Lab-Leak Theory Gains Traction

LOS ANGELES (OnlineColumnist.com), April 19, 2022--Ranking member of the House Select Committee on the deadly novel coronavirus 56-year-old Rep. Steve Scalise (R-La.) seeks more information on the origin of the virus. President Joe Biden, 79, ordered  53-year-old Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines to find out the origin of the virus but was unable to do so.  Haines stated that because China refused to release more laboratory data at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, the origin of the virus could be lost forever.  While the debate rages on among scientists, the lab-leak theory is no longer dismissed by the New York Times or Washington Post as a conspiracy theory, something they readily did for at least two years since the break out of the deadly virus in 2020.  Because it was an election year, the New York Times and Washington Post, two Democrat-controlled publications, did everything possible to discredit the lab-leak theory, all because of former President Donald Trump.    Trump was the first major figure to go public with the lab-leak theory, stating emphatically that the deadly novel coronvirus leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology, sometime in late 2019.  As soon as Trump stated his position, the New York Times and Washington Post joined the parade of con artists in the scientific community to discredit the lab-leak theory.  Among the leading scientista condemning the lab-leak theory was 57-year-old New York-based EcoHealth Alliance CEO Peter Daszak.  Daszak received over $15 million in funding from 80-year-old Dr. Anthony Fauci at the National Institues of Health, Chief of Allergy and Infectious Disease.  Daszak wrote the first letter endorsed by 27 scientists in the British Medical Journal Lancet disputing the lab-leak theory as pure conspiracy.  Daszak, at the time, advanced no evidence that the deadly virus occurred naturally in Wuhan, China.    No one knew early in the Covid-19 global pandemic that Daszak and Fauci were busy emailing each other, promising to maintain that the virus occurred naturally in Wuhan, China.  What’s most ironic is that World Health Organization [WHO] Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus insisted Feb. 14, 2010 that there was no human-to-human transmission in Wuhan, China.  Tedros made his comments from his Geneva office press conference, criticizing Trump for banning flights to-and-from China.  Yet the Democrat spin machine led by 79-year-old Washington  Post journalist Bob Woodward.  Woodward interviewed Trump Jan. 28, 2020, stating in his book, “Rage” that Trump knew everything about the Covid-19 global pandemic.  Not one person had died of Covid-19 when Woodward interviewed Trump.  But Trump knew everything about the upcoming pandemic and hid it from the country.      Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), 59, has had plenty of dust ups with Fauci in his Senate hearings. Fauci becomes irate, accusing Paul of lying when linking him to funding Daszak’s “gain-of-function” research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.  Fauci’s overreaction stems from the fact that he funded Daszak, who, in turn, funded Wuhan Institute of Virology’s Chief Virologist Shi Zhengli bioweapons’ lab.  Fauci knows that Shi Zhengli’s lab was visited on several occasions by Peoples Liberation Army [PLA] chief virologist Chen Wei who worked on “gain-of-function” experiments with harmless bat coronaviruses, turning them into the deadliest pathogens known to man.  Fauci denies any involvement in Zhengli’s “gain-of-function” research.  Fauci worked hard with Daszak, Tedros and others to deny the deadly novel coronvirus was engineered by Zhengli with the help of U.S. and foreign scientists.    So once Tedros declared a global pandemic March 11, 2020, WHO was 100% devoted to covering up the lab-leak theory of the virus.  China was huffing-and-puffing, threatening any scientist who dared to tell the truth of ostracism in the scientific community.  Haines is right that China scrubbed Zhengli’s lab, refusing to give scientists any pertinent data to figure out the origin of the virus.  Once Covid-19 devastated the Wuhan population with corpses stacking up on the streets, Chinese President Xi Jinping addressed the Chinese people.  Xi ordered the Chinese Ministry of Science and Tchnology to tighten up biosecurity at China’s microbiology labs.  Does that sound like Xi thought the virus came from a wet or seafood market?  On March 13, Chinese Foreign Minister Spokesman Zhao Lijian said the deadly novel coronavirus was made in Amreican and planted in Wuhan by the U.S. military.    Many scientists have admitted that they couldn’t openly express opinions about the origin of the virus because of fear of retaliation, not by China but by Fauci, pulling the plug on their NIH funding.  From Day One in the Covid-19 global pandemic, Fauci conspired with Daszak and Tedros to push the natural occurring hypothesis, despite the lack of evidence.  Revelations that Wuhan Institute of Virology lab workers fell ill were widely suppressed.  No one fell ill in Wuhan by a naturally occurring virus, indicating that the virus did not occur naturally.  SARS CoV-1 in 2003 only infected 8,000 worldwide, killing only 700.  Genetic analysis of SARS CoV-2 shows no resemblance to SARS CoV-1 or any other virus.  When University of North Carolina microbiologist Ralph Baric admits to injecting Agiontensin 2 [ACE-2] in coronavirus in Zhegnli’s lab, what more do you need to know?

Fauci Privately Advised Obama Staffers To NOT Wear Masks: ‘Not Effective’.

— JUNE 1, 2021 | Natalie Winters | The National Pulse

Dr. Anthony Fauci advised Obama-era Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Burwell against wearing a mask – even slamming the practice as “not really effective” – in private emails obtained via a Freedom of Information Act request.

Burwell, also the former Director of President Barack Obama’s Office of Management and Budget, emailed the National Institue of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) Director on February 4th, 2020 inquiring about the necessity of wearing a mask for a forthcoming trip and advice on the direction of a donation to China from investor Ray Dalio.

BURWELL EMAIL.

The following day, Fauci’s response included a declaration that “I do not recommend that you wear a mask,” adding that the “typical mask you buy in the drug store is not really effective in keeping out virus.”

In full, Fauci’s response read:

Sylvia:

Masks are really for infected people to prevent them from spreading infection to people who are not infected rather than protecting uninfected people from acquiring infection. The typical mask you buy in the drug store is not really effective in keeping out virus, which is small enough to pass through the material. It might, however, provide some slight benefit in keep out gross droplets if someone coughs or sneezes on you. I do not recommend that you wear a mask, particularly since you are going to a vey low risk location. Your instincts are correct, money is best spent on medical countermeasures such as diagnostics and vaccines.

Safe travels. Best regards,

Tony

Head of National Institutes of Health Says He Was Not Worried Trump Would Try to Fire Fauci

President Donald Trump stirred up speculation that he might try to fire Dr. Anthony Fauci, the head of the National Institue of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, after he retweeted someone who called for the firing of Fauci last week.

“I didn’t actually think that was likely to happen,”  Francis Collins the director of the National Institutes of Health told Stat News in an interview.

He added, “So no I don’t think I was worried. And certainly, nobody reached out to me at that point.”

Collins added that he speaks with Fauci every night and does not even recall Trump’s tweet coming up in their conversation.

“Tony and I have a phone conversation every evening, sometime between 8 and 10 p.m., just to be sure that we’re completely in lockstep about all the things we’re trying to do with research. I don’t think we ever talked about that tweet.”

On April 12, Trump retweeted former Congressional candidate DeAnna Lorraine who criticized Fauci for saying more lives could have been saved if mitigation efforts were implemented sooner, as IJR previously reported.

“Fauci is now saying that had Trump listened to the medical experts earlier he could’ve saved more lives,” Lorraine said, adding, “Fauci was telling people on February 29th that there was nothing to worry about and it posed no threat to the US public at large.”

Lorraine also included the hashtag “Fire Fauci” at the end of her tweet. 

Sorry Fake News, it’s all on tape. I banned China long before people spoke up. Thank you @OANN https://t.co/d40JQkUZg5

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 12, 2020

Trump shared the tweet and touted his travel restrictions for China, “Sorry Fake News, it’s all on tape. I banned China long before people spoke up.”

But the presence of Lorraine’s hashtag led to speculation that the president was upset with Fauci and might fire him. 

The White House denied that Trump was going to fire Fauci, “President Trump is not firing Dr. Fauci. The president’s tweet clearly exposed media attempts to maliciously push a falsehood about his China decision in an attempt to rewrite history.”

Peanut allergies are one of the most common allergies known to humans. The symptoms from eating or coming in contact with peanuts rang from mild irritations to serious anaphylactic reactions. Meghan Rosen the author of this article witnessed a sever reaction while at the hospital to deliver her baby and luckily the nurse who had the reaction got to an EpiPen fast enough. From that experience she was terrified to ever introduce her baby to peanuts but that is the opposite of what you should do.

The National Institue of Allergy and Infectious Diseases recommends feeding peanut containing food to babies early and often. When peanuts are introduced early then there is a very good chance of preventing peanut allergies says Alkis Togias, an allergist at NIAID in Bethesda, Md. Many books and research about peanut allergies have been published from 2000 - 2010 which confused Megan because each journal gave different information ranging from giving them peanuts at a early age to not feeding them peanuts till they are at least 3 years of age.

In 2015 LEAP (Learning Early about Peanut Allergy) started a trial using 640 babies between 4 and 11 months old with severe eczema and/or egg allergy and divided them into two groups.One group ate peanut-containing foods. The other avoided them. It was the first controlled trial to answer to the“should I feed my baby peanuts?”question and what researchers discovered was remarkable. In babies that ate peanuts the incidence of peanut allergy dropped by roughly 70 to 80 percent.

The new guidelines offer different advice depending on certain conditions. For babies without eczema or egg allergies, the guidelines suggest that parents introduce peanut-containing foods around the same time as other solid foods. Parents of babies with mild to moderate eczema can stick to the above plan, but peanut-containing foods should be introduced after other solid foods, around 6 months of age.

It is important for babies to continue eating peanuts on a regular basis after being introduced to them  “Once peanuts are in the diet, they need to stay in the diet,” says pediatric allergist J. Andrew Bird of UT Southwestern and Children’s Health in Dallas. The U.S. sees roughly 80,000 new cases of peanut allergy every year. “If we cut that in half, we’re saving 40,000 kids right away,” says Togias. Still many parents are concerned that there child has a peanut allergies and stick to the skin prick test which has a high chance of giving false-positive results turning people away from peanuts forever unnecessarily. Now don’t get confused this article is not telling parents that children allergic to peanuts should be eating them every day. These guidelines are meant to prevent allergies from arising in the first place.

This article I found very important. I found it important because peanut allergies are so common and the reason people are getting them is very easy to fix. All we have to do as parents is introduce peanuts at an early age. Some questions that I would ask in regards of this article would be how eczema and egg allergies effect peanut allergies at all and why the skin prick test gives false-positive answers?

Fauci Implores Americans to Follow Coronavirus Guidelines: ‘Let’s All Pull Together’

The White House coronavirus task force’s daily press briefing took on a somber tone as the country’s leading health officials got candid about the grim projections for the coronavirus.

In recent days, Dr. Anthony Fauci, the head of the National Institue of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said that the United States could see between 100,000 and 200,000 coronavirus related deaths with mitigation measures in place.

On Tuesday, Fauci explained that in the next few days, the U.S. would see cases continue to increase despite strict measures aimed at slowing the spread of the virus.

But, he said, “We cannot be discouraged by that, because the mitigation is actually working. And will work.”

Watch his comments below:

Dr. Fauci: "This is tough. People are suffering. People are dying…This is going to be the answer to our problems. So, let's all pull together and make sure, as we look forward to the next 30 days, we do it with all the intensity and force that we can." pic.twitter.com/kq9yfI5Xxa

Additionally, Fauci said that while officials want to help hot spots for the virus, such as New York, get through their peak, they also want to make sure other parts of the country don’t see cases spike. He added that mitigation measures would help prevent that from happening.

“This is tough. People are suffering. People are dying,” Fauci said, adding, “This is going to be the answer to our problems. So, let’s all pull together and make sure, as we look forward to the next 30 days, we do it with all the intensity and force that we can.”

Additionally, Dr. Deborah Birx emphasized that limiting the number of deaths from the coronavirus is based largely on Americans staying home and following the guidelines.

“There’s no magic bullet. There’s no magic vaccine or therapy. It’s just behaviors,” she said.

President Donald Trump also stressed to Americans the next few weeks could be tough, “This could be a hell of a bad two weeks. This is going to be a very bad two or maybe even three weeks. “This is going to be three weeks like we’ve never seen before,” he added.
