Adam curry Jhansi Devorah and Sunday April 3 2022. This is
0:04
your award winning give on nation media assassination
0:07
episode 1439. This is no agenda,
0:12
rewinding the
0:13
COVID clock and broadcasting almost live from the heart of
0:16
the Texas hill country here in FEMA Region number six in the
0:18
morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry,
0:21
and from Northern Silicon Valley where it's my birthday week. I'm
0:25
Jhansi Dvorak.
0:31
My my voice is still cracking. Long, long, long. COVID
0:35
continues long. COVID long COVID
0:39
It's hardly noticeable. Yeah,
0:40
it was better on Thursday. And I just cracked. So here we are.
0:46
We're almost live. It's kind of like we're really here. You of
0:50
course are in the Seychelles wish. Have you ever been to
0:56
Seychelles?
0:57
No, but I've been told by a couple of guys who do a lot of
1:00
traveling. They've been all over the world. They say the
1:02
Seychelles is the best. Yeah, I've never been unfortunate. I
1:05
don't know if it's true anymore. This was like 20 years 20 plus
1:08
years ago wasn't the
1:09
Seychelles the one that was going to tip over from climate
1:12
change.
1:14
It was one of the islands but I don't think it was that that was
1:17
gonna say show I was gonna drown national idiot. Yeah.
1:21
So we're taking now. I am hoping that I got the timing of this
1:25
right. The reason for this break is because we you and I haven't
1:28
had a break in a year.
1:30
Year and a half to almost two years. I think it was two years
1:33
not away with Tina and I went away. We had a break in 2020. Do
1:38
we have one in 2012? I can't remember if we had one. No,
1:41
Bolden must have been I know we didn't have one is 2020 You
1:44
can't remember when you last one on vacation then it was a while
1:47
ago? Yeah. So I hoped I timed this before the the the food
1:55
shortages and the financial collapse. And I think we did
2:00
pretty well by timing it after the Ukrainian war and COVID.
2:03
We've done pretty well.
2:06
We'll see if you can't get back. We'll know the reason why.
2:09
But they're definitely gonna kick that into high gear.
2:11
They're definitely COVID is coming back. We have all the
2:14
evidence. They're going to do something it's gonna be testing
2:17
gold dragon to get much traction, they got to find
2:19
something else to do dig their work. They can't bring it.
2:22
Democrats can't bring it back because they're gonna they
2:24
already know they got troubles for the midterms. Yeah, they
2:27
can't take a chance on pissing off everybody. They would bring
2:30
it back maybe to get to a mail in ballots so they can scam that
2:34
again. Right
2:35
now. They can't they can't drag it out. We'll see. In the
2:38
meanwhile, the art for the last episode 1438 Taunton, Neil, I
2:42
believe was clearly perfect because you called the end of
2:47
the COVID pandemic, April 2022. And here we are,
2:51
seems to be over perfect timing, and the war should be over by
2:55
the time we get back.
2:58
Until then, what have you put together for us for this
3:01
is a show of COVID clips only. And I've got a couple hours
3:06
worth in it's like all the stuff from the beginning with the
3:09
first clip when we first met COVID first appeared on the
3:11
scene right through the goal two or three weeks, so it has
3:15
flattened the curve. And I got the boat coming out to bring in
3:20
the Mercy Ships. Oh,
3:22
I forgot about those. Yeah, the hospital ships,
3:25
ships, they didn't send one person to and they have
3:27
ventilators we need more ventilator so we can kill more
3:30
people. And they there's just a lot of good stuff and a lot of
3:35
has been forgotten but I think this will bring back a few
3:38
memories
3:39
now as I was listening to the next week. Next episode. So next
3:44
next ship next
3:46
I'm losing it the next episodes clips, which will be the best of
3:52
end of show mixes it's really incredible what the human brain
3:57
has had I'm sure you'd notice this what the human brain has
4:00
had to endure in the past two and a half years of bullshit
4:06
being injected directly through our retinas into our brains.
4:10
Yeah, to good thing we're doing this show I don't know where
4:12
we'd be I mean it's not
4:13
it's not just okay we had a virus and then there was
4:16
problems. I mean, all the stuff it's amazing to think and I
4:20
think people will realize this when they listen to it how much
4:23
bull crap was thrown at your brain and your amygdala non stop
4:29
Yeah, it's pretty nonstop that was the problem I think either
4:33
way Ross remember the one good thing was that out here because
4:36
of the way they structured the shutdown stay at home laws. They
4:40
had this media exemption thing which included podcasters so I'm
4:45
out and about but their traffic down to nothing there's nobody
4:48
on the roads and driving around
4:50
beauty rate and this so these clips are just the clips not us.
4:54
I'm sorry, the clips the this specialist just the clips not
4:58
us.
4:59
Yeah, you The clips love it. And please note there are no vaccine
5:03
clips in this batch because this is from January 2020 to May
5:09
1 2020 It's just unbelievable.
5:12
Let's kick it off COVID Best of ever go.
5:17
We will show you inside Georges lugar laboratory which detects
5:22
and prevents the spread of dangerous diseases. But pro
5:26
Kremlin media claim it spreads disease experimenting on humans
5:31
with cancer, the Zika virus killer mosquitoes and plagues of
5:35
stinkbugs. I asked the laboratories director whether
5:39
there was any truth to these narratives,
5:42
but we are not making Zika virus in this operator, the killer
5:45
mosquito about the laboratory is the the level of the laboratory
5:52
is so high that we can diagnose here the Zika Ebola creamier
5:56
Congo and many many infectious diseases. No killer blocky
6:01
making this virus is here.
6:03
No Marmorated Stink Bug coming from the lluvia laboratory but
6:08
the Marmorated Stink Bug. I'm not a scientist. But what I have
6:14
been seeing here suggests that this laboratory is exactly what
6:18
the Georgian government says it is. The Russian claims that
6:22
what's going on at the lugar lab is far more sinister, haven't
6:26
been supported by any hard evidence in taxes.
6:30
Authorities are warning that a traveler with measles may have
6:33
unknowingly exposed others across the country that come
6:36
that new alert comes amid an increase in measles cases
6:39
nationwide. Sam Brock is in Austin with the latest.
6:43
Tonight an urgent health alert from Texas after a passenger
6:46
infected with measles passed through the Austin Airport last
6:49
week after traveling in Europe. It's Travis county's first
6:52
detected case in 20 years.
6:54
We're trying to get on top of this share as much information
6:57
as we can to try to really contain this
7:00
the passenger left from Austin International Airport on
7:02
December 17, but then proceeded to go to airports in Chicago and
7:05
Virginia, meaning that other passengers and not one, not two,
7:09
but three different airports were potentially exposed this
7:12
after separate cases in LA X and Denver international airports
7:15
earlier this month. But health experts say Austin is at greater
7:19
risk because of low vaccination rates of children.
7:21
Austin unfortunately, is one of the epicenters of the anti
7:25
vaccine movement in America. A startling
7:28
study earlier this year estimates one infected person
7:31
could lead to an outbreak of more than 400 cases in Austin,
7:35
with nearly 1300 confirmed cases of the measles nationwide this
7:38
year more than three times the number last year the highly
7:41
contagious virus can linger in the air for hours. Symptoms
7:45
include cough, rash, fever and sore eyes. Tonight doctors say
7:49
it's another stark reminder to get vaccinated. Sam Brock, NBC
7:54
News Austin,
7:55
two year old Jude McGee, 26 year old newlywed Katie mutt
7:59
question. Gianna cabas sagg, a four year old little girl they
8:07
all died of the flu, and they all had flu shots. There's no
8:11
question you should get a flu shot. Last flu season the flu
8:15
killed at least 36,000 people so this shot could literally save
8:20
your life. But it's far from perfect.
8:23
Even on a good year, influenza. The effectiveness of the vaccine
8:28
is about 60% On a bad year. It's as
8:31
low as 10%.
8:32
Do we need to make a better flu vaccine?
8:34
You know, we really absolutely do.
8:36
In September, President Trump signed an executive order noting
8:40
that the current system for making flu shots has critical
8:42
shortcomings. The order pledges to modernize the process. The
8:46
first step, stop using eggs to make flu vaccine. They grow the
8:50
virus in the eggs like the eggs you eat for breakfast, and then
8:54
they kill the virus and put it in a vaccine. But sometimes the
8:57
virus changes inside the egg so it doesn't end up matching the
9:01
flu that's out there spreading among people. That's why some
9:04
companies like this one have figured out ways to grow the flu
9:07
virus without using eggs. Trump's executive order is
9:11
designed to encourage more of this technology and something
9:14
even bigger, something researchers have been working on
9:17
for years of flu vaccine you would get only once in your life
9:21
instead of every year. A new
9:23
viral outbreak from China is spreading around the world.
9:27
Countries like the US Japan and Thailand have confirmed cases.
9:32
And on Wednesday, a Chinese health official has said the
9:35
virus is adapting and mutating. So what exactly do we know about
9:40
this flu like virus? Your health officials now say it can be
9:45
passed from person to person. So far hundreds of cases have been
9:49
confirmed and several people have died. Symptoms include
9:53
fever, coughing and difficulty breathing and can lead to
9:57
pneumonia. The exact origins is unknown though Chinese officials
10:02
have linked the outbreak to a seafood market in the city of
10:05
Wuhan. All of the deaths so far have been in that central
10:09
Chinese city. It's also home to a Foxconn plant, which is a key
10:13
supplier to Apple. And it's hosting Olympic qualifiers for
10:17
women's soccer next month. thing to look out for next will be
10:21
what happens over Chinese New Year, and whether Fear takes its
10:25
toll on the global economy. Millions of people are preparing
10:29
to travel around China and abroad for the New Year
10:32
celebrations, raising the risk of a wider contagion. Fear of a
10:37
pandemic has also sent chills through the markets, investors
10:41
are comparing it to China's 2003 SARS outbreak that killed nearly
10:46
800 people, and by some estimates caused $40 billion in
10:51
global economic losses. Aviation and luxury goods stocks have
10:55
already been hit particularly hard with concerns it could
10:59
deter Chinese consumers from traveling or shopping.
11:02
What we know and I think this is one of the big points out and I
11:04
remember this covering the SARS outbreak and the MERS outbreak
11:07
at some point. The question is, is this something that is just
11:10
spreading from animals to humans as it seemed to be in central
11:13
China, people visiting the seafood and an exotic pet
11:16
markets? Or is this something that is spreading from human to
11:20
human? And we now have evidence that it is spreading from human
11:23
to human? Seems that 14 healthcare workers that were
11:26
taking care of this patient in Wuhan, were infected and we also
11:30
know people who never visited Wuhan are now carrying the
11:33
virus. So that human to human transmission is what this
11:36
meeting tomorrow this public health meeting is going to be
11:38
all about. Really scary.
11:40
I mean, or at least it sounds scary to the lay person.
11:43
And so what's keeping public health officials up at night
11:46
most?
11:47
Well, you know, I think immediately what you think of
11:49
when you hear this Coronavirus, and we have an image of what
11:52
this looks like. You think a SARS you remember this I mean I
11:55
covered this 2003 You think of MERS by the way quick
11:58
microbiology Coronavirus, that's the crown on the outside, you'll
12:02
always be able to identify this type of virus. They're mostly an
12:06
animal's Allison seven times have we ever documented they
12:10
jumped from animals to humans and only two of those times what
12:14
didn't end up being a really significant infection, SARS and
12:17
MERS so what's keeping public health officials up at night is
12:21
is this going to go the way of SARS and MERS was SARS was a
12:24
nearly two dozen countries 8000 People infected 800 people died.
12:29
Is it going to go that way? Or is it going to be more of a more
12:32
innocuous gets people sick but people don't really die? We
12:35
don't know yet. And that's what they're going to try and
12:38
determine look at all this data and figure that out.
12:40
Found a new virus that has killed nine people and infected
12:43
hundreds more in China has now spread to the US. A man in his
12:47
30s from Washington State is the first person in America to be
12:51
diagnosed with Coronavirus. It's called the man returned to the
12:54
Seattle area last week from a trip to Wuhan. That's a city in
12:58
central China where the outbreak began. Right now that patient is
13:01
in isolation in a hospital north of Seattle.
13:05
Our number one priority is to complete the identification of
13:09
all the patients contacts, reach out to the contacts and monitor
13:13
their health. We also want to
13:15
enhance screening is already in place at three US airports with
13:18
two more being added this week. Are Dr. Tara Narula is you're at
13:21
the table with more on this story. You hear about it. You
13:24
see the mask. It's very disturbing. How worried should
13:26
we be? Yeah, and
13:27
what is it? Exactly?
13:28
So this is a form of Coronavirus. We've known about
13:32
Coronavirus before this is a new strain. This is a virus that's
13:35
found worldwide. It causes typically a mild or moderate
13:39
respiratory illness but it can be more severe. We saw that with
13:42
SARS and MERS which are also forms of Coronavirus. So
13:46
certainly the CDC is recommending that we be cautious
13:49
about this that we'd be proactive because it is a new
13:52
strain. It is contagious. So interestingly, they think it
13:55
does circulate in animals, and occasionally can make the jump
13:58
from animals to humans, which is what they think happened in this
14:01
case, because the initial cases were surrounding an area of
14:04
market a seafood animal market in the Wuhan area. And so they
14:08
think that it started in animals, it was transmitted to
14:11
humans. And now they're saying that, in fact that is spread
14:13
between human to humans. Bottom line,
14:15
we don't have to worry about this one, right. Well, I
14:18
you know, obviously you need to take it seriously and do the
14:22
kinds of things that the CDC and the Department of Homeland
14:26
Security are doing. But this is not a major threat for the
14:30
people in the United States. And this is not something that the
14:33
citizens of the United States right now should be worried
14:35
about.
14:36
It's great to see. Thank you for joining us again in Davos. We've
14:39
done this before, right think was a couple of years ago.
14:42
Before we get started with with we're going to talk about the
14:45
economy a lot of other things. A The CDC has identified a case of
14:50
Coronavirus in Washington state the Wu Han strain of this if you
14:56
remember SARS that affected GDP travel related effects. Do you?
15:02
Have you been briefed by the CDC? The words about a pandemic
15:06
at this point? Oh,
15:07
not at all. And we're, we have a totally under control. It's one
15:11
person coming in from China. And we have it under control. It's
15:16
going to be just fine.
15:17
Okay. President Xi. There's just some some talk in China that
15:21
that maybe the transparency isn't everything that it's going
15:24
to be you trust that we're going to know everything we need to
15:26
know from China?
15:27
I do I do. I have a great relationship with President Xi.
15:30
We just signed probably the biggest deal ever made that
15:33
terms. It certainly has the potential to be the biggest deal
15:36
ever made. And it was very interesting for the time, let's
15:41
get without it done. And no, I do. I think the relationship is
15:45
very, very good.
15:46
It may take quite some time before we know the full economic
15:49
impact of the one virus but the disruption is likely to dent
15:52
China's economy. And that's because Wuhan is a major
15:56
transport hub in recent years has become a symbol of
15:59
capitalism in central China with international automakers, such
16:03
as Honda and General Motors Building cars there. In fact,
16:06
reports say that more than 300 of the world's top 500 companies
16:12
have a presence in Wuhan. Local government data showed that
16:16
one's GDP growth was 7.8% last year and that that is 1.7
16:23
percentage points higher than the national average. Who hands
16:26
economic strength last year came as its total value of imports
16:30
and exports hit a record high it was 13.7% higher than in 2018.
16:35
And it accounted for almost 62% of Hubei provinces
16:39
overall foreign trade value
16:41
tonight concern growing in the United States officials saying
16:44
they expect more people will contract the dangerous new
16:47
disease. Passengers on flights to Boston wearing face masks.
16:51
Everybody's wearing the mask because they're afraid of
16:54
getting infected by other people
16:56
in Seattle, Chicago and Los Angeles reports that stores are
17:00
running out of supplies of masks. Two cases currently
17:03
confirmed in Chicago a woman in her 60s She had cold like
17:07
symptoms shortness of breath, fever, and many times it would
17:13
present just like a cold just to pay for cold or flu and outside
17:17
Seattle, a man in his 30s At least 63 people are now being
17:22
tested for the respiratory illness in 22 states including
17:25
three possible cases in New York. Symptoms include fever,
17:29
dry cough and shortness of breath. Tonight hospitals on
17:33
high alert Dr. Jennifer Ashton visited New York City's Health
17:36
and Hospitals Bellevue
17:37
so this is a negative pressure Room here at the hospital where
17:40
a patient with Coronavirus would be cared for by specially
17:44
trained
17:44
medical personnel. They showed her precautions they would need
17:47
to take how prepared
17:49
are you and your staff to receive a patient who may have
17:52
Coronavirus. We're prepared to take that patient now our radar
17:55
is always set high so we can screen these patients so we can
17:59
stop it from infecting other people in the public.
18:02
Tonight at the epicenter of the Coronavirus outbreak. The crisis
18:07
is escalating dozens of workers in Wuhan with heavy machinery
18:11
racing against time to build a brand new 1000 bed hospital in
18:15
just 10 days, and now a second 1300 bed facility in the next
18:20
15. The space desperately needed hospitals teeming with patients
18:26
and staff stretched then. In China alone. There are now more
18:29
than 1400 cases and at least 42 deaths as more than 400 medics
18:35
who've worked on SARS and Ebola deploy to help with a rapidly
18:39
growing emergency. Wuhan and 16 other cities in a travel
18:43
lockdown. That's a total of 15 million people ordered to stay
18:48
in place. That's the population of the state of New York and
18:52
Texas combined. The US government's evacuating the
18:55
majority of consulate employees and families from Wuhan and is
18:59
reportedly working on a charter flight to get all remaining
19:02
Americans out.
19:04
The term Cabin Fever is probably coming into play here.
19:08
Here it's the Chinese Lunar New Year the country's biggest
19:11
holiday. New Year worshipers have gathered here to pray for
19:15
good luck in the year of the wrath. But people also be warned
19:18
about gathering in large places like this. And so most people
19:22
here are wearing these kind of protective masks. The list of
19:26
cases outside Mainland China also growing with more than 35
19:30
cases in 13 countries or territories, including France.
19:34
In Japan. The health ministry says three evacuees have tested
19:38
positive for the virus. A day after returning to Tokyo. 206
19:44
passengers were on their government chartered flight on
19:47
Wednesday all were sent to medical institutions to undergo
19:51
tests. The ministry says two of the infected patients had no
19:55
symptoms. It's the first time in Japan the virus has been
19:58
detected in patients with without symptoms. The prime
20:01
minister also says two of the evacuees didn't give their
20:06
consent for the health check.
20:08
The procedure was not legally binding. Unfortunately, they did
20:10
not agree to be tested. We could not force them as it was also a
20:14
human rights issue.
20:16
They said he's confident all evacuees on subsequent flights
20:19
will give their consent. Now a second plane carrying 210
20:24
Japanese nationals from the virus hit city touchdown at
20:27
Haneda Airport on Thursday morning. 13 passengers on that
20:32
flight are exhibiting symptoms and have been sent to a special
20:35
hospital for infectious diseases.
20:37
Good morning. Dr. Jango Chou has been recognized by the Governor
20:41
General's Innovation Awards.
20:43
This work can't be done without teamwork. She and the team
20:47
at the National microbiology lab have been praised for developing
20:50
any bola vaccine, but just over a week ago to her husband and
20:55
her students from China were evicted from Canada's only level
20:59
for lab. Their security access revoked. Staff at the lab was
21:03
told last Monday the couple is on leave and not to communicate
21:07
with them. We're getting those resources who work at the lab
21:11
but who don't want to be identified for Fears they'll be
21:13
punished. They say this is coming just months after it
21:17
specialists entered choose office after hours and replaced
21:21
your computer and her superiors stopped authorizing work trips
21:25
to China. Manitoba RCMP confirmed it was called in by
21:29
the Public Health Agency of Canada on May 24. A spokesperson
21:34
says the agency is investigating a policy breach calling it an
21:38
administrative matter and it's taking steps to resolve it
21:41
expeditiously. We can assure Canadians that there is no risk
21:45
to the public and that the work of the NML continues in support
21:49
of the health and safety of all Canadians.
21:52
I want to stress. The risk of infection for Americans remains
21:58
low. And with these and our previous actions, we are working
22:02
to keep the risk low. All agencies are working
22:07
aggressively to monitor this continually evolving situation.
22:11
And to keep the public informed and it constantly transparent
22:14
way. The United States appreciates China's efforts and
22:18
coordination with public health officials across the globe and
22:22
continues to encourage the highest levels of transparency.
22:26
It is likely that we will continue to see more cases in
22:29
the United States in the coming days and weeks, including some
22:32
limited person to person transmission. The American
22:35
public can be assured the full weight of the US government is
22:39
working to safeguard the health and safety of the American
22:43
people.
22:44
You need not look far to see the economic consequences of this
22:47
virus airline after airline suspending flights to China.
22:51
This afternoon. One of air Canada's last direct flights
22:55
from Beijing landed in Vancouver. In China, entire
22:58
swaths of the country have been shut down. Starbucks has closed
23:02
more than half its outlets Toyota announced it will close
23:05
its plants. And Google says it will temporarily close all of
23:09
its Chinese offices. Remember though back in 2003, China was
23:13
basically the world's factory today China's much more
23:17
intertwined in the buying and selling of the global economy.
23:21
The fact that the
23:21
Chinese authorities have clamped down and they put many cities in
23:26
lockdown already. That means those consumers aren't out there
23:29
purchasing and that will really dampen Chinese growth.
23:33
And that dampening will be felt in places you may not expect.
23:38
Cameron seafood sells about half its lobsters to China. And
23:43
Chinese New Year is one of the busiest times of year they were
23:46
set to ship about 20,000 pounds this week.
23:49
Those are all canceled. So actually the sales to China
23:53
completely disappeared from Monday.
23:58
There are other markets for those lobsters but there's no
24:01
way to make up the loss of the Chinese market and no way of
24:05
knowing how or when the world's second biggest economy will
24:09
reopen for business.
24:10
A new case of the deadly Coronavirus has been confirmed
24:13
in the US the latest case in Massachusetts. It's the eighth
24:17
in the US and the first on the East Coast. Health officials
24:21
have declared a public health emergency. nearly 14,000 people
24:25
worldwide have been infected and more than 300 have died. And
24:29
nearly 60 million people in China are under travel
24:32
restrictions. Ramy no Sensio leading us off from Beijing.
24:36
The CDC says the new case of Coronavirus is a Boston resident
24:41
in his 20s who recently traveled to the center of the outbreak
24:44
Wuhan China, he's been placed in isolation. Also today tech giant
24:49
Apple announced it would close all its stores and offices in
24:52
China until February 9, joining a growing list of companies
24:56
restricting operations here this all comes as the worst The World
25:00
Health Organization declared a global health emergency and the
25:03
US State Department raised its travel advisory for China to the
25:07
highest level, meaning do not travel to China. A new study out
25:11
by the British medical journal The Lancet estimates that more
25:14
than 75,000 people have been infected by the virus as of last
25:18
week. If that turns out to be true, it will confirm what many
25:22
already fear that Beijing is massively under reporting these
25:25
numbers. The CDC reported that even if patients initial tests
25:29
for Coronavirus are negative, they could still develop the
25:32
illness because the test only works when patients have
25:35
symptoms. A study also showed the virus can be transmitted by
25:39
patients with no symptoms. A woman who travelled from
25:42
Shanghai to Germany infected seven other people while she
25:47
remained asymptomatic. Those findings contributed to the
25:50
decision to place 195 Americans housed at a California airbase
25:55
in the first federal quarantine in 50 years, they will spend 14
25:59
days there
26:00
that's way to control a virus like this is to keep people away
26:04
from everyone else. While you run out the clock on that
26:07
incubation period,
26:08
I routinely monitor outbreaks of disease around the world, both
26:14
for humans and animals to see if there might be a biological
26:20
warfare agent at work. So I follow what was going on there
26:27
at Wuhan. And eventually reached the conclusion that what we are
26:33
dealing here is an offensive biological warfare agent that
26:41
leapt out of the Wuhan biosafety level for a laboratory there
26:49
that has been DNA genetically engineered with gain of function
26:56
properties that simply accelerates the DNA genetically
27:01
engineering for a bio warfare agent in the first place. And as
27:08
far as I can tell, right now, Steve, just having read the
27:13
public record, it does appear as if it's a combination of what's
27:18
called a camera that basically you have the SARS. And we know
27:24
that that facility has previously worked with SARS and
27:28
stars leaked out of there at least twice before combined with
27:32
the flu virus. And it appears also combined with HIV that, you
27:39
know, leads to AIDS. At a minimum. It's my opinion that
27:43
you know, it's extremely dangerous. The Chinese
27:47
government the first case was December 1, it had nothing at
27:50
all to do with the you know, the food central there that's just
27:55
baloney and propaganda. Clearly the Chinese government knew
27:59
about it probably right around December one, the first human to
28:04
human transmission transmission was December 15. So the Chinese
28:09
government has been lying about it since then. This is a
28:13
specially designated who research lab. Now imagine that
28:19
the who are specially designating a bio warfare lab.
28:25
So the by the who is in on this? These BSL four facilities are
28:31
only good for research, developing, testing and
28:34
stockpiling biological warfare weapons.
