I’m not familiar with the lineage A vs B story - could you provide a quick synopsis? Does one derive from the other or are they both descendants of something else. Which sequence was the PCR based on? Which was used for the first vaccines? Are they different enough to account for different behaviours in patients - was one more likely to be the cause of the seriously ill in New York, Bergamo, Iran and the other more likely to be the weird ‘make me move like a sloth’ with other symptoms thing that I had in Nov/Dec’19 and so many other people survived unscathed?

Also, do you have any opinion on where the omicrons came from?

Thanks.

Lineage A vs B story is a red herring to be avoided. It goes nowhere but essentially the natural origin camp claim both early SARS2 lineages (A & B) emerged in the Wuhan wet market. The lab leak camp claims only lineage B is found the Wuhan wet market. But lineage A is the older variant, so SARS2 did not emerge from the Wuhan wet market. More links and info at the bottom of this post.

Almost all of these early Jan 2020 variants are basically the same virus, only separated by a few nucleotides, so no big differences. But each PCR test came from each countries patient 0. In America that is WA1 (ancestral strain of all isolated). In Germany it's called MUC-IMB-1 aka D614G variant. In Canada it was a Jan 2020 patient from Toronto. The different reaction of patients in New York, Italy Iran etc seems to be based on old age and poor health.

I think Omicron came from a combination of American deer and American deer mice. Deer are the only wildlife reservoir so the Omicron variant could radically evolve away from us humans. This was openly discussed on TWIV by virologists.

Jim keep connecting the dots. We appreciate it 😃

Question for you. Have you ever looked into the UPMC lab researcher studying coronaviruses who was murdered in what they said was a murder suicide in May 2020?

Seems very random and timing does not look good. Seems like there could be more to it. Figured I would ask since you usually get to the bottom of everything

Forgot about that

something similar happened at UNC last year, home of Ralph Baric, but had nothing to do with either Baric or the virus, but it reminds us how often academic rage takes over.

Apr-15-2020

As the world is gripped by the ongoing pandemic, many questions remain about the origin of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) virus—commonly known as the novel coronavirus.

Join Epoch Times senior investigative reporter Joshua Philipp as he explores the known facts surrounding the CCP virus and the global pandemic it caused.

In his investigation, Philipp explores the scientific data, and interviews top scientists and national security experts. And while the mystery surrounding the virus's origin remains, much is learned about the CCP's cover-up that led to the pandemic and the threat it poses to the world.

Arrest Walensky, Birx, Fauci, Daszak and all DOD, CIA, CDC, NIH, WHO, FDA and big pharma and big tech. executives involved.

Fraud and homicide are not included in the total immunity from legal liability agreement under the PREP Act for the big Pharma criminals!

Nuremberg Code and RICO laws apply now! The DOJ better wake the Fk Up and get busy!
