Confirmed: Germany Knew About the Coronavirus Lab Leak

Confirmed: Germany Knew About the Coronavirus Lab Leak

And it helped cover it up.

Since 2020, German governments knew that the infamous coronavirus pandemic “likely” originated in a lab in China. This information was kept secret, and anyone who believed it was labeled a fool and silenced.

According to information published by Süddeutsche Zeitung and Zeit on March 12, the Federal Intelligence Service, bnd, informed two federal governments led by former German Chancellor Angela Merkel and current Chancellor Olaf Scholz that the coronavirus likely originated in a lab.

The bnd is said to have come to its conclusion through analyzing public data and material obtained through an intelligence operation code-named “Saaremaa.” This includes scientific data from the Wuhan Institute of Virology. In addition to evidence of gain-of-function experiments, the material is also said to show numerous breaches of laboratory safety regulations. The bnd concluded that the lab that engineered the virus and left an open door for it to escape was likely the source of the pandemic.

Many scientists came to the same conclusion, but their voices were suppressed.

The German government held a secret meeting with United States tech companies such as Facebook and Google to stop the spread of “fake news” in June 2020, the first summer of the pandemic. Bild revealed the details in an exclusive report published Jan. 25, 2023:

On June 2, 2020, the German Federal Ministry of the Interior (bmi) and the German Federal Press Office summoned the top lobbyists from Google and Facebook for confidential talks. The topic of the summit: “The coronavirus pandemic and the spread of misinformation, false information and disinformation observed in this context.” The aim of the meeting was to clarify “how the associated challenge can be fundamentally countered.”

At first it was believable that the German government suppressed what it truly believed to be misinformation. But now we know that Germany knew better. It knew more than almost anyone else—and did more than almost anyone else to suppress the truth.

German Fingerprints

Chancellor Merkel arrived in Wuhan on the afternoon of Sept. 7, 2019, along with a 25-member business delegation of German company ceos and journalists. The group visited the Sino-German Friendship Hospital at Optical Valley Branch of Tongji Hospital. At this same hospital, China treated some of the first coronavirus cases soon after Merkel’s visit.

Germany’s fingerprints are not only on the crime scene but also on the supposed cure: the vaccines that were injected into millions.

In 2018, Germany’s BioNTech entered cooperation with Pfizer, which prepared it to produce the first covid-19 vaccines. According to Bloomberg, the vaccine project was funded by the German government.

Germany also funded the organization pushing for lockdowns and vaccine rollouts: the World Health Organization. Germany’s contributions rose from $359.2 million in 2018–2019 to $1.3 billion in 2020–2021, making Germany the organization’s biggest supporter at the time. This support was crucial after United States President Donald Trump withdrew funding from the organization.

The Truth Suppressed

One of the virologists tasked with confirming the bnd’s suspicion was Christian Drosten—but he suppressed the discussion from the beginning.

In early 2020, Drosten discussed the origin of covid-19 with U.S. counterpart Anthony Fauci; as a result, the virus’s lab origins were covered up. While Trump spoke openly about a lab leak, the scientific community united against him, portraying him as an ignorant denier of science.

Die Welt wrote on July 2, 2021, that the virologists exchanged information by e-mail in January 2020. In a February meeting, they discussed the possibility of an artificial origin of sars-CoV-2 using genetic engineering methods. That month, Drosten signed a statement by international researchers that said: “We stand together to strongly condemn conspiracy theories suggesting that covid-19 does not have a natural origin.”

This cover-up is concerning because there is evidence the lab leak may have been planned.

The Timing

In his book America Under Attack, Trumpet editor in chief Gerald Flurry notes a significant role that former President Barack Obama and Dr. Fauci played in these events:

The day after Obama reauthorized gain-of-function research, Dr. Fauci gave a speech at Georgetown University about pandemic preparedness. In it, he basically predicted the covid-19 pandemic. “No matter what, history has told us definitively that [outbreaks] will happen, because [facing] infectious diseases is a perpetual challenge,” he said. “The thing we’re extraordinarily confident about is that we’re going to see this in the next few years.

Dr. Fauci was funding gain-of-function research in China while simultaneously warning the American people to brace for a pandemic. He never mentioned he was involved in the dangerous manipulation of bat coronaviruses to produce a potential pandemic pathogen, but he seemed to know that the world was heading into a serious infectious disease crisis. The fact that he said this a day after Obama reauthorized bioweapons research makes it even more suspicious.

It is hard to imagine Dr. Fauci had the ability to foresee the natural mutation of covid-19 in bats. However, it is entirely feasible he foresaw the research he funded would likely lead to a lab leak. It appears Germany, one of Donald Trump’s greatest critics, aided in covering up the story for the benefit of both America’s radical left and China. In his article “The Fauci Virus,” Trumpet executive editor Stephen Flurry explained:

Now we have even more documented proof that China was developing covid-19 as a weapon and that the deep state agents in the United States were helping them do so. covid-19 is a man-made plague engineered by radical leftists—on both sides of the Pacific Ocean. You would think that more people in America’s government would be suspicious of the Chinese Communist Party, but it is like the Prophet Isaiah foretold: “Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the Lord, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone away backward. Why should ye be stricken any more? ye will revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint. From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and putrifying sores: they have not been closed, neither bound up, neither mollified with ointment” (Isaiah 1:4-6).

Our world has trusted science as a god. Now we are seeing how corrupt the system truly is. To learn more about what happened behind the scenes of the coronavirus outbreak, read “The Fauci Virus.”
