You realize that as soon as a new genetic version is discovered it is mapped and patented, don’t you?

I was under the impression that naturally occurring viruses could not be patented. Only man made ones. Like the rona. So there are not new versions 'discovered' that get patented. Only lab-made bio weapons.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Biological patents in the United States

As with all utility patents in the United States, a biological patent provides the patent holder with the right to exclude others from making, using, selling, or importing the claimed invention or discovery in biology for a limited period of time - for patents filed after 1998, 20 years from the filing date.

Until recently, natural biological substances themselves could be patented (apart from any associated process or usage) in the United States if they were sufficiently "isolated" from their naturally occurring states. Prominent historical examples of such patents on isolated products of nature include adrenaline, insulin, vitamin B12, and gene patents. However, the US Supreme Court ruled in 2013 that mere isolation by itself is not sufficient for something to be deemed inventive subject matter.

The video I linked, ‘Pandemic’, says either the CDC broke the law by patenting a natural virus or it broke weapons treaties by patenting a bioweapon.

Now that I know Bill Gates is the largest donor to both the CDC and the World Health Organization, I think Bill’s out there playin’ with weapons of mass destruction and using the USA to manage the paperwork. Just my 2.

The genetic code can be. That leads to the vaccination.

You would have to show you mapped your own genome in order to use the identical process to attack it. Not many companies have the money to do that. You license their information in order to develop your own therapy.

This is why the mapped sequence of Covid Sars2 was released to the WHO—and why several companies had vaccines about the same time. It was free.
