The Wuhan Virus Origin Debacle: A “Bias Makes You Stupid” Classic
MAY 27, 2021 / JACK MARSHALL
Times Wuhan hack

I periodically am asked why I insist on referring to the pandemic virus,
which unquestionably originated in China, almost certainly in the Wuhan
province, and was allowed to spread world-wide in part by cover-up
activities by the Chinese government, “The Wuhan virus.” After all, the
edict came down from our politically-correct betters that this term was
“racist,” despite the fact that it conveyed useful and accurate
information that the technical term “COVID” does not.

I typically reply that I call it the Wuhan virus because that’s where it
came from, and virtually every other virus has been named for its place
of origin (sometimes inaccurately). I also do so in defiance of the open
scheme among the news media to try to advance the Big Lie that President
Trump was being racist by using the term when the news media itself had
employed it before deciding this was one more opportunity to undermine
Trump’s Presidency.

In addition, I furiously reject the proposition that because idiots and
assholes react to truthful statements by behaving unjustly, violently
and stupidly, as with the still relatively few who have attacked or
abused Asian-Americans using the same cretinous rationale as those who
killed dachshunds during World War I, anyone should shade the truth or
avoid stating a fact. I reject the Asshole’s Veto, in other words.

There is also this motivating me: China is an international villain, and
nobody should pretend otherwise or make any effort to excuse or disguise
that nation’s true nature. Moreover, I am not running for office, and
have succeeded in making anyone trying to justify the ban on calling a
Chinese virus a Chinese virus look like the race-baiting tool that he or
she is.

The entire effort to label as racist any statement, theory or belief
that China bears responsibility for the virus that has killed millions
and savaged the world economy would not have occurred with such fervor
if it were not fueled by anti-Trump hatred and bias. Now the
inconvenient truth that the virus may have originated in a Wuhan lab is
exposing the despicable censorship effort for what it is, so its
purveyors are desperately trying avoid the opprobrium they richly deserve.


“Days before the Wuhan wet market was bleached, whistleblowers were
punished and virus samples were destroyed, someone at the high-security
Wuhan Institute of Virology censored its virus database in an apparent
attempt to disassociate the laboratory from a novel-coronavirus outbreak
that would become a global pandemic,” reported the New York Post, citing
a UK intelligence analyst. The move occurred two days before a gene
sequencing lab was reportedly ordered by the Health and Medical
Commission of Hubei Province to destroy samples of the new virus and
withhold information. According to the report, the alterations –
conducted on the evening of Dec. 30 – were substantial and occurred the
day before the CCP notified the World Health Organization about the
outbreak of a cluster of pneumonia cases in Wuhan.

But it was racist for Donald Trump to refer to it as the “Wuhan virus”
or the “Chinese virus,” because undermining the President of the United
States was deemed more important than informing the public. As usual.

Then the Wall Street Journal reported that three lab workers at the
Wuhan Institute of Virology were hospitalized in late 2019 with symptoms
consistent with the virus, following on to reporting by the Washington
Post. With the false narrative unraveling, the Biden administration
admitted that the Chinese government has tried to stop an independent
investigation into the origins of the virus, and now the administration
questions the validity of the China-backed WHO study that concluded the
virus naturally jumped from animals to humans. Meanwhile, the
inexplicably lionized Anthony Fauci, who claimed last year that there
was “no scientific evidence the coronavirus was made in a Chinese lab,”
flip-flopped once again, saying earlier this month that “we should
continue to investigate what went on in China until we find out to the
best of our ability exactly what happened.” This coincides with the
revelation that Fauci’s own National Institute of Allergy and Infectious
Diseases may have funded “controversial ‘gain of function’ research
where coronaviruses were made ‘more infectious in humans,’” at the Wuhan
Institute of Virology.

As John Travolta says in “Face-Off”: “What a coinky-dink!!”

Yesterday, since a good President was questioning the origins of the
virus, Facebook announced that it would no longer censor posts that it
should not have been censoring at all, ever.

“In light of ongoing investigations into the origin of COVID-19 and in
consultation with public health experts, we will no longer remove the
claim that COVID-19 is man-made from our apps,” said a Zuckerberg
spokesperson in an email. “We’re continuing to work with health experts
to keep pace with the evolving nature of the pandemic and regularly
update our policies as new facts and trends emerge.” But Facebook’s
embarrassment is just a small part of the fiasco.

CNN reported that President Biden canceled a Trump-era State Department
investigation into the origins of the Wuhan virus on the grounds that it
was just a ploy to frame China for the pandemic. The serially unethical
and politically biased “factcheck” service Politifact was exposed as
“stealth editing” an earlier article ‘debunking’ the lab-leak hypothesis;

Politifact X

Ahmari is a New York Post editor. Progressive propaganda agent VOX was
also caught stealth-editing an article “debunking” the lab origin.

Perhaps the best example of how this mess has not only proven how bias
makes you stupid, but also how bias lets everyone realize how stupid
bias has made you, is the case of Apoorva Mandavilli (above), the Times
science and global health reporter. She tweeted yesterday, “Someday we
will stop talking about the lab leak theory and maybe even admit its
racist roots. But alas, that day is not yet here.”

Unfortunately for her, such an idiotic and unethical tweet would have
been considered standard cant in 2020, when the mainstream media relayed
CCP talking points and punished anyone who strayed from the official
narrative, but now such screaming obfuscation is a smoking gun.
Independent journalist Glenn Greenwald responded incredulously,

“Can someone explain to me why it’s racist to wonder if a virus escaped
from a Chinese lab, but it’s not racist to insist that it infected
humans because of Chinese wet markets? If anything, isn’t the latter
more racist? Also, isn’t the relevant question: *what happened*? Or no?”

Mandavilli deleted that tweet, but replaced it with an even more damning
one, writing, “A theory can have racist roots and still gather
reasonable supporters along the way. Doesn’t make the roots any less
racist or the theory any more convincing, though.”

Huh? That one was taken down almost immediately, to be replaced by,

“I deleted my earlier tweets about the origins of the pandemic because
they were badly phrased.’

Translation: “I took down those tweets because they exposed how biased
and untrustworthy I am, and by extension, any paper that would employ me
as a global health reporter.”

Actually, COVID stands for "COronaVirus Infectious Disease" which
conveys the "useful and accurate information" that an infectious
coronavirus is causing disease.

"The Wuhan virus" conveys only geographical origin which is useless in
the setting of an active pandemic.

Once a wild horse has escaped from the barn, it really is too late to
close the door at the geographical origin.

If inaccurate, then it's not the place of origin by definition.

Moreover, HIV is a glaring example of a virus that is not named after
its place of origin.

Other glaring examples include measles, smallpox, chickenpox, HPV,
HSV, RSV, and SV40.

Ignorance blinds virtually anyone.

Moreover, if it's proven that COVID-19 is the tragic result of SARS
vaccine research gone awry, laboratory safety standards will have to
be upgraded to prevent re-occurrence and our global lesson would be
that vaccine research comes with not only high cost but also high
risk.

Bottom line:

The only healthy way to stop the pandemic in the U.S. and other
places is by rapidly ( http://bit.ly/RapidTestCOVID-19 ) finding
out at any given moment, including even while on-line, who among us
are unwittingly contagious (i.e pre-symptomatic or asymptomatic) in
order to http://bit.ly/convince_it_forward (John 15:12) for them to
call their doctor and self-quarantine per their doctor in hopes of
stopping this pandemic. Thus, we're hoping for the best while
preparing for the worse-case scenario of the B.1.1.7 lineage mutations
and others like the P.1, B.1.135, B.1.351, B.1.429, B.1.525, &
B.1.617.1-3 lineage mutations combining to render current COVID
vaccines no longer effective.

Indeed, I am wonderfully hungry ( http://bit.ly/RapidTestCOVID-19 )
and hope you, Michael, also have a healthy appetite too.

So how are you ?

Except the despicable Chinese unleashed the virus on the world, and if
they did it once, they can-- and will-- do it again.

So knowing its origin is important.

You're no longer a doctor, and you're also a notorious liar-- just
like the Chinese-- so your opinion isn't worth the bits and bytes it
took to post.

While wonderfully hungry in the Holy Spirit, Who causes (Deuteronomy
8:3) us to hunger, I note that you, Michael, not only don't have
COVID-19 but are rapture (Luke 17:37) ready and pray (2 Chronicles
7:14) that our Everlasting (Isaiah 9:6) Father in Heaven continues to
give us "much more" (Luke 11:13) Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23) so
that we'd have much more of His Help to always say/write that we're
"wonderfully hungry" in **all** ways including especially caring to
http://bit.ly/convince_it_forward (John 15:12 as shown by
http://bit.ly/RapidTestCOVID-19 ) with all glory (
http://bit.ly/Psalm117_ ) to GOD (aka HaShem, Elohim, Abba, DEO), in
the name (John 16:23) of LORD Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Amen.

Laus DEO !

Be hungrier, which really is wonderfully healthier especially for
diabetics and other heart disease patients:

Here is Jack Marshall's reply.

A reply to the reply:

1. To 99% of the population, “COVID” conveys no information whatsoever.
2. The location name is not inaccurate in this case, so the fact that it
was in some others (Spansih Flu) is irrelevant
3. HIV/AIDs was originally called “The Gay Disease” because that was the
group being killed. It’s a bad analogy.
4. HPV, HSV, RSV, and SV40 are also useless and hyper-technical names
for iollnesses if they are going to be widely discussed in public. “Pox”
is descriptive, making it a valid name choice.
5. Andrew still doesn’t explain why calling a Chinese virus a Chinese
virus is “racist.”

Verdict: a snotty and slippery reply.

Actually, "COVID" conveys "useful and accurate information" (see
above) for 100% of the front-line medical workers who are fighting the
COVID-19 pandemic either in person or virtually including here on
USENET.

"'The Wuhan virus' conveys only geographical origin which is useless
in the setting of an active pandemic.

Once a wild horse has escaped from the barn, it really is too late to
close the door at the geographical origin." (see above)

In the interim, I am simply wonderfully hungry (

have a healthy appetite too.

So again, how are you ?

Real doctors know that the source of the virus is very important.

Lying, fake doctors will try to hide this fact.

In the "fog" of an active pandemic, "the history of the (active)
