National Institute’s of Health Inspector General reported today that the agency did not monitor adequately grants to the New York-based EcoHealth Alliance of CEO Peter Daszak who received millions in NIH grants from 2015 to 2019. Daszak gave Wuhan Institute of Virology nearly $1 million in grants to work on harmless bat coronaviruses, turning them into the most deadly, most contagious viruses ever seen. Dr. Anthony Fauci, former Chief of Allergy and Infections disease, approved millions in grants to Daszak. Daszak thought he used the cash wisely to fund Shi Zhengli’s bioweapons lab where she performed “gain-of-function” research on bat cornaviruses. Calling the lack of oversight “major failures in past NIH oversight of high-risk research on enhanced potential pandemic pathogens,” Rutgers University molecular biologists Richard Enright acknowledged the lack of oversight.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, 82, denied at least three times under oath before Sen. Rand Paul’s (R-Ky.) Health, Education and Pension Committee, that he ever approved “gain of function research,” telling Paul, “you’re a liar,” and “you don’t know what you’re talking about.” Ever since former President Donald Trump, 76, said April. 30, 2020 that the deadly novel coronavirus leaked from a Wuhan lab, Democrats and the media disputed his claims. Fauci worked night-and-day during the 2020 presidential campaign to discredit Trump’s handling of the Covid-19 pandemic, giving countless interviews all disparaging Trump. Fauci calls himself Nanpartisan, a dedicated public servant but, in fact, he worked as Democrat political hack in 2020. Instead of deferring the media’s endless criticisms of Trump, Fauci played right along, answering questions all designed to show the public Trump was not fit for office.

Fauci worked closely with Daszak and World Health Organization Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus to promote the zoonotic theory that the deadly novel coronavirus jumped from bats to an animal host, then to humans at a wildlife market in Wuhan. How ironic that Chinese Foreign Minister Zhao Lijian said March 13, 2020, only two days after Tedros declared a global pandemic, that the deadly novel coronavirus was made in America and exported by the U.S. military to Wuhan, China. Only two weeks before, Daszak and 27 other scientists, wrote to the British medical journal Lancet, that the virus jumped to humans from infected animals. Daszak called any other explanation pure conspiracy theory. Daszak, Tedros and Fauci were all committed to promoting the zoonotic theory because they all knew they promoted “gain-of-function” experiments in Wuhan.

Fauci, Tedros and Daszak understood the implications for a deadly bio-engineered virus leaking from a lab in China and infecting the world. Fauci knew the history with 2003 SARS Cov-1 outbreak that infected 8,000 people worldwide, killing another 800. So for the SARS CoV-2 virus to infect nearly 675 million worldwide with 6.5 milllion deaths, there could be zero genetic similarity to the 2003 SARS CoV-1 virus. Yet Fauci, Daszak and Tedros continued to push for the zoonotic theory, calling the lab-leak hypothesis pure conspiracy theory. Fauci, Daszak and Tedros were all mum when it came to Zhao Linjian’s accusation that the virus was made in America. Fauci, especially, wanted no part of Sen. Rand Paul’s (R-Ky.) accusation that he and the NIH funded Shi Zhengli’s bioweapons experiments. U.S. microbiologist admitted to injecting harmless bat coronaviruses with Angiotensin [ACE 2] in Zhengli’s lab.

University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, microbiologist Ralph Baric admitted to working in Zhengli’s lab injecting coronaviruses with Angiotensin II [ACE 2], a powerful blood pressure medication with known molecular properties similar to SARS CoV-2 mechanism of infection in human cells. Yet all this time, with the NIH under Fauci, supporting Zhengli’s coronavirus experiments, Fauci screamed at Paul under oath that he was a “liar” that “didn’t know what he was talking about.” Turns out that Fauci wanted no part of the blame for supporting dangerous “gain-of-function” experiments on harmless bat coronaviruses. “The entire picture starts to look extremely disconcerting,” mathematical biologist Alex Washburne said. When 82-year-old President Joe Biden tasked 53-year-old Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines with finding the origin of the virus in 2021, she said it couldn’t be done.

Inspector General’s report on poor oversight at the NIH suggests, at the very least, Peter Daszak’s EcoHealth alliance funded “gain-of-function” experiments in Zhegnli’s bioweapons lab. Zhengli’s lab was visited by Peoples Liberation Army [PLA] chief virology Chen Wei in 2020. Chinese President Xi Jinping wanted to know about the deadly coronavirus outbreak in Wuhan. Xi told the Chinese Communist Party Central Committee Feb. 14, 2020, less than a month before Tedros declared a global pandemic March 11, 20202, that he ordered China’s microbiology labs to tighten up security. Xi wasn’t talking about Fauci’s zoonotic theory. He was talking about a lab leak. Once Trump said the virus leaked from Zhengli’s lab, the U.S. and global press had to discredit the source. Only now, with the IG’s report, has the media admitted that Trump told the truth about the origin of the virus.
