“Virologists have never extracted an entire genome from an alleged disease-causing virus and then sequenced it end to end. Nowadays, computer programs are used to artificially assemble thousands of selected DNA or RNA fragments found in patients into a complete ‘viral’ genome, by matching overlapping regions and adding any missing sequences. This is known as ‘in silico’ alignment (meaning that it’s done in a computer).
Scientists typically argue for years about which pieces of genetic code belong to a particular ‘virus’; for the measles virus, this took decades. But it only took a few mouse clicks in the case of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that supposedly causes Covid-19 (a ‘new’ disease with no new symptoms). This involved searching for genetic sequences similar to those classified as belonging to the first SARS coronavirus from 2003 (which has also never been properly isolated) and then instructing a computer to piece them together.”
I took a look at the piece you linked above. The references are less than stellar, so I'm not sure I would put a lot of faith in those. If you want to read a controversial book by a real scientist, read Inventing the AIDS virus by Peter Duesberg. The book is a lesson in real virology by one of the world's experts whose opinions got him dissed by the mainstream.
I read it, on your rec, and than read Dissolving Illusions thats on your night stand. Shouldn't be other way around, that they have to PROVE that viruses exist and cause disease. And yet similar to what Duisberg said in his book they never proved HIV causes AIDS, they never proved using Kochs postulaates that viruses cause any disease. But that doesnt stop world killing people with "medicine" to cure/prevent HIV to develop AIDS and people to get vaccinated etc..
Here is Nick Hudson, who both of us respect, recent post saying he would NOT get vaccine on a market.
Yes agree they are less than stellar, but we know how hard is to be on the other side of the narrative. Duisberg lost everything, didnt get a cent anymore from gov agencies for research. JJ also was out, and I think is working for RF Kennedy now. Something that is over 200 years in collective memory is NOT gonna change that soon. Too many vested interests.
Duesberg never said viruses don't exist. He was/is(?) the world's foremost authority on retroviruses, which is what the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is. He never, ever said viruses don't exist; he said he didn't believe the HIV caused AIDS. He thought HIV was simply a harmless traveler virus.
I agree with Nick Hudson. But I don't think that means he doesn't believe viruses exist. Ask him on Twitter.
Saying viruses don't exist is tantamount to believing the earth is flat. When someone says, No, it's round, flat earthers say Prove it. I didn't think these people really existed, but my kid showed me a 'serious' book by a flat earth organization. They have answers for any argument one might have for why the earth is really round. They believe the moon landings were all staged. It's absolutely incredible some people actually believe all this. And it's how I feel about people who don't believe viruses exist. I suppose there might be a tiny fraction of a percent chance that viruses don't exist. I say that because I'm not an infectious disease specialist, so I'm not well read in that literature. But instead of spending time reading books by non-experts trying to prove viruses don't exist, I think my time would be more productively spent reading and studying nutrition and metabolism, something I do have some expertise in.
That was pretty harsh Doc. And bad analogy. I will leave it here
Maybe after rewatching JJ video you posted, where he says that spreading RNA virus (but not clones ) is very hard you change your mind a bit.
After all after decades of tons of money spent on GoF and similar experiments all over the world, how is that we we a “leak” that’s not even causing epidemic (no excess deaths). And mind you there are a lot of nuclear bombs lost or being accidentally dropped all over the world, showing humans are very prone to sloppiness.
But yes, agree one should focus on his area of competence as Buffett says.
