Celebrity Scientists: Peter Daszak

Peter Daszak

  • President of EcoHealth Alliance, which has received $99.8 million in US taxpayers’ money, mostly from US defense, homeland security and intelligence agencies.  David R. Franz, an EcoHealth Alliance advisor, was in the thick of the FBI’s anthrax investigation.  All three suspect scientists in the anthrax mailings worked under Franz at Fort Detrick/USAMRIID (US Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases).
  • Estimated salary of US$400 000 per year from EcoHealth alone. Then add on the generous bat/WIV/research gigs (91% paid by you). The thing about Big-Not-for-Profit Orgs is the the Profit is gobbled up in wages by the top-gobblers.
  • Involved in the promotion of Remdesivir through his connection with WIV (which patented its use to treat Covid on Jan 21, 2019!).  Despite being largely ineffectual, it was the only antiviral drug approved by the FDA, netting its backers billions.  It's unclear to what extent, if any, Daszak financially benefited from this windfall.
  • Long term collaborator with Lipkin and WIV scientists - specializes in coronavirus Gain-of-Function research. If you deduce that Covid escaped from an Wuhan lab, it follows that Daszak probably worked on that virus pre-escape. (note: Daszak couldn't genetically engineer his way out of wet-paper-bag - that work was done by Baric, Shi, & Linfa Wang - but he was instrumental in drumming up funding for these experiments.)
  • Limelight addict. All over the media like a rash since the outbreak of Covid.  Tireless Twitter activist. Key contacts at THE Guardian, which platformed his anti-lab-leak propaganda.
  • WHO/CCP approved investigator of Covid origin, which announced a lab-exit was extremely unlikely.  Claimed that the origin-tracing was starting to point towards the border (outside China) and they had closed the lid on a lab accident.
  • Praises CCP as open and transparent .
  • Celebrity virus/environmental evangelist.  Has been playing-up the threat of zoonotic crossover events all his career - still says this is not the big one.

In a nutshell: Virus Hunter and Batman (and Batwoman) are financially invested in:

  • The rise of the CPP
  • The limelight
  • Virus events - especially Zoonotic ones

They are all sciences in a sense, but let’s check out the science science one - their field of expertise. Is the whole fear-dome of zoonotic transfer events a real threat? Or just a beat-up by Celebrity Scientists with financial interests?
