In this compelling whodunnit, Elaine Dewar reads the science,
follows the money, and connects the geopolitical interests to the
spin. When the first TV newscast described a SARS-like flu
affecting a distant Chinese metropolis, investigative journalist
Elaine Dewar started asking questions: Was SARS-CoV-2 something
that came from nature, as leading scientists insisted, or did it
come from a lab, and what role might controversial experiments have
played in its development? Why was Wuhan the pandemic's ground
zero-and why, on the other side of the Atlantic, had two
researchers been marched out of a lab in Winnipeg by the RCMP? Why
were governments so slow to respond to the emerging pandemic, and
why, now, is the government of China refusing to cooperate with the
World Health Organization? And who, or what, is DRASTIC? Locked
down in Toronto with the world at a standstill, Dewar pored over
newspapers and magazines, preprints and peer-reviewed journals,
email chains and blacked-out responses to access to information
requests; she conducted Zoom interviews and called telephone
numbers until someone answered as she hunted down the truth of the
virus's origin. In this compelling whodunnit, she reads the
science, follows the money, connects the geopolitical interests to
the spin-and shows how leading science journals got it wrong,
leaving it to interested citizens and junior scientists to pull out
the truth.
