CORONAVIRUS – A STORY OF BETRAYAL.

CORONAVIRUS – A STORY OF BETRAYAL.

We all know about the Coronavirus — or do we? What exactly happened? Why is the press still not covering the full extent of the story? Can you really trust the U.S. government, the medical establishment, or the media?

The Coronavirus pandemic is not just a public health crisis — it is, for many, a story of betrayal.

US government funded and created Coronavirus.

We are now hopefully all convinced that the Coronavirus originated from the Wuhan Institute in China. President Trump famously referred to it as the “China virus.” However, the U.S. government is no less complicit than China. To be fair, we should call it the “Chimerica virus.” This document is based on a Congressional oversight report released in December of 2024:

The following organizations, organizational hierarchy, and key individuals are involved in the story below.

WHO STARTED CORONAVIRUS RESEARCH AND WHY IT WAS STARTED?

1. Dr. Ralph Baric & Dr.Fauci

Let us begin with Ralph Baric. He is a U.S.-based coronavirus virologist whose work is central to understanding how SARS-like viruses can be engineered. He:

• Developed and refined reverse genetics systems for coronaviruses—techniques that allow scientists to assemble and modify viral genomes.
• Created and tested chimeric SARS-like viruses to study infectivity, host range, and pandemic potential.
• Conducted research that became foundational to modern coronavirus studies worldwide.
• Serves as a professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC), an institution that has received biodefense contracts from NIAID, which was headed for decades by Dr. Anthony Fauci.

In short: Dr. Baric helped develop the tools that enable advanced manipulation of coronaviruses. His research was funded through grants from NIAID, which was led for decades by Dr. Anthony Fauci. Therefore, Dr. Fauci was well aware of ongoing coronavirus research.

2. But why such research has started?

In short: SARS-CoV-1 (2002–2003) outbreak triggered major U.S. biodefense and emerging-virus funding

• NIAID began funding:

• Coronavirus molecular biology
• Host-range and pathogenesis studies
• Vaccine platform research

• Baric became one of the leading U.S. recipients of those grants because of his expertise
• His first sustained federal funding specifically for SARS-related coronavirus research began after the 2002–2003 SARS epidemic

By the mid-2000s, his lab was already publishing foundational coronavirus papers funded by NIH/NIAID. Research was scientific and open.

3. Shi Zhengli, Wuhan Institute of Virology, GOF

Introducing Shi Zhengli (Nickname in media: “Bat Woman” (for bat coronavirus work)), Senior virologist / lead coronavirus researcher at Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIM). She:

• Led bat coronavirus discovery and characterization programs
• Co-authored multiple papers on SARS-like coronaviruses

Collaborated with Ralph Baric, 2013-2015.

• Pre-2013:
  Baric was already a leading U.S. coronavirus researcher, developing reverse-genetics systems after the 2003 SARS outbreak.
• ~2013–2014:
  Scientific contact and collaboration began as part of broader international efforts to study bat SARS-like coronaviruses.
• 2015:
  They co-authored a landmark paper in Nature Medicine on a chimeric bat coronavirus capable of infecting human cells

One important definition you’ve probably heard is “Gain-of-Function” (GoF) research. This refers to the deliberate alteration of a pathogen—such as a virus—to give it new or enhanced capabilities, such as increased transmissibility, infectivity, host range, or virulence. GoF research is regulated under biosafety and biosecurity laws due to the risks involved. Dr. Ralph Baric and Dr. Shi Zhengli engaged in work that either constituted GoF research or came very close to it.

In short: Dr. Baric and Dr. Shi Zhengli collaborated scientifically and developed methods for enabling coronaviruses to infect human cells—activities that arguably fall under Gain-of-Function (GoF) research.

4. EcoHealth Alliance, Dr. Peter Daszak

EcoHealth Alliance is a U.S.-based nonprofit research organization founded to study how diseases jump from animals to humans (zoonotic spillover) and to help prevent pandemics.  This focus became especially prominent after SARS (2002-2003), Ebola, etc:

Long-time President: Peter Daszak

EcoHealth did not run major laboratories itself. Instead, it functioned as an intermediary:

U.S. funding agencies (NIH / NIAID)

        ↓

    EcoHealth Alliance

             ↓

        Field researchers & labs in hotspots (China, SE Asia, Africa, etc.)

Why the U.S. government funded EcoHealth?

U.S. agencies (especially NIH/NIAID) saw EcoHealth as useful because it could:

• Work in places U.S. labs could not easily operate
• Collect virus samples before outbreaks
• Provide early-warning data for pandemic preparedness

This aligned with post-SARS policy thinking: “Find dangerous viruses in nature before they find us.”

5. What is project DEFUSE? DARPA reject it as dangerous

DEFUSE was a 2018 research proposal submitted by EcoHealth Alliance(and Dr.Peter Daszak) to Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA).

DEFUSE proposed to:

1. Find high-risk bat coronaviruses in nature (primarily in China)
2. Experimentally assess their ability to infect humans
3. Modify certain viruses (e.g., altering spike proteins / testing furin cleavage sites) to:

• Predict which viruses could become dangerous

4. Develop countermeasures (vaccines, antibodies) before outbreaks occur

The underlying logic was:

“If we can identify and weaken dangerous viruses in advance, we can prevent future pandemics.”

DARPA rejected DEFUSE as it:

• Involved high-risk gain-of-function–type experiments
• Proposed insufficient biosafety and risk-management controls
• Did not adequately address dual-use / misuse risks

So DARPA said the risks outweighed the benefits and rejected the proposal!!!

6. How EcoHealth could receive NIH/NIAID funding even after DARPA rejected DEFUSE?

NIH funded different (though related) work under a different mission, definitions, and review process. NIH/NIAID funded separate grants to EcoHealth Alliance that were classified by NIH as non–gain-of-function under NIH’s narrower definitions. NIH concluded its funded work did not trigger its highest-risk review so it proceeded.

EcoHealth allocated grant to Wuhan Institute of Virology because:

1) Access to the viruses

• Many SARS-like bat coronaviruses are found in southern China.
• Wuhan Institute of Virology had:

• Long-running bat sampling programs
• Field access U.S. labs did not have

• EcoHealth positioned itself as a bridge to that access.

2) Existing collaboration

• EcoHealth had pre-existing partnerships with WIV scientists, including Shi Zhengli. Those collaborations predated COVID-19 and were presented as routine international

In summary:

As you can see, this is a complex story involving multiple actors. While NIAID and EcoHealth may have formally followed the rules, it is evident that Dr. Fauci, Dr. Daszak, and NIAID leadership were aware that DARPA had rejected the DEFUSE proposal for safety reasons, and that multiple scientists had raised serious concerns about the risks involved, and yet they proceeded with research in China!

Was it excessive ambition, a severe lack of judgment, a clear failure of oversight — or even treason? But US government funded Coronavirus!
