They refuse to accept that the CCP has no morals or any hesitation to kill off lots of their own people much less those that they consider inferior.

the greatest Pandemic the world has ever seen , based on false positive PCR tests forced on unwilling "victims" (like me) of a "pandemic" that was completely fabricated and enhanced with the timing of a mass die off of baby boomers in Europe and USA.

there was no real pandemic thank god, but the fake pandemic they created by Event 201 got the job done just fine. Useful idiots are still wearing the masks

China has gotten away with launching a bio weapon on us and on the world. NO ONE is interested in getting to the bottom of this.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Your comment prompts me to post this link to a video that I watched the other day of David Martin (half hour video that was streamed live on Feb. 27, 2023). Now that I’ve started a reply, I’m thinking that this probably should have its own posting. Anyway, I’m posting the links and comments below since it sure appears that this is something that requires much scrutiny, and it is NOT something that is going to come out of the current hearings about ‘the roots’…..

https://rumble.com/v2bep4o-david-martin-transparently-hiding...again.html Here is the David Martin video and near the beginning, Martin makes specific reference to this research document dated January 2016…. https://www.pnas.org/doi/epdf/10.1073/pnas.1517719113 On the paper, note the long list of authors and particularly the last one….. Ralph S. Baric. Here is a direct quote from page 1 of the document… “Using the SARS-CoV infectious clone as a template (7), we designed and synthesized a full-length infectious clone of WIV1-CoV consisting of six plasmids that could be enzymatically cut, ligated together, and electroporated into cells to rescue replication competent progeny virions (Fig. S1A).” In the event you don’t recognize the acronym ‘PNAS’, here is what it says on their website ( https://www.pnas.org/ )… “The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), a peer reviewed journal of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS), is an authoritative source of high-impact, original research that broadly spans the biological, physical, and social sciences. The journal is global in scope and submission is open to all researchers worldwide.”

For a quick summary on David Martin video and the pnas paper, I found this link from ‘The Second Smartest Guy in the World’ who lays this out very neatly and I will quote directly below… https://www.2ndsmartestguyintheworld.com/p/david-martin-uncovers-the-continuing Essentially, what David Martin has done is provide the details for a very tight case that what we’ve seen with the WuFlu is the results of the ‘gain of research’ stuff that took place at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill…. and this is really an “operation that was a criminal conspiracy years in the making.”

Further, it may be the Chicoms who funded the Wuhan Institute of Virology laboratory, but it was “for all intents and purposes created by the CIA, DoD, Pentagon, BigPharma and Fauci’s network of tax theft agencies and institutes. All of the Gain-of-Function technology that Wuhan was weaponizing came from Fauci’s bioweapons research point man Ralph Baric at the University of North Carolina. In other words, this is not a China operation, and the intentional lab leak was not ordered by the CCP. Of course, the virus was leaked so that the real bioweapon “vaccine” could be deployed.”

So.... can we expect any of this to be raised in the current hearings? I’m not going to hold my breath.....

None of this will ever see the day, but I believe that we will see another bio attack. No one seems to be trying to prevent it.

“Smallpox was endemic not pandemic.”

I may be wrong, but I thought there were periods in the 17th and 18th century when smallpox was widespread across many nations in surges. Doesn’t that make it a pandemic.

Also, I think that the smallpox ravages of native americans after the early Spanish landings qualified as pandemics.

That said, it doesn’t change that the author is ridiculous calling COVID the worst pandemic in history. Spanish Flu and the Black Death were unambiguously far, far worse than COVID.

The various outbreaks were epidemics because previous outbreaks gave survivors lifetime immunity. So outbreaks occurred regularly whenever the population of virally naive persons became large enough. It’s not respiratory so quarantining the sick actually work. Smallpox worked it’s way across the new world over 2 centuries, not 2 years. Having a nasty death rate doesn’t mean it’s pandemic.

Spanish Flu and Pneumonic plague were definitely pandemics, largely because they wrre novel and respiratory leading to rapid spread globally.

Also, because transportation was primitive, the Spanish Flu and plague while more deadly were far less wide spread than Covid.

Panicked goverment and their stupid policies caused far more death and disruption than actual covid.

We’re super lucky that the GOF experiments weren’t more effective. Fauci could have killed billions instead of millions.

Democrats cry “white supremacy” at COVID origins hearing as experts make scientific case for lab leak

No smoking gun, but theory is “warm to the touch” based on SARS-CoV-2 oddities, Democrat argues. Former CDC director says he was shut out of Fauci conversations to preserve “single narrative.”
