Waar kwam het Mexicaanse griepvirus vandaan?

Yuhu aluhoedjes, vaccinatiehoaxertjes en complottertjes. Hier volgt een belangrijke mededeling. Het H1N1 virus komt uit het lab! Ik weet dat u allen meeleest hier want Crypto zit wél een beetje boven op het nieuws. Dus even de oortjes spitsen en dan snel dit stukje overtikken op uw eigen website. Komt die gratis munitie.

Het H1N1 virus komt uit het lab? Echt? Jahaa. Want dat gaat u schrijven ondanks lezing van de rest.

Waar gaat het over Crypto? Ben jij nu ook gevallen voor die Baxterlab-hoax en de NWO die het virus heeft uitgezet om de wereldbevolking te decimeren? Nee hoor, niet gedronken en geen koekjes gegeten.

In een studie gepubliceerd in Virology vergelijkt wetenschapper Adrian J Gibbs (en dat is geen dombo) de huidige virusstrain met virussen die al meer dan tien jaar geleden ondekt werden en waar in laboratoria mee gewerkt wordt.

The three parents of the virus may have been assembled in one place by natural means, such as by migrating birds, however the consistent link with pig viruses suggests that human activity was involved. We discuss a published suggestion that unsampled pig herds, the intercontinental live pig trade, together with porous quarantine barriers, generated the reassortant. We contrast that suggestion with the possibility that laboratory errors involving the sharing of virus isolates and cultured cells, or perhaps vaccine production, may have been involved.

Gibbs deed al op 14 mei dit jaar die suggestie maar de WHO en de wetenschappers (Appieh!) daar waren niet te overtuigen door de argumenten van Gibbs.

Over the weekend, WHO was contacted by a credible scientist, a credible virologist who indicated to WHO on Saturday that he thought, in his analyses of the gene sequences available, that potentially the viruses that were circulating were from a laboratory-derived virus [....] Because of the nature of the hypothesis and because of the credible nature of the scientist, we took this very seriously.[...] One of the first things that we did was to discuss the hypothesis and the evidence provided by the scientist, and ask them to take a look at that.[....] what we did was then have a larger discussion with the larger group of virologists. These are animal influenza virologists plus human influenza virologists and there was a discussion. We asked them to look at the evidence and then to provide their opinion to us, was this a credible hypothesis or not.[....] This is a process that we have been going through over the last several days this week, and based on that evaluation by all of the laboratories, the conclusion is that this group of scientists feels that the hypothesis does not really stand up to scrutiny. In fact, the evidence suggests that this is a naturally-occurring virus and not a laboratory-derived virus.

Gibbs et al lieten het hier niet bij zitten. Ze zochten nog verder en breidden hun originele onderzoek wat bestond uit drie A4tjes uit. Daarna lieten hun onderzoek peer reviewen. Nu is dit onderzoek gepubliceerd in het gratis online Virology.

From where did the 2009 ‘swine-origin’ influenza A virus (H1N1) emerge?
[abstract] [fulltext PDF]

All studies have concluded that S-OIV emerged into the human population on a single occasion, probably around January 2009. They agree that six of its genes, those encoding the polymerase proteins (PB2, PB1 and PA), the haemagglutinin (HA), the nucleoprotein (NP) and the non-structural proteins (NS), show a clear affinity with those of the ‘triple-reassortant’ influenza viruses first found in North American pigs around 1998, whereas the other two genes, those encoding the neuraminidase (NA) and matrix proteins (MP), are from the Eurasian ‘avian-like’ virus lineage first isolated in Europe around 1979. Neither the ‘triplereassortant’ viruses nor their individual genes have previously been found in Europe nor, likewise, have those of the ‘avian-like’ lineage been found in North America.

Is dit het bewijs dat het uit een lab komt Crypto? Nee. Het stuk levert niet 100% gegarandeerd dat bewijs. Wat het onderzoek aantoont is dat we deze mogelijkheid zeker niet uit kunnen sluiten en misschien wel aannemelijker is dan het natuurlijk ontstaan van deze H1N1 strain. Wat is het belang van deze publicatie?

It is important that the source of the new virus be found if we wish to avoid future pandemics rather than just trying to minimize the consequences after they have emerged. Influenza virus is a very significant zoonotic pathogen. Public confidence in influenza research, and the agribusinesses that are based on influenza’s many hosts, has been eroded by several recent events involving the virus. Measures that might restore confidence include establishing a unified international administrative framework coordinating surveillance, research and commercial work with this virus, and maintaining an registry of all influenza isolates.

Bent u ook weer helemaal op de hoogte. Nu nog even zien hoe snel dit wordt opgepikt door de verschillende media inclusief de usual suspects.

Bent u ook zo benieuwd hoe snel dit gaat?
