WHO Chief Says Lab Leak Theory Remains “Open” as G7 Leaders Discuss Covid Origins

by Michael Curzon
12 June 2021 9:19 PM

G7 leaders discussed the origins of Covid on Saturday as the Chief of the World Health Organisation (WHO) said that all hypotheses – including the lab leak theory – remain “open”. Sky News has the story.

At their summit in Cornwall on Saturday, G7 leaders were joined by Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the WHO’s Director General, during their talks on the Covid crisis and efforts to avoid future pandemics.

The WHO Chief set the world’s leading democracies the challenge of vaccinating 70% of the global population against Covid by the time of the G7’s next summit in Germany next year.

And, speaking to reporters at a briefing after the leaders’ discussions, Dr Tedros confirmed the subject of the Covid outbreak was raised at the Cornwall summit.

Last month, U.S. President Joe Biden ordered intelligence officials to “redouble” efforts to investigate the origins of the coronavirus pandemic, including the theory that it came from a laboratory in China.

Referring to the millions around the world who have died due to Covid, Dr Tedros said: “This is very tragic and I think the respect these people deserve is knowing what the origin of this virus is, so we can prevent it from happening again.”

Dr Tedros confirmed the WHO was preparing for the second phase of its investigation into the origins of Covid, which he said would need “transparency” and the “cooperation” of China.

“We believe that all hypotheses should be open and we need to proceed with the second phase to really know the origins,” he said.

Worth reading in full.

“The WHO Chief set the world’s leading democracies the challenge of vaccinating 70% of the global population…by the time of…the next summit…next year.”

Well that’s cleared up where Bozo is getting his orders from. It also confirms how seriously dangerous the WHO is.

Our so called democracy is laid bare.

We really are in the deep doo doo.

70% of the global population of 7.8 billion is about 5.5 billion. If they could just get to 94% they could get the human population down to 500 million like the standing stones advise.

The G7 discussions are just to create the appearance of decision-making. The real decisions will have been made long ago.

Yes, it’s just a party for them on our money. No social distancing or masks but a few weeks ago the Queen had to do both at her husband’s funeral. What’s changed then?

It’s a preposterous conspiracy theory to suggest the virus might have come from a laboratory that experiments with dangerous viruses. It’s far more plausible that it appeared spontaneously in a market just a stone’s throw from said laboratory.

So this little pretend medical Marxist terrorist is addessing this irrevelent gathering being organised by a Chinese Communist puppet US pretend senile president, hosted by a pretend Conservative
Meanwhile up here the pretend Scottish government have a dentist as their chief medical advisor on this Wuhan flu and have now added a wee women get to give us gender balance presumably.
You could not make it up.
As stated on another thread (babalon bee) the idiots who have wrecked the world are now having a meeting telling us how they are going to fix it.

I am losing patience with the lack of real reporting in this country. The information coming out in USA. Switzerland beginning to stop vaccine rollout, India pulling back on Astrazenica. There is so much not being reported in this country.

The G7 pictures were an utter disgrace. Scruffy people ignoring the restrictions they enforce on us. All looking very guilty as they fawn over a senile old man who is destroying American jobs whilst supporting Chyna. When will we wake up. The window is closing fast

It comes as Sir David Attenborough warned that humans could be “on the verge of destabilising the entire planet”.

Very insightful David……this point has escaped you up until now has it? Prior to COVID you could’nt switch your telly on without seeing someone, (rightly), telling you that the oceans were uneccessarily filled with excess plastic, harmful to aquatic life.

Over the past 15 months, when millions of people have been discarding pointles masks into the environment on a daily basis, causing god knows what environmental damage, not a single peep from any of the usual suspects on the matter.

The hypocrisy is sickening.

Quite!

I wonder what will be the effect of millions pissing spike proteins into the water supply too, along with all the drugs and plasticisers etc.
