And above pieces are best to be read along with this piece penned by the Bulgarian investigative journalist, Dilyana Gaytandzhieva, as below. Note about the role of the US organization (contractor)
Eco Health Alliance throughout the article. I believe the Wuhan Lab was deliberately trapped and implicated by the seemingly benign. innocent few-million-dollar subcontract business deal through a delicate plot. Read on this Dilyana piece, it is a very good "linking piece" to many great articles on this subject incl. those authored by Ron Unz posted under the "
" series at the UNZ Review website (which I posted earlier in this thread).
Project G-2101: Pentagon biolab discovered MERS and SARS-like coronaviruses in bats
Two years ago, I investigated an alleged laboratory accident at the Lugar Center, the
Pentagon biolaboratory in Georgia’s capital Tbilisi. The death cases were hidden by the local authorities but I recorded on camera witnesses who testified about this tragic incident.
However, what then seemed to me to be a local issue, turned out to be
part of a BIGGER STORY. The Lugar Center [named after the late U.S. Senator Richard Lugar (R)] in Georgia is just one of the many Pentagon biolaboratories in 25 countries across the world. They are funded by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) under a 2.1 BILLION dollars military program --
Cooperative Biological Engagement Program (CBEP), and are located in former Soviet Union countries such as Georgia and Ukraine, the Middle East, South East Asia and Africa.
Much of their work is classified and includes projects on bio-agents and pathogens with pandemic potential.
GENETIC STUDY ON BATS
The Lugar Center, a $161 million Pentagon-funded biolaboratory in Georgia’s capital Tbilisi, discovered coronaviruses in bats with presumably pandemic potential as early as 2014, documents have revealed.
Furthermore, in 2017 the Pentagon launched a $6.5 million program in cooperation with the Lugar Center involving
genetic studies on coronaviruses in 5,000 bats collected in Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Turkey and Jordan.
Coincidentally, the same Pentagon contractor tasked with the US DoD bat-research program –
Eco Health Alliance, USA, also collected bats and isolated coronaviruses along with Chinese scientists at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Eco Health Alliance received a $3.7 million grant from the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) to collect and study coronaviruses in bats in China from 2014 to 2019.
NOVEL CORONAVIRUSES
The Lugar Center sparked controversy about possible dual-use research in 2018 when leaked documents revealed that US diplomats in Georgia were involved in trafficking of frozen human blood and pathogens for a secret military program.

And another brief article by the Bulgarian investigative journalist, Dilyana Gaytandzhieva:
Pentagon Biolaboratories In 25 Countries
The US Army regularly produces deadly viruses, bacteria and toxins in direct violation of the UN Convention on the prohibition of Biological Weapons. Hundreds of thousands of unwitting people are systematically exposed to dangerous pathogens and other incurable diseases.
Bio warfare scientists using diplomatic cover test man-made viruses
at Pentagon bio laboratories in 25 countries across the world. These US bio-laboratories are funded by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) under a 2.1 billion dollars military program --
Cooperative Biological Engagement Program (CBEP), and are located in former Soviet Union countries such as Georgia and Ukraine, the Middle East, South East Asia and Africa.
