U.S. Government Gave $3.7 Million Grant to Wuhan Institute of Virology for Coronavirus Research
April 12th, 2020“Is the Chinese Covid-19 bioweapon/fuckup ultimately blowback from some U.S. program?”
And now…
Via: Daily Mail:
The Chinese laboratory at the center of scrutiny over a potential coronavirus leak has been using U.S. government money to carry out research on bats from the caves which scientists believe are the original source of the deadly outbreak.
The Wuhan Institute of Virology undertook coronavirus experiments on mammals captured more than 1,000 miles away in Yunnan which were funded by a $3.7 million grant from the US government.
Sequencing of the COVID-19 genome has traced it back to bats found in Yunnan caves but it was first thought to have transferred to humans at an animal market in Wuhan.
The revelation that the Wuhan Institute was experimenting on bats from the area already known to be the source of COVID-19 – and doing so with American money – has sparked further fears that the lab, and not the market, is the original outbreak source.
…
The $37million Wuhan Institute of Virology, the most advanced laboratory of its type on the Chinese mainland, is based twenty miles from the now infamous wildlife market that was thought to be the location of the original transfer of the virus from animals to humans.
According to documents obtained by The Mail on Sunday, scientists there experimented on bats as part of a project funded by the US National Institutes of Health, which continues to licence the Wuhan laboratory to receive American money for experiments.
…
As part of the NIH research at the institute, scientists grew a coronavirus in a lab and injected it into three-day-old piglets.
The news that COVID-19 bats were under research there means that a leak from the Wuhan laboratory can no longer be completely ruled out.

Argument for a 5G – COVID-19 Epidemic Causation Mechanism by Martin Pall, PhD
April 11th, 2020The problem with causation theories of 5G and Covid-19 is that there are many places with no 5G at all AND a Covid-19 problem. France has no 5G (5G spectrum auctions haven’t even happened yet) and it has the 4th most Covid-19 cases. How can that be if 5G is supposedly the cause?
South Korea is bathed in 5G, and has several million people using 5G devices. If 5G is causing this, why isn’t a county with one of the largest 5G deployments and user bases anywhere near to having the worst Covid-19 problem?
It’s because 5G isn’t the cause.
Could 5G be making Covid-19 phenomena worse in some cases? Possibly. But causing it? No.
Here’s what anonymous people are mostly submitting to me right now:
Don’t believe the Chinese bioweapon story, which is the best theory as of now.
5G is behind this, which is a distraction.
Hmm. Fascinating.
Via: Electromagnetic Health:
Two documents reprinted on [1], each argue that there are reasons to think that 5G radiation is greatly stimulating the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and therefore, an important public health measure would be to shut down the 5G antennae and particularly the small cell 5G antennae in close proximity to our homes, schools, businesses, house of worship and hospitals.
After 50 Years of Effort, Researchers Made Silicon Emit Light
April 11th, 2020Via: Wired:
Modern transistors, which function as a computer’s brain cells, are only a few atoms long. If they are packed too tightly, that can cause all sorts of problems: electron traffic jams, overheating, and strange quantum effects. One solution is to replace some electronic circuits with optical connections that use photons instead of electrons to carry data around a chip. There’s just one problem: Silicon, the main material in computer chips, is terrible at emitting light.
Now, a team of European researchers says they have finally overcome this hurdle. On Wednesday, a research team led by Erik Bakkers, a physicist at Eindhoven University of Technology in the Netherlands, published a paper in Nature that details how they grew silicon alloy nanowires that can emit light. It’s a problem that physicists have grappled with for decades, but Bakkers says his lab is already using the technique to develop a tiny silicon laser that can be built into computer chips. Integrating photonic circuits on conventional electronic chips would enable faster data transfer and lower energy consumption without raising the chip’s temperature, which could make it particularly useful for data-intensive applications like machine learning.

‘Breadlines’ Erupt Across America As Lockdowns Crush America’s “Working Poor”
April 11th, 2020Via: ZeroHedge:
The economy has crashed into a depression, 16.78 million Americans have applied for unemployment benefits, and consumer sentiment crashed the most on record. This American horror story has taken only three weeks to play out, the fastest and most severe economic crash in the country’s history, and still, we don’t know the true extent of the damage until the second half of the year.
However, the one thing we do know is that food bank networks across the country have reported unprecedented demand as a hunger crisis unfolds.
COVID-19 Forces Earth’s Largest Telescopes to Close

An Astronomy magazine tally has found that more than 100 of Earth’s biggest research telescopes have closed in recent weeks due to the COVID-19 pandemic. What started as a trickle of closures in February and early March has become an almost complete shutdown of observational astronomy. And the closures are unlikely to end soon.
Observatory directors say they could be offline for three to six months — or longer. In many cases, resuming operations will mean inventing new ways of working during a pandemic. And that might not be possible for some instruments that require teams of technicians to maintain and operate. As a result, new astronomical discoveries are expected to come to a crawl.
“If everybody in the world stops observing, then we have a gap in our data that you can’t recover,” says astronomer Steven Janowiecki of the McDonald Observatory in Texas. “This will be a period that we in the astronomy community have no data on what happened.”
