Canadian scientist sent deadly viruses to Wuhan lab months before RCMP asked to investigate

 

06/14/2020

 

Newly-released access-to-information documents reveal details about a shipment of deadly pathogens last year from Canada's National Microbiology Lab to China — confirming for the first time who sent them, what exactly was shipped, and where it went.

 

CBC News had already reported about the shipment of Ebola and Henipah viruses but there's now confirmation one of the scientists escorted from the lab in Winnipeg amid an RCMP investigation last July was responsible for exporting the pathogens to the Wuhan Institute of Virology four months earlier.

 

Dr. Xiangguo Qiu, her husband Keding Cheng and her students from China were removed from Canada's only level-4 lab over what's described as a possible "policy breach." The Public Health Agency of Canada had asked the RCMP to get involved several months earlier.

 

The virus shipments are not related to the outbreak of COVID-19 or research into the pandemic, Canadian officials said.

 

PHAC said the shipment and Qiu's eviction from the lab are not connected.
