You would think hot weather should be arriving to Spain now. That heat should kill off the virus outside of buildings.

I guess we will find out soon if Hot Sunny weather kills the virus or not.

Fort Detrick Researchers Ominously Prescient in their Analysis of a New & Dangerous Coronavirus

New Coronaviruses Deadly

By 2018, Allison Totura and Sina Bavari, again researchers with Fort Detrick, discussed previous outbreaks involving SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV noting, “These coronaviruses may have the potential to cause devastating pandemics due to unique features in virus biology including rapid viral replication, broad host range, cross-species transmission, person-to-person transmission, person-to-person transmission, and lack of herd immunity in human populations.”

Although these first two outbreaks were contained by “diligent enforcement of public health measures” ominously they pointed to the threat of a “as-yet unknown BatCoV that causes severe disease in humans and makes antiviral therapeutics that broadly target coronaviruses a highly desirable commodity to ensure global public health.”

Instructing us back in 2018

Ms. Totura and Mr. Bavari essentially warned governments back in 2018 to start acting now when they noted that governments’ currently must “produce medical countermeasures that can protect vulnerable populations against known coronaviruses (SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV) but also could be effective against…novel highly pathogenic coronaviruses that may emerge from animal reservoir hosts.”

US Abruptly Ends Continuous Bomber Presence In Guam Days After B-52 ‘Show Of Force’
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/us-abruptly-ends-continuous-bomber-presence-guam-days-after-b-52-show-force
Why move out strategic bombers back to CONUS? Are we “castling” to borrow a chess move term?
*******************************************************************************************

I mentioned this in a post yesterday. Seemed to be strange timing. I thought it might possibly be to get them out of range of potential missiles.

Some of the conspiracy gurus think this was a bio attack as an opening salvo to prepare the battlefield and expect China or Russia to possibly take advantage of the situation.

WHO must be saved for the good work it actually does do, in spite of their contacting Google and Facebook to muzzle word out of China that high dose Vitamin C might actually be helpful. How does Big Pharma control WHO to make the do Big Pharma’s bidding in suppressing low cost treatments like C to kill viruses and maintain integrity of lung tissue, or Vitamin D which is especially important for dark skinned people living outside sunny areas.

If they are spraying something similar to lysol, it will devastate the natural environment. Kills bacteria too, which can be very important to ecosystems

That would be my first thought too. Why leave your battleships all nicely lined up in rows if you expect an attack. You would want to disperse them as much as possible. So don't be surprised if you see one sitting at your local airport. If you do, know things are much closer to the edge than we know.

Likewise, the opposing side would take the same initial steps. Or at least be prepared to do so at the start of any planned attack.

If NIH is not investigating low body levels of Vitamin D in dark skinned people who are getting sick, then they are not determining whether Vitamin D deficiency may be a factor in the higher death rate of dark skinned people like Negros and Latinos. However, doctors are not deliberately to blame for their failure to receive important education and information that Big Pharma prefers they not have. There are no salesmen running around to doctors telling them the important new findings for those old standbys vitamins and minerals that are really cheap and readily available to the public.

Hot Weather also implies plenty of sun. Given the high Negro population in SC, if Vitamin D is a critical factor for higher death rates in dark skinned people, then hot weather/sun would also see a reduction in Covid cases. So definitely be aware an increase is a possibility in Winter if Vitamin D is a factor. Also people eat more high C foods in summer and fall

GARY CRAMERI: We’ve been looking in bats for about the last eight years looking for this particular virus and although a lot of groups across the world have been, this particular virus can infect humans directly, as the original SARS virus could.

We also need to see what summer sun does to people’s Vitamin D and C levels. A lower illness rate may not be directly due to hot/sunny weather at all. Only the indirect cause of creating Vitamin D on people’s skin or producing food with high levels of Vitamin C.

I wonder if these researchers were reacting to knowledge that Bolton and the President would be removing the pandemic office from the White House and cutting the CDC budget related to cross-species transmission and pandemics by 80% in 2018.

Fresh air, exercise & sunshine. What’s not to like about a walk in the woods.

There are similar studies about the positive effect of houseplants.

Crameri’s boss, China-born virologist Linfa Wang,

So it appears Australia had a Bat Man who worked with the Bat Lady who is now missing. He seems to have disappeared so perhaps he died. BUt still can’t find any notices so far of his death. Interesting that people on twitter bring this guy up.
