Full disclosure: I had only read about 50 pages of this document but it appears that one of the things he, along with other scientists, were working on reverse engineering H1N1 and possibly created Covid-19. They are also mentioning possible relationships with a scientist from the Wuhan Institute of Virology (Shi Zhengli) and a few other scientists but I can’t recall their names on the top of my head. The Wuhan Institute stands out to me because I had cited some of their reports during the beginning of the pandemic.
Another thing that stands out is that this goes back 8 years to 2014. I was aware of Covid being discussed in New York in 2017. Naturally because how google filters information I can no longer find that source but I was able to find this: Human coronavirus circulation in the United States 2014-2017 - PubMed
This at least does confirm knowledge of the coronavirus prior to the pandemic although those discussed are not the same as the SARS-COV-2.
The point of this post is to not only inform but to exchange knowledge regarding this issue. I make no assumptions about the opinions or sentiments regarding this issue and would like this to be a wholesome discussion. No matter what side of the fence you may be on regarding this issue I feel that it is important that we discuss this and follow up on this case because it is not being publicized.
