Ain't no Ivan ever called me a Jock. Can understand not everyone will be comfortable with that.

They were doing Gain Of Function research which is bioweapons. EcoHealth Alliance is overwhemingly funded by the US state. It's naive to consider it as anything other than part of the US state and it is closely linked to CIA's venture capital organisation In-Q-Tel. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had conspiracy guys send me sensationalistic accounts of this. Absolutely none of them came from science backgrounds either. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, Gain of Function research is not the same as bioweapons. It can be, but it is not necessarily. This stuff is funded all over the world by all kinds of companies. American investment in it in a lab doesn't mean the USA is running a bioweapons lab in that location. It's just rubbish that shows a lack of understanding on how this type of research works.

Yes but I'd say that not being surprised is even more reason to voice your revulsion, anger, shame, whatever at the actions of the UK government. And while a lot of people are probably ok with this, there is I'm sure more who are not, otherwise why the pretence and despicable spin about "doing everything we can?" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
