Warp Speed's Manhattan Project Success Doesn't Mean the Wuhan Virus War Is Over

Operation Warp Speed, created by former President Donald Trump's administration, rates as a medical Manhattan Project. Within a year, Warp Speed developed at least three vaccines effective against COVID-19/the Wuhan virus.

"Manhattan Project" has become slang for a chancy venture (e.g., a crash software development program) that succeeds in an astonishingly short time. The 1960s Apollo program to send humans to the moon and return them alive was occasionally called a peacetime Manhattan Project because Apollo produced and successfully employed revolutionary space technologies (plural) to achieve its goal inside a decade.

In roughly three years, World War II's Manhattan Project produced atomic bombs, war-winning weapons that killed en masse.

The Wuhan virus vaccines save people en masse. They have the power to spur economic revival.

Let's anticipate a historical question: Was Warp Speed a peacetime project?

The U.S. space program had a significant military dimension, though the Apollo mission less so. COVID-19/the Wuhan virus, however, is a human killer and economic crippler. It is possible to make a case that China used the pandemic as an opportunity to wage bio-economic warfare. (See my column dated Dec. 29, 2020.) Whatever the local source of the virus' late-2019 outbreak (lab accident or viral "leap" from another mammal), the Chinese Communist Party's decision to lie about the epidemic resulted in China exporting the contagion globally.

The administration treated the virus as a national security threat. Despite intense political and media criticism, it authorized 200 million doses each from Pfizer and Moderna, and then 100 million from Johnson & Johnson. In December, federal regulators approved the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines for emergency use. On Feb. 28, the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention approved the J&J jab.

The internet and social media organs explode to the point of bloat with hot accusations and denunciations regarding vaccine effectiveness. Some of the anger and rebukes may be fed by Chinese, Russian and Iranian disinformation campaigns. I'll discuss those in an upcoming column. There is evidence the Chinese and the Russians are attacking Western-developed vaccines so they can scare the susceptible and sell their suspect potions to poor and desperate nations.

As far as the CDC is concerned, Moderna and Pfizer have proved their worth. The CDC issued new guidelines (effective March 8) advising Americans that "If you've been fully vaccinated ... You can gather indoors with fully vaccinated people without wearing a mask." Another CDC bullet point: "If you've been around someone who has COVID-19" -- again, if you've been vaccinated -- "you do not need to stay away from others or get tested unless you have symptoms."

For Americans who respect the U.S. Constitution, Warp Speed vaccines protect the Bill of Rights. Americans, the vaccines are restoring your right to freely assemble.

I don’t always warn about virii, but when I do, it’s to induce fear.

Stay afraid my friends.

Maybe you should wear three layers of mask and pantie hose over your head to keep the masks against your face.

That is what Dr Faucet recommends.

The china flu is an overblown regular flu season. The death rate is no higher than regular flu when you don't cook the books. Where are the Pneumonia deaths, regular flu deaths, auto deaths, hearth attack deaths, ... They are all counted as covid deaths. The national number of deaths are unchanged. Hospitals get huge payments if they list a death as covid no matter what the cause was. Follow the money.

So when will the FDA remove the labels “experimental” and “emergency” from the vaccine authorizations?

I appreciate President Trump’s efforts making this all a reality. He managed to bring about a medical miracle. Millions of lives around the world are being saved as we speak thanks to President Trump’s work and that includes hundreds of thousands right here at home.

Thank you President Trump!

Agreed! Their lies and deceit cost so many lives in Italy, the US, and around the world.

The western world should have already been working to isolate China economically. We need to shift all our manufacturing elsewhere to nations that aren’t hostile to us and work toward a complete economic embargo with China. Once we and the rest of the western nations have China on economic life support, we need to all cancel all debt held by China and seize all available Chinese assets held in any western nation.

That would put an end to their ability to threaten the rest of us.

These experimental "vaccines" do not stop the spread of the China virus because they aren't technically vaccines. So, scientifically they don't stop people from spreading the virus. Since the virus itself was propagandized with inflated death numbers to scare people into hiding, submission and conformity, we now see that permission will now be given to exercise what used to be rights, to those who submit to becoming human guinea pigs. This so Big Pharma can make obscene profits from the U.S. government from a virus which is extremely rarely deadly. Much suggests these vaccines were developed years prior as if waiting for a planned event. Many in the MAGA crowd think the vaccine was with held until after the election to hurt Trump. It may well be that Big Pharma was afraid to release the vax too soon for fear Trump would shut them down for causing more harm than benefit.
