Corona virus is suspected of being a laboratory product, related to China's biological warfare program

This is a question posed by an expert on biological weapons from Israel, involving two biological laboratories working with SARS and MERS viruses in Wuhan City.

Pandemic pneumonia in Wuhan due to Corona virus 2019-nCov is shaking China and the world public. Up to now, the disease has killed at least 41 people, 1391 confirmed cases of infection in the world (mainly still in China), and the number is likely not to stop.

According to experts, the source of the virus outbreak came from a seafood market named Hoa Nam in Wuhan. Recently, however, some experts believe that the virus may have come from a laboratory in Wuhan, and may even be related to the country's biological weapons research programs.

The Virus Research Institute in Wuhan is located about 32 kilometers from the South China market.

This is the opinion of Dany Shoham - a former Israeli military intelligence officer, an expert on biological weapons in an interview with the Washington Times. He said that the viral laboratories at the Wuhan National Biosafety Institute (WNBL) are the source of a worrying epidemic in China.

"Some labs in the institute are probably involved in the research and development of biological weapons," Shoham said. The study of biological weapons is part of civilian-military research facilities, and is definitely "top secret," he said.

Shoham is an expert on biological weapons, holding a doctorate in microbiological medicine. In the period 1970-1991, he was an adviser to the Israeli army on biochemical weapons in the Middle East and globally, holding the rank of lieutenant colonel.

WNBL is also the only place in China allowed to study dangerous coronavirus strains.

Of course this is just a suspicion, but in fact, WNBL is also the only place in China allowed to study dangerous strains of Coronavirus. Built in 2015, the WNBL laboratory in Wuhan was officially launched two years later, targeting extremely dangerous viruses such as SARS, MERS and Ebola. There are also H5N1, Japanese encephalitis viruses, dengue fever .

According to the press release, WNBL was built as part of a collaboration between China and France, to prevent and control new infectious diseases. It has established a very high biosecurity standard, is considered a pathogen collection center and a UN reference laboratory for infectious diseases.

"Corona viruses (Coronaviruses) such as SARS have been studied at WNBL, and may be part of the biological weapons program," Shoham said.

"Theoretically, a virus could be leaked if the careless specialist, or the person in the room was infected, then went out without knowing it. That could be the cause in Wuhan, but There is currently no evidence to show that. "

In fact, even though the WNBL lab is world-class safe, U.S. biosecurity expert Tim Trevan once warned of the potential for a virus to leak from here in 2017 - a time when The point it came into operation. According to an interview on Nature, the SARS virus has also "escaped" several times from laboratories in Beijing, but fortunately did not cause serious consequences.
