GeoDoorn, why don't you familiarize yourself with virus dissident literature, before you say wincing groan-inducing things like, "There are plenty of pictures out there: see
https://www.niaid.nih.gov/news-events/novel-coronavirus-sarscov2-images and there were a few more links on this thread I believe".
It's like hitting one's head against a brick wall. You clearly haven't read any virus dissident literature and if you have read anything I and others have said here skeptical of the corona virus, citing Cowan, Kaufmann, Lanka and others (I would add Rosemary Frei, also Perth Group literature on HIV, which has its own implications to virology as a whole), you haven't even bothered to read what they write or speak about. You certainly don't understand it, even superficially and in outline. You also don't understand anything us corona virus skeptics are saying right here on the forum re virus isolation, purified virus (myself, Larkin, Viberaider, Bailey). Obviously NIAID is going to say they have the virus, relying as they know they can on the public not knowing anything, doctors not knowing anything, and everybody else being in their pocket, or part of the Old Boys' Gangster Medical Mafia Network and/or indoctrinated into their virus mania worldview. They know they can get away with anything, they always have. What else are they going to say? Would they say: 'Oh the virus dissidents may be right, we don't have a virus, we made a mistake, you lost your job, couldn't travel, we terrified you for no reason, turned the cities of the world into ghost towns over a phantom that doesn't exist, had you wearing a demon cloth protector for no reason, couldn't go to a family funeral, canceled a wedding ha ha sorry, please forgive us, let's move on, and don't forget to trust us when we claim another virus devastating the world.' Uh I don't think so. It's basic psychology, it's cognitive dissonance. Their job is practically defined by selling virus mania, and the selling of pharma drugs and vaccines in the wake of virus and germ mania. So that's what they do.
I have written elsewhere on this thread that we all have ENDOGENOUS (synthesized within our own cells) virus-like particles in our bodies, as have others here, extra-cellular vesicles such as exosomes and endosomes, there are also mobile genetic elements (MGEs), such as transposons, retroelements inclusive of retrotransposons and endogenous retroviruses. The science here is relatively new. It has huge ramifications to everything from evolutionary biology to ontogeny, illness and health, microevolution, phenotypic plasticity, adaptivity, virology and more. Such ENDOGENOUS bioparticles are indistinguishable in terms of morphology, size, DNA and RNA nucleotides, including number of sequences, proteins, loci within the cells, their dynamical activity and other traits, from putative EXOGENOUS AND SO-CALLED PATHOGENIC viruses. Inclusive of positive and negative sense DNA and RNA, single strand, double strand. SARS-CoV-2 for example is classified as a single strand negative sense RNA virus. All this stuff about ENDOGENOUS extra-cellular vesicles and MGEs were not remotely known about not only in the early days of virology, even well after WW2, not even when Crick, Watson, Wilkins, made the breakthrough on the DNA helix structure in the fifties, and the quaternary code here. It really begins in the 1960s and 70s, and even then our knowledge here was rudimentary, coarse. I realize that what I write here - and I have alluded to the same thing in a different way on this very lengthy thread topic now - is not going to be understood or appreciated by knee-jerk hear-no-evil-see-no-evil-in-virology skeptics who do not get to grips with basic cellular biology, genetics, virology, and the history of genetics, cellular biology and virology, along with the history of modern medicine and its fair share of disasters, blunders and fraud, its iatrogenic murder and maiming, but that's how it goes. And unless you do so, why do you think you know what you are talking about?
The Gangster Medical Mafia, whose jobs and reputations are wedded to virus mania and are on a huge power kick here, say they have a picture! I have seen it myself! So there! This is just naive and it also reflects on know-nothingness. If they have a virus, why is their testing all over the place? People are positive then negative, routinely on the same day. Elon Musk goes for a test, he is positive twice, negative twice, same rapid test, same machine, same nurse. He says this and that this testing is bogus (all in a Tweet). No kidding. I could have told him. Plenty of stories like this on social media. Musk is just famous, so it got some attention. Different tests give different results and the same tests, as Musk discovered, give different results. That's consistent with there being no virus, not there being one. It's what those of us who say there is no virus would predict. They are detecting endogenous enzymes and/or nucleotides (depending on the assay), not any exogenous viral proteins or RNA (or its DNA complement, as with PCR testing, technically RT-PCR), enzymes in antibodies (having nothing to do with SPECIFIC SARS-CoV-2 antibodies which do not exist because the virus does not exist, lying to the contrary, and I haven't even gotten onto the problem of antibody polyspecificity), lying to the contrary. If they have a virus that is exogenous and pathogenic, then their test results should be consistent. They are not. And for the reasons I state in this paragraph, they don't have a virus sigh. See the same thing with HIV testing. And for the same reason - there is no HIV. What is it about Kary Mullis and his commentary on PCR testing for viruses (rather their nucleotide sequences per se) that I wrote about yesterday that you didn't get? You know better than Mullis? You didn't read it? You didn't understand it? You don't think it matters? I notice the true believers here don't even seem to care, they didn't read my post here re Mullis and PCR or they greet it with a shrug, yeah yawn so what? No big deal yawn. I said and predicted as much in that very post of mine. It's religious, this virus mania, there is no science here.
This is tip of the iceberg stuff, but I realize it makes no difference to the true believers who can't and won't get to grips with medical dissident literature on viruses, or even watch the videos, listen to the podcasts. I don't write for such people, because it's a waste of time. I write for those who I hope are reading this thread, and who are more open minded here, and actually read and DIGEST what us virus dissidents are saying. And look into it for themselves, instead of not wanting to know and running off to Big Mafia Medicine for the soothing lies.
Here is a challenge: read the AIDS dissident literature, I have already put up a link to the biggest resource which would keep anybody so interested busy for years even (virusmyth.org), if the true virus believers are not going to read it, watch the doccies etc. why should we take you seriously when you dismiss in the same way corona virus dissent? Clearly you lot for the most part just don't want to know. I am repeating myself because none of you true believers in da virus get to grips with anything us skeptics are saying. If I had no idea what AIDS dissidents were saying, but somebody told me such a thing existed and there were med scientists from all backgrounds (virology, immunology, genetics, molecular biology, biophysics, Ivy League included), from around the world, including one of the fathers of retrovirology and Nobel Laureate scientists, who held such a position; and a fair number of gay men who were at ground zero in NY and San Fran back in the eighties, I would be more than a little curious. What do they say causes GRID (as AIDS was originally called, gay related immune deficiency), African AIDS, what do they say about HIV? I would make the time to investigate. That's what I did near 20 years ago. So here to the true believers: what are AIDS dissidents saying about gay AIDS in toto (that is the multiple causes), and how come the orthodoxy do not acknowledge any of this? Wow I wonder why.... I'm just talking about gay AIDS here, I have not even got onto the HIV isolation issue, testing, African AIDS, ARVs. And if you don't want to know even about gay AIDS, never mind the HIV isolation issue, then why would you want to know about the SARS-CoV-2 isolation issue? Well you don't. So if you can't answer the gay AIDS thing (and it's not so easy or simple, even if you are open minded here and start going through the dissident literature, and I'm talking - what AIDS dissidents are saying in their own words. It takes some time, not just a day or two), you are not going to get to grips with the keystone nitty-gritty science that is HIV isolation and ipso facto any other kind of virus isolation claim, the latest corona virus included. From a dissident perspective I mean.
Going by the true believer responses here, knee-jerk and dismissive, one would have no idea about the first thing relating to corona virus dissent, and what the likes of Cowan, Frei, Kaufmann, Crowe, Lanka, Kohnlein (whose book 'Virus Mania' has now been updated to include COVID-19, co-authored with Engelbrecht) are actually saying, not even vaguely. And again one would not know anything whatsoever about HIV/AIDS dissent, nothing, going by the true believers here, the huge polio scandal and more. You all don't want to know. People are indoctrinated by germ mania from infancy really, in the same way people in the Middle Ages and even more so if anything in the Renaissance period, were indoctrinated in the belief in the threat of diabolical witchcraft, to their religion and their very lives. Burn the witches! However, in terms of killing efficiency and power and reach (it's the whole earth now) and speed at spreading terror (the Holy Inquisition never had the Internet, social media and mass media, TV news, radio) and fear of phantoms, the Holy Inquisition and the witch finders of old ain't got nothing on WHO, NIH, CDC, NIAID, British NHS, med journals and medical associations the world over, the fawning media etc. Move over Matthew Hopkins Witchfinder General, you ain't got nothing on Anthony Fauci, who let us not forget, was a senior figure in the AIDS Inquistion at NIAID before he moved onto COVID-19 terror. Those witch hunters of old, they are amateur hour and inefficient killers, compared to the brutal efficiency of Big Pharma Big Mafia Germ Mania Medicine that now rules over every aspect of our lives and jobs. And is destroying the world, our economies and our everyday contacts, routines and relationships. It's quite something to behold.
