Covid: Hiding in Plain Sight Since 2015
The lab origin of SARS-CoV-2 was published in 2015
One of the most striking features of the corrupt pandemic response is that its innumerable elements of fraud, deception, malfeasance, unconstitutionality, and negligent homicide are NOT concealed.
Because these criminal elements are not reported by the mainstream media, they remain unknown to most people. Like pebbles tossed onto a recently mown lawn, they are not immediately visible, but would be to anyone who looks a little closer.
This is not actual concealment; it’s just a matter of not drawing attention to something. Nevertheless, such systematic omissions result in ignorance for those accustomed to obtaining their information from the mainstream media.
This ignorance is reinforced by the consumption of daily mainstream news, which diminishes awareness of any particular story that develops over a period of time.
A stunning form of this deception by omission is when public officials, scientists, and the media pretend not to notice extremely harmful and even criminal conduct that is detectable for anyone who bothers to look.
Public officials and news reporters have no excuse for not looking because it’s their job to look. Their omissions are analogous to a police investigator choosing not to look at a video surveillance recording of a bank that has just been robbed by a man not wearing a mask. Those who have committed dangerous and even criminal acts are, in this way, allowed to hide in plain sight.
A striking example is the histrionic debate over whether NIH grant recipients conducted Gain-of-Function research on bat coronaviruses.
The pinnacle of such theater were the jousting matches between Senator Rand Paul and Dr. Anthony Fauci at Senate Health Committee hearings, at which Dr. Fauci vehemently insisted his agency did NOT fund Gain-of-Function research on bat coronaviruses.
Apart from Senator Paul, few in the Senate, and few if any in the mainstream media, questioned Dr. Fauci’s assertions.
And yet, to see that the NIH was, in fact, funding Gain-of-Function research on bat coronaviruses, one need only to read the 2015 paper titled A SARS-like cluster of circulating bat coronaviruses shows potential for human emergence by Veneet Menachery, Zhengli-Li Shi, Ralph Baric, et al.
This study plainly states that the authors conducted Gain-of-Function research on bat coronaviruses in order to make them infectious to primary human airway epithelial cells.
Towards the end of the paper, the reader comes to the following section:
Biosafety and Biosecurity.
Reported studies were initiated after the University of North Carolina Institutional Biosafety Committee approved the experimental protocol (Project Title: Generating infectious clones of bat SARS-like CoVs; Lab Safety Plan ID: 20145741; Schedule G ID: 12279).
These studies were initiated before the US Government Deliberative Process Research Funding Pause on Selected Gain-of-Function Research Involving Influenza, MERS and SARS Viruses (http://www.phe.gov/s3/dualuse/Documents/gain-of-function.pdf).
This paper has been reviewed by the funding agency, the NIH.
Continuation of these studies was requested, and this has been approved by the NIH.
Note that the reason for pausing Gain-of-Function research was the determination that its risks outweighed its potential benefit. The legalistic assertion that this particular Gain-of-Function research was authorized to continue flies in the face of the risk assessment.
Such research was, in 2014, deemed to be too dangerous for mankind, and in fact (as we now know) it was too dangerous. That Professor Baric’s research was approved before this negative risk assessment was made is immaterial.
The 2015 paper and other documents show that Ralph Baric and his Chinese colleague, Zhengli-Li Shi, were indeed engineering SARS-like bat coronaviruses in a lab at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in order to make them highly infectious to humans.
Today we learn that Dr. Andrew Huff, former EcoHealth Alliance vice president and scientist, has just published a book titled The Truth about Wuhan: How I Uncovered the Biggest Lie in History.
We welcome Dr. Huff’s report, though we suspect that he won’t reveal anything we don’t already know.

Hi PSI Readers,
Even if this comment never gets posted, I am trying to make it a record of fact that this is the first comment relative to this article. Which is an excellent article reporting unquestionable evidence.
Have a good day, Jerry

Over 2.5 years ago I found the article referenced by Zhengli-Li Shi as well as other articles by her (oddly enough in info on her on Wikipedia, now removed). Her articles clearly explained the chimera she and her cohorts had produced as well as medications that would stop it. If I could find the articles, why could no one else in our government

after doing quite a bit of general research at the very begin of 2020, I came to somewhat different conclusion. That entire SARS-CoV-2 origin/bats/etc. is very questionable, in my opinion. There are TOO MANY COMMON features between HIV-1 virus proteins and SARS-CoV-2 Spike. Just TOO MUCH! On top of everything the amino acid sequences lead also to too many HUMAN proteins/HORMONES/etc homologies. When a bat would ever end up having those in its genome? Yes, lab origin is 100%, BUT on what? SARS-CoV? I think that SARS-CoV-2 virus has lot, too much in common with many pathogens from all previous real vaccinations, implying ALL comes from LAB, for a long, long time already! The 2020 Spike sequence is ~37% IDENTICAL with the patented peplomeric protein from 1987!!! Anyone can read my ‘mejbcart’ substack at:

Hi PSI Readers,
Recently, someone has been asking for evidence. If one follows the links one does not to really understand all that is written (explained), but the reading of a few key words should convince one that this 2015 paper is evidence of what was being done in 2015.
Have a good day, Jerry
