The Wuhan Institute of Virology — the Chinese lab being investigated for possibly leaking the coronavirus — has been authorized to receive US taxpayer funding for animal research through 2024, according to a report.
When the virus first broke out, the Wuhan Institute had reportedly been testing coronaviruses in bats with $600,000 of US funding routed via the nonprofit EcoHealth Alliance.
Here’s where it gets really swampy: Not only did the WHO delegation fail to do its own investigation, merely accepting reports from China’s government, the WHO team’s only American member happens to be the EcoHealth Alliance’s president, Peter Daszak — who demands that Washington unequivocally accept the delegation’s findings. (This also tells you how pathetic the whole WHO investigation was.)
