Chinese virologist Dr. Li-Meng Yan claimed that the new coronavirus was manufactured in a government-controlled laboratory in Wuhan and claimed that he has scientific evidence to back up the claim.
The virologist, who became the whistleblower against the Chinese government for its handling of the coronavirus pandemic, was tasked in December last year with investigating a group of Sars-like cases from mainland China. The top scientist working in Hong Kong claimed that she discovered a cover-up operation during her investigation and said the Chinese government knew about the spread of the virus before publicly acknowledging it.
Dr. Li-Meng, who majored in virology and immunology at the Hong Kong School of Public Health, was reportedly forced to flee to the United States for security reasons.
On September 11, she took part in an interview on the British talk show “Loose Women” from a secret location and spoke about her research on the coronavirus disease and the challenges she has been facing.
Dr. Li-Meng said that she conducted two investigations into the “new pneumonia” in China between December and early January and the second in mid-January, and shared the results with her supervisor, who is a consultant to the World Health Organization. Health (WHO). . He expected his supervisor to do “the right thing on behalf of the Chinese government and the WHO”, but to his surprise he was told to “keep quiet or they would make her disappear”, which the virologist said was common sense among the Chinese. .
“Nobody answered, people are afraid of the government and are waiting to collaborate with the government and WHO to get more benefits to be safe, but this is [was] something urgent, ”Dr. Li-Meng said.
At the time of the Chinese New Year, large transports take place from China to all over the world. So, he decided not to keep silent because “this is a stop [highly] contentious dangerous virus. I mean, it’s about human beings and global health. ”
Dr. Li-Meng said it was scary as she faced threats, but “I knew if I didn’t tell the world the truth I would regret it.”
On January 17, he said that he got in touch with a famous Chinese YouTuber in the United States. The exhibit, which was in Chinese, explained that: (1) the Chinese government was only covering the Covid-19 virus, (2) human-to-human transmission of the disease already existed, (3) Sars-CoV-2 is a “high mutation virus” that will soon become an outbreak, and (4) the Wuhan seafood market and the intermediate hosts of the virus were only a “smokescreen”.
And the last thing, said the scientist, was that “this virus is not from nature. This is based on the China Military Institute that discovered and possessed a bad coronavirus (maybe it’s a bat, can’t hear properly) called CC45 and ZXC41. Based on that, after laboratory modification it becomes a new virus. “
Dr. Li-Meng dismissed reports suggesting that the virus originated in wet markets, claiming her intelligence is “from the CDC in China, from local doctors, doctors and other people in China.”
The virologist said she has been working on a scientific report since January, that is, before leaving Hong Kong together with a small group of leading scientists, and that she will publish the findings soon. “We are going to publish it. There are two reports, the first one will arrive in several days and will inform people about the scientific evidence, ”she said.
In shedding light on the unpublished research, he said: “The genome sequence is like our human fingerprint. So based on this, you can recognize and identify this thing. So, I used the existing evidence on the Sars-CoV-2 genome sequence to tell people why this came from China, why they are the only ones who did. “
He also said that anyone, even those without any knowledge of biology, can read it. “You can check it, identify it and verify it yourself. For us it is essential to know the origin of the virus. Otherwise, it will be a threat to everyone’s life, “he added.
