It’s May 13th, the Feast of Our Lady of Fatima, who appears to have performed another small miracle after saving the life of Pope John Paul II in the 1981 assassination attempt on the Vatican.
A senior Central Intelligence Agency operations official appeared before the U.S. Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, chaired by Senator Rand Paul.
Pressed by Chairman Paul, who had already denounced the CIA’s cover-ups of the lab-built SARS-CoV-2 several months ago, he declared that Dr. Anthony Fauci intentionally helped cover up evidence showing that COVID-19 emerged from a Chinese lab collaborating with US-funded scientists, some of whom were involved in gain-of-function and coronavirus research months before the pandemic.
“Dr. Fauci’s role in the cover-up was intentional,” said James E. Erdman III, a senior operations officer for the CIA. Erdman testified during a hearing organized by the Senate Committee on Homeland Security & Governmental Affairs, chaired by Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.).
Erdman, who served on the federal Director’s Initiatives Group (DIG) between March 2025 and April 2026, leading the investigation into the origins of COVID-19, said that this position allowed him to learn of evidence demonstrating that Fauci, the CIA, and other elements of the US intelligence community had actively covered up evidence of a COVID-19 laboratory leak.
This information has been public knowledge in the United States for years.
Because in America, there is no State Secrecy tacitly imposed by the European Union, the various Italian governments, and their complicit media, which, like Fact-Checkers, have banned Gospa News and anyone seriously investigating a pandemic engineered by Fauci and funded by Bill Gates & Co. from social media.

But Erdman III’s deposition brings together in a disgusting mosaic all the pieces already revealed in our series of Wuhan-Gates investigations. We briefly summarize them for those in a hurry, and refer everyone else to the full article (with automatic translation into Italian) on Gospa News International.
Here are some of the most significant excerpts from the deposition thanks The Defender article (full below).
Erdman also took aim at gain-of-function research. He said scientists from the federal Biological Sciences Experts Group (BSEG) helped overturn a moratorium on funding gain-of-function research that took effect in 2014.
“Several of the BSEG scientists helped Dr. Fauci rewrite definitions of gain-of-function in 2015 to lift a funding pause on dangerous research,” Erdman testified. He said BSEG members “often receive considerable funding from NIAID [the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases] and public health agencies.”
Scientists participating in BSEG included Ralph Baric, Ph.D., who worked with Wuhan Institute of Virology researcher Shi Zhengli, Ph.D., on gain-of-function experiments, Erdman said. Daszak was later “sent to China with the WHO [World Health Organization] to investigate the origins of COVID.”
Erdman said that some BSEG scientists also played a key role in Event 201, a simulation of a global coronavirus outbreak that took place in October 2019, shortly before the COVID-19 pandemic. The Gates Foundation and World Economic Forum were also involved in the planning of Event 201.
“This was a coronavirus pandemic tabletop exercise curiously similar to the events that played out during the COVID-19 pandemic, and it was attended by Dr. Fauci and individuals with IC ties like former [Director of National Intelligence] Avril Haynes,” Erdman said.
A Wall Street Journal investigation last year revealed that in 2021, Haynes opted to brief then-President Joe Biden only on evidence supporting the zoonotic theory.
Today’s hearing came two days after the expiration of a deadline to indict Fauci on charges of perjury for allegedly lying to Congress in 2021. Fauci told Congress at the time that NIH and NIAID had never funded gain-of-function research.
Paul had publicly pushed for Fauci to be indicted. Last year, Biden pre-emptively pardoned Fauci for his official acts dating back to 2014. Last month, a grand jury indicted Dr. David Morens, a former top aide to Fauci, for allegedly using his personal email account to hide communications about the origins of COVID-19.
Hawley said many of his constituents “want to see the perpetrators held to account,” people like Fauci. He urged Congress to “start tightening the funding strings” of federal agencies that are not cooperating with the investigation into the origins of COVID-19.
According to Fox News journalist Jesse Watters, the sensational allegations emerged Wednesday during a Senate Homeland Security Committee hearing.
Watters claims that Fauci’s whistleblower, James Eardman III, stated in court today that the documents were being prepared for release when the CIA intervened and seized them.
“The CIA has 24 hours to return the documents to Tulsi Gabbard’s office, or I will file a motion to issue a subpoena. “These documents were requested by Congress,” Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna declared on her X account.
This entire earthquake occurred in just a few days, right after the Hantavirus emergency, which the US Pentagon’s biolaboratories had been working on for years in Ukraine…

A CIA whistleblower today told the U.S. Senate that Dr. Anthony Fauci intentionally helped cover up evidence showing that COVID-19 emerged from a Chinese laboratory that worked with U.S.-funded scientists — some of whom were involved with gain-of-function research and coronaviruses months before the pandemic.
“Dr. Fauci’s role in the cover-up was intentional,” said James E. Erdman III, a senior operations officer for the CIA. Erdman testified during a hearing organized by the Senate Committee on Homeland Security & Governmental Affairs, chaired by Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.).
Erdman, who worked for the federal Director’s Initiatives Group (DIG) between March 2025 and April 2026, leading its investigation into COVID-19’s origins, said this position exposed him to evidence that Fauci, the CIA and other elements of the U.S. intelligence community actively covered up evidence of a COVID-19 lab leak.
He said a “small circle” of scientists was involved in the cover-up and helped promote the theory that the SARS-CoV-2 virus had a zoonotic — or natural — origin. Fauci then referred investigators from various U.S. intelligence agencies leading an interagency probe into the virus’s origins to the same scientists, Erdman said.
Erdman said the scientists were linked to gain-of-function research, which increases the virulence or transmissibility of viruses and is used in vaccine development.
Erdman said the cover-up continues today and that CIA whistleblowers have faced retaliation from the agency. When asked if there is still resistance within the CIA to comply with legislation to declassify all COVID-19 origins documents, Erdman responded, “Yes.”
Erdman told lawmakers that public health policy “would have been very different had the American public been made aware that a virus from a lab in China was going to serve as the foundation for an Emergency Use Authorization mRNA product being mandated by the former administration.”
Paul called the COVID-19 pandemic “one of the most consequential events of our lifetime.” The senator said that “to this day, the American people have never received a full accounting of where it [the virus] came from, what our government knew and why they had to fight their own government to find out.”
Mary Holland, CEO of Children’s Health Defense, said today’s hearing “broke the COVID-19 spell that has ensnared Congress for over six years.” “Finally, it seems that Congress might start the reckoning that is so desperately needed to account for the deaths and destruction of the COVID-19 years,” Holland said.
Erdman testified today in response to a subpoena the Senate committee issued earlier this month, as part of Paul’s ongoing investigation into COVID-19’s origins.
The CIA did not clear Erdman to testify. No Senate Democrats attended or participated in today’s hearing — an absence Holland called “inexcusable.” Later today, Fox News reported that the CIA was “not happy” with today’s hearing.
Fauci spoke with interagency investigators on several occasions in 2020 and 2021, when the CIA was already strongly considering that the virus may have leaked from a lab, Erdman said. Investigators wanted to speak with Fauci — who provided them with a “curated list of subject matter experts,” Erdman said.
However, the list of experts “coincidentally” mirrored the list of co-authors of a key 2020 Nature Medicine paper, “The proximal origin of SARS-CoV-2.” Fauci and other public health officials and media figures later used the paper to refute the lab-leak theory and discredit its proponents as “conspiracy theorists.”
“There is a narrative that was being generated” by Fauci, Erdman said.
US House Committee BOMBSHELL: “Dr. Fauci Potentially Influenced CIA COVID-19 Origins Investigation”
Last year, the Trump administration launched an investigation to determine whether Fauci and others influenced the paper’s conclusions in exchange for funding.
Erdman testified that in August 2021, Fauci’s intervention helped lead the CIA to adopt a neutral stance on the origin of COVID-19, rather than supporting the lab-leak theory. He said:
“It was significantly influenced by Anthony Fauci injecting himself into the IC [intelligence community]. … We have documentation that shows that … the CIA was considering calling this a lab leak [as late as] Aug. 12, 2021. And then, that changed on Aug. 17, 2021. … Unfortunately, because the CIA would not provide us documentation that we asked for, we have no idea why that changed.”
Less than a week later, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) fully licensed Pfizer’s mRNA Comirnaty COVID-19 vaccine. A day after the FDA issued its approval, the U.S. military mandated the vaccine for its service members.
Erdman said that while he has not found “smoking gun” documentation of Fauci or other officials openly discussing a cover-up, he said there was a “pervasive undercurrent” indicating this in much of the documentation he’s seen.
“From the outset of the pandemic, Dr. Fauci shaped the conclusions,” Paul said. “Dozens of times, he referred to the idea that the pandemic originating in the lab was a conspiracy.”
According to Erdman, Fauci’s views haven’t changed. “He believes it’s natural origin. He still does,” Erdman said.
Erdman testified that CIA officials who spoke out about the possibility of a cover-up have faced repercussions from the agency, ranging from surveillance to retaliation.
“Following the CIA’s COVID relook that culminated in 2023, the CIA retaliated against analysts supporting the lab-leak hypothesis,” Erdman said. “CIA managers retaliated against them for their refusal to agree with management’s middle-of-the-night anonymous rewrite of the analysis, which changed the assessment to a non-call judgment.”
According to Erdman, the CIA began illegally monitoring “the computer and phone usage” of DIG personnel, including “their investigations and contact with whistleblowers.”
“These were Americans being spied upon illegally while executing duties directed by the president and under the authority of the director of national intelligence,” Erdman said. At least one CIA contractor was fired as a result, “one day after meeting with the DIG.”
Erdman said the legislative and executive branches will remain misinformed if “this type of behavior is not addressed.”
Several Republican senators who participated in the hearing agreed with Erdman’s suggestions that various government and intelligence agencies are still involved in efforts to cover up evidence of a COVID-19 lab leak.
Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), who last month led a hearing presenting evidence that the FDA knew of a better method to detect COVID-19 vaccine safety signals — including sudden deaths following vaccination — but concealed it, said he sent multiple agencies “very legitimate oversight requests,” which were mostly ignored.
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) said that after Congress unanimously passed a bill he sponsored in 2023 requiring the U.S. government to release documentation on COVID-19’s origins, the government “deliberately” withheld most documents.
Rather than providing thousands of pages of documents as requested, Congress received five pages, which were partially redacted. “If that isn’t a cover-up, I don’t know what is,” Hawley said.
Erdman also took aim at gain-of-function research. He said scientists from the federal Biological Sciences Experts Group (BSEG) helped overturn a moratorium on funding gain-of-function research that took effect in 2014.
“Several of the BSEG scientists helped Dr. Fauci rewrite definitions of gain-of-function in 2015 to lift a funding pause on dangerous research,” Erdman testified. He said BSEG members “often receive considerable funding from NIAID [the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases] and public health agencies.”
Scientists participating in BSEG included Ralph Baric, Ph.D., who worked with Wuhan Institute of Virology researcher Shi Zhengli, Ph.D., on gain-of-function experiments, Erdman said. Daszak was later “sent to China with the WHO [World Health Organization] to investigate the origins of COVID.”
Last month, Baric reportedly lost his National Institutes of Health (NIH) grants and was placed on leave by his institution, the University of North Carolina. In 2024, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services suspended all funding for EcoHealth Alliance because it failed to properly monitor its coronavirus experiments.
Erdman said that some BSEG scientists also played a key role in Event 201, a simulation of a global coronavirus outbreak that took place in October 2019, shortly before the COVID-19 pandemic. The Gates Foundation and World Economic Forum were also involved in the planning of Event 201.
“This was a coronavirus pandemic tabletop exercise curiously similar to the events that played out during the COVID-19 pandemic, and it was attended by Dr. Fauci and individuals with IC ties like former [Director of National Intelligence] Avril Haynes,” Erdman said.
A Wall Street Journal investigation last year revealed that in 2021, Haynes opted to brief then-President Joe Biden only on evidence supporting the zoonotic theory.
Erdman said that as early as May 2020, federal agencies like the U.S. Department of Energy were circulating internal documents suggesting that “all the conditions were present for a lab leak.”
Last year, the Trump administration launched a new version of the government’s official COVID-19 website, presenting evidence supporting the lab-leak theory. The CIA, FBI, Department of Energy, Defense Intelligence Agency, Congress and some foreign intelligence agencies ultimately endorsed the lab-leak theory.
Erdman expressed support for President Donald Trump’s executive order, issued last year, which paused funding for gain-of-function research for 120 days, a period during which a new federal policy on such research was to be developed. The administration has not yet announced a new policy.
“We need a comprehensive review of government-funded life science research and a move back to pre-9/11 definitions of gain-of-function and WMD [weapons of mass destruction] research,” Erdman said. “Oversight must have teeth.”
Today’s hearing came two days after the expiration of a deadline to indict Fauci on charges of perjury for allegedly lying to Congress in 2021. Fauci told Congress at the time that NIH and NIAID had never funded gain-of-function research.
Paul had publicly pushed for Fauci to be indicted. Last year, Biden pre-emptively pardoned Fauci for his official acts dating back to 2014. Last month, a grand jury indicted Dr. David Morens, a former top aide to Fauci, for allegedly using his personal email account to hide communications about the origins of COVID-19.
Paul didn’t address the expiration of the statute of limitations during today’s hearing, but he did suggest that the evidence Erdman presented bolsters the case for the passage of the Risky Research Review Act, legislation he proposed last year.
Hawley said many of his constituents “want to see the perp walks” of figures such as Fauci. He called on Congress “to start pulling purse strings” of federal agencies that are uncooperative with the investigation into COVID-19’s origins.
“It is well past time for us to have [another] Church Committee,” Johnson said, referring to a 1975 U.S. Senate committee that investigated CIA wrongdoing.

Ogni volta che usiamo lo smartphone, usiamo un congegno prodotto con sostanze estratte dalle viscere della Terra: tungsteno, stagno, tantalio e oro. Questi minerali sono essenziali per i circuiti stampati, gli schermi e le batterie. Senza di loro, la comunicazione moderna cessa di esistere.
Non solo. Titanio, tantalio e tungsteno sono elementi fondamentali per i moderni sistemi d’arma, quelli ad alte prestazioni; e capacità di combattimento uniche e letali. Ma la loro estrazione ha un costo che va ben oltre il prezzo all’ingrosso, pur in continua crescita. Lo sfruttamento minerario sta distruggendo gli ecosistemi che per secoli hanno tenuto lontani gli agenti patogeni, spesso letali, dalle popolazioni umane.
Nella zona orientale della Repubblica Democratica del Congo, l’estrazione del coltan —la colombite-tantalite— ha spinto i lavoratori a inoltrarsi nelle foreste che ospitano colonie di pipistrelli, sospetti serbatoi naturali del virus Ebola. L’epidemia di Ebola del 2018-2020 si è sviluppata in regioni dove i campi minerari confinano con la frontiera forestale.
Nel Borneo malese, lo sgombero dei terreni per l’estrazione mineraria e la coltivazione della palma è stato direttamente collegato a una ondata di malaria. L’estrazione illegale dell’oro nel territorio brasiliano degli Yanomami ha creato migliaia di pozze stagnanti contaminate da mercurio, perfetti siti di riproduzione delle zanzare. Tra il 2021 e il 2023, i casi di malaria tra gli indigeni sono più che raddoppiati, mentre la Dengue si è diffusa in zone prima sicure.
Negli ultimi trent’anni, tanto i media quanto la politica hanno guardato esclusivamente al cielo. Attraverso i mercati del carbonio, l’umanità si è illusa di poter contenere il riscaldamento globale scambiandosi i crediti di emissione in atmosfera. I dati osservati dimostrano come la mitigazione finanziaria del clima sia in gran parte fallita. Terre emerse e oceani soffrono in silenzio.
Sebbene ridurre i gas serra sia indispensabile, la focalizzazione sulle emissioni ha condotto l’umanità in un vicolo cieco. Abbiamo trascurato le minacce tangibili e immediate poste dall’uso sconsiderato del territorio, dal degrado del suolo e dalla gestione irresponsabile dell’acqua. I crediti finanziari di carbonio non possono ripiantare una foresta rasa al suolo da un giorno all’altro. Non possono ripristinare la barriera ecologica tra una colonia di pipistrelli portatrice di nuovi virus e una comunità mineraria che vive ai margini della foresta. I crediti del carbonio atmosferico non condizionano il bulldozer che spianerà il prossimo ettaro di giungla.
La prossima epidemia di Ebola non sarà causata solo dall’aumento delle temperature, ma sarà innescata da una ruspa che abbatte gli alberi per scavare una miniera, indispensabile a rifornire le fabbriche. E soddisfare una domanda che tutti noi alimentiamo. Riconoscere il legame tra consumi ed epidemie è il primo passo verso politiche che proteggano gli ecosistemi e la salute umana attraverso una reale cura della terra e dell’acqua. Pensare di farlo contabilizzando i crediti su un registro da partita doppia è del tutto illusorio.
Possiamo vivere senza smartphone, laptop e veicoli elettrici? Molto difficile. Siamo di fronte a uno scomodo paradosso. Le stesse tecnologie che utilizziamo per organizzare le proteste sul clima, condividere i dati sulla salute pubblica e coordinare i soccorsi in caso di calamità sono il prodotto finale di processi che distruggono gli ecosistemi e innescano le epidemie.
Possiamo vivere senza armarci fino ai denti? Molto più facile ma, apparentemente, impossibile. Abbandonare la tecnologia è del tutto utopico, ma possiamo esigere responsabilità. Pratiche minerarie sostenibili, rigorosi requisiti di riforestazione, trasparenza della catena di approvvigionamento e investimenti reali nella gestione del territorio devono tramutarsi in standard non negoziabili, non capitoli opzionali sepolti nei rapporti sulla responsabilità aziendale.
Nel terzo millennio la storia della Terra ha inaugurato una epoca di emergenza continuata. Terrore, pandemia, guerra, recessione chiudono la porta alla mitigazione climatica e ogni finestra di cura ambientale. Ciò che serve è un ritorno alla normalità. Solo con la normalità della pace possiamo gestire l’ambiente in modo consapevole. Rispettare le normative sull’uso del territorio che preservano le riserve ecologiche. Sfruttare le miniere in maniera trasparente. Disciplinare il bene comune dell’acqua pulita come una infrastruttura di prevenzione delle malattie piuttosto che come una merce o un’arma letale.

Interview with Jean-Marc Sabatier by François Cotard on emerging viruses
During a lengthy interview broadcast on alternative media platforms, Jean-Marc Sabatier shared his views on several current public health topics, including hantaviruses, the Ebola virus, and Alpha-Gal syndrome.
The interview first focused on hantaviruses, a family of viruses that can cause pulmonary syndromes or hemorrhagic fevers. Jean-Marc Sabatier noted that these viruses are generally transmitted through contact with the feces, urine, or saliva of infected rodents and are not easily spread from person to person.
According to Sabatier, Moderna’s development of an mRNA vaccine targeting certain hantavirus strains as early as 2024 raises questions, particularly because these viruses are considered to have limited pandemic potential. He also described several biological mechanisms associated with these infectious agents and discussed laboratory research involving pseudoviruses.
The speakers emphasized that, based on the information available to them, the number of reported cases in Europe remains limited and that the situation does not currently warrant major concern.
The second part of the interview addressed the Ebola virus, particularly the Bundibugyo strain, which is currently being monitored in Central Africa.
Jean-Marc Sabatier reviewed the biological characteristics of the virus, its high fatality rate under certain circumstances, and its modes of transmission, primarily through contact with bodily fluids. He stressed that Ebola outbreaks have historically been contained through targeted public health measures.
The two participants also discussed funding for vaccine research directed at this specific strain. They expressed skepticism about the possibility of large-scale vaccination campaigns being implemented if the virus were to spread beyond Africa.
In addition, several potential treatments were mentioned, including certain monoclonal antibodies and older medications such as ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine, although their effectiveness remains a subject of debate within the scientific community.
The third topic concerned Alpha-Gal syndrome, a red meat allergy that can develop following bites from certain tick species, particularly the Lone Star tick, which is found primarily in North America.
Jean-Marc Sabatier explained that the condition results from an immune reaction to a sugar molecule known as galactose-α-1,3-galactose, which is present in most mammals but absent in humans.
During the discussion, the participants referred to various claims circulating on social media regarding Bill Gates’s alleged involvement in programs related to ticks or synthetic meat. They suggested that connections between these topics might exist, although no direct evidence was presented during the interview.
Ongoing Criticism of Public Health Institutions
Throughout the conversation, the participants expressed skepticism toward certain public health institutions, including the World Health Organization (WHO), regulatory agencies, and major pharmaceutical companies.
Jean-Marc Sabatier specifically criticized the development of mRNA vaccines and argued that dissenting voices face difficulties being heard within scientific and media circles. He stated that he himself has experienced a form of marginalization because of his views.
In conclusion, despite the concerns raised during the interview, Jean-Marc Sabatier encouraged listeners not to panic in response to new public health alerts. According to him, it is important to maintain a critical mindset, consult multiple sources of information, and closely monitor evolving epidemiological situations without resorting to alarmism.
Jean-Marc Sabatier, Director of Research at the CNRS, holds a PhD in cell biology and microbiology and a Habilitation à diriger des recherches (HDR) in biochemistry

UPDATE ON JUNE, 10, 2026
At least one person has been killed after Kenyan police opened fire as hundreds of demonstrators protested a quarantine centre for US citizens exposed to Ebola, which the United States government is racing to build in the central town of Nanyuki.
On Tuesday, the NGO Vocal Africa posted on X that one person had died after being shot in the head by Kenyan police who earlier used water cannon, tear gas to disperse the crowds.

The proposed 50-bed unit at an air force base in Nanyuki has angered many Kenyans, who accuse the US of offloading the health risk of caring for those exposed to the Ebola outbreak in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and Uganda.
Last week, hundreds took to the streets in Nanyuki amid growing frustration among residents as Kenyan and US authorities publicly reaffirmed their commitment to the plan despite court orders. At the time, the demonstration also turned violent, with at least two people killed and one wounded.
UPDATE ON JUNE, 1, 2026
Hundreds of Nanyuki town residents took to the streets to oppose the construction of an infectious disease isolation facility in Laikipia County.
Protesters say resources earmarked for the facility should be directed to regional development, fearing it could still expose communities to Ebola.
The army even sent a tank to quell the protest by intimidating the crowd.
The Ebola virus of the international epidemic emergency in Africa, where in Congo and Uganda it has already killed dozens of people, is at the center of many suspicions for two reasons:

UPDATED ON MAY, 29, 2026
The Doctors Without Borders (MSF aka Médecins Sans Frontières) doctor who was exposed to patients who tested positive for Ebola in the Democratic Republic of Congo arrived overnight at the Lazzaro Spallanzani National Institute for Infectious Diseases in Rome. The woman is well and asymptomatic. She will remain under observation at the Roman hospital until June 8th, MSF sources confirmed.
As part of her clinical practice, the surgeon came into contact with patients who later tested positive on May 16th. This is therefore a case of direct contact. The doctor also performed emergency lifesaving surgery on May 18th on a child who was the victim of a grenade explosion. The child is a suspected case of Ebola, and a test for Ebola is not yet available.
«Three Red Cross volunteers have died in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) as the Ebola outbreak continues to spread rapidly and cases (suspected and confirmed) surpass 1000» according to BMJ (British Medical Journal).
The volunteers-Ajiko Chandiru Viviane, Sezabo Katanabo, and Alikana Udumusi Augustin-were all helping the Red Cross manage the dead bodies of Ebola victims. Their deaths occurred over 12 days, on 5, 15, and 16 May, respectively.
The World Health Organization’s director general, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, expressed his “deepest condolences” over the fatalities. “They paid the ultimate price on the line of duty,” he wrote.
Meanwhile British researchers announced they are producing an experimental jab for the Ebola strain behind the outbreak, which currently has no approved vaccines or therapeutics (read details below).
According to the latest updates (24 and 25 May), there are currently 101 confirmed Ebola cases in the DRC and 930 suspected cases.
There have so far been 223 deaths among people with suspected cases and 10 confirmed deaths. In Uganda, seven cases and one death have been confirmed. The outbreak-currently the third largest Ebola outbreak on record (based on confirmed and

Is there a reason Americans are so worried about the new Ebola epidemic in Africa?
Is it perhaps because the US Pentagon itself has been secretly researching this virus, conducting the usual experiments to enhance it as a bioweapon in top-secret laboratories in Ukraine?
In this article, we try to provide answers and confirmation to these questions…
The United States has suspended entry to non-US citizens who have been in Ebola-affected areas in the past 21 days: Uganda, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and South Sudan.
The measure, issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), will be in effect for the next 30 days and is justified by the need to “protect the health of the United States from the serious risk posed by the introduction of Ebola virus disease into the United States by these foreign nationals.”
At the moment it is one of the few countries to have taken this drastic health measure.
Just hours earlier, the United States announced that it had strengthened precautionary measures to prevent the spread of Ebola hemorrhagic fever, implementing health screenings for air travelers from affected areas and temporarily suspending visa services.
WHO will convene an emergency committee due to the rapid spread of the Ebola Bundibugio strain.
“At the moment, 30 cases of the disease have been confirmed in the northern province of Ituri. Uganda has also reported two confirmed cases in the capital Kampala, including one death among two people who arrived from the Democratic Republic of the Congo,” said Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, head of the organization, during a briefing.
A new outbreak of Ebola virus disease in central Africa, caused by the rare Bundibugyo version of the virus, has caused more than 300 suspected cases and killed 100 people, health officials have said.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the situation a public health emergency of international concern.
The Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (Africa CDC) has so far identified 336 suspected and 10 confirmed cases in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). There have been 87 deaths in the DRC to date. Uganda has had two confirmed cases and one additional death.
In response WHO has sent five tonnes of medical supplies to the DRC, and $500 000 (£374 000; €430 000) has been released from the agency’s contingency fund for emergencies.
This Ebola outbreak is causing particular concern because it has been caused by the Bundibugyo strain, which has been detected in only two previous outbreaks, in 2007 and 2012. There are no approved treatments or vaccines for Bundibugyo Ebola.
Excerpt from BMJ
POSTED ON MAY, 18, 2026
We republish below an excellent, albeit brief, investigative article by renowned American epidemiologist Nicolas Hulsher on the extraordinary coincidence of vaccine research funding granted to Big Pharma Moderna of Cambridge, Massachusetts, just months before the Ebola emergency in the DRC.
We’ll add just two preliminary notes. Moderna has been accused of developing the mRNA COVID vaccine many months before the first outbreak in Wuhan, thanks to direct funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and the Pentagon’s DARPA military agency.
The US Army’s own health research centers conducted worrying and dangerous experiments on the Ebola virus in Pentagon-funded Ukrainian laboratories, which are now at the center of an investigation by US Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard.
These tests to enhance pathogens to transform them into bioweapons have been denounced to the UN in Geneva by Russia.
Other experiments have been conducted in Africa, especially in Congo, thanks in part to contributions from Bill Gates.
It is therefore true, as Hulsher expertly states, that the Ebola virus has little chance of becoming a pandemic, but it is equally true that this refers to the wild viral strain and not those with laboratory-enhanced genotypes (such as SARS-CoV-2, according to a CIA whistleblower) as recombinant synthetic pathogens, i.e., those obtained by inserting multiple pathogens, such as HIV-AIDS, into the Covid-19 virus.

Just a few months ago (January 2026), Bill Gates’ vaccine cartel CEPI gave Moderna and University of Oxford $26.7 million to begin developing Bundibugyo ebolavirus (BDBV) mRNA and viral vector injections. These are multivalent filovirus “vaccine” platforms, meaning they are designed to target multiple Ebola viruses and related filoviruses simultaneously — including Bundibugyo ebolavirus (BDBV).
![]()
Four months later (today), the WHO declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) over a Bundibugyo Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The same playbook always repeats:
Develop “vaccine” → Fearmonger new outbreak → Declare emergency → Gain power & control → push “vaccine” as only solution.
This marks the 17th Ebola outbreak recorded in the Democratic Republic of Congo since the virus was first identified there in 1976 — and the third known outbreak of the Bundibugyo strain since it was first identified in 2007. Across Africa, there have been dozens of Ebola outbreaks over the last 50 years.
Every previous Ebola outbreak has been successfully contained to the affected region without becoming a global pandemic.
Why? Because Ebola — including the Bundibugyo strain — spreads through direct contact with bodily fluids from symptomatic individuals, not through the air or casual contact.
There is simply no biological basis for this to become a worldwide pandemic.
So why the rapid escalation to a full Public Health Emergency of International Concern at this moment?
The WHO says because, as of May 16, there are 8 laboratory-confirmed cases, 246 suspected cases, and 80 suspected deaths in Ituri Province, with the outbreak spreading to Uganda. They cite the lack of any approved vaccines or treatments for this specific strain, high population mobility, and risk of further cross-border spread as major concerns.
However, perhaps they actually declared an emergency because the WHO’s pandemic treaty negotiations recently hit a major roadblock over the Pathogen Access and Benefit-Sharing (PABS) annex, preventing the treaty from being put into effect.
It also appears that the botched hantavirus situation didn’t yield the level of perceived fear they were hoping for.
There is simply no biological basis for this to become a worldwide pandemic.
With America’s exit, Bill Gates is now the WHO’s top funder. Thus, nothing the WHO says or does should be accepted at face value.
