Anyone want to guess what’s wrong with this paper?

It’s making the rounds as some reason to wear masks. academic.oup.com/cid/advance-ar…
Here is one hint.
They target the N gene which is the highest copy subgenomic RNA in the genome.
SgRNA isn’t infectious.

N numbers are tiny.

A non sterilizing vax that delivers neutropenia in 46% of the victims.

Administered mid pandemic.
What could possibly go wrong?

@GVDBossche Warner against this.

Thankfully most of the population has T-cells from natural infection, otherwise...

This paper would foreshadow the nightmare to come.

Imperfect spike only vaccine across 1/3rd -1/2th the population is like putting low dose antibiotics into half the water supply.

Darwin Award.
2015 paper mentioned by @BretWeinstein

Overlap this with current data on the overlap of nAbs to spike RBD and these authors called it.

Never has this work been more prescient.

If they can censor your YouTube channel, they will censor your money.

@BretWeinstein @PierreKory @PanData19
The freedom fighters need censorship resistant money.
Here is how we did it.
Open access for everyone to follow.
We applied to a DAO to do this. @Dashpay was excellent to work with but in terms of fundraising, you can accomplish this by publishing any cryptocurrency address on a website you Control. Probably best to have the largest market cap coin involved (Bitcoin).
You will be successful but some safeguards are required to prevent people from spoofing your website to attract donations to a near identical address.

A few folks have asked me to comment on this.
I do not think this is evidence of authorities admitting to qPCR failure.

It is evidence of them attempting to clean up the market ...albeit on very slow timetables.

Let’s review...
The FDA has circulated a set of control templates. They started this in May 2020 and more than a year later we are seeing the results.
Good that they are doing. Bad that it’s enforced over glacial time scales during a pandemic.
What’s in the panel?
Not much.
C19 and MERs.

At various concentrations.

Watch the long list of dishonest virologists shill for Tony to protect their field from getting hyper regulated and restricted.

This is protectionism.
No biggie...
Just shuttled some S genes around to see which ones will kill monkey cells.

Let’s do this in a BL2 lab over in China while it’s outlawed here in the States.
In all of my publishing career, I’ve never seen a paper get edited 5 years later to remove references and flip the meaning of critical sentences.
This is a panicked attempt to cover.

For the stats junkies out there trying to make sense of the Vax data.

Fauci used ‘Ethics’ as the excuse vax the control arm of the trial. Now your data is a mess of correlations confounded by age, prior immunity, testing frequency and politics.

Bart sends his love.
Fauci has a history of doing this.
His wife runs the Ethics committee at NIH. When ever he needs a scientific bail out, it becomes unethical to not do it.
See Remdesivir trial goal post shifting.
See HIV history.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simpson%2…
Of course, by eliminating the control arm, everyone is left to draw correlations with uncontrolled data and this debate inevitably takes longer and is more controversial. This is a smoke grenade for the public and squid ink for the regulators trying to make sense of it all.
