28:50 Part 4 The Secret of the Wuhan P4 Laboratory
43:43 Part 5 Facing The Pandemic
The first documentary movie on the origin of CCP virus, Tracking Down the Origin of the Wuhan Coronavirus.
The CCP virus, which originated from China, has rampaged through the world and caused more than 80,000 deaths, infecting at least 1.4 million. The true number of deaths and infections is unknown due to the underreporting of cases from mainland China. In the new documentary presented by The Epoch Times and NTD, Epoch Times investigative reporter Joshua Philipp takes an in-depth look at the progression of the pandemic from January to April and leads us on a journey of discovery to bring the truth behind the matter to light. From the Huanan Seafood Market in Hubei Province to the scandals at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, from long-running experiments on viruses to military takeovers, suspicious activities arise from every corner. Through vigorous investigations and the piecing together of hidden information, the documentary will unearth a more complete understanding of the situation surrounding the rise of this pandemic.
П.С. Coronavirus: China's Great Cover-up
by Giulio Meotti
April 5, 2020 at 5:30 am
Bats were not, it seems, sold at Wuhan's seafood market. The Lancet noted in a January study that the first Covid-19 case in Wuhan had no connection to the market.
One more person has just disappeared. Ai Fen, a Chinese physician, who... claimed her bosses silenced her early warnings about coronavirus, appears to have vanished.... The journalists who saw what happened inside Wuhan have also disappeared.
"No one has been able to study it. How can you say it's not a release from a lab if you can't go to the lab? Indeed, we have seen Beijing do its best to prevent virologists and epidemiologists from actually going to Wuhan." — Gordon Chang, in Die Weltwoche, March 31, 2020.
That is another major problem. The potential major investigator on Wuhan's origin, the World Health Organization, is now accused of being "China's coronavirus' accomplice".
Why is China trafficking in dangerous viruses in the first place?
"Debate may rage over which center it is, but at this point it seems undeniable that a center has been directly involved with research on viruses, although not necessarily on the creation of a virus." — Father Renzo Milanese, AsiaNews.it, March 13, 2020.
On January 11, China's government announced that Wuhan's wet market was the origin of the coronavirus epidemic. The same Chinese regime later claimed that the virus "may not have originated in China", and later still, Chinese officials began claiming that US soldiers brought the virus to Wuhan. What respected scientist or institution can now trust anything that comes out of China?
We have been paying dearly for China's lies.
"This is one of the worst cover-ups in human history, and now the world is facing a global pandemic," said Rep. Michael T. McCaul, the ranking Republican member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, before the US intelligence community concluded, in a classified report to the White House, that China has concealed the origin and extent of the catastrophic global coronavirus outbreak.
The Chinese Communist Party's "failure has unleashed a global contagion killing thousands", wrote Cardinal Charles Maung Bo, president of the Federation of Asian Bishops' Conferences, on April 1. "As we survey the damage done to lives around the world, we must ask who is responsible?"
"... there is one government that has primary responsibility for what it has done and what it has failed to do, and that is the CCP [Chinese Communist Party] regime in Beijing. Let me be clear — it is the CCP that has been responsible, not the people of China... Lies and propaganda have put millions of lives around the world in danger... In recent years, we have seen an intense crackdown on freedom of expression in China. Lawyers, bloggers, dissidents and civil society activists have been rounded up and have disappeared."
One more person has just disappeared: Ai Fen, a Chinese physician who was head of the emergency department at Wuhan Central Hospital, had worked with the late Dr. Li Wenliang. Ai, who claimed that her bosses silenced her early warnings about coronavirus, appears to have vanished. Her whereabouts, according to 60 Minutes Australia, are unknown. The journalists who saw what happened inside Wuhan have also disappeared. Caixin Global reported that the laboratories which sequenced the coronavirus in December were ordered by Chinese officials to hand over or destroy the samples and not release their findings. "If I had known what was to happen, I would not have cared about the reprimand, I would have fucking talked about it to whoever, where ever I could", Ai Fen said in an interview in March. Those were her last recorded words.
There is no record at all, however, about how this pandemic began. Wet market? A cave full of bats? Pangolins? Or a bio-weapons laboratory? No foreign doctors, journalists, analysts or international observers are present in Wuhan. Why, if the virus came out of a wet market or a cave, did China suppress inquiries to such an extent? Why, in December, did Beijing order Chinese scientists to destroy proof about the virus? Why did Chinese officials claim that US soldiers brought the virus to Wuhan? Why should it be scandalous that a US President calls a virus that began in China a "Chinese virus"?
Who announced on January 11 that Wuhan's wet market was the origin of this epidemic? The Chinese regime. It was later discovered that the first known case of coronavirus traced back to November 17, 2019.
The same Chinese regime later claimed that this coronavirus "may not have originated in China". What respected scientist or institution can now trust anything that comes out of China?
Many leading scientists have dismissed the claim that the Covid-19 virus was an engineered pathogen. This conclusion was seemingly based on the fact that Wuhan has two major virus research labs: the Wuhan Center for Disease Control and Prevention, which is apparently less than a mile from the market, and the Wuhan Institute of Virology, a biosafety level 4 (BSL-4) laboratory, handling the world's most deadly pathogens, located just seven miles from the market. The story was immediately and emphatically trashed as a "conspiracy theory".
Those scientists claim that the virus likely originated among wildlife before spreading to humans, possibly through a food market in Wuhan. They say that, through genetic sequencing, they have identified the culprit for Covid-19 as a bat coronavirus. End of story? Science, thankfully, begins by asking questions and then seeking answers.
Bats were not, it seems, sold at Wuhan's wet market. The Lancet noted in a January study that the first Covid-19 case in Wuhan had no connection to the market. The Lancet's paper, written by Chinese researchers from several institutions, detailed that 13 of the 41 first cases had no link to the market. "That's a big number, 13, with no link," commented Daniel Lucey, an infectious disease specialist at Georgetown University. So how did the epidemic start?
"Now it seems clear that [the] seafood market is not the only origin of the virus, but to be honest we still do not know where the virus came from now", notes Bin Cao, pulmonary specialist at Capital Medical University, and the corresponding author of the Lancet article.
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has said that China's Communist Party is withholding information about the coronavirus.
If we do not know, it is necessary be open to all possibilities.
"Less than 300 yards from the seafood market is the Wuhan branch of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention" wrote David Ignatius of the Washington Post.
"Researchers from that facility and the nearby Wuhan Institute of Virology have posted articles about collecting bat coronaviruses from around China, for study to prevent future illness. Did one of those samples leak, or was hazardous waste deposited in a place where it could spread?".
"Collecting viruses" presumably does not exclude the possibility of a "leaked virus". Worse, if China is not able to protect its laboratories, it needs to be held accountable and made to pay for the devastating global damage.
"Experts know the new coronavirus is not a bioweapon. They disagree on whether it could have leaked from a research lab", stated The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists. Professor Richard Ebright of Rutgers University's Waksman Institute of Microbiology, and a major biosecurity expert, agreed with the Nature Medicine authors' argument that the coronavirus was not manipulated by humans. But Ebright does think it possible that the Covid-19 started as an accidental leak from a laboratory, such as one of the two in Wuhan, which are known to have been studying bat viruses:
"Virus collection or animal infection with a virus having the transmission characteristics of the outbreak virus would pose substantial risk of infection of a lab worker, and from the lab worker, the public."
Ebright has also claimed that bat coronaviruses are studied in Wuhan at Biosafety Level 2, "which provides only minimal protection" compared with the top BSL-4.
"We don't know what happened, but there are a lot of reasons to believe that this indeed was a release of some sort", China expert Gordon Chang said to Die Weltwoche.
"No one has been able to study it. How can you say it's not a release from a lab if you can't go to the lab? Indeed, we have seen Beijing do its best to prevent virologists and epidemiologists from actually going to Wuhan. The World Health Organization team went to Wuhan for like half a day with only part of the team."
That is another major problem. The potential major investigator of the Wuhan coronavirus pandemic's origin, the World Health Organization (WHO), is now accused of being "China's coronavirus' accomplice". As late as January 14, the WHO quoted Chinese health officials claiming there had been no human transmissions of the coronavirus within the country yet.
China poses a biosecurity risks for the entire planet. One year before the first coronavirus case was identified in Wuhan, US Customs and Border Protection agents at Detroit Metro Airport stopped a Chinese biologist with three vials labeled "Antibodies" in his luggage. According to an unclassified FBI tactical intelligence report obtained by Yahoo News:
"Inspection of the writing on the vials and the stated recipient led inspection personnel to believe the materials contained within the vials may be viable Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) materials."
Why is China trafficking in dangerous viruses in the first place?
According to Yanzhong Huang, a senior fellow for Global Health at the Council on Foreign Relations:
"A safety breach at a Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention lab is believed to have caused four suspected SARS cases, including one death, in Beijing in 2004. A similar accident caused 65 lab workers of Lanzhou Veterinary Research Institute to be infected with brucellosis in December 2019. In January 2020, a renowned Chinese scientist, Li Ning, was sentenced to 12 years in prison for selling experimental animals to local markets".
In February, Botao Xiao and Lei Xiao, from Guangzhou's South China University of Technology, wrote in a research paper:
"In addition to origins of natural recombination and intermediate host the killer coronavirus probably originated from a laboratory in Wuhan. Safety level [sic] may need to be reinforced in high risk biohazardous laboratories".
Xiao later told the Wall Street Journal that he had withdrawn the paper because it "was not supported by direct proofs".
Chinese laboratory mistakes have happened before. By 2010, researchers published as fact: "The most famous case of a released laboratory strain is the re-emergent H1N1 influenza-A virus which was first observed in China in May of 1977 and in Russia shortly thereafter". The virus may have escaped from a lab attempting to prepare a vaccine in response to the U.S. swine flu pandemic alert.
In 1999 the most senior defector in the US from the Soviet biological warfare program, Ken Alibek, revealed that Soviet officials concluded that China had suffered a serious accident at one of its secret biological plants, causing two major epidemics of fever that had swept China in the late 1980s. "Our analysts", Alibek stated in his book, Biohazard, "concluded that they were caused by an accident in a lab where Chinese scientists were weaponizing viral diseases".
In 2004, the World Health Organization disclosed that the latest outbreak of "severe acute respiratory syndrome" (SARS) in China involved two researchers who were working with the virus in a Beijing research lab. The WHO denounced Chinese breaches of safety procedures, and director of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, Li Liming, resigned. Science magazine also stated that "for the third time in less than a year, an outbreak of SARS seems to have originated from a failure in laboratory containment".
Moreover, three years ago, when China opened the laboratory in Wuhan, Tim Trevan, a Maryland biosafety specialist, told Nature that he worried about the safety of the building because "structures where everyone feels free to speak up and openness of information are important." Free speech and open information: exactly what Chinese regime fought against in December and January.
A Chinese video about a key researcher in Wuhan, Tian Junhua, which was released a few weeks before the outbreak in Wuhan, shows Chinese researchers handling bats that contained viruses. In the video (produced by China Science Communication, run by the China Association for Science and Technology), Tian says:
"I am not a doctor, but I work to cure and save people... I am not a soldier, but I work to safeguard an invisible national defense line".
Tian is also reported as having said:
"I can feel the fear: the fear of infections and the fear of getting lost. Because of the fear, I take every step extremely cautiously. The more scared I feel, the more care I take in executing every detail. Because the process of you finding the viruses is also when you can be exposed to them the easiest. I do hope these virus samples will only be preserved for scientific research and will never be used in real life".
For a month, the Chinese Communist Party, instead of fighting the contagion, did everything possible to censor all information about the Covid-19 outbreak. After President Xi Jinping declared "a people's war" on the epidemic on January 20, Chinese security services pursued 5,111 cases of "fabricating and deliberately disseminating false and harmful information". The Chinese Human Rights Defenders documented several types of punishment, including detention, disappearance, fines, interrogations, forced confessions and "educational reprimand".
After that, China lied about the real number of deaths. There are photographs of long lines of stacked urns greeting family members of the dead at funeral homes in Wuhan. Outside one funeral home, trucks shipped in 2,500 urns. According to Chinese official figures, 2,548 people in Wuhan have died of the Covid-19. According to an analysis by Radio Free Asia, seven funeral homes in Wuhan were each handing out 500 funeral urns containing remains for 12 days, from March 23 to the traditional tomb-sweeping festival of April 5, a time that would indicate up to 42,000 urns, or ten times higher than the official figure.
In February, it was reported that Wuhan crematoriums were working around the clock to cope with the massive influx of infected bodies. Wuhan's officials are apparently pushing relatives of the victims to bury the dead "quickly and quietly".
"Natural virus" does not exclude its fallout from a laboratory where pathogens are collected and studied. The Nature Medicine authors "leave us where we were before: with a basis to rule out [a coronavirus from] a lab construct, but no basis to rule out a lab accident", Professor Ebright commented.
"Debate may rage over which center it is, but at this point it seems undeniable that a center has been directly involved with research on viruses, although not necessarily on the creation of a virus" wrote Father Renzo Milanese, a longtime Catholic missionary in Hong Kong.
"In other words, the virus passed from a research center in Wuhan early on. More importantly there is also no question that the authorities were aware of the dangerousness of the virus, that they did not inform anyone and that they tried to keep the facts hidden".
US Senator Josh Hawley has introduced a resolution calling for an international investigation into China's handling of the spread of the virus. According to Hawley:
"The Chinese Communist Party was aware of the reality of the virus as early as December but ordered laboratories to destroy samples and forced doctors to keep silent. It is time for an international investigation into the role their cover-up played in the spread of this devastating pandemic".
Admitting a fault, as the Japanese did after the Fukushima nuclear accident in 2011, might be one way for a country to be accepted again by the international community. Censoring, denying and covering up, as China is doing, will not.
"China claims that the deadly virus did not escape from its biolab," said a China specialist with the Population Research Institute, Steven W. Mosher. "Fine. Prove it by releasing the research records of the Wuhan lab".

In February, it was reported that Wuhan crematoriums were working around the clock to cope with the massive influx of infected bodies. Wuhan's officials are apparently pushing relatives of the victims to bury the dead "quickly and quietly".
"Natural virus" does not exclude its fallout from a laboratory where pathogens are collected and studied. The Nature Medicine authors "leave us where we were before: with a basis to rule out [a coronavirus from] a lab construct, but no basis to rule out a lab accident", Professor Ebright commented.
"Debate may rage over which center it is, but at this point it seems undeniable that a center has been directly involved with research on viruses, although not necessarily on the creation of a virus" wrote Father Renzo Milanese, a longtime Catholic missionary in Hong Kong.
"In other words, the virus passed from a research center in Wuhan early on. More importantly there is also no question that the authorities were aware of the dangerousness of the virus, that they did not inform anyone and that they tried to keep the facts hidden".
US Senator Josh Hawley has introduced a resolution calling for an international investigation into China's handling of the spread of the virus. According to Hawley:
"The Chinese Communist Party was aware of the reality of the virus as early as December but ordered laboratories to destroy samples and forced doctors to keep silent. It is time for an international investigation into the role their cover-up played in the spread of this devastating pandemic".
Admitting a fault, as the Japanese did after the Fukushima nuclear accident in 2011, might be one way for a country to be accepted again by the international community. Censoring, denying and covering up, as China is doing, will not.
"China claims that the deadly virus did not escape from its biolab," said a China specialist with the Population Research Institute, Steven W. Mosher. "Fine. Prove it by releasing the research records of the Wuhan lab".

3)Плацебо применять приходится (хоть людей и жалко) - и именно во время эпидемии.Иначе ничего доказать в смысле эффективности лечения невозможно.Так и будете выбирать между хлороквином и минимум еще одним "азо..." далее не помню) перспективным препаратом.
4)Массовые карантины приносят больше вреда, чем пользы.В частноости, насчет школ - лишать миллионы детей возможноти образования и социализации (а ее онлайн-обучением не заменить) - преступление в отношении будущего страны.А полный паралич производящей экономики вообще недопустим - так и до голода доиграться можно.

Потому что приведённое им высказывание, есть ни что иное как нарушения свобод и прав человека, что не может не возмущать. Потому что чтобы лично Вы или какой то чиновник, не считали о действии данного препарата, человек как существо свободное, имеет право сам сделать свой выбор, а именно то, по какому протоколу он хочется лечиться. И никто не должен иметь право ему это запрещать.

Куча людей, пред- и несколько после пенсионного возраста, которые работали до карантина, скорее всего уже никогда не найдут работу в своей жизни. Хотя бы потому, что количество рабочих мест неизбежно сократится. И это существенно повлияет на то, как они смогут провести старость. Вот тут сокращение жизни может быть более, чем серьезным, увы.

Date: 2020-04-15 01:42 am (UTC)2. А это откуда вы взяли? Хоть бы источник указали. Этот препарат принимают именно в качестве профилактики - перед поездкой или во время поездки в страну, где распространена малярия. А также люди его годами пьют от ревматоидного артрита. Или сезонно - против аллергии на солнце.
Антивирусные препараты требуют применения и эффективны в начале болезни, чтобы уменьшить вирусную нагрузку на организм. В реанимациях, по данным врачей, вирус уже не обнаруживается, умирают люди от последствий и осложнений болезни Ковид-19.
Сначала гидроскихлорокин (в большей степени, чем хлорокин) показал отличные результаты инвитро. И затем - на группе добровольцев из 24 человек, затем 80, затем более 1000 человек. Результаты опубликованы. Институт Марселя продолжает публикации ежедневно - данные по тестированным, пролеченным по схеме гидроксихлорокин плюс азитромицин, данные по % смертности. Почитайте первоисточник - одного из лучших мировых специалистов по инфекционным болезням, публикации профессора Раульта
3. Что значит «плацебо применять приходится??» Врачи вообще-то клятву Гиппократа дают...
Азитромицин - это антибиотик, применяемый при воспалениях лёгких.
4. Если вы о социализации ...вы представьте ситуацию - ребёнок идёт в школу, заражается там вирусом, приносит его домой, заражает маму, папу, бабушку ... и кто-нибудь или мама, или папа, или бабушка, или все они попадают в реанимацию и медленно умирают через 20 дней, задыхаясь.. замечательная судьба ждёт этого «социализированного» ребёнка! Я уж не говорю о том, что и дети могут погибнуть! Когда президент страны говорит об открытии школ в стране, где нет массового тестирования, нет масок, нет доступного лечения - вы не считаете, что этот президент намеревается подвергнуть огромному риску граждан страны? А паралич присходит не от продуманно и грамотного карантина - одной из наиболее действенных мер в борьбе с эпидемиями. А от того, что его ввели слишком поздно. Или отменили слишком рано - и получили вторую волну эпидемии, например
Кстати, Раульт был изначально против (и сейчас) тотального карантина. Он говорит именно о массовом тестировании, выявлении, изоляции и немедленном лечении больных Ковид-19.

рубрика Хлорохин - Побочные действия.
Или возьмитее коробочку с таблетками хлорохина (резохин, хлороквин) и почитайте инструкцию внутри (такой листок имеется в каждой упаковке любого лекарства)
2)Кстати - препаратов вообще без побочного действия не бывает (даже пенициллин опасен для аллергиков).И хлорохиновая профилактика малярии - не исключение.
3)Плацебо применяют при испытании нового противоинфекционного (о противоопухолевых пока не говорим) препарата ВСЕГДА.И клятва Гиппократа тут ни при чем (кстати, никому не мешало бы освежить в памяти ее подлинный текст).Началось сие, насколько мне известно, в 1891 г - и благодаря принятому с немалыми колебаниями трудному решению уже в первые два года были спасены тысячи больных дифтерией детей.
4)Грамотный карантин - это точечный - прежде всего дома престарелых, одинокие старики и т.п.
А я ведь написал "Массовые карантины приносят больше вреда, чем пользы".Так что Ваш гнев не по адресу.
5)"Отменили слишком рано" - Вы всерьез полагаете, что можно держать в жестком карантине десятки миллионов людей год-два?.Кроме того - благоволите принять во внимание, что вторая волна эпидемии (а за ней не исключается и третья) возникает не из-за незаметной до поры цепочки последовательных заражений (именно эту цепочку стараются прервать карантином), а из-за того, что вирус у некоторых лиц сохранется очень длительно без каких-либо симптомов и даже при отрицательных результатах специфических тестов.Выявить таких лиц невозможноп - пока они не заразят кого-либо.
6)Единственно надежной профилактической мерой при таких эпидемиях (респираторные с преобладанием легких случаев) является массовая вакцинация.
7)Насчет "смертельнного вируса" - смертельный примерно как корь для невакцинироанных и не болевших в детстве взрослых.

Главное - а альтернатива какая? Можете назвать иной препарат? Который «более лучше» помогает? Или «менее хуже» на здоровье отражается? Огласите весь список. Чем собираетесь лечить больных с Ковид-19, пока вакцину не создали? Ах, ну да, над ними же можно опыты проводить, плацебо давать.
Настоятельно рекомендую почитать первоисточник

Ну, а тяжелое течение - дело другое.Там всё используется - и противовирусные препараты, и трансфузия плазмы выздоровевших от коронавирусв, и реанимационные мероприятия.Но это очеень небольшая доля заболевших - не более 3 процентов у нас.
И результаты достаточно приличные - до сих пор из 12 700 заболевших (со всеми степенямми тяжести) умерли 141.В том числе старше 75 лет - 114.Хотелось бы, конечно, ччтобы никто не умирал, но это нереально.

Психоз бывает именно хлорохиновый - и настоящий, к счастью кратковременный.
И "открыть коробочку" - решать, какая у Вас из аптеки коробочка, должен врач.А сведения о побочныых явлениях нужны и врачу, и больному.Потому что иногда время не ждет.
Насчет плацебо - если бы немец Беринг в 1891 г не оставил без введения противодифтерийной сыворотки группу больных детей как "контроль", то эта сыворотка еще пару лет оставалась бы без признания и сколько-нибудь широкогого применения.Потому что тогда многие возражали - до этого никогда препараты из крови лошади больным не вводили, а эксперименты позволяли заподозрить возможность вредного действия.Но Беринг решился (в отличие от одновременно работавшеего француза Ру) - и его работа оказалась безусловно доказательной.И противодифтерийная сыворотка начала свое благодетельное шествие по миру.
А нам осталось вспоминать - и заодно задуматься о разнице между немцами и французами в научном поведении.

По ссылке, которую я вам дала, на двух языках, фр. и английском, подробно объясняются подходы к применению гидроксихлорокина, а также сравниваются результаты лечения этим препаратом с результатами лечения другими препаратами, на сегодняшний день протоколов лечения 5 (пять), которые, и все являются экспериментальными, не так ли?

Date: 2020-04-17 02:42 pm (UTC)Идея именно в том, чтобы лечить болезнь на ранних стадиях и исключить риск осложнений, а тем самым исключить (или максимально снизить) количество попаданий в реанимацию, из которой (не вперёд ногами) выходят только 20-25%.
Лечение антивирусными препаратами снижает так называемую вирусную нагрузку на организм. На 7-10 день такие препараты уже бесполезны. Вопрос стоит именно так: какой протокол, какой из антивирусных препаратов (КОТОРЫЕ И ДОЛЖНЫ НАЗНАЧАТЬСЯ С МОМЕНТА ВЫЯВЛЕНИЯ ЗАБОЛЕВАНИЯ - не важно, есть симптомы или их вообще нет) наиболее эффективен? Наименее токсичен? Если мы сравним все опубликованные исследования (хлорокин, гидроксихлорокин, гидроксихлорокин плюс азитромицин, Калетра, (лопинавир-ритонавир), плазма выздоровевших пациентов и др) то окажется, что лучшие результаты этих экспериментальных полевых исследований у комбинации
гидроксихлорокин плюс азитромицин. Если снижать вирусную нагрузку у бессимптомных пациентов, то это также даст прекрасные результаты для борьбы с эпидемией - представьте, что носитель инфекции носит ее не 20 дней, а 5. Сидит на карантине не 20 дней, а 5. Для экономики неплохо, как считаете? И Таки почитайте первоисточник. Там не мнение, но факты, цифры, доказательства, сравнительный анализ...

И обещаемые Вашим "первоисточником" прекрасные результаты (у изобретаателей всегда всё прекрасно!) - все в будущем.Что-то никто другой пока ничего прекрасного в ходе нынешней пандемии не продемонстрировал (только на днях что-то проклюнулось с препаратом фирмы Gilead).А ведь возможность была - если не в Европе, так в Азии, где на риски смотрят гораздо спокойнее.Полагаю, такое понятие как "невоспроизводимый результат" Вам известно.
