SEATTLE, May 21, 2021 /PRNewswire/
-- Physician-Scientist Dr. Steven C.
Quay, M.D., Ph.D., CEO of Atossa Therapeutics (NASDAQ: ATOS)
has been asked to brief the elected members and staff of the United
States Congress on his work on the origin of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The virtual meeting will take place from 2:00 to 3:30 pm EDT, Monday, May 24, 2021. Dr. Quay will speak about
his research on the origin of the pandemic, which he published in
January 2021 and which is available
here. In this analysis he concludes that it is beyond a reasonable
doubt the virus came from a laboratory accident, a so called
"laboratory-acquired infection", in Wuhan, China.
The briefing will also include a discussion by David Asher, a senior fellow at the Hudson
Institute, about his work at the U.S. State Department looking into
the origins of COVID-19 and the role of the Chinese government.
"While it would be a positive step for China to be open and transparent with records
from the Wuhan Institute of Virology that were not shared with the
WHO Committee during their field work in China earlier this year, there already exists
more than enough data and evidence to conclude with high certainty
that the COVID pandemic did not arise from a natural zoonosis,"
said Dr. Quay. "The purpose of this briefing is to supply relevant
congressional staff and members with the facts that are not in
dispute with respect to the pandemic, to show how these facts are
different from any prior zoonosis, to show these facts are
completely consistent with a lab-leak, and finally, to document the
genetic signatures that are consistent with 'gain-of-function'
laboratory manipulation."
Dr. Quay continued, "For over a year there has been a reticence
to consider a lab-leak as the source of this pandemic despite the
fact that most of the evidence I will present has been in the
public domain all this time. It is clear to me that only a grass
roots effort directed to the federal government will bring the
urgency to help uncover the cause of the pandemic and set the stage
to put in place the safeguards to prevent the next. You can help in
this fight by inviting your Representative and Senators to this
briefing on the leading COVID origin hypothesis, the possibility of
a laboratory acquired infection at the Wuhan Institute of
Virology."
"We owe it to the three million people who have died to get to
the bottom of this."
