“There is always the threat of biological warfare or of an accidental escape of lethal agents from a biological warfare laboratory or, conceivably, from a laboratory engaged in genetic engineering experiments … Biological warfare
laboratories are potential sources of a manmade “solution” to the population explosion.” — Ecoscience: Population, Resources, Environment, co-authored by President Obama’s Science Czar John P. Holdren
Eleven days before President Trump’s January 20, 2017 inauguration, the Obama-Biden White
House and President Barack Obama and Vice President Joseph Biden’s Science Czar John
Holdren, Director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP), officially
recommended that the U.S. government lift restrictions on ‘gain of function’ research that
“enhance[s] a pathogen’s virulence and/or transmissibility to produce a potential pandemic
pathogen (an enhanced PPP)”.
Holdren is the co-author of the 1973 book Human Ecology: Problems and Solutions that called
for the dismantling of Western economies to enable wealth redistribution to foreign countries
(such as China). Holdren is also the co-author of the 1977 anti-human book Ecoscience:
Population, Resources, Environment that presented methods for implementing massive-scale
human population reduction measures such as adding reproductive sterilization agents to food
and water supplies and enacting forced abortions in the United States.
The U.S. government’s restriction on gain-of-function research was put in place in 2014 after
alarmed scientists warned federal officials that experiments with advanced genetic manipulation
gain-of-function techniques used to intentionally make viruses more pathogenic and
transmissible to humans could lead to a laboratory accident and an uncontrollable pandemic.
Obama and Holdren’s decision to issue a reckless and dangerous federal recommendation to lift
the restriction on funding dangerous, indeed lethal, gain-of-function research and Obama and
Holdren’s decision to issue that guidance during the final days of the presidential transition from
the Obama administration to the Trump administration set the Trump administration up for a
potential pandemic. And that is exactly what happened.
Obama and Holdren had to have understood the danger of what they were doing and purposely
exploited it with complete disregard for the health and safety of the American people and others
around the globe.
The Obama-Biden White House, Science Czar Holdren, And Health And Human Services (HHS) Director Sylvia Matthews Burwell Recklessly Recommended Lifting Ban On Gain-Of-Function Research 11 Days Before President Trump’s Inauguration; Holdren Books Pushed Population Control, Burwell Worked For Bill Gates
The “Recommended Policy Guidance for Potential Pandemic Pathogen Care being Oversight”
issued on January 9, 2017 by the Obama-Biden White House and Holdren’s OSTP stated that
“Issuance of this policy guidance concludes the deliberative process launched in October 2014
by OSTP and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).”
The Obama-Biden Administration’s HHS Director on January 9, 2017, when the Obama-Biden
White House and Holdren’s OSTP recommended lifting the U.S. government prohibition on
gain-of-function research was Sylvia Matthews Burwell, “former President of the Global
Development Program and Chief Operating Officer of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation,”
according to the Obama White House.
After President Trump became President, Dr. Anthony Fauci’s boss, National Institutes of Health (NIH) Director Francis Collins, carried out Hodren’s official advice, issued by Holdren during the final days of the Obama-Biden Administration, to end restrictions on lethal gain-of-function research.
In the United States, the peaceful transition of power between outgoing and incoming
presidential administrations is formalized by the Presidential Transition Act of 1963.
The presidential transition process includes both classified and non-classified briefings to help
bring the incoming President and staff up to speed on information critical to national security, the
economy, science, and public health.
However, according to U.S. Army Colonel Dr. Lawrence Sellin (Ret.), President Trump was
never alerted that the U.S. government’s restriction on lethal gain-of-function research had been
lifted by Collins, who was adhering to guidance from Obama, Biden, Holdren, and Burwell.
If Holdren, Obama, and Biden knew that they had lifted the ban on deadly gain-of-function
research and intentionally withheld that information from the incoming Trump administration in
order to set Trump up, that would implicate Obama, Biden and Holdren.
The lame-duck Obama-Biden Administration White House revealed the last-minute
recommendation by Holdren’s OSTP to lift the restrictions on gain-of-function research in a
January 9, 2017 announcement titled “Recommended Policy Guidance for Potential Pandemic
Pathogen Care and Oversight.”
The new guidance released on January 9, 2017 by the Obama-Biden Administration and John
P. Holdren’s Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) states:
Agencies that adopt a review mechanism consistent with the provisions specified below
will have satisfied the requirements for lifting that agency’s moratorium on certain
gain-of-function research consistent with the October 17, 2014 statement “U.S.
Government Gain-of-Function Deliberative Process and Research Funding Pause on
Selected Gain-of-Function Research Involving Influenza, MERS, and SARS Viruses.”
On December 19, 2017, the National Institutes of Health (NIH), specifically in response to the
guidance released on January 9, 2017 by the Obama-Biden Administration via Holdren’s OSTP,
published NIH’s “Notice Announcing the Removal of the Funding Pause for Gain-of-Function
Research Projects.”
