An anonymous World Health Organization source claims to have reviewed a coronavirus research grant application unearthed last month, confirmed that the language of a leaked research grant proposal obtained by DRASTIC suggests American and Chinese scientists planned to collaborate on the creation of a new coronavirus not found in nature.
“We will compile sequence/RNAseq data from a panel of closely related strains and compare full length genomes, scanning for unique SNPs representing sequencing errors,” the application states. “Consensus candidate genomes will be synthesized commercially using established techniques and genome-length RNA and electroporation to recover recombinant viruses.”
The grant was never approved, however, it provides further evidence that American and Chinese scientists were exploring the manipulation of existing viruses to make them more transmissible and/or dangerous as a kind of gain-in-function research.
The grant proposal was submitted to the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) in 2018 by the EcoHealth Alliance, an American research non-profit that planned to collaborate with Chinese scientists at the Wuhan Institute of Virology to create a new virus using the funding. It was obtained by the group DRASTIC just last month.

The WHO collaborator says could explain why a close match for Sars-CoV-2 has not yet been identified in nature despite a massive Chinese and international effort to do just that.
“This means that they would take various sequences from similar coronaviruses and create a new sequence that is essentially the average of them. It would be a new virus sequence, not a 100 percent match to anything.”
Dr. Anthony Fauci, who leads the NIH’s Institute of Allergies and Infectious Diseases, has repeatedly denied any research pursuits involving the creation of such viruses.
Earlier this year, the Wuhan Institute of Virology deleted its main database of samples and viral sequences months before the pandemic erupted, casting public doubt on the natural transmission theory.
