Virus deniers are akin to Flat-Earthers

Virus deniers are akin to Flat-Earthers.

Virus deniers are akin to Flat-Earthers. Both ideas are false and the people who promote them have no idea how science or the natural world works because all they have is unanswered questions in their mind. Virus deniers claim germs are not real, genetic scientists, virologists, and biochemists are liars, and the whole world of science is mistaken. They claim no virus sample has ever been isolated or purified because they are grown in cell cultures and therefore exposed to other genetic material. 

 

The claims of virus deniers are false and they promote a psyop that undermines the examination of vaccine safety. They deny Fauci’s responsibility for funding gain of function experiments and the release of SARS-2. They deny the vaccine failure which caused the 1918 Spanish flu. They deny that smallpox was spread in the late 1800s by mandatory vaccines and only eradicated after using good sanitation and isolation. They deny that the polio vaccine-virus mutated to become viable which resulted in a disease that is now twice as deadly as the original. They deny that vaccine-pressure caused measles-virus-mutation whereby measles can now be caught twice and has become resistant to the vaccine.

 

Virus deniers claim that, what we see as viruses is just a natural cell expression in response to antibiotics and other pharmaceuticals used in the growth culture mix. We should all understand that no drug used by any genetic scientist during the culture of viruses has a genetic code, so the drugs used during the culture of viruses cannot add a new genetic code into the mix. Additionally, they deny studies in which samples were genome sequenced without passage through culture cells.

 

It is accepted by all avenues of medical science that, any genetic material, RNA or proteins, made by a cell must originate from that cell DNA, unless supplemental genetic code is introduced from outside. Viruses do not have animal genetic code. Every organism, be it animal, plant, bacteria, archaea or virus has its own very specific genetic code. The genetic code of an organism is the template for only that one organism.

 

Virus deniers claim viruses are exosomes. However, exosomes can never be confused with viruses, even though they have a similar visual appearance, because exosomes have the genetic code of the host cell and can be used as indicators of epigenetic expression of the host, while viruses have a separate genetic code that does not originate from the host. The foreign genetic code in viruses proves they are invaders from outside. This is a very clear distinction between exosomes and viruses which proves, without a shadow of doubt, that viruses are not exosomes nor are they any other micro-vesicle that originates from the host DNA. 

 

While human DNA does have some ‘endogenous retroviral’ DNA in it, this viral DNA comes from retrovirus attacks which infected humans millions of years ago and those retroviruses have now become incorporated into the human genome. Humans are still being attacked in modern times by retroviruses. There are only five retroviruses that infect man but even if we are infected by one and we incorporate new retroviral genetic code into our genome it is known that we were not born with it and it came from an external source.

 

There can be no doubt, viruses that cause illness such as colds, flu, measles, polio, smallpox and many other diseases in man, do not originate from man’s DNA because the genetic code for viruses does not match human genetic code.

 

Virus deniers claim that germs are not real but there are many videos showing germs, such as, Malaria parasites invading human red blood cells, a white blood cell chasing bacteria, and bacteria attacking white blood cells.

 

Virus deniers say that the PCR is used to sequence genomes and is therefore unreliable but this is false. It is not possible to use the PCR to sequence genetic material because the PCR is a genetic material doubling tool and nothing more.

 

Virus deniers claim that genome sequences come from lots of small snippets that are assembled according to a reference library but that is not true in every case. Many examples of full-length ‘de novo’ sequencing exist, which is how genetic mutations are found. Sophisticated de novo sequencing platforms are used for this purpose.

 

Virus deniers say that viruses have never been isolated and they will use historical science studies in support of that claim because modern genetic sequencing of viruses is in fact done using single whole viruses, without the need for cultivation first. This system is called ‘single-cell genome sequencing’ and enables scientists to sample the genetics of one complete virus without cultivation. Using a single cell, whole genome, next-generation sequencing platform enabled the millions of organisms in seawater to be sequenced by inspecting each one, one at a time, individually. Modern genetic scientists use ‘droplet microfluidics’ to deep sequence single DNA molecules

 

Virus deniers say viruses are not contagious and as proof they use the fact that during some trials, scientists were often not able to infect participants with disease, but again, they are misrepresenting the facts. The article they cite is from 1919 and explains that the virus may not have been “carried over, or the path of infection is quite different from what it is commonly thought to be.” Virus deniers lack understanding of pathogenicity which relies upon many factors, including the functional integrity of each gene from the virus and the proteins present in the host. They also deny science studies like AIDS is caused by HIV, and infection of hamsters with SARS-CoV-2, in which viral pathogenesis is proven.

 

Virus deniers use Freedom of Information Requests (FOIR), like the one published by fluoridefreepeel.ca as proof that SARS-CoV-2 has not been isolated and proven as pathogenic but those requests have been sent to government departments or other establishments that do not hold the information being asked for. Why did fluoridefreepeel.ca send their FOIRs to institutions that do not hold the relevant information? Is this done on purpose because replies saying “no information is held” fuel the psyop? Neither hospitals, the fire brigade, the post service, DHL, Primary Schools, Taxi offices, or any other random institutions  hold information concerning the isolation of viruses. However, It is very simple to search science studies using Google Scholar with “SARS-CoV-2 isolation” to find 150,000 references or with “SARS-CoV-2 pathogenicity” to find 30,000 references, or with “virus genome sequencing” to find 2.7 million references.

 

Virus deniers use the story concerning Stefan Lanka and the German High Court as proof that the measles virus doesn’t exist, but again, that is a misrepresentation of the truth. The court expert said of the six studies that David Bardens submitted, when viewed together they proved the existence of a virus that caused measles, the diameter of the virus, and Koch’s postulates were satisfied. The judge said it would not matter if Bardens brought 600 studies, they would never satisfy Lanka and Lanka had sole rights in deciding who won, not a court. Lanka made the rules in such a way that no one could ever satisfy them and he had total control over payment of the award.

 

Virus deniers are very mixed up, they are either living in the past with the Flat-Earthers who really have no idea what they are talking about, or, as some Flat-Earthers do, they promote an obvious psyop knowingly. Either way, virus deniers promote a false narrative and do no good.
