Hang on a minute… It’s now being admitted that COVID was a leak from a lab????

After all the claims of misinformation and banning people from social media for saying so???

During an interview with the Fox News Channel released on Tuesday, FBI Director Christopher Wray publicly confirmed that the FBI assessed that the COVID virus most likely originated from a lab by stating that the agency has, “for quite some time now, assessed that the origins of the pandemic are most likely a potential lab incident in Wuhan.”

Wray said, [relevant remarks begin around 16:45] “[T]he FBI has, for quite some time now, assessed that the origins of the pandemic are most likely a potential lab incident in Wuhan.”


He continued, “Let me step back for a second, the FBI has folks, agents, professionals, analysts, virologists, microbiologists, etc. who focus specifically on the dangers of biological threats, which include things like novel viruses like COVID and the concerns that, in the wrong hands, some bad guys, a hostile nation-state, a terrorist, a criminal, the threats that those could pose. So, here, you’re talking about a potential leak from a Chinese government-controlled lab that killed millions of Americans, and that’s precisely what that capability was designed for. I should add that our work related to this continues, and there are not a whole lot of details I can share that aren’t classified. I will just make the observation that the Chinese government, it seems to me, has been doing its best to try to thwart and obfuscate the work here…and that’s unfortunate for everybody.


People need to start waking up to the lies and censorship/ coverups being propagated by our media.

The amount of flak people took for even suggesting COVID was a lab leak was off the scale.

Really don’t know why Fauci is not in big trouble.

Not surprised. A couple weeks back they reported that natural immunity to Covid offered high or even higher protection than the vaccine from serious illness.

This is another argument that went on for months whilst they tried to make vaccination mandatory for everyone.

Where there is money to be made, lies follow .......... if adults don't know this by now, there is no helping them.

Just makes me laugh tbh, I got covid late in Nov 2021 and it wasn't fun, but I don't regret not letting them pump that sht in me one bit.

My mother has bad asthma and she was very concerned about getting it but when she eventually did she was fine also and neither of us were vaccinated, appreciate that might not of been everyones experience but we both took anti-biotics when we felt the chest cough / infection was starting to worsen and in both cases it helped it from getting worse.

The main danger of dying from Covid from the off was always the lung infection, which then turned to pneumonia and that's why you saw all those people in the beginning on breathing machines in hospital.

I bet a lot of those people could of been saved if they had treated the lung infection with anti-biotics and not tried to treat the Covid infection which as we know can't be treated, its the symptoms and conditions it causes which have to be treated, Covid just inflames the conditions it causes.

Hiya guys,

It's been a while!
I'm not reading through the hundreds of pages, but I hope everyone was okay during covid.

I'm posting this as my 10 year old daughter and husband have had covid this last week. Daughter is fine, lasted a day or 2. Husband is still poorly with it but not as bad as the first time. I'm hoping the variant is weaker so the illness isn't as bad.

In 2020 when covid was announced, i had been working as a senior carer for 6 years in a care home for people with dementia.
What I went through is something I will never forget. The management and carers got covid, along with a few residents. Within a week, there was me and another senior running the home over 24 hours between us. We had 3 staff members, (needed 8 at least) so had to get agency in. Then every resident apart from 2 was hit with covid. Lost 5 out of 19 residents.

The 2 that didn't get it, were the ones who had it in March. The outbreak was December. Luckily when I did get it, the management and staff were due back the next day. I honestly have never felt as ill in my life when I got it.

Then the vaccines came...I refused. I knew you could be immune for 8 months at least due to the 2 residents that didn't get it. It's not that i disagree with them.

I actually ended up leaving care over a year ago to focus on better hours, less stress and my family. Good job I did really because I would of been sacked for not having the vaccine a few months later. When I think back to that time, I would come home and just cry in the shower. Having texts when i was at home saying residents were positive, having paramedics looking like space men in the home, seeing people dying infront of you, trying to control the spread but yet results in care homes were taking 5 bloody days to come back. Was unreal.

I know covid is back now, hopefully its a weaker varient. Sorry for the vent, lol. That's only half of it.

Have any of you had covid recently and noticed you are not as ill as the first time?

I'm not 100% on the vaccine as I stopped reading about it to be honest.

If it can help reduce the illness, then fine. But the lies about if you didn't have it you could spread covid were ridiculous. So many people lost their jobs.

Funny though, me and my husband had it in 2020. He is healthier than me, had both vaccines and tested positive last Thursday.
I drink, smoke (bad habit i know), had no vaccine and "touch wood" haven't caught it. No idea how I haven't with my daughter and him in the house with it.

Ironic this channel has come back in the past 24 hours as both my partner and I have it now. The first time we have knowingly had it. Strange feeling, not like any illness I usually get, but not wiped me out totally, partner more so

But nice to see you on here Trina, can't imagine the few years you have had

I like to think the vaccine reduced the effects of the virus, especially back when the variants were more dangerous. I picked up covid first time in Dec 21 not long after I'd received the first booster and had a couple of days feeling poorly, but then got better quickly. I didn't bother with the next booster in '22 and picked up covid in Dec 22, whilst already suffering a chest cold. It didn't seem to affect me much....as I only tested due to my wife having tested positive.

Lets hope it continues to weaken and we can eventually forget all about it!

Hi Trina. Nice to hear from you

My grandmother lived in a care home for the last year of her life, and died over Christmas 2020. The staff at the home were amazing.

The care and professionalism shown by them was outstanding. Some of them moved into a guest house and lived together there in isolation so as not to risk picking it up from their partners. That was in the early stages before the vaccines and before anyone really understood much. It must have been like a siege from their point of view.

It is a big care home, and without their hard work many, many more would have died. My Nan had the last laugh and died without covid. (While the whole place was locked down with it.) Typical of her!!

I honestly think care home staff were national heroes during the pandemic. The shit wages they earn are a disgrace as well. I don't blame you for leaving.

Aww bless her, sorry for your loss. Care homes can get such a bad name, but the majority of carers are really good.

I think I was on 6p more an hour for being a senior to a normal carer. I ran the shift, I had to decide if I needed a doctor, 111 or 999. If i would of made the wrong call and someone died, that would of been my fault. To have someones life in your hands and be on just above minimum wage, work lates and weekends for no extra pay and always be short staffed. it got to the point where as much as I loved my job, well it was the residents I loved, the stress just wasnt worth it.

I'm now an account manager, work mon - fri. Finish at 1pm on a friday and earn double what i did in care. No stress and see my family much more than I was doing.

The care sector really needs sorting.

Yeah it really does. And as the Boomers get older and all eventually need care of some sort, it will only get worse. It's a ticking time bomb.

You're a true hero Trina for standing up to the bullying and blackmail.

I admit I had the 1st 2 doses (even jumped the queue for them) but when they came up with the boosters, I refused to have any because I thought "this is ridiculous, its just moving the goalposts". I had covid in July after it and apart from the first day where I had a massive fever, the rest of the week was just a mild temperature. I felt fine enough to go out and mingle with others.

The irony being is I worked in a high risk environment at the height of it, refused to wear a mask (exempt) and got close to positive cases and I had nothing at all for 2 years until after I had that vaccine. So it goes to show you that the vaccine actually did hurt your immune system so people like you not to have any were the true heroes. Especially when those leaked messages proved that Hancock and co. grossly exageratted the threat.
