The “laboratory leak theory” was once considered a conspiracy theory with little basis. However, the U.S. Department of Energy and the FBI have now pointed out that there is a strong possibility that the virus was leaked from a Chinese laboratory. An important person has finally opened his mouth.
Characteristics Not Found in Nature
As soon as the Yeng Report was published, it was immediately published by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Press (MIT
press) and Johns Hopkins University, and was dismissed as “weakly based. Yet, four years after the outbreak, no intermediate host has been found in nature in which the new corona has mutated to become more infectious to humans.
Dr. Yen explains why Johns Hopkins University and other prestigious U.S. universities do not accept the laboratory leak theory.
Dr. Yen explains, “The reason is that virus research around the world is strongly influenced by the Chinese government. China, with its low awareness of human rights compared to developed Western countries, is an easy place to conduct experiments. It has become the main field for various virus research. There is a bias toward the Chinese government among academic authorities.”
On the other hand, many doctors and virologists who struggled in the field support the “man-made theory” that the new corona was artificially created. Dr. Robert Redfield Jr., the 18th director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and an authority on AIDS and viral research, who was the head of the CDC’s response to the AIDS pandemic, said, “I believe that the AIDS virus is a man-made virus.
I support Dr. Yen’s point one hundred percent that the novel corona was artificially created. Its genetic sequence leaves no doubt that it was artificially created; the SARS and MERS viruses were weakly infectious from person to person, but the new corona had the ability to be too strong from the start. This is a trait not seen in the coronas that evolved in nature.”
Furthermore, Dr. Koh also points out that the U.S. government was complicit with the Wuhan Virus Research Institute.
A Threat Equal to Nuclear Weapons
“On February 1, ’20, at the beginning of the pandemic, former Chief Medical Advisor to the President Anthony Fauci excluded me, the head of the CDC, from the critical discussions to develop a response. This is because of the ‘inconvenient truth’ that the U.S. government was also providing enormous funds to the Wuhan Virus Research Institute.
However, the U.S. government has been forced to take action as a result of the testimonies of those involved and their determined accusations.
In March of this year, the U.S. House of Representatives convened a “Special Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic. Dr. Robert was invited to testify, saying that it was most likely the result of a leak from the Wuhan Institute. He then called for the development and strengthening of a surveillance system for “gain-of-function research,” in which viruses are artificially mutated, which is currently being conducted at the world’s most advanced research institutes in China, Europe, the United States, and other countries.
Gain-of-function research is research that artificially creates viruses that may occur in the future and uses them in the development of vaccines and therapeutics. Dr. Yen said, “Gain-of-function research is the development of new drugs to treat infectious diseases.
However, it could also be used as a biological weapon by states seeking to disrupt the international order or for terrorism. If spread around the world, they could pose the same threat to humanity as nuclear weapons.”
Living in Crippling Exile
Just as the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) continues to monitor nuclear proliferation to prevent its spread, Dr. Yen and Dr. Redfield Jr. share a sense of urgency about the need to consider an international framework to prevent viruses from being leaked from research institutions.
Dr. Yen said that after she defected, her parents were taken hostage and her husband, a colleague at the University of Hong Kong who was also under the control of the Chinese government, was ruthless in his attempts to locate her.
‘My current position is that of an independent researcher. The spy network of the Chinese Communist Party is very strong, and I have to make sure that no one knows where I am. Therefore, I continue my research without any affiliation anywhere.”
Dr. Yen, who continues to speak out despite his inconvenience of living in exile, concluded his speech by saying, “I hope that the world will see the new model as soon as possible.
I hope that the world will face the truth about the new corona as soon as possible.”
