Editor’s Note: What is quite astonishing about the following exposé is that the inimitably treacherous Dr. Fauci was able to keep his Montana biolab under wraps for so long. After nearly fours years of extensive investigations into the true origins of COVID-19, the following bombshell disclosures are being made only now. And the bioweapon laboratory is right here in our own back yard. Now that’s an impressive cover-up!
REVEALED: Anthony Fauci-run lab in MONTANA experimented with coronavirus strain shipped in from Wuhan a year BEFORE Covid pandemic began
- The NIH infected 12 bats with a SARS-like coronavirus in 2018
- The virus was shipped from Wuhan to an NIH lab in Montana
- READ MORE: Fauci warns he has nightmares about ‘next inevitable pandemic’
US taxpayer money was used to experiment with coronaviruses from the Chinese lab thought to be the source of the Covid pandemic more than a year before the global outbreak, an investigation has found.
The National Institutes of Health (NIH), under Dr Anthony Fauci‘s leadership, infected 12 Egyptian fruit bats with a ‘SARS-like’ virus called WIV1 at a lab in Montana in 2018.
The WIV1-coronavirus was shipped from the Wuhan lab the FBI believes caused the Covid pandemic and was tested on bats acquired from a ‘roadside’ Maryland zoo.
The research – revealed this week by a campaign group – determined the novel virus could not cause a ‘robust infection’.
But the research is more evidence of ties between the US government and the Wuhan lab, as well as the funding of dangerous virus research across the globe.
Eight novel viruses, including one belonging to the same family as Covid, were found in labs across China
Between 2015 and 2023, at least seven US entities supplied NIH grant money to labs in China performing animal experiments, totaling $3,306,061
The paper – SARS-Like Coronavirus WIV1-CoV Does Not Replicate in Egyptian Fruit Bats – was published in the journal Viruses in 2018. The study was first flagged by DRASTIC, a group of internet activists who investigate the origins of Covid-19 and the lab leak theory.
The group White Coat Waste Project is now using the Freedom of Information Act to request more details about the experiment.
The White Coat Waste Project is a watchdog that has been fighting to stop sending American tax dollars overseas to fund dangerous virus research.
The 2018 experiment was carried out at the NIH’s Rocky Mountain Laboratories in Montana, which was overseen by Fauci, the former director of National Institutes of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.
The research was a joint venture between the NIH’s Rocky Mountain Laboratories and Wuhan Institute of Virology collaborator Ralph Baric of the University of North Carolina.
Scientists obtained 12 Egyptian fruit bats from a Maryland zoo and inoculated them with the WIV1-coronavirus, which was first detected in Chinese rufous horseshoe bats.
They performed exams on the animals daily and measured things like body weight and temperature. Scientists also took samples from the bats’ noses and throats.
On days three, seven and 28, four of the bats were euthanized and their heart, liver, kidney, spleen, bladder, reproductive organs, eyes and brain were collected for analysis. Scientists also analyzed white blood cell count and antibodies.
Researchers determined the WIV1-coronavirus did not cause ‘a robust infection’ and ‘observed very limited evidence of virus replication.’
The bats had been sent from a ‘roadside’ Maryland zoo to the Montana facility allegedly by the zoo’s curator and director of animal health, who had previously worked at the in-house animal testing labs at the NIH from 2003 to 2012, the WCW said.
Located in Thurmont, Maryland, less than 15 minutes from Camp David, the Catoctin Wildlife Preserve (CWP) has a history of animal welfare violations and was fined $12,000 in 2012 for poor and dangerous animal housing and inadequate animal care.
Records show the preserve confined 523 federally-regulated animals as of April 2023, including 241 bats, of which 41 were Egyptian fruit bats.

The virus strain was obtained from the Wuhan lab experts believe caused the Covid-19 pandemic
Shi Zhengli – dubbed the ‘Bat Lady’ or ‘Bat Woman’ for her work on bat coronaviruses – investigated the possibility Covid could have emerged from her lab back in 2020, according to colleagues
A visitor left a review last month: ‘How is this place even legal?
‘I left heart broken and sad. The enclosures are so small and not well kept. This place is so unkept. It’s awful. It needs to be shut down. You can see the pain in these animals eyes. Something has to be done about this place.
‘This is not a preserve. It’s a place where animals are sent to suffer and be on display for humans. Disgusting.’
Despite the lack of transmission in the bats in 2018, similar dangerous research on viruses that could spark another pandemic have been ongoing across the globe for years.
And while there is debate over whether the pandemic began because a virus jumped from animals to humans or it was leaked from a lab in China, the lab-leak theory is what the FBI and other government agencies now subscribe to.
EXCLUSIVE: Virologist who funded Wuhan experiments admits lab leak is possible for first time — after years of squashing probes into Covid origins
A scientist at the center of the Covid lab leak theory has admitted he cannot rule out the possibility the virus escaped a Chinese research facility.
Most recently, DailyMail.com revealed last week Chinese virus hunters have been tinkering with novel pathogens that have a ‘high probability’ of infecting humans, despite concerns similar experiments led to the Covid outbreak.
DailyMail.com also reported in August that millions of US taxpayer dollars are being sent to shady laboratories in China to fund cruel and dangerous experiments on animals.
Despite the shipment of funds across the world, America actually performs the most gain-of-function virus research.
Gain-of-function experiments involve making pathogens more infectious or deadly.
Advocates say the tests help science get ahead of future outbreaks, but critics say the risks of a leak outweigh any potential benefits.
These fears prompted US officials to quietly shut down a taxpayer-funded $125million project last month that hunted for new viruses.
The program, DEEP VZN – pronounced deep vision – was launched in October 2021 with the aim of finding and studying novel pathogens in wildlife in Asia, Africa and Latin America.
While the research was meant to prevent human outbreaks and pandemics, critics, including Biden administration officials, were afraid it would do the opposite and voiced their fears about the potentially ‘catastrophic risks’ of virus hunting.
In a statement from the president and founder of WCW, Anthony Bellotti said: ‘Our investigation has uncovered the real-life horror story of how a shady roadside zoo whose curator was an NIH animal experimenter shipped off bats to a deadly government virus lab overseen by Dr. Fauci to be infected with a coronavirus obtained directly from the Wuhan lab that experts believe caused COVID.’

Where in Montana? Anyone?
The whole animal experimentation lab thing is a huge grift, and attracts psychopaths; besides the heavy karma it brings down on all of us.
Rocky Mountain Labs runs a Level 4 & 3 facility in Hamilton, MT. Right in the middle of the beautiful Bitterroot Valley. “It brings good, high-paying jobs” says the Chamber of Commerce and State Representatives. Maybe most of the workers cooking up the next pestilence live in Missoula with the purple-haired lesbians and college diversity agitators, but I doubt it. Nowhere is beyond the reach of the globohomo.
New lab in Kansas too. Level 4.
apnews.com/article/national-bio-lab-manhattan-kansas-opening-5fb349d58192d6821d4efa5d5a80731b
Yeah. In the middle of cattle country and the bread basket of the US. No coincidence.
It’s on Frank Zappa’s dental floss ranch.
I’ve never seen a Montana.
-gvl
Hamilton MT……a little south of Missoula in an isolated valley. This lab typically does contract work for other labs, big pharma and of course the Govt. A perfect cutout to do this type of work…..there is much more here I suspect……what else has Fauci concealed with other contract labs. It would be interesting to match the genetic footprint of WIV1 to Covid…..I bet they are damned close. Govt has to be defunded completely or they will keep pulling off evil shit, against us!
Off the beaten path in MT. Little place called Ukraine.
The California warehouse ‘ lab ‘ story went away fast didn’t it ?
CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY. Appropriate punishments must be handed out.
Anything to keep the Church of Holy Virology intact.
Read carefully: There are no viruses, only toxic injections to detox in horrific ways.
More of a cold than flu, explain the causes of “Walking pneumonia” to me please, so i may know what killed mom and i’ve suffered from 3 times since 2019. Not the first time, i recall a bout with pneumonia in the 80s. And run of the mill colds/flus living in the midwest and southern cities, nothing severe. Moving to new enviroments in colder wet areas of the country seems to increase the frequencies, while living in a dry, warm, sunnier area decreases said illnesses.
Could be targeted DNA bio weapons i suppose. I would add it seems we are/were being exposed to something out of the ordinary. As i’ve been relatively healthy and vigorous most of my life. And of course it was all a prod to take the vaxx, i have some awareness, but i can’t understand why it’s claimed there is no “lab manipulated” new Covid/bat virus with no wide spread immunites in the general pop floating around to trigger a larger scheme.
Is that so far fetched when the vaxx is a dangerous “lab created” medical experiment.
What is the definition of a flu?
Flu, also called influenza, is an infection of the nose, throat and lungs, which are part of the respiratory system. The flu is caused by a virus. Influenza is commonly called the flu, but it’s different from the stomach “flu” viruses that cause diarrhea and vomiting.
The common cold or the cold is a viral infectious disease of the upper respiratory tract that primarily affects the respiratory mucosa of the nose, throat, sinuses, and larynx.
“Walking pneumonia” is a non-medical term for a mild case of pneumonia. A more medically correct term would be atypical pneumonia and can be caused by certain molds, viruses or bacteria; often a common bacterium called Mycoplasma pneumonia.
Pneumonia is a common lung infection caused by germs, such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi. It can be a complication of the flu, but other viruses, bacteria and even fungi can cause pneumonia.
All just fate i suppose, what we will suffer from, it’s how we endure and react to it that matters.
… NO IDEA, with WHAT they sprayed You.
l googled common colds and on average an adult catches the common cold once a year so your right on par.
Wanted to add this artcle as it may be relevant.

Nanotech and neurotoxins ? or DNA manipulations geared to attack certain segments of the population.
Or at the very least can we lump it all into germ warfare ?

Where is the arrest warrants for crimes against humanity ?
Who in the Government is being fired and charged for the cover up …
I know DREAM ON …
COVID was just the flu rebranded. There was no “lab” that created it.
Yup.
And viruses don’t exist.
I am not going that far. It’s just cold and flu viruses.
Really? You can medically define cold and flu viruses? Or are you blindly believing a myth that a proven lying industry has smiled at you and declared true?
Refusing to look at what many medical professionals who now agree is indisputable proof that viruses never existed and have clearly spelled it out in super easy plain english for anyone to understand is called willful ignorance.
What’s your understanding of their argument that viruses don’t exist?
I realize you are much smarter and better informed, but my story is as follows:
The symptoms are definitely similar to the flu, but there are some key differences. In early 2021, I became ill with something flu-like, but with a few distinct differences. The stand-out symptom was with my sense of smell. Everything smelled like poop. I mean everything. Made it a bit difficult to eat, but fortunately I powered through that effect. 🙂 All those years of people telling me to eat shit must have had a positive effect.
FYI – I did not take the jab and have not been sick with it again. My oldest daughter, who also did not take the jab had a mild case with similar symptoms, but after the mild flu-like illness, has had on-going issues both with her heart and lungs. Waking up from a deep sleep with your heart beating at a 165 bpm is not a usual flu symptom. No doctors could figure out the cause…. surprise. Thank God that issue has subsided but her lungs have not fully recovered after almost two years.
I have a close friend who is as smart as you and he is now disabled from heart, lung and memory issues which have persisted for two years.
It’s not the normal flu, whatever the source.
More likely it has to do with something they called exotherms found in Yellowstone.
The linked article is probably just the tip of the iceberg: dna, Carey Mulls/pcr tests…
Many labs sprung up in Bozeman subsequently.
https://www.wyohistory.org/encyclopedia/yellowstone-microbe-changed-world
I heard about ‘this lab’ at the same time listening to a Joe Pickett novel that uses this very thing as its story. I’d heard of the discovery a few years ago while living in the Bozeman area.
A deep dive would be interesting I bet.
BS article, all about research done everywhere BUT Montana. UTTER BS.
SHAME ON TBP for nothing but click bait.
I just showed you related research done in Montana but it’s not ‘viruses’ …but exosomes/exotherms/microbes …. Get it?
dead cellular debris, is what they call a ‘virus’, some say ‘exosomes’ same same
We have a small biotech industry in MT but that Lab in Hamilton does work for other groups from across the country and beyond. The extremofiles from Yellowstone have led to a few companies but not many. I am close to Bozeman.
A lot of words to keep the virus story alive.
I’m sure that there is a perfectly reasonable explanation for this.
Reasonable explanation is weirdly like living in a novel story line.
headline read something like that it makes a nuclear target for russia.
why would russia want to destroy the evidence?
more like a target for the U.S. to destroy the evidence.
Nobody believes in evidence anymore, so bombs away.
Exactly right. Nobody with a white hat is on the way.
Because the psyop is still that there was a novel virus at all.
This article is “cooling off the marks” by continuing to present the virus as real.
____________
Sometimes, however, a mark is not quite prepared to accept his loss as a gain in experience and to say and do nothing about his venture. He may feel moved to [p. 452] complain to the police or to chase after the operators. In the terminology of the trade, the mark may squawk, beef, or come through. From the operators’ point of view, this kind of behavior is bad for business. It gives the members of the mob a bad reputation with such police as have not. yet been fixed and with marks who have not yet been taken. In order to avoid this adverse publicity, an additional phase is sometimes added at the end of the play. It is called cooling the mark out After the blowoff has occurred, one of the operators stays with the mark and makes an effort to keep the anger of the mark within manageable and sensible proportions. The operator stays behind his team‑mates in the capacity of what might be called a cooler and exercises upon the mark the art of consolation. An attempt is made to define the situation for the mark in a way that makes it easy for him to accept the inevitable and quietly go home. The mark is given instruction in
the philosophy of taking a loss.
No such thing as covid. It was the flu. Any other explanation is bullshit.
I have been to the Rocky Mountain Lab. I worked on some equipment there. The security is tight. The building I was in was dark, the hallway narrow, and the room I had to work in had poor lighting. I was glad to finish my work and leave. The locals may like the high-paying jobs, but not the threat of an accident hanging over the town of Hamilton and vicinity. They’d rather have it gone. This article reinforces that attitude. I live in Hellgate Canyon, in the north of the Bitterroot Valley, about 50 miles north of the lab and that is too close for me…
Time and time again it has been proven they LIED on just about EVERYTHING (and on one occasion the scarf lady said they did lie) that had to do with COVID and I have heard of NO ARREST or executions of those responsible. Yet, millions have suffered for it and thousands have died already.
I believe in the coming years millions will become incapacitated due to the jabs if they have not succumbed to it by DEATH.
…the little faucist?
🤣 CLEARLY, Something way more worstest is being covered up.

There is no lab made or modified virus. No virus at all Anyoone telling you that is full of shit. All the stories about lab engineered virus are just misdirection to make you think the virus story is real. It’s really very simple, No virus but alot of scare stories to sell the sheeple on the solution- most of whom fell for it. Nothing can be done for them. Short, medium or long term they are screwed. But it’s not just the jab. They are busy killing us in many other ways- think floride in your water and chemiclas in the so called “food” you eat. We are all fucked – jabites maybe just a quiclker kill. “Died suddenly” may not be such a bad way to go all things considered. Better than slow and painfull.

I can’t imagine why we are just hearing about this! Tony the biggest mass murderer the planet has ever known and he is still free to roam the earth. I am sure hell is anxious for his arrival so they can party hardy as they list all the deaths he is responsible for – WOW!
Why are we now only hearing that Sars-cov-2 is owned by the CDC.
SARS-Cov-1 …. not 2. The original SARS from back in 2003.
David Martin, the guy with the bowtie and eye of horus tattoo, has been talking about it and other patents since 2022, if not 2021.
