Two weeks before the first publicly reported case of novel coronavirus, the director of the bioweapon lab in Wuhan, China, where CD Media has been reporting was most likely the center of the outbreak of the virus, released an order barring anyone from discussing the release of the pathogen.

The issue of the gag order is literally a smoking gun the lab at least knew about the viral outbreak long before the ‘food market’ was fingered as the cause.

Further information is now being released on the probable release of the virus at the lab in Wuhan, further corroborating our reporting yesterday.
