.marcorubio keeps digging into the origins of COVID-19: 'It’s clear this pandemic started much sooner & much earlier than they have publicly disclosed, that its epicenter was... not just the Wuhan Institute of Virology but the Wuhan Institute of Health.'
“Clearly, there had already been concerns about the biosafety of those facilities within China, and then the alarms really start to get louder over the summer and into the fall of 2019, and then you have these things—is the fact that they take down their research and results on virology in the middle of the night in and of itself anything? No.
Rubio said the reason why the origins of COVID—and the Chinese cover-up of it all—reminds him of Chernobyl is that “totalitarian regimes do not reward bad news.” Rubio also said Western counterparts—he specifically named Dr. Anthony Fauci as one—were working “in cooperation with” the Chinese to silence anyone who raised questions about the lab in Wuhan.
“That’s why you see a guy like Fauci out there for months effectively trying to silence for months,” he continued.
Researcher Shi Zhengli, known as the “bat lady,” works in her lab at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in Wuhan, China on May 24, 2020. A migrant worker has his temperature taken on February 25, 2020, outside a factory in Zouping, in China’s Shandong province. “So, if you have all these people coming back after visiting China—a place where by now this thing is probably spreading like wildfire, and they’re bringing it back over with them, it’s only logical,” he added.
Security personnel stand guard outside the Wuhan Institute of Virology in Wuhan, China, on February 3, 2021. “It’s more efficient to buy medicine from China,” Rubio said. “They do it cheaper because it’s subsidized, and they have cheaper labor. But is it in our national interest to depend on China for our medicine or rare earth minerals or electronics or anything else? The answer is no, it isn’t. That’s what you’re starting to get.
