>> Bill: A SCIENTIST OUT OF

HONG KONG WHO SAID SHE WAS DOING

RESEARCH ON COVID-19 IN DECEMBER

AND JANUARY THAT COULD HAVE

SAVED LIVES, BUT SHE SAYS HER

SUPERVISOR SWEPT IT UNDER THE

RUG.

DR. LI-MENG YAN SAYS SHE ESCAPED

TO THE UNITED STATES TO TELL HER

STORY.

SHE JOINS ME LIVE FOR THIS

EXCLUSIVE CHAT TODAY.

WELCOME, DOCTOR.

YOU ARRIVED IN THE U.S. AT THE

END OF APRIL.

YOU BELIEVE THE CHINESE HAVE

LIED ABOUT WHAT?

>> YES, EXACTLY.

EXACTLY.

I HAVE TO HIDE BECAUSE I KNOW

HOW THEY TREAT THE WORKERS, AND

HERE, I WILL TELL THE TRUTH OF

COVID-19.

SO I HAVE TO --

>> Bill: WHAT'S AT THE CHINESE

LIE ABOUT THAT YOU CAN PROVE?

>> OKAY, FIRST, SO AS I

MENTIONED IN THE VIDEO, OUR

GOVERNMENT ALREADY KNOWS THAT

OVER 40 PEOPLE GOT INFECTED.

AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, HUMAN TO

HUMAN TRANSITIONS ALREADY AT

THAT TIME.

THEN THEY MUTATE --

>> Bill: YOUR CLAIM IS THAT AT

THE END OF DECEMBER, THERE WAS

HUMAN TO HUMAN TRANSMISSION.

THE GOVERNMENT AND THE WORLD

HEALTH ORGANIZATION DID NOT

CAPTURE THAT UNTIL ABOUT THREE

WEEKS LATER.

IF YOU ARE RIGHT, HOW WOULD

THINGS BE DIFFERENT AROUND THE

WORLD AND HERE IN THE U.S.?

>> OKAY, I EXPLAINED TO YOU.

FIRST, THIS IS A HUGE PANDEMIC

WE HAVE SEEN IN THE WORLD.

SO, THE TIMING IS VERY, VERY

IMPORTANT.

SO IF WE COULD HAVE STOPPED

EARLY, WE COULD HAVE SAVED LIVES

LIVES.

>> Bill: OKAY.

SO YOU HAVE SENT, THEN -- YOU

INVITED YOUR HUSBAND TO COME

WITH YOU.

HE DID NOT.

YOU HAVE SPOKEN WITH THE FBI.

WHO IS INVESTIGATING YOUR STORY,

DOCTOR?

>> THE FBI -- AND MANY OTHER

PEOPLE FROM THE U.S. GOVERNMENT.

THEY HAVE CONTACTED ME.

THEY NEED TO VERIFY MY STORY.

>> Bill: OKAY, CAN YOU PROVE

IT, DR. MARK >> I HAVE THE

RECEIPTS OF THE FBI AGENT.

FROM THE LOS ANGELES AIRPORT.

SEVERAL DAYS LATER IN NEW YORK.

>> Bill: JUST TO BE CLEAR, NOT

WHETHER OR NOT YOU CAN PROVE

THAT HE TALKED TO THE FBI, OR

CAN YOU PROVE YOUR CLAIMS?

>> OH, YEAH.

HOW I COMMUNICATE WITH THE

PEOPLE IN CHINA AND ALSO BECAUSE

OF MY NETWORK.

WORKING WITH CHINA DURING

COVID-19.

AND ALSO, I CAN SHOW IT TO YOU

LATER.

>> Bill: OKAY.

SO YOU BELIEVE YOUR LIFE IS IN

JEOPARDY AND YOU WILL NOT GO

BACK TO HONG KONG.

HOW COME?

>> OF COURSE.

BECAUSE I KNOW HOW THEY TREAT US

US.

THE TRUTH, NOT ONLY ABOUT

COVID-19, BUT ALSO FOR THE OTHER

THINGS HAPPENING IN CHINA.

FOR EXAMPLE, THE PROFESSOR HAD REVIEWED IN BEIJING, PUNISHED,

REVIEWED IN BEIJING, PUNISHED,

AND ALSO, IN SHANGHAI, REVIEWING

COVID, AND IN FEBRUARY THIS YEAR

YEAR.

SHUT DOWN BY THE GOVERNMENT.

>> Bill: THE CHINESE EMBASSY

HERE IN THE U.S., THEY DON'T

KNOW WHO YOU ARE.

THEY SAY WE'VE NEVER HEARD OF

THIS PERSON, REFERRING TO YOU.

WHAT DO YOU SAY TO THAT, DOCTOR?

>> OF COURSE THEY WON'T KNOW ME

BECAUSE I AM NOT -- KNOWING WHO

WORK DIRECTLY -- BUT I WANT NO

WORK VISA, AND I AM A TEAM

MEMBER TO COMMUNICATE WITH

CHINA.

>> Bill: OKAY, LAST QUESTION

HERE.

MAYBE I CAN REFRAME THE QUESTION

QUESTION.

WAS THE U.S. GOVERNMENT, WHAT

WERE THEY ABLE TO DO WITH YOUR

INFORMATION?

>> I AM WAITING TO TELL ALL THE

THINGS I KNOW, PROVIDE ALL THE

EVIDENCE TO THE U.S. GOVERNMENT.

AND I WANT THEM TO UNDERSTAND,

AND I WANT U.S. PEOPLE TO

UNDERSTAND HOW TERRIBLE THIS IS.

IT IS NOT WHAT YOU HAVE HEARD --

EVEN THE W.H.O.

THIS IS SOMETHING DIFFERENT.

WE HAVE TO KEEP THE TRUE

EVIDENCE AND GATHER IT TO STOP

THIS PANDEMIC.

WE DON'T HAVE MUCH TIME.

>> Bill: IF YOU'RE RIGHT,

DOCTOR, YOU ARE SHOWING AN AWFUL

LOT OF COURAGE.

DOCTOR, THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.
