The inside story of the China Communist Party (CCP) cover-up of COVID-19 (covid, in short) epidemic has been gradually disclosed. China media Caixin.com recently confirmed that as early as 1 January 2020, CCP officials ordered laboratories to stop testing and destroy SARS-CoV-2 samples in Wuhan.

Caixin.com reported on 26 February 2020 that according to Zhao Su, chief physician of the Department of Respiratory Medicine, Wuhan Central Hospital, his hospital sent covid virus samples of patients with respiratory symptoms from the Wuhan Huanan Seafood Market to a third-party testing agency for NGS on 24 December 2019. After three days of testing, that is, 27 December, the testing agency notified the test results by phone that "it is a new coronavirus."

The report and quoted multiple sources stated that as of the end of December, many domestic NGS testing agencies had successively detected covid, and pointed out that the coronavirus was highly contagious, and also reported to relevant government departments. However, no official announcement by CCP was made.

Not only that, the report quoted a source from a gene sequencing company as saying that on 1 January 2020, he received a phone call from an officer of the Hubei Health and Medical Commission to inform him that if Wuhan had any samples of covid virus, these samples could not be tested again. Existing SARS-Cov-2 samples must be destroyed, sample information cannot be disclosed to the public, and related papers and related data cannot be released to the public.

On 3 January 2020, the General Office of the National Health Commission of the Communist Party of China issued the "Notice on Strengthening the Management of Biological Sample Resources and Related Scientific Research Activities in the Prevention and Control of Major Infectious Diseases." The notice stipulates that all relevant institutions will provide biological samples to designated pathogen detection institutions to conduct pathogenic testing and complete the transfer procedures in accordance with the requirements of health and health administrative departments at or above the provincial level. Without approval, biological samples cannot be provided to other institutions and individuals with relevant information. Institutions and individuals who have obtained biological samples of relevant cases from relevant medical and health institutions should immediately destroy the samples in situ or send them to the depository designated by the state for storage. During the epidemic prevention and control work, no institution or individual may release information about pathogen detection or experimental activities.

After the notice was issued, some virologists revealed that the Wuhan Institute of Virology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences was required to stop pathogen detection and destroy existing samples.

The report said that from 30 December 2019, the Wuhan Institute of Virology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences complete virus gene sequencing from the virus sample to virus isolation and isolate the virus strains until 11 January 2020 when the virus genome sequence was announced to the public, which is 15 days from the first case since genetic sequencing confirmed the SARS-CoV-2.

The days from the end of December 2019 to the beginning of January this year should have been a crucial moment in determining the fate of countless people but at the time the public was unaware of the virus.

The CCP once claimed that Wuhan Huanan Seafood Market was the source of the virus but the authorities quickly disinfected and cleaned the market. Hong Kong SARS expert Guan Yi questioned that he did not understand why the authorities were so anxious to clear the source of the virus that foreign experts could not follow up on the research.

SARS-CoV-2 has recently been questioned as possibly coming from Wuhan Institue of Virology. The White House has ordered the world's top experts to study the source of the virus. Several US officials have publicly stated that the possibility of the virus being artificially manufactured is not ruled out.
