Has anyone else looked into the things that former EcoHealth Alliance executive Dr. Andrew G. Huff (@aghuff on Twitter) has been saying since October? I am surprised that this article doesn’t even mention him, despite the fact that he worked at EHA for some of the years in question.

His Twitter thread is a mishmash of the zaniest conspiracy theories imaginable and plenty of concerning paranoia (the government is flying drones around his property to shut him up, "spooks" fired bullets through his mailbox, his vehicles were hacked, Hunter Biden funded labs in Ukraine to create pandemic viruses, and on and on) along with tons of promotion for his own book "The Truth About Wuhan - How I uncovered the biggest lie in history." He seems to have a psychology degree and a public health PhD and was a mid-level manager, who likely wouldn't have any insight at all into the research activities of the lab.. Doesn't seem like an entirely trustworthy person..

I don't believe a PhD in virology is necessary to understand that this is some risky business. Not being in-line for patent royalties (or retributions--prisoner's dilemma and all that) may have made his lips a little looser than those of his co-workers.

  Would you apologize if you were proven wrong?

    You have proof that Hunter Biden funded labs in Ukraine to create pandemic viruses? That is not any kind of idea I ever entertained in the past, but it is so outrageous that yes, I would apologize to you on behalf of OP if you had proof of it.

      According to TheDailyMail.com the claim has been partially verified. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10652127/Hunter-Biden-helped-secure-millions-funding-military-biotech-research-program-Ukraine.html https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10652127/Hunter-Bid... > The emails show Hunter helped secure millions of dollars of funding for Metabiota, a Department of Defense contractor specializing in research on pandemic-causing diseases

        To be clear - they're not "creating" viruses which is what Tucker Carlson and Vladimir Putin are both alleging.. Metabiota is a pathogen surveillance company, e.g. the exact thing that could help prevent pandemics.
