This article will cover some weaknesses of the virus theory:
1) It should be possible to do direct purification of viruses from a human sample, yet, according to Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, government agencies have no record of this being done.
2) The cytopathic effects (e.g. cell death) demonstrated in cell culture experiments are never shown to be caused directly by a virus.
3) Control experiments could be done that exclude a virus as a possible cause in cell culture experiments, yet, they are not done.
4) The scientist who received the Nobel prize for the discovery of HIV says his lab never purified the virus.
1) No Direct Purification of Viruses
Christine Massey, a former bio-statistician, filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to try to determine what our public health agencies know about the COVID virus. When she made a request of the CDC, specifically asking for information related to the purification of a virus related to COVID-19, CDC replied that it had no such information:
A search of our records failed to reveal any documents pertaining to your request. Specifically, the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Disease apprises that CDC does not purify or isolate any COVID-19 virus in the manner the requestor describes.
Her request was for information specifically related to a virus purified directly from a human sample, as described below:
All studies and/or reports in the possession, custody or control of the CDC and/or the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) describing the purification of any “COVID-19? virus (including B.1.1.7”, “B.1.351”, “P.1” and any other “variant”) (via maceration, filtration and use of an ultracentrifuge; also referred to at times by some people as “isolation”), directly from a sample taken from a diseased human, where the patient sample was not first combined with any other source of genetic material (i.e. monkey kidney cells aka Vero cells; fetal bovine serum).
Massey did not stop there. She subsequently requested information from the CDC regarding HPV virus, Measles virus, MERS, Ebola or any other virus! In each case, the CDC replied it had no documents related to the purification of the specified virus and that it did not purify or isolate the virus in the manner described.
Others have filed similar requests of other agencies with the same results. Together, they have filed FOIA requests with 137 institutions from 25 countries around the world and have received no information about direct purification of SARS-CoV-2! So, it is not just that the CDC has no such information. It appears that no one has information about direct purification of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, and, perhaps, none of the viruses!
In an interview Mike Adams asked Massey what she has concluded from all of this: “We have been lied to for decades and decades. People have been getting injections for decades and decades for things that were never shown to exist.”
2) Cytopathic Effects (Cell Death) Demonstrated in Experiments May Not Be From Viruses
She goes on to clarify that there are no shortages of studies that claim to isolate viruses. However, her FOIA requests specifically ask for studies that show virus separated directly from a human sample. What is the distinction? Massey says the papers claiming to isolate viruses do no such thing. Typically, a patient sample, e.g. from a nasal swab, is added to a mixture that includes antibiotics and anti-fungals (so that bacteria and fungi are killed excluding them as a possible factor in the experiment). Also in the mixture, typically, are monkey kidney cells and human lymphoma cells. This mixture is introduced to a live cell culture. If, after several days, the cells die, the researchers claim that they have isolated a virus.
A pneumonia outbreak associated with a new coronavirus of probable bat origin is a February, 2020, paper published in Nature that claims isolation of the SARS-CoV-2 (called 2019-nCoV at the time) virus. A look at the Methods section confirms that the patient sample is mixed with a plethora of substances including “Vero E6 and Huh7 cells” so it is clearly not isolating a virus.
Massey says, “To me it is 100% clear that there is no virus. Anybody can come to this conclusion themselves just by looking at the isolation papers. Because when you see what they actually do when they say they isolated the virus … you see that it doesn’t add up.” Massey concludes that since the FOIA requests show no purified viruses and the research papers claiming to have isolated viruses are doing no such thing, that the idea of viruses is a fiction! So, why would people lie about such an important thing?
According to Adams, the virus is a good cover story: “The American Cancer Institute will not talk about the causes of cancer that are environmental which means exposure to toxins in the personal care products, … the pesticides and herbicides … the run-off from agricultural glyphosate and atrazine … we’re taking about a mass poisoning of the planet and you’re right, the so-called virus is the excuse.”
3) No Control Experiments Are Done
Dr. Stefan Lanka, provides a further critique of experiments claiming to find viruses. It would be simple to exclude a virus as a possible cause in cell culture experiments but this isn’t done in practice. As Lanka says in his paper:
Virologists primarily believe in the existence of viruses, because they add allegedly “infected” blood, saliva or other body fluids to the tissue and cell culture, and this, it must be stressed, after having withdrawn the nutrients from the respective cell culture and after having started poisoning it with toxic antibiotics. They believe that the cell culture is then killed by viruses. The key insight, however, is that the death of the tissue and cells takes place in the exact same manner when no “infected” genetic material is added at all.
4) Luc Montagnier Admits His Lab Never Purified HIV
Luc Montagnier was awarded a Nobel prize for the discovery of HIV but he admitted two things in an interview that are breathtaking:
– “I repeat we did not purify. We purified to characterize the density of the RT, which was soundly that of a retrovirus. But we didn’t take the peak…or it didn’t work…because if you purify, you damage.”
– “What we did not have, and I have always recognized it, was that it was truly the cause of AIDS.”
The same interviewer spoke with Charles Dauget, the Pasteur Institute electron microscopist and a co-author of the 1983 Montagnier paper. Dauget was asked why no EM pictures of purified HIV were published. He responded, “We have never seen virus particles in the purified virus. What we have seen all the time was cellular debris, no virus particles”.
Even Robert Gallo, Montagnier’s competitor in the bid for the Nobel prize, now seems to distance himself from the idea that it is even possible to distinguish a virus from other particles. He is one of the authors of Extracellular vesicles and viruses: Are they close relatives? In a section titled Mission (Almost) Impossible: Separation of Virions from EVs he states: “Because EVs are produced by virtually all cells, probably every viral preparation is in fact a mixture of virions and EVs. To study their respective functions, it is necessary to separate EVs and virions. This is very difficult with some viruses, such as retroviruses, because both EVs and retroviruses are comparable in size.”
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are parts of a cell that escape from the cell’s interior. Gallo is admitting that it is (almost) impossible to distinguish EVs from viral particles. If it is impossible to purify viral particles and distinguish them from other particles, why believe that there are such things as viral particles at all?
Conclusion
Are these FOIA responses enough to conclude that there really is no virus? Former Pfizer research director Dr. Michael Yeadon tells how his thinking about viruses has evolved over the course of what he describes as a fake pandemic: first he believed that there were indeed people getting sick, but not enough to necessitate lock-downs and masks. But over time he has come to realize that people do get sick with colds and flu, but, we don’t know what causes them, and it has nothing to do with respiratory viruses!
We know, now, that virologists don’t purify viruses, not in the time of AIDS and not in the time of Covid. Also, the experiments that are said to prove the existence of viruses are done without negative controls, according to Dr. Stefan Lanka, in which case there could be other causes for the observed cytopathic effects. In any case, all we have for the evidence of viruses is indirect evidence, from the cell culture experiments and from PCR testing. So, we are left with asking ourselves how good is this indirect evidence of viruses. Is it more akin to finding a dinosaur bone or to finding a unicorn horn? It’s an important question.
