Chernoh Bah on Possible Lab Origin of the 2014 Ebola Outbreak -- Video and Audio
The founder of Africanist Press charges "a cover-up or obfuscation of the actual chain of events that laid the foundation for the West African Ebola outbreak."
Journalist Chernoh Alpha M. Bah is author of the book The Ebola Outbreak in West Africa. I recently interviewed him about serious problems with the establishment claims regarding the origin of the 2014 outbreak which killed 11,000 people and caused a global crisis.
The video interview is available on Rokfin, Rumble — and here’s audio:

Bah has written of the German team which did much to instill the establishment narrative that the outbreak was the result of a toddler playing with bats in a village: “it is difficult not to interpret the ‘zoonotic origin of the West African Ebola epidemic’ narrative advanced by Fabian Leendertz and his team as part of a cover-up or obfuscation of the actual chain of events that laid the foundation for the West African Ebola outbreak.”
Bah is the founder of Africanist Press. His recent work exposing corruption in Sierra Leone has resulted in threats of death and charges of treason as the Committee to Protect Journalists has reported.
I recently wrote the in-depth piece “Did West Africa’s Ebola Outbreak of 2014 Have a Lab Origin?” with virologist Jonathan Latham of the Bioscience Resource Project which builds on Bah’s critical work. See the summary of our findings and connections to Covid here.
Bah is currently finishing his PhD dissertation in the U.S., which we talk about for a few minutes before doing a deep dive on the 2014 outbreak. We also discuss the global and political context of our work.
