Hello John and Doves,
The birdflu is in the news a lot
now. And there is a vaccine for this.
The EU has 40 million doses lined up
- when needed. It's mainly for 'at risk' people in
certain professions - those that deal with animals.
Looks like Finland will be the first
to get this vaccine to 'at risk' people - mink and fox
farm workers, among others. They are especially
concerned about the mink - and their relation to ferrets -
ferrets are used in flu research because of their use in
human flu research. They don't want the H5N1 to mutate
from mink to ferrets - because ferrets are so like humans
when it comes to flu - so that could start a human flu
pandemic.
I found an article that stated that
back in 2011, two labs had done gain-of-function and created
an H5N1 virus that spreads between ferrets! So that
virus already exists. It's been thirteen years since
that research - bet they have an H5N1 that spreads between
humans now - probably an NIAID research gain-of-function
project that American taxpayers paid for.
In this letter I wrote a little bit
about CDC lab "accidents" and the Canada BSL-4 incident with
the Chinese. Also, I wrote about a federal lab sending
Spanish Flu to health clinics by 'accident'.
And the NIH said that they found
infectious H5N1 virus in pasteurized milk. I question
anything they say - especially on this virus surviving after
pasteurization. And I question WHY would they even
report this? Tests have been done ad nauseam on
pasteurization of dairy milk and virus viruses - even H5N1;
and even the NIH admits our milk supply is safe from H5N1
after pasteurization. So why report this pointless
research? Since I don't trust them, I think they are
up to something.....with our milk supply.
The FDA is preparing for a bird flu
pandemic - vaccine, antivirals, testing, etc. The
testing is with the infamous PCR technology. Lots of
false positives. Finding 'bits and pieces' of a virus
is NOT positive for finding a virus. Too, too
sensitive and very inaccurate. But that's their gold
standard for Covid-19 and Bird flu...and probably Monkeypox
or anything else they've picked....
IF this becomes THEIR next pandemic
- they will get the numbers (again) with the PCR
tests. And they'll add 'scare tactics' that more
testing showed H5N1 infectious viruses in pasteurized milk
and cooked burgers! And they'll cull the dairy cows
and chicken farms as they "try to contain the
spread".
European Union Orders 40 Million
Bird Flu Vaccines:
"The European Union ordered more
than 40 million bird flu vaccines from manufacturer CSL Ltd,
as governments step up efforts to prevent the potential
spread of the virus to people."
The virus "jumped from infecting
millions of birds over the past two years to now sickening
dairy cattle, prompting fears that the disease could spread
further."
The EU will get 665,000 doses (of
vaccine) for 15 member states "with an option for a further
40 million doses if needed."
The doses are for those with the
biggest risk - poultry farm workers and veterinarians.
"..more than 80 dairy herds and
three dairy workers have tested positive for the virus since
late March according to the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention." The U.S. government have a contract for
4.8 million doses of the CSL vaccine.
Looks like Finland will be the first
country to offer the vaccine to people at risk. They
will offer it to "poultry farmers, veterinarians, scientists
who study the virus, and people who work on fur farms
housing animals like mink and fox and where there have been
outbreaks."
The vaccines will be available as
soon as they arrive - 20,000 doses. The virus isn't
very good at infecting humans or spreading among them - but
that could change.
Finland had a "highly pathogenic
avian influenza, H5N1, hit about 24 farms (mink and fox) -
they found lots of dead birds and dead and dying foxes and
mink. They noted the spread from mammal to mammal.
"Trying to predict an H5N1
pandemic is almost like warning about an earthquake.
It could very well happen, perhaps next year, or in five
years or who knows when. Or never."
Mink are "thought to be not so
different from people, at least from a flu
perspective. They are closely related to ferrets,
which are used as a model for humans in flu research because
they develop similar symptoms and have similar receptors
that flu viruses use to infect human cells." ((note
the ferrets))
"Mink, more so than any other farmer
species, pose a risk for the emergency of future disease
outbreaks and the evolution of future pandemics..."
"...the H5N1 clade (strain)
currently spreading around the world is dubbed 2.3.4.4b -
may have actually made the virus less adept at cracking into
human cells, even if it's better at spreading among
birds."
"Worldwide, there have been few
reported cases in people in the past several years, and
many of the seeming infections were so mild that there
is some debate over whether they were true infections or
the person just had bits of virus in their nose after an
exposure."
H5N1 would need to pick up
more than a mutation or two before it could take off among
people, scientists think. it might also require
changes in several parts of its genome. For one, the
virus' polymerase - the bit that enables the pathogen to
make copies of itself once it establishes an infection -
would need to be altered to work better in mammalian
cells. The virus would also need to tweak its
hemagglutinin, the protein on its surface that locks onto
host cells to initiate an infection. That protein on
the H5N1 virus is currently better suited to attaching to
avian cells than mammalian ones. Other changes to
the virus might be necessary as well for it to spark a
pandemic."
That was gain-of-function on H5N1
back in 2011 or so! Before any voluntary moratoriums
on gain-of-function research with pathogens of pandemic
potential.
Lab "accidents" happen - and
non-accidents happen.
The CDC at one time "closed two labs
and halted biological shipments in the wake of several
recent incidents in which highly pathogenic microbes were
mishandled by federal laboratories. The cases include
an accidental shipment of live anthrax; the discovery of
forgotten, like smallpox samples; and a newly revealed
incident in which a dangerous influenza strain was
accidentally shipped from CDC to another lab."
And that article is from
2014. How many more 'goofs' since then?
A few years ago, the Colorado
University Student Health Center laboratory received samples
from the CDC or NIH (one of these sent the samples) for CAP
accreditation. This lab and three others had been sent
Spanish Flu by mistake. Before the lab opened all the
specimen bottles for testing they got a notice from the CDC
to stop all handling of the specimens immediately. The
CDC had "accidentally" sent out Spanish Flu to the four
labs. Spanish Flu is BSL-4 lab stuff. How could
this have ever happened? This was a HUGE error!
(unless on purpose)
There are also Chinese researchers
working with NIH, CDC, etc. I doubt they are all good
Americans. They have access to pathogens. I wrote a
letter a few weeks ago about Canada's BSL-4 where two
Chinese/CCP researchers took Ebola and Nipah virus from the
lab and moved these to China. This ended up being
Canada's largest national security breach ever. Only
this year did our Congress become interested in this case
and called on Canada to explain what happened. Too
late. Long over with. The researchers returned
to China with no charges. But China now has Ebola and
Nipah virus in their gain-of-function hands.
Obviously, as per the Finland
article above, the testing for bird flu isn't very good.
My other letter today is about the
NIH, NIAID, HHS lying to Congress and covering up
gain-of-function research on Monkeypox...so why would they
tell the truth about any gain-of-function research done on
H5N1 - that's been around a long time and lots of research
has been done on it - as an above article shows with
gain-of-function research done by two labs resulting in the
spread of H5N1 from ferret to ferret (ferrets are the model for humans in flu research because they
develop similar symptoms and have similar receptors that
flu viruses use to infect human cells. per the
Finland article above. This is exactly what the
Finnish article expresses concern about - maybe they aren't
aware that gain-of-function H5N1 ferret to ferret virus
already exists - via a lab!).
And a "voluntary moratorium" on
gain-of-function research is really pretty worthless.
As we've seen with Covid-19. Lots of gain-of-function
research was already done long before someone thought about
making a moratorium voluntary.
"The voluntary moratorium on
gain-of-function research related to the transmissibility of
highly pathogenic H5N1 influenza virus should continue,
pending the resolution of critical policy questions
concerning the rationale for performing such experiments and
how best to report their results."

on Highly Pathogenic H5N1 Influenza Virus: The Way Forward

Milk Pasteurization and H5N1
(Nothing the NIH says is believable.)
As for this news about milk
pasteurization and H5N1 virus, I have my doubts as to the
validity of their results...
"A "small but detectable quantity"
of infectious H5N1 bird flu virus was able to survive a
common approach to pasteurizing milk, according to new
research co-authored by scientists at the National
Institutes of Health. These findings were published in
The New England Journal of Medicine.
"The researchers note this is not
the same as finding infectious H5N1 virus in milk from
grocery stores." So why report their pasteurization
results (if they are even authentic) to the public??
Of what value are their findings?
"Infections have been detected in
cows across farms in a dozen states, with most of the
positive tests coming from raw milk samples that were
teeming with the virus. Authorities have called on
states to curb raw milk sales that could spread the virus
and have warned consumers against drinking raw milk."
Personally, I really doubt this
virus can withstand pasteurization temperatures and
pasteurizer times plus the other steps to treat the
milk. The FDA looked at 297 samples of "retail dairy
products like milk and yogurt and did not turn up any
infectious virus. Earlier tests found only some
harmless fragments of the virus leftover from
pasteurization."
The testing the NIAID did was
heating milk to about 161 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 seconds
"similar to the "high temperature short time" method that is
used widely across the dairy industry. "This yielded
milk...that had "minute amounts of infectious virus".
"You're talking about like 10 virus
particles, whereas the initial starting dose would be
something like 10 million or 100 million virus
particles..." Such small numbers - 10 virus
particles - is insignificant. If it takes 10 million
or 100 million virus to cause an infection.... And how would
they find and count 10 virus??
The study noted that "there is an
initial period in the dairy milk pasteurization that the
milk needs to get from ....." 39 degrees to 162
degrees Fahrenheit. "And obviously once it starts
hitting around 133 degrees Fahrenheit, it already starts
inactivating the virus."
"The second pasteurization approach"
- a half hour at 145 degrees Fahrenheit -"was more
effective. Infectious virus was undetectable within
minutes, long before pasteurization was over."
The FDA said that "their testing
data so far shows the pasteurization processes used by U.S.
dairy companies are effective at killing H5N1."
The commercial milk supply is safe.
One would think that the FDA and
USDA already knew what pasteurization of milk was capable of
doing...with bacteria and viruses. But they once
again, NIH had to prove the milk supply is safe. Odd
that they keep finding a need to test and retest and
retest...."FDA noted additional testing was still being
done." Yah, right. Reminds me of the
'additional' testing they do on chicken farms until they
finally find a positive bird flu test....so they can cull
that entire flock. I do not trust the NIAID,
NIH, FDA, HHS, USDA, etc. The NIH is up to
something with the milk supply....
Ground Beef - No Bird Flu
Found in Cooked Burgers:
They also looked into ground beef
and H5N1. If 'innoculated with bird flu' ground beef
is cooked to medium (145 degrees F) or well-done (160
degrees F), they found no viable bird flu. "The new
testing, which produced results ahead of Memorial Day, was
part of an effort to reassure people that ground beef in the
United States is safe to consume."
"The USDA previously said it tested
30 samples of ground beef from retailers and all tested
negative for H5N1..."
FDA Preparing for Bird Flu
Pandemic:
"FDA says it's preparing for a
bird flu pandemic in people that could kill one in four
Americans." The FDA Commissioner Dr. Robert Califf
said H5N1 mortality rates among those infected had been 25
per cent in other parts of the world.
"We got to have the testing, got
to have antivirals and we need to have a vaccine ready to
go so we've been busy getting prepared for it the virus
does mutate in a way that jumps into humans on a larger
level." he said.
They are working on a mRNA vaccine -
testing it on animals and people. They want to begin
testing it on calves.
"The government has hundreds of
thousands of vaccine doses in pre-filled syringes and vials
that likely could go out in a matter of weeks, if needed,
federal health officials say."
Testing for H5N1:
The CDC uses PCR testing for H5N1 -
just like for Covid-19 virus. I'm sure it has the
unusually high false positives and lots of cross reacting
and it's set to be super sensitive to lots of things so lots
of things will test positive. This is how they find
'bits and pieces' of a virus. Like the "10" viruses
mentioned above in their pasteurized milk.
Ridiculous!!

Testing and Diagnosis for Detecting H7N9 Using rRT-PCR |
Bird Flu | CDC
We'll see whether this bird
flu pandemic pans out for them. I'm sure something is
coming.. Disease X....they've worked too hard with
gain-of-function to let their precious viruses/bacteria/
languish in a petri dish.
Pray for the peace of
Jerusalem!
Maranatha!
