Fauci's Team Involved in Research to Create Deadly Version of Spanish Flu Virus
[CHD] Scientists in the U.S. and Canada, with support from Dr. Anthony Fauci’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, resurrected the Spanish flu virus through reverse genetics, arguing we need to make a more dangerous version of the virus to be able to make better vaccines for it — even though the Spanish flu no longer exists in nature.

Story at-a-glance:
  • Scientists in the U.S. and Canada have resurrected the Spanish flu virus through reverse genetics. Not surprisingly, the National Institutes of Health and Dr. Anthony Fauci’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases are involved.

  • The scientists appear frustrated by the fact that their reverse-engineered Spanish flu virus — even at the highest doses tested — was not lethal enough to kill the macaque species selected for the experiment. They argue we need to make a more dangerous version of the Spanish flu to be able to make better vaccines for it. This despite the fact that, until they resurrected it, it no longer existed in nature.

  • The argument that we need to create dangerous viruses "just in case" nature comes up with something similar, so we can create vaccines for said viruses in advance, simply doesn’t hold water. This is science gone mad, and it must be stopped.

  • Evidence points to SARS-CoV-2 being the product of gain-of-function research, and a number of U.S. institutions need to come clean about their work, including the EcoHealth Alliance, the University of North Carolina, the University of California at Davis, the NIH and the U.S. Agency for International Development.

  • All of these agencies and institutions have conducted and/or collaborated on research that may be able to solve the mystery of where SARS-CoV-2 came from. But instead of transparently sharing their data, they’ve merely declared that they’ve "not been involved in any experiments that could have resulted in the emergence of SARS-CoV-2." Blanket denials are no longer enough. They must produce the data for independent review and analysis.

  • Evidence points to SARS-CoV-2 being the product of gain-of-function (GoF) research. Indeed, attorney Tom Renz will soon release the results of a major legal investigation, which he claims will demonstrate — beyond a reasonable doubt — that SARS-CoV-2 was created as part of a GoF project.

Whether the outbreak was accidental, intentional or the result of negligence, the end result is the same — devastation of health, commerce, finance and civil life worldwide for years on end.

Now imagine what might happen if something like the Spanish flu got out — or worse, a turbo-charged, genetically engineered version of it.

Incomprehensible as it may seem to the average person, scientists in the U.S. and Canada have resurrected this devastatingly lethal virus and, not surprisingly, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and Dr. Anthony Fauci’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) are involved.

Mad scientists are testing recreated Spanish flu on monkeys

As reported by Renz, Aug.19:

"... this is so absurd that I am just starting with the reference document because I am concerned no one will believe it. Here it is: ’Spanish Flu GoF.’ Yes, that is right, Fauci and crew are now actively performing gain-of-function (GoF) work and infecting primates with the Spanish Flu ... Here is a quote from the document:

"’... Influenza virus A/South Carolina/1918 (H1N1) was generated by reverse genetics and handled in biosafety level 4 (BSL-4) containment at the National Microbiology Laboratory (NML).

"Sequences of the 1918 influenza viral segments were based on data reported under GenBank accession numbers DQ208309, DQ208310, DQ208311, AF117241, AY744935, AF250356, AY130766, and AF333238.

"1918 influenza virus was cultured using Madin-Darby canine kidney ... cells. MDCK cells were grown in minimum essential medium ... supplemented with 5% fetal bovine serum ... and 1 L-glutamine ...

"A passage 2 (P2) virus stock was prepared using MEM supplemented with 0.1% bovine serum albumin (BSA) ... 1 L-glutamine, and 1 mg/mL N-tosyl-L-phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone (TPCK)-treated trypsin ...

"This stock was used for animal inoculation. The mouse 50% lethal dose (MLD50) for this stock was determined previously to be 103.2 PFU; this value was confirmed prior to the use of the stock for macaque infection.’

"I frankly do not care to debate the nuance of whether the recreation of generally extinct virus ’generated by reverse genetics’ using pieces and parts of other animals qualifies as GoF; what I care about is that we have recreated the Spanish Flu and are experimenting with it on other animals."

SPANISH FLU ’NOT LETHAL ENOUGH’
As noted by Renz, the scientists appear frustrated by the fact that their reverse-engineered Spanish flu virus — even at the highest doses tested — was not lethal enough to kill the two macaque species selected for the experiment.

Macaques were therefore deemed "not ideal for the development and testing of novel pandemic influenza-specific vaccines and therapies," necessitating "other physiologically relevant nonhuman primate models."

Renz continues:

"... given the result of the previous coronavirus GoF, can ANYONE possibly argue GoF work on the Spanish Flu is a good idea? Even the simple recreation of the disease demonstrates an incredible lack of respect for the disaster created by the coronavirus GoF.

"So you may be asking, what moron could possibly be oblivious enough to support GoF work on the Spanish Flu while the world is still dealing with the nightmare that is COVID? The answer should not be surprising ... NIH and NIAID are involved.

"Apparently Fauci does not mind what he did with funding the creation of COVID and is at it again. You might also note the vaccine development crew’s involvement. A foundational point in this article is that the newly recreated Spanish Flu is not dangerous enough. Here is a pull-quote:

"’However, 1918 influenza was uniformly nonlethal in these two species, demonstrating that this isolate is insufficiently pathogenic in rhesus and Mauritian cynomolgus macaques to support testing novel prophylactic influenza approaches where protection from severe disease combined with a lethal outcome is desired as a highly stringent indication of vaccine efficacy.’

"This means that these people are arguing that we need to make a more dangerous version of the Spanish Flu so they can make ’better’ vaccines for it ... despite the fact that until they recreated it, it likely no longer existed in nature."

As noted by Renz, elected officials really need to answer the question, "Why is this kind of research allowed to continue on your watch?" Why are we reverse engineering the most lethal viruses the world has ever seen — after they’ve already been eradicated?

The argument that we need to create dangerous viruses "just in case" nature comes up with something similar, so we can create vaccines for said viruses in advance, simply doesn’t hold water. Stop creating these monstrosities, and we won’t need the vaccines!

This is science gone mad, and it must be stopped.

Besides, what are the chances that a virus would emerge naturally that just so happens to perfectly match the virus we now have a vaccine against? The entire premise is irrational from start to finish. It’s biowarfare research and nothing else.

THE INTENTIONAL COVER-UP OF SARS-COV-2’S ORIGIN
Fauci, former NIH chief Dr. Francis Collins, EcoHealth Alliance (EHA) president Peter Daszak and other members of the scientific community have spent the last two and a half years actively stifling debate about the genesis of SARS-CoV-2.

And, coincidentally, most of them have clear-cut connections to bat coronavirus GoF research and/or the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV), which appears to be the lab from which the virus somehow escaped.

So, it appears those who insist SARS-CoV-2 is of natural origin, despite all the evidence to the contrary, are doing so because they don’t want risky virological research to be blamed for the COVID-19 pandemic. That would "blow their cover" and raise questions about the sanity of funding such research.

Some may be so enamored with their chosen careers, that they cannot imagine doing anything other than tinkering with pathogens. For them, pulled funding is a threat to their livelihood.

But for others, the underlying incentive may be more nefarious. Like I already said, there’s really no reason for this kind of research other than the creation of weapons of mass destruction.

Whatever incentive any given player may have had, what’s clear is that Fauci, Collins, Daszak and many others intentionally undermined efforts to get to the bottom of where SARS-CoV-2 came from.

#2 The entire field of "medical ethics" is stone silent about all this. You almost wonder if the sudden mania about mutilating kids (also tacitly approved of by the medical ethicists) is in part to divert attention from this.

#7 WTF is the government doing researching this shit, I'm pretty sure we banned biological weapons, and Fauci's minions do nothing but come up with new ones.
