Where did covid come from?

Very well done piece on the origin of covid. The excerpt below is a tease and should indicate the whole article is worth reading. I skimmed here and there where I knew the issues well.

…One can only imagine Dr. Daszak’s reaction when he heard of the outbreak of the epidemic in Wuhan a few days later. He would have known better than anyone the Wuhan Institute’s goal of making bat coronaviruses infectious to humans, as well as the weaknesses in the institute’s defense against their own researchers becoming infected.

But instead of providing public health authorities with the plentiful information at his disposal, he immediately launched a public relations campaign to persuade the world that the epidemic couldn’t possibly have been caused by one of the institute’s souped-up viruses. “The idea that this virus escaped from a lab is just pure baloney. It’s simply not true,” he declared in an April 2020 interview.

Origin of Covid — Following the Clues

SPICEY UPDATE: from the same article:

The US government shares a strange common interest with the Chinese authorities: neither is keen on drawing attention to the fact that Dr. Shi’s coronavirus work was funded by the US National Institutes of Health. One can imagine the behind-the-scenes conversation in which the Chinese government says “If this research was so dangerous, why did you fund it, and on our territory too?” To which the US side might reply, “Looks like it was you who let it escape. But do we really need to have this discussion in public?”

The author of this piece, Nicholas Wade, does his utmost to be even-handed and objective in his analysis, for which he deserves credit. I wonder why, though, he left out the very real possibility that covid was made to be a bioweapon or used as a bioweapon once made and then consciously released by CCP in an act of Sunzi-style belligerence following China’s loss of the trade war with Donald Trump? That GOF research at the Wuhan Biolab was funded by NIH does not minimize this question. Rather, it may augment it as it provides further plausible deniability for the malefactors as well as creating the double-bind outlined in Wade’s words just above.

About Doctors for Covid Ethics

We are hundreds of doctors and scientists from all corners of the globe. We have written three letters to the European Medicines Agency, urgently warning of short term and long term dangers from COVID-19 vaccines, including clotting, bleeding and platelet abnormalities. We first began warning of blood-related risks before media reports of clotting led to vaccine suspensions around the world. In the absence of crucial safety data, we are demanding the immediate withdrawal of all experimental gene-based COVID-19 vaccines. We oppose vaccine passports, which threaten public health and violate Nuremberg and other protections. We are warning that ‘health passes’ place coercive pressure on citizens to submit to dangerous medical experimentation, in return for freedoms that once were human rights. Read our letters, press releases and educational materials, and watch our videos, to learn more. Follow us on Twitter @Drs4CovidEthics.

For some reason this group’s article COVID Vaccines: Necessity, Efficacy and Safety has been removed from Medium, which hosts their other material. Could be innocent reason for removal.

Covid research: “We have converted a lethal disease to a milder lung disease that is fully reversible”

“We envision this soluble ACE2 protein will attenuate the entry of coronavirus into cells in the body mainly in the respiratory system and, consequently, the serious symptoms seen in severe COVID 19,” said lead investigator Dr. Daniel Batlle, a professor of medicine at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine and a Northwestern Medicine physician. “We have converted a lethal disease to a milder lung disease that is fully reversible. The protein could be complimentary to other potential treatments or effective alone.”

DO NOT MISS THIS TALK: Geert Vanden Bossche with Bret Weinstein on covid vaccines

BE SURE TO WATCH THIS. Bret does an excellent job of making Geert’s ideas clear as a bell. Use CC (closed captions) to help with Geert’s accent. This is very important material we all should know.

UPDATE: In two places Bret indicates a very strict lockdown in USA for a couple weeks would have stopped coivd early on. This is wrong because: 1) lockdowns never work; and 2) even if you could perfectly lockdown USA and it did work here, the rest of the world would still have covid and we would be reinfected. Geert seems to have gently corrected this mistake by mentioning that variants in India and Brazil also affect us. I may have misunderstood Bret and for this reason said nothing when I posted this video. Since posting, others have independently brought up the problem, so I am adding this update. ABN

MIT scientists provide real data on covid safety

This is a very much needed study. It debunks all of the fear mongering and most of the CDC guidelines for covid safety. Be sure to read the whole article linked just below. So sad that we allowed a few people to control everything when many scientists were saying the opposite.

Opening windows or installing new fans to keep the air moving could also be just as effective or more effective than spending large amounts of money on a new filtration system, he said.

Asian males top NIH disgraced scientists list

In the vast majority of cases, Lauer reported, the person being investigated has been an Asian man in his 50s. Some three-quarters of those under investigation had active NIH grants, and nearly half had at least two grants. The 285 active grants totaled $164 million.

Lauer also presented data on the nature of the violations that NIH has uncovered. Some 70% (133) of the researchers had failed to disclose to NIH the receipt of a foreign grant, and 54% had failed to disclose participation in a foreign talent program. In contrast, Lauer said, only 9% hid ties to a foreign company, and only 4% had an undisclosed foreign patent. Some 5% of cases involved a violation of NIH’s peer-review system.

Fifty-four scientists have lost their jobs as a result of NIH probe into foreign ties

Targeting covid inflammation in lungs may yield better results than targeting whole body

These findings provide evidence for why targeting inflammation outside the lungs [against covid] has been disappointing so far. Instead, a more targeted approach that inhibits the expression and activation of complement proteins in lung cells could yield better results. For example, the researchers found that pairing Remdesivir with Ruxolitinib inhibited the complement response much more effectively than a monotherapy of the drugs independently, using an in vitro model of alveolar cells.

The “Unexpected” Reason Why COVID Antivirals Don’t Work

This may be why inhalers containing budesonide greatly lower covid symptoms: Over-the-counter asthma inhalers show 90% reduction of covid symptoms.

Dr. Harvey Risch with several important insights on vaccines and covid

Click the link below the quote to find several short video segments where Risch provides very good detail on covid and also explains why he does not understand some of Fauci’s behavior. ABN

“Herd immunity only starts with the infection curve reaches its peak,” Risch explained. “Everything after that point is more than herd immunity at 50 or 60 percent of the population immune.” 

“We need more than herd immunity, to make the infections go down quickly,” he said. “That’s what we saw in South Dakota, North Dakota, Tennessee, Rhode Island, Utah last fall in October and November.”

“They were past herd immunity well before any vaccine started,” Dr. Risch said. “They had had enough cases.” 

“Half the states in the U.S have now have more than herd immunity,” he said. “They are coming down dramatically.”
