country’s national mobilization plan to contain the novel coronavirus has been
fully embraced by the World Health Organization’s experts.
In an interview with IRINN TV channel on Thursday, Namaki said Iran has briefed 12 senior experts of the WHO on the national mobilization plan for addressing the coronavirus.
The WHO experts have strongly welcomed the initiative and announced that such a strategy could be registered as a successful model in Iran, he added.
The minister said if the free movement of suspicious cases of coronavirus in the society is prevented and the necessary training is provided, the chain of the contagious disease will be cut off.
Iran’s strategy in addressing COVID-19 involves an increase in the rapidity of detection of the infected cases, Namaki stated, adding that the number of nationwide laboratories has been raised from 3 to 50 and will reach 70 by the next week to that end. https://en.abna24.com/news//iran’s-strategy-against-coronavirus-welcomed-by-who-health-minister_1016938.html

Harry reportedly slammed Trump for his environmental policies, stating, "I think the mere fact that Donald Trump is pushing the coal industry is so big in America, he has blood on his hands."

➜⇢ ➽ ➤ Iran’s Defense Ministry unveils
home-made advanced thermal camera amid coronavirus outbreak Iran’s Defense Ministry has unveiled an
advanced home-made thermal camera which can be useful to detect those having
fever as a symptom of being infected with the new coronavirus.
Deputy Defense Minister Brigadier General Shahrokh Shahram said on Wednesday in the unveiling ceremony that experts of the body have gained the know-how to domestically produce these advanced thermal cameras.
He said that the cameras have been completely designed by domestic technology and software through mobilizing all scientific capacities, adding that the production line has opened.
The technology used in the camera enables it to determine the body temperature instantly and it can also screen several individuals at the same time, said Shahram, noting that this can be useful as an initial screening for coronavirus in public places.
He said that the cameras have been tested successfully in several airports and other sensitive centers and the mass production will soon start.
Shahram said that only a few countries such as the US, Japan, and China enjoy this technology.
Earlier the Defense Ministry had announced mass production of coronavirus test kits, face masks, disinfectants, ambulances, and hospital beds to help the country battle the outbreak.
According to the latest announcement on Wednesday, the COVID-19 has infected 9,000 people across the country, claiming 354 lives.
First detected in Wuhan city in central China in December, the virus has spread to more than 110 countries. More than 4,600 people have died of COVID-19 across the world, and more than 120,000 people have also been infected. About 67,000 people have also recovered from the illness, globally. https://en.abna24.com/news//iran’s-defense-ministry-unveils-home-made-advanced-thermal-camera-amid-coronavirus-outbreak_1016652.html

➤ Sickening
US Sanctions on Iran Amid Global Coronavirus Epidemic
At a time of global crisis
as seen with the coronavirus epidemic, it is heartening to witness compassion
and solidarity that unites all human beings.
ussia,
which has so far been relatively unscathed from the disease, is reportedly
sending 50,000 test kits to Iran for detecting the virus. The Islamic Republic
has recorded over 300 deaths so far and there are fears
of many more fatalities to come over the next few weeks as the flu-like disease
spreads to all provinces.
Meanwhile, China –
where the outbreak originated in December – is sending thousands of
ventilators, respirators and other equipment to Italy, which has become the
worst-affected country in Europe by the disease.
In stark contrast to
these international humanitarian actions, the United States continues to impose
crippling economic sanctions on Iran under its policy of “maximum pressure”.
Iran’s parliamentary
speaker Ali Larijani this week called on the rest of the world to demand the
lifting of US sanctions because they are hampering the fight against Covid-19 in Iran. https://ahtribune.com/world/north-africa-south-west-asia/iran/3955-sickening-us-sanctions-coronavirus.html

➤ White House Officials Discuss Market Collapse,
Coronavirus with Oil Lobbyists
The coronavirus, the state of the economy, and
the market topped the agenda of talks on Wednesday between lobbyists
representing the oil and gas industry and White House policy staffers, CNBC
cited American Petroleum Institute [API] spokeswoman Bethany Aronhalt as
saying.
She
added that API, known to be America's largest trade association for the oil and
gas industry, is not seeking federal aid.
Aronhalt
spoke after media reports claimed on Tuesday that US President Donald Trump was
mulling a federal assistance package in the form of low-interest loans to shore
up the shale industry.
The
White House, in turn, reportedly made it clear that they don’t want the aid to
be seen as a bailout. Washington has not commented on the matter yet.
API
chief executive Mike Sommers, for his part, stated that balancing the oil
market remains the group’s key priority.
“What
we have here is a demand shock, of course, because of coronavirus, and a supply
shock, because of the decision by Russia and the Saudis to flood the market
with oil”, he told Bloomberg on Tuesday.

Normalization, Next? Bahrain’s King
in Secret Meeting with Netanyahu
What comes next after disclosing ‘secret’
meetings between Arab leaders and ‘Israeli’ officials?
A
report stated that Bahraini King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifah had a secret meeting
with Zionist Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Hungary, in the latest
significant sign of warming ties between a number of Gulf littoral states and
the Tel Aviv apartheid regime after years of clandestine relations.
Britain-based
and Arabic-language Bahrain al-Youm news agency cited an unnamed diplomatic
source, reporting that the meeting was held in April, when the 69-year-old
Bahraini monarch paid a visit to the Hungarian capital city of Budapest under
the guise of holding talks with the country’s President Janos Ader and
strengthening bilateral relations.
The
source added that the meeting was held as a preparatory event for the so-called
Peace to Prosperity workshop, which opened in Bahrain on June 25 and ran
through the following day.
It
apparently sought to advance the economic aspects of US President Donald
Trump’s controversial proposal for so-called “peace” between the ‘Israeli’
occupation regime and the Palestinians, dubbed “the deal of the century.”
The
secret meeting was described as intimate, and took place while Netanyahu was on
holiday with his family. The holiday was cut short for a day. Netanyahu
traveled to Budapest to meet King Hamad, and then returned the same day without
any media coverage, the diplomat pointed out. https://www.english.alahednews.com.lb/50266/387

Pandemic Worse
After downplaying the threat of coronavirus for days,
President Donald Trump addressed the nation Wednesday from the Oval Office,
calling COVID-19 a
“foreign virus” and announcing an unprecedented travel ban from most of Europe
to the U.S. He also said he will expand sick leave. This comes as Senate
Republicans blocked paid sick leave legislation. Robert Pollin, distinguished
university professor of economics and co-director of the Political Economy
Research Institute at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, says the lack of
universal healthcare in the U.S. is exacerbating the coronavirus crisis due to
“the absurdity that people cannot feel confident that they are going to get
medical treatment” when they need it most. In 2018, Pollin co-authored a paper titled
“Economic Analysis of Medicare for All.”

The case of Al-Hathloul and the
other women’s rights activists on trial in Saudi Arabia is a tremendous
embarrassment for MBS, who has been putting an enormous effort into convincing
his Western allies that he is a reformer and that the Kingdom is becoming more
liberal. by Medea Benjamin and Ariel Gold
This week, Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman
(MBS), Saudi Arabia’s 34-year-old de facto ruler, was on a tear. He arrested members of his own royal
family and initiated an oil price war with
Russia that has sent the price of oil—and the world’s stock markets—plummeting.
Behind the headlines, however, another critical event will take place in Saudi
Arabia starting March 18: women’s rights activist Loujain al-Hathloul, who was
arrested almost two years ago for advocating the right to drive, is due in
court. The diabolical MBS wants the world to believe he is the Arab world’s
liberal reformer and took credit for eventually granting women the right to
drive, but he is also the one who had al-Hathloul and nine other women thrown
in prison, charging them as foreign agents and spies. The imprisonment of these
peaceful women activists exposes the brutal nature of MBS’s regime and the
duplicity of the Western democracies that continue to support him. https://www.mintpressnews.com/loujan-al-hathloul-trail-saudi-arabia-pull-back-curtain-mbs/265634/
America’s relationship with the Taliban has always
been determined by how useful they are at advancing US interests in the region
and the Trump administration’s recent efforts to make “peace” with the group
are no exception. President Trump, who is up for re-election
this year, has added another “peace” deal to his credentials, a deal that the
president, his re-election campaign and his supporters have promoted as proof
that Trump is willing and able to resist the U.S. foreign policy establishment
and its ceaseless push to keep the U.S. embroiled in “forever wars.” Yet, not unlike the much-criticized
Israel-Palestine “peace” deal that was recently released by the Trump
administration, there is more to the U.S.-Taliban “peace” deal than meets the
eye. Indeed, while the deal will reduce and perhaps eventually even end the
U.S.’ official military presence in Afghanistan, there is little indication that it will
end the bloodshed or the country’s “shadow” economy that is awash in profits
from the illegal drug trade and illegal mining.

➜⇢ ➽ ➤Who Made
Coronavirus? Was It the U.S., Israel or China Itself? Who Made Coronavirus? Was
It the U.S., Israel or China Itself? The most commonly reported
mainstream media account of the creation of the Coronavirus suggests that it
was derived from an animal borne microorganism found in a wild bat that was
consumed by an ethnic Chinese resident of Wuhan. But there appears to be some
evidence to dispute that in that adjacent provinces in China, where wild bats
are more numerous, have not experienced major outbreaks of the disease. Because
of that and other factors, there has also been considerable speculation that
the Coronavirus did not occur naturally through mutation but rather was produced in a laboratory, possibly as a biological
warfare agent. Several reports suggest that there are components of the virus
that are related to HIV that could not have occurred naturally. If it is
correct that the virus had either been developed or even produced to be
weaponized it would further suggest that its escape from the Wuhan Institute of
Virology Lab and into the animal and human population could have been
accidental. Technicians who work in such environments are aware that “leaks”
from laboratories occur

The president’s national address about the pandemic substituted nativism
for leadership, culminating in his pointless ban on European travel
US President Donald Trump addresses the nation from the Oval Office
about the widening Coronavirus crisis on March 11, 2020 in Washington, DC.
President Trump said the US will suspend all travel from Europe - except the UK
- for the next 30 days. Since December 2019, Coronavirus (COVID-19) has
infected more than 109,000 people and killed more than 3,800 people in 105
countries.
When President Trump authorized his first travel ban only weeks after
his inauguration, he was selective with its targets. The purported goal was to
mitigate foreign terrorism, but even if such an action were to work, Trump excluded the
nations that produced the 9/11 hijackers. Instead, he targeted seven
predominantly Muslim nations that had zero connections to his business
interests. Same for the subsequent expansions of the ban, one later that year
and another just last month.
Trump’s travel ban remains a nativist placebo, something to assuage
those looking to blame someone who isn’t white, Christian, or American for
their problems. It has the added benefit, for the president, of distracting
from the kind of white supremacist violence that engenders the hatred that his
politics require. A travel ban remains among Trump’s Pavlovian responses to
crisis because it angers liberals, pleases his rabid base, and accomplishes
very little beyond hurting people he couldn’t care less about. https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/political-commentary/trump-coronavirus-response-travel-ban-nationalism-966223/

➤ Fake News Starts in Washington: Perception Management
and Influence Operations Manipulate Public Opinion It is perhaps unusual to have a government that has as much
disregard for what most would consider to be the truth as does the current
group of rascals running the United States of America. To be sure, Secretary of
State Mike Pompeo is as shameless a liar as has ever been seen on any public
platform while the president himself appears to make things up as he goes
along, particularly if a certain embellishment makes him look good.
Nevertheless, it is important to recognize that lying and government have a
long history, possibly going back to when the first cave dwellers elected a
leader to guide the tribe on a mastodon hunt.
Lying is a traditional role for intelligence services. The Romans had a spy service run out of the imperial palace that provided military and political intelligence all across their vast empire. It included what might be called deception operations carried out to confuse enemies about intentions and capabilities. In more recent centuries, the British became masters of both spying and deception. Major influencing intelligence operations run against the United States can be credited with having led to American involvement in both world wars. http://ronpaulinstitute.org/archives/featured-articles/2020/march/12/fake-news-starts-in-washington-perception-management-and-influence-operations-manipulate-public-opinion/

➜⇢ ➽ ➤ US now openly admits its goal in Syria is to make it 'difficult'
for Moscow and Damascus to defeat terrorists The State
Department’s special envoy for Syria has just admitted that the US aims to
defend jihadist militants in Idlib against ‘Russian aggression,’ proving once
again that the swamp in Foggy Bottom is alive and well. Russia and the Syrian
government “are out to get a military victory in all of
Syria,” Ambassador James Jeffrey told reporters on a
conference call out of
Brussels on Tuesday.
Our goal is to make it very difficult
for them to do that by a variety of diplomatic, military, and other actions.
To illustrate these methods, Jeffrey cited the US threat
to respond “in a very savage military way” against any chemical
attacks, which he described as “a favorite tactic of the Syrian regime in
making advances.”This is factually untrue, since the alleged attacks always
happen after Syrian Army victories, as a pretext for US
intervention.
Jeffrey also noted that there are US and coalition troops in parts of Syria – officially there to fight Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS), but in actuality “guarding” the oil fields. He tellingly described their presence as “a complication” for the Syrian government.
Jeffrey and US ambassador to Turkey David Satterfield were in Brussels after Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s visit, to discuss ways the US and NATO can help Ankara protect its pet militants in their last remaining redoubt – Syria’s Idlib province.
But while Satterfield described Idlib as containing “three million-plus innocent civilians, the majority of whom are women and children,” and accused “Russian aggression” of seeking to displace them, listen to how Jeffrey chose to describe the situation, when asked by a CNN reporter if NATO was considering sending in ground troops:

Studies suggest that ‘hotspots’ for virus that causes Covid-19 are found
between the 30 to 50 degree lines of latitude north-Temperature and humidity
data might allow scientists to forecast the ‘next’ Wuha
The coronavirus pandemic that has infected more than 125,000 people around
the world is concentrated in a “corridor” across the northern hemisphere,
researchers said, as more studies focused on how temperature and humidity could
be used to predict the spread of the contagion. Despite worries that Southeast
Asia may become a coronavirus hotspot after central China (where the Covid-19
outbreak started) because of their proximity and travel connections to the
infection’s epicentre, more countries and regions like South Korea, Japan,
Iran, northern Italy and the northwestern United States may have to bear the
heaviest burden. “The establishment of community transmission has occurred in a
consistent east-and-west pattern. The new [regional] epicentres of the virus
were all roughly along the 30-50 degree [lines of latitude] north zone,”
according to a team of US and Iranian researchers. Their work, made public this
week on the Social Science Research Network (SSRN) and pending
review by peer experts, said that common temperature and humidity factors in
these locations may allow epidemiologists to anticipate where virus cases may
become focused. https://www.scmp.com/news/china/science/article/3074970/coronavirus-becomes-pandemic-scientists-ask-if-lines-map-hold

➤ Inequality in a Globalized World Makes Pandemics
and Financial Crises Inevitable
Whether you’re
invested in the stock market or not, you’ve likely noticed that it’s been on a
roller coaster lately. The White House and most of the D.C. Beltway crowd tend
to equate the performance of the stock market with that of the broader economy.
To President Trump’s extreme chagrin, $3.18 trillion in stock market
value vaporized during the last week of February. Stock markets around the
world also fell dramatically. When all was said and done, $6 trillion had been at least
temporarily erased from them. It was the worst week for the markets
since the financial crisis of 2008 and it would only get worse from there. In
the wake of that, the Federal Reserve kicked into gear. By the first week of
March, after high-level coordination among the Group of Seven (G-7) countries
and their financial elites, the Fed acted as it largely had since the financial
crisis, but with more intensity, giving the markets a brief shot in the arm. In
a move that Wall Street and the White House had clamored for, the Fed cut the level of
interest rates by half a percentage point. The markets reacted by doing exactly
the opposite of what the Fed hoped and, after having briefly soared, the Dow
then tanked nearly 1,000 points that day.
The next day, it rose 1,173 points (also partially attributed to Wall Street’s
embrace of Joe Biden’s Super Tuesday results), only to plunge again soon after.
Then, this Monday, within a few minutes of opening, the markets dropped more than 7%, triggering a halt
in trading. https://truthout.org/articles/inequality-in-a-globalized-world-makes-pandemics-and-financial-crises-inevitable/

TEHRAN
(Tasnim) – Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei
instructed the Iranian Armed Forces to bolster the fight against the new
coronavirus, known as COVID-19, saying the outbreak of the disease may be
"a biological attack". In an instruction to Chief
of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Major General Mohammad Hossein Baqeri on
Thursday night, Ayatollah Khamenei praised the services of the Armed Forces
provided for the people to counter the novel coronavirus and stressed the
need to organize the services through establishing "a health and treatment
base".
"The division
of duties and missions of the organizations and departments of the Armed Forces
would be one of the tasks of this base," Ayatollah Khamenei stated.
"It (the health
base) should work in full coordination with the administration and the Ministry
of Health," the Leader added.
"Given that
there is evidence that raises the possibility of this event being a biological
attack, this measure can also be an exercise in biological defense and increase
national power and might,” the Leader said in the instruction.
The remarks came as
the Health Ministry’s spokesman announced on Thursday that the number of
coronavirus patients in Iran exceeded 10,000.
Speaking at a daily

➤ COVID-19: Further
Evidence that the Virus Originated in the US
It would be useful to read this prior
article for background: China’s
Coronavirus: A Shocking Update. Did The Virus Originate in the US?
By Larry Romanoff, March 04, 2020 ***As readers will recall from the earlier article (above), Japanese
and Taiwanese epidemiologists and pharmacologists have determined that the new
coronavirus almost certainly originated in the US since that country is the
only one known to have all five types – from which all others must have
descended. Wuhan in China has only one of those types, rendering it in analogy
as a kind of “branch” which cannot exist by itself but must have grown from a
“tree”.
The Taiwanese physician noted that in
August of 2019 the US had a flurry of lung pneumonias or similar, which the
Americans blamed on ‘vaping’ from e-cigarettes, but which, according to the
scientist, the symptoms and conditions could not be explained by e-cigarettes.
He said he wrote to the US officials telling them he suspected those
deaths were likely due to the coronavirus. He claims his warnings were ignored.
Immediately prior to that, the CDC
totally shut down the US Military’s main bio-lab at Fort Detrick, Maryland, due
to an absence of safeguards against pathogen leakages, issuing a complete
“cease and desist” order to the military. It was immediately after this
event that the ‘e-cigarette’ epidemic arose. https://www.globalresearch.ca/covid-19-further-evidence-virus-originated-us/5706078?fbclid=IwAR2MWPX7RldlEIkNarsnYd9MClOUIQJqbOG5jMfBpjJaC-1t0x1pv9ip200

President Xi Jinping, clad in a facemask, went to Wuhan this week— the city
where the virus, known as SARS-nCoV-2, is thought to have had its zoonotic
genesis. Xi’s visit was seen as a victory lap: a moment for him, as
commander-in-chief, to indicate to the Chinese people that the outbreak had
been brought under control. It also coincided largely with the moment that the
rest of the world — especially Europe and the United States — began to
recognize the gravity of the COVID-19 situation. On Wednesday, the World Health
Organization moved to officially dub COVID-19 a pandemic. In the weeks preceding Xi’s moment in
Wuhan, official Chinese propaganda channels had started to raise the notion
that the disease may not have originated within China. On February 27, Zhong

➤ "Breaking/Exclusive: US
Brought COVID19 to China with Fake Army Team for Military Games, Evidence
Mounting By VT
Editors - March 13, 2020
In October 2019, the US brought 172 (really 369) military athletes to
Wuhan for the World Military Games. Despite having the largest military in the
world, ten fold, the US came in 35th behind nations like Iran, Finland and
Slovenia. No video or photos exist of the US team, no records were kept, a huge
team but a pitiful performance for the best military in the world.
The US team did so badly that they were called “Soy Sauce Soldiers” by
the Chinese. In fact, many never participated in any event and stayed near the
Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market, where the disease is said to have originated
only days after the US left the area.
The US team went home on October 28, 2019 and within 2 weeks, the first
human contact cases of COVID 19 were seen in Wuhan. The Chinese have not been
able to find “patient zero” and believe he was a member of the US team.
They also have sources that say the US had misrepresented influenza that
Trump claims has killed thousands, an influenza carried to China by the US
team, an influenza that was really COVID 19, a disease developed in a military
bio-warfare facility in the state of Washington, now “ground zero” in the US
for COVID 19.
The Chinese claim, something censored in the US, that the inattentive
attitude and disproportionately below average results of American athletes in
the game indicate they might have been in for other purposes and they might
actually be bio-warfare operatives, and that their place of residence during
their stay in Wuhan was also close to the Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market,
where the first known cluster of cases occurred.[28][29]
RT/Moscow: The US army might have brought the novel coronavirus disease
(COVID-19) to China’s Wuhan, the city where the virus was first detected in the
country, Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesman Zhao Lijian said on Thursday.
“When did patient zero begin in US? How many people are infected? What
are the names of the hospitals? It might be US army who brought the epidemic to
Wuhan. Be transparent! Make public your data! US owe us an explanation!” Zhao
tweeted.
Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Lijian Zhao has demanded US
authorities reveal what they’re hiding about the origins of Covid-19, going as
far as to suggest the coronavirus may have been brought to China by the US military.
Pointing to a video of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) director Robert Redfield apparently admitting the US had several deaths from Covid-19 before they were able to test for it, Zhao called on the American watchdog to come clean in a tweet posted on Thursday.

March 13, 2020. Jenna Luché-Thayer
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FRIENDS,
The following compelling
information was shared to me by a medical professional. It indicates that
COVID-19 is a man made virus. If so, this information is hopeful. Why? Because
the scientists who created this virus understand it and their knowledge of the
virus can be used to defend us from this pandemic. I thank the dedicated health
professional who did this research and shared it with me.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The first order of battling this
virus pandemic is to understand the origin of Covid-19. In its birth, many
answers about its behavior can be found. The BIG problem is that the origins
of this current virus very likely raise highly embarrassing disclosures for the
US and China, which is why I suspect it is being unreported in the media and by
our government officials.
We in medicine were always
fearful the naturally evolved H5N1 bird flu would be THE pandemic threatening
human existence one day due to its alarming mortality rate even among healthy
people. All the H5N1 needed was to evolve a highly efficient protein spike
on its surface that rapidly attaches to human cells so it could be efficiently
spread from human to human.
Not coincidentally, this spike
would look very much like the one that UNC
researchers (Baric et al) attached to the horseshoe bat Corona virus in their
lab as described in their 2015 article in the journal Nature (see
below). If this was to occur in the H5N1 virus, we would have a highly
contagious form of H5N1 virus with a 60% mortality rate that would decimate the
human species.
Though there may have been
legitimate immunology research reasons for why Ralph Baric’s lab created a
novel, highly infectious Corona/SARS hybrid virus for research purposes as
published in their 2015 Nature Medicine article, many well respected worldwide
research institution heads were quite unsettled by it. (See the commentary
written about the 2015 Nature article below).
Subsequently, it seems reasonable to presume that
University of North Carolina's (UNC) “method of hybrid virus creation”
intellectual property was copied by one of Baric’s Chinese co-authors,
researcher Shi Zhengli. Shi Zhengli was referred to in the 2015
Nature article as a leader at the “Key Laboratory of Special Pathogens and
Biosafety at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, Chinese Academy of Sciences,
Wuhan, China”. That lab is one of the world’s dozen or so Bio-level 4 research
facilities that are approved to handle the world’s most deadly of pathogens.
Unfortunately, the Wuhan
Bio-level 4 lab has had a dismal safety record even before this recent COVID
event, having suffered two previous documented escapes of the SARS virus from
their lab into the local community. Fortunately the SARS virus that escaped was
not a particular good contagion for human to human transmission.
It seems highly logical to assume that
Ms. Shi Zhengli’s team likely inserted the same or an extremely
similar infectious spike from the lethal SARS virus into the Corona bat virus
just as UNC had designed, but without appropriate lab protections or common
sense that UNC demonstrated.
Interestingly, the identification
of this previously described unnatural infectious spike on the COVID-19 virus
samples obtained from early infected humans was confirmed by an Indian biotech
lab shortly after the recent outbreak. They stated they performed their
analysis through reverse engineering of the COVID-19 DNA. The Indian lab’s
e-published findings were roundly condemned and dismissed only by the
US and China; and the Indian laboratory was ultimately “forced” to take their
research paper off the internet!
Subsequently, the same
Chinese doctor (Shi Zhengli aka Zhengli-Li Shi) published in Nature once again in January of
this year about
a “novel” and “never been seen before in humans” virus emerging in the
population of Wuhan. Her 2020 Nature article describes a corona virus with
a SARS spike on its viral coat, making it infectious to humans.
There is a high likelihood that
COVID-19 is a bioengineered “escaped” virus. Who better knows this virus’s
behavior than the scientists involved in their development (Baric and Zhengli)?
We need transparency now!
To continue to deny the likely
possibility that COVID-19 is man-made seems silly when armed with knowledge
accessible in the science literature, and by paying attention to the reported
details of the outbreak! In particular:
- The initially infected Wuhan
area patients had absolutely no associations with the “wet” animal
market.
- Reportedly, the Chinese do not
eat this type of bat or sell them at the market.
- Additionally, the bat species
that carries the non-human COVID version of bat corona virus was in hibernation
at the epidemic outbreak.
- Lastly, the Chinese military
took over the Wuhan Bio-level 4 lab at the beginning of the outbreak.
What do we know so far?
- This unexpected pandemic is
caused by a bat virus that has a SARS virus spike attached, a spike which
specifically binds to the human ACE-2 receptor, a cellular receptor prevalent
in human lung tissues, not in bats.
- This is the same spike placed
on Baric’s and Zhingli’s creations to greatly enhance human cell infectivity
and thus contagiousness..."

In 2015 scientists were alarmed
about the ramifications of the research described by Baric in the 2015
publication in Nature Medicine journal as published below:
➜⇢ ➽ ➤ "Lab-Made Coronavirus Triggers
Debate
The creation of a chimeric SARS-like virus has
scientists discussing the risks of gain-of-function research. By Jef Akst Nov 16, 2015
Ralph Baric, an infectious-disease researcher at
the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, last week (November 9)
published a study on his team’s efforts to engineer a virus with the surface
protein of the SHC014 coronavirus, found in horseshoe bats in China, and the
backbone of one that causes human-like severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)
in mice. The hybrid virus could infect human airway cells and caused disease in
mice, according to the team’s results, which were published in Nature Medicine.
The results demonstrate the ability of the SHC014
surface protein to bind and infect human cells, validating concerns that this
virus—or other coronaviruses found in bat species—may be capable of making the
leap to people without first evolving in an intermediate host, Nature reported. They also reignite a
debate about whether that information justifies the risk of such work, known as gain-of-function research. “If
the [new] virus escaped, nobody could predict the trajectory,” Simon
Wain-Hobson, a virologist at the Pasteur Institute in Paris, told Nature.
In October 2013, the US government put a stop to all federal funding for
gain-of-function studies, with particular concern rising about influenza, SARS,
and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS). “NIH [National Institutes of
Health] has funded such studies because they help define the fundamental nature
of human-pathogen interactions, enable the assessment of the pandemic potential
of emerging infectious agents, and inform public health and preparedness
efforts,” NIH Director Francis Collins said in a statement at the time. “These studies,
however, also entail biosafety and biosecurity risks, which need to be
understood better.”
Baric’s study on the SHC014-chimeric coronavirus
began before the moratorium was announced, and the NIH allowed it to proceed
during a review process, which eventually led to the conclusion that the work
did not fall under the new restrictions, Baric told Nature. But
some researchers, like Wain-Hobson, disagree with that decision.
The debate comes down to how informative the
results are. “The only impact of this work is the creation, in a lab, of a new,
non-natural risk,” Richard Ebright, a molecular biologist and biodefence expert
at Rutgers University, told Nature.
But Baric and others argued the study’s importance.
“[The results] move this virus from a candidate emerging pathogen to a clear
and present danger,” Peter Daszak, president of the EcoHealth Alliance, which
samples viruses from animals and people in emerging-diseases hotspots across
the globe, told Nature."

All of these are
true:
(1) "Coronavirus" is real and likely a biowarfare invention;
(2) "Coronavirus" is being politically exploited by sociopaths who deserve to have the power ripped from their dead claws;
(3) Trump's admin is purposely hampering Iran's ability to manage Coronavirus in its borders while advertising the opposite falsely; and,
(4) The severity of the virus has been over-exaggerated and people have been purposely made to panic by the political opportunists. It has become a convenient political excuse to crash already rigged and corrupted Ponzi schemes laughably called "international markets" and to scapegoat the virus for financial schemes that have spelled this collapse for a long-time coming.

Regardless of the
virus, the international monetary system's individuals and personnel, all
thousands of them, should be put on an Excel spreadsheet for containment and
nullification. This is the real threat to humanity and the moneymasters, as
always, are the ringmasters of the biowarfare violations even existing in the
first place under the fraud of their WHO.
Those enforcing the laws and norms in
benefit to humanity against these international terrorists should be given
popular support to snuff the megalomaniacs in their beds if need be.
War is here. They are too cowardly to
declare it, but people must not be scared and must be courageous to defend
themselves and their lives (esp. of their loved ones and future generations)
against yet another attack on all of humanity.
One should ask themselves: why are
these craven snakes in charge of all humanity? It's a math game. They've taken
over the source of the currency, the printers, and created a false value in
humanity's mind and perception that this printed paper has any value. They're
simply using math to control the masses and the masses are too ignorant in the
same subject to critically examine what is being done and to simply put an end
to it.
What's one way to end it ALL? Repeal
the Federal Reserve Act of 1913. A single US law that can be overridden in
numerous ways, including new US laws, Supreme Court re-interpretation, or
Constitutional Amendment by way of State Legislatures or Congressional vote.
This is the plug on the drain. One
can even test the efficacy of this maneuver by merely intimating publicly that
a movement to repeal the Act is real and momentous against it. The Financial
Cockroaches will start crying bloody murder and engage in all sorts of
desperation to stop it.

But the number of
coronavirus cases in the UK has just soared by 30%.
·
Critics have
pointed out that two of the countries excluded from the ban — Britain and
Ireland, the only European Union member exempted — host golf clubs owned by
Trump.
·
The European Union
on Thursday criticized Trump's decision.
President Donald Trump has defended excluding the
UK from his European travel ban by saying it is "doing a good job"
containing the novel coronavirus, but the total number of cases in Britain has
soared by almost 30% in just the past day.
The UK on Thursday afternoon reported a total of 590 positive
tests for the virus — a rise of 28%
from Wednesday. https://news.yahoo.com/trump-says-excluded-uk-european-164346165.html?soc_src=yahooapp
