The Swiss embassy claimed in a Twitter post that a Swiss biologist who had been quoted in Chinese media in recent days was unlikely to exist.

Articles with remarks from "Wilson Edwards" on the origins of Covid-19 and the WHO's independence were reported by state media channels. Since then, many outlets have erased any references to him.

"While we appreciate the interest in Switzerland, the Swiss Embassy regrets to tell the Chinese audience that this news is incorrect," the Swiss embassy stated in a statement released on Twitter.

 

Based on his Facebook page, organizations such as CGTN, Shanghai Daily, and Global Times have referenced the so-called biologist. The Swiss embassy, on the other hand, stated that the Facebook account was barely two weeks old and had only three friends. "This Facebook account was most likely not created for social networking objectives," the Swiss embassy noted.

The Swiss has said, there was no register of a Swiss citizen named "Wilson Edwards" and no academic works published under that name. "Wilson Edwards" is referred to as a biologist in Switzerland in one item seen by the BBC before it was changed.

 

 

The following is a quote from the China Daily article: "[Wilson Edwards] said on his Facebook account: 'As a biologist, I've witnessed in consternation over the past months how the origin-tracing of Covid-19 was politicized.'"

All references to Wilson Edwards were removed in the revised version.

Wilson Edwards, AKA Wang Yuchen.

Another Sino-creation to influence the Western idiots who still think Facebook is a source for news.

Keep in mind that when the "virus came from infected bats in a wet market" story started to be shot full of holes by scientists, a Russian diplomat sent out a Tweet stating that the virus had been created in a US Army lab in the USA and smuggled into Wuhan where it was released.

That story would have died fairly quickly, except that a Chinese diplomat saw it and retweeted it to his "circle" of fellow diplomats, who retweeted it (and so on and so on) until the gov't controlled "state media" picked up on the story and started publishing it as the "sworn truth" about the origins of the virus.

The state media wouldn't have done that without the approval of the communist party that controls them. The CCP (Chinese Communist Party) were a bit desperate to come up with a plausible story for the origin of the virus as the "infected bat" story was becoming problematic.

So they pushed that theory for a couple weeks and then the story faded away, only to be replaced by different countries starting to call for an investigation into the the actual origin's of the virus (and China's threats of retaliation against any country that suggested China was at fault).

And that took just one tweet to get the ball rolling.

They had a unconditional inspection of the lab in question, over a fortnight. No conclusion.

America? Fort Detrick? Dont make me chuckle.

China you lose a lot of face on this story, not to mention credibility, oh sorry China never had the latter.

Yes, dear. Its two weeks old, do say if you need help keeping up, there's a love.

Does age make it irrelevant?

Nowadays yes. If scenes of desperate people falling off US airforce planes to their death are brushed off by President Biden because "c'mon man that was 3 or 4 days ago". Then yes, everything is age relevant these days. Less than 3 days is presumably the standard.
