The Regime’s Not Interested in Where Covid Came From

BUCK: Oh, she just walked out on him, apparently.

BUCK: Jen Psaki gets asked a question there by a journalist about what Biden’s doing to find out — shouldn’t we know — the origins of covid? My friend, they’re gonna want to stop talking about so much when it comes to covid, especially now that it seems the guardrails on Twitter when it comes to covid conversation may be removed. Let’s be clear.

That is one of the main areas of their suppression campaign all along here has been getting rid of our ability to have honest discussions about what the call “disinformation.” Twitter was saying it was advertising information to talk about the origins of covid in China. Isn’t it fascinating, Clay? China has concentration camps right now today.

But the notion that they might have been engaged in some biological research in a lab that we need is doing virus research and weren’t exactly honest when they had a little mistake moment? That was beyond the pale. “No, no, it came from a pangolin, or was it a bat, or was it a bat and then a pangolin.”

CLAY: (laughing)

BUCK: But they never found the intermediary species like they’ve been in the past when there have been outbreaks like SARS before. There was disinformation. Let’s be honest. Did you know what a pangolin was when you heard it?

CLAY: No, I had no idea.

BUCK: I feel like I’m pretty good with knowing what the animals are in general. And I was like, “A pangolin?” I had no idea what that was.

CLAY: How about the fact that they sold the idea that the wet market, which was basically right next door to the virology laboratory?

BUC: Yeah.

CLAY: They sold that from the get-go and got so many people to buy into it when any… Occam’s Razor: If you just basically look at the facts and eliminated everything else, you’d be like, “Well, probably the highly infectious disease came from the highly infectious disease laboratory,” right?

BUCK: Right.

CLAY: If you were just thinking about what the most likely outcome for how covid arose. Hence that would clearly be it.

BUCK: The wet market situation is also fascinating. That’s not a rarity in China for there to be these.

CLAY: They’re everywhere.

BUCK: It’s like an exotic animal food market. Gee.

CLAY: Yes.

BUCK: And it really stretches back to Mao because Mao’s Great Leap Forward and agricultural policies — which led to the Great Famine and the massive starvation of millions and millions of Chinese. One of the things that people did just to try to survive was to begin to cultivate these wild and, in some cases, even rare species for food.

CLAY: Yeah.

BUCK: That’s the origins of the wet market. So this is all over China. And then the Chinese Communist Party, it’s become so much a part of Chinese culture, Chinese Communist Party makes money off of these wet markets, obviously, so they don’t really want… They’ve started to shut them down in recent years. They don’t really shut them down, though, because it’s a source of profits.

But think about that: Bad Central Planning led to the wet markets which, the wet market in this case was next to the virus research lab which is also the product of their Central Planning and lack of accountability and transparency. But I just note the Biden administration, you think that they want to find out that we were right and they were wrong on yet another issue? No, I do not think they want to do a thorough deep dive investigation into the origins of covid.

CLAY: Now you really can’t do it, either, based on how long it has been since covid initially emerged. We had the WHO investigation, which was a complete joke. I don’t think we’re ever going to have a definitive, “This is where covid came from” story for a hundred percent certainty, which is why I think you have to look all the surrounding circumstances.

And, by the way, the result, the CDC — to the extent you still trust them — came out with data earlier today, Buck, and we’ve been talking about what percentage of people have natural immunity in the population: 75% of kids, according to CDC data in February, have been exposed to covid — 58% of adults, 75% of kids.

BUCK: Antibodies. They basically were infected and had an asymptomatic case, right? We’ve all —

CLAY: A hundred percent.

BUCK: A hundred percent of America unless you literally lived in a basement that you did not see a human being has been exposed. But, I mean, three out of five people, Clay just sent this to me in the break. It’s a CNBC piece here. Just based on a new CDC analysis, three-out-of-five people now have antibodies from a previous covid infection.

CLAY: Yes. Not from the vaccine.

BUCK: Right.

CLAY: These are people who actually had covid and recovered.

BUCK: So 60% of America basically got covid is what they’re telling us. I still think that number is probably a little low.

CLAY: Probably ’cause a lot of people’s immunity would you have faded. This is in February, the number. So if you got it back in November or July or September of 2020, you might not have tested positive. But the wild thing is, even right now by the CDC’s own data in February, Buck, 75% of kids — 64%, I believe, the number is, between 18 and 49 years old.

BUCK: Hold on a second. Are you telling me that children intermittently putting little Batman cloth masks on their faces during their school day didn’t keep them so safe from the virus that wasn’t even a danger to them in the first place? Gosh! Almost like what we’ve been saying for two years now.

CLAY: Think about the numbers there, Buck. If 75% of children — even by the CDC’s data in February — already have had and recovered from covid, the chances of your kid getting covid and dying from it are… We have said infinitesimally small for a long time. They’re actually even tinier than we would have ever believed in the past. These numbers, again, just coming out from the CDC, CNBC writing about it, just further illustrate that we don’t need to do anything to kids. Your kids don’t need a covid shot. They’ve probably already had it.
