The images studied came from 17 babies whose mothers had a confirmed Zika infection during pregnancy and from 28 without laboratory proof but with all indications of Zika. Dr. Levine worked with colleagues in Brazil, which has had more than 1,800 cases of Zika-related microcephaly, to analyze images from the Instituto de Pesquisa in Paraiba in the northeastern part of the country. Three of the babies died in the first three days of life, and researchers studied their autopsy reports. (Photos of X-rays at source site)
Zika Virus - damage and impairments to babies Photos demonstrate brain damage to babies
Thanks for posting
Thanks to open borders we will now have injuring American babies.
Every mom who has a baby born with a birth defect due to this virus should sue the politicians that support this unfettered immigration.
Cherry picking at its’ finest.
“I can think of another Formidable Enemy that destroys babie’s brains in toto, and it’s got about half the elected representatives in Washington DC working as lobbyists for it. “
And this mainly manuactured crisis is meant to cause more if it.
"The images studied came from 17 babies whose mothers had a confirmed Zika infection during pregnancy and from 28 without laboratory proof but with all indications of Zika."
So in other words, the majority of cases could not confirm Zika as the cause, so it could be something else. Like say, agricultural toxins + degraded immune system + lack of nutritional supplementation to offset the effects during the pre-embroyotic stage?
She does a good job pointing out the lack of evidence that Zika infection is causing any birth defect.
But she then starts doing the same sort of thing against the chemical, implying it is the cause without any real evidence.
She’s kind of loony tunes with the antivax and anti-corporate lunacy.
She kind of discredits herself which is too bad because the point she makes about zero evidence for Zika causing microcephaly or any birth defects is a good point.
Interesting information. Have a family member is south Miami that is pregnant. Everyone is trying to get her to come up here (PA) till she delivers.
Good thing our government is importing it then, huh?
Years ago, I read a science article about (IIRC) Microsoft working on a device that killed mosquitoes by using lasers. The device used a ranging sensor and two lasers mounted on perpendicular walls of a room. The sensor would detect a mosquito, and would direct the two lasers so they intersected at the insect, which would then be incinerated. It could track and hit an insect within a second or two, and so could clear a room of insects in fairly short order (and keep it clear) even if a window was open.
After that one article, I never heard another thing about it. Given the lefty proclivity for exploiting rather than resolving crises, I have to wonder about the absence of further development of this device, particularly with Zika now apparently spreading into the US via mosquito vector, and malaria, dengue and other insect-borne ailments seeing spikes in recent times.
A good general article by Attkisson on the Zika virus dated july/29/2016.
However, some of that information has been updated , and was factual as of that time.
More information about Zika transmission and it's side effects are being developed, almost daily.
To answer my own question (after some googling), it looks like the license holder has decided to ignore the “area denial” application, and focus on building laser “fences” that supposedly create a barrier between a mosquito source like a pond or swamp, and a village or other population center.
What’s the most definitive article on Zika causing microcephaly?
I’d like to read it.
So, these poor children are going to grow up to be liberals and globalists? What kind of life is that?
Have you read this most recent article ?
It is the source for this article, as all babies had exposure to Zika and all had microcephally.
As stated in Atkissson's article, there is a statistical correlation between exposure to Zika and microcephally.
However, microcephally exists 'in the wild' ,even absent Zika, and the cause in these cases remain unknown at this time.
