Thank-you Lancet Statement
If you're tracing back to the origin of the Covid Cover-up, you wind up with two documents: The Lancet Statement and Proximal Origin of SARS-CoV-2. They are kinda special for me coz they were my entry point into seriously investigating the origin of Covid.
Dan started a thread on Formosahut about nCov on Jan 24 - we began noticing/recording some anomalies. I mentioned this with an Aus scientist I was on good terms with.
The reaction was bristling defensive - that took me aback - slightly. I sent a Feb 23 story from the Taipei Times on a scientists' symposium raising the possibility of aan engineered virus lab accident.
The email back was:
The experts don't believe in conspiracy (my bold)
link to the recently publishedThe Lancet Statement.
I read it - wasgob-smackedly gob-smacked to see- 27 world-leading experts saying scientists from a CCP-run bio-defense/weapons lab were open and transparent.
The language, was weirdly over-the-top - condemning conspiracy theorists - raving about unity/solidarity. With who? Totalitarianism?
Yeah - no.
Having lived in Taiwan most of my adult adult-life, right next-door to China, I tried to conveyconvey, as an expert, the little known fact amongst scientists that China is run by a totalitarian regime called the CCPCCP. - whoWho are open and transparent about not being open and transparenttransparent. - meaningMeaning the 27-experts were making a fundamental mistake in their reasoning.
Begging the question: Why?
The scientist/friendresponse responded withwas an animated propaganda cartoon praising China's transparency/response/lockdown mentality - ridiculing the doubterUS (literally made by the CCP - disturbinglydisturbingly, now that i check, platformed/plugged by the ABCABC. - which, moreMore than 2 yearyears later - hasthere's notstill no evidence of the ABC having done aan storyinvestigative investigatingpiece on the origin of the biggest story of our lifetimes)lifetimes. andWhat does that mean?)
later i got an article about a 5-G protest.
Regardless,Then bybanned from talking about Covid. The End.
By this point,point through simple deduction,though, i knew this new virus was a lab-leak. That was exciting.
I also knew that the science community was aggressively trying to cover it up.up, attack curious people.

I checked a paper that the Lancet Statement cited in support of its premise - it was called Proximal Origin.
In it, ithere discoveredwere further evidenceclues of fundamental non-truths atthat supported the basis ofconclusion this Nature paper was a purpose written no-lab-leak PR offensive.

It was quickly clear the Proximalscience Originwas paperrubbish, andbut the fascinating part was the authors who concocted it.

The censorship on talking about the origin of Covid persists to this day.
The outright vilification has dropped offoff - that'sthough nowbarely beenskipped transferreda beat as a sentiment - before re-deployment to the vaccine-hesitant.
Meanwhile, efforts to report on evidence i was discovering in a phone conversation with my scientist friend were met with anger:
Scientist: Anyone who knows anything about virology knows that this virus couldn't have possibly come from a lab.
Me: But the authors have huge COI's - and they were engineering viruses to make them more contagious at WIV - shouldn't that be at least investigated?
Scientist: I'm sick of listening to your boring conspiracy theories. (Hangs up. Sadly - it was last words we've spoken.
