CHINA carried out Nazi-style bioweapons and nuclear experiments on “human Guinea pigs”, a defector has claimed in a bombshell new book.
The Communist Party are alleged to have sanctioned sick tests such as infecting people with diseases and exposing them to nuclear radiation during the 1960s.
High profile defector Wei Jingsheng made the claims while he was interviewed for investigative journalist Sharri Markson’s new book What really happened in Wuhan.
The bombshell book lays out the detailed evidence that the Covid pandemic may have been sparked when a virus leaked from a lab in China.
And as part of the dossier of evidence, Markson looks at the inseparable links between Chinese medical science and the Chinese military which date back decades.
Mr Wei, who is now a celebrated human rights activist, claims China’s human experimentation “only got more dangerous” as the years went on.
Chinese military scientists would carry out germ warfare experiments on young men under the auspices of the Academy of Military Sciences, the medical wing of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) which remains in operation.
Markson compared the experiments to the disturbing and inhumane tests carried out by the Nazis on prisoners during World War 2.
Mr Wei – who attended the same Chinese military school as now president Xi Jinping – revealed the academy’s main role was to “study nuclear war and germ/bacteria warfare”.
“There was an ‘exercise platoon’ of soldiers composed of strong and healthy young men who ate the best food, for the results of the human body experiments.
“To use a large number of soldiers as guinea pigs in the field for military medical research is a well-known thing in China.”
Soldiers were forcibly irradiated during nuclear bomb tests so scientists could study the impacts of radiation on their bodies – with many of them dying of from the poison.
Propaganda videos from the period make no mention of the human experiments – but do show animals being exposed to nuclear radiation during atom bomb detonations.
Chinese soldiers are also seen training to fight in the irradiated zones wearing gas masks and protective suits – before being given check ups.
And the CIA is claimed to have reams of classified data on the past seven decades of Chinese bioweapons tests.
China is alleged to have developed its germ warfare unit after World War 2 after being subjected to bio warfare by Japan – with the military academy being set up in 1951.
“It scared the living s*** out of Chinese communist rebels, because they didn’t know how they were dying,” said former Donald Trump administration official David Asher.
Mr Wei – who defected in 1997 – says he continues to hear horror stories about classified research in China, some of which he alleges is aided by scientists from America.
And he suggested China’s bioweapons division may not be even more advanced than its opposite number in the West thanks to unrestrained – an unethical – experimentation.
“Some scientists who were not allowed to do research in the USA, due to moral issues, would go to China to study, or help train to train students to study, so their level is definitely better than the United States,” he told Markson.
China has recently been accused of once again carrying out “Nazi-style” experiments – this time on Uighur Muslims prisoners.
However, the Communist Party angrily denies any allegations of this.
It has been increasingly speculated as well that the Wuhan Institute of Virology – the lab which may have leaked Covid – may have been working alongside the PLA.
Mr Wei speculated that it is not beyond the realm of possibility to think the virus may have been deliberately released by China.
However, Markson repeatedly states in her book that no other scientist or official she interviewed supported this view.
China however is known to have carried out coronavirus military drills in the months before the outbreak, and there were reports a mysterious illness circulating through the Wuhan military games in September 2019.
“The kindness of Western scientists is worthy of respect,” Mr Wei said.
“Therefore they cannot understand the evil way of thinking and they cannot understand the extent to which Chinese scientists exaggerate their achievements.”
