The "Bat Virus" and the Pandemic
There is a bewildering amount of information out there. To make maters worse, much of it is either highly technical or clouded in politics. Lets cut through BOTH clouds.
Updated 06/17/2022: This posting is a broad summary of the subject. I want to present the broad picture first, so that the reader hopefully won’t get lost in the details. When we get down to the details, you will be better able to see where it fits into the “Big Picture”.
I have huge amounts of “detail material” behind this broad picture, which I will be posting as time permits. This page might then serve as an index to that material.

We did not know at first that this was a “pandemic”. Most people cold not exactly define what constitutes a “pandemic” anyway. It was just “very bad”.
Quite early on, it was obvious that the “first wave” was arriving by air travel from China, and that entrance was shut down quickly. As the virus spread rapidly in Europe, we also shut down air travel from the E.U. area. This was to give a bit more time for the U.S. to brace for the onslaught of the virus.
I didn’t take long for images of ambulances and overcrowded Emergency Rooms to flood our screens on the evening news. And death tolls began to mount. Unfortunately, the Big City (especially New York) Emergency Rooms made for easy attention drivers for the evening news, even though most of rural America was only lightly affected.
It was obvious early on that the virus came out of Wuhan, “the home of the Wuhan Wet Market”… (and the Wuhan Institute of Virology.)
Most of the pictures we were treated to by the press were far more dramatic, but I spare you. But while a person might easily be infected by handling, butchering, cooking and eating infected bats, that in no way accounts for the highly contagious COVID-19 virus. This virus does not need bats for transmission.
The Wuhan Institute of Virology was largely dismissed as “conspiracy theory”.
The denials in news coverage about the origin of the virus was … “memorable”, but my intuitive reaction was, “Me thinks thou dost protest too much.”
Getting back to reality, alarms had repeatedly been raised for some time by the international scientific and diplomatic communities about the very lax safety standards and poor training of many of the workers at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. So a leak from a poorly equipped and poorly run lab should have been high on the lest of probabilities. But then I saw a report that later in 2020, contractors were completely revamping the ventilation and disposal systems in the Wuhan Institute of Virology. So perhaps it was just an accidental leak after all?? (Or more cover?)
The “bat caves” are actually 1,000 miles South of Wuhan, and they are home to hundreds of millions of bats. So a pandemic would be most likely to break out “where the 100 million bats are.” There are of course also wet markets there in Yunnan Province. Why would the bats fly North 1000 miles to the back yard of the Wuhan Institute of Virology?
Things have come a long way…. We endured lockdowns, masks, social distancing. For many, there were serious financial losses. Many small businesses closed down. Employees were out of work. Families still had to eat and bills still had to be paid. The emotional upheaval took its toll.
But then the vaccines were rolled out in record time, and “the end was in sight”. …but it didn’t quite work out that way. Here we are — a year and a half later — and the mRNA “vaccines” aren’t working. In fact, if you are vaccinated you are actually MORE likely to catch COVID, MORE likely to be hospitalized, and MORE likely to die. The pattern started to become clear last December, when 95% of the new Omicron cases in Lonon were vaccinated. That is absolutely paradoxical. But that pattern is working out all around the world. The vaccines are doing more harm than good.
It is time to pause and take a long look at the COVID-19 virus itself. Once we examine the “contents”, perhaps we can get a better idea of the origins. It also helps to actually understand the paradox.
Once they have sequenced a new virus, computers can build a model like the one below to visualize the shape of the folded protein.
The spike protein on the left is its form when on the surface of the virus. When it bonds to the ACE-2 binding site on your cell, it triggers like a spear gun and undergoes a dramatic instantaneous change in shape that pierces your cell and injects the viral mRNA load into your cell.
In order to stabilize the spike protein (Would YOU want to have millions of loaded “spear guns” floating around in your body??) they made a small change deep inside the spike protein that disabled the trigger mechanism. This presumably made the vaccine “more safe”. (More on that later.)
Some background information is useful here. There are extensive bat caves in Yunnan Province, about 1,000 miles south of Wuhan in south China. A decade ago, Chinese scientists took extensive blood samples from residents of the area. They expected to find relatively high levels of bat-virus antibodies in their blood, indicting that they had frequent rounds of bat-virus infections. What they found was a remarkably few residents that had measurable levels of antibodies. The implication was clear that bat corona viruses only rarely get “lucky” and find a way to infect a human – perhaps someone with a weak immune system anyway. The low levels of antibodies might also be easily accounted for by individuals who harvested, butchered, cooked and ate bats.
“Bat viruses” are so-called because they are well-adapted to infecting bats. They are actually “good” for the bat colony. If the colony becomes over-populated, then many will die from malnutrition or diseases anyway. The viruses cull out the weak and sickly ones, while still allowing the colony to grow to a very large size, providing themselves with a maximum number of hosts. But the antibody survey showed that the bat-viruses are very poorly adapted to infecting humans.
The next thing to understand is the connection between infectivity and “fine-tuning”. Every amino acid in a protein has a pattern of weak positive and negative charges. They also have a specific overall shape. A protein then has a very complex shape and thousands of tiny charges. If you can picture two proteins, one with a large “dent” and one with a “bulge”, then the two might fit fairly well together. But some of the adjacent charges will attract, and some will actually repel. So typically, the two proteins will just bump into each other and drift apart. Some might have a slight attraction and stick together briefly. It requires a large number of “matches” to make a fairly strong bond.
The COVID-19 virus has a very large number of matches in both shape and charge to your ACE-2 binding site. In fact, “it almost seems like someone planned it that way”. The total degree of “match” determines the strength of the bond, and thus determines how infectious the virus will be. The probability of this many “random” matches is virtually ZERO.
By computer modeling (like in the spike protein models above), scientists could by trial and error (guided by intuitive guesses) optimize the spike protein over time to achieve a highly infectious “weaponized” virus. The enormous gap between the natural bat viruses (which very rarely infect humans) and the COVID-19 pandemic virus seems to have no intermediate steps in nature. Those steps seem to be hidden, as if in a high security lab (?).
More “Coincidences”?
But if we dig deeper into the details of the Spike Protein, we discover still more strange and disturbing “features”. Embedded in the “natural” corona virus spike protein is a fragment of human RNA.
This immediately raises some large red flags. Viruses do not normally just pick up pieces of human RNA and splice them into their viral genome. In fact they have no mechanism for doing so. So how did a snippet of your RNA get there?? Consider further that your genome is about 4 billion nucleotides long. So which specific piece “accidentally” got into the COVID virus?? The virus would of course have no choice: it would just be random.
There is a further problem: if that snippet were just buried in the spike protein structure, it would probably be harmless. It would have to be “cut loose” so that it could perform its natural function.
But things get even more strange, and the papers dealing with this get highly technical. This is the best that I have been able to do in deciphering them: There is a “Furin Cleavage Site” also spliced into the spike protein that does just that. You have a [human] enzyme called Furin. The Furin Cleavage Site is like a “twisty tie”. Your furin cuts the tie to turn the protein loose.
That “random snippet” of my RNA seems to be anything but random. It is selected from a class of proteins in your cells that correct copy-errors in your DNA. Every time that a cell in your body divides, all 4 billion nucleotides in your DNA must be duplicated for the new cell. Inevitably, there are a substantial number of errors made, especially since the “copy machine” is described as “spinning faster than a jet turbine”! And remember: this is happening daily in many millions of your cells! (Your body contains about 30 trillion cells, so many millions are dividing on any given day. ) Any errors that go undetected may become permanent in that cell. That might well be the start of a cancer. So you can see just how important these error-correcting enzymes are.[1] There is solid evidence that COVID-19 does indeed damage the immune system. This type of damage has an established standard medical name. It is referred to in current papers as “Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome”. You probably remember it as AIDS, and COVID-19 (and the vaccines even more so) are causing what is referred to in the medical literature as “AIDS-like” damage. I even found these references in some pre-publication (peer review) clinical research papers posted on pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov. So the CDC is certainly aware of the problem.
But by the same token, you can see why the inclusion of something so damaging and dangerous cannot possibly be considered a “mere coincidence of nature”: There is the extreme fine-tuning of the spike protein to my ACE-2 binding site – with zero evidence in nature of any intermediate steps. There is the Furin Cleavage Site to enable the damaging human RNA snippet to go active. I find all of this very worrisome…
Dr. Mobeen Syad: An Excellent but rather technical lecture. (The most understandable one that I found). I highly recommend subscribing to Dr. Syad’s lecture series.
If this were the end of the story, it would certainly be bad enough. Unfortunately, this was only HALF of the story. The title of Dr. Mobeen Syad’s YouTube presentation is just the tip of the iceberg: “Spike Genes have patented DNA sequences. This is Dangerous.”
“WHO knew WHAT, and WHEN??” It should not be too surprising that someone (or some company) might take out a patent on their discoveries about the spike protein as quickly as possible to protect their financial interests.
But this US Patent US9587003 was issued in 2016. So who knew that a possible pandemic might be coming four years ahead of time? And why didn’t they warn us??
You may be even more surprised to learn that the US Patent was issued to Moderna, a pharmaceutical company that had never brought a successful product to market. They had convinced some investors to support their research, using mRNA technology to develop some forms of gene therapy. So their “business model” was far more focused on fund-raising than commercial production. (The other main vaccine supplier (Pfizer) paid the largest fine in U.S. Pharmaceutical history: $2.3 billion to resolve criminal and civil allegations.)
“Gene Therapy” attracted a lot of investment capital because the concept seemed brilliant, and relatively easy for the layman to understand: If you have a defective (mutated) gene, it will produce a defective protein. The consequences of that particular defective protein can range anywhere from “inconvenient” to life-threatening. Gene Therapy proposed to simply introduce a “clean copy” of that gene into your cells to replace the defective copy. CURED!!
That simplistic explanation apparently worked for convincing investors precisely because it seemed very rational and understandable to the layman. But it failed in reality. First, every cell in your body — there are about 30 trillions — contains a full copy of your genome — each some 4 billion nucleotide “letters” long. If they attempt to modify the nucleus of trillions of your cells… well, you will probably die long before they reach even a million.
Then they discovered to their chagrin that the patient’s immune system and cells tended to recognize the defective gene as “self” and the “good gene” as “foreign”! Furthermore, the cell has a very highly developed defense against any “foreign DNA” getting into the nucleus. The seeming “last straw” was that the “good gene” would have to be inserted at exactly the correct spot in your genome (actually replacing the mutated gene) in order for the cell to know “where to find it”. For example, “Eye genes” patched randomly into a fruit-fly genome can result in a (non-functional) eye growing out of a leg!
But they also learned some things which are applicable to mRNA vaccines. mRNA for genes that are artificially synthesized have problems. One interesting problem involves the nucleotide uridine. This nucleotide can take two forms, and the second form is called (I’m not sure why) pseudouridine.
Note that the circled differences seem relatively small. Note also that you have an enzyme (Pseudouridine Synthase) that deliberately synthesizes uridine into pseudouridine. So pseudouridine is a “real” and purposeful form of the neucleotide, and thus not really “pseudo” at all. The cell has some specific uses for pseudouridine, and some apparently strict rules for its use. The purpose for pseudouridine is not well understood, but you can’t just substitute it at random. They did make some useful observations. Normally, mRNA degrades very quickly (in a matter of minutes or hours). If your cell needs more than a few thousand copies of that protein, it generates another new mRNA. But mRNA with high percentages of pseudouridine are much tougher and more durable: they end up making a lot more copies. But they have discovered that in some patients, the vaccine spike proteins are still circulating their system up to six months after vaccination! So it would seem that this problem could well be related to pseudouridine. At least is sounds reasonable, but it is still uncertain. In what I have read, they don’t seem to have “decoded” the full “working rules” for pseudouridine, so there could be other surprises around the corner. We now know that the spike proteins are highly toxic, so finding them still being manufactured after 6 months is deeply disturbing. But they discovered that “pseudouridine problem” years ago in the “gene therapy years” and it was a serious problem that they were unable to resolve. They still have not resolved it…
When the vaccines were rolled out, very few people would have volunteered to receive an “experimental gene therapy shot” repurposed as an afterthought for a vaccine. So all of this gene therapy history and its problems were carefully hidden from the public. “Informed consent” was not the remotest option.
But we should pursue the AIDS problem further. I should hasten to point out that this problems is not identical to the “AIDS” in the public vocabulary. This is another “acquired immune deficiency manifestation”. You will immediately notice that while this problem is mentioned even in the nih.gov clinical studies, no one seems to want to just come right out and state it as such. A problem in China is bursting through the social media censorship: children 3 and 4 years old coming down with acute lymphoblastic leukemia within one month of the second vaccine injection.
( See https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=acute+lymphoblastic+leukemia+in+China )
Yes, I know! That is the Sinovac (Chinese) vaccine, but it uses the same spike protein. The immune system of children is immature. That is why leukemia is more rare in older children, and that is apparently why the vaccine, after damaging their immune systems, is making young children more susceptible to leukemia.
The last time that I checked a couple of months ago, less than 1000 children had died from COVID-19, and most of those had multiple comorbidities. The adult death toll was over one million, so children were 1,000 times LESS likely to die from COVID-19.
“A new CDC study shows that around 75 percent of American children—and nearly 60 percent of adults—have already had COVID. That means they have strong natural immunity that protects them from COVID infections as they get older. Despite this, the CDC, the FDA and other government agencies are pushing all of them to get vaccinated.”1
Natural immunity is 10-25 times better than the vaccine. So the relative safety of children is even greater.
And yet the drug companies are petitioning the CDC for permission to vaccinate children (even babies!) and the CDC is simply doing the bidding of the drug companies. THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR VACCINATING CHILDREN!
If this seems a bit puzzling, consider this revealing video interview:
