Imagine for a moment, you are the chief medical officer in the state of Sensible, in a country called Rational. Unlike the chief health officers in countries like Australia, you are not a corrupt, prematurely-aged mediocrity but an honest official who really does care about the well-being of your constituents. Your interest is piqued when you hear news of a 'novel' virus emanating from China that is allegedly spreading like wildfire around the world. When citizens of Sensible start exhibiting symptoms of this novel flu, the first thing that strikes you is how these symptoms are essentially identical to those of regular influenza. As it is now winter, there is every likelihood that is exactly what you are dealing with: The seasonal flu.
However, the WHO, Bill Gates (a software mogul with no medical qualifications whatsoever, who sponsors the WHO and harbors a fixation with vaccines and population control), Anthony Fauci (a traitorous shonk who allows US taxpayer money to be funneled to shady Chinese biolabs), and the world's journalists (who collectively struggle to match the combined IQ of a small baboon troop), rabidly insist the new flu is not only novel but uber-deadly. What's more, they are portraying anyone who disagrees as an evil, heartless murderer.
In this situation, wouldn't you immediately set out to determine the actual viral strain present in Sensible patients allegedly presenting with COVID-19? Given that numerous research teams already claim to have isolated Sars-Cov-2, wouldn't you replicate their alleged methods, take samples from the initial wave of patients, test them, and isolate whatever virus is causing their symptoms?
It sounds the perfectly sensible and rational thing to do, right?
Sadly, we do not live in a sensible and rational world.
All around the world, skeptics have been submitting FOI requests to their state and federal health departments, asking two perfectly sensible questions:
Have you isolated, via scientifically valid methods, the virus dubbed "Sars-Cov-2"?
If so, have you then administered this "Sars-Cov-2" to animals and/or humans under controlled experimental conditions and produced the disease dubbed "COVID-19"?
Any health department worth its oldest Xerox should have immediately implemented these two steps as a matter of course.
Yet in every instance, the response to FOI requests asking these two eminently reasonable questions has either been "NO" or no response. I myself asked these questions of the hopelessly corrupt South Australian health department, trading as SA Health, via two FOI requests. Despite a massive annual budget of six billion dollars to 'look after' an entire state population of only 1.7 million people (the size of a single borough in many of the world's mega-cities), SA Health has completely ignored me.
It's not hard to work out why: SA Health doesn't have the evidence I requested.
So yes, researchers in China may have taken a strain of one of their hybrid lab-made viruses and dubbed it Sars-Cov-2. But there is no proof whatsoever this is what infected your Uncle Bob, Auntie Martha or Zia Maria when they were diagnosed with "COVID" after having giant Q-tips shoved up their proboscises.
