1. Wuhan Institute of Virology and REMDESIVIR
(Patent and Paper)
Second analysis by Jian Kang, New York Medical College Associate Professor @jkssdk0907
The first analysis was posted yesterday here:
The National Natural Science Foundation of China
2. On February 4, 2020, the Wuhan Institute of Virology announced on its official website whiov.cas.cn/kyjz_105338/20… (now deleted) that on January 21, 2020, it had declared a Chinese invention patent on the "use of anti-2019 novel coronavirus" Remdesivir. archive.ph/88ecC
3. The experimental data that the application relied on was sent to Cell Research on January 25, 2020, and published as a Letter to the Editor on February 4th 2020 in the journal, Nature. (nature.com/articles/s4142…)
4. The content of this paper (see attached figure) includes:
A. the culture of SARS-COV-2 virus in a Vero E6 cell line
B. the use of anti-bat SARS-like virus antibodies to identify SARS-COV-2 virus
C. the test of seven compounds on the growth of SARS-COV-2 virus
5. The experiments include the simultaneous addition of viruses and compounds, the early or delayed addition of compounds.
Each compound was tested at 6-7 concentrations, with three samples for each concentration, and a control group for each concentration.
6. The degree of virus infection was analyzed by anti-bat SARS-like virus antibody, qRT-PCR and Western Blot.
7. Using anti-bat-like SARS virus antibodies to identify SARS-COV-2 here requires a lot of preliminary experiments to determine why anti-bat-like SARS virus antibodies instead of others such as anti-human SARS virus antibodies, anti-bat RaTG13 virus & anti-human SARS-2 antibodies
8. In addition to statistical analysis of data, writing papers, and English corrections, the general laboratory may need half a year to a year, and the fastest and most powerful laboratory may also need at least 2-3 months to complete this experimental study!
9. Yet..The Letter to the Editor was Published:
04 February 2020
The letter discussed the Institute’s evaluation of ribavirin, penciclovir, nitazoxanide, nafamostat, chloroquine and two well-known broad-spectrum antiviral drugs remdesivir (GS-5734) and favipiravir (T-705)
10. Conclusion
If the Wuhan Institute of Virology completed this paper in 2 months, then the time for the isolation of the SARS-COV-2 virus strain would be before November 21, 2019, instead of the officially announced January 5, 2020
11. The Wuhan Institute of Virology - Time Lords?
A similar miraculous feat was noted by Bernd Kaina in:
"On the Origin of SARS-CoV-2: Did Cell Culture Experiments Lead to Increased Virulence of the Progenitor Virus for Humans?"
1. Based on the Parsi calendar conversion and the text of the Persian Mar-Nāmeh (THE BOOK FOR TAKING OMENS FROM SNAKES), seeing a snake today means you should not look at it, otherwise you will soon have a cause to be sorry.
2. Rule 7 cruelly says:
"If you see a snake on the day of Merdad (Amerdid) do not look at it, (or otherwise) you will soon have a cause to be sorry"
According to the Parsees, today is Roj Amardad (also spelled Merdad or Amerdāt).
3. If you see it, how can you not look at it?
The Book for Taking Omens from Snakes (30 Nov 1892)
By President-Surgeon-Major G. Waters.
"The custom of taking omens from snakes seems to be
very ancient. The people of antiquity associated with the snake various peculiar ideas"
Across the centuries & the tracks,
Where bone & muscle give their all,
To answer to the master's call.
And in the pocket, pouch, or hand,
A secret comfort rules the land.
A cheap escape from sweat & pain,
To dull the mind or spike the brain.
And laborers crowd through palace doors,
To drown the shift in burning gin.
While in the slums, for just a penny,
The laudanum drops are shared by many,
To soothe the cough, the cramp, the tear,
And quiet the children crying there.
3. Across the sea, the jungle steams
Where coolies chased their broken dreams.
The shovel bites, the fever burns,
Until the evening sun returns.
Then in the bunkhouse, dark & small,
Sweet smoke rises on the wall;
The opium pipe is lit & blessed,
A pain-free haze, a perfect rest!

That made a vast difference, helping us coordinate our work through chat groups and share our work and keep the public and journalists and U.S. government organizations and commissions informed of the latest updates.
Did ye sing, John Ball,
as they pulled you apart?
A poet speaking for us all
from England’s tattered heart.
What a price, John Ball,
for singing to us all.
When hope came as a crime
in simple rhythm and rhyme.
2. He who sings a blackbird’s song
to a starved & battered throng
with a message to stand strong
would never last long.
So we’ll sing to John Ball
for the helpless & hopeless,
the voiceless, forgotten,
buried beneath the mansions
of Lords; misbegotten
mortar, stones & chandeliers
3. the scarlet grave goods
of England’s preening peers.
We’ll sing in simple rhymes
and hope for better times,
when those barons’ grandchildren,
so viscous, reptilian,
are thrown from their seat
in ignominious defeat.
Here is my attempt at a simple summary of what @JasperFarlake & @dr_louwen claim (July 2026)
1. In early 2020, Chinese scientists published the first big paper on the COVID virus using fluid samples taken from patients’ lungs in Wuhan in December 2019.
