Summary:
From the first television newscast describing a SARS-like flu affecting a distant Chinese metropolis, she began to ask key questions: Was SARS-CoV-2 something that came from nature, as leading scientists insisted? Or a lab? Why was Wuhan, the Chicago of China, the pandemic's ground zero? Why were governments so slow to respond? Who is Shi Zhengli, Wuhan's "Bat Woman"? What light did her experiments shed on the pandemic's origin? Who are Xiangguo Qiu and Keding Cheng, and what is their connection to the Wuhan Institute of Virology? Why were they marched out of Winnipeg's National Microbiology Laboratory by the RCMP? What role did controversial gain-of-function experiments play in the development of SARS-CoV-2? Why is the government of China refusing to cooperate with the WHO as it tries to get to the bottom of things? Who, or what, is D.R.A.S.T.I.C.? Reading the science, following the money, connecting the geopolitical interests to the spin, Dewar shows you how leading science journals got it wrong leaving it to interested citizens and junior scientists to pull out the truth.
