COVID-19 was created in a Lab
I posted this article, entitled “Unusual Features of the SARS-CoV-2 Genome Suggesting Sophisticated Laboratory Modification Rather Than Natural Evolution and Delineation of Its Probable Synthetic Route” on Facebook and Twitter only to discover that the posts disappeared the next day. The primary author, Li-Meng Yan (MD, PhD) originally posted the article on Twitter 14 September, only to have it disappear. Given the implications of the article, this was not unexpected. Dr Yan, a virologist, provides detailed arguments that the COVID-19 could not have evolved in a wet market. She describes certain gene sequences that do not exist in any other known...
Read MoreA Song about Lyme Disease Testing and Treatment
I wrote and recorded this song 7 years ago, and am finally getting around to posting it. I wrote it after Barbara Johnson, PhD, from the CDC wrote an article panning Dr Eva Sapi’s Advanced Labs blood test that identified Lyme spirochetes in a blood culture. Johnson apparently had a patent on another test used to diagnose Lyme disease. Sapi’s blood culture test test has now been incorporated into IgeneX, a trusted source for Lyme disease testing. Chris took those tests and they provided invaluable diagnostic information. In addition, the song was my way to object to the pervasive denial of the seriousness of Lyme disease by mainstream medicine. I was...

Read More5G and COVID-19: Feeding the “Invisible Enemy”
According to Dr. Martin Pall, PhD, Professor Emeritus of Biochemistry and Basic Medical Sciences at Washington State University, “Putting in tens of millions of 5G antennae without a single biological test of safety has got to be about the stupidest idea anyone has had in the history of the world.” When COVID-19 came to our shores, a flurry of videos appeared blaming electromagnetic frequencies (EMFs), specifically 5G, for the virus. In response, according to the April 24, 2020 edition of The New Yorker, citizens burned or destroyed more than 20 5G cell phone towers in England. Clearly, 5G does not cause COVID-19. The issue is not whether EMF causes...
Read MoreOrigins of COVID-19?
University of North Carolina (UNC) virologist, Dr Ralph Baric and colleagues wrote an article published November 2015 in Nature stating that his team had created a new chimera combining genetic material from the horseshoe bat spike with the mouse-adapted SARS-CoV backbone. Here are parts of the article. “Here we examine the disease potential of a SARS-like virus, SHC014-CoV, which is currently circulating in Chinese horseshoe bat populations. Using the SARS-CoV reverse genetics system, we generated and characterized a chimeric virus expressing the spike of bat corona virus SHC014 in a mouse-adapted SARS-Cove backbone. The...
Read MoreLet’s not Eschew the Facts
The following was published in The Union on 15 October 2019. The complexity of autism syndromes argues against easy categorizations such as “vaccines cause autism” or “vaccines don’t cause autism.” Yet the “always-safe-vaccine” meme is so entrenched in our culture that anyone who raises questions is labeled as an “anti-vaxxer.” Nothing is as simple as it seems. I understand Thomas Elias’ point in his Sept. 7 column entitled, “Violent acts only hinder anti-vaccination cause” … up to a point. In his previous April 19 column, he wrote, “Measles can kill, while vaccines never have.” That is false. Measles and vaccines can...
