Silly Fraulein was telling all her female 'friends' in confidence of course. It is a good story as he was the instigator of the UK lockdown and a hate figure for many.

I apologise if that was not your intention. It is important info but doesn't change the view of where the origin of the virus took place so wondering why it made you smile......that's all. Whatever..... My point is that 3 western countries were financially and technically involved in the creation of this lab..... And now they are blaming the lab they helped creating.... Story made a bit of a fuss in the French specialized press. Globally the story was a disaster from the start, scientifists and intel services were against it, but politicians wanted it in the name of "cooperation" and creating ties with China. A bit like the origin of the Taliban or ISIS, both "created" by the west... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt we will ever have all the facts, subject is way too sensitive politically for the governments (all of them). And IMO, there is no point in starting the blame game thing. Sad to see the world is more and more tilting towards this American thing of blaming and sueing for everything instead of working on credible solutions to avoid the same thing to happen again. And this is valid in every domain. Look at the number of lawyers in every big company nowadays. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Health officials from Washington State in the US have reported that newly diagnosed cases of coronavirus caught the potentially deadly illness on purpose at “COVID-19 parties”. Walla Walla County health officials say people diagnosed with coronavirus have told county investigators they attended parties specifically organised to spread coronavirus in recent weeks. Megan Debolt, the director of community health for Walla Walla County, said one of the parties with at least 20 attendees has so far resulted in two positive cases of COVID-19. https://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/health/health-problems/covid19-parties-lead-to-spike-in-coronavirus-cases-in-washington-state/news-story/43375b3e838f26383495f3925912f569 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fygjam Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 1 hour ago, miko said: Hmmmmmm............. Looks like it's already gone. Judy Anne Mikovits is an American anti-vaccination activist and former medical researcher. She has made discredited claims about vaccines, coronavirus, and chronic fatigue syndrome(CFS). As research director of a CFS research organization Whittemore Peterson Institute (WPI) from 2006-2011, Mikovits led a research effort that reported in 2009 that a retrovirus known as xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus (XMRV) was associated with CFS and may have had a causal role. However, the research came under fire, leading to an eventual retraction on December 22, 2011, by the journal Science. In October 2011, Mikovits was terminated by the WPI for refusing to turn over a cell line that was delivered to her laboratory by mistake, and subsequently came under investigation for alleged manipulation of data in her publications related to XMRV. On November 18, 2011, she was arrested in her Ventura County, California, home and jailed for 5 days. Her lawyer said she was arrested on charges of theft brought by the WPI, but that the charges had no merit. By November 28, after negotiations with the WPI, some lab notes were returned. Later, the criminal charges against her were dismissed by the Reno, Nevada, District Attorney's office. According to Snopes, Mikovits has become a champion for believers in medical conspiracy theories, basing claims linking the XMRV to autism and cancer on other retracted papers, and claiming she had been jailed by the influence of the Deep state and Big Pharma for exposing the truth about vaccines. In reality, she was arrested on November 18, 2011, for allegedly stealing lab notebooks, a computer, and other material belonging to Whittemore Peterson Institute (WPI). She was held temporarily pursuant to that case. Subsequently, criminal charges brought against Mikovits by Washoe County, Nevada, were dismissed by the District Attorney and Assistant District Attorney in Reno, Nevada. Mikovits has spoken at a number of anti-vaccination events. She has claimed that retroviruses have contaminated 30% of vaccines. Mikovits has garnered criticism from scientists for stating that XMRV is a communicable infection which is "clearly circulating through the population, as is our fear and your fear". Virologist Vincent Racaniello said that Mikovits's assertion "is just inciting fear." Mikovits showed slides at a conference linking XMRV to Parkinson's disease, autism and multiple sclerosis. However, there is no published evidence that XMRV is associated with these diseases. Mikovits has gained attention on social media for promoting her ideas about the 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic. She does not believe that a vaccine is needed to prevent COVID-19, and claims that the coronavirus was "caused by a bad strain of flu vaccine that was circulating between 2013 and 2015". She also claimed masks will “activate” the virus and reinfect a mask-wearer over and over. One of her videos about the coronavirus pandemic was fact-checked by the website Maldita.es, which rated some of her claims as either false or not based in evidence. One such circulating video gained notoriety in May 2020. Titled Plandemic Part 1, this film is a half-hour long documentary-styled interview of Mikovits's perspective on the accusations thrown upon her by the WPI. This video has been repeatedly reuploaded and forcibly taken down from the video sharing site YouTube. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judy_Mikovits 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for posting it's a really good video. It is actually worth watching, a business being entrepreneurial and inventive to work around the restrictions and the Dutch public welcoming. As a customer you have to book and such was the demand 240 greenhouses were booked in day😀 Nothing to do with people being scared, they are having to work within the Dutch Government's restrictions. I At present with no prospect of having a draught beer in a pub, I'd happily sit or stand outdoors if I meant I could have one.
