State Dept. officials told not to investigate Wuhan lab leak theory even as evidence piled up early on

The report detailed how staffers were warned about investigating the Wuhan lab leak theory because it could "Open a can of worms." Officials like Thomas Dinanno, the former acting assistant secretary to Arm's Control, Verification and Compliance at the State Department, said those warnings smelled like a cover-up.

In a January 9 report, Dinnano described apprehension and contempt from State Department technical staff along with a lack of response to briefings and presentations on the lab leak topic.

The Vanity Fair report also mentioned four other State Department employees who were warned against investigating the lab leak theory because it could "Open Pandora's box."

Another revelation goes back to December of last year when some State Department employees received classified intelligence on three Wuhan Institute of Virology staffers who fell sick in December of 2019.

This suspicious activity and awkward reluctance by many high level bureaucrats to investigate the lab leak hypothesis raises a lot of questions.

In the newly released #FauciEmails, Dr. Fauci thanked EcoHealth Alliance President Peter Daszak for his "Kind note" that praised him for downplaying the lab leak theory.

Needless to say, the constant dismissal of the coronavirus lab leak theory and the subsequent silencing of those looking into the matter is creating a lot more questions than answers.
