other surveillance systems, it would be impossible for the lab leak [to] accidentally happen in the research lab and cause the Wuhan outbreak and also the pandemic. … It was from China’s lab, and we need to pursue the truth of [the] origin. And we need to keep going on.”
If she is right, it was the first strike in China’s war against the West.
