How did Fauci know Trump would face a “surprise infectious disease outbreak”?

The COVID-19 coronavirus epidemic has a natural origin ...

 

This is one of those things that’s been stirring in my head pretty much since the beginning of this crisis.

COVID 19 is also known as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, which is shortened to SARS-CoV-2.  It is also called COVID 19 is a Corona Virus Disease discovered in 2019.



COVID 19, properly called the Chinese Wuhan Lab Virus, is more pathogenic than the previous version of SARS which appeared in 2003. The reason for that is thought to be attributable to the presence of a “spike” protein on the virus.

Spike proteins are what coronaviruses use to bind to the membrane of the human cells that they infect. The binding process is activated by certain cell enzymes.

SARS-CoV-2, however, has a specific structure that allows it to bind “at least 10 times more tightly than the corresponding spike protein of [SARS-CoV] to their common host cell receptor.”

Partly, this is due to the fact that the spike protein contains a site that recognizes and becomes activated by an enzyme called furin.

Furin is a host-cell enzyme in various human organs, such as the liver, the lungs, and the small intestines. The fact that this enzyme resides in all of these human tissues means that the virus can potentially attack several organs at once.

SARS-CoV and coronaviruses in the same family do not have the same furin activation site, some studies have shown.

The “furin-like cleavage site” recently discovered in SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins may explain the viral life cycle and pathogenicity of the virus, say researchers.

So how did it get there? We’ll speculate on that later.

November 2019: China knows of Patient Zero

Jan 3, 2020: China orders Wuhan scientists to destroy samples and suppresses information. Despite that, China allows a potluck dinner in Wuhan with 130,000 to attend

Jan. 14: Under orders from China, the World Health Organization declares COVID 19 is not contagious.

Now for some things you might not know. Fauci is neck deep in the Wuhan lab:

But just last year, the National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases, the organization led by Dr. Fauci, funded scientists at the Wuhan Institute of Virology and other institutions for work on gain-of-function research on bat coronaviruses.

In 2019, with the backing of NIAID, the National Institutes of Health committed $3.7 million over six years for research that included some gain-of-function work. The program followed another $3.7 million, 5-year project for collecting and studying bat coronaviruses, which ended in 2019, bringing the total to $7.4 million.

Many scientists have criticized gain of function research, which involves manipulating viruses in the lab to explore their potential for infecting humans, because it creates a risk of starting a pandemic from accidental release.

But “what’s Gain of Function?” you ask. This

 Gain of Function Research

Certain gain-of-function studies with the potential to enhance the pathogenicity or transmissibility of potential pandemic pathogens (PPPs) have raised biosafety and biosecurity concerns, including the potential dual use risks associated with the misuse of the information or products resulting from such research.

Fauci has spent a lot of time talking up “transmissibility.”

Now follow:

On October 16, 2014, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy announced the launch of the U.S. Government (USG) gain-of-function (GOF) deliberative process to re-evaluate the potential risks and benefits associated with certain GOF experiments.  During this process the USG paused the release of federal funding for GOF studies anticipated to enhance the pathogenicity or transmissibility among mammals by respiratory droplets of influenza, MERS, or SARS viruses.

Enhance the transmissibility, you say…

And don’t miss this:

second phase of the project, beginning that year, included additional surveillance work but also gain-of-function research for the purpose of understanding how bat coronaviruses could mutate to attack humans. The project was run by EcoHealth Alliance, a non-profit research group, under the direction of President Peter Daszak, an expert on disease ecology. NIH canceled the project just this past Friday, April 24th, Politico reported. Daszak did not immediately respond to Newsweek requests for comment.

How to cause mutation it so it could infect humans. Hmmm

A top Australian vaccine researcher calls COVID 19 virus almost perfectly adapted for humans:

The coronavirus that causes COVID-19 is “almost perfectly human adapted” — lending credence to the possibility it was man-made in a Chinese lab, a top Australian vaccine researcher says.

Nikolai Petrovsky was shocked when research found that the virus was more virulent in humans than any other animal, the Daily Mail reported.

He said it was like the new strain of coronavirus, called SARS-CoV-2, was “completely optimized from day one without the need to evolve” like other viruses.

“This is a new virus that has never been in humans before, but it has an extraordinarily high binding to human receptors, which is very surprising,” Petrovsky told the Mail. “It is almost perfectly human adapted, it couldn’t do any better.”

Fauci strenuously argues that this virus did not come from a lab

“If you look at the evolution of the virus in bats and what’s out there now, [the scientific evidence] is very, very strongly leaning toward this could not have been artificially or deliberately manipulated … Everything about the stepwise evolution over time strongly indicates that [this virus] evolved in nature and then jumped species,” Fauci told the publication on Monday.

Based on the scientific evidence, he said the coronavirus wasn’t accidentally released from a lab either.

But Mike Pompeo says that there is “enormous evidence” that the virus came from a lab:

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said “enormous evidence” exists indicating the coronavirus pandemic began in a lab in Wuhan, China and that the ruling Communist Party did everything it could to keep the outbreak under wraps.

“There’s enormous evidence that that’s where this began. We’ve said from the beginning that this was a virus that originated in Wuhan, China. We took a lot of grief for that from the outset. But I think the whole world can see now,” he said on ABC News’ “This Week” on Sunday.

“Remember, China has a history of infecting the world, and they have a history of running substandard laboratories. These are not the first times that we’ve had a world exposed to viruses as a result of failures in a Chinese lab.”

Now the same Australian researchers suggest this virus was manipulated:

A forthcoming Australian scientific study concludes that the coronavirus causing the global pandemic contains unique properties suggesting it was manipulated in a Chinese laboratory and was not the result of a natural occurrence.

Five scientists who conducted the study discovered an unusual ability of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, as the pathogen behind COVID-19 is called, to easily infect humans.

The scientists said there is no sign so far that the virus can be found in other animals, including bats or the exotic wildlife sold for fresh meat at a market in the Chinese city of Wuhan, where the virus was first identified and where China maintains a major laboratory studying such viruses.

Jan 11, 2017, shortly before Trump is inaugurated, Fauci is part of a panel in which he says:

Anthony S. Fauci, MD, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said there is “no doubt” Donald J. Trump will be confronted with a surprise infectious disease outbreak during his presidency.

During a forum on pandemic preparedness at Georgetown University, Fauci said the Trump administration will not only be challenged by ongoing global health threats such as influenza and HIV, but also a surprise disease outbreak.

And he added

“We will definitely get surprised in the next few years.”

Definitely. Not maybe. Definitely 

Also participating in this panel was one Ronald Klain, a democrat lawyer operative, who said:

“It’s hard to think of a more important time to show a willingness to speak out in the public health community and the global health community than it is right now on the eve of Donald Trump becoming our next president,” Klain said. “The risks have never been higher, and the question of his perspective on these issues has never been more dubious than it is with Donald Trump.”

For a moment, let’s see what the amazing Klainkin was saying earlier this year:

Let’s look at what Biden’s “coronavirus adviser,” Ron Klain, was saying in February. Klain doesn’t have a medical background, he’s a political operative and a lawyer who Barack Obama made his Ebola czar. On February 13, Klain said that we “don’t have a COVID-19 epidemic in the U.S but we are starting to see a fear epidemic.” He then praised NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio’s call to go to Chinatown, go shopping and “stand with your neighbors” showing a picture of the mayor in close quarters with several people eating dim sum.

Klain and Fauci on a panel predicting with certainty that a surprise disease outbreak would occur under Trump?

Curious.

What did they know that we did not? Fauci’s history suggests that they knew a lot. IMO this virus was manipulated in a lab to be more pathogenic, transmissible and virulent to humans than it ever was naturally.

Fauci’s lab.

The virus got out of the lab and the Chinese knew it and it smothered the information. Their refusal to seal the province from the rest of the world while sealing it from the rest of China signals one thing to me.

Intention.

President Trump needs to have his Administration speak with one voice.
If Sec State Pompeo says there is ample evidence the Wuhan virus originated in a lab while Dr Fauci says it absolutely didn’t originate in a lab …… one of them needs to leave the White House briefing room.

Fauci was making an educated guess. Part of his work is to warn what could be coming. Scientists have known that this or something like it was coming for a long time now. A crossover from another species was predicted. Some variety of coronavirus was named as a likely candidate. Population density and routine global air travel set the stage for a pandemic. There had already been recent near-misses. It was only a matter of time.

This guy wrote a book predicting the current scenario, published in 2012: Why David Quammen Is Not Surprised

Faux xi has provided much disinformation during the entire scamdemic it gave the libs fodder to say Trump was ignoring science. Seeing he was the only one on the team who was to refute his utter bullshit?
You can say this was all predicted survivalists have been prepping for years based around several scenerios.
Big pharma married to our government is a rabbit hole for crimes against humanity that many dont want to venture into.
https://www.levinlaw.com/drug-injuries
Lawsuits never put these poison pushers out of business.
Maybe it has to happen once.

I believe Dr. Fauci has provided as much clarity as has been possible, given the need to work around and placate Donald Trump.

@Greg: Was that the easter bunny, right there behind the lying garden gnome called Fauci. The one that had the same scientific truth the entire scamdemic.
Not dangerous, to deadly, no mask to wear one, second wave to maybe not.
You go ahead and trust the pencil necked big pharma sucking weasel zipper.
I and millions are moving on.
Please tell us how the WHO sucking Fauci placated Trump.

May 29, 2020 – Wisconsin Sees Coronavirus Spike 2 Weeks After Abrupt Reopening

This is worrisome, as Wisconsin reopened ahead of most other states after their state Supreme Court struck down the Governor’s social distancing orders on May 13th. Let’s hope it’s a statistical anomaly.

@Greg:

Perhaps you would like to explain exactly what it is that Trump said that has your Hanes in such a wad?

@retire05: Well Well… Where is GREG? Oh Greg, care to answer the question?

@kitt:

Not dangerous, to deadly, no mask to wear one, second wave to maybe not.

??? ?? ???

@Greg:I

believe Dr. Fauci has provided as much clarity as has been possible, given the need to work around and placate Donald Trump.

Yes indeed. Please check Fauci’s box in the ballot in the next election….if it’s there.

No?

Guess Trump is the elected official….not Fauci.

@Greg:

Wisconsin Sees Coronavirus Spike 2 Weeks After Abrupt Reopening

Forbes failed to give the amt of tests, the percentage of infected not exceeding stage 2 goals.
with 1,395 intensive care beds we are no where near overwhelmed, one hospital 6000 proceedures behind mostly cancer screenings, we have had enough and need to move on to live our lives now, not the covid scamdemic Faux xi matrix.

In 2020, an estimated 606,520 people will die of cancer in the United States.

@Nathan Blue:

Guess Trump is the elected official….not Fauci.

Trump is the elected official. Our head elected official called for a national shut down (while at the same time promoting thugs to “liberate” states following his mandates).

The national shut down crashed the economy. Our head elected official then called for a reopening of the country and also said there would be no second shut down regardless of anything.

So, if doing it again would not be worth the economic ruin, why was the first? If the first wasn’t a mistake, why would a 2nd be a mistake?

@Ronald J. Ward: Most states re-opening have guidelines that the businesses previously shut down are following, senior hours for grocery stores, face masks, required, spaced seating in diners or outdoor dining. Still cant visit grandma at the home. The pools wont be open no kids sports. Some of the opening rules make no sense at all, how is a virus spread by splashing around in heavily chlorinated water?(screw it just take them to the lake the dog can go then too)
Im sure you saw the difference between the “open er up” protests and the Antifa/BLM “burn er down” riots our thugs heavily armed no property damage or death or theft..

@Michael: Sorry watching shape shifting Faucis changing “scientific” advice through this Scamdemic, think back in time. Or look it up. How “science guy” whistled a different tune, I still dont trust him at all never quite did. He is quite busy working with vaxx makers on crap that didnt work at all in animal runs but pushed to human trials. It will be as effective as seasonal flu shots 60 to 80 thousand deaths per year, I wont take a shot but everyone must decide for themselves.
If you are still wondering its called by population control freak Bill Gates the “final solution”.
If you remember Gates was involved in a contaminated vaxx polio related outbreak in India.

Step back for just a moment and consider exactly how much risk the countries that are pursuing various avenues of research into weapons of mass destruction are imposing on ALL of the people of Earth.

Weapons of mass destruction include in the first and most easily accessible tier both nuclear armaments and weaponized biologics, and beyond those are experiments in potentially devastating exotic physics that remain the province of science fiction right up to the time a practical application is made to work. (Do lasers that can shoot down planes ring a bell? How about hypersonic missiles?) There is no limit to how effective our efforts to kill off life on this planet can be.

Now look around and ask yourself what exists that might limit Man’s eagerness to self-destruct. Is there any hope that the World will collectively turn away from designing, building and using weapons of mass destruction? How many hands does it take to count the countries that have nukes or are developing them, and how many hands does it take to count the countries researching bioweapons? Is there really ANY hope of corralling this perverse interest in mass killing? Is there NO competing survival instinct?

Russia does it. China does it. WE do it. So first and foremost, get over your righteous indignation.

Fauci may very well be a small instrument in our national machinery of bioresearch, but he is not a decider, a mover or a shaker when it comes to our national policy and he certainly does not act independently when it comes to developing weapons of mass destruction. So turning on Fauci as if doing so might eliminate any significant risk of mutual self-destruction makes no sense at all.

The major “powers” of the World have been working on various means of mass destruction at least as far back as World War II, and by now many of the various genies are irreversibly out of their respective bottles, and there is no hope of getting them back in. I can see what’s coming. YOU can see what’s coming, and as far as bioresearch is concerned, Fauci can see what’s coming, too. So what if he said so. It takes a blind man not to see.

So don’t blame it on the good Doctor. Blame it on the foolishness of 8 billion people who think that they can selectively wipe out various portions of the World population without risking us all. It can’t be done.

I won’t say that we’re doomed, but I can’t see that there’s much hope for us in the long run. But go ahead and bury your heads in the dirt and blame easy targets like Fauci if it makes you feel better. Just remember that while your head is buried in that dirt, your big butt is waving about unprotected in the air above you, and sooner or later, it’s gonna get bit.

@George Wells:

Russia does it. China does it. WE do it. So first and foremost, get over your righteous indignation.

Well, at least you are putting thoughts in the Doc’s mind this time instead of mine. There is no “righteous indignation” about research. Research is not always about a weapon but a response to weaponization. The indignation is about the LIES covering for the Chinese. It is also about the strange coincidence of that guy that has been involved in the development of COVID19 being also involved in the response to COVID19. Coincidence or design?

Dr. John… coincidence or design?

@Deplorable Me:
That would be laughable if it weren’t for the fact that it completely misses the point – that people ALL inevitably make mistakes. Whether they conduct “research” with the stated purpose of developing ‘cures” for diseases that don’t yet exist, arguing that sooner or later someone else WILL develop them and we’ll need to be prepared, of if they are CREATING deadly pathogens to have on hand to use FIRST if the need arises, bringing them into existence is all it takes to guarantee that sooner or later they will be released.

Nobody honestly believes that Nagasaki saw the last atomic bomb, now do they? Of course not. And we have pretty good evidence that chemical weapons were used RECENTLY in Iraq, Syria and Venezuela. According to Pompeo, we also have “enormous” evidence that a bio-weapon was recently developed (yes? no?) and released by the Chinese. What, for Dr. Fauci? That logic is laughable. What ISN’T laughable is that human beings simply cannot trust each other to leave each other alone, and feel that they ALL have to develop weapons of mass destruction to either act as a deterrent against mutually assured destruction or as a sour-grapes doomsday weapon to make sure that if WE can’t survive, nobody can. When you couple that sort of thinking with the certainty of inevitable human error, you see why we have boxed ourselves into a hopeless corner from which there is no escape.

So again you resort to blaming that cannot solve the problem. Let’s say that China DID develop COVID-19, and that for some reason they DID release it. Do you think that they did that to just F_ck with humanity, or do you think that they KNEW that it would harm US disproportionately because we are so… “free”? Do you think that was their BEST shot? And that they essentially wasted it? I’m asking these questions because I see in the general course of how the Chinese government conducts its affairs there is some semblance of logic, but I see no point in what many have accused them of doing beyond their being dishonest about the virus in the apparent hope of saving face over having made some fatal mistakes. And you already agreed that there is no legal route to holding them accountable for that. So then Dr. John wants to blame Fauci? Why, because he’s available? An easy target? A mid-level functionary who serves at the pleasure of the President? Pppfffttt!

The problem is that there are simply too many people in the World. The Russians don’t see a single Kopek of value in an American life, and neither do we or anyone else see a penny (or its foreign currency equivalent) of value in any other life anywhere else on the planet. Retire05 sees no value in my life and I see none in hers.
THAT’S THE PROBLEM!
There are so many of us that we are worthless to each other!
Republicans and Democrats wish each other would disappear.
Blacks and Whites wish each other would disappear.
Muslims and Christians wish each other would disappear.
And on and on.
TOO MANY PEOPLE.
You can’t see that?
No matter.
Sooner or later, someone will push the red button, and the bombs will fly, or the viruses, or the chemicals… it won’t matter. The death and destruction that results will be the legacy of our technological cleverness and our unwillingness to abide our differences. WE will reap what we sow.

@George Wells: But that wasn’t the point. The point was that the virus was manufactured and it leaked or was released from the Wuhan lab, which Fauci helped finance, and all this has been lied about in order to try and cover it up.

@George Wells: .

Retire05 sees no value in my life and I see none in hers.

Why drag me into your crap posts, Wells? I am not the one who expressed disappointment that you were still breathing. And I am not interested in your MAD scenarios.

@retire05: Are you saying the voices in his head are LYING? YOU TAKE THAT BACK!!

@Ronald J. Ward:

The national shut down crashed the economy.

LOL. Is that your cult’s play now? Given Trump’s successes you’re going to say he “crashed” the economy?

Not going to work, junior.

So, if doing it again would not be worth the economic ruin, why was the first? If the first wasn’t a mistake, why would a 2nd be a mistake?

If you really need someone to explain this to you, I’d use your spare time to go back and get your GED instead of trying to speak with the mature, educated folk.

The usual Monday morning quarterbacking isn’t an actual stance on anything.

@George Wells: Hey George! Hope all is well.

Indeed, the usual human hatreds are at play currently. I’ve always followed the idea that there is “nothing new under the Sun,” and I still find that to be true.

The Dr. Fauci phenomenon is interesting. Both the Right and Left miss that Trump hired, and can fire, this guy…and he was picked because he’s a good counter-balance to Trump. Trump respected honesty, and that guy speak his mind, no problem.

The Left has been wrong to twist his words as some kind of Trump-bane, and the Right has to understand that Trump is allowing Fauci to do his thing. It’s all a bit of chess, I’d say. I’m glad we have Birx and Fauci, honestly. We’ve done well in this time, relatively, and we need to focus on all the people that have done so much to get us through.

Governors, nurses, and just the people wearing masks at your local Target/Wal-Mart.

As to your point of assured destruction, I take a more optimistic view. I think most people see the best in each other, even country to country. I teach my kid about what’s the issue in the Chinese government, but then we listen to traditional Chinese music and talk about the gifts Chinese culture has brought. It’s never an all or nothing thing.

Same with politics. Trolls here think I’m a Right-winger. I’d vote for the Dem party. They just need to let their true stars come out and do their thing. It’s all cycles.

My case is that our aim is to allow others to say and think what they want. That’s pretty clear. Even the ignorant ones.

If you try to cut down the tares, you’ll end up cutting down the wheat in the process. You have to let them both grow.

@Nathan Blue:
Hello Nathan,
All is well enough, considering. Meaning we’re still alive and not infected with anything we can’t shake. Interesting that nobody here has caught so much as a case of the sniffles since we’ve been masking and distancing, and we have no interest in stopping those measures until we have something better.

Both the Right and Left miss that Trump hired, and can fire, this guy.

Right to a point. Trump doesn’t usually pick someone for a job who is sufficiently respected by the general public that firing him later might result in serious political difficulty, but Trump has that in Fauci. In other words, yes, it was a good choice.

As for your optimistic take on World events, I’m afraid I don’t share your optimism. Please don’t mistake what I said for criticism of what we did to end World War II (we really had no choice but to use the nukes we’d made) nor do I criticize whatever steps we ultimately decide to take to protect ourselves from either bio-terrorism OR biological warfare.

As I see it, the problem is more fundamental to the human condition, which is in turn manifested by our overpopulation of the planet and the steps we instinctively pursue to correct that population pressure by purely Darwinian means. Would China be stretching beyond the limits of International Law the boundaries of the East China Sea if their population could sustain itself within its already existing borders? Why would they bother, otherwise? Would Brazil be destroying the Amazon jungle and the single largest remaining oxygen-generating biomass on the planet if they weren’t also exceeding the capacity of their geographic containment’s ability to sustain them?

Collectively, humanity has an incredibly distorted sense of its own invincibility, of its capacity to fix every single environmental disaster it creates, and of its right to consume everything that this World has to offer that future generations would otherwise inherit. Greed overwhelms stewardship, and it also blinds us to the peril it places us in. Why work hard to earn something when you can just take it from someone else? Look around the World and see how often that route is taken, and then look right here at home and see the same thing at work. That you teach your children to live by the Golden Rule is commendable, but as the World becomes further and further over-populated and as living by that rule falls further and further out of fashion, I am convinced that the effort to safely manage all of the various weapons of mass destruction that we and everyone else race to produce and deploy will ultimately fail.

It is for this reason that I just laugh when some point fingers at Fauci, or at China’s lies, or at the WHO’s mistakes, because none of those scape-goats touch the root problem, and focusing on them instead of the big picture simply guarantees that when push finally comes to shove, we will be powerless to stop the inevitable. What would be different, Dr. John, if Fauci was fired? How about if the WHO simply dried up and blew away without our cash? Or even if every last human being in China dropped dead? Would race relations in the USA improve? Would COVID-19 disappear? Would our two political parties embrace? Of course not. Nothing significant would change, because we have not figured out how to tolerate and abide our respective differences.

Survival of the fittest is, as Al Gore would have put it, an “inconvenient truth.” We are instinctively preordained to work out who is the fittest, and to exterminate the less fit. Our history is replete with the gory details of this endless effort, and as the instruments we devise become increasingly lethal, where do you see the effort ending? It will run its natural course. Either the human population will be decimated, allowing a small surviving fraction a chance to learn from a near-fatal mistake, our we will initiate our own extinction.

It might be useful to remember that many scientists who ponder the absence of contact by non-terrestrial aliens conclude that such absence is due to the ultimate conclusion of that same Darwinian prerogative of evolution – that societies that develop technologies sufficient to allow interstellar communication and/or travel also develop and eventually use weapons of mass destruction on themselves to the point of their own extinction.

@Nathan Blue:

The usual Monday morning quarterbacking isn’t an actual stance on anything.

And this is just the guy that picks up the dirty jock straps.

@Nathan Blue:
One last thought on my last. I am not proud that I am symptomatic of the problem I describe. I have no answer to the question of how we can break the yoke of our own oppressive instincts that served us so well when our numbers were endangered but now ruins our hope.

As a white male, I REFUSE to take responsibility for my gender’s historic oppression of women or my race’s enslavement of Blacks. I can’t cry over police oppression, as in one way or another, we’re more sh_tty to each other than not. I do not accept responsibility for robbing American Indians of their ancestral lands, for stealing the land North of the Rio Grande from its Mexican owners, for relieving Native Hawaiians of their islands, or for buying the “rights” to Alaska from Russia in spite of native Alaskans’ prior occupancy of that land. And as I previously mentioned, I find no fault in our development of atomic weaponry or weaponized viruses – we are only following the path that “higher” life inevitably takes in what is apparently by cosmic design the ultimate exercise in self-destructive futility.

People here complain about this petty political squabble or that, forever missing the forest for the trees. Yes, I’m old and losing my mind bit by bit as the years pass, but I can see clearly that we will never make it to the stars for the same reason that no visitors from them have made it here. Could we save ourselves? I doubt it. Anyone with the necessary perspective is labeled a crack-pot, and the Bible says nothing about crack-pots inheriting the Earth. So enjoy life – there’s more to hedonism than meets the eye.

@Deplorable Me: You had me laughing hard in real life…lol.

Dr. John,
Happy 4th of July!
I’ve been following you for quite some time. I rarely post comments, but had this one bookmarked and have waited for some other updates. As you know, this week, Dr. Fauci et al., were more or less forced under oath in congress to admit that these particular coronaviruses originated from pigs in China. although they tried to dance on the head of the needle and claim that they meant the “next” pandemic, they actually are doing damage control when it comes out that they actually built this one – because they were working on virus-v-virus “reassignment” gain-of-function to use against swine viruses. China has pig farms were almost wiped out in 2017-2018-2019 by two viruses: SADS-cov and African Fever Virus. it was these diseases that he has been talking about, and the apparent accidental release of the manipulated vaccine viral agent is what China, WHO, and now CDC and NIH have been trying to hide. There are too many investigators, including myself, who have nailed them on it. I posted the following expose on my blog over two months ago. Please give it a quick read as it has the history of China’s efforts to find a swine vaccine that is now plagueing the entire world:

The Makings of a Pandemic: Sick Pigs

thank you, and keep up the excellent work!
your wingman,
reeko

@reeko: I hope you add into your research the failures in accurate testing, have symptoms, false negative, safe to be with family or friends go back return to work. Padding numbers and Oh second wave-a mania.

@kitt: thanks for the reply. yes those are all valid issues about this virus – and the deliberate misinformation per se. however, my focus has been on the origination of this disease and why it is primarliy in “cluster” outbreaks. it appears that, and i will be posting another expose soon, that COVID-19 is not airborne – and never has been. it is spread almost the exact same way as Ebola, Cholera, and about a dozen other tropical diseases: thru sanitation. (or lack of sanitation. think cruise ships, carriers, subways, gay bar bathrooms, nursing home bathrooms, etc.) in other words, if it were a truly airborne virus there would be totally random infections and outbreaks. there aren’t. clusters are the main outbreaks. there are many overlaying maps online that u can check that against say, an Ebola outbreak. even the WHO and CDC are slowly admitting that yes, diarrhea – especially yellow diarrhea – and other gastroinestinal issues are THE PRIMARY (meaning first) symptoms of COVID-19. it is my contention that GI tract is the main and focal point of all COVID-19 and because it came from pigs – and contaminated pig meat – and that is not just a secondary observation, as the WHO claims.
FYI my wife and her business partner and their doctors have a combined professional experience of over 100 years specifically in “clinical research” focusing primarily on respiratory diseases. and yes, they are well-known in the respiratory clinical research industry as leaders in their field. just FYI. 😉 reeko

@reeko: It would be nice for them to say we dont know yet rather than give out deadly misinformation.
