<\/a><\/div>\nThe unfolding of the COVID-19 pandemic left many unanswered, or unsatisfactorily answered, questions. Why were effective drugs banned while a hypothetical vaccine was promoted? Why the sudden concern of the authorities for “saving lives”? Why the same measures across dozen of countries? Why the imposition of lock-downs when detection and treatment worked better? Why was a virus whose fatality rate is comparable to a seasonal flu, hyped to such an extent? Is SARS-CoV-2 a natural virus, or was it created in a laboratory?<\/p>\n
The present article aims to answer those questions and, more importantly, to decipher the true motives behind the global coronavirus show.<\/p>\n
Authorities and<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0Life<\/span><\/p>\n All the measures taken by the authorities relative to the COVID-19 pandemic centered around one motive: “saving lives”. This motive is in line with the very purpose of the authorities, whose mandate is to protect us, or so we’ve been led to believe.<\/p>\n That’s the hallmark of progressive thinking; year after year – thanks to human rights, democracy, humanitarianism, humanism and technological progress – barbarity and death are becoming a thing of the past. We are now “kinder and gentler,” as Steven Pinker puts it:<\/p>\n “Cruelty as entertainment, human sacrifice to indulge superstition, slavery as a labor-saving device, conquest as the mission statement of government, genocide as a means of acquiring real estate, torture and mutilation as routine punishment, the death penalty for misdemeanors and differences of opinion, assassination as the mechanism of political succession, rape as the spoils of war, pogroms as outlets for frustration, homicide as the major form of conflict resolution \u2014\u00a0all were unexceptionable features of life for most of human history. But, today, they are rare to nonexistent in the West,<\/strong>\u00a0far less common elsewhere than they used to be<\/strong>, concealed when they do occur, and widely condemned when they are brought to light.”<\/p>\n ~ Steven Pinker,\u00a0A History of Violence<\/a><\/em>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n The problem is;\u00a0this idyllic interpretation doesn’t stand up to hard, tangible facts<\/strong>. The table below lists conflicts of the 20th Century and their number of victims, and is extracted from David\u00a0Berlinski’s<\/a>\u00a0book,\u00a0The Devil’s Delusion<\/em>. The original table is 3-pages long, so I reduced it to mention only those conflicts with 1 million+ casualties.<\/p>\n Even with this limitation, the total number of deaths amounts to more than 177 million. In addition,\u00a0Devil’s Delusion<\/em>\u00a0was published in 2008, so it doesn’t list the recent conflicts in countries like Iraq, Libya, Ukraine or Syria.<\/p>\n How do we reconcile the alleged progress with these millions of avoidable deaths?<\/strong>\u00a0To maintain the illusion of “gentler and kinder” behavior, the authorities attempt to put a positive spin on wars, labeling them, “war for peace”, “war for democracy”, “war against communism”, “war against terrorism”, etc.<\/p>\n But these wars have nothing to do with the misleading slogans. They killed millions of innocent people, they were unjust, and often led to regimes worse than the ones they replaced. Do you remember Iraq’s\u00a0WMD<\/a>s, 9\/11 and Bin Laden conspiring from his remote Afghani cave, the attacks against Qaddafi and Assad while the leaders of Saudi Arabia and Qatar (two of the most regressive regimes in the world) are protected for decades, the\u00a0snipers<\/a>\u00a0in Maidan, the bogus incident in the Gulf of Tonkin, the anthrax that was used to justify the first Iraq war, anthrax that actually came from Fort Detrick?<\/p>\n The 20th Century tells the story of millions of innocent people sacrificed by the authorities on the altar of greed, lies, propaganda and deception.\u00a0The facts are here, they are stubborn, and they scream: “No, the authorities couldn’t care less about saving lives.”<\/strong><\/p>\n The same applies to the humanitarian sphere. Hunger kills\u00a09 million<\/a>\u00a0people every year. That’s 30 times\u00a0more<\/a>\u00a0than SARS-CoV-2 and its alleged\u00a0365,000<\/a>\u00a0deaths (the number of coronavirus deaths is being grossly exaggerated – we’ll deal with this point further down). It would cost between $7 and $249 billion to eradicate hunger. Meanwhile, the U.S. has already thrown more than\u00a0$6 trillion<\/a>\u00a0at the coronavirus crisis. That is\u00a024 times the highest estimate for the cost of eradicating hunger<\/strong>\u00a0in the whole world.<\/strong><\/p>\n The epidemiology sphere tells the same story. For decades, malaria has been killing about\u00a0500,000<\/a>\u00a0people every year (mostly children) while cheap and effective drugs are available. Solving the malaria problem would cost about\u00a0US$ 4 billion<\/a>\u00a0a year. In just 3 months, the US government has spent 1,500 times more on coronavirus than the cost of dealing with malaria.<\/p>\n In the same vein, every year the seasonal flu kills between\u00a0300,000 and 500,000<\/a>\u00a0individuals without alarming the authorities whatsoever.<\/p>\n Obviously, the authorities don’t give a damn about the millions dying every year because of malaria, hunger or the flu. So why this sudden concern about allegedly “saving lives”? What is the true motive?<\/p>\n Authorities and Control<\/span><\/p>\n While the concern of the authorities for “saving lives” is dubious at best, their thirst for control is obvious. The past years revealed a staggering increase in\u00a0CCTVs<\/a>, speed-cameras, mass spying on citizens, tracking applications, access to personal phones and email data, increased use of subcutaneous\u00a0microchips<\/a>, biometric IDs, face-recognition technologies, endless airport “security” procedures, a ban on cash in the interest of financial tracking, etc. All these measures came with a proportional shrinking of personal liberties.<\/p>\n Surveillance is only part of the control agenda. Legal pressure is another aspect, through the proliferation of norms, regulations, treaties, laws, decrees, certifications and amendments enacted at local, state, federal and supranational levels, leading to the control of every details of our lives. The EU is infamous for having enacted some of the most absurd\u00a0regulations<\/a>:<\/p>\n – a ban on ‘energy-inefficient’ hair dryers, toasters and kettles Such regulations defy common sense and clearly are not in the interest of the “greater good,” which suggests that ultimately it’s about control for the sake of control.<\/p>\n Hand in hand with the legal pressure comes an overbearing bureaucracy manifesting in a multiplication of agencies requiring mountains of paper to simply own a house, a car, a gun, or a business.<\/p>\n Increase in surveillance, regulation and bureaucracy are the symptoms of the same\u00a0growing control exerted by the authorities, which leads to a sense of oppression among the masses, and, sooner or later, this oppression triggers rebellion<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The authorities are very aware of – and afraid of – insurgencies. Any popular movement that threatens their power will be stopped by infiltration, subversion, propaganda, attrition and, if necessary, by sheer violence and assassinations. This last point demonstrates that, despite their claimed concern for “saving lives”, in order to keep their control the authorities are actually willing to do the contrary and sacrifice the lives of countless citizens.<\/p>\n Genuine popular uprisings have always been responded to with violence by authorities. From Ireland’s\u00a0Bloody Sunday<\/a>\u00a0– when\u00a0British soldiers<\/a>\u00a0shot 26 unarmed civilians during a protest march against\u00a0internment without trial<\/a>\u00a0– to the USA where Martin Luther King’s civil rights movement faced the\u00a0long hot summer of 67<\/a>\u00a0when police officers shot at black civilians and suspects indiscriminately, killing 43 people.<\/p>\n But that was decades ago, and since then authorities have greatly improved their methods of repression. That’s why we have witnessed over the past decade the\u00a0militarization of police forces<\/strong>, with helicopters, tanks, machine guns and snipers. The mission of police forces is to “serve and protect”, not the citizens, but the interest of the authorities. And make no mistake, the interests of authorities are usually in direct conflict with the interests of the people.<\/p>\n But we don’t have to go back decades to find examples of state violence. In France, the Yellow Vest movement has been going on for 18 months. It started with popular opposition to an\u00a0extra tax<\/a>\u00a0on fuel (fuel is already taxed at more than\u00a060%<\/a>\u00a0in France). Millions joined the marches and a majority of citizens support the movement. The authorities responded the usual way, with rubber bullets, tear gas, flash-bang grenades, batons, and water cannons. So far\u00a024,000<\/a>\u00a0Yellow Vest protesters have been injured, 24 lost one eye, 5 lost a hand, and 11 have died.\u00a04,000<\/a>\u00a0were arrested, 3,000 of whom were prosecuted, and 1,000 of them received jail sentences.<\/p>\n This kind of hard-nosed state counterinsurgency tactic is, however,\u00a0a risky approach because it can create heroes and martyrs and galvanize the people<\/strong>. A few genuine popular uprisings were successful, for example the counter-coup that brought Hugo Chavez back to power in\u00a02002<\/a>. Physical violence only goes so far. Instead of controlling bodies, it’s much more effective to control minds, because then you control the bodies indirectly. In this way, citizens can’t even think of the idea of rebellion.<\/p>\n Controlling minds is the ultimate dream of the authorities. A mankind comprised of slaves, complacent, hanging on the every word of government, agreeing to everything, accepting even the unacceptable. Robots that have shed any remnant of true personality and independent thought or deed.<\/strong><\/p>\n Dumbing Down the Population<\/span><\/p>\n The authorities have attempted and often succeeded to shape the human mind through various techniques. One way to control minds is through information (lies and narratives): overexposure to mainstream media – on paper and on screens – deep corruption of academia and research and, last but not least, the falling education standards combined with growing propaganda increasingly tailored towards the young.<\/p>\n Chemicals are another way to dumb down the population. For example, through the\u00a0fluoridation<\/a>\u00a0of drinking water, which is known to\u00a0lower<\/a>\u00a0IQ scores in children. In the same vein, there is an epidemic of autism (by 2040, it is estimated that\u00a010%<\/a>\u00a0of children will be born with autism) associated with\u00a0vaccination<\/a>\u00a0campaigns. Lead is another culprit, causing\u00a010%<\/a>\u00a0of intellectual disabilities, and its brain toxicity has been known for centuries. Despite that, lead is still found in tooth fillings, indoor plumbing, food, gasoline and water – like in\u00a0Flint<\/a>, Michigan.<\/p>\n And let’s not forget the boom in legal and illegal drugs, which can only have happened with the consent of the authorities. The so-called “wars on drugs” is a mere public relations campaign to maintain the illusion of good “authorities” and to eliminate traffickers who don’t toe the authorities’ line:<\/p>\n To an average American who witnesses the dismal spectacle of the narcotics traffic at the street level, it must seem inconceivable that the government could be implicated in the international drug trade. Unfortunately,\u00a0American diplomats and CIA agents have been involved in the narcotics traffic at three levels<\/strong>:<\/p>\n (1) coincidental complicity by allying with groups actively engaged in the drug traffic; ~ Alfred McCoy,\u00a0The politics of Heroin: CIA complicity in the Global Drug Trade<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n Nevertheless, the population control methods listed above have limitations. Propaganda eventually collapses under the weight of its own contradictions, and chemical substances can usually be avoided or mitigated to a large extent.<\/p>\n So, for the authorities, the fundamental question remains: how to implement a deep and irreversible mind control of the population? While\u00a0propaganda or chemicals can have significant influence on the human organism, there is something much more fundamental that is, today, within reach of the long arm of authorities: our own genetic code<\/strong>. Our mind and our body are to a very large extent the product of our DNA. If you can properly modify someone’s genetic code, you can change the way they think ‘at the source’ so to speak. And one of the best ways to profoundly and durably modify human DNA is viruses.<\/p>\n The True Nature of Viruses<\/span><\/p>\n Viruses are one of the oldest organisms, their presence attested to, at least,\u00a0550 MYA.<\/a>\u00a0They are also by far the most numerous organisms on our planet, with an estimated\u00a010<\/a>31<\/sup>\u00a0viruses in the oceans alone. That’s 10 trillion more than the estimated number of stars in the Universe (10<\/a>21<\/sup>). Viruses are also, and by far, the most diverse organisms, with an estimated\u00a0100 million<\/a>\u00a0different types of viruses on Earth. For comparison, there are about\u00a05,500<\/a>\u00a0known mammalian species on our planet.<\/p>\n Despite this astounding seniority, diversity and sheer number, viruses have until recently been understood to have an exclusively pathogenic role: spreading disease, suffering and death – in part due to scientist Louis Pasteur, who fathered\u00a0germ theory<\/a>\u00a0in the late 19th century, which limited germs (including viruses) to that role.<\/p>\n This misleading theory prevailed until the advent of genetic research, which today suggests that the truth about viruses might very well be almost the opposite of what Pasteur claimed:<\/p>\n “One of the most earth-shaking papers of this century was the publication of the human genome sequence. About half, possibly even\u00a0two-thirds of the sequence are composed of more or less complete endogenous retroviruses<\/strong>\u00a0(ERVs) and related retroelements (REs) […]. The\u00a0origin of REs is being discussed as remnants of ancient retroviral germline infections that became evolutionarily fixed in the genome<\/strong>.<\/p>\n About 450,000 human ERV (HERV) elements constitute about 8% of the human genome consisting of hallmark retroviral elements like the\u00a0gag, pol, env<\/em>\u00a0genes and flanking long terminal repeats (LTR) that act as promoters. Howard Temin, one of the discoverers of the reverse transcriptase, in 1985 already described endogenous retrovirus-like elements, which he estimated to about 10% of the human and mouse genome sequence. ~ Moelling K, ‘Viruses and Evolution – Viruses First? A Personal Perspective<\/a>\u00a0‘<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Our DNA code is literally made of viral sequences. This prevalence of viral sequences in human DNA is staggering even when only known virus sequences are taken into account. This omnipresence is confirmed by the numerous copies of the same viral sequence found all over the human genome:<\/p>\n “[…] humans, given the vast proliferation of insertion sites involving those 30 to 50 families of viruses, and the 200 or so subgroups. If, for example, we look at just the HERV clone 4-1 variant of the HERV-E family that was studied by Sekigawa in relation to SLE, the\u00a0human genome contained 85 copies of the virus at various integration sites within different chromosomes.<\/strong>\u00a0”<\/p>\n ~ Frank Ryan,\u00a0Virolution<\/em><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n In addition, most viral sequences are\u00a0integrated<\/a>\u00a0in our non-coding genes. Coding genes are like musicians who, instead of producing sound, produce proteins, which are the fundamental building-blocks of all life forms. Non-coding genes play an even more fundamental role; they are like a director controlling the musicians,\u00a0modulating<\/a>\u00a0the expression of coding genes.<\/p>\n The numerous viral sequences found in our DNA are not a genetically neutral archaism; it is now proven that endogenous viruses have beneficial effects on the host:<\/p>\n “In 1996, Roy J Britten, of the California Institute of Technology, was able to list\u00a0ten examples in which endogenous retroviral sequences helped regulate the expression of a useful gene<\/strong>. Seven of the ten examples were human.”<\/p>\n ~ Frank Ryan,\u00a0Virolution<\/em><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n About the term “endogenous” used above: our ancestors were exposed to a new virus (exogenous = transmissible virus) and integrated the code of this virus into their very own DNA (endogenous = hereditary virus). In fact, not only do endogenous viruses have beneficial effects as shown by the quote above, but it seems that their presence is even necessary for life forms to exist:<\/p>\n “[…] when Corrado Spadafora, the Italian researcher who has produced such pioneering work in cancer research, applied an anti-reverse transcriptase drug in this very early stage of embryogenesis in the mouse,\u00a0all development ceased at the four-cell stage. It would appear that endogenous retroviruses are playing a very profound, if completely unknown, role at this early stage in mammalian embryogenesis.<\/strong>\u00a0”<\/p>\n ~ Frank Ryan,\u00a0Virolution<\/em><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n The role of viruses is so prominent in human DNA that some\u00a0researchers<\/a>\u00a0are asking: “Are viruses our oldest ancestors?”<\/p>\n To use an analogy, viruses infusing new information into our genetic code is akin to a software update. From this perspective,\u00a0diseases caused by exogenous viruses are the physical manifestation of the carrier’s struggles to adapt to this “update”<\/strong>. In rare cases death ensues – the computer is too old, is not ready for the change, or is unable to absorb the update. But as the Chinese saying goes, “a falling tree makes more noise than a growing forest.”\u00a0In most cases, the update is<\/strong>\u00a0successful<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0and totally asymptomatic:<\/strong><\/p>\n “We explored non-human sequence data from whole-genome sequencing of blood from 8,240 individuals,\u00a0none of whom were ascertained for any infectious disease<\/strong>. […]\u00a0we mapped sequences to 94 different viruses, including sequences from 19 human DNA viruses, proviruses and RNA viruses (herpesviruses, anelloviruses, papillomaviruses, three polyomaviruses, adenovirus, HIV, HTLV, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, parvovirus B19, and influenza virus) in 42% of the study participants.<\/strong>\u00a0“<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Usually, the exovirus is deactivated and integrated in our DNA painlessly; it has become an endogenous virus. The new viral information is stored in our ‘hard drive’ (our genome). This new information – sequences of endogenous virus integrated in our DNA – provides us with augmented complexity and functionality.<\/p>\n The above shows the prevalence of viruses in our genetic code and the vital role they play. This perspective provides a different spin to the on-going debate about whether viruses are life forms or not. Actually, viruses seem more fundamental than even life itself; they are the information carriers (genetic codes) from which biological life stems.\u00a0Viruses are more than life: they are the very source of life; they are the informational precursors, the initiators of life forms.<\/strong><\/p>\n The Mind-Altering Virus<\/span><\/p>\n The above shows the fundamental role viruses play in the development and evolution of life, including human life. They shaped our bodies, our organs, and our very minds. From this perspective, it’s no surprise that endogenous viruses, and\u00a0even exogenous viruses, have an influence on the host’s behavior<\/strong>.<\/p>\n There are a number of viruses known to alter the behavior of\u00a0animal<\/strong>\u00a0hosts. Rabies “hijacks<\/a>” the brain and causes the host to be aggressive. Viruses from the family\u00a0Baculoviridae<\/a><\/em>\u00a0induce in their hosts changes to both feeding behavior and environment selection. In horses, the\u00a0Bornavirus<\/a>\u00a0is known to cause stupor, hyper-excitability, fearfulness, and aggressiveness.<\/p>\n Viruses also alter behavior in\u00a0humans<\/a>:<\/p>\n ‘Profound changes in behaviour are observed following\u00a0infection of the central nervous system by some viruses.<\/strong>\u00a0Irritability, insomnia, hyperactivity and learning disability<\/strong>\u00a0are some of the behavioural disturbances that have been described in both\u00a0humans<\/strong>\u00a0and animals with central nervous system infection.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n For example, viral\u00a0encephalitis<\/a>\u00a0is commonly caused in humans by arboviruses, including West Nile, herpes viruses and enteroviruses. Symptoms include irritability, lethargy and seizures. In humans,\u00a0rabies<\/a>\u00a0causes delirium, abnormal behavior, hallucinations. Traces of the\u00a0Bornavirus<\/a>\u00a0have been found in significant numbers of depressed and schizophrenic patients.\u00a0Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis<\/a>\u00a0is caused by mutant measles viruses invading the brain. Symptoms include bizarre behavior, muscle jerks, and seizures.<\/p>\n But there is no need to search for rare exotic viruses to find behavior-altering effects, or even\u00a0positive behavior-altering effects<\/strong>. In 2010,\u00a0Chris Reiber<\/a>\u00a0found evidence that a virus as mundane as the\u00a0influenza virus alters people behavior by making them more sociable<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Since viruses are the active component of vaccines, it is no surprise that<\/strong>\u00a0changes in human social behavior have been observed in response to a common<\/strong>\u00a0vaccine<\/strong><\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n Man-Made Viruses<\/span><\/p>\n The first engineered DNA molecule was made in 1972 by\u00a0Paul Berg<\/a>. Berg combined DNA from the monkey virus\u00a0SV40<\/a>\u00a0with the\u00a0lambda virus.<\/a>\u00a0That was almost 50 years ago.<\/p>\n For decades, engineering viruses has been common practice. The active ingredient in most modern vaccines is a genetic sequence extracted from a virus (the sequence that is considered immunogenic but not pathogenic). A\u00a0paper<\/a>\u00a0from 2001 describes how genetically-modified viruses can be used to develop vaccines.<\/p>\n Along a similar line, gene therapy uses genetically-modified viruses to deliver genes that can cure genetic diseases. The first case of successful gene therapy on humans was performed by\u00a0Martin Cline<\/a>\u00a0in 1980. More recently, in\u00a02004<\/a>, a genetically-modified virus was designed to exploit the selfish behavior of cancerous cells and treat cancer.<\/p>\n Man-made viruses are also used in mammals (myxomatosis protection<\/a>\u00a0for rabbits), plants (disease resistance<\/a>\u00a0in orange trees), and insects by designing\u00a0insect-borne viruses<\/a>\u00a0that have the ability to modify the genes of crops in already-planted fields. This virus basically transforms non-GMO crops into GMO crops after they have been planted.<\/p>\n The above shows that engineering viruses is now commonplace and that natural viruses can alter behavior. But\u00a0viruses can be man-made AND alter behavior<\/strong>. This is the subject of a\u00a0paper<\/a>\u00a0published in 2011 by a Rostock laboratory:<\/p>\n “Gene therapy approaches have an effect in animal models of several psychiatric disorders including drug addiction, affective disorders, psychoses and dementia<\/strong>, modifying behavioural parameters via interventions on the molecular and cellular level. […] stereotactic intracerebral\u00a0injection of genetically modified viruses are used<\/strong>.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n The hypothesis according to which SARS-CoV-2 “escaped” from a lab seemed outlandish at first but gained traction over time because of some puzzling evidence. To the point that a number of mainstream media [1<\/a>], [2<\/a>], [3<\/a>] reports confirmed that US intelligence was investigating the possibility that the virus came from a laboratory.<\/p>\n Luc Montagnier is a retired French scientist. He received the 2008 Nobel Prize in medicine for his discovery of the HIV virus. Being a retired Nobel prize winner makes him less sensitive to various pressures (grant cancellation, bad press, and peer pressure). Unlike most of his colleagues, he can, and does, say what he thinks.<\/p>\n Montagnier described SARS-CoV-2 as a man-made “Frankenstein virus<\/a>” combining various types of viruses. According to Montagnier, the Franken-virus was made from a natural coronavirus, coming from a bat, but to this model was added sequences very similar to HIV-1 and the parasite\u00a0Plasmodium falciparum<\/em>, which is responsible for malaria. This point might explain why hydroxychloroquin – an anti-malaria drug – is effective against SARS-CoV-2.<\/p>\n To the question: “Wasn’t the coronavirus natural?” Montagnier replied: “No, it was not natural,\u00a0it was the work of professionals, of molecular biologists, it’s a very precise work, we could call it a watchmaker’s work<\/strong>“.<\/p>\n Montagnier’s claims about engineered insertions of HIV sequences in SARS-CoV-2 were confirmed by a paper titled “Uncanny similarity of unique inserts in the 2019-nCoV spike protein to HIV-1 gp120 and Gag,<\/a>” which had to be retracted because of “too much\u00a0pressure<\/a>“.\u00a0Two<\/a>\u00a0other prominent virologists, namely Ruan Jishou of Nankai University and Li Huan from Huazhong University, came independently to the very same conclusion.<\/p>\n Judy Mikovits was a lab director at the U.S. National Cancer Institute, and was part of the team that was first to isolate the murine retrovirus XMRV. She also worked for several years at Fort Detrick, the U.S. Army’s most infamous bioweapons research lab. Mikovits is one of the few who has dared to\u00a0denounce<\/a>\u00a0the vaccine scandal, for which she subsequently lost her career, her savings and her reputation. She\u00a0publicly stated<\/a>\u00a0that, given the astounding number\u00a0(1,200)<\/a>\u00a0of mutations between the new SARS-CoV-2 and the source bat virus, the former had to be engineered:<\/p>\n Interviewer: Do you believe that this virus [SARS-CoV-2] was created in the laboratory?<\/p>\n Mikovits: […]\u00a0That cannot be naturally occurring<\/strong>. Somebody didn’t go to a market, get a bat, the virus didn’t jump directly to humans. That’s not how it works. That’s accelerated viral evolution.\u00a0If it was a natural occurrence, it would take up to 800 years to occur.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n Bruno Coutard is a researcher for IHU M\u00e9diterran\u00e9e Infection, one the largest virus research facilities in the world. On April 2020, Coutard\u00a0et al<\/em>.\u00a0published<\/a>\u00a0in\u00a0Antiviral Research<\/em>\u00a0a detailed analysis of SARS-CoV-2:<\/p>\n “In 2019, a new coronavirus (2019-nCoV) infecting humans has emerged in Wuhan, China. Its genome has been sequenced and the genomic information promptly released. Despite a high similarity with the genome sequence of SARS-CoV and SARS-like CoVs, we identified\u00a0a peculiar furin-like cleavage site in the spike protein of 2019-nCoV, lacking in the other SARS-like CoVs<\/strong>\u00a0[…] This furin-like cleavage site… may provide a\u00a0gain-of-function to the 2019-nCoV for efficient spreading in the human population<\/strong>.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n In plain English, “gain-of-function<\/a>” means “man-made”. According to Coutard, it is this man-made intervention that enabled a zoonotic (bat) virus to ‘jump’ to humans.<\/p>\n Professor of etiology at the National Taiwan University,\u00a0Fang Chi-tai,<\/a>\u00a0has stated that SARS-CoV-2 was probably man-made. There are four more amino acids in the gene sequence of SARS-CoV-2 than in other coronaviruses. According to Fang, natural mutations of viruses will only result in small, singular changes, so it is suspicious to see a naturally mutated virus suddenly take on four amino acids. Those amino acids could have been artificially added to make viral transmission easier.<\/p>\n Czech molecular biologist Dr.\u00a0So\u0148a Pekov\u00e1<\/a>\u00a0explained that SARS-CoV-2 was man-made because of its deeply modified “control room”:<\/p>\n “[…] massive gene changes and transcripts, insertions, deletions, and other complex changes in the magnitude of the RNA SARS-CoV-2 control room,\u00a0if nature had created it chaotically and randomly, the virus would simply perish<\/strong>\u00a0because it could not have functioned in an orderly manner.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Norwegian scientist\u00a0Birger Sorensen<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Australian scientists<\/a>\u00a0in Adelaide and Melbourne came independently to the same conclusion: SARS-CoV-2 is man-made because a virus never before seen in humans before couldn’t be so perfectly adapted to humans:<\/p>\n “This is a new virus that has never been in humans before, but it has an\u00a0extraordinarily high binding to human receptors<\/strong>, which is very surprising.\u00a0It is almost perfectly human adapted, it couldn’t do any better.”<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n Artificial additions of HIV and malaria sequences, an engineered furin-like cleavage, amino acids added by design, a modified control room, extraordinary adaptation to humans. All these pieces of evidence point to a man-made virus. And, keep in mind that these are only the proofs brought forth by the few scientists who dared to speak up.<\/p>\n Engineered for What Purpose?<\/span><\/p>\n If SARS-CoV-2 was man-made the next question is: “what features were given to the engineered SARS-CoV-2 compared to its natural ancestors?”<\/p>\n To answer this question, let’s compare SARS-CoV-2 to its natural relatives, SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) and MERS (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome), which are two\u00a0of only a handful of other coronaviruses<\/a>\u00a0that can infect humans. We will also include in this comparison the seasonal flu (influenza virus).<\/p>\n Transmissibility:<\/em><\/strong> Pathogenicity:<\/strong><\/em> Mortality:<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n

\nThe actual number is about 45%<\/strong>\u00a0as estimated today. In some genes such as the\u00a0Protein Kinase Inhibitor B<\/em>\u00a0(PKIB<\/em>) gene we determined about\u00a070% retrovirus-related sequences.<\/strong>\u00a0Is there a limit? Could it have been 100%?<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\nTransmission rate (R0) measures the average number of persons contaminated by a single carrier. R0 for SARS-CoV-2, is\u00a0between 3 and 5<\/a>. That’s several times higher than SARS with a R0 equal to\u00a01.8<\/a>\u00a0and MERS whose R0 is lower than\u00a01<\/a>. Similarly, the seasonal flu is moderately contagious; its R0 is about\u00a01.3<\/a><\/p>\n
\nMass testing in Iceland revealed that\u00a050%<\/a>\u00a0of the SARS-CoV-2 carriers are asymptomatic. This figure is consistent with the\u00a0Diamond Princess<\/em>\u00a0case where\u00a075%<\/a>\u00a0of the carriers were asymptomatic. SARS and MERS are markedly more pathogenic with only\u00a07-13%<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a025.4%<\/a>\u00a0of healthy carriers respectively. The seasonal flu exhibits a similarly high pathogenicity with an asymptomatic fraction of between\u00a04 and 28%<\/a>.<\/p>\n
