Pentagon Secretly Awarded ‘COVID-19 Research’ Contract to Ukraine 3 Months Before Pandemic Existed

Fact checked
April 18, 2022 Sean Adl-Tabatabai

The United States Department of Defence (DOD) awarded a contract to a bio-lab in Ukraine for “COVID-19 Research” on the 12th November 2019 – three months before the pandemic officially existed.

According to newly released documents, the contract awarded to Labyrinth Global Health INC was part of a secretive ‘Biological threat reduction program in Ukraine’.

Coincidentally, Labyrinth Global Health has been collaborating with Peter Daszak’s EcoHealth Alliance, and Ernest Wolfe’s Metabiota since its formation in 2017.



Dailyexpose.uk reports: The Government of the United States has a website called ‘USA Spending‘, an official open data source of federal spending information. According to the site as of 12th April 2021 the US Government has spent a mind-blowing $3.63 trillion “in response to COVID-19”. But that’s not the only information on Covid that can be found within the site.



Hidden within the ‘Award Search’ are details on a contract awarded by the Department of Defense to a company named ‘Black & Veatch Special Projects Corp‘, which is allegedly “a global engineering, procurement, consulting and construction company specialising in infrastructure development”.

The contract was awarded on September 20th, 2012 and is described as “Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services”. Obviously this is very vague and most likely of little interest to anyone who happens to stumble across it. But there is something contained deep within the details that should be of interest to anyone and everyone.

The ‘Award History’ for the contract contains a tab for ‘Sub-Awards’ detailing the recipients, action date, amount, and very brief description for 115 Sub-Award transactions. Most of the Sub-Awards are extremely mundane for things such as “laboratory equipment for Kyiv”, or “office furniture for Kyiv”.



But there is one Sub-Award that stands out among the rest, and it is was awarded to Labyrinth Global Health INC for “SME Manuscript Documentation and COVID-19 Research”.

An award for Covid-19 research isn’t exactly shocking when the world is allegedly in the grip of a Covid-19 pandemic, but considering the fact the sub-contract was awarded 12th November 2019, at least one month before the alleged emergence of the novel coronavirus, and three months before it was officially dubbed Covid-19, the award for Covid-19 research should come as a shock to everyone.



But the shock doesn’t end there, because the place the contract for Covid-19 research was instructed to take place was Ukraine, as was the entire contract awarded by the DOD to Black & Veatch Special Projects Corp.



...

Whilst the details are vague, the US Government site also reveals that $21.7 million of the $116.6 million contract was spent on a ‘Biological threat reduction program in Ukraine’.



Why did the Department of Defense pay a company that is allegedly “a global engineering, procurement, consulting and construction company specialising in infrastructure development”, to help implement a “Biological threat reduction program in Ukraine’?

And why did both the DOD and said company then pay Labyrinth Global Health INC to carry out COVID-19 research in Ukraine at least one month before the alleged emergence of the novel coronavirus, and three months before it was officially dubbed Covid-19?

Founded in 2017, Labyrinth Global Health is allegedly a “women-owned small business with deep expertise and a proven track record supporting initiatives for scientific and medical advancement.”

They describe themselves as “a multicultural and international organization with offices in four countries and a team of experts with diverse backgrounds and competencies, including microbiology, virology, global health, emerging infectious disease nursing, medical anthropology, field epidemiology, clinical research, and health information systems.”

One of those offices just happens to be located in Kyiv, Ukraine, which the company dubs “a gateway to Eastern Europe”.

...

But who are the partners that Dr Karen Saylors and Labyrinth Global Health choose to work with? They are none other than the ‘Eco Health Alliance’ and ‘Metabiota’.

Dr Karen Saylors, Eco Health Alliance and Metabiota worked together on the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) ‘PREDICT’ program from 2009, while Labyrinth Global Health worked alongside EHA and Metabiota on the PREDICT program from 2017.

Launched in 2009 and funded by USAID, PREDICT was an early warning system for new and emerging diseases in 21 countries. It was led by the University of California’s (“UC”) Davis One Health Institute and core partners included EcoHealth Alliance (“EHA”), Metabiota, Wildlife Conservation Society, and Smithsonian Institution, and as we’ve just revealed; Labyrinth Global Health. PREDICT was a forerunner of the more ambitious Global Virome Project.

The USAID describes PREDICT as having made “significant contributions to strengthening global surveillance and laboratory diagnostic capabilities for both known and newly discovered viruses within several important virus groups, such as filoviruses (including ebolaviruses), influenza viruses, paramyxoviruses, and coronaviruses“.

Here’s one of the many studies published by Eco Health Alliance, Metabiota and Labyrinth Global Health proving the connection –



PREDICT partnered with the non-profit Eco Health Alliance (EHA) to carry out its 9-year effort to catalogue hundreds of thousands of biological samples, “including over 10,000 bats.” A PREDICT-funded 2015 study on “diversity of coronavirus in bats” also included Peter Daszak, president of EHA, among its participants.

Eco Health Alliance is listed as a partner of the Wuhan Institute of Virology (“WIV”) on archived pages of its website and was mentioned as a one of the institute’s “strategic partners” by the WIV’s Deputy Director General in 2018.

Notably, the relationship between the WIV and the American Biodefence establishment was advanced by EHA policy advisor, David R. Franz, former commander at US bioweapons lab at Fort Detrick.

WIV’s Dr. Shi Zhengli, a.k.a. “Batwoman,” had also worked with EHA’s Daszak on bat-related studies. As far back as 2005, Daszak and Zhengli were conducting research on SARS-like coronaviruses in bats. Several PREDICT-funded studies on SARS-like coronaviruses and Swine Flu count with both Zhengli’s and Daszak’s contributions. Perhaps the most noteworthy of these is a 2015 PREDICT and NIH-funded study she co-authored entitled: ‘A SARS-like cluster of circulating bat coronaviruses shows potential for human emergence’.

Meanwhile, Nathan Wolfe is the founder of Metabiota and non-profit Global Viral. He spent over eight years conducting biomedical research in both sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia. Unsurprisingly, Wolfe is a World Economic Forum Young Global Leader. More notably, since 2008 he had been a member of DARPA’s DSRC, Defence Science Research Council, until it was disbanded.

All of these people and organisations have been working for at least the last decade studying coronaviruses and helping to set up Biolabs in Ukraine. All using US Department of Defense funds to do so.



Putting the biolabs in Ukraine to one side for now, let’s return to the subject of Covid-19. If the US Government was funding Covid-19 research before Covid-19 was publicly known to exist then this suggests they either knew Covid-19 existed naturally, or they were involved in constructing this virus in a lab.

But if the contract evidence isn’t enough for you to come to this conclusion (it should be), then perhaps coupling it with evidence that the US National Institute of Allergy & Infectious Diseases’ (NIAID), and Moderna had a coronavirus candidate in December 2019 will be.

A confidentially agreement which can be viewed here, states that providers ‘Moderna’ alongside the ‘National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases’ (NIAID) agreed to tranfer ‘mRNA coronavirus vaccine candidates’ developed and jointly-owned by NIAID and Moderna to recipients ‘The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill’ on the 12th December 2019.



The material transfer agreement was signed the December 12th 2019 by Ralph Baric, PhD, at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and then signed by Jacqueline Quay, Director of Licensing and Innovation Support at the University of North Carolina on December 16th 2019.



The agreement was also signed by two representatives of the NIAID, one of whom was Amy F. Petrik PhD, a technology transfer specialist who signed the agreement on December 12th 2019 at 8:05 am. The other signatory was Barney Graham MD PhD, an investigator for the NIAID, however this signature was not dated.

The final signatories on the agreement were Sunny Himansu, Moderna’s Investigator, and Shaun Ryan, Moderna’s Deputy General Councel. Both signautres were made on December 17th 2019.


...

All of these signatures were made prior to any knowledge of the alleged emergence of the novel coronavirus. It wasn’t until December 31st 2019 that the World Health Organisation (WHO) became aware of an alleged cluster of viral pneumonia cases in Wuhan, China. But even at this point they had not determined that an alleged new coronavirus was to blame, instead stating the pneumonia was of “unknown cause”.



All of this requires much further research to fit all of the pieces of the puzzle together, but here’s what we definitely know so far –

A novel coronavirus emerged in Wuhan in December 2019.

The world did not get to hear about this novel coronavirus until early January 2020.

The world did not know this novel coronavirus was called Covid-19 until February 2020, when the World Health Organization officially named it so.

The US Department of Defense awarded a contract for Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services to Black & Veatch Special Projects Corp‘, which is allegedly “a global engineering, procurement, consulting and construction company specialising in infrastructure development”.

That contract involved a Biological threat reduction program in Ukraine.

As part of this larger contract, another contract was awarded to Labyrinth Global Health for ‘COVID-19 Research’ on 12th November 2019.

This was awarded at least one month before the alleged emergence of the novel coronavirus, and three months before it was officially dubbed Covid-19.

Labyrinth Global Health works alongside the ‘Eco Health Alliance’, and ‘Metabiota’, and participated in the USAID PREDICT program. All of these people and organisations have been working for at least the past decade studying coronaviruses and helping to set up Biolabs in Ukraine. All using US Department of Defense funds to do so.

Information found here points to Eco Health Alliance having a hand in creating the Covid-19 virus.

Information found here points to Moderna having a hand in creating the Covid-19 virus.

‘Moderna’, alongside the ‘National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases’ (NIAID) agreed to transfer ‘mRNA coronavirus vaccine candidates’ developed and jointly-owned by NIAID and Moderna, to recipients ‘The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill’ on the 12th December 2019.

What does all this point to? That’s for you to ponder and decide. But we promise you there is much more to come on the above…

Countries that took the severe route to stem the virus might want to look at the evidence found in a little-known 2021 report by the Kaiser Family Foundation. The researchers found that among 11 wealthy peer nations, Sweden was the only one with no excess mortality among individuals under 75. None, zero, zip.

Documents confirm Canada’s plan to use COVID as leverage for World Economic Forum agenda

...Multiple prominent Canadian political figures, including Conservative Party leadership candidate Pierre Poilievre, have raised concerns about the ties Liberal Party Cabinet members, including Freeland, have to the WEF, and what these ties mean for the future of the country.

“ … the World Economic Forum, which the finance minister [Freeland] joins, which says that in 2030 … “You will own nothing and you will love it … That is the agenda of these people,” Poilievre said.

“Maybe that’s why over the last year they have done everything in their power to make housing completely unaffordable, so nobody can afford it except them … ” Poilievre added in his statement.

In an op-ed for the mainstream National Post, economic and international relations expert Rupa Subramanya wrote that “Chrystia Freeland’s side gig with the WEF is endangering Canadian democracy,” adding, “There’s no need to invent conspiracy theories. The attempt by global elites to subvert local democracy is fully on and in plain view.”

COVID Requiem Aeternam

For the souls that suffered COVID, authoritarian government interventions, and the unsafe and ineffective vaccines.

Expectations

COVID deaths and cumulative excess mortality should begin to trend lower after the initial COVID outbreaks due to:

* Deaths being brought forward from later periods;
* Depleted vulnerable population;
* Greater protective herd immunity;
* Attenuation of the virus;
* Better treatments.

The Vaccine Hypothesis

The vaccine is claimed to be substantially effective in reducing COVID mortality and also to be safe. If these claims are true, we should expect even fewer deaths than expected above due to significantly lower COVID deaths and insignificant vaccine deaths.

Empirical Results

The COVID death rate is higher after mass vaccinations.

There is a discernible reduction in the rate of COVID deaths in just 38 out of the 202 countries studied (19%). Therefore, in the vast majority of countries, both the rate and the number of COVID deaths after vaccination programs is higher than before.



In fact, the COVID death rate (deaths per million per day world average) rises from 1.4 to 2.0 after mass vaccinations begin, an increase of 42%. Confounders be damned!

Pay close attention to Australia, Brazil, Brunei, Cambodia, Cayman Islands, Costa Rica, Cuba, Cyprus, Estonia, Faroe Islands, Fiji, Finland, Greece, Greenland, Guyana, Hungary, Iceland, Indonesia, Isle of Man, Japan, Laos, Latvia, Malaysia, Maldives, Mauritius, Monaco, Mongolia, Nepal, New Zealand, Norway, Philippines, Rwanda, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Seychelles, Singapore, South Korea, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand, Timor, Turks and Caicos, UAE, Uruguay, Venezuela, Vietnam, and Wallis and Fortuna to see what happens when you aggressively vaccinate a naïve population, especially in the middle of an outbreak.

All-cause excess mortality rates are higher after mass vaccinations.

In 69% of the countries that report all-cause mortality (70 out of 101), the rate of cumulative excess mortality is higher after COVID vaccination programs. In not one single country is cumulative excess mortality lower than it was at the time mass vaccination programs began.



In fact, the excess death rate (deaths per million per day world average) rises from 3.1 to 4.1 after mass vaccinations begin, an increase of 33%.

The rate of increase in COVID mortality appears to be positively correlated with the vaccination rate. In other words, those countries that have lower vaccination rates (e.g. numerous African countries) also have lower increases in COVID mortality. Conversely, those countries that vaccinated early and aggressively (e.g. Europe, North America and Israel) have suffered comparatively worse.



Incidentally, it also seems that those countries with lower vaccination rates also had lower COVID mortality rates prior to vaccination campaigns, possibly indicative of having fewer interventions.



Nevertheless, the rate of increase in the COVID death rate after mass vaccinations is also positively correlated with the vaccination rate.



Conclusion

The “safe and effective” vaccine hypothesis is rejected.

In fact, according to the evidence, the more obvious conclusion is that the COVID vaccine has caused more death, not less, so much more in fact, that it has actually wiped out the expected natural declines and caused yet more death still.

The signal is significant in terms of temporal proximity and consistency across countries regardless of geography and demographics.

Applying the Bradford Hill criteria:

* Strength of association - vaccinated (richer) countries have relatively more COVID death than less vaccinated (poorer) countries.
* Consistency across countries and continents.
* Specificity - the vaccine kills people.
* Temporality is observed in a significant number of countries, especially those vaccinating aggressively in the middle of outbreaks.
* Biological gradient - there is an evident positive correlation between vaccination rate and COVID death rate and increase in COVID death rate.
* Biological plausibility - the 2-week period of immunosuppression immediately post injection has been very widely observed and reported, as have the plethora of fatal adverse events. The evidence suggesting that variants are spawned due to unnatural selection is also growing.
* Coherence - we get the same information from analyses of vaccine adverse event reporting systems, hospital records, national surveillance systems, and even the vaccine trial data itself (albeit hidden in the data appendices).
* Experiment - the entire world has been subjected to a massive clinical trial without consent. Fortunately, different countries had different rates of vaccine uptake so comparative study has been possible to demonstrate causality, especially between countries with similar geographic and demographic qualities.
* Analogy - Marek’s chickens (1970).

This is a global public health failure of truly unprecedented and epic proportions.

As vaccine failure becomes more and more proven, it's time to pivot to "nothing to see here": Fauci claims we are now "out of the pandemic phase"

in his 12,343rd interview of the pandemic, flip flop fauci comes to spin yet another yarn. this time, just for variety’s sake, he actually begins with something that might be true, at least in part.



but, being tony, he rapidly forays into falsehood and grandiose claims of having saved the day.

predominantly, he hypes the role of vaccines and plays up the temporary nature of natural immunity. this appears to be a part of a suddenly unified edifice of unfounded claims that “vaccinated immunity outperforms natural/recovered immunity.”

it’s suddenly popping up everywhere.



color me cynical, but this has, over the last 2 years, been an excellent predictor of problems about to emerge into the collective consciousness.

this got me interested because these claims are, of course, total bunk and yet another example of “fact checking as captured talking point pushing”.

the evidence is overwhelming that natural immunity is stronger, more sterilizing, and longer lasting than covid vaccination. brownstone has collected over 150 studies on this topic HERE.

it is manifestly clear that not only are the vaxxed and boosted getting more covid than the unvaccinated:



but that this trend is getting worse over time as variants undergo evolution driven by leaky vaccines that have antigenically fixated the purportedly inoculated: https://boriquagato.substack.com/p/covi ... ly-vaccine

this is likely driving the opposite of herd immunity.it’s driving herd antigenic fixation and perpetual vulnerability.

many states are starting to try to adulterate and hide the data on outcomes here.

“In an announcement Tuesday, the Department of Health and Human Services said it had redefined COVID-19 hospitalization to include only patients being treated with remdesivir or dexamethasone, drugs used for hospitalized patients with moderate to severe illness. Those hospitalized with milder symptoms or primarily for another cause are no longer included — even if they continue to take up a hospital bed because they are too ill to be discharged.”

i suspect that this is because those who are still doing apples to apples comps look like this in the over 70’s hospitalization figures despite 95%+ vaxx rates.

this is out of season and unexpected. something is wrong.

(note that these are not the same scale)



and it’s pretty clear what that something is: the vaccines are becoming the problem.

issues with vaccines preventing/attenuating the acquisition of long term, sterilizing immunity even after having had actual covid have been known for some time and we’ve seen that variant specific boosters did nothing to broaden immunity or make it more specific: https://boriquagato.substack.com/p/vari ... rs-fail-to

at the end of this trial, certain internet felines were heard to ask:

testing the effects of adaptive immune learning from exposure to live pathogen is a really obvious next step in an experimental series like this and one the researchers were well set up to undertake.

i wonder why they didn’t…?

well, while one can never be sure when guessing at the motivations of others, we may now have a bit more reason to suspect it was “because they did not want to have to release the results” because it sure looks like they played out just as one would predict. and that is incredibly damning for vaccines.

THIS study is devastating. (and the lead author, dean follmann, is from the NIAID, fauci’s fiefdom)

the key finding is here:



in simple layman’s terms, this is showing you serious suppression of immune system training. mRNA vaccines do not train your immune system to recognize the nucleocapsid of SARSCOV. they cannot. they do not contain it. they contain instructions to teach your cells to express proteins on their surfaces that look like those created by cells infected with covid19 and to then elicit (and intensify) and immune response. this is a narrow, intense form of immune training.

it is also why, many have posited, these vaccines have proven so unable to provide sterilizing immunity. because this is an after effect. it’s akin to training your night watchman to recognize a burning building, but not an arsonist. until the fire gets lit, he won’t react, even if the arsonist is still standing right next to it. he’s never seen one. he does not know what an arsonist is.

exposure to live virus should teach him. the result of this learning is the ability and propensity to produce N antibodies against the nucleocapsid of the virus itself. now you WILL attack arsonists as soon as you see them.

93% of untreated who got the virus acquired this ability.

but only 40% of those who took the moderna vaccine and were then exposed to live virus did.

nearly 6 in 10 (57%) of those vaccinated who would have been expected to generate these antibodies did not.

welcome to OAS/antigenic fixation, population: probably you.

this gets more complex and considerably more concerning as the N response appears exposure intensity related and varies widely by intensity of exposure.

at low exposures, the likelihood of manifesting is 6-8 to 1 in favor of placebo.



note that this is pre-unblinding data from the actual moderna phase 3 trial. it is not new data, just a new analysis/publication. (it was all also done in old variants. there is strong reason to expect current result would be even worse for vaccines)

so this was known or at least knowable back before the FDA has made any approvals. the fact that it was either missed or ignored/not published is astonishing. that’s a staggering lapse and i honestly struggle to imagine a valid and non-nefarious reason for this that could not be construed as full blown gross incompetence.

i am all but totally sure we’re going to see this same issue in the pfizer data that the FDA was so desperate to delay the release of.

i struggle to imagine pfizer missing this, moderna missing this, and the FDA missing this. if that happened, then some very pointy questions about how broken our approval process is beg to be asked. because everything here is pointing more and more toward: the vaccines are going to be a serious, long term preventer of herd immunity. this is an astonishing outcome from the agencies and experts that literally just changed the very definition of herd immunity to exclude natural immunity and include only vaccines.



so, yes, expect a stunning pivot in the US. this is well past “inconvenient truth” and inching toward “we’re going down in history as the worst villains in the history of public health.”

expect to see heaven and earth moved to stop that from emerging.

but i doubt the charade can last. signs are becoming too blatant and the effects over months and years will be too clear.

also, others, who are not so conflicted and prone to cronyistic dissembling and are looking into it.

little discussed in the US, the danes just suspended their covid vaccination campaign. (many in scandinavia having already discontinued mRNA jabs for the young)

perhaps i’m being overly optimistic and reading more into this than is warranted, but this “thorough assessment” they reference piqued my interest.



i wonder if the folks that gutted masks with their DANMASK study might be about to perform a similar service for vaccines?

for while bill the bard might speak of something rotten in denmark, it does not appear to be their public health agencies.

and they sure have lots of data to look at.

i wonder what they’ll find?
