From the recent s.b.p. thread of the same name, jillery proclaimed;

"As with other infectious viruses,
CoV-2 ultimately triggers apoptosis aka cell death, to release the
newly formed viruses into the system and infect other cells. "

Pick a number between 1 and 10 ranging between true and entirely fictional.

The paper dates to October 1999, and no mention of COV-2. Being smarter and more honest than I, you'll tell us when COV-2 appeared.
You will of course also feel obligated to translate "infection by most viruses triggers apoptosis or programmed cell death of the infected cell" as it relates to COV-2 into simple words idiot cretins like myself may have a chance in understanding.

it talks about viruses in general. covid19 is a virus. it behaves the way
described in the paper.

Of course, you’re too stupid to see that.

So you say, not the paper. I gave you a clue below: "Most viruses". So if you can read for comprehension and are reasonably intelligent, you'd realize that some viruses do not kill cells.

Oh, I see that all right. I posted this especially for you, being likely to take the bait. I had considered pasting jillery's face with it, until I saw you on a roll today.

Does not follow what? Clearly you feel superior in intellect to me and honest, and if you were you'd know by now that you need to correct your error of interpreting an old article to fit COV-2, and if you were not familiar with the subject, to have done at least a little research, and retracted your claim.
You've clearly done none of that.

That's your problem, not mine. Clearly you're completely ignorant of the respective science, and ignorant of who your attitude and behavior hurts.

*Some* viruses kill cells. Others do not. COV-2 process of replication is by "budding" through cell membrane, not "bursting" cells.

I acknowledge I posted the above statement.

I acknowledge that statement is technically incorrect.

I have recently learned that unlike other infectious viruses,
coronaviruses, which include CoV-2, instead cause cells to bud virus
particles.

However, the larger claim, that CoV-2 doesn't directly damage cells,
is also technically incorrect. Infected cells don't perform their
normal functions, and die prematurely.

Also, CoV-2 enters cells through the ACE2 receptor, which appears on
the cells of many organs. Once CoV-2 enters the bloodstream through
damagaed lungs, it infects and damages those organs as well.

You can stop your mindless trolling now.

The only trolling here is you allowing an implication that there was a larger claim made, as well as claiming I am "mindlessly trolling".

You aren't much different than Wolffan.

Apparently you think it acceptable to make more claims without a shred of backup, right after you made a big boo boo and got caught.

Of course, as you have before, could claim that you didn't see my post in s.b.p., yet you seem to read many, if not most, of my posts, since you
respond to them so often. It couldn't be that you hoped it would just get buried? Hmm. Honesty is another trait Wolffan invoked. You would not have left others with false ideas about COVID. But of course, this is all "mindless", huh.

Pretty much all viruses ultimately kill their host cells. Not all do so
by triggering apoptosis.

Perhaps you should learn what 'apoptosis' means.

Sez the poster who created and fed an off-topic troll in SBP, and
transplanted that troll to T.O.


> allowing an implication that there was a larger claim made,


Both you and the peter claimed exactly that. If you deny it, then
your spamming about CoV-2 is yet more of your mindless noise.


>as well as claiming I am "mindlessly trolling".


Trolling is mindless by definition.

You aren't much different than all the other willfully stupid

Yes, I posted an erroneous statement. I acknowledged and corrected
it. That's what grownups do. You might learn how to do it someday,
perhaps before Christ's Second Coming.


>Of course, as you have before, could claim that you didn't see my post in s.b.p.,


You have posted much mindless crap in SBP. Which one do you allude?

You say that like it's a Bad Thing (c). Yes, I respond to lots of
posts, in contrast to your many willfully stupid replies.


>It couldn't be that you hoped it would just get buried?


As long as you and other mindless trolls are around, no post can
expect to stay buried.


>Hmm. Honesty is another trait Wolffan invoked. You would not have left others with false ideas about COVID. But of course, this is all "mindless", huh.


Since you asked, yes. But assuming for argument's sake all your
asinine allusions are correct, exactly what do you think is so
important about how CoV-2 spreads copies of itself?

Since you asked, my post which included the quote you cited, the one

you nor your comments were even mentioned. Perhaps that's too hard for

Your expressed opinion above is exactly the kind of baseless,
mindless, pointless criticism which in fact feeds pseudoskeptics like
Glenn. Even if you ignored replying to Glenn directly, your opinion
is based on a false equivalence, that his willfully stupid made-up
crap is the same smear as the evidence I post of his made-up crap.

If pseudoskeptics like Glenn have a prurient interest, it would be to
read posters like you mindlessly, baselessly, pointlessly, criticize
posters who criticize pseudoskeptics, and by so doing not only
passively enable the pseudoskeptics' "poopocalypse", but actively
engage in their smear campaign.

I would put you back in the bozo-bin, but you never left it.

Well if you see one of his many poop droppings you either midwife more of
the same or do the robotic Roomba spread. I like that metaphor. It hereby
replaces the Energizer bunny.

Yes, both of which you are at least as guilty as me, while by you own
admission you completely ignore Glenn's direct contribution. Not sure
how you figure that's a strategy designed to mitigate the actual
problem.

Perhaps you should learn what lysis means. It was what John Harshman told Peter in s.b.p. how COV-2 kills cells to reproduce.
COV-2 is known to reproduce by a process called "budding", which does not kill the cell, at least not while the virus is releasing newly catched viruses out of the cell.

jillery's "correction" is claiming that COV-2 do doesn't lyse, but "buds'. jillery has said nothing about killing cells in order to reproduce.

> https://www.nature.com/articles/s41423-020-0485-9

There is only one instance in that paper than can be said to address virus reproduction:

"the diminished pro-apoptotic activity of SARS-CoV-2 ORF3a is probably associated with reduced apoptosis-mediated antiviral defence in infected cells. These properties probably confer certain advantages for SARS-CoV-2 in that infection can be relatively mild or even asymptomatic during early stages, thus allowing the virus to spread more widely."

Andre, Andre. COV-2 does not kill cells to reproduce, either by lysis or programmed cell death. It does not triggers apoptosis in order to release the
newly formed viruses.

Don't listen to either Wolffan or jillery about such things. And I have not ever claimed or implied that I believe the COVID virus to be "harmless by itself'. So maybe you shouldn't listen to yourself either.

So the virus infects cells that then die. No reason to talk about virus reproduction. God it.

Mea Culpa. I freely confess to belaboring the obvious.

You clearly have been belaboring the obvious.

COV-2 does not trigger apoptosis aka cell death in order to release the newly formed viruses. That is what is obvious.
