The Covid Conspiracy Behind the Main Conspiracy, By Chris Knight (Florida)
The story about what went on during the Covid years is slowly coming out. We have seen a reversal of the origins hypotheses, with the natural origin story being replaced by the lab leak one, but there has not been a follow-through due to the US being involved in funding that got the whole dreadful mess off the ground. Robert Kennedy has been good at exposing this.
Now there is news that at least is relevant to what went on in the UK. The US intelligence sources told the British, during the Covid plandemic's early stages, that it was highly likely that the virus had escaped from a Chinese virology lab. This exchange occurred in January 2021 through the Five Eyes intelligence-sharing system. Mike Pompeo, the former US secretary of state, presented evidence that supported the lab leak theory to representatives from the UK, Canada, New Zealand and Australia. The UK did not accept the evidence, having pressure put on them by UK scientists who had a conflict of interest with their China connections. As stated: "We saw several pieces of information and thought that they were, frankly, gobsmacking," said one former official who worked on the intelligence that informed Mr Pompeo's report. "They obviously pointed to the high likelihood that this was indeed a lab leak."
In one document, which has since been released by the State Department under Freedom of Information laws, US officials warned of "consistent stonewalling" by China after the virus was first discovered and accused local officials of "gross corruption and ineptitude."
The claim is made that the political controversy over President Trump supporting the lab leak hypothesis led to the issue not being pursued. That to me seems to be bogus, as nothing prevented the issue being taken up by other nations, and also after Trump had his election stolen. Even more has gone on here.
"The US shared "gobsmacking" evidence with Britain at the height of the Covid pandemic suggesting a "high likelihood" that the virus had leaked from a Chinese lab, The Telegraph can reveal.
were convened to discuss the possibility of a lab leak as the US warned that China had covered up research on coronaviruses and military activity at a laboratory in Wuhan.
In a previously unreported phone call that month, Mike Pompeo, the former US secretary of state, presented evidence that supported the lab leak theory to Dominic Raab, then the Foreign Secretary, and representatives from Canada, New Zealand and Australia.
Speaking to The Telegraph, two Trump administration officials accused Mr Raab and the UK Government of ignoring the lab leak theory because of resistance from government scientists who supported the explanation that the virus had jumped between animals and humans.
Mr Pompeo presented a summary of classified American intelligence reports collected in the early days of the pandemic and compiled by the State Department. The intelligence reports themselves are understood to have been shared separately with the UK via the Five Eyes network between October and December 2020.
"We saw several pieces of information and thought that they were, frankly, gobsmacking," said one former official who worked on the intelligence that informed Mr Pompeo's report. "They obviously pointed to the high likelihood that this was indeed a lab leak."
In one document, which has since been released by the State Department under Freedom of Information laws, US officials warned of "consistent stonewalling" by China after the virus was first discovered and accused local officials of "gross corruption and ineptitude".
The research revealed for the first time that Chinese military officials had worked with the Wuhan Institute of Virology in the years leading up to the pandemic, and that some researchers at the lab had become ill shortly before the virus was first recorded nearby.
It also showed that Chinese scientists had carried out "gain of function" research at the institute, which has since become a key piece of evidence for the lab leak theory.
The theory has become a divisive topic among scientists and government officials in the years following the pandemic and has prompted two investigations by the World Health Organisation, which China has been accused of obstructing.
British government ministers including Boris Johnson initially dismissed the possibility that Covid had been created by scientists, arguing in June 2021 that "the advice that we have had is that it doesn't look as though this particular disease of zoonotic origin came from a lab".
Two former officials claimed the UK had ignored the evidence presented by the US because ministers saw the lab leak claims as a "radioactive American political issue" fuelled by public disagreement between government scientists and Donald Trump.
"Once the thing became fundamentally political, the ability to pursue it internationally really just collapsed because no one else was interested in touching it," said one of the officials. "I think [Five Eyes] were kind of annoyed by the way the issue had become treated in US politics."
Both separately named Sir Jeremy Farrar, a member of the Government's Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies as one of the leading opponents of the lab leak theory within the British government.
A majority of scientific experts have long said that they believe an animal to human interaction was the most likely cause of the first infection.
However, some Government figures, including Michael Gove, have since said that they believe the virus was "man-made".
In November, Mr Gove told the Covid Inquiry that there was a "significant body of judgment that believes that the virus itself was man-made – and that presents its own set of challenges".
