FBI Director Christopher Wray tells Fox’s @BretBaier...
The origins of the pandemic are most likely a potential lab incident in Wuhan. Let me step back for a second. The FBI has folks — agents, professionals, analysts, virologists, microbiologists, etc. — who focus specifically on the dangers of biological threats, which include things like novel viruses like Covid. And the concerns that they’re in the wrong hands — some bad guys, a hostile nation-state a terrorist or criminal — the threats that those could pose.
So here you're talking about a potential leak from a Chinese government-controlled lab that killed millions of Americans and that's precisely what that capability was designed for. I should add that our work related to this continues. And there are not a whole lot of details I can share that aren’t classified. I will just make the observation that the Chinese government, it seems to me, has been doing its best to try to thwart and obfuscate the work that we’re doing.
:so-true: COVID is a bioweapon, that's why we didn't do anything to mitigate it's impact!
this newest "bioweapon" push just makes me even more sure that COVID came from fort detrick. Every accusation, a confession.
And they expect the world to follow along. But while they keep trying to spread the lab leak theory, whether it’s true or not, the global south won’t forget the west’s apathy when it came to vaccine donations and their response to opening patents. Hell, I imagine if it is a lab leak, they’ll be even more pissed because the US had all this info and still won’t help with the most basic form of treatment, vaccines.
