Cables show State Dept. looked into COVID-19 lab leak cover-up

Now that multiple government agencies have said there’s a likelihood COVID-19 originated in a Chinese lab, the next logical question is, “who was part of the cover-up?” It turns out, that’s what the State Department wanted to know too, at least at one point.

The non-governmental organization (NGO) U.S Right to Know released State Department cables the NGO obtained under the Freedom of Information Act.

One cable from July of 2020 reads “Initial outbreak could have been contained in China if Beijing had not covered it up.”

Another cable asks the Chinese “Who ordered the cover-up?”

While China is believed to be the primary culprit behind the COVID-19 Chinese lab cover-up, the evidence shows Big Tech was involved as well. One of the fact-checkers at Facebook, which was notoriously censorious when it came to people posting about the lab leak, actually worked at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

The question of who covered up the lab leak comes as new details have been released about COVID-19’s patients zero. Ben Hu, Ping Yu and Yan Zhu were scientists at the institute who were doing gain of function experiments when they got sick in the fall of 2019.

According to Straight Arrow News’ exclusive Media Miss tool, the patients zero details have been mostly covered on the right. Only one source on the left and one source in the center have covered this story.

United States officials are still investigating the disease’s origins. The Chinese government has refused to allow any independent investigators to look into the accusations that COVID-19 originated at the institute. This has fueled international speculation and demands for transparency.
