The genesis of a pandemic.

The #Corona crisis began with a panopticon of absurd events, improbable coincidences and outright lies.

Time for a review of the impossibilities.

A thread

1/ At the end of December 2019, Wenliang, an eye doctor from Wuhan, noticed an allegedly unusual incidence of pneumonia. It remains a mystery what is unusual about 44 patients in a city with over 8 million citizens during winter. https://www.who.int/csr/don/05-january-2020-pneumonia-of-unkown-cause-china/en/

Pneumonia of unknown cause – China

https://www.who.int/csr/don/05-january-2020-pneumonia-of-unkown-cause-china/en/

2/ On Jan. 5, WHO informs for the first time about a pneumonia of unknown cause, which it can clarify by 7 January. The virus is believed to be a close relative of SARS. A fish market allegedly is the origin. The #Zoonosis legend, unproven until today, is born.

3/ On Jan. 10, the first gene sequence of the virus today called #SARS-CoV2 appears at http://virological.org , and on Jan. 12, 4 more sequences are published by @edwardcholmes in the GISAID (Global Initiative on Sharing All Influenza Data) database. http://virological.org/t/novel-2019-coronavirus-genome/319

4/ As early as January 13, just a single day later, WHO accepts Mr. #Drosten|s PCR testing protocol as gold standard.

https://www.who.int/docs/default-source/coronaviruse/wuhan-virus-assay-v1991527e5122341d99287a1b17c111902.pdf

5/ On January 21, Corman, Drosten, Koopmanns, Landt and others submit the now highly controversial #PCR test protocol ( https://cormandrostenreview.com ) for detection of the new #coronavirus to Eurosurveillance.

https://www.eurosurveillance.org/content/10.2807/1560-7917.ES.2020.25.3.2000045#r2

6/ Eurosurveillance, a journal whose editors coincidentally includes Mr. Drosten, takes only a single day for the peer review process and publishes the hastily compiled PCR protocol on January 22. https://twitter.com/goddeketal/status/1346428529664290816?s=20

https://twitter.com/goddeketal/status/1346428529664290816?s=20

7/ Unprecedented: Within a maximum of three days (January 10 - 13), Mr. Drosten, together with the owner of TIB Molbiol (a Berlin based manufacturer for #PCR tests), develops the perfect test for a supposedly entirely new virus the world hasn't seen yet! Wow.

8/ Impossible: As early as January 10, 3 days before, Landt's company, TIB-Molbiol, had a fully functional test kit ready and began shipping it all over the world. A hell of a guy, that Mr. Landt!

9/ On Jan. 24, Chinese scientists, including a certain George Gao (director of CCDC), published an article at the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) describing the clinical symptoms of pneumonia caused by corona. https://www.nejm.org/doi/10.1056/NEJMoa2001017

A Novel Coronavirus from Patients with Pneumonia in China, 2019 | NEJM

https://www.nejm.org/doi/10.1056/NEJMoa2001017

10/ Preposterous nonsense. After all, there is no clinically specific manifestation of Covid19 disease that is in any way distinguishable from influenza. But it will be the basis for countless horror stories spread by the media.

https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&u=https://primary-hospital-care.ch/article/doi/phc-d.2020.10323

11/ Is it coincidence that exactly the same Mr. Gao, author of more heavyweight #Corona studies, becomes a member of the German Leopoldina in June 2020?

Maybe we should read the «recommendations» of the Leopoldina again.

https://www.leopoldina.org/mitgliederverzeichnis/mitglieder/member/Member/show/george-f-gao/

12/ At the same time as the publication, Wuhan begins building two emergency clinics that will be up and running in a whopping 7 days. The media are enthusiastic.

However, hardly noticed, the first one is shut down just one month later.

https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&u=https://www.n-tv.de/panorama/Wuhan-schliesst-erste-Notfallklinik-wieder-article21615368.html

13/ Meanwhile, social media are flooded with movie-like footage. Images of ruthless disease control measures are being circulated around the globe. Pure fear is racing like wildfire through the editorial offices of all media outlets, major and minor. https://twitter.com/Bobby_Network/status/1361395204767547395

14/ On January 27, the first Corona case is confirmed at Webasto (an automotive supplier) near Munich. This is the origin of all measures to come, because later the legend of asymptomatic transmission will be based on this case.

https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&u=https://www.tagesspiegel.de/wirtschaft/webasto-mitarbeiter-infiziert-wie-deutsche-firmen-ihre-mitarbeiter-vor-dem-coronavirus-schuetzen/25478104.html

15/ A mere 3 days later, Drosten, together with physicians from a clinic in Munich, published a brief report to the prestigious NEJM, which can be considered the scientific foundation of this legend. https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2001468

Transmission of 2019-nCoV Infection from an Asymptomatic Contact in Germany | NEJM

https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2001468

16/ Needless to say, it later turns out that the index patient, a business woman from China, was ill indeed and prepared herself for the working day with mundane paracetamol. But the story is now out in the world.

https://www.nejm.org/doi/suppl/10.1056/NEJMc2001468/suppl_file/nejmc2001468_appendix.pdf

17/ It only took 30 days for:
• the staging of a health crisis,
• a rushed PCR protocol,
• the production of suitable test kits at almost magical speed and
• the postulation of exceptional virological and clinical attributes.

18/ R. E. Hope-Simpson, a British physician, studied influenza for almost 50 years. His work culminated in the book "The Transmission of Influenza" published in 1992, without being able to present conclusive findings.
What he couldn't do in 50 years, was now possible in 30 days?

19/ What happened in the following months can only be regarded as the complete abandonment of honest science, responsible politics and critical journalism. The total collapse of our civilizational foundation.

20/ On Feb. 7, the 34-year-old eye doctor Wenliang allegedly dies from the consequences of #Covid19 himself. A disease, which in Germany, after one year and over 2 million test positives, has claimed 136 people among the under 40 year old.

https://www.dw.com/en/sierens-china-li-wenliang-a-tragic-hero/a-52373250

21/ On February 13, Drosten publicly warns: «We must prepare for a pandemic».

https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&u=https://www.tagesspiegel.de/wissen/deutscher-coronavirus-experte-wir-muessen-uns-auf-eine-pandemie-einstellen/25542906.html

22/ On Feb. 26, the NDR (German public radio) podcast appears, a boulevard talk show disguised as science talk, which allows Mr. Drosten to stage science over the course of now 76 episodes (recently alternating with Sandra Ciesek as guest). https://www.npr.org/2020/03/31/823865329/das-coronavirus-podcast-captivates-germany-with-scientific-info-on-the-pandemic

'Das Coronavirus' Podcast Captivates Germany With Scientific Info On The Pandemic

Produced by the public broadcaster NDR, the program features scientist Christian Drosten giving clear information about COVID-19, but so far it's in German only.

https://www.npr.org/2020/03/31/823865329/das-coronavirus-podcast-captivates-germany-with-scientific-info-on-the-pandemic

23/ On March 16, the British physicist Neil Ferguson published a work of epochal proportions. The prognosis: millions of dead. A key work of such shrill propaganda that it makes any political party convention look like a reputable event.

https://www.imperial.ac.uk/media/imperial-college/medicine/sph/ide/gida-fellowships/Imperial-College-COVID19-NPI-modelling-16-03-2020.pdf

24/ Around the same time - probably even earlier - the BMI (German Ministry of the Interior) hired «scientists» to create horror scenarios that would allow «measures of a preventive and repressive nature». An unbiased investigation was never intended.

https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&u=https://www.welt.de/politik/deutschland/article225864597/Interner-E-Mail-Verkehr-Innenministerium-spannte-Wissenschaftler-ein.html

25/ The minions delivered. On March 20, the DGEpi publishes a statement that is every bit as good as Ferguson's insane paper, except in length. Six thin pages are enough for the "forecast" of sheer horror.

https://www.dgepi.de/assets/Stellungnahmen/Stellungnahme2020Corona_DGEpi-21032020-v2.pdf

26/ The result is a document that is unparalleled in the history of the postwar Germany, characterized by such inhumane sentiments that it can only be perceived with disgust. In amazement, one wonders about the governments conception of democracy. https://www.bmi.bund.de/SharedDocs/downloads/DE/veroeffentlichungen/2020/corona/szenarienpapier-covid19.html

27/ However, the amazement quickly subsides once learning that the authors of the pamphlet are the German studies PhD student @ottokolbl, fervent Maoist and China lover, and the China lobbyist @mayer_iras. A scandal of epic proportions. https://twitter.com/WELTAMSONNTAG/status/1363171556730540038

https://twitter.com/WELTAMSONNTAG/status/1363171556730540038

28/ What followed was nothing but a hyperventilating fall into the abyss.

Once knowing about the beginnings, the remainder is actually only maculature. Measures, incidences, mutants or vaccines are topics we would never discuss without these lies. Never!

29/ Prosecutors and historians should deal with the motives. But the aftermath, the immeasurable collateral damage, must now be addressed by civil society. Herculean tasks lie ahead.

30/ Countless livelihoods have already been destroyed, children robbed of their childhood innocence and education. People have died alone. A totalitarian hygiene regime is breaking ground that could change the world forever and undo centuries of enlightenment.

31/ How long are members of parliament, lawyers and journalists going to hide under a rock and close their eyes to the obvious? It is time to hold them accountable.

32/ It is time to act, to take action, to ensure that our children grow up in a free, just and peaceful world, where they themselves negotiate the canon of values of their coexistence and not corrupt technocrats and power-hungry politicians.

Addendum 1/ Very interesting side-note: BioNTech, the biotech «startup» behind Pfizers vaccine, initiated their #Corona-vaccine development program (dubbed «Lightspeed») on January 16, 2020. By that date, just 45 cases of #SARSCoV2 were known. Worldwide.
