Could Wuhan Lab Data Acquired by the U.S. Contain Info Linked to China’s Bio Weapons Program?​

​

Could the Wuhan Lab Data Acquired by the U.S. Contain Information related to China’s Biological Weapons’ program? CNN reported that the U.S. intelligence community is still divided over the two theories of the SARS COVID-2 origin, and that the 90-day report is not likely to reveal earth-shattering information. Why is that? The Biden administration has predicted that science, not intelligence, would be the key to discovering the origin of the virus. What does that mean? Also, the U.S. intelligence community has obtained a large amount of bat and rat virus sample data from the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Would that be the silver bullet of this probe? I had these discussions with Dr. Xiaoxu Sean Lin, former lab director of the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research. This is part one of our interview.

What is it, here is part two of my discussion with Dr. Sean Lin, Former lab director of the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research.

China pushed WHO to dismiss lab leak theory: Report; Singer uses Taliban to mock Beijing​

A U.S. intelligence review of the pandemic’s China origins is due Tuesday. But the public will have to wait to see a non-classified version. A report says Beijing pressured the World Health Organization to dismiss the Wuhan lab leak theory. The Chinese Communist Party retaliates against a Malaysian singer, all because he compared the regime's authoritarian power tactics with the Taliban’s. American troops are still leaving Afghanistan, while Beijing's Belt and Road Initiative suffers inside Afghanistan's neighbor. China's population may be shrinking faster than any other nation’s. Chinese women gave birth to just 1.3 children on average last year. And even the nation's new policy changes may not be able to reverse the trend.

China falsely blames virus on US: Report; Chinese city under lockdown has no reported cases​

Woman attacked at Chinese police station; China stands against sanctions on Taliban | China in Focus​

Beijing opposes current sanctions against the Taliban. The stance falls in line with the friendly relations between them—but each with their own selfish motives.

China’s pork investment in South America sparks criticism. Argentine environmentalists launched a protest, opposing a possible deal with China to install mega pig farms.
