🚨BREAKING: @WHO team is investigating cases of ~90 people hospitalized with #COVID19-like symptoms in central #China in October 2019—2 months BEFORE Beijing acknowledged the 1st #coronavirus infections in #Wuhan in late 2019.

wsj.com/articles/possi…
#China conducted #coronavirus antibody tests on about 2/3 of those patients in the past few months, and said they found no antibodies. But antibodies could have waned to undetectable levels during the year-plus delay.🙄

#COVID19
The WHO team urged #China to conduct wider tests on blood samples collected in autumn 2019 & held in blood banks around Hubei—#Wuhan’s province—to find when the #coronavirus 1st circulated. Chinese authorities said they hadn’t yet obtained necessary permissions to test samples.🙄
WHO’s finding is NOT surprising—only 2/3 of the infected people in the first cases reported in #Wuhan had exposure to the wet market.

Importantly, Patient Zero in #Wuhan (the 1st “known” #COVID19 case) had NO known links to the market.🧐

This disclosure by #China supports my longstanding suspicion that the #coronavirus was spreading in #China much earlier than Dec 8—when Beijing 1st acknowledged the 1st #Wuhan patient.

Earlier detection could have helped contain the outbreak before it became a global #pandemic🤬
If the 90 cases in #China included #COVID19, it would help explain suspected #coronavirus cases that researchers believe occurred in Europe and possibly the U.S. as early as November and December 2019.🦠
Italian researchers found evidence of #COVID19 in a 4-yo boy from Milan treated for respiratory symptoms and vomiting on Nov 30, 2019—RNA exactly matching part of the #coronavirus—while retrospectively testing a respiratory specimen from the boy, along with other patients.🧬🦠

‼️SCOTUS’ #CitizensUnited ruling allows UNLIMITED, ANONYMOUS money to support political campaigns—aka #corruption—so we don't know all who bankrolled the rally that led to the deadly #TrumpInsurrection.

Just like 2016 Trump’s campaign.

FOLLOW THE MONEY and #EndCitizensUnited.🤬
The really bad part about DARK MONEY: *no one* other than those directly involved with funneling the dirty money into campaigns knows who’s bankrolling.

It could be a US billionaire...or a foreign national. Once the $$ are here in the US, it’s easy to funnel $$ into politics.🤬
Jeb Bush’s Super PAC got nailed with a YUGE $390,000 fine for soliciting >$1 million from #China nationals.

The Citizens United ruling LEGALIZED #corruption, loosening rules to allow hostile foreign powers to launder $$ to support US political campaigns.🤬

🚨AWESOME: Prosecutors in #Georgia have launched a CRIMINAL investigation into Trump’s attempts to overturn election results, including a phone call to @GaSecofState Raffensperger in which Trump pressured him to “find” enough votes to flip the results.
nytimes.com/2021/02/10/us/…
Fani Willis—the Democratic prosecutor in Fulton County—sent a letter to numerous GA state officials, including Raffensperger—asking them to preserve documents related to Trump’s call. The letter **explicitly stated that the request was part of a CRIMINAL investigation**.💥
The inquiry makes #Georgia the 2nd state after New York where Trump faces a CRIMINAL investigation. And it lies in a jurisdiction where potential jurors are unlikely to be hospitable to Trump—Fulton County encompasses most of Atlanta and overwhelmingly supported @POTUS Biden.😎

‼️Video from Parler shows Roger Stone with #Seditionist Proud Boys leaders Enrique Tarrio & Ethan Nordean (aka Rufio Panman)—who allegedly helped plan the Capitol attack—the night before the Dec 12 “Stop The Steal” rally in DC.

ARREST EVERY TRAITOR NOW.🤬
In the video, InfoWars’ Owen Shroyer is standing next to Tarrio & hands Stone the bullhorn. Stone: “We will fight to the bitter end for an honest count of the 2020 election. Never give up, never quit, never surrender, and fight for America!”

#GOPSedition

Tarrio joins Stone and Nordean. Tarrio and Stone engage in an inaudible dialogue as Shroyer continues to rouse the crowd. “We got stabbed in the back by the SCOTUS tonight. This was never their revolution. This is our revolution!”🤬

🚨BREAKING: Voting machine firm #Smartmatic files $2.7 million libel suit against Fox News, Fox hosts, Sidney Powell and Rudy Giuliani for their coordinated disinformation campaign to convince the public of rampant election “fraud.”

Bankruptcy time!😎
bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Smartmatic’s suit follows Dominion’s similar lawsuits against Giuliani and Powell, accusing both of spreading false claims for self-promotion and a shot at flipping the election. Dominion alleges Giuliani promoted the conspiracy to hawk gold coins, cigars and supplements.🙄
🔥Smartmatic’s attorneys have counted “dozens” of references to the smear campaign on Fox News. They say that the false claims made repeatedly and echoed by the Fox hosts is evidence that Fox News was “actively plotting with Giuliani and Powell to disseminate the conspiracy.”

🚨SEDITION: The rally pre­ceding the #TrumpInsurrection was arranged and funded by a small group, in­clud­ing InfoWars’ Alex Jones and major Trump donor/@Publix heiress, Julie Jenk­ins Fan­celli—who donated $300,000 to bankroll the rally.🤬

#BoycottPublix
wsj.com/articles/jan-6…
Jones per­son­ally pledged >$50,000 in seed money for the #sedition rally in ex­change for a “top speak­ing slot of his choice.”

Jones also helped arrange for Fan­celli to give ~$300,000—via a top Trump campaign fundrais­er—that bankrolled the lion’s share of the $500,000 rally.
Fan­celli do­nated >$980,000 in the 2020 elec­tion cy­cle to a joint ac­count for the Trump cam­paign and @GOP.

Much worse, she bankrolled the #Sedition rally to protest the election results that kicked off the violent coup attempt at the Capitol.🤬

‼️JNJ's #coronavirus vaccine's efficacy against moderate/severe #COVID19 was 72% in the US, but only 57% in South Africa where 95% of cases were the B.1.351 variant that's more contagious & has mutations allowing it to evade vaccine-mediated antibodies.
cnn.com/2021/01/29/hea…
The upside: JNJ's #coronavirus vaccine was 85% effective against severe #COVID19 across all geographies and all variants. That trend increased over time, with ZERO severe cases in the vaccinated group after day 49.
JNJ's #coronavirus vaccine only requires 1 shot - a big advantage over Moderna/Pfizer - and provided 100% protection against death from #COVID19.

Bottom line: it's very good and "works," but will help us fight this virus, especially in lower-risk people.
