Scientists stop gray hair formation!

New Findings Strengthen the Lab-Leak Hypothesis

A recent investigation by the White Coat Waste Project (WCW) has uncovered new evidence linking U.S. government funding to Ben Hu, the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) researcher now identified as “Patient Zero”—the first known person to fall ill with COVID-19.

Newly-leaked U.S. intelligence, combined with a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) investigation led by WCW, suggests that Hu and his colleagues at the Wuhan Lab were working on dangerous gain-of-function research on coronaviruses—experiments that were partially funded by American taxpayers through grants from the National Institutes of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).

Connecting the Dots: U.S. Tax Dollars and Wuhan’s Risky Research

Since 2019, WCW has followed the money trail leading to China’s Wuhan Lab, exposing how U.S. taxpayer funds were funneled into reckless animal experiments. In 2021, a FOIA lawsuit filed by WCW revealed official receipts proving that the U.S. government was funding Ben Hu’s gain-of-function research on bat coronaviruses.

Now, a newly-leaked U.S. intelligence report identifies Hu as the first known individual to contract COVID-19 at the Wuhan Lab—further solidifying the lab-leak theory.

What Do the Documents Reveal?

• Ben Hu, now confirmed as “Patient Zero,” was the lead scientist conducting high-risk gain-of-function experiments on coronaviruses at the Wuhan Lab.
• The U.S. government allocated over $41 million in taxpayer funds to the lab through NIAID and USAID grants.
• Federal accounting records confirm that Hu was a primary recipient of these grants, despite U.S. policies restricting gain-of-function research.
• In November 2019, Hu and two other Wuhan researchers—Yu Ping and Yan Zhu—became severely ill with COVID-like symptoms, months before China publicly acknowledged the outbreak.
• Reports indicate that one Wuhan researcher’s wife died in December 2019 from a mysterious respiratory illness resembling COVID-19.

Without WCW’s investigation, Hu’s research would have continued receiving U.S. taxpayer funding until 2024. However, due to public pressure and congressional scrutiny, WCW helped terminate these grants in early 2020.

Why This Matters: A Cover-Up Exposed

The revelations expose a disturbing chain of events:

1. U.S. tax dollars funded Wuhan Lab researchers, including Hu, to conduct high-risk experiments on bat coronaviruses.
2. Ben Hu and his colleagues became sick with a COVID-like illness in late 2019, months before the official outbreak was reported.
3. Their identities and medical histories were kept secret by both the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and U.S. authorities.
4. Leaked intelligence and FOIA documents now confirm their involvement in taxpayer-funded gain-of-function experiments.

A Growing Consensus on the Lab-Leak Theory

For years, government agencies and media outlets dismissed the lab-leak theory as a conspiracy. However, scientific experts, intelligence agencies, and most Americans now recognize that COVID-19 likely originated from a Wuhan laboratory accident.

Even the U.S. State Department acknowledged in January 2021 that Wuhan researchers involved in coronavirus experiments were hospitalized in late 2019 with symptoms resembling COVID-19.

With the latest intelligence confirming their identities and funding sources, the pieces of the puzzle are coming together.

What Happens Next?

Next week, the Biden Administration is expected to declassify additional intelligence on COVID-19’s origins. Meanwhile, WCW continues to work with lawmakers, including Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS), to ensure that U.S. tax dollars never again fund dangerous gain-of-function research—especially in foreign labs with questionable safety practices.

The Fight to End Wasteful and Dangerous Research

WCW is committed to exposing reckless government spending on risky animal experiments. From investigating Dr. Fauci’s controversial Beagle experiments (#BeagleGate) to tracking U.S. taxpayer funding of the Wuhan Lab’s coronavirus research, WCW is leading the charge to defund wasteful and dangerous government projects.

Take Action

Tesla released a new RoboTaxi Self Cleaning robot – it has humor too!
This means that the Robotaxi network will run 24/7.

If you step out of a bar at 2 a.m. and a dirty car pulls up, you’ll probably refuse it and wait for the next one—something that could take a few extra minutes in a city like San Francisco.

That dirty vehicle will then head to a cleaning center where it will be vacuumed. If something worse has happened, like someone vomiting in the car, it might need to wait for a human team to clean or fix it—like if someone slashed the seats.

The robot will make the call on whether the vehicle is ready to go back into service.
This is a glimpse into the engineering behind making every ride exceptional.

Once again, Elon Musk is way ahead of the curve!

David Goyer, the renowned filmmaker behind the Blade trilogy, The Dark Knight, and Apple TV’s Foundation series, announced his latest project on Friday – a futuristic blockchain-driven universe named Emergence. Set to be a vast transmedia endeavor, Emergence will explore themes of spaceships, relic-hunting, and white holes, all housed within Incention, Goyer’s innovative blockchain platform.

During a panel discussion at CoinDesk’s Consensus conference in Toronto, Goyer was joined by SY Lee of Story Protocol, the blockchain platform underpinning Incention and Emergence. Goyer highlighted his vision for Incention, emphasizing the platform’s unique ability to engage fans in co-creating the Emergence universe alongside professional storytellers.

In contrast to traditional Hollywood practices, Goyer criticized the industry for its “top-down” approach to intellectual property development, advocating for a more inclusive and adaptive model. With the launch of Story Protocol in 2023, which has secured over $80 million in funding from notable backers such as a16z, Hashed, and Endeavor, creators now have access to tools for registering, tracking, and monetizing IP on the blockchain.

Goyer’s meticulous planning for Emergence involved crafting a comprehensive 2,500-page story bible, which served as the foundation for engaging concept artists and award-winning science fiction authors. This content also shaped an AI agent named “Atlas,” enabling contributors to collaborate within a defined narrative framework.

Visitors to the Emergence platform can explore existing characters and settings or unleash their creativity by generating new content. User-generated stories and visuals can be upvoted by the community, leading to selection by an editorial board chaired by Goyer, determining which submissions become part of the official canon.

Despite concerns surrounding the impact of AI and blockchain on creative industries, Goyer remains optimistic about leveraging these technologies to empower artists. By actively engaging with emerging trends like AI, Web3, and blockchain, Goyer aims to guide the evolution of these tools in ways that benefit creators like himself.

In his closing remarks, Goyer emphasized the inevitability of a tokenized world and his commitment to harnessing technology to support and amplify creative endeavors. Far from fearing job displacement and commodification, Goyer sees an opportunity to shape a future where artists thrive within a digital landscape.
