337 million years of life were lost due to the corona pandemic, there was an international health emergency for more than three years and the global economy was paralyzed. In addition to serious consequences, there are still many mysteries about the dangerous virus. One of them can now be solved – namely, who was patient zero.
There are many theories about the origin of Covid-19. The US media “Public” and “Racket News” are now reporting, citing US government circles, that there is “significant evidence” for patient zero – ie the infected person who caused the illness.
It is the scientist Ben Hu, who works in the city of Wuhan at the Institute of Virology. There he produced Sars-like pathogens and did experiments with them on mice. A molecular biologist speculates he may be infected.
Notorious Laboratory
This is not a surprising development, because there have been some scandals about the laboratory in Wuhan in the past. Ben Hu and his colleagues were reportedly seen on Chinese state television in 2017 experimenting with Sars-like pathogens.
No one would have worn protective gear. In 2019, Republican lawmakers drew attention to the fact that the release of the coronavirus was due to poor lab safety standards and practices.
Overwhelmed employees
In 2022, research showed that the equipment in the laboratory is inadequate and neither the infrastructure nor the employees are capable of dealing with such dangerous pathogens. And in 2023, the Wall Street Journal drew attention to a leaked secret document that was in the White House. A laboratory accident is said to have led to the pandemic.
