A CHINESE virologist who fled to the US after alleging China covered up the Covid outbreak claims a trove of Anthony Fauci’s emails proves her bioweapons allegations.
Dr Li Meng-Yan alleges the messages, obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, reveal the White House virus expert knew the virus may have been engineered but publicly downplayed it.
In an interview on Newsmax, Dr Li said Fauci‘s emails, which were published by Buzzfeed and the Washington Post on Tuesday, proved he knew about the Chinese experiments involving engineering viruses to make them more deadly.
She said: “These people knew what happened, but they chose to hide for the Chinese Communist Party and their own benefits.”
Tod date, since the beginning of the pandemic, Covid-19 has infected 172,457,078 and killed 3,707,631 people worldwide.
Following the release of the emails, Fauci today finally acknowledged the “lab-made” Covid theory may have some weight as top Republicans call for him to be ousted after thousands of his emails were leaked.
The top doc spoke out after being blasted by Senator Rand Paul and Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene when his correspondence came to light, while Candace Owens wants him “tried and imprisoned.”
Dr Li had published two reports last year and one this year which were published without peer review on Zenodo.
‘UNRESTRICTED BIOWEAPONS’
In the latest paper published on March 31, she claimed: “The causative agent of Covid-19, is not a naturally occurring pathogen but an Unrestricted Bioweapon.
“It is a product of the bioweapons program of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) government, the network of which includes not only the CCP scientists but also certain overseas scientists and organizations.”
The Wuhan lab leak explanation has been considered at first to be a conspiracy theory that was pushed by the far right to blame China for the pandemic.
But that changed on May 26 President Joe Biden sensationally announced a review of the pandemic “lab leak” theory after allegedly shutting down a previous probe into its origins.
Meanwhile, British intelligence reportedly assessed the theory recently and upgraded the theory’s likeliness from “remote” to “feasible”, reports the Sunday Times.
Then, on Tuesday, came Fauci’s email dump.
More than 3,200 of his emails from January to June 2020 were obtained and published by Buzzfeed and the Washington Post.
Dr Li referred to one of these emails during her Newsmax interview.
On February 1 last year, at the start of the pandemic, Dr. Hugh Auchincloss, wrote in an email to Fauci that virus engineering experiments had been performed.
Dr Li said this backs up her assertion that coronavirus is a bioweapon and she alleged Dr Anthony Fauci was among the scientists and organizations who knew about it and tried to hide it.

In her March 31 report, Yan wrote: “SARS-CoV-2 was created based on template viruses ZC45 and ZXC21, which were originally discovered in bats by scientists of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA).
“The subsequent laboratory modifications had enabled its ability to infect humans as well as had enhanced the virus in its pathogenicity, transmissibility, and lethality.”
But an MIT peer review said the claims were not adequately proved and that the “work is defamatory, grossly negligent, and ethically dubious”.
Yan, a postdoctoral fellow at Hong Kong University before fleeing to the United States in April, explained in February to The Washington Post why she published on Zenodo.
