Could four key public health officials have been intimately involved in
the creation of the pandemic, as well as the prolongation and improper
treatments used during the pandemic?
In early 2020, there was a lot of chatter about where the virus, later named SARS-CoV-2, actually came from.
In an excellent, detailed article
written earlier this month for the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists,
former New York Times science writer Nicholas Wade described how two
short pieces published in March 2020 — one in The Lancet and one in Nature Medicine — determined how this chatter would be channeled to the public.
These two extraordinarily influential pieces, each published under
the heading “correspondence,” were parroted by mainstream media for a
year. Both were plainly intended to shut down any discussion of the
possibility that the virus
originated in a lab.zListen here as Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and I discuss these issues:
Fauci's Smoking Gun with Dr. Meryl Nass
As I read both the Lancet and Nature papers in March 2020, it became
immediately apparent each was designed as a propaganda tool. Neither was
based on science.
I was so intrigued by these articles, I searched the web to better
understand them. That’s when I discovered Francis Collins, director of
the National Institutes of Health (NIH), who had
blogged on March 26, 2020, about the Nature article, suggesting the article should put an end to conspiracy theories about lab origin.
Collins wrote:
“Either way, this study leaves little
room to refute a natural origin for COVID-19. And that’s a good thing
because it helps us keep focused on what really matters: observing good hygiene, practicing social distancing, and supporting the efforts of all the dedicated health-care professionals and researchers who are working so hard to address this major public health challenge.”
I wondered why five otherwise credible scientists would sign their
names to the Nature article — and why Collins would endorse the
article’s conclusion — when the arguments made in the paper were
nonsensical, in my opinion.
I eventually concluded the authors had been put up to writing the paper by a “hidden hand.”
How had I reached that conclusion, even before Dr. Anthony Fauci’s emails were uncovered Wednesday?
Months ago, in another email drop obtained by
U.S. Right to Know, we
learned Peter Daszak, CEO of the nonprofit
EcoHealth Alliance, was the primary but hidden author of the Lancet article.
Daszak was also the primary beneficiary of the article’s conclusion —
that the virus evolved in nature — as his organization had been used as
the pass-through to send money from the National Institute of Allergy
& Infectious Diseases (NIAID), headed by Fauci, to the Wuhan
Institute of Virology, in Wuhan, China. (Some might consider this method
of giving out grants as a fancy way of money laundering.)
Daszak, like Fauci, earned more than $400,000/year. He was also a member of the World Health Organization’s (WHO) COVID origins
investigative team, and had been selected as the head of the Lancet COVID origins investigative team, which appears now to be dead in the water.
The WHO and the Lancet thus seem to be co-conspirators, choosing the
fox (Daszak ) to guard the henhouse (the theory that COVID evolved in
nature).
The release Wednesday of Fauci’s emails, obtained by BuzzFeed News
through the Freedom of Information Act, help to further clear up some
of the mystery behind why five well-known scientists co-authored drivel —
which the venerable Nature journal published, and which was then used
as the foundation to support the natural origin theory.
One of the
emails strongly indicates Andersen,
lead author of the Nature paper, knew he was participating in a con
job. In a Feb. 1, 2020, email to fauci, Andersen expressed his own
concerns about some of the “unusual features of the virus.” Andersen
appears to be worried these features suggest laboratory tampering.
But Andersen then reassures Fauci these “unusual features of the
virus make up a really small part of the genome (<0.1%) so one has to
look really closely at all the sequences to see that some of the
features (potentially) look engineered.”
In another email to Fauci,
Andersen thanks three incredibly important people — Fauci, Collins and
Sir Jeremy Farrar — for their “advice and leadership” regarding the
paper. All three are M.D. researchers who dole out more money for
medical research than anyone else in the world, with the exception
perhaps of Bill Gates.
Fauci runs the NIAID, Collins is the NIH director (nominally Fauci’s boss) and Farrar is director of the Wellcome Trust. Farrar also signed the Lancet letter. And he is chair of the WHO’s R&D Blueprint Scientific Advisory Group, which put him in the driver’s seat of the WHO’s Solidarity trial, in which 1,000 unwitting subjects were overdosed with hydroxychloroquine in order to sink the use of that drug for COVID.
Farrar had worked in Vietnam, where there was lots of malaria, and he had also been involved with SARS-1 there. He additionally was central in setting up the UK Recovery trial, where 1,600 subjects were overdosed with hydroxychloroquine.
Even if Farrar didn’t have some idea of the proper dose of
chloroquine drugs from his experience in Vietnam, he, Fauci and Collins
would have learned about such overdoses after Brazil told the world
about how they mistakenly overdosed patients in a trial of chloroquine
for COVID. The revelation was made in an article
published in the JAMA in mid-April 2020. Thirty-nine percent of the
subjects in Brazil who were given high doses of chloroquine died,
average age 50.
Yet the Solidarity and Recovery hydroxychloroquine trials continued
into June, stopping only after their extreme doses were exposed.
Fauci made sure to control the treatment
guidelines for COVID that came out of the NIAID, advising against both
chloroquine drugs and ivermectin. Fauci’s NIAID also
cancelled
the first large-scale trial of hydroxychloroquine treatment in early
disease, after only 20 of the expected 2,000 subjects were enrolled.
What does all this mean?
- There was a conspiracy between the five authors of the Nature paper
and the heads of the NIH, NIAID and Wellcome Trust to cover up the lab
origin of COVID.
- There was a conspiracy involving Daszak , Fauci and others to push the natural origin theory. (See other emails in the recent drop.)
- There was a conspiracy involving Daszak to write the Lancet letter
and hide its provenance, to push the natural origin theory and paint any
other ideas as conspiracy theory. Collin’s blog post is another piece
of this story.
- Farrar was intimately involved in both large hydroxychloroquine overdose trials, in which about 500 subjects total died.
- Farrar, Fauci and Collins withheld research funds that could have
supported quality trials of the use of chloroquine drugs and ivermectin
and other repurposed drugs that might have turned around the pandemic.
- Are the four individuals named here — Fauci, Daszak, Collins and
Farrar — intimately involved in the creation of the pandemic, as well
as the prolongation and improper treatments used during the pandemic?
For more background, read my two earlier posts on this subject from March and April 2020. I don’t want to take credit improperly for these discoveries — Dan Sirotkin noticed and wrote about the Nature article before I did, and wrote lucidly about it. I did not see his writing until much later.
