Ex-CDC Director: SARS-CoV-2 Engineered in North Carolina Lab in 2020

Nov 19, 2024, 12:23 PM

Former CDC Director Robert Redfield has made a startling claim that the SARS-CoV-2 virus, responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic, was 'intentionally engineered' in a North Carolina lab as part of a U.S. biodefense program during the Trump administration in 2020. This revelation comes years after Redfield was locked out of his Twitter account for suggesting a lab origin for the virus. The claim has sparked discussions about the possibility that China was wrongfully accused of developing the virus, with some suggesting that the U.S. government might have framed China. The comments have also raised questions about the involvement of Ralph Baric, a researcher at the University of North Carolina, in the virus's creation.
