| Dr. Fauci's DARKEST SECRET Surfaces As His Predictive Model Crushes Trump Economy |
| 2020-04-30 |
 At point 25:25 she begins discussing the July 2019 Fort Detrick U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID) lab shut down. After having worked there for 22 years, I would say she should have some credibility. Wiki provides a most uncomplimentary review found here which claims she is an 'Anti-Vaxer.' Some pretty frightening stuff to say the least, unless of course one actually believes in coincidences. |

| #16 Come on TW, you - of all people here - should know how it works So many PhDs, so limited grant money... In the old days chasing down a blind alley long enough to prove it was so was considered a good thing, since so many scientific alleys turn out to be blind. But nowadays it’s a career killer, especially for someone riding the hot new thing gone suddenly cold. And lab scientists as a group are not media savvy or socially courageous, so having someone to throw to the wolves becomes desirable. |

| #13 #11 Not that Dr Micovits isn't a cuckoo - but that's, probably, the result of being kicked out. |

| #12 Come on TW, you - of all people here - should know how it works - the lab tech always takes the blame. |

| #11 She does not believe that a vaccine is needed to prevent COVID-19[2] and claims that the coronavirus was "caused by a bad strain of flu shot that was circulating between 2013 and 2015" Interesting... |

| #10 Dr. Mikovits is apparently a brilliant research technician whose discovery of the connection of the XMRV retrovirus to chronic fatigue syndrome turned out to be another overpromised chimera, and the backlash destroyed her career. Here is the 2011 Science retraction of her team’s paper: Science is fully retracting the report “detection of an infectious retrovirus, XMRV, in blood cells of patients with chronic fatigue syndrome” (1). Multiple laboratories, including those of the original authors (2), have failed to reliably detect xenotropic murine leukemia virus–related virus (XMRV) or other murine leukemia virus (MLV )–related viruses in chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) patients. In addition, there is evidence of poor quality control in a number of specific experiments in the Report. Figure 1, table S1, and fig. S2 have been retracted by the authors (3). In response to concerns expressed about Fig. 2C [summarized in (4)], the authors acknowledged to Science that they omitted important information from the legend of this figure panel. Specifically, they failed to indicate that the CFS patient–derived peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) shown in Fig. 2C had been treated with azacytidine as well as phytohemagglutinin and interleukin-2. This was in contrast to the CFS samples shown in Figs. 2A and 2B, which had not been treated with azacytidine. Given all of these issues, Science has lost confidence in the Report and the validity of its conclusions. We note that the majority of the authors have agreed in principle to retract the Report but they have been unable to agree on the wording of their statement. It is Science's opinion that a retraction signed by all the authors is unlikely to be forthcoming. We are therefore editorially retracting the Report. We regret the time and resources that the scientific community has devoted to unsuccessful attempts to replicate these results. In 2015 research efforts turned toward an abnormal immune response to a triggering event or situation, such as an infection, chemotherapy, or severe stress. It appeared that in some cases, for unknown reasons, the patient’s immune system does not reset back to normal after after fighting an illness, but for about three years continues operating full blast; after three years production of some but not all types of T-cells falls significantly. I’m not aware of any major discoveries since then that resulted in an actual diagnostic test or treatment, but in various corners of the medical community research continues. |

| #8 Has anyone looked into what data went into the predictive models? Output is only as good as input and we might find the input was all nonsense, or mostly nonsense, or just has one wild guess that threw it way off. |

| #1 She is obviously a 'disgruntled former employee,' further aggravated by the possible suspension of a security clearance due to legal charges. Book seller, yes apparently a best seller. Having said that, her story still needs to be told and the facts investigated. On the surface, Dr. Mikovits appears to have been a target of the Deep State, not unlike Mike Flynn. Perhaps a good place to start would the the USAMRIID closure. I seem to recall the closure was shrouded in mystery at the time. |
