Gain of Function Research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology—Dr. Nicole Saphier on Lab Leak Theory
At the Wuhan Institute of Virology, “they have published data that they were actually introducing furin cleavage sites,” says Dr. Nicole Saphier, Director of Breast Imaging at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. That mutation would make a virus much more dangerous, she said. In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Nicole Saphier to discuss the Wuhan lab leak theory, Dr. Fauci’s newly released email trove, and her new book, “Panic Attack: Playing Politics With Science in the Fight Against COVID-19.” “When you have the CDC coming out saying young children still need to be wearing masks outdoors, even when they’re physically distancing, until they’re vaccinated—this makes no sense,” Dr. Saphier said.
