The Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV; Chinese: 中国科学院武汉病毒研究所; pinyin: Zhōngguó Kēxuéyuàn Wǔhàn Bìngdú Yánjiūsuǒ) is a research institute on virology  that handles investigation of viruses. It is administered by the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). Located in Jiangxia District, Wuhan, Hubei, it opened mainland China’s first biosafety level 4 (BSL–4) laboratory in 2015. During the 2019-20 coronavirus pandemic, facts, events, rumours and conspiracy theories were raised about the safety of research conducted on bat coronaviruses in Wuhan.

According to an April 2020 opinion piece by Josh Rogin in the Washington Post, (HERE), U.S. officials sent to the WIV in 2018 had dispatched two diplomatic cables back to Washington which “warned about safety and management weaknesses at the WIV lab” and “also warns that the lab’s work on bat coronaviruses and their potential human transmission represented a risk of a new SARS-like pandemic….

“Two years before the novel coronavirus pandemic upended the world, U.S. Embassy officials visited a Chinese research facility in the city of Wuhan several times and sent two official warnings back to Washington about inadequate safety at the lab, which was conducting risky studies on coronaviruses from bats. The cables have fueled discussions inside the U.S. government about whether this or another Wuhan lab was the source of the virus….. To Repeat:

**** Instead of only investigating Hunter Biden’s payments from the Ukraine Government, America via President Trump needs to investigate The Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV). The United Nations should also investigate The Wuhan Institute of Virology. ASAP… Do It NOW!
