Peter Daszak (9 December 2019)  [1]

Dr. Peter Daszak is a US virologist interested in zoonotic emergence of viruses. He worked with the WHO[2] and for years worked with Zhengli Shi on gain-of-function research to weaponise bat coronaviruses.[3][4][5] After his dual role as creator of new coronaviruses and "investigator" of COVID's origins was clear, Glenn Greenwald termed him a "completely discredited, conflict-plagued scientist".[6]

Background

Peter Daszak took a B.Sc. in Zoology with applied zoology in Bangor University in 1987, followed by a Ph.D. from the University of East London,

Activities

Daszak is president of EcoHealth Alliance, which disbursed NIH funds for the investigation of emerging viruses to laboratories including the Wuhan Institute of Virology[7], about which he has refused to provide paperwork requested by US congress.[8]

Gain-of-function research

Peter Daszak's EcoHealth Alliance was awarded $666,442 to carry our research into "Understanding the Risk of Bat Coronavirus Emergence."[9]

Rejection by DARPA

In 2018 his DEFUSE project was turned down by DARPA, because it proposed Gain-of-function research but "the proposal does not mention or assess potential risks of Gain of Function (GoF) research."[10]

Warning about the possibility of zoonotic virus emergence

Pandemics are like terrorist attacks: We know roughly where they originate and what’s responsible for them, but we don’t know exactly when the next one will happen. They need to be handled the same way — by identifying all possible sources and dismantling those before the next pandemic strikes.”
Peter Daszak (27 February 2020)  [11]

In November 2019 Daszak appeared in The Next Pandemic with Bill Gates, Joel Montgomery, Maryn McKenna, Allison McGeer, Allan Detsky.

“We don’t think twice about the cost of protecting against terrorism... We need to start thinking about pandemics the same way.”
Peter Daszak (21 April 2020)  [12]

Promoting the "lone bat" zoonotic theory of COVID-19's origins

Full article: COVID-19/Origins/Cover up

Daszak has consistently promoted the zoonotic theory of the origins of COVID and obstructed real research into the topic. He emailed Fauci in 2020 to thank him for publicly discrediting the possibility that Covid was man made.[13]

“Instead of providing public health authorities with the plentiful information at his disposal, [Peter Daszak] immediately launched a public relations campaign to persuade the world that the epidemic couldn’t possibly have been caused by one of the institute’s souped-up viruses.”
Peter Daszak (2021)  [14]

In February 2020 Daszak anonymously drafted a statement to The Lancet[15] that strongly condemned "conspiracy theories suggesting that COVID-19 does not have a natural origin".[16]

“The point is that, let’s look at a balance of probability. That’s what you have to do. We have a few hundred technicians and scientists working in these labs. They do not have a problem with staff or with security or with loose controls. These are very well-run labs.

Peter Daszak (16 April 2020)  [17]

In April 2020 Daszak before his role in funding g-o-f research at the WIV was widely appreciated, he appeared on multiple occasions to promote the zoonotic theory of COVID-19, at least once with Bill Gates.[18][19] After the NIH cut his funding, CBS named him "a scientist whose work is helping in the search for a COVID-19 cure" was "being undercut by pandemic politics."[20] He stated on Democracy Now! that "The idea that this virus escaped from a lab is just pure baloney."[21]

Publications

Peter Daszak has published many papers on the emergence of viruses, some with Zheng-Li Shi.


 

An event carried out

EventDescription
DEFUSEA rejected proposal from Peter Daszak of EcoHealth Alliance to weaponise naturally occuring bat coronaviruses, to preempt "zoonotic spillover". Authenticity questionable.

 

A Quote by Peter Daszak

PageQuoteDate
EcoHealth Alliance“Once we’ve got a good group of around 20 well-known people, I will then circulate this via social media and email, with a link to a webserver for others in the greater science community (and interested public) to sign on to this statement. I will then present this to the ISID meeting in KL, Malaysia in 2 weeks and I think we’ll get a big impact from that community and it should then take off. Please note that this statement will not have EcoHealth Alliance logo on it and will not be identifiable as coming from any one organization or person, the idea is to have this as a community supporting our colleagues.”6 February 2020

Global Virome Project“The seeds of the [Global Virome] project were sown between 2009 and 2019, when the US government funded a big push into virus hunting in wildlife in tropical regions through a programme called PREDICT. When this funding came to an end, the main players got together to seek private and charitable funding to continue the work. These included, from government, Dennis Carrol, director of the Emerging Pandemic Threats Division within the United States Agency for International Development; from academia, Jonna Mazet of the University of California at Davis, who had been director of the PREDICT project; from the non-profit world, Peter Daszak, head of the EcoHealth Alliance, who became treasurer of the new project; and from the private sector, Nathan Wolfe, founder of the DNA database firm Metabiota.”Matt Ridley
