NEWS: The Department of Justice sought information from EcoHealth Alliance as part of COVID origins grand jury investigation. Status unclear. via @COVIDSelect
Also in @COVIDSelect's final report, out just now, EcoHealth Alliance President Peter Daszak NEVER actually asked the Wuhan Institute of Virology for data and notes in compliance with NIH's requests, forwarding an NIH letter with a tepid note.
He blamed strained relations with China for his lack of info. But emails tell another story - showing a chummy relationship between Daszak and "Bat Lady" Shi Zhengli through 2024.
“Dear Peter, I fully support you!” Shi wrote on April 28, 2024. “I believe you will beat them down. Shame on those stupid politicians!”
Daszak misled the committee, the report shows, potentially exposing him to perjury or false statements charges.
DEFUSE is a coronavirus engineering research proposal that some scientists call a "blueprint" for COVID. DARPA rejected the proposal. Daszak said this was merely "a little miff."
In fact, DARPA thought DEFUSE risked creating a pandemic pathogen. The proposal had no gain-of-function research controls.
EcoHealth's most recent progress report describing NIAID-funded coronavirus research with the Wuhan Institute of Virology was submitted two years late -- AFTER the pandemic emerged, when an enormous incentive existed to hide controversial research. He said he was "locked out of the system." An NIH forensic analysis shows Daszak ("PI") accessed the system 72 days during that two-year delay.
