Maybe new versions of the disease need to be released regularly ...

Maybe China has taken a second look at Africa with their "poison everything" from snakes to reptiles to bugs and decided they don't want Africa after all.

Don’t believe that at all. Omicron is not a derivation of the first Alpha version. Its got half of the two cleaves. It did not go to some African HIV patient and stay there for 18 months before finding a second host. Its a second lab leak. Its a precursor. And its acting the part of a live vaccine.

Your story would be a child of Alpha that leaked, not the first Alpha patient. But rather the patient before him. Who would be a HIV lab worker. Boy is that a bad job. Then that guy would have to go to Africa and maybe 14 months later give the virus to another guy, who spreads it all around southern Africa. Hard to imagine. Easier to imagine China or America is trying to save millions of people but does not want self incrimination. So they let their live vaccine go in a place that has little advanced systems for tracking or detecting a virus. To give it a nice head start. Eventually South Africa spots it but only after it has gone through several African countries.

Remember the lab has the virus before the cleave and any partial versions. So it already has a vaccine. But to let that version go in China would be admitting the lab leak to the world. So they need to give it to someone else and let it find its way back to China or America.

The CDC is not full of doctors they are bureaucrats with degrees. They are not our brightest or bests. They are the guys who buy researchers and tell them what to research. They try to shape and bend research. You are better off not listening to American researchers. Their source of funding dictates their research. That funding is Bill Gates or Fauci or Big Pharma. Denmark has good researchers. And even South Africa is doing good work.

Well, at least Biden's handlers told them to shut up. I guess they served their purpose. They assisted in tanking Trump's reelection. Now Joe's in charge, they have to get with the program. The pandemic is over. At least Biden's handlers are not covidists, I'll give them that. Justin Trudeau is way worse. And that guy in Australia.

I know many professors of science at big research universities. The guys who get the awards and fame and money are the professors who can get the most grant money. Not because they are the best researchers or smartest scientists. They are gifted at schmoozing and filling out grant forms correctly. Its woke science. Our universities are staffed as badly as our government. The wokest are on top in every field. They bring in the money. And nobody researches an answer the government does not want to know.

Agree about that being a bad job, lol!

The theory that it evolved in a HIV+ positive patient (or other chronic illness such as a TB sufferer) seems the most plausible to me:

https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-022-00215-2

According to this, it did evolve from a child of Alpha:

“...evolutionary virologists estimate its closest-known genetic ancestor probably dates back to more than a year ago, some time after mid-2020”

You may disagree, which is your prerogative.

It’s still somewhat of a puzzle, I’ll grant.

No average Anerican is going to trust a bueruacrat from NIH or CDC ever again.

This is it yet another rehash of an AP article posted over and over here last year with a clickbait headline about scientists being “mystified”.

Yes, yes it is. Nothing has changed. They must support the narrative, thus all outliers are 'mysteries'.

It's propaganda, with a subtle warning for those with credentials to comply.

Here’s a list of places to order IVM (as well as HCQ, AZM, DOXY, and many other generic meds), as well as the various Protocols for use.


All of these sources are in India, no Rx required, all ship via Singapore (to avoid risk of seizure). I’ve done test orders from all of them and had no problems. (My personal preference is ReynoldMeds. The guy who runs it loves Trump, America, and Patriots, speaks and writes good English, and has great customer service.)

I started studying the Covid situation in April 2020 when a good friend pointed out that Youtube and Google were erasing information about use of Vitamin C for Covid in China and related information. Subsequently, I noted that within a week or so Fauci and Trump ceased mentioning the critical virus stopper/killer ZINC from discussion of Dr. Zalenko’s low cost ($20 per treatment course), 3 part treatment for early Covid. Then I saw Fauci in May 2020 propose testing HCQ and Azithromycin (NO ZINC) in hospitalized people to find low cost existing medicines to combat Covid. Soon thereafter he was promoting new high cost ($3000 per treatment course) Ivermectin, which subsequently proved not very effective in reducing time in hospitals.

About April 2020 I figured out that symptoms “loss of taste and smell” were caused by rapid using up of the body’s Zinc stores when infected by Covid. By July 2020 I had learned dark skinned people were dying at a rate 2.5 times that of light skinned people. A hospital study said 80% of their very sick black male patients were severely Vitamin D deficient. I started taking Vitamin D3 that summer and into winters at doses ranging from 2000IU to 5000IU depending on sun exposure and diet. I also started regular perusal of the information sites “worldometers, Covid-19, World, and US”. I was surprised at how low the Covid rates were in a number of Second and Third World countries, even some I know had reasonably good public health services and thus better statistics.

As controversies and demonization regarding HCQ and Ivermectin began to surface I searched for scientific info on both substances. HCQ was well known as an effective treatment for Malairia for many millions. Ivermectin was so effective for River Blindness and Elephantiasis that huge amounts of money were approved to provide over a BILLION doses of Ivermectin to prevent and cure these 2 horrible diseases. I have no idea why these 2 treatments were not approved for compassionate use or off lable use for Covid-19 since in normal doses they were rarely harmful.

In spring/summer 2021 the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh population around 240 million) successfully treated their entire Covid ill members with Ivermectin. This occurred before Vaccines were readily available. I looked everywhere for details on this campaign, and only months later found a courageous US publication printed the entire protocol which included Ivermectin, Zinc, and several other previously identified but suppressed components. India’s PM Modi congratulated Uttar Pradesh on their success but avoided much discussion of the actual treatment and a few days later traveled to the US for high level meetings.

By that time there had been a lot of alternative source discussion of Dr. Zalenko’s 3 part treatment. Subsequently he decided a better combination was Ivermectin, Zinc, and Doxycycline. He also said that publicly available Quercetin could be used if Ivermectin or HCQ were not available from a doctor. HCQ, Ivermectin, and Quercetin function as “ionophores” to help Zinc get into infected cells more easily. Meanwhile Pfizer and Moderna where very busy injecting and influencing the rules and laws on Covid and raking in the US taxpayer subsidies.

In fall 2021, I found the BEST study on Covid treatment I had seen. This Turkish study started Spring 2021 before there were vaccines and tested the original Zalenko protocol, plus 5000IU Vitamin D3, and either no extra Vitamin C, or 25,000 mg Intravenous Vitamin C on a total of 237 hospitalized patients with Covid-19. The IV Vitamin C greatly shortened the length of hospital stay (far better than Remdesivir). When the study was ended they looked at the preliminary blood tests of the proposed test subjects and were astonished to find that NOT ONE patient had OPTIMUM blood Vitamin D levels. Three subjects were insufficient, and the other 234 were divided between deficient and severely deficient. The only dead subject had an extremely low Vitamin D blood level.

This study proved 3 important things: 1) The original Zalenko Protocol saved lives even amoung hospitalized Covid patients. 2) Low cost high IV Vitamin C levels can substantially reduce number of days of hospitalization. 3) People with OPTIMUM blood vitamin D levels (30 ngm/M or higher) rarely show up in hospitals. Kaiser Permanente uses a higher Optimom Level, 50 to 80 ngm/mL. At my Dec. 2021 KP annual physical I was delighted to find my blood level of Vitamin D was 66 ngm/mL.

Thus I agree that the fact many millions of people in more tropical countries are using HCQ and Ivermectin has kept their Covid rates low, which has also reduced spreading of the disease within these populations. Since dark skinned people in hot countries get a lot more sun exposure than dark skinned people in the US, especially during winter or air conditioner season, it makes sense the COvid rate here is 2.5 times higher for dark skinned people, but not like that in Africa.

I have also noted various reports of people in China showing some Covid illness as early as Sept. 2019, and some in the US as early as Nov. 2019, in west coast states. Apparently the form of Covid brought back by the Chinese fashion workers in Milan, Italy, from their Christmas time annual vacations to China was probably more deadly than the form that first affected our West Coast. It soon ravaged our East Coast since people were not being questioned about exposure in Italy at that time at the airports.

Perhaps there were forms of Covid caught from meat markets, and from a Laboratory. Some of these infected people may have gone to or returned to Africa and other countries also around the Christmas period of 2019-2020 which would explain some anomalies found in those place. Infection may or may not have been spread intentionally. Or both ways.

For me, the bottom line for our good health is this: eat healthy food and take supplements to improved your immune system for those items you my need more of or cannot get in your local food supply. Get adequate Vitamin D3, Vitamin C, and Zinc, and keep an ionophore like Quercetin, EGCG, or HCQ or Ivermectin and extra Zinc on hand in case you get sick from a virus like Covid or the Flu. Check worldometers, Covid-19, US, for Covid levels in your state. At the far right you can click a word (statistics) that will give you 6 charts showing Covid rates and deaths in your state over time. Wearing a mask during times and in places where Covid may spread is a sensible thing to do. Fewer virus particles in your nose and lungs means an easier to treat illness level. Remember, Winter is upon us and many need more Vitamin D3.

The critical question was whether adequate ZINC was used in these treatments and scientific studies. It appeared that Fauci had successfully eliminated Zinc from scientific consideraton. In the year after Covid was discovered, one analysis found 95% of studies begun to study medicines and Covid FAILeD to include ZINC. The ESSENTIAL virus stopper/killer. Our country and Fauci and others have systematically discouraged the use of nutrients in disease treatment and emphasized medicines, especially New medicines for successful treatment.

We should lobby our Congresscritters to demand more NIH money be used for nutritional research and less for new drug research. Currently almost all has been for drug research. This year 3 close friends and family members have been treated for cancer. I have looked at a number of scientific cancer studies. I have noticed that around 2000 a number of interesting References have been listed about possibilities from natural and food substances, but very few follow up study has been done since 2010. Why is that? Does the fact that Fauci controlled a $6 billion NIH research budget for many years have something to do with that?

Several questions. What was the relative availability of air conditioning forJewish Israelis, or non Jewish Israelis or Plastinians. Also were any of the now Jewish populations takin HCQ for Malairia?

Another questionn regards the use of soap and water. Sun produced Vitamin D is more readily absorbed when the skin has oils on it when exposed to the sun. Bathing, especially with soap before going outside, or soon after coming inside can interfere with the amount of Vitamin D absorbed. My son doing construction work in Puerto Rico was found to be Vitamin D deficient. He was showering right after coming home from his outdoorwork. I suggested he wait a few hours before showering, or else just do a quick rinse without soap, to remove sweat, and bathe later.

Hmm. Interesting. I recall feeling frustrated that small studies of various natural remedies showed promise, but larger better studies rarely followed (because of lack of funding, I assumed). Could well be as you say.

Then it seemed to me that there was more research into natural remedies and nutrition as the years wore on, but I was looking more at other maladies than at cancer. I did appreciate the 2015 NEJM study showing nicotinamide (vitamin B3) reduced recurrence of squamous-cell carcinoma by 30%, as my Dad was prone to those.

It is so sad that funding seems to be lacking when it comes to nutritional/natural research.

I don’t know the details of the protocols. One of the protocols was Dr. McCullough’s, another was Dr. Marik (EVMS). I suppose you could look them up to find the amounts, etc.
