Head of the NIH, and Anthony Fauci's Superior, Francis Collins: Now That You Have Me Here Under Oath and Pain of Perjury, I Guess Maybe the Lab Leak Wasn't a "Conspiracy Theory" Like I Repeatedly Claimed When I Wasn't Under Oath

Trust the experts.

No "experts" have ever lied for personal advantage in all of history. That's just Science (TM).

Now Anthony Fauci's former boss Francis Collins concedes Covid lab leak was NOT a conspiracy - despite spearheading attacks against scientists who touted theory

Francis Collins was instrumental in the publication of the natural origins theory

Dr Collins said to have hidden NIH involvement in funding gain of function work

By Cassidy Morrison Senior Health Reporter For Dailymail.Com

Anthony Fauci's former boss admitted to Congress that the Covid lab leak theory was credible - despite previously calling it a 'very destructive conspiracy'.

Dr Francis Collins, former head of the National Institutes of Health, testified in a closed-door session with the House coronavirus subcommittee on Friday about his role during America's pandemic response.

Dr Collins was involved in suppressing the theory that Covid likely escaped from a Chinese biolab, a theory which implicated the sprawling agency he headed up. It was previously revealed that the NIH oversaw grants funding risky 'gain of function' research to make viruses more transmissible and/or deadly.

In a significant U-turn, House Republicans who led the hearing revealed that Dr Collins, 73, told them that the lab leak hypothesis was not a conspiracy theory.

His answers were similar to those of Dr Fauci, who sat for a marathon 14 hours of questioning last week when he finally acknowledged that the lab leak theory -- that Covid escaped from a Chinese biolab -- should not have been so easily dismissed.

Republicans also said that, like Dr Fauci, Dr Collins muddied the definition of gain of function research 'in an effort to hide the NIH's involvement in funding the dangerous research in Wuhan.'

I am not sure how they play loosey-goosey with the definition, but my personal head-cannon is that they are claiming that "gain of function" only results from a direct rewriting of genetic code, through, say, the CRISPR genetic editing process. And they are claiming that other methods of changing a viruses DNA, such as repeated "serial passage" through mice, knowing and intending that the DNA will mutate with every single run through a living host, doesn't count as "gain of function" because it's "natural" or some shit, even though it's just another method of achieving the same result -- mutating a virus until it becomes different and more infections and more deadly to human beings.

If anyone can confirm that, or dispel that, please let me know.

The questioning also zeroed in on the "Proximal Origins" paper. Fauci ordered two of the men his NIAID was providing grants to to phony-up a "scientific" paper smearing those who favored the lab-leak theory as a "conspiracy theory" and claiming that it was nearly impossible that the covid-19 virus could have been made in a lab.

In fact, many scientists pointed to specific sites on the virus, including the notorious furin cleavage site, that could only have been made in a lab. And which looked exactly like the furin cleavage sites of other viruses made in a lab.

Fauci and Collins hid the fact that they were the ringleaders (and, indirectly, the funders) of this paper, then cited the paper as supposedly independent research backing up their claims.

...

The sainted doctors are said to have pushed for the publication of an influential scientific paper that shaped the narrative that Covid originated in nature while discrediting the theory that gain of function was the cause.

The centerpiece of questioning pertained to the March 2020 'Proximal Origins' paper, in which scientists said the theory that gain of function research triggered the release of a genetically modified coronavirus from the Wuhan Institute of Virology was 'improbable.'

Ohio Republican Brad Wenstrup, who heads the Covid subcommittee in the House, said: 'Dr. Collins acknowledged that Dr Fauci invited him to attend the infamous February 1, 2020 conference call that prompted the "Proximal Origin" publication.

'This testimony directly contradicts Dr. Fauci's previous statements and raises further concerns about the U.S. government's role in suppressing and vilifying the lab-leak hypothesis.'

...

Drs Fauci, Collins, and other authors of the Proximal Origins paper have denied that the top doctors strongarmed the researchers into publishing one theory over another, though bombshell emails made public last spring by Republicans showed that Dr Kristian Andersen, a co-author of the paper, wrote that '[This paper was] Prompted by Jeremy [Farrar], Tony Fauci and Francis Collins.'


An earlier investigation completed by House Republicans uncovered an email Dr Collins sent to Dr Fauci two months after the 'Proximal Origins' paper was published that said: 'I hoped the Nature Medicine article on the genomic sequence of SA RS-CoV-2 would settle this... Wondering if there is something NIH can do to help put down this very destructive conspiracy ... Anything more we can do?'

Collins also smeared the epidemiologists who wrote the "Great Barrington Declaration" as "fringe epidemiologists."


During his closed-door testimony, Dr Collins also stood firm on his previous statements denouncing the Great Barrington Declaration.

This petition criticized government efforts to shut down the economy, including schools, and favored isolating just those people at the highest risk of severe illness, such as the elderly.

Collins sent an email to Dr Fauci in October 2020 saying the ideas from 'fringe' epidemiologists who wrote the declaration required a 'quick and devastating published take down.'

The widespread lockdowns that dominated most of 2020 have since been found to have inflicted harm on people's mental health, particularly in children, who were barred from attending school in person, extracurricular activities such as sports teams, and spending much-needed time with peers.


...

Dr Collins also mimicked Dr Fauci's murky definition of 'gain of function' research 'in an effort to hide the NIH's involvement in funding the dangerous research in Wuhan,' according to Rep Wenstrup.

Dr Fauci was also accused of 'playing semantics' during his closed-door testimony last week, when he backtracked on earlier claims that the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases never allocated government money to gain of function research.

He had insisted to Senators last summer that his former department 'has not ever and does not now fund gain-of-function research in the Wuhan Institute of Virology.'

Yet, emails dated February 1, 2020, showed Fauci acknowledged that 'scientists in Wuhan University are known to have been working on gain-of-function experiments to determine that molecular mechanisms associated with bat viruses adapting to human infection, and the outbreak originated in Wuhan.'


Via David Strom, who comments:


Before you express contempt for those people, realize that the consequences of not being able to trust any of the information fed to you is not just dispiriting but incredibly burdensome and destructive to a society that depends on social trust. We all depend on trust to a great extent, especially in complicated societies like our own. Capitalism and our Republic depend on reasonable levels of integrity; corrupt societies like Russia stumble along and are always on the brink of failure.

We shouldn't have to research everything. We have lives to live and families to enjoy.

Which makes the betrayal of our elites a calamity. We can't trust anybody anymore. Our government is corrupt. Our medical institutions are corrupt. Our bureaucracies are corrupt. And, worst of all, the media is corrupt--because we need the media to hold everybody else in check.

The likeliest explanation for why the NIH and Fauci hid the origins of the virus is that they paid to develop it through grants to the EcoHealth Alliance. It's no shock they would move heaven and earth to cover that up--most people would cover it up. Who wants to be held responsible for mass murder, even if it was an accident?

If we had real media they could help us discover the truth and hold people responsible. But we don't.

The media are just propagandists for the officially-sanctioned lies of the Regime.

In further alarming news, a study says that covid-19 shots are linked to autism,at least in rats.


A study from Turkey discovered that female rats injected with mRNA COVID-19 vaccines gave birth to offspring exhibiting symptoms of autism and lower neuronal counts in the brain.

The peer-reviewed study, published in the Neurochemical Research journal on Jan. 10, examined the links between COVID-19 mRNA vaccines and neurodevelopmental disorders, with a focus on autism. It analyzed the offspring of pregnant rats injected with Pfizer's mRNA COVID-19 vaccines during gestation. Researchers found that the vaccines had a "profound impact on key neurodevelopmental pathways," with the male offspring exhibiting "pronounced autism-like behaviors, characterized by a marked reduction in social interaction and repetitive patterns of behavior."

"Furthermore, there was a substantial decrease in neuronal counts in critical brain regions, indicating potential neurodegeneration or altered neurodevelopment. Male rats also demonstrated impaired motor performance, evidenced by reduced coordination and agility."


Here's some great news to finish with: Fauci's Chinese partners are now experimenting with a gain-of-function variant of coronavirus with a 100% kill rate.

In the wake of a plandemic that killed millions of people, caused by a bug that likely escaped from a Chinese biolab that was funded by the US government, the Chinese have decided to double down on playing with viruses that have the power to wipe millions or billions of human beings off the face of the earth.

The arrogance is breathtaking. 100% kill rate.

This time, the Chinese have announced that they have been breeding a bug that has a 100% kill rate in humanized mice, which is pretty impressive until you realize that this is not some fancy new way to eradicate rodents but a scary new way to liquify the brains of human beings.

The lying, treasonous media, one year from now, after an outbreak of a coronavirus that has a 100% kill rate and liquifies people's brains, and also began spreading in China:

"This is obviously a naturally-evolving coronavirus variant and anyone who suggests otherwise must be deplatformed, debanked, and de-employed."

45 OT (sort of): Since we're on health stuff, my lab results came back. The A1C is down to 5.8 from 6.5! Unfortunately it also says that my cholesterol, the LDL-C and LDL-P, are elevated, moderate to borderline risk. I do not want to take statins or carve up my diet any more (part of how I've reduced the sugar was to eat more protein, like red meat, chicken, and eggs, instead of empty carbs).

Not casting aspersions, that's just what the paper said. People who went keto with a low-moderate BMI don't see elevated cholesterol.

He is invulnerable, and so are his colleagues. His mission will not be thwarted just because some regressives have quaint notions of "law and order" or don't find the prospect of their own deaths at the hands of ruthless vivisectors appealing.

Every jab proponent I know has had people in their social circles "suddenly" and not one of them make a connection to the shots. Instead, they worry annoyingly about us dying of Covid or spreading Covid since we didn't get our shots.

122 Gain-of-function mutations are used often in molecular biology to explore the interactions of the gene of interest and downstream signaling mechanisms. For example, turning on the production of a protein ("constitutive expression") that is normally regulated or not produced. Conversely, loss-of-function mutations can stop the production of a protein of interest or prevent the downstream signaling of the gene that would normally occur. Neither of these things is bad or wrong in and of itself.

The question is what is the desired gain-of-function that is to be achieved? If it is the production of pathological or lethal virus genomes, then Houston, we have a problem.

The authors acknowledge as much, saying only that their results call for more research, which could be true or just self interest (More generally, autism and vaccines have been studied repeatedly without showing an association.)

With good food and hygiene, dying in your late 50s or 60s was pretty common assuming you lived past age 5-7. Old graveyards are interesting. Lots of kids and people we now consider late middle-aged. Not many in the middle.

But in the ancient world, 70 was considered the "you made it and have nothing left to ask for" age. Three score and ten and all that.

Now do salt/blood pressure.

If you do like every hour for 24 hours blood pressure testing there is definite spike that lasts a while. Big Salt wants to only test after the body has had a chance to clear it. Big difference in average BP between the two.

It's still up to you, who you want to believe. Reducing salt is as effective as BP meds. But food tastes like crap.

180 Is it Israel conflict that has Biden's approval dropping? Every other metric is improving, inflation, crime, the economy, etc. Biden's approval rating was higher when inflation was high. I just don't understand?

With the young and activists... yes it hurts. I expect 2024 to improve, a couple rate cuts in 24 will help. let's get inflation down into the 2's although rate cuts are also inflationary.

wage growth has outpaced inflation over the past 2.5 years.

Comparing the median wages from January 2021 to October 2023 (Or rather, Q1 2021 to Q3 2023 since those are the closest numbers), we see a increase from $47,184 to $53,664. A total increase of $6,480. While prices increased by, according to your source, $11,434. Which means that median wages exceeded price increases by -$4,954.

Inflation is around the healthy range right now (maybe a bit higher than that but not much). It will generally always go up, though. That's just how it works.

actual inflation is no where near 3-3.5%. The bottom line is that the economy looks surprisingly good on a lot of different fronts - some people just won't admit it.

204 She thinks getting Covid causes cancer. I don't suppose she has noticed whether non-jabbed people are getting turbo cancers after contracting Covid.

When the line on the clot shot went from "you can't get COVID if you get the clot shot" to "it lessens how severe COVID is" it should have immediately set off concerns for the people that worry if COVID causes various issues.

Why?

Because getting the clot shot is intentionally injecting yourself with COVID...only millions more spike proteins then COVID itself will give you. So if COVID causes heart damage or turbo-cancer, and the former is a possibility, getting the clot shot is like giving yourself COVID a million times.

Statins are nasty. My cardiologist had me on that crap and after about 2 months every muscle in my body was sore, I felt 95 and I pulled a groin muscle doing some trivial jogging. I refused to continue and my cardiologist grumbled but I didn’t care…. I’d like to feel human. And you know what? I feel great years later and my cholesterol is fine. Big pharma 🙄

From what I've heard, the general understanding on salt now is that about 10% of people are salt sensitive and don't do a good job of self-regulating. The other 90% regulate salt intake just fine.

This is likely right. Folks have genetic dispositions and weaknesses/strengths. Universal nutrition info that isn't topline, like "don't eat 10000 calories or don't eat food that isn't even made from food anymore" will be pretty worthless to the masses.

Nutrition needs to be tailored to the genetic profiles...and we're not there yet...or if we are, we'll never admit it...

220 I think that these often go up when someone's on a keto diet. I just saw a paper that says the elevation isn't due to the keto diet, but due to the patient's high BMI. Not casting aspersions, that's just what the paper said. People who went keto with a low-moderate BMI don't see elevated cholesterol.

it's on youtube if you want to search.

Saying a Genetic modification shot, which does NOT prevent you from getting a disease, is clearly NOT the vaccine definition from when the Law giving Liability protection to vaccines, was passed.

Changing the definition by a Government flunky does not change the law. These shots are not, and never were, vaccines by the legal definition. Ergo, these companies are liable in court IMO.

Government will try to stop this attack, as they are complicit... but... we'll see.

226 I have finally started the diet I've wanted to do for years, which is very egg-heavy. I have eggs usually one meal per day.

I can't say that it's definitely having a positive effect, but I think by cooking all of my meals (almost all) and having mostly eggs and meat, I'm avoiding various things that my body is allergic too, like milk. My sinuses have been almost completely clear for the first time I can remember. I think I've cut out whatever was causing inflammation of my mucous membranes.

Is that related? I dunno.

Dairy (and wheat) are both known inflammatories for a lot of people...and yet, a lot more people tolerate them just fine. You don't have to be allergic or intolerant to have issues from dairy.

Switching over to Whole / Non-Processed Foods is probably the single best thing you can do for your diet/health.

Do that. Drop sugary beverages and you are going to feel better and start optimizing your weight. It will be slow. But your health will improve with only a small increase in effort re. cooking and shopping.

Unfortunately it also says that my cholesterol, the LDL-C and LDL-P, are elevated, moderate to borderline risk. I do not want to take statins or carve up my diet any more (part of how I've reduced the sugar was to eat more protein, like red meat, chicken, and eggs, instead of empty carbs).

Are there natural (i.e., not Rx) alternatives I can take?
Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius, Dreaming of Elsewhere

You can take Serrapeptase and Nattokinase. Nattokinase, in particular, is derived from soy bean curd, and has been used in Japan for years.
I take Serrapeptase in the morning and Nattokinase at night. These are great natural counters to statins, which are not good for you, in the long run. You can easily get them from Amazon, and are also available from such outfits as Life Extension.
Just going to "Life Extension" might have more ideas about managing your problem.

Newsweek two days ago:

Americans Can No Longer Afford Their Cars6

"According to an October report by Market Watch, Americans needed an annual income of at least $100,000 to afford a car, at least if they're following standard budgeting advice, which says you shouldn't spend more than 10 percent of your monthly income on car-related expenses.

That means that more than 60 percent of American households currently cannot afford to buy a new car, based on Census data. For individuals, the numbers are even worse, with 82 percent of people below the $100,000 line."

269 What are humanized mice?

Specific mouse and human genes can be very similar, but minor differences in the DNA can code for slightly altered proteins. So to test a virus that infects humans, you would need to modify the target receptor DNA to express the human version of the protein.

SARS-CoV-2 relies on its obligate receptor, angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), to enter cells. The mice probably express the humanized ACE2 gene rather than the native mouse ACE2 gene, to allow infection by SARS-CoV-2.

Happened to us. When Dad passed, Mom and I were the only ones allowed in the room. Everyone else had to peer in through the window.

Even worse when my sister passed. Not even her husband was allowed in the room. Stuck her on a ventilator.

309 Very weird thing about the shots -- there is very little control over how much spike protein it provokes your body to produce. I can't think of any other medication for which dosage does not matter.
Posted by: Emmie

It has been found, in limited studies, that about 50% of the people examined were still producing the S-protein weeks and months after getting the Vaxxination with Pfizer or Moderna. The theory is that the mRNA strand has been incorporated into the DNA of some people. This is not well understood why some people have had this happen, and some not. It may or may not be related to the amount of mRNA in the particular shot you received. Especially with Pfizer, there was some wild variation in some batches. There were about 5% of the batches of Covid19 vaxxine that were especially toxic and caused problems, such as a lot of toxic effects that have been reported.
And this was largely on purpose. These people are criminals.

Late to the party, but this point needs to be emphasized. Years ago, I went to a Socrates In The City event, hosted by Eric Metaxas, in NYC.

364 So this happened today:

Some imbecilic NY civil court judge got into a childish argument with Trump in court (an usually embarassing no no in most court procedures in the US). Trump happens to be defendant in some pretend defamation suit - a suit brought when the defendant, Trump, denied the plaintiff's charge of a felony rape that turned out never to have happened and was never charged - yeah, its clown world now in the NY court system.

The judicial system on NY has become the laughingstock of the nation and these NYC buffoon judges in charge don't seem to even care.

"Celibacy" is a thing now for the under-25 demo, and not just for undesirable girls. Although in my experience, it's more a trendy thing to say and a way to keep undesirable guys away, than it is true celibacy. But I do think it's fair to say there's a measurable trend of desirable girls deliberately having less sex than they otherwise could have or were having.

Byjus: What are transgenic mice and their application?
The foreign DNA is put into the nucleus of a fertilized mouse egg and this type of mice is called transgenic mice. These are used as animal models for understanding human diseases and for the production of therapeutic agents. Adequate care must be provided before extracting data from transgenic mice to humans.
---
NIH: Transgenic mice are made by using glass micropipettes to inject a solution that contains DNA from a chosen source into the nucleus of a fertilized mouse egg. At times, the foreign DNA will be integrated successfully into the chromosomes of the mouse-egg nucleus. The eggs are then transferred to a foster female mouse.

Posted by: Pudinhead at January 17, 2024 03:15 PM (pZ64F)


It's pretty safe, and yet there are recommended dosages for ivermectin, unlike the random amount of spike protein any Covid shot induces. Oh, and you can take a Covid shot every two months if you want.

Nobody recommends taking unlimited amounts of ivermectin repeatedly over an extended period of time.

392 Today, Congressman Ted W. Lieu (D-Los Angeles County) introduced the Glue Trap Prohibition Act, a bill to place a national ban on the possession and use of glue traps to catch rodents. Glue traps – boards coated with adhesive used to catch and kill pests – are among the cruelest ways to eliminate rodents. In their attempts to escape the glue, animals may tear off their skin, and some may even gnaw off their own limbs. Animals that do not escape die of blood loss, suffocation, or dehydration. Glue traps also pose a public health risk. The CDC urges Americans not to use glue traps, as ensnared rodents can spread disease.

The traps are already banned in England, Iceland, Ireland, and New Zealand, as well as in over 100 airports across the country. Last year, West Hollywood became the first city in the country to ban glue traps. Congressman Adam Schiff is an original cosponsor of this bill.

395 "Congressman Ted W. Lieu (D-Los Angeles County) introduced the Glue Trap Prohibition Act, a bill to place a national ban on the possession and use of glue traps to catch rodents. "

Stick him on a glue board and leave him.

Either this stupid ban is going to cause manufacturers to stop putting pictures of rodents on their packaging "It's only for bugs, not mice at all, honest!" or it's going to get rid of a non-poisonous way to get rid of excess bugs in your house.

(And if the stupid mice get caught in the glue trap when they're eating the strapped spiders, that's not my problem.)

I'm betting on the latter, because Democrats are [types deletes].
