“Experts” Need to Stop Gaslighting Us About Possible Lab Origins of COVID
Anyone who has dared mention the possibility that coronavirus was created in a lab in Wuhan has been treated like a tinfoil-hat wearing lunatic. When Senator Tom Cotton broached the possibility, he was labeled a fringe conspiracy theorist by the New York Times and was the subject of similar disdain across the media landscape. Just a few days ago CNN wrote on the subject, unable to hide its contempt for anyone who dared disagree with the “experts.”
Despite evidence from infectious disease experts suggesting otherwise, nearly 30% of Americans in a new Pew poll said they believe the novel coronavirus was likely created in a lab. https://t.co/3JxOBdMssk

Those same experts are pawns of the Chinese Communist Party. Here are just a few recent examples of the WHO endangering public health in favor of running cover for the CCP:

“Why was it when the Taiwanese told the WHO on Dec 31 that they had evidence of human to human transmission…Why does it take a whole month for the WHO to respond? You want to know why? Because China has kept Taiwan from being a member of the WHO.” https://t.co/dXoPcsRs8j

These are the experts we’re supposed to be trusting. The same experts who told us:
Dr Fauci: WHO boss 'really an outstanding person', done 'very well' on coronavirus.

And now, at the same time experts are scoffing at anyone who dares suspect we might not be getting the full story on the origins of coronavirus from a regime that has spent months lying about its death toll, we’re seeing these stories:

China has imposed restrictions on the publication of academic research on the origins of the novel coronavirus, according to a central government directive and online notices published by two Chinese universities, that have since been removed from the web. https://t.co/bguqr2tCDz

A tip for the “experts” and their defenders in the media: A little bit of humility about how much we actually know, how much you’ve been wrong about thus far, and an honest statement of fact about the CCP’s lying nature, would do a lot to engender trust in your future reporting and statements. But for now, the American people aren’t going to trust almost anything we’re told. And the responsibility for that is on you, not us.
