Mortality Trends Among Early Adults in the United States, 1999-2023Uploaded 10-02-25https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2829783US population groups, ages 25-44 years, 1999 – 2023All cause mortalityOther natural causes of deathTransportAlcohol relatedHomicideEndocrine, nutrition, metabolicDigestiveCirculatoryCancersMutually exclusive underlying cause-of-death categories were adapted from prior workUsed baseline of 1999 to 2010, to project expected mortality trends for 2011 to 2023.We analyzed 3, 392, 364 deaths among the full US population aged 25-44 years from 1999 to 2023. In 2021, all-cause excess mortality was nearly 3 times what it had been in 2019(116.2 vs 41.7 deaths per 100 000 population). In 2023, excess mortality decreased to79.1 deaths per 100 000 population.Early adult mortality was 70.0% higher in 2023 than it would have been had pre-2011 trends continued, reflecting 71, 124 excess deaths.Although mortality rates decreased after the core pandemic years, excess mortality remained higher than expected based on prepandemic levels. Increases in early adult mortality can signal population risks that may become more pronounced as these cohorts age. These results suggest the possibility of a worsening mortality crisis unless these trends are reversed. The 2 distinct phases of increasing mortality (before and after 2020) may also suggest the need to attend to ongoing consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic,causes of death related to long-term consequences of infection, medical disruption, and social dislocation—and to deleterious health trends that predated it.

Through the use of closed questions and the refusal to allow them to present science supporting their concerns (as they were not deemed ‘expert witnesses’’), Dr Engler commented that “despite their valiant efforts, the few dissenting voices who were allowed to speak had their testimony constrained by both the questions asked and the answers they were permitted to give.” Learn more about your ad choices.

But when new data proves it wrong, you have to adapt.Unfortunately, many elected leaders and public health officials have held on far too long to the hypothesis that natural immunity offers unreliable protection against covid-19,a contention that is being rapidly debunked by science.Sixteen studies have demonstrated the power of acquired immunityThat’s why it’s so frustrating that the Biden administration has repeatedly argued that immunity conferred by vaccines is preferable to immunity caused by natural infection, In my clinical experience, I have found patients to be extremely forgiving with evolving data if you are honest and transparent with them. The incorrect hypothesis that natural immunity is unreliable has resulted in the loss of thousands of American lives,avoidable vaccine complications, and damaged the credibility of public health officials. it would be good for our public health leaders to show humility by acknowledging that the hypothesis they repeatedly trumpeted was not only wrong, but it may be harmful.

This is the 10th article I have written for Quadrant on covid pandemic management. Prior to the pandemic my 300+ publications had been in peer reviewed medical journals. Most reported research on airway immune protection which has been my passion for 50 years. In 2019 the University of Newcastle awarded me a Doctor of Science for this work (I was informed that this was the first such award given by the University). My point is that in 2020 with the appearance of SARS-CoV-2 (the virus causing Covid-19), entirely by circumstance, I was as well placed as anyone to understand this new airway infection, its pathogenesis and its management. Specifically, the likely place for vaccination in the control of the pandemic. That is what I did. So, why write 10 articles for Quadrant that were critical of the official response to the pandemic? The answer is a simple one. Everything I had understood about the history of pandemics, the science-based development of an Australian Pandemic Plan, the immunology of mucosal (airway) infections, and the sanctity of the doctor-patient relationship, had been summarily replaced with a narrative centred on a genetic vaccine that had never been used in man, and that did not exist. At this stage the medical press that I had worked with for 50 years had been bought by the narrative and would publish nothing that threatened to compromise it. The legacy press (including its ‘experts’) wore ignorance on a grubby sleeve. But these were the prisms through which medical professionals and the public would learn about the pandemic to inform decisions that affected their patient’s, and their own, health.The narrative made no sense to me. It denied historic experience. It was confused with inherent dangers by neglecting what could be done, while failing to anticipate what might happen. The official Australian Pandemic Plan had been updated in 2019 for an anticipated influenza pandemic. This was modified to cover the new SARS-CoV-2 pandemic early in 2020. Experience with influenza was considered an appropriate model for a pandemic involving a corona virus mutant.How did this narrative conflict with the Plan it replaced? First, it ignored the lessons of epidemiology and science. The corollary was the punitive lockdowns and senseless vaccine mandates. Second, it denied the use of safe, cheap and effective repurposed drugs, decisions that contributed to needless loss of life amongst the most vulnerable. Third and at its centre, it distorted views regarding what could be expected as clinical outcomes of a global mRNA vaccination programme, while minimising concerns an untested genetic vaccine m Learn more about your ad choices.

It can be severe or non-serious, but it can lead to a serious medical condition.According to the CIOMS Working Group VIIhttps://cioms.chThe Council for International Organizations of Medical Sciences (CIOMS),international, non-governmental, non-profit organization established jointly by WHO and UNESCO in 1949. Such events should be described in protocols or protocol amendments, and instruction provided for investigators as to how and when they should be reported to the sponsor.The original Pzifer appendix is a wall of words with the diagnoses separated by semi-colons. More than 95% of the adverse events listed are life-changing. (for the bad)If you are lucky enough to have a diagnosis from your doctors and say it is not related to the shot, show this list to them. Tell them that Pfizer is watching out for those complications. Many doctors, nurse practitioners, or physician assistants don’t know. I didn’t until I read the whole list.Many of the conditions below are rare. That means a doctor may not have seen that condition before or might have forgotten about them from medical school. Rare also means there may be no standardized treatment for them.The diagnosis on the list does not mean they always happen with the COVID-19 shots, but anyone who got “vaccinated” and then diagnosed with the illnesses below should be reported to Pfizer or the VAERS. The diagnosis may be months or years after the shots. You can still report them.The World Health Organization is also keeping an eye on the AESIs. AESI monitoring determines if there is a higher incidence of specific diseases in people who had the COVID shots. If the incidence is higher in people who had the shots, they should stop using these “vaccines”. That is if they do their job.This list may be from Pfizer, but ALL WHO HAD THE COVID SHOTS WHATEVER THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD REPORT THEIR DIAGNOSIS. Learn more about your ad choices.

The committee was concernedIndustry funding could cause MHRA, to “lose sight of the need to protect and promote public health above all else as it seeks to win fee income from the companies.” BMJ investigation (2022)We found that industry money permeates the globe’s leading regulators,raising questions about their independenceIndustry money saturates the globe’s leading regulators. The BMJ found that the majority of regulators’ budget—particularly the portion focused on drugs—is derived from industry fees A string of drug and device scandals Opioids, Alzheimer’s drugs, influenza antivirals, pelvic mesh, joint prostheses, breast and contraceptive implants, cardiac stents, pacemakers.Sociologist Donald Light, Rowan University, New Jersey“Like the FDA, the TGA was founded to be an independent institute. However, being largely funded by fees from the companies whose products it is charged to evaluate is a fundamental conflict of interest,and a prime example of institutional corruption.” It is no longer possible for doctors and patients to receive unbiased, rigorous evaluations from drug regulators.“Countries have independent safety boards for airlines and their passengers. Why not for drugs and patients too?”FDA “It’s the opposite of having a trustworthy organisation independently and rigorously assessing medicines. They’re not rigorous, they’re not independent, they are selective, and they withhold data. Doctors and patients must appreciate how deeply and extensively drug regulators can’t be trusted so long as they are captured by industry funding.” External advisers Advisory panels intended to provide regulators with independent expert adviceBMJ investigationSeveral expert advisers for covid-19 vaccine advisory committees in the UK and US had financial ties with vaccine manufacturersRevisiting financial conflicts of interest in FDA advisory committeeshttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25199895/Large study, FDA advisory committee members over 15 years,those with financial interests solely in the sponsoring firm were more likely to vote in favour of the sponsor’s product.TGA (FoI in BMJ)Conducted its covid-19 vaccine assessments based on “the information provided by the vaccine’s sponsor.” TGA said it had not seen the source (individual participant level datasets) data from the covid-19 vaccine trials.

This is the 10th article I have written for Quadrant on covid pandemic management. Prior to the pandemic my 300+ publications had been in peer reviewed medical journals. Most reported research on airway immune protection which has been my passion for 50 years. In 2019 the University of Newcastle awarded me a Doctor of Science for this work (I was informed that this was the first such award given by the University). My point is that in 2020 with the appearance of SARS-CoV-2 (the virus causing Covid-19), entirely by circumstance, I was as well placed as anyone to understand this new airway infection, its pathogenesis and its management. Specifically, the likely place for vaccination in the control of the pandemic. That is what I did. So, why write 10 articles for Quadrant that were critical of the official response to the pandemic? The answer is a simple one. Everything I had understood about the history of pandemics, the science-based development of an Australian Pandemic Plan, the immunology of mucosal (airway) infections, and the sanctity of the doctor-patient relationship, had been summarily replaced with a narrative centred on a genetic vaccine that had never been used in man, and that did not exist. At this stage the medical press that I had worked with for 50 years had been bought by the narrative and would publish nothing that threatened to compromise it. The legacy press (including its ‘experts’) wore ignorance on a grubby sleeve. But these were the prisms through which medical professionals and the public would learn about the pandemic to inform decisions that affected their patient’s, and their own, health.The narrative made no sense to me. It denied historic experience. It was confused with inherent dangers by neglecting what could be done, while failing to anticipate what might happen. The official Australian Pandemic Plan had been updated in 2019 for an anticipated influenza pandemic. This was modified to cover the new SARS-CoV-2 pandemic early in 2020. Experience with influenza was considered an appropriate model for a pandemic involving a corona virus mutant.How did this narrative conflict with the Plan it replaced? First, it ignored the lessons of epidemiology and science. The corollary was the punitive lockdowns and senseless vaccine mandates. Second, it denied the use of safe, cheap and effective repurposed drugs, decisions that contributed to needless loss of life amongst the most vulnerable. Third and at its centre, it distorted views regarding what could be expected as clinical outcomes of a global mRNA vaccination programme, while minimising concerns an untested genetic vaccine may have unexpected adverse event Learn more about your ad choices.

Natural immunity has been shown to be both highly protective and long lasting, and to safeguard against both re-infection and severe disease.Vaccination before or after SARS-CoV-2 infection leads to robust humoral response and antibodies that effectively neutralize variants(Oregon Health and Science University (OHSU) Portland, UShttps://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciimmunol.abn8014Antibody responses from the initial wave of vaccines in early 2021 have waned over 6 months,contributing to an increase in breakthrough infectionsWe measure neutralizing antibody responsesThose with breakthrough infections Hybrid immunityNo infection historyWe find that human immune sera After breakthrough infection and vaccinationAfter natural infectionbroadly neutralize variants to a similar degreeAge Negatively correlates with antibody response after vaccination alone, no correlation with age was found in breakthrough or hybrid immune groups.

You refer to the Brighton Collaboration, what is this and how did this feed in to your thinking? Brighton Collaboration identified adverse events of special interest following covid vaccinations, what adverse events were identified? You conducted a secondary analysis of the placebo-controlled, phase III randomized clinical trials of Pfizer and Moderna mRNA COVID-19 vaccines in adults. Tell us a bit about these trials, is this sort of trial standard in testing new pharmaceuticals? What is a secondary analysis? What do you mean by excess risk? What excess risk did you discover? Pfizer vaccines excess risk of serious adverse events 10.1 per 10,000 Higher than placebo baseline of 17.6 per 10,000 Is it fair to say that this transposes into one serious adverse event per 990 vaccines? Moderna vaccines excess risk of serious adverse events 15.1 per 10,000 Higher than placebo baseline of 42.2 per 10,000 Is it fair to say that this transposes into one serious adverse event per 662 vaccines? Combined RNA covid vaccines excess risk of serious adverse events 12.5 per 10,000 Is it fair to say that this transposes into one serious adverse event per 800 vaccines?

With Professor David Anderson. Link to order or download, Vitamin D and the Great Biology Reset, https://dgreatbiologyreset.com/Uploaded 25-02-25Professor David Anderson (retired endocrinologist) emphasizes the importance of vitamin D3, especially for those in northern locations where sunlight exposure is limited in winter. Vitamin D is primarily produced when skin is exposed to sunlight (UVB rays); Professor Anderson argues most people are deficient and should supplement year-round. According to Anderson, a blood level above 50 ng/ml (125 nmol/L in UK units) is necessary for proper immune function and to protect against various diseases. Professor Anderson claims that vaccinations deplete vitamin D levels, particularly the "reservoir form" (calcifediol), and he and his wife take supplements to counteract this effect. The professor takes 100,000 units of vitamin D3 monthly (via oil-based solution) and personally takes either daily supplements (5,000-10,000 units) or calcifediol weekly, Overweight individuals may need higher doses and should titrate with blood levels under their doctors. Anderson and co-author David Grimes have published books on vitamin D deficiency and COVID-19, available as free PDF downloads from their website. He claims vitamin D is protective against some cancers, assists brain repair after strokes, and is linked to preventing numerous other health conditions. Anderson expresses concerns about pharmaceutical companies being opposed to vitamin D supplementation, alleging they profit from keeping people vitamin D deficient. Learn more about your ad choices.

This is the 10th article I have written for Quadrant on covid pandemic management. Prior to the pandemic my 300+ publications had been in peer reviewed medical journals. Most reported research on airway immune protection which has been my passion for 50 years. In 2019 the University of Newcastle awarded me a Doctor of Science for this work (I was informed that this was the first such award given by the University). My point is that in 2020 with the appearance of SARS-CoV-2 (the virus causing Covid-19), entirely by circumstance, I was as well placed as anyone to understand this new airway infection, its pathogenesis and its management. Specifically, the likely place for vaccination in the control of the pandemic. That is what I did. So, why write 10 articles for Quadrant that were critical of the official response to the pandemic? The answer is a simple one. Everything I had understood about the history of pandemics, the science-based development of an Australian Pandemic Plan, the immunology of mucosal (airway) infections, and the sanctity of the doctor-patient relationship, had been summarily replaced with a narrative centred on a genetic vaccine that had never been used in man, and that did not exist. At this stage the medical press that I had worked with for 50 years had been bought by the narrative and would publish nothing that threatened to compromise it. The legacy press (including its ‘experts’) wore ignorance on a grubby sleeve. But these were the prisms through which medical professionals and the public would learn about the pandemic to inform decisions that affected their patient’s, and their own, health.The narrative made no sense to me. It denied historic experience. It was confused with inherent dangers by neglecting what could be done, while failing to anticipate what might happen. The official Australian Pandemic Plan had been updated in 2019 for an anticipated influenza pandemic. This was modified to cover the new SARS-CoV-2 pandemic early in 2020. Experience with influenza was considered an appropriate model for a pandemic involving a corona virus mutant.How did this narrative conflict with the Plan it replaced? First, it ignored the lessons of epidemiology and science. The corollary was the punitive lockdowns and senseless vaccine mandates. Second, it denied the use of safe, cheap and effective repurposed drugs, decisions that contributed to needless loss of life amongst the most vulnerable. Third and at its centre, it distorted views regarding what could be expected as clinical outcomes of a global mRNA vaccination programme, while minimising concerns an untested genetic vaccine may have unexpected adverse event Learn more about your ad choices.

Scientific progress is thwarted by the ownership of data and knowledge because industry suppresses negative trial results, fails to report adverse events, and does not share raw data with the academic research community. Patients die because of the adverse impact of commercial interests on the research agenda, universities, and regulators.Hierarchical power structures, product loyalty, and public relations propaganda over scientific integrity. Universities, have adopted a neo-liberal market approach, actively seeking pharmaceutical funding on commercial terms. As a result, university departments become instruments of industry: through company control of the research agenda,and ghostwriting of medical journal articles and continuing medical education, academics become agents for the promotion of commercial products.The corporate university also compromises the concept of academic leadership. Deans, (proper academics) have in places been replaced with fundraisers and academic managers, who are forced to demonstrate their profitability or show how they can attract corporate sponsors. In medicine, those who succeed in academia are likely to be key opinion leaders (KOLs in marketing parlance), whose careers can be advanced through the opportunities provided by industry,physicians are selected based on their influence on prescribing habits of other physiciansKOLs are sought out by industry for this influence and for the prestige that their university affiliation brings to the branding of the company’s products.

An Injection of Truth, Healing HumanityUploaded 04-03-25https://aninjectionoftruth.ca/Well I’m John Campbell extending a warm welcome from a cold North of England. Thanks to David Speaker for asking me to give a short message, not the same as being there in person, but perhaps slightly better than nothing.Your conference is well named, we need An Injection of Truth. As scientists we believe in the existence of an external objective reality.We believe this reality is testable as we strive towards empirical reality.Sadly, as has been the case so often in human history, truth risks being converted into a narrative. A stream of suggestions and thoughts that serve the purposes of vested interests. This often results in a move away from objective truth to little more than propaganda. People with power and influence have often subjugated those around them to ensure they are incorporated into ideas and systems which would not stand empirical analysis.Those in powerful positions have multiple modalities by which they promote their influence and narrative. Carrots are often offered, sticks threatened or actually used to inflict real injuries.Who knows, maybe some of these historical realities have been repeated over the past five years.Some meanwhile have stood tall, refused the bribe of a carrot, defied the pain of the stick. Many more have sadly capitulated to the propagation of the narrative. Many have simply trusted their overloads and quietly conformed.I suspect some at this conference are those who have stood tall. We feel free, (with the Apostle Paul), to test all things. We do have the body of scientific knowledge, we do have analytical techniques, if we find conflict between dictated narrative and the nature of reality, perhaps this conference if a good place to illuminate those discrepancies.Your conference is well named, Healing Humanity. Sadly, we look out on a sea of human pain, suffering and death.Some of this is innate to the human condition, some is the result of human actions.Thers is something special about human life. I think your presence today indicated your belief in this sanctity of life.We chose to use our skills, knowledge, science, medicine and public policies to identify that which is causing our species to suffer. We feel free to ask fundamental questions like when does human life begin, when does it end, how should it end?We use our lifelong learning to construct plans and interventions that can promote health and aid healing. We use our analytical scientific skills to evaluate the effectiveness of what we do, we then disseminate this knowledge as far as current constrains allow us.We may not heal all of humanity, but we can bring truth to light, and in doing so, help many, many people.Have a great conference.

Nuremberg October 1946 – April 1949 Their experiments differed little from those conducted before the war by German and American scientists. No international law or informal statement differentiated between legal and illegal human experimentation. “Permissible Medical Experiments.” Washington. U.S. Government Printing Office (n.d.), vol. 2., pp. 181-182.OneThe voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential. This means that the person involved should have legal capacity to give consent; should be situated as to be able to exercise free power of choice, without the intervention of any element of force, fraud, deceit, duress, over-reaching, or other ulterior form of constraint or coercion, and should have sufficient knowledge and comprehension of the elements of the subject matter involved as to enable him to make an understanding and enlightened decision. Before the acceptance of an affirmative decision,subject should know the nature, duration, and purpose of the experiment; the method and means by which it is to be conducted; all inconveniences and hazards reasonably to be expected; and the effects upon his health or person which may possibly come from his participation in the experiment.The duty and responsibility for ascertaining the quality of the consent rests upon each individual who initiates, directs or engages in the experiment. It is a personal duty and responsibility which may not be delegated to another with impunity.TwoThe experiment should yield fruitful results for the good of society,unprocurable by other methods, and not random and unnecessary in nature.ThreeThe experiment should be based on the results of animal experimentation,a knowledge of the natural history of the disease or other problem,the anticipated results will justify the performance of the experiment.FourThe experiment should avoid all unnecessary physical and mental suffering and injury.FiveNo experiment should be conducted where there is an a priori reason to believe that death or disabling injury will occur; except, perhaps, in those experiments where the experimental physicians also serve as subjects.SixThe degree of risk should never exceed,that determined by the humanitarian importance,of the problem to be solved by the experiment.SevenProper preparations should be made,and adequate facilities provided,to protect the experimental subject against even remote possibilities of injury disability or death.EightThe experiment should be con Learn more about your ad choices.

However, being largely funded by fees from the companies whose products it is charged to evaluate is a fundamental conflict of interest,and a prime example of institutional corruption.” It is no longer possible for doctors and patients to receive unbiased, rigorous evaluations from drug regulators.FDA “It’s the opposite of having a trustworthy organisation independently and rigorously assessing medicines. They’re not rigorous, they’re not independent, they are selective, and they withhold data. Doctors and patients must appreciate how deeply and extensively drug regulators can’t be trusted so long as they are captured by industry funding.” Revisiting financial conflicts of interest in FDA advisory committeeshttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25199895/Large study, FDA advisory committee members over 15 years,those with financial interests solely in the sponsoring firm were more likely to vote in favour of the sponsor’s product.

DNA contamination clearly identified by Dr David SpeicherUploaded 12-03-25An Injection of Truth. Healing Humanity.https://aninjectionoftruth.ca/The David Declarationhttps://thedaviddeclaration.org/Summary: Canadian Virologist Dr. David Speaker's Interview on Vaccine DNA Contamination(00:01-01:08) Dr. David Speaker presented unpublished data on DNA contamination in COVID vaccines that was rejected by four scientific journals without peer review.(01:08-03:22) Speaker's analysis shows COVID vaccine vials from Ireland, Canada, and Australia contain DNA contamination (including spike protein DNA and SV40 sequences) at levels exceeding legal maximums, with Australian samples showing particularly high levels.(03:22-05:23) The PCR studies used a low cycle threshold of 12 (compared to COVID diagnosis thresholds of 30+), showing SV40 DNA not only inhibits the p-53 tumor suppressor gene but enhances integration of DNA fragments into the human genome.(05:23-07:19) Current DNA contamination threshold levels were established for naked DNA, but modern vaccines use lipid nanoparticles that increase cellular uptake by 100x, suggesting safety thresholds should be 100x lower.(07:19-09:51) FDA/WHO guidelines for allowable DNA contamination became more lenient over time, increasing from 10 picograms per dose (pre-1996) to 10,000 picograms (10 nanograms) per dose after 1996.(09:51-12:26) The latest JN1 vaccine formulations still show high contamination levels despite manufacturers presumably being aware of the issue.(12:26-15:41) Speaker supports the David Declaration and Northern Group Letter of Concern, which call for a return to evidence-based medicine, a moratorium on mRNA technology, and support for vaccine-injured individuals.(34:04-39:05) The contamination data is presented on both linear and logarithmic scales, with the logarithmic scale demonstrating how dramatically the levels exceed historical (1986) safety limits.

A calibration of nucleic acid (PCR) by antibody (IgG) tests in Germany: the course of SARS-CoV-2 infections estimated https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/epidemiology/articles/10.3389/fepid.2025.1592629/full Germany, authority-accredited laboratories (ALM) Conducted 90% of SARS-CoV-2 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests (March 2020 until January 2023) AND Conducted serological mass tests for IgG antibodies, observed IgG seroprevalence trajectory. THEREFORE Test-positive fractions of PCR and IgG tests Value of 0.14 found for the fitted scaling parameter Therefore, 14% of those who were tested PCR-positively actually became infected with SARS-CoV-2. ALSO A quarter of the German population carried IgG antibodies from natural infections in their blood at the turn of the year from 2020 to 2021. Second, independent analysis Germany-specific ratio of 1:10 for ratio between one positive PCR test and the corresponding number of persons actually infected with SARS-CoV-2 Align well to perfectly with the IgG-positive fraction (92%) reported by the Robert Koch Institute at the end of 2021. More details Breaching the epithelial–mucosal barrier—“breach” meaning the invasion of a person’s organism by active viral material, it is common scientific terminology to say that “the person has become infected” Active viral material entering the mucus or epithelial cells may be bound and possibly already neutralized by IgA antibodies. In most infection cases, particularly when symptoms occur, IgG antibodies will also become detectable in the blood. The presence of IgG antibodies in the blood is representative of the body’s immunological memory of infections. IgG antibodies remained detectable for up to a year in at least 90% of naturally infected SARS-CoV-2-IgG-positive individuals PCR tests merely detect the presence of fragments of viral genetic material, not necessarily an active infection. Relationship between PCR and IgG results is crucial, since PCR-positive counts were widely interpreted as proxies for actual infections and served as the basis for public health policy decisions. Individuals whose PCR tests require CT values above 30 are commonly not to be considered infectious, whereas in practice, many tests were conducted with CT values up to 40 PCR assay produced positive results on water controls at cycle threshold (CT) values between 36 and 38 In short, a PCR test provides a snapshot of an individual’s current exposure to viral genetic material at the outermost layers of the body.

Borris Johnson, UnleashedUploaded 23-03-25https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13901757/Boris-johnson-covid-chinese-lab-memoir-wuhan-botched-experiment.html'The awful thing about the whole Covid catastrophe is that it appears to have been entirely man-made, in all its aspectsIt now looks overwhelmingly likely that the mutation was the result of some botched experiment in a Chinese lab.’'Some scientists were clearly splicing bits of virus together like the witches in Macbeth – eye of bat and toe of frog – and oops, the frisky little critter jumped out of the test tube and started replicating all over the world.'In UnleashedMr Johnson writes that the UK has fought this anthropogenic disease,'with an ever-growing panoply of restrictions that were literally medieval in their savagery and their consequences.''In locking down our societies, we showed that we had barely progressed since early modern England, when Shakespeare and his colleagues were repeatedly compelled by law to shutter the Globe Theatre, and when they had rules on human contact – no more than six to a funeral, for instance that eerily prefigured some of the arcane stuff we came up with, week after week, in the Cabinet Room.'A Cobra member (to the newspaper)(Government's secret emergency committee)Ministers were studying intelligence about an accident at Wuhan's Institute of Virology, where scientists were carrying out high-risk experiments to manipulate coronaviruses – sampled from bats in caves nearly 1,000 miles away - to make them more transmissible.At the time, the silence from the British political and scientific establishment was deafening. Rather than risk accusing Beijing of culpability for one of the most devastating pandemics in history, the official line remained that the virus had been passed on at an animal market in Wuhan, despite DNA analysis of Covid-19 tracing it to bats found only in distant caves.Sceptics conflated the thesis with the notion that China had deliberately released the virus as the by-product of a weapons programme.Brad Wenstrup, Final Reporthttps://oversight.house.gov/release/final-report-covid-select-concludes-2-year-investigation-issues-500-page-final-report-on-lessons-learned-and-the-path-forward/COVID-19 ORIGIN: COVID-19 most likely emerged from a laboratory in Wuhan, China. The virus possesses a biological characteristic that is not found in nature.Data shows that all COVID-19 cases stem from a single introduction into humans. Wuhan is home to China’s foremost SARS research lab, which has a history of conducting gain-of-function research at inadequate biosafety levels.Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) researchers were sick with a COVID-like virus in the fall of 2019, months before COVID-19 was discovered at the wet market.By nearly all measures of science, if there was evidence of a natural origin it would have already surfaced.PROXIMAL ORIGIN PUBLICATION “The Proximal Origin of SARS-CoV-2” publication — which was used repeatedly by public health officials and the media to discredit the lab leak theory — was prompted by Dr. Fauci to push the preferred narrative that COVID-19 originated in nature.GAIN-OF-FUNCTION RESEARCHA lab-related incident involving gain-of-function research is most likely the origin of COVID-19.
