Covid antibodies found in stored blood from Sept/Nov 2019 in European blood banks. The implications are enormous.
1. Long before the official start date, it was too late to stop the disease from spreading across the earth. We have wasted 2 years on lockdowns for nothing.
[1/4]
2. The pre-prints finding the virus in Nov/Dec 2019 in the Wuhan markets (reported breathlessly by the NYT) do not point to the true origin events of the virus.
[2/4]
3. The early seroprevalence studies that found a prevalence of 3%+ in large US metro centers are not so surprising in light of a Sept/Nov 2019 European start date.
Why have the studies @contrarian4data linked not received more attention from the press and scientific communities?
[4/4]
@contrarian4data Update: Some commenters are questioning the specificity of antibody tests in general as a basis for dismissing the French and Italian papers. But the false-postiive rates of antibody tests differ across tests and are generally low. I don't see a specific critique of these tests.
@contrarian4data I'm open to being convinced that the tests used are not fit for purpose, but it will take more than just links to papers that show that some antibody tests have a high false positive rate.

The @who now claims it never supported lockdowns in 2020. Let's look at some receipts.
Feb 2020
The WHO Potemkin tour of China proclaims the Chinese lockdown "proven" to stop human "transmission chains", buying time for "vaccine development".
April 2020
As some parts of the world started to come out two weeks to slow the spread fever, the WHO recommends a set of stringent preconditions for lifting lockdown.

May 2020
The WHO issues a warning to countries to keep lockdowns in place until the epidemic is "under control". Under this faulty guidance, the world should probably still be in lockdown.

The House report on HHS covid propaganda is devastating. The Biden admin spent almost a billion dollars to push falsehoods about covid vaccines, boosters, and masks on the American people. If a pharma company had run the campaign, it would have been fined out of existence.
1/23
HHS engaged a PR firm, the Fors Marsh Group (FMG), for the propaganda campaign. The main goal was to increase covid vax uptake.
The strategy: 1. Exaggerate covid mortality risk 2. Downplay the fact that there was no good evidence that the covid vax stops transmission.
2/23
The propaganda campaign extended beyond vax uptake and included exaggerating mask efficacy and pushing for social distancing & school closures.
Ultimately, since the messaging did not match reality, the campaign collapsed public trust in public health.
3/23
So, public health can impose draconian public health measures at scale without good evidence and in the absence of informed consent from the public, but researchers cannot test if the measures 'work' because it is impossible to gain informed consent.
The Stanford Pandemic Conference last Friday was an enormous success. Experts who supported early school closures reasoned together with those who didn't. Experts who oppose the lab-origin theory of covid reasoned with people who support it.
Empaneling civil discussion on the vital issues of the day -- topics on which experts differ -- should be a key function of universities. I am proud that @stanford has embraced its motto, "Let the winds of freedom blow."
And yet, there has been a subculture of scientists and journalists -- none of whom attended the conference -- who have taken it upon themselves to denigrate and dehumanize anyone who attended or supported the conference. 3/n
In Murthy v. Missouri, the Sup Ct ruled I did not have standing to sue the Biden-Harris Admin over censoring my speech online. They reasoned, in part, that there was no evidence of ongoing harm.
On Monday, @YouTube censored a podcast on my new channel, @SciFrTheFringe.

Last week, on the @SciFrTheFringe channel, @aya_velazquez, @VBruttel, and @BBarucker discussed the RKI files, a major scandal in Germany that exposed political manipulation of scientific speech to fool the public about lockdowns and mandates. 2/7
On Monday, @YouTube flagged the discussion as "medical misinformation" and pulled the video. I appealed, and they affirmed their decision without pointing to any particular fact discussed as factually incorrect. 3/7
1. it's not true that all the evidence supports natural origin. That is simply false, and the key papers that support the idea have fallen apart.
2. Regarding myocarditis in young men via the vaccine, the estimate you cite is an order of magnitude too low. The reasoning misses the key point that since the vax does not prevent infection, any myocarditis risk from it is additive.
Happy to discuss in detail. I have cites in the piece you invited me to write for Skeptic.
@michaelshermer Here is the crux of the lab leak argument. Lots of detailed facts underneath it but @WashburneAlex meme is the high level summary.
@michaelshermer @WashburneAlex And here is a pointer to some of the evidence on the myocarditis evidence. It is key to have set and age specific evidence because the rate in young men is so much higher than in other age and sex groups.
