Evidence Reveals That Military Team Collaborated With Lab Where COVID-19 Pandemic Originated

The Chinese regime has said its controversial virology institute had no relationship with the military, but the institute worked with military leaders on a government-sponsored project for almost a decade.

The Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) participated in a project, sponsored by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC)โ€”a regime-funded scientific research institutionโ€”from 2012 to 2018. The project was comprised of a team of five military and civil experts, who conducted research at WIV labs, military labs, and other civil labs leading to โ€œthe discovery of animal pathogens [biological agents that causes disease] in wild animals.โ€

The WIV is located in central Chinaโ€™s Wuhan City, the COVID-19 pandemic ground zero. As an advanced virology institution, the WIV has the only P4 labโ€”the highest biosafety level labโ€”in China and the biggest repository of bat coronaviruses in Asia. The CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, commonly known as novel coronavirus, is โ€œ96 percent identical at the whole-genome level to a bat coronavirus,โ€ Chinese researchers wrote in a research article (pdf) published in February 2020.

In recent months, the Chinese Foreign Affairs Ministry and Shi Zhengli, the WIV virologist nicknamed โ€œBat Womanโ€ for her research on coronaviruses of bat origin, denied there is a connection between the WIV and military, and said that no WIV researchers were infected with COVID-19.

However, according to an investigation conducted by the U.S. State Department, โ€œseveral researchers inside the WIV became sick in autumn 2019, before the first identified case of the outbreak, with symptoms consistent with both COVID-19 and common seasonal illnesses.โ€

โ€œThe WIV has engaged in classified research, including laboratory animal experiments, on behalf of the Chinese military since at least 2017,โ€ states a State Department fact sheet. (See Fact Sheet PDF Below)
