Is this finally proof Covid DID leak from Wuhan lab? The sample with a 96% match with the virus, a young medic's damning findings, and bat cave trip that killed three miners… the Mail dossier that can no longer be ignored

 

Wall Street Journal reported conclusions from U.S. intelligence report last week

Reported that 3 researchers from the WIV were hospitalised in November 2019

Had with symptoms 'consistent with Covid-19' at least a month before Beijing officially reported the existence of virus

Revelation gives impetus to claims SARS-CoV-2 came via leak in a Wuhan lab

 

There can't be many jobs more hellish than that given to three Chinese miners in the mountainous province of Yunnan in April 2012.

 

Tasked with cleaning out an abandoned copper mine in the county of Moijang, they found themselves in caves knee-deep in piles of guano — a foul-smelling combination of bat faeces and urine.

 

As horseshoe bats roosted overhead, and rats and shrews scurried around in the droppings and muck, the men dug for hours at a time in the stinking, airless space.

 

After two weeks all three had developed a severe, pneumonia-like disease.

 

Three younger men were dispatched to take over but soon they, too, were suffering breathing problems, coughs, and fevers in excess of 39c (102f) — symptoms later described in an obscure Chinese medical paper and which are strikingly similar to the disease we know now as Covid-19.

 

The six miners were moved to the No 1 School of Medicine at Kunming Medical University — more than 100 miles away in the provincial capital — where they were put on ventilators.

 

Within months, three were dead.

 

Blood samples from the victims were sent for analysis to the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) in Hubei Province, a world-renowned centre for coronavirus research and the only laboratory in China permitted to handle deadly viruses such as ebola, bird flu and HIV.

 

There the blood was analysed by Dr Shi Zhengli, a famous scientist known as 'Bat Woman' by her colleagues because of her pioneering virus-hunting expeditions to bat caves in remote parts of China over almost two decades. She concluded that the men had died of a fungal infection caused by a pathogen lurking in the fungus that covered the bat guano.

 

Nine years on and the miners of Mojiang are suddenly generating headlines worldwide after the Wall Street Journal reported conclusions from a confidential U.S. intelligence report last weekend.

 

The newspaper reported that three researchers from the WIV were hospitalised in November 2019 with symptoms 'consistent with Covid-19'. That is at least a month before Beijing officially reported the existence of a new respiratory illness to the world on December 31, 2019.

Following Biden's calls for further investigations, the Chinese Embassy in Washington said: 'Smear campaigns and blame shifting are making a comeback, and the conspiracy theory of 'lab leak' is resurfacing.'

 

So exactly what do we know about the 100 or so SARS-like viruses that the Wuhan Institute of Virology is thought to have stored in its freezers? And, in particular, those obtained from that old copper mine in Yunnan?

 

An analysis of scientific studies suggest that at least four teams of Chinese virologists collected samples from the mine after the miners fell ill. Nine viruses are reported to have been found and were sent to WIV for analysis.

 

One of the viruses, originating from the anus of a horseshoe bat, was given the name RaTG13 by Dr Shi. RaTG13 is a 96.2 per cent match for SARS-CoV-2 (the cause of Covid-19), which makes it ten to 15 mutations away from the Covid-19 virus, and by far its genetically closest relative.

 

Adding to the intrigue is a new analysis of the Moijang outbreak and of Chinese genetic sequencing data by virologist Jonathan Latham, director of the New York-based Bioscience Resource Project, a research and analysis consultancy.

 

In an article published earlier this month on Bioscience's website, Independent Science News, Dr Latham revealed how he had come across a 2013 postgraduate thesis by a young medic entitled: The Analysis Of Six Patients With Severe Pneumonia Caused By Unknown Viruses.

 

Once translated, it became clear that the author, Li Xu, had been supervised in his research by Professor Qian Chuanyun, who worked in the emergency department at Kunming Hospital where the sick miners were treated. The paper concluded that the most likely cause of the outbreak was a coronavirus.

 

'….perhaps most startling of all the findings to emerge from the translation was that the symptoms of the miners closely resembled those of Covid-19,' Dr Latham wrote. He suspects a 'cover-up' by the Chinese because this is the only research paper that he has been able to find that mentions the 2012 outbreak that killed the miners.

 

According to Latham, the answer to the pandemic 'whodunnit' may lie in the Wuhan Institute's collaboration with the EcoHealth Alliance, a U.S. government-funded science group run by a British scientist, Dr Peter Daszak, which for several years had financially backed the WIV in its hunt for new viruses in a bid to better predict emerging diseases.

 

Latham says that Chinese and U.S. researchers have been collaborating for years on risky research that had never been made public for security reasons.

 

Chinese scientists, he says, 'have been isolating, culturing, and studying unpublished coronaviruses found in the cave. It may be the tip of an iceberg… Numerous labs [may be] isolating, culturing, or studying unpublished coronaviruses'
