Coronavirus started infecting people globally late last year: study
The Hill ^ | 05 05 2020 | Tal Axelrod

The coronavirus has been circulating among people since late 2019 and appears to have experienced a highly rapid spread after the first infection, according to a new genetic analysis of 7,600 patients around the world.

Researchers in Britain wrote in a report published Tuesday in the journal Infection, Genetics and Evolution that they examined samples taken at different times and from different places, concluding that the virus first began infecting people late last year.

The researchers found evidence of quick spread but found no indication that it is becoming any easier to transmit the virus, which was first identified in Wuhan, the capital of China's Hubei province, in December 2019.

"The virus is changing, but this in itself does not mean it's getting worse," genetics researcher Francois Balloux of the University College London Genetics Institute told CNN.

The study indicated that infections in the U.S. and Europe specifically could have occurred weeks or months before the first official cases were reported in January and February, making it more difficult to find “Patient Zero” in any particular area.

Fauxi knew HCQ was a treatment and prophylaxis for coronavirus 15 years ago. Anecdotal my eye. Redrum.

Well, maybe that’s why they don’t call it Covid-20?

An eye-opener video of epic proportion.
Dr. Anthony Fauci is declared to be the Bernie Madoff of Science. ( 6:50 into the video )
 
The video is at 1.3 million views and has been posted for only 2 days.
Also.. read the comments below the video on YouTube to see how fellow Americans feel.

PlanDemic, a video about the global plan to take control of our lives, liberty, health & freedom.

ABOUT THE FILM Humanity is imprisoned by a killer pandemic. People are being arrested for surfing in the ocean and meditating in nature. Nations are collapsing. Hungry citizens are rioting for food. The media has generated so much confusion and fear that people are begging for salvation in a syringe. Billionaire patent owners are pushing for globally mandated vaccines. Anyone who refuses to be injected with experimental poisons will be prohibited from travel, education and work. No, this is not a synopsis for a new horror movie. This is our current reality.

Duh. Anyone with two brain cells knew the virus didn’t stay in Chyna from Nov-Dec then decide to hop a flight to the US in early March.

this might have been posted previously, but I just saw it today:

Wikipedia: The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) is part of the United States National Library of Medicine (NLM), a branch of the National Institutes of Health (NIH).

most authors CDC:

Aug 2005: NCBI: Virology Journal: Chloroquine is a potent inhibitor of SARS coronavirus infection and spread
Conclusion
Chloroquine is effective in preventing the spread of SARS CoV in cell culture. Favorable inhibition of virus spread was observed when the cells were either treated with chloroquine prior to or after SARS CoV infection...

Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is an emerging disease that was first reported in Guangdong Province, China, in late 2002...

Fauci is a criminal and he should be dealt with accordingly.

It’s already been acknowledged that there were at least a handful of cases that got in before the China flights were restricted and then shut down in January.

And while there may have been some Wuhan Coronavirus cases around the world in Nov-Dec, they don’t appear to have been in the large numbers then which some folks have been claiming.

That, or articles like it, were posted earlier when people first began talking about Chloroquine having an effect. This knowledge is why doctors looked to the drugs as a possible solution so early as opposed to 6 months from now after studies picked out the correlation.

"No kidding"

yes, no kidding is right.

Just a few...

1. 02.10.2020
2. 02.24.2020

Didn't take a "world renowned" epidemiologist or virologist to see that this thing has been around since well before 2020 in our air traveling interconnected world. Simple, common sense said Wuhan-19 was here in our country sometime in 2019.

This "novel" respiratory disease never was the zombie apocalypse that too many power mad libs said it was.

Remove annual immunizations...and Wuhan-19 is not markedly more deadly than seasonal flu.

Yet, "we" shuttered our country and our economy, creating financial circumstances nearing a depression, primarily because the CCP didn't give the world any information as to what they let get loose on the world.
