Speakers:
The preponderance of circumstantial evidence supports the hypothesis that an unintentional research-related incident initiated the COVID-19 pandemic. Meanwhile, the Chinese Communist Party refuses to release any of the data required to verify the alternate, zoonotic hypothesis. In April, the Republicans on the Senate HELP (Health, Environment, and Pensions) Committee released Muddy Waters, a report on the origins of COVID-19. The report, principally authored by Dr. Robert Kadlec and Dr. Robert Foster, examines the nexus of COVID-19 in unprecedented detail and looks systematically at China’s responsibility for the COVID-19 coverup.
Please join Hudson Senior Fellow David Asher for a conversation with Dr. Kadlec on the report’s findings.
