The coronavirus (Covid-19, or whatever else you want to call it) represents a fundamental change in the way our current society operates. For this essay, I’m ONLY talking about the virus itself. I’ll follow up in the next day or two on economic impacts of it.

But let’s start off with the virus, establish the history, where it really came from, WHY, and what to do about it… then we can get on to what happens after.

BACKGROUND:

First of all, contrary to MSM stories saying it was due to people eating Bat-soup, transferred from Sloths or whatever fictional bullshit they think people would be stupid enough to believe, the virus is NOT a naturally-occurring phenomenon. It was intentionally engineered by China. I will say that this is not speculation, not a conspiracy-theory, but a fact documented by plenty of public-domain documentation, by the people that did it.

But first, the obvious question: Why would anyone be so stupid as to build something like this? The answer is quite simple: In a secret speech given to high-level Communist Party cadres nearly two decades ago, Chinese Defense Minister Gen. Chi Haotian explained a long-range plan for ensuring a Chinese national renaissance using biological weapons. The idea was to develop and deploy bio-weapons to destroy the USA, so they could literally walk in and colonize it for themselves, leaving the contaminated, destroyed land they now live on.

I strongly suggest you read the entire article for yourself; it’s quite the eye-opener.

AND NOW…

An acquaintance who happens to have a PhD in Computational Molecular Biology told me on January 17 that the coronavirus is genetically engineered. The details of the conversation aren’t germane, but he made it clear that there is no possibility that this occurred naturally. This was confirmed February 8 by the peer-reviewed Virology Journal, Vol.16, publication date April 2020, HERE.

As the authors of the paper explain in the full text, “This furin-like cleavage site… may provide a gain-of-function to the 2019-nCoV for efficient spreading in the human population.” There is an underlying implication here that is very subtle; the ONLY possible reason for this modification is the creation of a biological warfare weapon. There are no other plausible explanations.

Next, NOBODY with an ounce of intellectual honesty can argue that the release of the virus didn’t occur Wuhan, China, at the only BSL-4 lab in the entire country. Watching the growth of this, increasingly large concentric circles around that lab, as more and more people were exposed, makes this abundantly clear. Once people started flying on local airlines, coronavirus shattered any possibility of containment, and the die was cast. We’ll get back to airliners later.

Things start to get screwy when you start asking how the Chinese created such a monster as we’re now seeing…? I mean, the Chinese are damned good at stealing technology and ideas, and running with them. They’re not particularly smart thinkers and inventors, as much as thieves. So how did they develop something so new and radical as this on their own???

The answer is, they didn’t. This virus was created at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and they published the highlights of their creation in November 2015. When you look at the list of “scholars” associated with this Frankenstein of a virus, you’ll see the name Zheng-Li Shi, who just happens to represent the Key Laboratory of Special Pathogens and Biosafety, Wuhan Institute of Virology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Wuhan, China. Of course, there were other scientists, most representing UNC, but there were also representatives from Bellinzona Institute of Microbiology, Zurich, Switzerland and Harvard Medical School.

Keep your eye on Dr. Shi, though… From this Wikipedia article,

“From 2014, Shi Zhengli was the recipient of a number of US Government grants as well as grants from the National Basic Research program of China, the Chinese Academy of Science, the National Natural Science Foundation of China, and from the Strategic Priority Research Program of Chinese Academy of Sciences, to assist in funding research into coronaviruses.”

Dr. Shi Zhengli

So this lady was paid well by the US government AND the Chinese government to fund “research into coronaviruses.”

What did we (and China) get for our money spent? In the original paper published in 2015, they stated

“Using the SARS-CoV reverse genetics system2, we generated and characterized a chimeric virus expressing the spike of bat coronavirus SHC014 in a mouse-adapted SARS-CoV backbone. The results indicate that group 2b viruses encoding the SHC014 spike in a wild-type backbone can efficiently use multiple orthologs of the SARS receptor human angiotensin converting enzyme II (ACE2), replicate efficiently in primary human airway cells and achieve in vitro titers equivalent to epidemic strains of SARS-CoV. Additionally, in vivo experiments demonstrate replication of the chimeric virus in mouse lung with notable pathogenesis. Evaluation of available SARS-based immune-therapeutic and prophylactic modalities revealed poor efficacy; both monoclonal antibody and vaccine approaches failed to neutralize and protect from infection with CoVs using the novel spike protein.”

Did you get that???

In effect, they took the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) virus carried by bats, that was making the rounds back in 2003, and reverse-engineered the genetic coding inside the virus itself. They THEN inserted additional proteins to enhance the efficiency of the virus inside human lungs (making it more deadly), while at the same time making it extremely difficult to vaccinate against, because the new virus has multiple proteins with which to attack. (Please note the receptor designation ACE2, as you’ll see more of this again.)

Interestingly, in a footnote it says, “Cells were originally obtained from Fort Detrick.”

As they say in the 2015 paper, they created a “hybrid virus” which is far more deadly, and can’t be vaccinated against. Their new DNA genetically engineered virus constitutes a gain in pathogenesis. That’s a gain of function right there; they admit it. Pathogenesis means lethality and infectiousness. Dr. Shi learns how to perform “gain of function” operations within viruses, and then she returns to her post in Wuhan, China.

Fast-forward to November, 2019… a breach of containment occurs at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, and Patient Zero is detected somewhere between December 1 and December 12, 2019. We don’t know, at this time, the circumstances around Patient-0, if he/she is alive or dead, and how containment was breached. I suspect that the true nature of the containment breach will never be known. Whether buried or burned in one of the dozens of incinerators that have been running in Wuhan 24×7 for the last few months, dead from the virus or from a sudden and acute case of lead poisoning, such knowledge which can embarrass a totalitarian government makes one more valuable dead than alive.

With the outbreak of the new coronavirus (now deemed 2019-nCoV) , Dr. Shi is one of the authors that published s THIS PAPER in January 23, 2020, saying that , stating that it is “of probable bat origin,” and “Pairwise protein sequence analysis of seven conserved non-structural proteins domains show that this virus belongs to the species of SARSr-CoV… the same cell entry receptor—angiotensin converting enzyme II (ACE2)—as SARS-CoV.”

Gee, you think?

Put simply, this is an enhanced version “hybrid virus” that they developed at UNC, with Ft. Detrick support, back in 2015. Dr. Shi knows exactly what it is, because she helped build it!

As a practical matter, what does the “gain of function” mean? Basically, that it’s built to be far more virulent and deadly, than anything seen before. This ain’t your daddy’s flu, let me tell you. And now we know that the good doctor and her team inserted HIV and MERS proteins into the coronavirus, to give it just a touch more “kick.”

How bad is it?

From the Lancet study published January 24, 2020, 83% of those exposed had respiratory distress, and of the sick, mortality was 15%, with 12% surviving but suffering cardiac injury. So that works out to about 12% of the population.

The average number of people infected by a sick person is incredibly high, some studies estimating it as has as 6.7, the factor known as R0, spoken as “R-naught.” So it’s highly communicable.

As a cherry on top, an infected person can be asymptomatic and yet contagious for up to 27 days. That is, you can be infected, yet not even know it… you spend a month going about your life, having a meal with your family at the local restaurant, go the movies, get on a plane for a meeting on the other side of the country (with a layover or two each way), you are at a hotel on your trip, a few more restaurants, a taxi-ride, tipping the doorman at the hotel… meeting with clients (or managers), secretaries, analysts, or literally bumping into someone walking down the sidewalk in the city you’re visiting… ALL of them exposed to what your carrying, and you have no idea you’re even sick. This goes on for a month, before you start to feel a sore throat, achy, short of breath, etc.

It’s already well-documented that it doesn’t have to be by physical contact, or even sneezes. Think of when you walk by someone who’s a heavy smoker, or has bad breath. You never touch them, but molecules from them have directly entered into your nasal passages, enough for you to detect the smell. You’ve inhaled organic material from them.

With coronavirus, you can get it the same way… except there’s no smell, and you’re oblivious to what’s just happened.

When I first became aware of this virus in the middle of January, and soon after my colleague informed me of the artificial nature of some aspects of the virus, I was alerted to the ramifications. With the Lancet study detailing the mortality rate of 15%, plus the long life (of up to 14 days asymptomatic) and an R-0 at the time being quoted as ~2.5, it didn’t take long to add up that this is NOT going to be stopped, anywhere. It’ll continue on until everyone is exposed, and the ones left alive will pick up the pieces when it finally burns itself out.

Within a month of that report coming out, mid-February, the Lancet changed their tune, discussing in articles how to “tamp down fears” of the coronavirus. At the same time it became apparent that China was manipulating the numbers of infections and deaths. Unsurprisingly, the truth is now coming out via whistleblowers inside China who detail how the “recovery” from the coronavirus is all fake and trickery.

It’s bad enough that all the crematoria in Wuhan province are running at capacity, and mobile units have been brought in, all to help destroy the bodies of the dead. The mobile units have the capability to burn 1200 bodies per day. Various reports are coming out, videos of people who watched friends and family members literally wrapped in several layers of plastic bags, stuck in a box, and sent off for incineration, while they were still alive. People who die in their homes from coronavirus are not counted among the dead, nor are those who commit suicide by jumping out of their high-rise apartments in a final act of desperation.

It’s not hard to find these videos, if you do some basic searching.

Now, in all of these dark clouds, there is a bit of silver lining so far. First of all, the fatality rates in non-Asian countries has actually been substantially lower than in China. From this paper, it has been determined that those ACE2 receptors that the coronavirus attach to, are far more prevalent in Asian people than in whites or blacks- about 5x more. This might account for the mortality rate for Asians being approximately 5x higher than non-Asians. An outstanding analysis of this has been done in this Zerohedge.com summary. Bottom line, if your heritage doesn’t include China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Vietnam or the Korean peninsula, your chances of getting through this virus unscathed are pretty strong. So, in an ironic twist fit only for a B-movie, the Frankenstein virus they’ve created may well destroy them instead of their Western enemies.

I find it fitting.

An option to help yourself with the virus:

Another aspect of this type of viral transmission is that there are certain people who just don’t seem to be affected by viruses of this type. THIS ARTICLE explain that “[t]he only people that can be infected by the 2019-n Coronavirus have less than 98.7 µg/L of Selenium in plasma or serum. Those who have enough Selenium are immune to this and all other enveloped viruses. Selenium can be obtained from Brazil nuts, Selenium pills or Astragalus tea.”

I would strongly suggest you go read this for yourself (and all the linked documentation), and go further to perform a Google search for “coronavirus” and “selenium.” You’ll be amazed at the amount of documentation that comes up… all confirming the original point. As always, YMMV, but we have to look at practical solutions to get through this first element of the virus.

Now, the rate of spread of the infection, varies from country to country, due to a variety of geographical and societal factors, as well as the proliferation of air-travel (the PERFECT means to contaminate as many people as possible in a short period of time). In short, the number of infected doubles every four days, almost perfectly. At the start the projected growth rate is always a little iffy, but by the time you get to a few hundred or a few thousand infected, you can nail it down pretty well. And we’re at four days, ignoring China’s bogus numbers.

Starting with February 13, outside China there were 528 people confirmed infected. So by doubling every four days, we would expect to see 16,896. The real-time CDC map HERE reported 14,900 confirmed cases for the same date. So our growth rate of doubling every four days is pretty close. Going at this same rate- despite the best efforts of various governments, policies, isolation/quarantines, etc., this means we’re going to hit maximum exposure, i.e, EVERYBODY, on May 17 or May 18, 2020.

Put graphically, the race-car that this geometric growth pattern represents, hits the proverbial wall in TWO MONTHS.

You need to prepare food supplies for a three-month “indoor stay-cation,” and what may follow.

I get into that HERE.

For now…? You’ve got the data. Make some command decisions on who to save and HOW. Move with a purpose.

Tick Tock.
