Why Do SARS and the Wuhan Virus Look So Similar?――Masahiro Miyazaki and Shi Ping Discuss Suspicions Surrounding China-Origin Viruses
Based on a dialogue between Masahiro Miyazaki and Shi Ping, this essay examines the similarities between SARS and the Wuhan virus in their outbreak and spread, suspicions of biological and chemical weapons, the theory of laboratory leakage, the Chinese government’s concealment and blame-shifting, and the WHO’s pro-China posture. It also stresses the need for Japanese companies to urgently review supply chains overly dependent on China.

Furthermore, Professor Sergei Kolesnikov of the Russian Academy of Pharmaceutical Sciences pointed out, “This virus is a pathogen synthesized from the mumps virus and the measles virus, and is not something that exists in nature.”
The following is a continuation from a dialogue book between Mr. Masahiro Miyazaki, one of the world’s foremost experts on China, whom it is no exaggeration to call the living Tadao Umesao of our time, and Mr. Shi Ping.
Mr. Shi Ping was born Chinese, graduated from Peking University, and after that, while studying at Kobe University, visited Arashiyama at the invitation of a friend, where he was struck by divine revelation and naturalized as a Japanese citizen.
As I have already written, I encountered him several years ago at Tofukuji Temple when the autumn leaves were at their peak, exchanged words with him, and exchanged business cards.
This essay proves that the Japanese broadcasting stations, beginning with the Asahi Shimbun and NHK, are not even fragments of journalists.
They are “the unforgiven.”
All readers of this essay who are also viewers of news programs such as NHK’s should feel anger and contempt for them from the bottom of their hearts.
The preface is omitted.
The Course of the “Wuhan Virus” Resembles SARS
Miyazaki
Since it may not be an animal infection, I would like to touch a little on SARS, for which, according to the WHO, the death toll in mainland China was 349.
Its course is extremely similar to that of the present “Wuhan virus.”
To begin with, the SARS infection started with one physician.
This physician lived in Guangzhou, the capital of Guangdong Province in China, but in February 2003 he entered Hong Kong to attend a relative’s wedding and stayed at the Metropole Hotel in the Kowloon district.
During this stay, his condition worsened, and he was admitted to the Prince of Wales Hospital.
This physician left behind the words, “This is not an ordinary cold. I want to be isolated,” South China Morning Post, March 27, 2003, and died on March 14.
This is a case similar to that of Dr. Li Wenliang of Wuhan City, who sounded the alarm about the present Wuhan virus.
It is believed that in the hospital where this physician was admitted, SARS infected 50 people, including patients in the same hospital room, nurses, and doctors, as well as six hotel employees and guests, and that the infection then spread throughout Hong Kong.
The response of the Hong Kong government was delayed, and the city fell into a state of panic.
This is because the Guangdong provincial government announced the SARS outbreak on February 11, but about three months before that, the outbreak of SARS had already been reported to administrative agencies.
Then, together with this announcement, the Guangdong provincial government explained that the situation would soon calm down, but the SARS contamination expanded.
The Chinese government, too, with then Health Minister Zhang Wenkang, made a great show of saying, “SARS is no big deal. I declare that China is safe,” but behind this was the fear that, if fear over the spread of SARS infection became widespread, it would hinder corporate production activities and deal a major blow to the Chinese economy.
This point, too, resembles the present situation with the “Wuhan virus.”
While the whole world was trembling at the threat of SARS infection, on May 7 of that year, the United States House of Representatives held a noteworthy hearing.
At that hearing, Democratic Congresswoman DeGette expressed concern, asking, “Is there no possibility that SARS could be used as a biological and chemical weapon?”
That concern shook the American government.
ABC News then reported that Nikolai Filatov, a Russian biochemist and director of an infectious disease center, said, “Judging from the speed of infection and the evolution of the infection process, the SARS virus was manufactured by human hands,” ABC News, April 11, 2003.
Furthermore, Professor Sergei Kolesnikov of the Russian Academy of Pharmaceutical Sciences pointed out, “This virus is a pathogen synthesized from the mumps virus and the measles virus, and is not something that exists in nature.”
He also made clear that “this virus leaked outside from a laboratory by some chance,” Gazeta Daily.
And the decisive statement came when Julie Gerberding, then director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said at a press conference on April 17, “The SARS virus does not resemble any animal virus we possess.”
Furthermore, the Jamestown Foundation, a think tank in Washington, D.C., announced that “China had been advancing research and development of biological and chemical weapons even before it joined the Biological and Chemical Weapons Convention.”
At that time, the question also arose as to why infected persons were housed in People’s Liberation Army hospitals in the early stages.
People’s Liberation Army hospitals are not hospitals where just anyone can easily receive treatment.
They are centered on military personnel, Communist Party cadres, and their relatives, and it is extremely rare for ordinary citizens to be hospitalized there.
Was it not because there was something to hide that they were not placed in ordinary hospitals?
What was it that had to be hidden?
This is speculation, but it is that SARS may have been something the People’s Liberation Army had been developing as a biological and chemical weapon.
They did not want the world to know that.
Many readers may think this is absurd.
However, please think carefully.
Why did Xi Jinping initially try to conceal the present “Wuhan virus” as well?
Was it not precisely because it was a biological and chemical weapon secretly developed by China that they did not want it to be known?
Perhaps that is overthinking.
But I think it is worth considering as a mental exercise.
Also, although this is not very well known, there have been cases in the past in which a virus from a biological and chemical weapon leaked outside and caused an accident.
In 1979, in Sverdlovsk, Russia, Ken Alibek, a scientist who had been involved in the development, blew the whistle that a human accident caused by biological weapons had occurred.
One part of that is detailed in Biohazard, Futami Shobo, later retitled Why Did We Create Biological Weapons? and published as a Futami paperback.
In the Soviet Union, they were creating terrifying biological weapons such as anthrax bacteria, plague bacteria, smallpox virus, and Ebola hemorrhagic fever virus.
Then-President Yeltsin also acknowledged this matter.
Therefore, the terrifying weapon known as biological and chemical weapons does exist.
Also, the Beijing government is now spreading disinformation that the present “Wuhan virus” was scattered by the American military, but at the time of SARS as well, the Chinese media conveyed an “American conspiracy theory.”
The claim was that the SARS virus was intended to attack the center of the Chinese economy and stop its economic expansion.
But that is a complete false accusation.
In any case, the SARS problem unfolded in a way similar to the outbreak and spread of the present “Wuhan virus.”
At the time, the WHO presented the view that “the SARS virus arose in nature,” but this must be called extremely suspicious.
Therefore, as the saying goes, “What happens twice will happen three times,” and I think there is a high possibility that similar virus disturbances originating in China will occur again in the future.
That is precisely why Japanese companies must urgently review the supply chains that have been biased toward China.
Shi Ping
As to whether the “Wuhan virus” is a biological weapon, we must wait for future research by specialists to know the precise facts, but as the aforementioned Mr. Montagnier says, it may not be a naturally occurring virus.
Yuan Zhiming of the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Wuhan virus research institute denied that such a thing was absolutely possible, but that too is suspicious.
In short, I think there is a strong probability that it is a synthetic virus created by the Wuhan Institute of Virology for some purpose.
Or we cannot deny the possibility that the Institute of Virology collected it from bats or other living organisms and then artificially processed it.
Moreover, the Beijing government said something outrageous about the “Wuhan virus” issue.
As Mr. Miyazaki mentioned a little earlier, with regard to the “Wuhan virus,” just as with SARS, they are saying that it was caused by an American conspiracy.
On March 12, Deputy Foreign Ministry Spokesman Zhao Lijian said on Twitter, “It may have been the U.S. military that brought the new virus to Wuhan.”
Furthermore, at a press conference on March 16, spokesman Geng Shuang responded to President Trump’s remarks that “it would have been better if we had been informed earlier, from China,” and “the virus came 100 percent from China,” by saying, “We are strongly indignant and firmly opposed to linking China with the new virus and smearing China,” and arrogantly declared, “The United States should stop its unjustified accusations against China.”
Miyazaki
With that statement, America became even angrier.
That is a method China often uses.
Looking at the flow so far, as Mr. Shi points out, it is like a thief shouting “Thief!” while running away.
A thief runs away pretending to chase the thief, does he not?
It is exactly the same pattern.
Shi Ping
China has repeated that pattern since long ago.
There is a proverb, “zei han zhuo zei,” meaning “the thief cries, catch the thief.”
“Zei” means thief.
“Han” means to shout, and “zhuo” means to catch.
When a thief runs away, he shouts, “That guy is the thief.”
When an accomplice runs away, he points in the opposite direction and says, “He ran that way.”
There is no way such a China will tell the truth to the world or apologize over the present “Wuhan virus.”
Another unforgivable thing the Beijing government is doing is creating the illusion inside China that the “Wuhan virus” has passed its peak and has begun to settle down, thereby deceiving all the Chinese people.
At the same time, it is proclaiming to people around the world that “China has brought it under control.”
Xi Jinping inspected Wuhan City on March 10 and showed confidence in the settling of the situation, saying, “The momentum of the spread of the virus has basically been contained. The situation is gradually moving in a good direction.”
As mentioned above, this was clearly groundwork for a “declaration of containment,” an image operation.
And as if to give its seal of approval to that, on the following day, March 11, the WHO declared that the novel coronavirus, COVID-19, was a “pandemic.”
The meaning behind that was……China is somehow bringing it under control, but other countries will now be in serious trouble.
Miyazaki
The WHO is moving exactly as Xi Jinping wishes.
It is nothing less than a puppet.
