China Kadoorie Bio-bank website: The CKB is being conducted jointly by University of Oxford .. and the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences (CAMS).

More interesting bed-fellows...

China Kadoorie Bio-bank: The long-term continuation of the study is supported by the Wellcome Trust, with further support in China from the Chinese Natural Science Foundation and Chinese Ministry of Science and Technology.

Chinese Ministry of Science and Technology - in a Totalitarian regime - that extracts DNA from/organ harvests prisoners of conscience. Of all you brainiacs with immense power, not one of you thought jumping into bed with the CCP to shape the future of humanity might be a bad idea?

China Kadoorie Bio-bank: The information generated will advance our understanding of .. aetiology not only in China but also in other countries.

Had to look 'aetiology' up. It means ‘the study of root causes’. Cool - me too.

Which brings us to this: Farrar was one of the original ‘world-leading experts’ that signed, then pushed the Lancet Statement.

This statement, arguably, was a 'root cause' for the international spread of Covid.
