White House Revamps COVID-19 Website to Promote Lab Leak Theory
I'm afraid there is no point debating with this lot. I've worked 20+ years in infectious disease, in BSL2 through BSL4 labs. The very first Chinese vaccine was Sinovac. This was a conventional inactivated virus that had been propagated through a chimpanzee sell line. As a result, the manufactured virus contained Chimp RNA, not Human RNA. Chimps, while closely related to Men, are not Men. So the vaccine didn't work. As vaccines go, that was one of the easiet to make. For any virus, if you can propoagate it in bulk, the rest is relatively a piece of cake and the risks well understood. I've said repeatedly, there are not 3 possibilities, but at least 4 possibilities, in order of decreasing likelihood 1. Zoonitic transmission on the local wet market, or some other place. 2. Accidental leakage from the institute reference lab. The Wuhan Lab wasn't just a research lab. Its a reference lab as well. That means it received hundreds of samples a week from hospital labs in the surrounding area. There is a major trade in bat guano; locals are digging holes to mine deposits themselves, for extra money. We are finding a ton of new coronaviruses as this activity increases. The reference labs are BSL-2. For those who know what that means, its significant. 3. Accidental leakages from the institute research lab. Coronavirus research was carried out in BSL-4 labs. Again, anyone familiar with BSL-4 will know the physical controls in place. 4. Deliberate release. Every city on the planet will have at least 1 hospital. And that hospital will have at least one pathology laboratory. And in those labs, lab techs will be deliberately growing, or attempting to grow, extremely infectious agents, some more virulant than other, but all of them disease causing in humans, Hence the diagnostic tests in a hospital. At the end of testing, waste is supposed to be autoclaved (steam sterilised) before entering general waste. But that doesn't always happen. Sometimes the plates get dropped straight into the black bags. Sometimes the autoclave breaks down. Sometimes the cycle doesn't complete, and there is no indicator tape, All this happens every day around the world. Outbreaks are not occuring. Hospital acquired infections tend to be infections one patient gets from another, and is not an infection acquired from the hospital per se. The last Foot and Mouth Virus outbreak in the UK, in 2007, was due to an accidental lab release. Pretty much the entire herd had to be culled. What confused scientists was that the strain found was identical to a 1968 strain, which ought not be possible. There were fears that carcasses from the 1968 outbreak, which had been buried, were now contaminating the water table. But the penny dropped. The source of the outbreak was the main veterinary research lab at Pirbright. The facility consists of the DEFRA labs, and lab accomodation rented to a range of companies manufacturing veterinary medicines.. One of the tenants manufacturers FMV vaccine for export. That means they propagated vast quantities of virus, to inactivate to become vaccine. So there was a lot of virus rich effluent, which was pumped via a pipe to an onsite treatment works, before the slurry was discharged into the municipal sewer. For months he tenant had been in argument with the landlord, DEFRA, over a cracked pipe, and who was going to pay for it. In the meantime, vets came and went from the lab carpark, and the virus was introduced onto the farms. Probably hundreds of contamination events occurred before the outbreak happened. Not surprising, when one considers that lab outbreaks are rare, because the infection itself is difficult. -

Crime Shocking Scene at Patong Beach as Tourist Couple Caught in Public Indecency
Picture courtesy of Amarin. Social media has been buzzing after photos and videos surfaced showing a foreign tourist couple engaging in an explicit public act on Patong Beach, Phuket. The pair, described as a man and woman of African descent, were reportedly seen in a compromising position early in the morning of 21 April, seemingly unfazed by the presence of other beachgoers. According to eyewitnesses and images shared online, the couple appeared to be involved in an intimate act for nearly 15 minutes on the public beach in Kathu District. Locals and tourists alike were left shocked by the brazen display, with many expressing disgust. Online commentary has been scathing, with users posting comments such as, “If you can’t wait, go to your hotel room,” and “Absolutely shameless behaviour – this is a public place!” Others remarked on the apparent lack of law enforcement presence, calling for heavier penalties for such offences. One local resident said, “It was truly obscene. We understand tourists want to enjoy themselves, but there are limits. This was completely unacceptable.” Authorities have yet to release an official statement, but public calls for fines or legal action against the couple are growing. This incident follows a string of reports highlighting unruly tourist behaviour in Thailand, raising concerns about the need for stricter enforcement and awareness campaigns about appropriate conduct in public spaces.
