Biden signs COVID-19 Origin Act of 2023

I wonder how much they will redact in the name of national security. Glad he signed it. We'll have to see how it goes, though.

Hopefully someone within the intelligence community makes a few copies before they dispatch it over to Biden's team of DNC/CNN thugs and propagandists.

So, how is this anything but Good Guy Biden?


We never said anything other than to examine as much evidence as possible and reach the most appropriate conclusion. This isn't a win for lab leakers, it's simply saying to examine as much evidence because more light shed on the origin, the more we understand about preventing future pandemics.


Thing is, lab leak is an easy answer WRT to preventing a pandemic of this sort. If it came from nature, it's a more complex beast since nature is an interrelated mess of factors with no one or nowhere to really blame.
Back off, Warchild.

Seriously.

Remember when the mere suggestion that COVID-19 could have started in a Wuhan lab was decried as conspiracy theory heresy of the highest degree and anyone who dared to even offer that up as a possibility was probably just a mean ol' racist? Even remember how there wasno waythat someone as qualified as aresearchercouldevercause a lab leak that would escalate to such mammoth proportions.

Pepperidge Farm remembers...
SEC. 2. Sense of congress.

It is the sense of Congress that—

(1) identifying the origin of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID–19) is critical for preventing a similar pandemic from occurring in the future;

(2) there is reason to believe the COVID–19 pandemic may have originated at the Wuhan Institute of Virology; and

(3) the Director of National Intelligence should declassify and make available to the public as much information as possible about the origin of COVID–19 so the United States and like-minded countries can—

(A) identify the origin of COVID–19 as expeditiously as possible, and

(B) use that information to take all appropriate measures to prevent a similar pandemic from occurring again.

SEC. 3. Declassification of information related to the origin of COVID–19.

(1) declassify any and all information relating to potential links between the Wuhan Institute of Virology and the origin of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID–19), including—

(A) activities performed by the Wuhan Institute of Virology with or on behalf of the People’s Liberation Army;

(B) coronavirus research or other related activities performed at the Wuhan Institute of Virology prior to the outbreak of COVID–19
; and

(C) researchers at the Wuhan Institute of Virology who fell ill in autumn 2019, including for any such researcher—

(i)the researcher’s name;

(ii) the researcher’s symptoms;

(iii) the date of the onset of the researcher’s symptoms;

(iv)the researcher’s role at the Wuhan Institute of Virology;

(v)whether the researcher was involved with or exposed to coronavirus research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology;

(vi)whether the researcher visited a hospital while they were ill; and

(vii) a description of any other actions taken by the researcher that may suggest they were experiencing a serious illness at the time; and

(2) submit to Congress an unclassified report that contains—

(A) all of the information described under paragraph (1); and

(B) only such redactions as the Director determines necessary to protect sources and methods.


Perhaps some useful idiot become suddenly a lot less useful. Whatever the case, the only major caveat on the bill's part is the discretion to not disclose based on possible national security.

Now, you know what would be pretty funny and totally on brand? If the Wuhan Lab had nothing to do with it but they wanted to pin it on them anyways because of the mounting political tension in preparation for who knows what kind of skullduggery.

Remember: We were never at war with Eastasia. We were always at war with Eastasia.
I will stand firm, I refuse to kneel - The fury in me is divine
My dark grave awaits, my fate is revealed - But I'm not afraid to die

The theory that the virus escaped from a laboratory in Wuhan is supported by multiple pieces of evidence, including the fact that the Wuhan Institute of Virology had been conducting research on bat coronaviruses, some of which were highly similar to SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. Additionally, the laboratory was known to have issues with biosafety protocols, and several employees at the institute reportedly fell ill with COVID-19-like symptoms in late 2019.

The initial reports of the virus emerging from a seafood market in Wuhan have been called into question, as several early cases of COVID-19 had no link to the market. The genetic sequence of the virus also suggests that it may have undergone artificial manipulation in a laboratory setting.

It is essential to consider the possibility that the virus could have originated from a laboratory, as this could have important implications for how we prevent future pandemics. By studying the origins of COVID-19, we can gain a better understanding of how the virus emerged and take steps to prevent similar outbreaks in the future.

Regarding the role of President Biden in the vaccine rollout, while he played a crucial role in supporting vaccine development and distribution, it is important to acknowledge the efforts of multiple stakeholders, including scientists, public health officials, and healthcare workers. The success of the vaccine rollout is a result of a collective effort from many individuals and organizations.

Lol, it's actually pretty obvious now when someone is just asking Chat GPT AI and copy-pasta-ing.

Once upon a time, there was a boy named Bodhy, who had a unique passion for creating art using fecal matter. They spent countless hours refining their technique, experimenting with different colors and textures, and creating intricate and detailed pieces that spoke to their artistic vision.

However, as they delved deeper into their hobby, Bodhy began to encounter significant challenges. For one, the smell and mess associated with working with fecal matter made it difficult to create art in public spaces or shared living quarters. They also struggled with finding the right materials and tools to create the effects they desired, as well as dealing with the stigma and judgment that often accompanied their chosen medium.

Despite these obstacles, Bodhy remained committed to their art and continued to create pieces in secret, hiding them away from prying eyes and disapproving comments. They found solace in online communities and forums where they could connect with others who shared their passion and provide support and encouragement to one another.

While they still faced challenges in pursuing their hobby, Bodhy found that the joy and fulfillment they derived from creating fecal art was worth the effort. They continued to refine their skills and experiment with new techniques, pushing the boundaries of what was possible in this unconventional art form. For them, the difficulties of maintaining fecal art as a hobby were a small price to pay for the joy and creative expression it brought to their life.

Suddenly changing your tune? Just because it came from Wuhan, near a lab, doesn't mean it came from a lab......
