- ...“CDC has a team that’s been in China for many years where we work closely with the Department of Health in China,” said Dr. Messonnier.
- “I think we should be clear to compliment the Chinese on the early recognition of the respiratory outbreak center in the Wuhan market, and how rapidly they were able to identify it as a novel coronavirus.”
...In her February 3, 2020 telebriefing, Dr. Messonnier mentioned five additional infections from the “novel coronavirus,” four with travel history to Wuhan. On February 5, reporters asked about individuals returning from Wuhan. Dr. Messonnier said that was “not something that I’m at liberty to talk about today.”
None of the reporters asked which official was laying down the rules for Dr. Messonnier.
...“In terms of the Chinese government,” Dr. Messonnier responded, “there has been a WHO team on the ground in China as well in Wuhan. There are data coming out from those efforts. We have a lot of information from China.” Dr. Messonnier did not give the reporters any of the information “from China.”
...At no point did Dr. Messonnier deviate from the PRC-WHO line, and she was evasive about China’s role.
So was Dr. Anthony Fauci, who took over as the government’s main pandemic mouthpiece.
Last November, Joe Biden’s Covid-19 advisory board called for Dr. Messonnier, to take a central role in briefings on the pandemic as a way to elevate science and restore public trust in the CDC. That never happened, and after her reassignment, Messonnier resigned.

- What did she know about the Wuhan Institute of Virology, and the dangerous gain-of-function research that went on there, funded by the National Institutes of Health?...Read all.
