Google Funded a Leading 'Lab Leak' Denier.

Google funded research conducted by a leading signatory of the controversial Lancet journal letter, which prematurely dismissed the theory that COVID-19 originated at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, The National Pulse can reveal.

The unearthed financial ties between EcoHealth Alliance and Google follow months of big tech censorship of stories and individuals in support of the COVID-19 "Lab leak" theory, especially on Google subsidiaries such as YouTube.

The Google-backed researcher, Charles Calisher, played a critical role in the cover-up of COVID-19's origins through his involvement with a February 2020 Lancet statement - which concluded that COVID-19 occurred naturally, in animals.

Charles Calisher - professor of microbiology at Colorado State University and the top of nearly 30 individuals who signed the Lancet letter - received funding from Google.org, the philanthropic arm of the tech behemoth, for a paper from June 2011 published in the Journal of Clinical Microbiology.

The study discloses that it was "Supported by Google.org" in addition to funds from the National Institutes of Health and United States Agency for International Development"Charles H. Calisher was supported by Google.org," clarifies the funding section.

The revelation comes amidst unearthed ties between another Lancet statement signatory and prominent "Lab leak" denier Peter Daszak and Google.org.

Internal emails from Calisher obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request also show that Calisher privately telling colleagues that it was impossible to "Definitively state that the virus could not possibly have come from that lab."
