A WHO expert team arrives at the Wuhan Institute of Virus Research to investigate the source of the virus, under close surveillance by the Chinese Communist Party.
The WHO expert team investigated the source of the outbreak for only half a month and came up with preliminary findings that are almost consistent with the Chinese Communist Party’s rhetoric. The Epoch Times interviewed Dr. Xiaoxu Lin, a former virology researcher at the U.S. Army Research Institute, who revealed six major problems with the investigation report.
The WHO panel’s findings are a show for the Chinese Communist Party
In the afternoon of Feb. 9, a joint WHO-CCP expert panel held a press conference, and the WHO expert panel’s preliminary findings were almost identical to the official propaganda of the Chinese Communist Party. For example, it is “very unlikely” that the virus was leaked from the laboratory, and it is “very likely” that the virus was infected through frozen Food.
Dr. Lin Xiaoxu told the Epoch Times that the WHO experts’ visit to Wuhan to investigate the source of the virus was “actually a political show. These experts should have known that they were not there to do real research, but to play along with the Chinese Communist Party’s show.
Lin Xiaoxu pointed out the problems of the WHO expert group in this investigation from many aspects, and their series of statements and practices are all in line with the Chinese Communist government’s efforts to shirk responsibility.
- The virus could not have been leaked from the Wuhan virus laboratory?
The WHO expert group concluded that the virus could not have been leaked from the Wuhan virus laboratory.
Lin Xiaoxu said the WHO expert panel reached the above conclusion based on discussions the panel had with Wuhan experts, asking them about their virus research and visiting the Wuhan P4 lab to understand the lab’s environment.
“This is the situation of the Wuhan Virus Institute, which was overhauled a year later, and this is what you can say to rule out the possibility of a possible leak in the first place? And in those days you can learn whether they had actually leaked it? This even common sense knows.”
“China has had a number of virus leaks before, in Anhui, and in Beijing there was a SARS virus leak.” Lin Xiaoxu said, “leaked, of course the laboratory to rectify, strengthen the safety of laboratory operations and so on, you now see that it is safe, does not mean that there was no leakage in the past.”
“Such simple common sense, these so-called experts will not understand it, these are arguably nakedly defending the Chinese Communist Party in the rhetoric, not the practice of experts.”
- frozen food chain transmission?
The WHO expert group said it was “very likely” that the virus was transmitted through the frozen food chain, and claimed it would be studied.
Lin Xiaoxu said that this is the WHO expert group cooperated with the Chinese Communist Party to dump the blame, providing the Chinese Communist Party with the excuse that the virus was imported from overseas.
He said that the Chinese government only started to find reasons and excuses for the spread of cold chain food transportation after the end of spring and summer last year, so the Chinese government basically did not emphasize this aspect from January to May last year, when they had not yet found this excuse, “so we cannot say that the Wuhan outbreak was transmitted to Wuhan through the cold chain.
Lin Xiaoxu pointed out that “in fact the virus spread up in Wuhan, this investigation WHO did not get any substantial progress, from what was said in a simple press conference at the moment, we can see that the Chinese Communist Party did not give them any samples to do their own independent research.”
Zhang Wenhong, an infectious disease expert in Shanghai, China, also previously made clear that the likelihood of infection through cold-chain food is similar to the probability of an air crash, and that none of the confirmed cases were due to cold-chain food.
- Is the virus transmitted by bats?
The WHO expert panel said it is unlikely that local transmission from bats to humans would occur, but that other intermediate hosts would be needed to introduce humans.
Lin Xiaoxu pointed out that the WHO expert panel was saying the same thing as the Chinese Communist Party, which had been emphasizing early last year that it ruled out the possibility of bats as intermediate hosts because the bat collection also did not come from Wuhan, which also does not have a large number of bats.
Normal words would be to wonder if the local outbreak in Wuhan was a laboratory leak or if there were other animal hosts,” he said. Of course for any outbreak, especially if the virus itself can infect other animals, it’s important to investigate the animal hosts.
“But the Chinese Communist Party has been withholding any animal samples from the public since early last year, even though the South China Seafood Market has done a small amount of testing on animal samples.
“From the point of view of public Epidemic prevention, it should have been made public, but the Chinese Communist Party has been concealing it, and has not made any effort to investigate the testing of animal samples.
“How this matter can be said to take a year before the World health Organization steps in to conduct an investigation is also absurd in itself.”
The WHO panel also said at the press conference that it was not only for bats in China to be sampled, but also for bats in other countries, adding that Wuhan does not have many bats.
Lin Xiaoxu said that by saying that bats from other countries should be collected, the WHO is cooperating with the Chinese Communist Party to shirk its responsibility. He said, “How many other places and how many different kinds of bats are there? You can check endlessly, check a lifetime may not be clear, this is actually the WHO to help the Chinese Communist Party to dump the blame.
“From the so-called virology of the animal, tracing the animal host, tracing the source of the virus, this can be a protracted affair.”
- when did the virus start spreading?
The WHO expert panel all said that Wuhan did have virus transmission in December 2019, but it is not clear how the virus entered the South China seafood market.
Chinese expert Liang Wannian also said the team reviewed and analyzed samples from the second half of 2019 and found that Wuhan did not have a certain scale of new coronavirus at that Time.
Lin Xiaoxu pointed out that they all stressed that before December 2019, Wuhan City has a new coronavirus (CCP virus, Wuhan pneumonia) in the population transmission, so how many people well. This word instead is here and there, indicating that they do know that there is already a certain number of people in Wuhan in the second half of last year 2019, perhaps not constitute a scale.
“But a certain number of people have been infected with the new coronavirus, why is this data not released to the public? How do you know there wouldn’t be enough population transmission, and at what point were these people diagnosed for them? What’s going on with these patient samples, can you share these samples, can you sequence these viruses to see what the earliest circulating viruses were like in the first place to see if there is a common source of outbreak?”
Lin Xiaoxu pointed out that instead of going after these people’s samples for investigation and research to analyze the situation of transmission at that time, the WHO expert group said that it would run to other countries to collect bat samples, isn’t that a ridiculous thing?
Lin Xiaoxu pointed out that the WHO expert group should trace when the earliest cases started, and when people were already infected with the CCP virus in the second half of 2019, or was it the summer of 2019?
- Panel members are CCP stakeholders
One of the experts on the panel is Pete Daszak, president of the EcoHealth Alliance.
According to Lin, the U.S. government was not involved in the investigation, but Daszak, an American expert, was, but that person is a problem in his own right. Because he himself is a serious stakeholder, he has a long history of cooperation with the Wuhan Institute of Virus Research, how can such a person be allowed to do the investigation of the source of the virus, this itself is a big problem, seriously affect the so-called independence of the investigation team.
“The Chinese Communist Party says this is a kind of cooperation, not any independent investigation at all, so also stop using the independent investigation as a pretext.”
6.0 Research similar virus WHO experts not pursued
Shi Zhengli, a researcher and deputy director of the Wuhan Virus Laboratory, has been working on coronavirus research for a long time after the 2003 SARS (also known as Sars virus, SARS) outbreak, and collected bat guano and other samples from an abandoned mine in Yunnan province and brought them back to Wuhan for research, eventually finding that SARS disease may have been transmitted to humans by one of the bats in the cave.
Earlier this year, the U.S. Department of State announced three major suspicions at the Wuhan Institute of Virus: 1. Several researchers within the Wuhan Institute of Virus (WIV) became ill in the fall of 2019 with symptoms consistent with COVID-19 and common seasonal diseases; 2. Since at least 2016, researchers at the Wuhan Institute of Virus have conducted research involving RaTG13 (Note: Coronavirus type B is a genus of virus that infects bats that SARS-associated coronavirus) and showed no signs of stopping before the COVID-19 outbreak; 3. Covert military activities at the Wuhan Virus Institute.
Lin Xiaoxu pointed out that the Wuhan Institute of Virus Shi Zhengli team of all possible to do these acquired functional virus research, the World Health Organization simply did not pursue this matter.
Lin Xiaoxu said that the WHO panel’s series of statements and practices are all in line with the Chinese government’s efforts to shirk its responsibilities.
The Chinese Communist Party has always been good at muddying the waters
Lin also said the Chinese Communist Party is particularly good at muddying the waters, such as blaming the U.S. military, Italy and other countries for the outbreak, and suggesting that there are multiple outbreaks of the disease.
Lin Xiaoxu said that now the Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin also claimed that the U.S. should let the WHO conduct research on the source of the disease in the U.S., which is simply a way to stir up muddy water and dump the pot.
Lin Xiaoxu said the epidemic first broke out in Wuhan, and the Chinese authorities knew that the virus could be passed from person to person, “but they covered it up for weeks without telling the public, and even millions of people (in Wuhan) ran around the world, you are really the culprit of the epidemic, a global spread of the epidemic, you do not take the responsibility, who takes the responsibility? So all these things are dumping.”
