According to The Guardian,[4] scientists are investigating to determine whether the virus might be able to spread over long distances this way. It’s still unknown whether the virus can remain viable if hitching a ride on particles of pollution, or whether this route would distribute sufficient quantities to actually make someone sick if they inhaled it. <br /><br />Also according to The Guardian: [5]<br /><br />“Italian scientists used standard techniques to collect outdoor air pollution samples at one urban and one industrial site in Bergamo province and identified a gene highly specific to COVID-19 in multiple samples. The detection was confirmed by blind testing at an independent laboratory …<br /><br />A statistical analysis [6,7] by Setti’s team suggests higher levels of particle pollution could explain higher rates of infection in parts of northern Italy before a lockdown was imposed, an idea supported by another preliminary analysis. [8] The region is one of the most polluted in Europe.<br /><br />The potential role of air pollution particles is linked to the broader question of how the coronavirus is transmitted. Large virus-laden droplets from infected people’s coughs and sneezes fall to the ground within a meter or two.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"> But much smaller droplets, less than 5 microns in diameter, <b><i><u>can remain in the air for minutes to hours and travel further …</u></i></b><br /><br />Researchers say the importance of potential airborne transmission, and the possible boosting role of pollution particles, mean<b><i> it must not be ruled out without evidence.”</i></b><br /><br /><br />The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s October 5, 2020, scientific brief [9,10] on SARS-CoV-2 points out the virus can spread either through large respiratory droplets (which is the only potential benefit of wearing a mask) or through small airborne particles that “<b><i>can remain suspended for many minutes to hours </i></b>and travel far from the source on air currents. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"> ”In 2019, researchers discovered bacteria can be carried thousands of miles through the air, [11] which complicates the containment of bacterial outbreaks. Other studies have demonstrated that antibiotic-resistant bacteria can scatter long distances by piggybacking on feedlot dust. [12]<br /><br />An article [13] by BGR, published in April 2020, found walkers, runners and cyclists may need to maintain a distance of up to 66 feet in order to avoid exposure when exercising outdoors. BGR writes: [14]<br /><br />“The research, [15] which was conducted by an international team including scientists in Belgium and the Netherlands, studied the impacts of current social distancing mandates when applied to outdoor exercise …<br /><br />Outdoor trails present a unique challenge, as individuals are breathing heavily and potentially even coughing or sneezing along the way. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"> If a second person is following behind, even at what would be considered a ‘safe’ distance for indoor interaction, they would quickly come into contact with particles in the air that could contain the virus …</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br />Based on the simulations and data, the team suggests that individuals who are walking outdoors should maintain a minimum of four meters (13 feet) of separation.<br /><br />Runners and casual bikers should try to stay at least 10 meters apart (33 feet), and fast cyclists should attempt to remain at least 20 meters (66 feet) from others using the same trails. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"> The researchers also note that avoiding the direct path of the person in front of you is vital, even when maintaining these distances.”<br />Nowhere to Run, Nowhere to Hide<br /><br />The irony here is that the authors make it sound as though you can somehow avoid the virus provided you follow certain rules, like staying a certain distance away and avoiding having another person directly in front of you. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><b><i>Logic would tell you that once the virus is in the air, it’s going to move with the air in whatever direction the air is moving.</i></b><br /><b><br /><u><span style="color: #990000;">Can you hide from the wind, from air? </span></u></b></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /><b><i>If these studies tell us anything, it’s that we cannot hide from this virus.

The Chinese government is not being transparent enough.”<br /><br />She stressed that the Chinese have not cooperated with the international community in sharing critical information, which is one more reason the Pentagon should have tested the athletes.<br /><br />“I feel strongly about going with a high prevalence to get tested,” she said.<br /><br />New data continues to emerge that COVID-19 had already infected people in Wuhan in mid- or early November of 2019, weeks <b><i><u>after the games’ conclusion.</u></i></b> </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Recent <a href="https://dash.harvard.edu/handle/1/42669767">research released from Harvard and Boston University</a> suggests COVID-19 might have been present in China <b><i>as early as last August,</i></b> well before the illness was first publicly identified in Wuhan on December 31.</span></p><span style="font-family: arial;">Athletes who participated from other nations—both U.S. allies like France and Italy and adversaries like Iran—have reported suffering from COVID-19 symptoms. <br />Some <a href="https://en.radiofarda.com/a/eleven-athletes-in-iran-have-died-of-coronavirus-infection/30502659.html">Iranian athletes died</a> from COVID-19, including some who were in Wuhan, according to news reports not verified by Tehran.<br /><br />The Pentagon’s reluctance to test athletes returning from Wuhan was not unique. No other nation’s military appears to have tested their participants in the 2019 World Military Games specifically for COVID-19. French doctors examined their athletes upon their return from the games as part of overall exams.<br /><br />When asked why the athletes and support staff who had been in China were not screened as a precaution once the COVID-19 threat was known in January, Defense Secretary Mark Esper said at the end of an April 14 press conference: <b><i>“I am not aware of what you are talking about.”</i></b><br /><br />The question and response were not included in the Pentagon’s official written transcript of the briefing, as is the normal procedure. </span><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /><b><i>The official video of the briefing goes silent when the question is asked and Esper can be seen—but not heard—reacting to the question.<br /></i></b><br />The full audio and video exchange <a href="https://www.c-span.org/video/?471201-1/defense-secretary-esper-general-milley-coronavirus-news-conference">remains on the C-SPAN video</a> of the event.<br /><br /><b><i>Spokespersons for the various service branches, all of which were represented in Wuhan, either declined to comment on the subject or said that no COVID-19 screening was required for anyone with possible exposure prior to February.<br /></i></b>The 2019 Military World Games, branded the “Peace Games,” was the largest military sports event ever held in China. More than 9,000 athletes representing the militaries of more than 100 countries competed in 27 sports, ranging from golf to parachuting.<br /><br />The issue of testing the athletes and support personnel, who spent weeks preparing for and participating in the games at what is generally acknowledged as ground zero for COVID-19, has grown in importance since <a href="https://dash.harvard.edu/handle/1/42669767">medical reports</a> have questioned the official start date for the outbreak. A <a href="https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1094347/world-military-games-illness-covid-19">handful</a> of <a href="https://www.web24.news/u/2020/05/military-world-games-in-wuhan-in-focus-we-are-all-sick.html">global news outlets</a> have highlighted the issue.<br /><br />Scores of athletes from other nations, including France and Italy, who participated in the games <a href="https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/french-army-returned-wuhan-military-21988912">reported symptoms</a> consistent with COVID-19 upon their return to their home countries. <br /><br />In retrospect, some doctors said those athletes suffered from COVID-19 and in some cases infected others, according to <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8291755/Did-European-athletes-catch-coronavirus-competing-World-Military-Games-Wuhan-OCTOBER.html">news reports</a>. <br /><br />French Olympic silver medal–winning pentathlete Elodie Clouvel and her boyfriend fell ill after taking part in the Wuhan games. Asked on local TV channel Television Loire 7 on March 25 if she was worried about the prospect of potentially having to spend the summer in Japan for the Olympics, Clouvel said, “No because I think that with [Valentin Belaud, her partner] we have already had the coronavirus, well the COVID-19.”<br /><br />Clouvel, 31, went on to explain: “We were in Wuhan for the World Military Games at the end of October. <b><i>And afterwards, we all fell ill.</i></b> Valentin missed three days of training. Me, I was sick too … I had things I had never had before. We weren’t particularly worried because no one was talking about it yet.”<br /><br />She added, <b><i>“A lot of athletes at the World Military Games were very ill. We were recently in touch with a military doctor who told us, ‘I think you had it because a lot of people from this delegation were ill.’” </i></b><br /><br />Renowned Italian fencer Matteo Tagliariol <a href="https://www.corriere.it/sport/20_maggio_07/tagliariol-dopo-wuhan-mi-sono-ammalato-l-infezione-ha-colpito-polmoni-209e7f6a-9049-11ea-b981-878bbbd902eb.shtml?refresh_ce-cp">told Corriere della Sera</a> newspaper that he fell ill almost immediately after his return from Wuhan:<br /><br /><b><i>“When we arrived in Wuhan we almost all got sick,</i></b>” said Tagliariol. “But the worst was the return home. After a week I had a very high fever, I felt that I wasn’t breathing,” added Tagiariol, 37. “The sickness didn’t even go away with antibiotics, I recovered after three weeks and remained debilitated for a long time. Then my son and my partner got sick. When they started talking about the virus, I said to myself: I got it too.”<br /><br />WHY SUCH A TESTY PENTAGON REACTION AND MEDIA SILENCE ABOUT THIS?<br /><br />BECAUSE, IRONICALLY, the Chinese government has <a href="https://thediplomat.com/2020/03/chinese-foreign-ministry-spokesperson-implies-us-military-brought-coronavirus-to-wuhan/">accused the U.S. military</a> of importing COVID-19 to China during the Wuhan games—feeding "disproven rumors" that the virus was there simultaneously with the athletes. <br /><br /><b><a href="https://www.blogger.com/#">Chinese Diplomat Accuses US of Spreading Coronavirus</a> </b></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">In his Thursday tweets, Zhao Lijian, a spokesperson of China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA), accused the U.S. of spreading the virus to the city of Wuhan in Hubei province, the epicenter of China's coronavirus outbreak.<br /><br />"It's possible that the U.S. military brought the virus to Wuhan. The U.S. has to be transparent and make public its figures. The U.S. owes us an explanation," he added.<br /><br />Zhao's comments echoed a rumored conspiracy, widely circulated in China, that U.S. military personnel had brought the virus to China during their participation of the 2019 Military World Games in Wuhan last October.<br /><br />That conspiracy theory followed suspicion raised by U.S. Senator Tom Cotton and others that the virus had originated from the Wuhan P4 lab, a high-security biochemical lab affiliated with the Chinese Academy of Sciences. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: arial;">As national spokesperson, for Zhao to insinuate that the United States military had a role in bringing COVID-19 to Wuhan raises an uncomfortable specter for U.S.-China relations. </span><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br />It also mirrors the arguments raised by some in the United States — <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/02/16/tom-cotton-coronavirus-conspiracy/">including prominent lawmakers</a> — that SARS-nCoV-2 might have been bio-engineered. </span><div><span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Noto Serif", serif; font-size: 18px;"> </span><span style="font-family: arial;"><br />Zhao's comments also came one day after U.S. National Security Adviser Robert O'Brien asserted an initial cover-up of the virus in China "cost the world community two months" and exacerbated the global outbreak. <br /><br />In response to O'Brien's claim, another MOFA spokesman, Geng Shuang, Thursday called it a "smear on the Chinese government and its people.<br /><br />Zhao's comments drew a whirlwind of mixed reaction on Twitter.<br /><br />Some people, apparently from China, agreed with Zhao's assessment, while others called him a "shame."<br /><br />"When will the U.S. stop escaping reality? This is outrageous," Lin Shaojing wrote in response to Zhao's tweet.<br /><br /><br />Zhao's narratives likely suggest China is trying to shift the blame, since public resentment toward the leadership's mishandling of the outbreak hasn't subsided, he said.<br /><br />"So, one answer is to … certainly accusing the U.S. of being responsible of everything [so] as to call on the people to point to another threat and enemy for diversion of the people's resentment," Cabestan said. <br /><br />Also, the Communist leadership is likely divided over how to ease public anger<br />The U.S. came in 35th in the Military World Games, behind nations like Iran, Finland, and Slovenia.

Based on what proof?) say an apocalyptic bird flu could wipe out half of humanity<br /></a><br /> Dr. Michael Gregor, a scientist and physician who once <b><i>testified for Oprah Winfrey in her “meat defamation” trial</i></b>, warns that an apocalyptic virus emanating from overcrowded and unsanitary chicken farms has the potential to wipe out half of humanity.<br /><br />Greger, a vegan, writes that “In the ‘hurricane scale’ of epidemics, COVID-19, with a death rate of around half of one percent, rates a measly Category Two, possibly a Three. … The Big One, the typhoon to end all typhoons, will be 100 times worse when it comes, a Category Five producing a fatality rate of one in two. … Civilization as we know it would cease.”<br /><br />While environmentalists warned earlier this month that the world would face another stronger epidemic if we continue to have <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/05/02/stop-destroying-the-environment-or-face-deadlier-pandemics-scientists-warn/">contact with wildlife</a>, Gregor places the blame squarely on chickens.<br /><br />“With pandemics explosively spreading a virus from human to human, it’s never a matter of if, but when,” Greger writes.<br /><br />Citing the bird-based Spanish Flu outbreak of 1920, and the H5N1 outbreak in Hong Kong in 1997, Gregor writes, “the worry is that the virus never stands still but is always mutating. … This is the monster lurking in the undergrowth, the one that makes epidemiologists shudder.” <br /><br />Gregor writes we have to change the entire system – away from large scale farms where chickens are fed antibiotics and are crammed together and pass diseases from one to another easily to smaller, free-range farms … and eventually not eating chickens or ducks at all.<br /><br />“The pandemic cycle could theoretically be broken for good,” he writes. “Bird flu could be grounded.”<br /><br /><b><i>But until then, he warns, “as long as there is poultry, there will be pandemics.

Another possibility being kicked around is that the infection spread through a live-vaccine trial. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">A third option: a deliberate release as a bio-weapon.<br /><br />As noted in a <b><i>2009 New England Journal of Medicine</i></b> review article, which provided a historical perspective on the emergence of H1N1 viruses: [52] <br />"Even though human influenza A (H1N1) virus had not circulated since 1957 and the swine influenza A (H1N1) virus that had been identified at <b><u>Fort Dix</u></b> did not extend outside the base, in November 1977, the H1N1 strain reemerged in the former Soviet Union, Hong Kong, and northeastern China.<br /><br /><b><i>This strain affected primarily young people in a relatively mild presentation. </i></b></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><b><i>Careful study of the genetic origin of the virus showed that it was closely related to a 1950 strain but dissimilar to influenza A (H1N1) strains from both 1947 and 1957.</i></b><br /><br /><b><i><span style="color: #990000;">This finding suggested that the 1977 outbreak strain had been preserved since 1950.</span></i></b> <i>The reemergence was probably an accidental release from a laboratory source in the setting of waning population immunity to H1 and N1 antigens</i>."<br /><br /><b>Can history repeat itself? </b></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">There are no guarantees that it can't or won't, which is why it's so important we find out where SARS-CoV-2 really came from. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><i><b>As noted by the National Review, [53] getting to the bottom of the origin of SARS-CoV-2 is crucial if we want to prevent a similar pandemic in the future:</b></i><br /><br />"If it originated from a person eating bat or pangolin at a wet market, then we need to take steps to ensure that bat and pangolin consumption and trade stops …<br /><br />Bat guano is used as fertilizer in many countries, and that guano can be full of viruses … If this is the source of the virus, we need to get people to stop going into caves and using the guano as fertilizer …<br /><br /><b>In a strange way, the 'lab accident' scenario is one of the most reassuring explanations.

However, more evidence is required before a conclusive judgement can be made one way or the other.</i><br /><i><br /><b>Conclusions and Outlook</b><br /><br />The history of gain‐of‐function research is one of science's most significant and troubling, especially since the Nuremberg Code, research scientists’ Hippocratic Oath, dictates that experiments that could endanger human life should only occur if the potential humanitarian benefits significantly outweigh the risks.[<a href="https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/bies.202000091#bies202000091-bib-0054">54</a>] It seems ill‐advised to rule out the possibility that gain‐of‐function techniques such as serial passage may have played a role in the creation of SARS‐CoV‐2 until more definitive data are collected, and when the Center for Arms Control and Non‐Proliferation has calculated that the odds that any given potential pandemic pathogen might leak from a lab could be better than one in four.[<a href="https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/bies.202000091#bies202000091-bib-0055">55</a>]<br /><br />The release of the H1N1 Swine Flu in 1977 first initiated the discussion about the moral and physical hazards involved with dual‐use gain‐of‐function research, and it was the creation of extraordinarily virulent H5N1 Bird Flu strains—using the same technique of serial passage through an animal host in a lab—that contributed to the NIH imposing a moratorium on dual‐use gain‐of‐function research from 2014 until 2017, after which it was relaxed explicitly to allow influenza strains as well as coronaviruses to be studied. This moratorium was meant to limit “the potential to create, transfer, or use an enhanced potential pandemic pathogen.”[<a href="https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/bies.202000091#bies202000091-bib-0056">56</a>] However, just as an increased pace of research into influenza vaccines increased the odds that a leak would occur leading up to the 1977 release of H1N1 Swine Flu, which is the most often cited as originating from a laboratory leak,[<a href="https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/bies.202000091#bies202000091-bib-0008">8</a>] it would follow that an increased pace of research into coronaviruses over the past few years would have increased the odds that a lab leak of one would occur; after all, these viruses were pinpointed back in 2006 as a viable vector for an HIV vaccine [<a href="https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/bies.202000091#bies202000091-bib-0057">57</a>] and research into a pan‐coronavirus vaccine has been ongoing for decades.<br /><br />And whether or not gain‐of‐function research is determined to have played a role in SARS‐CoV‐2's emergence, the fact that it creates opportunities for pandemic viruses to leak out of labs calls for a re‐examination of the moratorium against this practice, because the emergence of this novel coronavirus has demonstrated that the international public health community is not prepared to handle the leak of a pandemic virus. Furthermore, none of the gain‐of‐function research conducted since 2014 has provided humanity with any tools at all to fight back against the ongoing pandemic caused by this novel coronavirus."</i></span><div class="article-section__content" style="background-color: white;

With this much uncertainty in dealing with the very lives of people, it is very unscientific and extremely dangerous to use such a questionable procedure as vaccination.</p><p>Many vaccines also cause other diseases besides the one for which they are given. For instance, smallpox vaccine often causes syphilis, paralysis, leprosy, and cancer. (See the chapters on smallpox and plagues.) Polio shots, diphtheria toxin-antitoxin, typhoid vaccine, as well as measles, tetanus and all other shots often cause various other stages of disease such as post-vaccinal encephalitis (inflammation of the brain,) paralysis, spinal meningitis, blindness, cancer (sometimes within two years,) tuberculosis, (two to twenty years after the shot,) arthritis, kidney disease, heart disease (heart failure sometimes within minutes after the shot and sometimes several hours later.) Nerve damage and many other serious conditions also follow the injections.</p><p>When several shots are given (different vaccines) within a few days or a few weeks apart, they often trigger intensified cases of all the diseases at once, because the body cannot handle such a large amount of deadly poison being injected directly into the bloodstream. The doctors call it a new disease and proceed to suppress the symptoms.</p><p>When poison is taken by the mouth, the internal defense system has a chance to quickly eject some of it by vomiting, but when the poisons are shot directly into the body, bypassing all the natural safeguards, these dangerous poisons circulate immediately throughout the entire body in a matter of seconds and keep on circulating until all the cells are poisoned.</p><p>I heard that <i>seven men dropped dead in a doctor’s office after being vaccinated. </i>This was in an army camp, so I wrote to the Government for verification. They sent me the report of U.S. Secretary of War, Henry L. Stimson. The report not only verified the report of the seven who dropped dead from the vaccines, but it stated that there had been 63 deaths and 28,585 cases of hepatitis as a direct result of the yellow fever vaccine during only 6 months of the war. That was only one of the 14 to 25 shots given the soldiers. We can imagine the damage that all these shots did to the men. (See the chapter on What Vaccinations Did to Our Soldiers.)</p><div><p>Some of the soldiers may have been in Spain before coming home, but their diseases originated in their own home-based U.S. Army Camps. Our medical men still use that same dodge. When their own vaccines (required for travel) cause vaccine diseases abroad they use this as grounds for a scare campaign to stampede people into the vaccination centers.

The reason: charges that the agency deliberately fomented swine flu hysteria [in 2009]. “The world is going through a real pandemic. The description of it as a fake is wrong and irresponsible,” the <a href="http://www.who.int/mediacentre/news/statements/2010/h1n1_pandemic_20100122/en/index.html">agency claims</a> on its Web site. A WHO spokesman declined to specify who or what gave this “description,” but the primary accuser is hard to ignore."<br /><br />The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE), a human rights watchdog, is <a href="http://assembly.coe.int/ASP/NewsManager/EMB_NewsManagerView.asp?ID=5209">publicly investigating</a> the WHO’s motives in declaring a pandemic. Indeed, the chairman of its influential health committee, epidemiologist Wolfgang Wodarg, <a href="http://www.wodarg.de/english/3013320.html">has declared that</a> the “false pandemic” is “one of the greatest medicine scandals of the century.”<br /></i><br />"<a href="https://www.globalresearch.ca/who-faked-pandemic/5708013">Even within the agency,</a> the director of the WHO Collaborating Center for Epidemiology in Munster, Germany, Dr. Ulrich Kiel, has <a href="http://assembly.coe.int/ASP/NewsManager/EMB_NewsManagerView.asp?ID=5209&L=2">essentially labeled</a> the pandemic a hoax. “We are witnessing a gigantic misallocation of resources <a href="http://assembly.coe.int/ASP/NewsManager/EMB_NewsManagerView.asp?ID=5209&L=2">[$18 billion</a> so far] in terms of public health,” he said.<br /><br />They’re right. This wasn’t merely over-cautiousness or simple misjudgment. The pandemic declaration and all the Klaxon-ringing since reflect sheer dishonesty motivated not by medical concerns but political ones.<br /><br />Unquestionably, swine flu has proved to be vastly milder than ordinary seasonal flu. It kills at a third to a tenth the rate, <a href="http://www.cdc.gov/media/transcripts/2009/t091210.htm">according to</a> U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates.

They plan instead on reviewing the data once it’s widely administered and proven safe.<br />Seventy-six percent of the vaccine-hesitant healthcare workers cited the “fast-tracked vaccine development” as a primary reason for their concerns. <br /><br /><br />BLACKS AND LATINOS PASS ON TAKING VACCINE<br />A new collaborative <a href="https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f85f5a156091e113f96e4d3/t/5fb72481b1eb2e6cf845457f/1605837977495/VaccineHesitancy_BlackLatinx_Final_11.19.pdf">survey project</a> by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and Langer Research found that Black and Latinx Americans are overwhelmingly concerned about the coming COVID vaccine.<br /><br />The survey, as <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2020/11/23/covid-vaccine-hesitancy/">reported in the Washington post</a>, claims to be “one of the largest and most rigorous conducted on this topic to date.” It found that only 14% of Black Americans trust that a vaccine will be safe, while only 34% of Latinx Americans trust it will be safe.<br /><br />The survey also found, in the context of COVID, only 19% percent of Black Americans trust drug companies, while less than a third trust the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to “look after their interests.”<br /><br />According to the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, a group of medical experts who advise the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), fears surrounding the painful or harmful side-effects of the COVID vaccine are <a href="https://www.nydailynews.com/coronavirus/ny-covid-coronavirus-vaccine-may-give-flulike-symptoms-immune-response-20201124-auhgnjjmt5hpjmrvuru2g2vsda-story.html">rooted in reality</a>.<br /><br />According to <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2020/11/23/covid-vaccine-cdc-should-warn-people-the-side-effects-from-shots-wont-be-walk-in-the-park-.html">CNBC</a>, during a virtual Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices’ meeting on Nov. 23, Dr. Sandra Fryhofer told fellow CDC officials that patients need to be aware that the side effects from the COVID vaccines “will not be a walk in the park.” Fryhofer acknowledged that side effects from the vaccines have been reported to mimic symptoms of a mild case of COVID, including muscle pain, fever, chills and headache.<br /><br />Fryhofer, who explained that both Pfizer’s and Moderna’s COVID vaccines require two doses, worries that her patients might not come back for a second dose after experiencing potentially unpleasant side effects after the first shot.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br />As a participant of the Moderna vaccine trials noted “<a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2020/07/06/coronavirus-vaccine-trial-patient/?arc404=true">it was the sickest I’ve ever been</a>.”<br /><br />Typically, vaccines take between <b><span style="color: #990000;">8 to 10 years to develop,</span></b> Dr. Emily Erbelding, an infectious disease expert at National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/31/us/coronavirus-vaccine-timetable-concerns-experts-invs/index.html">told CNN</a> in an article titled, “The timetable for a coronavirus vaccine is <b><span style="color: #990000;">18 months. </span></b></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Experts say that’s risky.”</span></b><br /><br /></span><p style="border: 0px;

Bush Pentagon employed teams of former Generals to pose as "independent analysts" in the media while <a href="http://www.salon.com/opinion/greenwald/2008/05/10/analysts/index.html">secretly coordinating their talking points and messaging about wars and detention policies with the Pentagon</a>. Bush officials secretly paid supposedly "independent" voices, such as <a href="http://www.commondreams.org/views05/0204-31.htm">Armstrong Williams and Maggie Gallagher</a>, to advocate pro-Bush policies while failing to disclose their contracts. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"> In Iraq, the Bush Pentagon hired a company, Lincoln Park, which <a href="http://www.democracynow.org/2006/8/21/i_was_a_propaganda_intern_in">paid newspapers to plant pro-U.S. articles while pretending it came from Iraqi citizens</a>. In response to all of this, <a href="http://utdocuments.blogspot.com/2008/04/letters-from-rep-rosa-delauro-to.html">Democrats typically accused</a> the Bush administration of engaging in government-sponsored propaganda -- and when it was done domestically, suggested this was illegal propaganda. <br /><br />Consider the recent revelation that the Obama administration has been making very large, <a href="http://emptywheel.firedoglake.com/2010/01/08/gruber-did-not-disclose-conflict-to-the-wapo/">undisclosed payments to MIT Professor Jonathan Gruber</a> to <a href="http://fdlaction.firedoglake.com/2010/01/11/krugman-shoots-the-messenger-blames-wheeler-fdl-for-%E2%80%9Cfueling-a-fake-scandal%E2%80%9D-over-gruber/">provide consultation on the President's health care plan</a>. With this lucrative arrangement in place, Gruber spent the entire year offering public justifications for Obama's health care plan, typically without disclosing these payments, and far worse, was repeatedly held out by the White House -- falsely -- as an "independent" or "objective" authority. <br /><br />Obama allies in the media constantly cited Gruber's analysis to support their defenses of the President's plan, and the White House, in turn, then cited those media reports as proof that their plan would succeed. This <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jane-hamsher/how-the-white-house-used_b_421549.html">created an infinite "feedback loop"</a> in favor of Obama's health care plan which -- unbeknownst to the public -- was all being generated by someone who was receiving hundreds of thousands of dollars in secret from the administration (<a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jane-hamsher/how-the-white-house-used_b_421549.html">read this</a> to see exactly how it worked).<br /><br />In other words, this arrangement was quite similar to the Armstrong Williams and Maggie Gallagher scandals which Democrats, in virtual lockstep, condemned. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"> Paul Krugman, for instance, in 2005 <a href="http://www.mindfully.org/Reform/2005/Doug-Bandow-Op-Eds19dec2005.htm">angrily lambasted</a> right-wing pundits and policy analysts who received secret, undisclosed payments, and said they lack "intellectual integrity"; he specifically cited the Armstrong Williams case. Yet the very same Paul Krugman last week <a href="http://krugman.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/01/11/jonathan-gruber/">attacked Marcy Wheeler</a> for helping to uncover the Gruber payments by accusing her of being "just like the right-wingers with their endless supply of fake scandals." </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"> What is one key difference? </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"> Unlike Williams and Gallagher, Jonathan Gruber is a Good, Well-Intentioned Person with Good Views -- he favors health care -- and so massive, undisclosed payments from the same administration he's defending are dismissed as a "fake scandal." <br /><br />-- *** <i><b><a href="https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2020/12/moderna-covid-19-vaccine-design.html">Could things have moved faster from design to deployment of the vaccine?</a></b> </i></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><i>Given the grim prospects for winter, it is tempting to wonder. Perhaps, in the future, we will. But given existing vaccine infrastructure, probably not. Already, as Baylor’s Peter Hotez pointed out to me, “Operation Warp Speed” meant running clinical trials simultaneously rather than sequentially, manufacturing the vaccine at the same time, and authorizing the vaccine under “emergency use” in December based only on preliminary data that doesn’t track the long-term durability of protection or even measure the vaccine’s effect on transmission (only how much it protects against disease).

For measles, for scarlet fever, for tuberculosis, for typhoid, the miracle drugs didn’t bring rampant disease to a sudden end — they shut the door for good on outbreaks that had largely died out already. </i></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><i><br /></i></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><i>This phenomenon is called the McKeown hypothesis — that medical interventions tend to play only a small role compared to public-health measures, socioeconomic advances, and the natural dynamics of the disease as it spreads through a population. </i></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><i><br /></i></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><i>The new coronavirus vaccines have arrived at what counts as warp speed, but not in time to prevent what CDC director Robert Redfield predicts will be “the most difficult time in the public-health history of this nation,” and do not necessarily represent a reversal of the McKeown hypothesis: The country may still reach herd immunity through natural disease spread, Christakis says, at roughly the same time as the rollout of vaccines is completed. </i></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><i><br /></i></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><i><b>Redfield believes there may be 200,000 more American deaths to come. </b></i></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><i><b><br /><span style="color: #cc0000;">[THAT'S DOWN FROM MILLIONS, ISN'T IT.

A half a million American lives would have been lost in the interim. Around the world, considerably more.<br /><br />In weighing other risks and uncertainties, Americans have been much less cautious, and not just in the case of marching maskless into Wal-Marts. </i></span></div><div><br /></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><i>The treatment dilemmas facing physicians and patients in the early stages of a novel pandemic are, of course, not the same as the dilemma of rushing a new vaccine to a still-healthy population — we defer to the judgment of desperate patients, with physicians inclined to try to help them, but not to the desires of vaccine candidates, no matter how desperate. An unsafe vaccine, like the one for polio that killed ten and paralyzed 200 in 1955, could cause medical disaster and public-health backlash — though, as Balloux <a href="https://twitter.com/ballouxfrancois/status/1334226473327206400?s=11">points out</a>, since none of the new coronavirus vaccines use real viral material, that kind of accident, which affected one in a thousand recipients, would be impossible. (These days, one adverse impact in a million is the rule-of-thumb threshold of acceptability.)</i></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><i><br /></i></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><i> An ineffective vaccine could also give false security to those receiving it, thereby helping spread the disease by providing population-scale license to irresponsible behavior (indoor parties, say, or masklessness). But on other matters of population-level guidance, our messaging about risk has been erratic all year, too. In February and March, we were warned against the use of masks, in part on the grounds that a false sense of security would lead to irresponsible behavior — on balance, perhaps the most consequential public-health mistake in the whole horrid pandemic. In April, with schools already shut, we closed playgrounds. In May, beaches — unable or unwilling to live with even the very-close-to-zero risk of socializing outside (often shaming those who gathered there anyway). But in September, we opened bars and restaurants and gyms, inviting pandemic spread even as we knew the seasonality of the disease would make everything much riskier in the fall. The whole time, we also knew that the Moderna vaccine was essentially safe. We were just waiting to know for sure that it worked, too.<br /><br />None of the scientists I spoke to for this story were at all surprised by either outcome — all said they expected the vaccines were safe and effective all along. Which has made a number of them wonder whether, in the future, at least, we might find a way to do things differently — without even thinking in terms of trade-offs. Rethinking our approach to vaccine development, they told me, could mean moving faster without moving any more recklessly. A layperson might look at the 2020 timelines and question whether, in the case of an onrushing pandemic, a lengthy Phase III trial — which tests for efficacy — is necessary. But the scientists I spoke to about the way this pandemic may reshape future vaccine development were more focused on how to accelerate or skip Phase I, which tests for safety. More precisely, they thought it would be possible to do all the research, development, preclinical testing, and Phase I trials for new viral pandemics before those new viruses had even emerged — to have those vaccines sitting on the shelf and ready to go when they did. They also thought it was possible to do this for nearly the entire universe of potential future viral pandemics — at least 90 percent of them, one of them told me, and likely more.<br /><br />As Hotez explained to me, the major reason this vaccine timeline has shrunk is that much of the research and preclinical animal testing was done in the aftermath of the 2003 SARS pandemic (that is, for instance, how we knew to target the spike protein). This would be the model. Scientists have a very clear sense of which virus families have pandemic potential, and given the resemblance of those viruses, can develop not only vaccines for all of them but also ones that could easily be tweaked to respond to new variants within those families.<br /><br />“We do this every year for influenza,” Rasmussen says. “We don’t know which influenza viruses are going to be circulating, so we make our best guess. And then we formulate that into a vaccine using essentially the same technology platform that all the other influenza vaccines are based on.” The whole process takes a few months, and utilizes a “platform” that we already know is basically safe. With enough funding, you could do the same for viral pandemics, and indeed conduct Phase I trials for the entire set of possible future outbreaks before any of them made themselves known to the public. In the case of a pandemic produced by a new strain in these families, you might want to do some limited additional safety testing, but because the most consequential adverse effects take place in the days right after the vaccine is given, that additional diligence could be almost immediate.<br /><br />According to Florian Krammer, a vaccine scientist at Mount Sinai, you could do all of this at a cost of about $20 million to $30 million per vaccine and, ideally, would do so for between 50 and 100 different viruses — enough, he says, to functionally cover all the phylogenies that could give rise to pandemic strains in the future. (“It’s extremely unlikely that there is something out there that doesn’t belong to one of the known families, that would have been flying under the radar,” he says. “I wouldn’t be worried about that.”) In total, he estimates, the research and clinical trials necessary to do this would cost between $1 billion and $3 billion. So far this year, the U.S. government has spent more than $4 trillion on pandemic relief. Functionally, it’s a drop in the bucket, though Krammer predicts our attention, and the funding, will move on once this pandemic is behind us, leaving us no more prepared for the next one. When he compares the cost of such a project to the Pentagon’s F-35 — you could build vaccines for five potential pandemics for the cost of a single plane, and vaccines for all of them for a fraction of the cost of that fighter-jet program as a whole — he isn’t signaling confidence it will happen, but the opposite.<br /><br />Krammer spent the early months of the pandemic focused on serological testing — it was his lab that gave New York City its first clear picture of just how far the pandemic had spread through the five boroughs in the spring— but recently, he has turned his attention to how to accelerate the timeline of vaccine delivery. In <a href="https://www.cell.com/med/fulltext/S2666-6340(20)30027-1">a just-published paper in Cell</a>, he suggests it isn’t just that Phase I clinical work and the larger, longer Phase II safety trials which could be done preemptively, entirely before the arrival of new pandemics. Some Phase III efficacy testing, he says, could be done then, as well — especially for existing rather than novel strains. “To look for immunogenicity”—whether scientists can provoke the right immune response — “you don’t even have to develop the vaccine,” he says. “You can make antigens in the research center and just test it — that’s pretty inexpensive.” And if a Phase III trial were deemed necessary, it could start just weeks after the disease was identified and conclude in as soon as ten weeks.<br /><br />If we do all that, he says, the entire timeline could be compressed to as few as three months. The production and distribution of a vaccine adds considerable cost, bureaucracy, and even some chaos, as we’re likely about to see. But three months from the design of the Moderna vaccine was April 13. The second and third surges, the return to school and the long-dreaded fall, 225,000 more deaths and 50 million more infections — all of that still lay ahead. </i></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><i>Shave another month off somehow and you’re at March 13, the day the very first person in New York City died.<br /><br />TIME WILL TELL. <br />IF IT'S ALLOWED TO. <br /><br /></i></span><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><b><i>//WW</i></b><br /></span><br /></div></div></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3786783108846468976.post-62926534456961430062020-12-08T01:02:00.001-06:002020-12-08T17:05:17.779-06:00DEATH BY SATELLITE.

This is further compounded by the police, in this document, being removed as a priority group for COVID-19 vaccine allocation, despite having been designated a priority group in all other government vaccine-allocation guidance since the 2001 anthrax attacks. Also odd is that it is only increased access of minorities to the COVID-19 vaccine that is cited as a way to address “structural racism in health systems,” not other policies that would be more likely to address the problem such as Medicare for All.<br /><br />In addition, the Interim Framework admits that “communities of color, particularly Black populations, may be more wary of officials responsible for vaccine-related decisions due to past medical injustices committed by authorities on Black communities.” </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">There is a long list of these “medical injustices” committed against minority communities by the U.S. government, <b><i>including the infamous Tuskegee syphilis experiments</i></b>, which are discussed in detail later.<br /><br />Another odd passage on “justice” and “equity” as it relates to vaccinating ethnic minorities first states:<br /><br />“In the context of vaccine allocation, treating individuals fairly has sometimes been defined as treating everyone the same or equally, for example, by distributing vaccines on a first-come, first-served basis or by giving everyone an equal chance at getting a vaccine <b><i>via a lottery.</i></b> </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><b><i><span style="color: #990000;">Because the impact of the vaccine is different for different people (i.e., some people are at greater risk of death)</span>, the straightforward ways of treating people equally are often rejected as unfair or as an inefficient use of vaccine …</i></b><br /><br />“In the context of vaccine allocation, promoting equity and social justice requires addressing higher rates of COVID-19–related severe illness and mortality among systematically disadvantaged or marginalized groups …<br /><br />“As a matter of justice, these disparities in COVID-19 risk and adverse outcomes across racial and ethnic groups should be addressed in our overall COVID-19 response.”<br /><br /><b><i>This extreme emphasis on the “fairness and justice” of prioritizing minorities for the vaccine is contradicted </i></b>by other claims made in the same document. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">For example, the document also states: <br />“The ultimate safety of an approved vaccine is not completely knowable until it has been administered to millions of people. <b><i>During clinical trials, tens of thousands of individuals will receive the vaccine but that may fail to show safety concerns that occur with less frequency, such as 1 in a million. <span style="color: #990000;">This can be a concern for particularly severe adverse effects.</span>”<br /></i></b><br />It also notes: “It is also possible that certain adverse effects may occur more frequently in certain population subgroups, which may not be apparent until millions are vaccinated.”<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #990000;">Notably, African Americans are understood to be at a higher risk for adverse reactions to vaccines.</span> </b></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><b><br /></b></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">According to a <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5325335/">study</a> by the University of Pennsylvania, African Americans exhibit a disproportionately higher immune response to certain flu shots. And in 2014, the <a href="https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-discovers-african-americans-respond-better-to-rubella-vaccine/">Mayo Clinic</a> found that African Americans have almost double the immune response to the rubella vaccine as Caucasian Americans. Immune reactions that are too strong can result in more adverse events and inflammatory <a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19880568/">responses</a> such as <a href="https://childrenshealthdefense.org/news/the-intertwined-history-of-myelitis-and-vaccines/">transverse myelitis</a>, a debilitating inflammation and paralysis of the spinal cord. <a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21058170/">A 2010 study</a> in the Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health showed that African American boys were at significantly greater risk of suffering severe neurological injury from the hepatitis B shot as compared to Caucasians.<br /><br />This raises the question as to whether African Americans should be prioritized for a <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/williamhaseltine/2020/09/23/covid-19-vaccine-protocols-reveal-that-trials-are-designed-to-succeed/?sh=6ca0b8d95247">poorly tested</a> vaccine when the available science shows that this demographic may be at a higher risk for adverse reactions to vaccines. Previous coronavirus vaccine projects triggered immune responses so strong that the test animals died, and the vaccine projects got scrapped. The Johns Hopkins CHS Interim Framework claiming that vaccinating African Americans and other ethnic minorities first represents “fairness and justice” and would address “structural racism” does not square with its admission that the safety of the COVID-19 vaccine is “not completely knowable” until millions have received it and that “certain adverse effects may occur more frequently in certain population subgroups.”<br /><br /><br /><b>Who is really to blame for ‘vaccine hesitancy’?<br /></b><br />For a successful rollout of a COVID-19 vaccine, the federal government will need to reckon with “<a href="https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/covid-vaccine-hesitancy-widespread-medical-professionals/">vaccine hesitancy,</a>” which the WHO <a href="https://www.who.int/news-room/spotlight/ten-threats-to-global-health-in-2019">named</a> as one of the top ten threats to global health in 2019 and which is a major concern discussed at length in the August Interim Framework on COVID-19 vaccination strategies.<br /><br />According to <a href="https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2020/06/04/black-americans-face-higher-covid-19-risks-are-more-hesitant-to-trust-medical-scientists-get-vaccinated/">recent</a> <a href="https://www.axios.com/black-americans-coronavirus-vaccine-skepticism-ce338845-0263-4cc9-a88e-1125900533fd.html">polls</a>, such hesitancy is, understandably, most prevalent among African Americans, the group that has most commonly been used as human guinea pigs by the U.S. government and associated scientific and medical institutions. For instance, there are the infamous Tuskegee University experiments, devised by the U.S. Public Health Service (now a division of HHS) and the CDC. The unwitting participants in the study, all of whom were African American, were told that they were receiving free health-care services from the federal government, while actually they were <a href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/medical/bad-blood-the-hidden-horror-of-the-tuskegee-syphilis-study/ar-BB17N8Df">being intentionally untreated</a> for syphilis so government scientists could study the devastating progression of the disease. Deception was critical to the experiment, as the participants did not know they were part of an experiment at all and were also kept unaware of their true diagnosis. While Tuskegee may be the most well-known example of racist medical experimentation in the U.S., it’s far from the only one.<br /><br />For example, during the Manhattan Project, the undertaking that produced the atom bomb, the U.S. government contracted dozens of physicians to inject unknowing hospital patients with <a href="https://ehss.energy.gov/ohre/roadmap/achre/report.html">up to 4.7 micrograms</a> of radioactive plutonium, forty-one times normal lifetime exposure. The goal of this experiment was to pinpoint the dosage at which radioactive elements such as plutonium would cause illnesses like leukemia, and to measure the amount of radioactivity that lingers in the blood, tissues, bones, and urine. Between 1944 and 1994 the Atomic Energy Commission <a href="https://ehss.energy.gov/ohre/roadmap/achre/summary.html">supported thousands</a> of experimental projects sanctioning such radiation on human subjects, most of whom were African Americans.<br /><br />From 1954 to 1962, the Sloan-Kettering Institute, which receives hundreds of millions of dollars of <a href="https://report.nih.gov/award/index.cfm?ot=&fy=2020&state=&ic=&fm=&orgid=5079201&distr=&rfa=&om=y&pid=&view=state">NIH funds</a> annually, injected over four hundred African American inmates at <a href="https://www.bmj.com/content/315/7120/1437">Ohio State Prison</a> with live cancer cells to observe how the body might destroy them. The primary <a href="https://apnews.com/article/09957bb00e269323f18842dc5d5c3e63">sponsor</a> for this research was the National Institutes of Health, which also partially sponsored the Tuskegee experiments.<br /><br />From 1987 through 1991, U.S. researchers <a href="https://www.nvic.org/nvic-archives/newsletter/vaccinereactionjune1996.aspx">administered</a> as much as five hundred times the approved dosage of the Edmonton-Zagreb (EZ) measles vaccine to African American and Latino babies in low-income Los Angeles neighborhoods as part of a vaccine experiment. Consent forms did not inform parents of the increased dosage or of the fact that the vaccine was experimental. Parents were also not informed that the vaccine had already been given to 2,000 children in Haiti, Senegal, and Guinea-Bissau with disastrous results. For example, in Senegal, children who received the jab died at a rate <a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1681265/">80% higher</a> than children who did not receive it. The CDC would later characterize the U.S. trials <a href="https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg15020361-000-measles-trial-broke-consent-rules/">as</a> “clearly a mistake.”<br /><br />Between 1992 and 1997, Columbia University’s Lowenstein Center for the Study and Prevention of Childhood Disruptive Behavior Disorders conducted studies that sought to establish a link between genetics and violence, focusing on minority children in New York City. These experiments targeted <a href="https://www.villagevoice.com/1998/05/05/half-truths-and-consequences/">126</a> boys between the ages of six and ten, 100% of whom were either African American, Latino, or biracial. In exchange for $100 and a $25 Toys “R” Us <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/national/science/ethical/ethical.htm">gift card</a>, the children, selected because their <a href="https://casetext.com/case/johnson-v-columbia-university">older brothers</a> had come into contact with the juvenile probation system, were taken from their homes, denied food and water, and given a drug called fenfluramine. Prior to these experiments, fenfluramine had never been administered to people under the age of twelve, and it was already known that the drug was associated with <a href="https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/nejm199708283370901">heart-valve damage</a>, <a href="https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/nda/2012/022529Orig1s000SumR.pdf">brain damage</a>, and <a href="https://erj.ersjournals.com/content/31/2/343">death</a>.<br /><br />Such historical facts raise obvious questions about the reasons for “vaccine hesitancy” and how they are currently being approached by the U.S. government and related institutions. While it would make the most sense to combat this problem by holding to account the people responsible for past abuses, such as those described above, the opposite has been the case. Instead, the CHS and other institutions, particularly regarding the coming COVID-19 vaccination campaign, have proposed several other means of combatting “vaccine hesitancy,” ranging from deception to information warfare to economic coercion.<br /><br />Another CHS paper, published in July, “<a href="https://www.centerforhealthsecurity.org/our-work/pubs_archive/pubs-pdfs/2020/200709-The-Publics-Role-in-COVID-19-Vaccination.pdf">The Public’s Role in COVID-19 Vaccination</a>,” which is cited heavily in the August framework, acknowledged the U.S. “legacy of experimentation on Black men and women.”<br /><br />However, the CHS document also notes that more than one COVID-19 vaccine candidate “may be available at the same time” and they “may have different safety and efficacy profiles across different population groups and may have different logistical requirements.” It adds that “it is also possible that certain adverse effects may occur more frequently in certain population subgroups, which may not be apparent until millions are vaccinated.”<br /><br />It is notable that Palantir, the CIA-linked government technology contractor, has been put in charge of creating the software that will “decide” which “population subgroups” are given what vaccine. Palantir is perhaps best known for its controversial role in <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/morgansimon/2020/01/15/investing-in-immigrant-surveillance-palantir-and-the-notechforice-campaign/">targeting undocumented immigrants</a> through its contracts with ICE and its role in <a href="https://www.theverge.com/2018/2/27/17054740/palantir-predictive-policing-tool-new-orleans-nopd">predictive-policing efforts</a> that <a href="https://theintercept.com/2018/05/11/predictive-policing-surveillance-los-angeles/">disproportionately targeted African Americans</a>. It is certainly unsettling that those same ethnic groups that Palantir is most controversial for targeting on behalf of the national-security state and law enforcement are the same “critical populations” that the company will initially identify for the U.S. military–led COVID-19 vaccination program, Operation Warp Speed.<br /><br />In addition,<b><i> in a move that can only aggravate minority community “vaccine hesitancy,</i></b>” the August CHS Interim Framework recommends that the CDC transform the current “vaccines adverse-event reporting system” from a voluntary system that relies on individuals sending in reports to the government to “an active surveillance system” that “monitors all vaccine recipients,” possibly via unspecified “electronic mechanisms.”<br /><br />The Last American Vagabond <a href="https://www.thelastamericanvagabond.com/google-oracle-monitor-americans-who-get-warp-speeds-covid-19-vaccine-for-two-years/">reported</a> last month that Operation Warp Speed, seemingly having taken a cue from the Interim Framework, plans to utilize “incredibly precise … tracking systems” that will “ensure that patients each get two doses of the same vaccine and to monitor them for adverse health effects.” Those systems will be managed, in part, by the <a href="https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/google-oracle-covid-vaccine/">intelligence-linked tech giants</a> Google and Oracle.<br /><br />The main stated purpose of these “tracking systems,” referred to in other Warp Speed documents as “pharmacovigilance systems,” is to monitor the longer-term effects of new, unlicensed vaccine-production methods that are being used in the production of every Warp Speed COVID-19 vaccine candidate. Per Warp Speed’s own documents, these methods “have limited previous data on safety in humans … the long-term safety of these vaccines will be carefully assessed using pharmacovigilance surveillance and Phase 4 (post-licensure) clinical trials,” following the administration of the COVID-19 vaccines to the prioritized “critical populations.”<br /><br />Also concerning is that law enforcement, military, and Department of Homeland Security officials will no longer be priority vaccine-allocation targets, for the first time since the 2001 anthrax attacks, while no convincing reason for their exclusion is offered.<br /><br />Yet, instead of honestly addressing these unprecedented recommendations, the effort to get around the “vaccine hesitancy” issue as it relates to minorities plans to rely on tactics that avoid addressing any of these issues directly. In one example, although the August Interim Framework recommends “directly prioritizing” ethnic minorities, it recognizes that doing so “could further threaten the fragile trust that some have in the medical and public health system, particularly if there is the perception that there has been a lack of testing to assess vaccine safety and that they are the ‘guinea pigs.’” <br /><br />It is also worth noting that, in addition to the focus on ethnic minorities, the Interim Framework also recommends that “differently abled and mentally challenged populations, who can experience difficulties in accessing healthcare and could be in higher-risk living settings, such as assisted living facilities,” be included as a “target population” along with ethnic minorities.<br /><br />This strategy as laid out by the CHS appears to have been embraced by the CDC’s ACIP, which is the official government body that will designate the “target populations” of the COVID-19 vaccination strategy.<br /><br /><b><u>RED FLAGS EVERYWHERE </u></b><br /><br />Also noteworthy in relation to the prioritization of ethnic minorities is that in <a href="https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2020/03/17/2020-05484/declaration-under-the-public-readiness-and-emergency-preparedness-act-for-medical-countermeasures">March</a> the government interpreted federal regulations to grant liability immunity to any entity producing, distributing, manufacturing, or administering COVID-19 countermeasures, including vaccines. According to HHS, this move may also “<a href="https://www.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/lep-bulletin-5-15-2020-english.pdf">provide immunity from certain liability under civil rights laws</a>,” meaning that those involved with the COVID-19 vaccination campaign may not be liable if found to violate the rights of groups protected under civil rights law, that is, ethnic minorities.<br /><br />Another tactic promoted by the CHS, as well as the CDC and Warp Speed, to combat “vaccine hesitancy” is aggressive communication strategies that include “saturating” the media landscape with provaccine content while greatly reducing content deemed to promote “vaccine hesitancy.” </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>The national-security state,</b> which is managing Operation Warp Speed, has become increasingly involved in this media effort, particularly by censoring content that is considered to be anti-vaccine (including, in their view, news outlets critical of the pharmaceutical industry and vaccine manufacturers) by using <a href="https://unlimitedhangout.com/2020/11/reports/us-uk-intel-agencies-declare-cyber-war-on-independent-media/">counterterror tools</a> that have previously been used to disrupt online terrorist propaganda.<br /><br />After the October 2019 coronavirus pandemic simulation, Event 201, the CHS <a href="https://www.centerforhealthsecurity.org/event201/recommendations.html">issued a statement</a> that media companies have a responsibility to ensure that “authoritative messages are prioritized.” The CHS had co-sponsored Event 201 alongside the World Economic Forum and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.<br /><br />There is much more to this information war than just the rapidly accelerating online censorship effort. For instance, the official Operation Warp Speed document “<a href="https://www.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/strategy-for-distributing-covid-19-vaccine.pdf">From the Factory to the Frontlines</a>” notes that “strategic communications and public messaging are critical to ensure maximum acceptance of vaccines, requiring a saturation of messaging across the national media.” </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">It also states that “working with established partners — especially those that are trusted sources for target audiences — is critical to advancing public understanding of, access to, and acceptance of eventual vaccines” and that “identifying the right messages to promote vaccine confidence, countering misinformation, and targeting outreach to vulnerable and at-risk populations will be necessary to achieve high coverage.”</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">A July CHS paper, “<a href="https://www.centerforhealthsecurity.org/our-work/pubs_archive/pubs-pdfs/2020/200709-The-Publics-Role-in-COVID-19-Vaccination.pdf">The Public’s Role in COVID-19 Vaccination</a>,” a document Luciana Borio also helped write, argued, “Vaccination sites should not be heavily policed or send any signals that the site may be unsafe for Black or other minority communities.” This CHS paper further states that “trusted community spokespersons” should be utilized for a “communication campaign,” amplifying “vaccine-affirming, personally relevant messages.” Like <a href="https://www.who.int/vaccine_safety/committee/Module_Communication.pdf?ua=1">similar WHO materials</a>, it advocates tailoring the campaign to specific audiences and identifying a network of spokespeople to deliver a “salient and specific message repeatedly, delivered by multiple trusted messengers and via diverse media channels.”<br /><br />The CDC also recommends vaccine administration at places such as university parking lots, soup kitchens, public libraries, and faith-based organizations. <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/imz-managers/downloads/COVID-19-Vaccination-Program-Interim_Playbook.pdf">An October CDC report</a> reads: “For people living in institutions, consider vaccination at intake; for people attending colleges/universities, vaccinate at enrollment.” It also proposes that U.S. states and territories utilize nontraditional vaccination sites such as homeless shelters and food pantries.<br /><br />The prospect of red-carpet celebrities, influencers, and “trusted messengers” endorsing public-health policy is not unthinkable. According to <a href="https://www.nbcnewyork.com/entertainment/entertainment-news/new-york-new-jersey-recruit-celebrities-to-urge-residents-to-stay-home-donate-to-relief-fund/2342995/">NBC New York</a>, New York and New Jersey have already recruited celebrities to urge residents to follow CDC guidelines. <a href="https://www.dw.com/en/celebrities-pass-the-mic-to-covid-19-experts/a-53535010">Actors</a> including Julia Roberts, Penelope Cruz, Sarah Jessica Parker, Robin Wright, and Hugh Jackman earlier this year joined a coordinated campaign to “pass the mic to COVID-19 experts.”<br /><br />In addition, this summer the WHO <a href="https://efile.fara.gov/docs/3301-Exhibit-AB-20200714-38.pdf">paid PR firm Hill & Knowlton Strategies</a> $135,000 to identify micro-influencers, macro-influencers, and what it calls “hidden heroes” who “shape and guide conversations” to promote WHO messaging on social media and promote the organization’s image as a COVID-19 authority. Hill & Knowlton are controversial for having previously <a href="https://www.antiwar.com/orig/cohen1.html">manufactured the false “incubator baby” testimony</a> delivered in front of Congress that propelled the U.S. into the first Gulf War in the early 1990s.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br />“<a href="https://www.centerforhealthsecurity.org/our-work/pubs_archive/pubs-pdfs/2020/200709-The-Publics-Role-in-COVID-19-Vaccination.pdf">The Public’s Role in COVID-19 Vaccination</a>” also urges using groups such as faith-based organizations, schools, homeowners’ associations, and unions trusted by “hard-to-reach audiences” to convey positive vaccine messages and to “modulate public perceptions of vaccination.” </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">Accordingly, the July CHS paper notes “the importance of using outside groups who have relationships with the community, instead of direct government involvement.” It should be noted that during the Tuskegee experiments, the U.S. Public Health Service <a href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/medical/bad-blood-the-hidden-horror-of-the-tuskegee-syphilis-study/ar-BB17N8Df">hired Eunice Rivers</a>, a black nurse with a close relationship to the local minority community, to maintain contact with those who were part of the experiment to ensure they continued to participate.<br /><br /><b>When all else fails, coerce<br /></b><br />In addition to this information warfare approach to combating “vaccine hesitancy,” the government also intends to stave off possible hesitancy through economic coercion, that is, by using economic incentives, even linking vaccination to entrance into the workforce, housing assistance, food, travel, and education.<br /><br />Sunstein’s Bloomberg piece, for example, states that when a vaccine is available, “an economic incentive, such as a small gift certificate, can help” make it easy for “people who are at particular risk. Such gift cards will inevitably be more effective at swaying decisions of the poor.”<br /><br />Former 2020 Presidential Candidate and U.S. Representative for Maryland’s 6th congressional district John Delaney recently penned an article in the Washington Post, “<a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/11/23/pay-americans-coronavirus-vaccine-john-delaney/">Pay Americans to Take a Coronavirus Vaccine</a>,” in which he argues a way to overcome the “historical level of distrust” in the vaccine development process is to take advantage of the current economic crisis and “pay people to take a COVID vaccine.” Delaney writes, “Such an incentive might be the most effective way to persuade people to overcome suspicion or even fear …”<br /><br />CHS’s “The Public’s Role in COVID-19 Vaccination,” paper also details how bundling services like “food security, rent assistance, [and] free clinic services” with vaccination can increase vaccine intake.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">This strategy for increasing vaccine intake parallels what the CHS proposes in order to make digital contact tracing technology (DCTT) widespread in the population without mandating it outright. “Instead of making use fully voluntary and initiated by users, there are ways that DCTT could be put into use without users’ voluntary choice,” a recent CHS paper “<a href="https://www-cdn.law.stanford.edu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/project_muse_75831-full.pdf">Digital Contact Tracing for Pandemic Response</a>” reads. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">It continues: “For example, use of an app could be mandated as a precondition for returning to work or school, or even further, to control entry into a facility or transportation (such as airplanes) through scanning of a QR code.”<br /><br /></span><p style="border: 0px;

And while there is no suggestion in the documents the two parallel crises are linked, information regarding the magnitude of Hubei's influenza spike has still yet to be made public."<br /><b><i>"We're just not that great at diagnosing them.

They said they worked inside the Chinese healthcare system, and were a patriot motivated to expose a truth that had been censored, and honor colleagues who had also spoken out. It is unclear how the documents were obtained or why specific papers were selected.<br />The documents have been verified by six independent experts who examined the veracity of their content on behalf of CNN.

To cope with the high volume, officials decided to begin incorporating other clinical diagnosis methods, such as CT scans. This led to the creation of category referred to internally as "clinically diagnosed cases." </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><b><i>It was not until mid-February that the clinically diagnosed cases were added to the confirmed case numbers.</i></b><br /><br /><b><i>The report characterizes the Hubei CDC as underfunded, lacking the right testing equipment, and with unmotivated staff who were often felt ignored in China's vast bureaucracy.</i></b></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><b><i><br />The documents include an internal audit, which forensic analysis shows was <span style="color: #990000;">written in October 2019, before the pandemic began.<br /><br /></span></i></b>More than four months after the virus was first identified, major issues continued to hamper disease control efforts in key areas, the documents show.<br /><br />The Chinese government has previously pointed to the Huanan seafood market in Wuhan as the likely initial epicenter of the outbreak in mid-December, where meat of exotic wild animals was sold. Yet that claim has been at least partially challenged by a Lancet study of the first December patients, which determined one third of the 41 infected that month had no direct connection to that market.<br /><br />Mertha, the China expert from JHU, said the spike in Yichang, while not connected to Covid-19 in the documents, could nonetheless open up new theories about where the virus began.<br />"The order of magnitude of change means there has to be something going on," he said.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br />Mertha also said the mismatch between the higher internal and lower public figures on the February death toll "appeared to be a deception, for unsurprising reasons."</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /><b>"China had an image to protect internationally, and lower-ranking officials had a clear incentive to under-report -- or to show their superiors that they were under-reporting -- to outside eyes," </b>he said.<br />Nowhere in the files is it indicated that officials believed the virus would become a global pandemic.<br /><br /><b>PSSST, CNN, WE KNEW MOST OF THIS BACK IN MAY THIS YEAR, BUT YOU DIDN'T "REPORT" ON IT? </b></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /><a href="https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/11532002/china-lied-coronavirus-dossier-spy/">A 15-page document</a>, obtained by Australia's <a href="https://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/coronavirus/bombshell-dossier-lays-out-case-against-chinese-bat-virus-program/news-story/55add857058731c9c71c0e96ad17da60">The Saturday Telegraph</a>, has laid the foundation for a case being created against China for its handling of the deadly disease.<br /><br />The dossier, from the Five Eyes intelligence agencies of the US, Canada, the UK, Australia and New Zealand, stated that China's secrecy surrounding the virus led to an "assault on international transparency".</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br />It said: "Despite evidence of human-human transmission from early December, PRC authorities deny it until January 20.<br /><br />"The World Health Organisation does the same.

Now, you can call them whatever you want, but the truth of the matter is that in just a short period of time, Irish slaves were the majority of slaves in the English colonies. <br />By the 1630’s, Ireland was the primary source of slaves in the English slave trade.

Welcome to my city — or should I say, ‘our city.’ I don't own anything. I don't own a car. I don't own a house. I don't own any appliances or any clothes.<br /><br />It might seem odd to you, but it makes perfect sense for us in this city. Everything you considered a product, has now become a service. We have access to transportation, accommodation, food and all the things we need in our daily lives. One by one all these things became free, so it ended up not making sense for us to own much …<br /><br />In our city we don't pay any rent, because someone else is using our free space whenever we do not need it. My living room is used for business meetings when I am not there. <br /><br />Once in a while, I will choose to cook for myself. It is easy — the necessary kitchen equipment is delivered at my door within minutes …<br /><br />Shopping? I can't really remember what that is. For most of us, it has been turned into choosing things to use. Sometimes I find this fun, and sometimes I just want the algorithm to do it for me. It knows my taste better than I do by now.<br /><br />When AI and robots took over so much of our work, we suddenly had time to eat well, sleep well and spend time with other people ... The work that we do can be done at any time. I don't really know if I would call it work anymore. It is more like thinking-time, creation-time and development-time …</i></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: arial;"><i>Now I can hardly believe that we accepted congestion and traffic jams, not to mention the air pollution from combustion engines. What were we thinking?<br /><br />Environmental problems seem far away, since we only use clean energy and clean production methods. The air is clean, the water is clean and nobody would dare to touch the protected areas of nature because they constitute such value to our well-being. In the cities we have plenty of green space and plants and trees all over. I still do not understand why in the past we filled all free spots in the city with concrete.<br /><br />My biggest concern is all the people who do not live in our city. Those we lost on the way. Those who decided that it became too much, <b>all this technology. </b>Those who felt obsolete and useless when robots and AI took over big parts of our jobs. Those who got upset with the political system and turned against it. They live different kind of lives outside of the city. Some have formed little self-supplying communities. Others just stayed in the empty and abandoned houses in small 19th century villages. </i></span><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><i><br /></i></span><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><i>Once in a while I get annoyed about the fact that I have no real privacy.

Much better than the path we were on, where it became so clear that we could not continue with the same model of growth.

Instead, be prepared for variations of the Forbes article above.

/></b><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">“[In 2019], a U.S. government body dedicated to examining how artificial intelligence can ‘address the national security and defense needs of the United States’ discussed in detail the ‘structural’ changes that the American economy and society must undergo in order to ensure a technological advantage over China, according to a recent document15 acquired through a FOIA request.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">This document suggests that the U.S. follow China’s lead and even surpass them in many aspects related to AI-driven technologies, particularly their use of mass surveillance.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">This perspective clearly clashes with the public rhetoric of prominent U.S. government officials and politicians on China, who have labeled the Chinese government’s technology investments and export of its surveillance systems and other technologies as a major ‘<a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/policy/defense-national-security/top-pentagon-official-china-a-threat-to-our-way-of-life-in-the-united-states">threat’ to Americans’ ‘way of

refers to</a> was produced by the National Security Commission on Artificial Intelligence (NSCAI), a government organization created by the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) of 2018.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Its purpose is “to consider the methods and means necessary to advance the development of artificial intelligence, machine learning and associated technologies to comprehensively address the national security and defense needs of the United States,” <b><i>and ensure the U.S. maintains a technological advantage.</i></b></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">To that end, the NSCAI is pushing for an overhaul of the American way of life and economy in order to usher in a more comprehensive AI-driven surveillance apparatus. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><b><i>In other words, a Great Reset.</i></b></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /><b>Resist the Great Reset</b></span><b><br /></b><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Ironically, while the real plan is to usher in a tech-driven globalist-run dystopia free of democratic controls, technocrats speak of this plan as a way to bring us back into harmony with Nature.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br />The medical tyranny and censorship of anti-group-think that has emerged during this pandemic are an unavoidable element of the Great Reset, and if you think it’s bad now, just wait until the whole system is brought fully online.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">The mere idea of dissent will become a thought of the past, because your life — your health, educational and work opportunities, your finances and your very identity — will be so meshed with the automated technological infrastructure that <i><b>any attempt to break free will result in you being locked out or erased from the system, leaving you with no ability to learn, work, travel or purchase anything.</b></i></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">It sounds far-fetched, I know, but when you follow the technocratic plan to its inevitable end, that’s basically what you end up with. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">The warning signs are all around us, if we’re willing to see them for what they actually are. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /><b>The only question now is whether enough people are willing to resist it to make a difference.</b></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Along those lines, let's carefully reflect on one of the United States’ founding fathers, Benjamin Franklin, in his warning and caution with respect to losing our liberty.<br /></span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;"><b><i>"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." ~ Benjamin Franklin</i></b></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">If you are open for some practical strategies on how you can respond in light of all the tyrannical interventions that have been imposed on us you might watch <a href="https://venusproject.org/home/interview-1598.html">James Corbett’s interview with Howard Lichtman</a>. <br /><b>NOT saying I agree with either gentleman, just mentioning it. </b></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">There's a video from Barbara Loe Fisher which, to me, is one of the best videos that I've seen on freedom of choice for vaccines. The goal must always be freedom and independence for ALL, to choose wheter to vaccinate OR NOT. <br /><br /><b><span style="color: #990000;">"MY BODY, MY CHOICE", RIGHT? </span></b></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br />TRY, PLEASE, to comprehend that if a vaccine for SAS-CoV2 can be made MANDATORY, so can ANYTHING the technocrats come up with AFTER that's done. <br /></span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">There is a cultural war and collusion between many industries and federal regulatory agencies that results in a suppression of the truth about vital important health issues. If this suppression continues we will gradually and progressively erode our private individual rights that our ancestors fought so hard to achieve. <br /></span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">For any who think ALL should take every vaccine that comes along, that vaccines MUST BE MANDATORY, ask yourselves, "What if some group of people could force ME to NOT take the vaccines I believe in? What if I was denied MY right to free choice, denied MY</span><span style="font-family: arial;"> personal beliefs?"</span></div><div><b><span style="font-family: arial;">NOBODY WANTS TO BE FORCED TO DO ANYTHING. </span><br /></b><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">National vaccine policy recommendations are made at the federal level but vaccine laws are made at the state level. It is at the state level where your action to protect your rights can have the greatest impact.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">It is critical for EVERYONE to get involved now in standing up for the legal right to make voluntary vaccine choices in America because those choices are being threatened by lobbyists representing drug companies, medical trade associations and public health officials, who are trying to persuade legislators to strip all vaccine exemptions from public health laws. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">WHAT IF, INSTEAD, THEY DECIDED TO WITHHOLD ALL VACCINES, TO DENY EVERYONE THE CHOICE TO BE VACCINATED OR TO VACCINATE YOUR CHILDREN? </span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">In 1974, Trilateral Commission member and academic Richard Gardner wrote an article<a href="https://archive.org/details/TheHardRoadToWorldOrder"> “The Hard Road to World Order” </a>for Foreign Affairs magazine, predicting the future of the Commission’s self-proclaimed 'New International Economic Order'. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">Gardner spoke of an “end-run around national sovereignty”, a “booming, buzzing confusion” and building it from the “bottom up” rather than attempting an “old-fashioned frontal assault.”</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /><a href="https://www.technocracy.news/product/technocracy-the-hard-road-to-world-order/">Patrick Wood traces the steps and developments that led to the United Nations’ establishment of Sustainable Development</a> as an outgrowth of historic Technocracy from the 1930s. UN programs such as 2030 Agenda, New Urban Agenda and the Paris Climate Agreement are all working together to displace Capitalism and Free Enterprise as the world’s principal economic system.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">As a resource-based economic system, Sustainable Development intends to take control of all resources, all production and all consumption on planet earth, leaving all of its inhabitants to be micro-managed by a Scientific Dictatorship. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">Topics covered include the devolution of federal governments combined with the rise of global Smart Cities.

But even in developed countries, containment was a challenge.<br /><br />The United States' initial policy of "strongly discouraging" citizens from flying proved deadly in its leniency, accelerating the spread of the virus not just within the U.S. but across borders.<br /><br />However, a few countries did fare better - China in particular.<br /><br />The Chinese government's quick imposition and<b><i> enforcement of mandatory quarantine for all citizens, as well as its instant and near-hermetic sealing off of all borders, saved millions of lives</i></b>, stopping the spread of the virus far earlier than in other countries and enabling a swifter post- pandemic recovery.<br /><br />China's government was not the only one that took extreme measures to protect its citizens from risk and exposure. During the pandemic, <b><i>national leaders around the world flexed their authority and imposed airtight rules and restrictions, from the mandatory wearing of face masks to body-temperature checks at the entries to communal spaces like train stations and supermarkets.</i></b><br /><br />Even after the pandemic faded, this more authoritarian control and oversight of citizens and their activities stuck and even intensified. In order to protect themselves from the spread of increasingly global problems - from pandemics and transnational terrorism to environmental crises and rising poverty - leaders around the world took a firmer grip on power.<br /><br />At first, the notion of a more controlled world gained wide acceptance and approval.<br /><br />Citizens willingly gave up some of their sovereignty - and their privacy - to more paternalistic states in exchange for greater safety and stability. Citizens were more tolerant, and even eager, for top-down direction and oversight, and national leaders had more latitude to impose order in the ways they saw fit.<br /><br />In developed countries, this heightened oversight took many forms:<br /><b><i>biometric IDs for all citizens,</i></b> for example, and tighter regulation of key industries whose stability was deemed vital to national interests.<br /><br /><b><i>In many developed countries, enforced cooperation with a suite of new regulations and agreements slowly but steadily restored both order and, importantly, economic growth.<br /></i></b></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><br />By 2025, people seemed to be growing weary of so much top-down control and letting leaders and authorities make choices for them. <b><i>Wherever national interests clashed with individual interests, there was conflict.<br /></i></b><br />Sporadic push-back became increasingly organized and coordinated, as disaffected youth and people who had seen their status and opportunities slip away - largely in developing countries - <b><i>incited civil unrest. </i></b>In 2026, protestors in Nigeria brought down the government, fed up with the entrenched cronyism and corruption.<br /><br />Even those who liked the greater stability and predictability of this world began to grow uncomfortable and constrained by so many tight rules and by the strictness of national boundaries.<br /><br />The feeling lingered that sooner or later, something would inevitably upset the neat order that the world's governments had worked so hard to establish.<br /></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/imagenes_sociopol/sociop101.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="275" data-original-width="559" height="315" src="https://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/imagenes_sociopol/sociop101.gif" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><b><i>"IT IS POSSIBLE TO DISCIPLINE AND CONTROL SOME SOCIETIES FOR SOME TIME, </i></b><i style="font-weight: bold;">BUT NOT THE WHOLE WORLD ALL THE TIME."</i></div><i><div style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"><i>--GK Bhat, TARU</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i style="font-weight: bold;">Leading Edge, India</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div></i><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>Technology trends and applications we might see in Lockstep:<br /></b><br />Scanners using advanced functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) technology become the norm at airports and other public areas to detect abnormal behavior that may indicate "antisocial intent."<br /><br />In the aftermath of pandemic scares, smarter packaging for food and beverages is applied first by big companies and producers in a business-to-business environment, and then adopted for individual products and consumers.<br /><br />New diagnostics are developed to detect communicable diseases.

Therefore, the percentage of positive tests was relatively high. But there are not so many sick people and with the general roll out of tests, the vast majority of those tested will be healthy.

Huge amounts of it,” Dr. David Rasnick, bio-chemist, protease developer, and former founder of an EM lab called Viral Forensics told me.<br /><br /><b><i> “You don’t start with testing; you start with listening to the lungs. I’m skeptical that a PRC test is ever true. It’s a great scientific research tool. It’s a horrible tool for clinical medicine. 30% of your infected cells have been killed before you show symptoms. By the time you show symptoms…the dead cells are generating the symptoms.”<br /><br />I asked Dr. Rasnick what advice he has for people who want to be tested for COVID-19. <br />“Don’t do it, I say, when people ask me,” he replies. “No healthy person should be tested. It means nothing but it can destroy your life, make you absolutely miserable.”</i></b></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span><span style="color: #990000; font-family: arial;"><b><i>“Every time somebody takes a swab, a tissue sample of their DNA, it goes into a government database. It’s to track us,” says David Rasnick. “They’re not just looking for the virus. Please put that in your article.”<br /></i></b></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><br />“PCR is really a manufacturing technique,” Crowe explained. “You start with one molecule. You start with a small amount of DNA and on each cycle the amount doubles, which doesn’t sound like that much, but if you, if you double 30 times, you get approximately a billion times more material than you started with. So as a manufacturing technique, it’s great. What they do is they attach a fluorescent molecule to the RNA as they produce it. You shine a light at one wavelength, and you get a response, you get light sent back at a different wavelength. <br /><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">So, they measure the amount of light that comes back and that’s their surrogate for how much DNA there is. I’m using the word DNA. There’s a step in RT- PCR test which is where you convert the RNA to DNA. <b><i>So, the PCR test is actually not using the viral RNA. It’s using DNA, but it’s like the complimentary RNA.</i></b> So logically it’s the same thing, but it can be confusing. Like why am I suddenly talking about DNA? Basically, there’s a certain number of cycles.”<br /><br />This is where it gets wild. <br /><br />“In one paper,” Crowe says, “I found 37 cycles. If you didn’t get enough fluorescence by 37 cycles, you are considered negative. In another, paper, the cutoff was 36. <i><b>Thirty-seven to 40 were considered “indeterminate.</b></i>” And if you got in that range, then you did more testing. <b><i>I’ve only seen two papers that described what the limit was. </i></b>So, it’s quite possible that different hospitals, different States, Canada versus the US, Italy versus France are all <b><i>using different cutoff sensitivity standards of the Covid test. <span style="color: #990000;">So, if you cut off at 20, everybody would be negative. If you cut off a 50, you might have everybody positive.”</span></i></b><br /><br />I asked him to pause so I could exclaim my astonishment. And yet, it was déjà vu all over again. <br />Just like in the HIV battle—people were never told that the “HIV test” had different standards in different countries, and within countries, from lab to lab. The highest bar (the greatest number of HIV proteins) was in Australia: 5. The Lowest was Africa: 2. In the US it is generally 3-4.<br /><br />David, in his quiet Canadian way, dropped a bombshell in his next statement:<br /><br />“I think if a country said, “You know, we need to end this epidemic,” They could quietly send around a memo saying: “We shouldn’t be having the cutoff at 37. If we put it at 32, the number of positive tests drops dramatically. If it’s still not enough, well, you know, 30 or 28 or something like that. <b>So, you can control the sensitivity.”<br /></b><br />Yes, you read that right. Labs can manipulate how many “cases’ of Covid-19 their country has. <b>Is this how the Chinese made their case load vanish all of a sudden?</b><br /><br />“Another reason we know this is bogus,” Crowe continued, “is from a remarkable series of graphs published by some people from Singapore in JAMA. These graphs were published in the supplementary information, which is an indication that nobody’s supposed to read them. And I think the authors probably just threw them in because they were interesting graphs, but they didn’t realize what was in them. So, they were 18 graphs of 18 different people. And at this hospital in Singapore, they did daily coronavirus tests and they grasped the number of PCR cycles necessary to detect fluorescence. Or if they couldn’t detect florescence by…<b>37 cycles</b>, they put a dot on the bottom of the graph, signifying a negative.”<br /><br />“So, in this group of 18 people, the majority of people went from positive, which is normally read as “infected,” to negative, which is normally read as “uninfected” back to positive—infected again. <br /><br />Because if it was, like if you’re infected, and then you’re uninfected, and you’re in a hospital with the best anti-infective precautions in the world, how did you get re-infected? And if you cured the infection, why didn’t you have antibodies to stop you getting re-infected? So, there’s no explanation within the mainstream that can explain these results. That’s why I think they’re so important.”<br /><br />I couldn’t believe my ears. And yet I could. <br /><br /><b><i>Have you ever tried to read the package insert for a “Corona” PCR test?</i></b> You begin to feel after a while that the techno-babble is some kind of spell, or bad dream. An alien language from another dimension, that could not possibly—whatever else it may do—help a single human being have a better life. It’s not “English.” I don’t know what it is.<br /><br /><br /><b>One of the ways to distinguish truth from deception in contemporary “science” is to track what gets removed. </b></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">For example, David tells me, there was apparently an English abstract online at PubMed out of China that rendered the entire COVID testing industrial complex baseless and absurd.<br /><br />“There was a famous Chinese paper that estimated that <b><i>if you’re testing asymptomatic people, up to 80% of positives could be false positive. </i></b>That was kind of shocking, so shocking that PubMed had to withdraw the abstract even though the Chinese paper appears to still be published and available. I actually have a translation with a friend. I translated it into English and it’s a really, standard calculation of what they call positive predictive value. <b><i>The abstract basically said that in asymptomatic populations, the chance of a positive coronavirus test being a true positive is only about 20%. 80% will be false positive.”<br /></i></b><br />“Doesn’t that mean the test means nothing?” I asked.<br /><br />“The Chinese analysis was a mathematical analysis, a standard, the standard analysis that’s been done a million times before. There’s no reason to withdraw the paper for any reason. There’s nothing dramatic about the paper. It’s a really boring analysis. It’s just that they did the standard analysis and said, in some populations, like they estimated 1% of people are actually infected in the population. You could have 80% false positive.<br /><br /><b>They couldn’t do a real analysis of false positives in terms of determining whether a test is correct or not because that requires a gold standard and the only gold standard is purification of the virus.</b> <br />So, we get back to the fact that the virus is not being purified. If you could purify the virus, then you could take a hundred people who tested positive and you could search for the virus in them. And if you found the virus in 50 out of a hundred and not in the other 50, you could say that the test is only accurate 50% of the time. <b><i><span style="color: #990000;">But we have no way to do that because we haven’t yet purified the virus. And I don’t think we ever will.</span></i></b>”</span><span style="font-family: arial;"><b style="font-style: italic;"><br /><br />I asked Crowe what he thought Kary Mullis would say about this explosion of PCR insanity.<br /><br />“I’m sad that he isn’t here to defend his manufacturing technique,” he said.<span style="color: #990000;"> “Kary did not invent a test. He invented a very powerful manufacturing technique that is being abused. What are the best applications for PCR? Not medical diagnostics. He knew that and he always said that.”</span><br /><br /></b><br /><b style="font-style: italic;"><a href="https://www.globalresearch.ca/covid-19-rt-pcr-how-to-mislead-all-humanity-using-a-test-to-lock-down-society/5728483">The COVID-19 RT-PCR Test: How to Mislead All Humanity Using a “Test” To Lock Down Society</a></b><br /><i>By Dr. Pascal Sacré</i><br /><i>Global Research, November 24, 2020</i><br /><br /><i>Official postulate of our managers: positive RT-PCR cases = COVID-19 patients. </i><br /><br /><i>This is the starting postulate, the premise of all <b>official propaganda</b>, which justifies all restrictive government measures: isolation, confinement, quarantine, mandatory masks, color codes by country and travel bans, tracking, social distances in companies, stores and even, even more importantly, in schools.</i><br /><br /><i>This misuse of RT-PCR technique is used as a relentless and intentional strategy by some governments, supported by scientific safety councils and by the dominant media, </i><b>to justify excessive measures such as the violation of a large number of constitutional rights, the destruction of the economy with the bankruptcy of entire active sectors of society, the degradation of living conditions for a large number of ordinary citizens, under the pretext of a pandemic based on a number of positive RT-PCR tests, and not on a real number of patients. <br />[RT-PCR is an amplification technique, NOT a diagnostic tool.]</b><br /><br /><i>As I said at the beginning, <b>in medicine we always start from the person: we examine him/her, we collect his/her symptoms (complaints-anamnesis) and objective clinical signs (examination) and on the basis of a clinical reflection in which scientific knowledge and experience intervene, we make diagnostic hypotheses.</b></i><b><br /><br /><i>Only then do we prescribe the most appropriate tests, based on this clinical reflection.</i><br /></b><br /><i>We constantly compare the test results with the patient’s clinical condition (symptoms and signs), <b>which takes precedence over everything else </b>when it comes to our decisions and treatments.</i><br /><br /><i><b>Today, our governments, supported by their scientific safety advice, are making us do the opposite and put the test first,</b> followed by a clinical reflection necessarily influenced by this prior test, whose weaknesses we have just seen, particularly its hypersensitivity.</i><br /><br /><b><i>No test measures the amount of virus (quantity) in the sample!</i><br /></b><br /><i><b>RT-PCR is qualitative</b>: <b>positive</b> (presence of the virus) <b>or negative</b> (absence of the virus).</i><br /><br /><i>This notion of quantity, therefore of viral load, can be <b><u>estimated </u></b>indirectly by the number of amplification cycles (Ct) used to highlight the virus sought.</i><br /><br /><b><i>The lower the Ct used to detect the virus fragment, the higher the viral load is considered to be (high).</i><br /></b><br /><b><i>Above Ct 35, it becomes impossible to isolate a complete virus sequence and culture it!</i><br /><br /><i>In France and in most countries, Ct levels above 35, even 40, are still used even today!

My concern does not arise because I have negative views about vaccines (I don't).<br /><br />Instead, it's the very principle that politicians seem ready to waive that new medical interventions at this, incomplete state of development, should not be made available to subjects on anything other than an explicitly experimental basis.

That's dreadful. If you don't know what it is - shame on you." <br />Dr. Yeadon wants those who have tested positive for coronavirus to be tested again to eliminate the possibility of the test being a false positive. <br /><br />Dr. Carl Hennigan, professor of Evidence Based Medicine at Oxford agrees with Yeadon. <br /><br />The Tea Room posted just yesterday that <a href="https://www.fox6now.com/news/fda-warns-labs-about-high-risk-of-false-positives-from-medical-companys-covid-19-test">the FDA has finally admitted these tests are PRONE TO FALSE POSITIVE RESULTS</a>. <br /><a href="https://www.blogger.com/#">The New York Times </a><a href="https://www.blogger.com/#">Aug 29, 2020, wrote: </a>"Tests authorized by the F.D.A. provide only a yes-no answer to infection, and will identify as positive patients with low amounts of virus in their bodies.<br /><br /><br />Some of the nation’s leading public health experts are raising a new concern in the endless debate over <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2020/11/18/health/coronavirus-testing-home.html">coronavirus testing</a> in the United States: The standard tests are diagnosing huge numbers of people who may be carrying relatively insignificant amounts of the virus.<br /><br />Most of these people are not likely to be contagious, and identifying them may contribute to bottlenecks that prevent those who are contagious from being found in time. But similar PCR tests for other viruses do offer some sense of how contagious an infected patient may be: The results may include a rough estimate of the amount of virus in the patient’s body.<br /><br />“We’ve been using one type of data for everything, and that is just plus or minus — that’s all,” Dr. Mina said. “We’re using that for clinical diagnostics, for public health, for policy decision-making.” But yes-no isn’t good enough, he added. It’s the amount of virus that should dictate the infected patient’s next steps. “It’s really irresponsible, I think, to forgo the recognition that this is a quantitative issue,” Dr. Mina said.<br /><br />The PCR test amplifies genetic matter from the virus in cycles; the fewer cycles required, the greater the amount of virus, or viral load, in the sample. The greater the viral load, the more likely the patient is to be contagious.<br /><br />This number of amplification cycles needed to find the virus, called the cycle threshold, is never included in the results sent to doctors and coronavirus patients, although it could tell them how infectious the patients are.<br /><br />In three sets of testing data that include cycle thresholds, compiled by officials in Massachusetts, New York and Nevada, up to 90 percent of people testing positive carried barely any virus, a review by The Times found. <br /><br />On one Thursday, the United States recorded 45,604 new coronavirus cases, according to a database maintained by The Times. If the rates of contagiousness in Massachusetts and New York were to apply nationwide, then perhaps <b><i><span style="color: #990000;">only 4,500 of those people may actually need to isolate and submit to contact tracing.</span></i></b><br /><br />One solution would be to adjust the cycle threshold used now to decide that a patient is infected. Most tests set the limit at 40, a few at 37. This means that you are positive for the coronavirus if the test process required up to 40 cycles, or 37, to detect the virus.<br /><br />Tests with thresholds so high may detect not just live virus but also genetic fragments, leftovers from infection that pose no particular risk — akin to finding a hair in a room long after a person has left, Dr. Mina said. Any test with a cycle threshold above 35 is too sensitive, agreed Juliet Morrison, a virologist at the University of California, Riverside. “I’m shocked that people would think that 40 could represent a positive,” she said.<br /><br />A more reasonable cutoff would be 30 to 35, she added. Dr. Mina said he would set the figure at 30, or even less. Those changes would mean the amount of genetic material in a patient’s sample would have to be 100-fold to 1,000-fold that of the current standard for the test to return a positive result — at least, one worth acting on.<br /><br />“It’s just kind of mind-blowing to me that people are not recording the C.T. values from all these tests, that they’re just returning a positive or a negative,” Angela Rasmussen, a virologist at Columbia University in New York said. <br /><br />The C.D.C.’s own calculations suggest that it is extremely difficult to detect any live virus in a sample <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/hcp/duration-isolation.html">above a threshold of 33 cycles</a>. Officials at some state labs said the C.D.C. had not asked them to note threshold values or to share them with contact-tracing organizations.<br /><br />Officials at the Wadsworth Center, New York’s state lab, have access to C.T. values from tests they have processed, and analyzed their numbers at The Times’s request. In July, the lab identified 872 positive tests, based on a threshold of 40 cycles.<br /><br />With a cutoff of 35, about 43 percent of those tests would no longer qualify as positive. About 63 percent would no longer be judged positive if the cycles were limited to 30.<br /><br />In Massachusetts, from 85 to 90 percent of people who tested positive in July with a cycle threshold of 40 would have been deemed negative if the threshold were 30 cycles, Dr. Mina said. “I would say that none of those people should be contact-traced, not one,” he said.<br /><br />Dr. Ashish Jha, director of the Harvard Global Health Institute. “Boy, does it really change the way we need to be thinking about testing.”<br /><br />Dr. Jha said he had thought of the PCR test as a problem because it cannot scale to the volume, frequency or speed of tests needed. “But what I am realizing is that a really substantial part of the problem is that we’re not even testing the people who we need to be testing,” he said.<br /><br />But with 20 percent or more of people testing positive for the virus in some parts of the country, Dr. Mina and other researchers are questioning the use of PCR tests as a frontline diagnostic tool.<br /><br />People infected with the virus are most infectious from a day or two before symptoms appear till about five days after. But at the current testing rates, “you’re not going to be doing it frequently enough to have any chance of really capturing somebody in that window,” Dr. Mina added.<br /><br />These deaths may be characterized as being COVID related, but that's only because they have been falsely lumped into that category due to false positives being recorded within 28 days of death.<br /><br />Again, people are being tested very regularly, and the rate of false positives is extremely high. All hospital patients are also tested upon admission, so when they die — regardless of the cause — they're likely to have a false positive on their record, which then lumps them into the death tally for COVID-19.<br /><br />"The longer you stay in hospital, the more likely you are to die, obviously," Yeadon says. "You would be released if you were well and improving. So … long-stay patients are both more likely to die statistically, and much more likely to be tested so often that they'll have a false positive test.<br /><br />That is what I think is happening … It's a convenience for someone playing some macabre game, because I don't think it's an error anymore … I've spoken to people in [public health] and they're embarrassed that they're not even being allowed to characterize and publish the information you would need to know to work out how useful the test is. That's not being done."<br /><br />Since COVID-19 first began circulating within the United States, public health officials have known that those with underlying medical conditions face higher risks for severe illness and death if they contract the disease. A <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid_weekly/index.htm?fbclid=IwAR3-wrg3tTKK5-9tOHPGAHWFVO3DfslkJ0KsDEPQpWmPbKtp6EsoVV2Qs1Q">recent report from the CDC</a> appears to drill down that point with striking numbers, showing that 94% of U.S. deaths involving COVID-19 since February were also associated with other conditions, or comorbidities.<br /><br />As I have shown before, according to the CDC's own web page: "For 6% of [coronavirus disease 2019] deaths, COVID-19 was the only cause mentioned. For deaths with conditions or causes in addition to COVID-19, on average, there were 2.6 additional conditions or causes per death. The number of deaths with each condition or cause is shown for all deaths and by age groups."<br /><br />In an <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ch7wze46md0">interview last week</a> Dr. Yeadon was asked: <br />“we are basing a government policy, an economic policy, a civil liberties policy, in terms of limiting people to six people in a meeting…all based on, what may well be, completely fake data on this coronavirus?”<br /><br />Dr. Yeadon answered with a simple “yes.”<br /><br />Dr. Yeadon said in the interview that, given the “shape” of all important indicators in a worldwide pandemic, such as <a href="https://covidtracking.com/data/national">hospitalizations</a>, ICU utilization, and deaths, “the pandemic is fundamentally over.”<br /><br />Yeadon said in the interview:<br /><br />“Were it not for the test data that you get from the TV all the time, you would rightly conclude that the pandemic was over, as nothing much has happened. Of course people go to the hospital, moving into the autumn flu season…but there is no science to suggest a second wave should happen.”<br /><br />In a paper published this month, which was co-authored by Yeadon and two of his colleagues, <a href="https://lockdownsceptics.org/addressing-the-cv19-second-wave/">“How Likely is a Second Wave?”</a>, the scientists write:<br /><br />“It has widely been observed that in all heavily infected countries in Europe and several of the US states likewise, that the shape of the daily deaths vs. time curves is similar to ours in the UK. Many of these curves are not just similar, but almost super imposable.”<br /><br />In the data for UK, Sweden, the US, and the world, it can be seen that in all cases, deaths were on the rise in March through mid or late April, then began tapering off in a smooth slope which flattened around the end of June and continues to today.

However, some researchers are not yet convinced that the mutation has any real-world impact on <a href="https://www.livescience.com/how-covid-19-spreads-transmission-routes.html">coronavirus transmission</a> at all. Instead, it's possible that the G variant's spread is due to chance, said Nathan Grubaugh, an epidemiologist at the Yale School of Medicine who co-authored a<a href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0092867420308175"> commentary</a> accompanying the paper's publication.<br /><br /><b>G versus D <br /></b><br />Original samples of the novel <a href="https://www.livescience.com/what-are-coronaviruses.html">coronavirus</a> out of Wuhan, China, were a variation that scientists now call <b>the "D" clade.</b> <br /><br /><b>Before March 1, more than 90% of viral samples taken from patients were from this D variation.</b> <br />Over the course of March, <b>G began to predominate.</b> </span><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /><b><i><span style="color: #990000;">This mutation is caused by the swapping of an adenine (A) nucleotide to a guanine (G) nucleotide at a particular spot in the coronavirus genome.</span></i></b> It always appears alongside three other mutations that similarly swap one building block of RNA for another. (The letters in RNA help code for the proteins the virus makes once inside a cell.)<br /><br />The G variant represented 67% of global samples taken in March, and 78% of those taken between April 1 and May 18. During this time, the locus of the outbreaks shifted away from China into Europe and the United States.<br /><br /><b><i>The mutation piqued interest because it seemed to take over even in areas were the D variation had initially held sway</i></b>, said Bette Korber, the lead author of the new Cell paper and a computational biologist at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico. She and her colleagues at Duke University and the La Jolla Institute of Immunology in California inserted the G mutation and D mutations into pseudoviruses, which are viruses engineered to display the surface proteins of other viruses. Pseudoviruses are useful, Korber told Live Science, because they can't spread disease and because they contain molecular tags that researchers can use to track their movement into cells.<br /><br />The researchers then exposed cell cultures to pseudoviruses with either the G or D variants of the coronavirus spike protein to track which was more infectious. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><b><i><br />They found that the G variations led to much higher amounts of virus in the cell culture, indicating increased infection and replication. The viral loads found from G variations of the spike protein were 2.6 to 9.3 times larger than from the D variations of the spike protein.</i></b><br /><br />The pseudoviruses and cells used in the experiment were neither real coronavirus nor human <a href="https://www.livescience.com/52250-lung.html">lung</a> cells, <b><i>but another study that used infectious SARS-CoV-2 virions reached similar findings.</i></b> That study, which was published July 7 to the preprint server <a href="https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.06.14.151357v2">bioRxiv</a> and has not yet been peer-reviewed, was spearheaded by biologist Neville Sanjana at New York University. He and his colleagues tested the G and D versions of SARS-CoV-2 in cell cultures, <b><u>including human lung cells,</u></b> and <b>found that the G variant infected up to eight times more cells than the D variant.</b><br /><br /><br />Some clinical work has suggested that the G variant's apparent advantage might hold outside of the Petri dish. A study, posted May 26 to the pre-print database <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7274239/">medRxiv</a>, also not yet peer-reviewed, led by Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine researchers Dr. Egon Ozer, Judd Hultquist found three distinct versions of SARS-CoV-2 circulating in Chicago in mid-March. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">Some matched the dominant version circulating in New York City, some matched the predominant version from the West Coast, and some seemed most closely related to the original samples from China.<br /><br />"The virus kind of came both ways around the globe and smacked into Chicago and we got virus originally from China, we think, thanks to O'Hare being such a transportation hub," Hultquist told Live Science.<br /><br /><b>The New York clade, which contained the G mutation,</b> <b>was linked to a higher viral load in the upper airways than the virus that was closer to the original China strain, the researchers found.</b> </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br />Researchers in Washington state <a href="https://github.com/blab/ncov-D614G">have released similar findings</a>. If the results hold up, they could hint at <b><u><span style="color: #990000;">increased transmission</span></u></b>, because higher levels of virus in the upper airways might translate to more virus emitted when people breathe and talk, Ozer told Live Science. <br />But it's impossible to say for sure, he said. Scientists don't even know how many virions a person needs to come into contact with to get infected, so it's not clear if the extra viral load makes a difference.<br /><br /><b>The outbreak in New York seeded many of the outbreaks in the rest of the United States, including many places where the virus is now running essentially unchecked.<br /></b><br />"What's going to be important now is to continue to monitor in these places," Grubaugh said. If the G variant continues to dominate even in places where both the G and D versions are present, that might be a sign that the G mutation does provide the virus a transmission advantage.<br /><br /><b>The G614 mutation is part of a cluster of four mutations that appear together, Korber said, so more work needs to be done on what the other three mutations might do.</b> </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br />Another important line of work will be testing the genetic variants in animal models that better mimic human transmission. Scientists are working with a number of animals, from<a href="https://www.cell.com/trends/pharmacological-sciences/fulltext/S0165-6147(20)30129-2"> ferrets to Syrian hamsters to macaques</a>, to study the coronavirus, but they haven't yet established which animals best represent how the disease spreads from human to human. (Hamsters and ferrets catch <a href="https://www.livescience.com/54509-flu-influenza.html">influenza</a> much like humans, so scientists hope that they might also be a good animal model for coronavirus spread.)<br /><br />The findings indicate that it's important for scientists to keep track of the virus' mutations as it spreads. As the virus interacts with more and more <a href="https://go.redirectingat.com/?id=92X1590019&xcust=livescience_us_2189461009928989200&xs=1&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.shutterstock.com%2Fimage-photo%2Fuv-light-sterilization-face-mask-disinfect-1701548905&sref=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.livescience.com%2Fnew-coronavirus-mutation-explained.html">immune systems</a>, it will experience more evolutionary pressure and may continue to change, Ozer said. <br /><br /><b>"We have seen that in the course of one month, a particular form of the virus can go from being very rare to the globally most common form," Korber said. "It could happen again."</b><br /><br />"We can't even get a handle on testing, we don't have effective control measures really at all right now… If we keep allowing opportunities for the virus to have a new host, then it's going to keep on spreading, regardless of if it's a more fit variant or not," Grubaugh argued.<br /></span><p style="border: 0px;

Scientists are now asking the public to report in their <a href="https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/southwest-avian-mortality-project">online database</a> if ever they find dead birds. They also ask people to collect the birds so that experts can study them safely.</span><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;">The dead birds include various insect-eating birds such as sparrows, blackbirds, goldfinches, wrens, warblers and bluebirds.</span><br style="font-family: arial;" /><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span><div><span style="font-family: arial;">NMSU biologist Allison Salas says she sent some students around campus on Monday to search for birds. They came back with “several individuals of different species” within a few hours. <br /><br />“The birds seem to be in relatively good condition, except that they are extremely emaciated,” she wrote on <a href="https://twitter.com/salasphorus/status/1304973085833981952?s=20">Twitter</a>. “They have no fat reserves and barely any muscle mass. Almost as if they have been flying until they just couldn’t fly anymore.”<br /><br />"If you start to see large numbers of dead birds in your area, especially the southwest (NM, AZ, even W. Texas) please report it to your state Game & Fish Agency or USFWS," Salas tweeted. <br /><br /><b>The birds have been seen acting strange before their deaths, </b>according to experts at NMSU. Many species that typically perch in trees or bushes have been spotted hopping around on the ground. The birds have often appeared dazed, and many have been hit by cars because they’ve been too slow to get out of the way.<br /><br />“People have been reporting that the birds look sleepy … they’re just really lethargic,” Trish Cutler, a biologist at the WSMR, told the <a href="https://www.lcsun-news.com/story/news/2020/09/12/mass-deaths-migratory-birds-new-mexico-environment/5780282002/">Las Cruces Sun News</a>.<br />"We have resident birds that live here, some of them migrate and some of them don’t, but we’re not getting birds like roadrunners or quail or doves.”<br /><br /><b><i>People in Colorado, Arizona and Texas are seeing similar deaths, according to an <a href="https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/southwest-avian-mortality-project">iNaturalist</a> tracking project run by Desmond’s team.

Talk about HYSTERIA! They're doing all they can to create the proper mindset n Americans to MINDLESSLY roll up sleeves and get that 'Savior Shot' along with whatever has been predetermined for that to include. <br /><br />Take the shot like good little boys and girls and never mind all this business of mass die-offs, signs that WE HUMANS are maybe next on the list. <br /><br />If the FISH are gone, the BIRDS (chickens, ducks, turkeys, quail, food birds) are gone, the BEES are gone, leaving little to pollinate our FOOD crops, if there's something seriously wrong in the air above us, in the oceans at our shores, in our rivers, lakes, streams, in the balance of Nature, surely we follow. <br /><br />Industry can't be bothered with facts from Nature.<br />Industry must NOT be slowed by imbalances of a global level.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">Industry doesn't care about anything but profits, but Industry is STUPID, because once what sustains mankind is GONE, mankind is up next. <br />Then, who will be left to run Industry? <br /><br />Viruses have FAILED to lower human populations sufficiently to suit the "experts" who have 'warned' and fear-mongered for decades that we MUST attain a "SUSTAINABLE POPULATION". <br /><br />The idiots in charge have yet to properly point out the handwriting on the wall, that when ENOUGH of our food supply is gone, STARVATION will accomplish what viruses failed to do. <br /><br />Not that viruses haven't played key roles...<br />Avian Flu, Swine Flu have culled our food supply tremendously, but lesser known viruses are out there.<br /> <br /><br /><b>--JAPANESE B-ENCEPHALITIS</b><br />This is a fatal disease of pigs, horses, sheep, birds and man. The infection is caused by a flavivirus, a single stranded RNA virus. It is transmitted by the bite of the Culex tritaeniorhynchus mosquito.--FOOT & MOUTH DISEASE<br /><br /><b>--Foot-and-mouth disease</b> (FMD) or hoof-and-mouth disease is a highly contagious and sometimes fatal viral disease of domestic animals such as cattle, water buffalo, sheep, goats and pigs, as well as antelope, bison and deer. It is caused by foot-and-mouth disease virus. Seven main types of Foot and Mouth Virus are believed to exist <br /><br /><b>--Hantaviruses</b> are spread to humans by rodents, particularly mice and rats. People can become infected with <a href="https://www.livescience.com/23029-hantavirus.html">a hantavirus</a> if they come into direct contact with the bodily secretions of these animals or if they breathe in virus-carrying particles from those secretions that have become aerosolized.<br /><br /><b>--Variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease</b><br />It's classified as a Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathy (TSE) -- caused by prions, not actual viruses-- transmissible because it can be spread from cattle to humans and spongiform because it causes a characteristic "spongy" degeneration of brain tissue.<br /><br />Humans can get vCJD when they eat beef from cows with Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE), a disease similar to vCJD that occurs in cattle.<br /><br />As of 2018, there is no cure or effective treatment for CJD. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>--Marburg virus</b> belongs to the <b>Filovirus family</b> of viruses, whose defining characteristic are the filamentous shapes of the viral particles.

There are plant viruses, insect viruses, fungal viruses, and even viruses that infect only amoeba and bacteria. Now a group of researchers at the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique in France has made the startling discovery that even some viruses can have viruses.<br /><br />In a paper in Nature in 2008, the group described how they identified a <a href="https://www.livescience.com/82-huge-virus-defies-classification.html">giant mimivirus</a> in a cooling tower in France. Mimiviruses are the largest <a href="https://www.livescience.com/1477-invisible-world-microbes.html">viruses</a> known to exist — so big they are visible under a normal optical microscope (usually much higher resolution electron microscopes are needed to view them). The new virus, large even by mimivirus standards, was appropriately named "<b><i>mamavirus</i></b>."<br /><br />In the same cooling tower, the French group also discovered a second, tiny virus that infects the giant mamavirus. This they named "Sputnik."<br /><br />The group sequenced Sputnik's genetic code and discovered that a number of its gene sequences are similar to those found in a massive survey of genetic material taken from oceans all over the globe. This suggests that a whole class of viruses might exist that infect <a href="https://www.livescience.com/7472-kill-viruses-shake-death.html">other viruses</a>.<br /><br /><b><i>We explore space but know far too little about Planet Earth and what affects the species found here. <br /><br />Seems to me, as it has for over 60 years, that it would better serve life on earth to know our own planet first, to spend all those billions we now spend on space exploration to secure the health and well-being of this little blue marble before we look beyond to places we can't know would sustain human life. <br /></i></b></span><br style="font-family: arial;" /><b><i><span style="font-family: arial;">When the NATURAL WORLD collapses, all of Industry will just fall down. </span><br style="font-family: arial;" /><br style="font-family: arial;" /><span style="font-family: arial;">We are ALL connected. </span><br style="font-family: arial;" /><span style="font-family: arial;">We ALL are sustained by very thin threads and will continue, or not, as a species depending on which and how many threads BREAK. </span><br style="font-family: arial;" /></i></b><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><b><i>//WW</i></b><br /><br /><br /></span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2
