    by the same token,
    when the flies hear my voice, they fly away.
    when i crop their wings, they do not fly off when i use my voice.
    thus, flies become deaf when their wings are cropped.

    btw,
    any suggestions on what to pair dinuguan with, in lieu of puto?

    Tapos na ito this year, sabihin lang ng US tapos na pandemic and the world will follow.

    Bayaan na natin China sa zero covid nila

    Bakit pala wala natatawa dito sa China sa "zero covid policy" nila?

    Ano na ba nangyari kung saan nangaling itong bwisit na covid? Parang Marcos lang China meron revision nangyayari. [emoji23]

    Puro sa west na naka concentrate eh yun hayop na nagkalat nitong sakit eh nakakaligtas

    Tit for tat...

    Although the Philippines has opened its borders to other tourists, it is still requiring Taiwanese to undergo seven days of quarantine because it is not recognizing the country's vaccination certificates, possibly leading to the delayed entry of Filipino workers into Taiwan.

    On Thursday (Feb. 10), the Philippines lifted a nearly two-year ban on foreign tourists and is allowing those travelers who are fully vaccinated and test negative for the virus to enter the country without needing to undergo quarantine. However, the Bureau of Quarantine (BOQ) is forcing tourists from Taiwan to continue to undergo the seven-day quarantine because it does not recognize the vaccination cards from Taiwan, citing the country's lack of membership in the World Health Organization (WHO), according to Filipino recruitment consultant Emmanuel Geslani.

    WHO: end of pandemic? anong pinagsasabi niyo?

    WHO chief scientist: pandemic has not ended as more variants expected | Reuters

    CAPE TOWN, Feb 11 (Reuters) - The World Health Organization's chief scientist, Soumya Swaminathan, said on Friday that the world was not yet at the end of the COVID-19 pandemic as there would be more coronavirus variants.

    "We have seen the virus evolve, mutate ... so we know there will be more variants, more variants of concern, so we are not at the end of the pandemic," Swaminathan told reporters in South Africa, where she was visiting vaccine manufacturing facilities with WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.

    research on flu and coronaviruses was being done in the US pero pinagbawalan ni Obama coz it was too dangerous

    ung tinatawag na gain-of-function (making viruses more dangerous)

    2014
    White House to Cut Funding for Risky Biological Study - The New York Times
    Prompted by controversy over dangerous research and recent laboratory accidents, the White House announced Friday that it would temporarily halt all new funding for experiments that seek to study certain infectious agents by making them more dangerous.

    It also encouraged scientists involved in such research on the influenza, SARS and MERS viruses to voluntarily pause their work while its risks were reassessed.
    research was outsourced to China

    The EcoHealth Alliance is a nongovernmental research group that focuses on emerging diseases caused by human and animal interactions. The National Institutes of Health has consistently funded the organization for projects since at least 2002.

    In 2014, the NIH approved a grant to EcoHealth Alliance designated for research into “Understanding the Risk of Bat Coronavirus Emergence.” The project involved collaborating with researchers at the Wuhan Institute of Virology to study coronaviruses in bats and the risk of potential transfer to humans.

    The original five-year grant was reapproved by the Trump administration in July 2019. In total, $3,378,896 in NIH funding was directed from the government to the project.

    The project, which was established “to understand what factors allow coronaviruses, including close relatives to SARS, to evolve and jump into the human population,” yielded 20 scientific reports on how zoonotic diseases may transfer from bats to humans.

    Over the course of the two grants approved by the NIH for EcoHealth Alliance, the Wuhan Institute received about $600,000 from the NIH, according to Robert Kessler, a spokesperson for EcoHealth Alliance. The funding was a fee for the collection and analysis of viral samples.

    In the grant approved in 2014, about $133,000 was sent to the institute in the first four years and about $66,000 in the past year. In the second grant approved in 2019, about $76,000 was budgeted for the Wuhan Institute, though no money was sent before the grant's termination.
    they were performing gain of function research in wuhan

    gain of function is deliberately making a virus more infectious (like manipulating or recombining genes from other viruses)

    after reading about this stuff for more than 2 years i'm convinced SARSCOV2 is an engineered virus and it leaked from a wuhan lab

    gusto niyo mag comment ako re china's zero covid policy?

    sige

    why is china so hellbent on its zero covid policy?

    maybe they know something about the virus that western countries don't or don't want to admit?

    maybe china knows how dangerous the virus really is so they don't want to let the virus rip across their population like what the UK and US is doing

    maybe western governments also know but they're afraid the public cannot handle the truth

    what if the virus is like airborne HIV

    those who got infected and "recovered" aren't really recovered

    the virus may be depleting immune cells and AIDS-like symptoms will manifest later

    what if that's what china knows kaya zero covid policy sila

    what if there's no such thing as "back to normal" as in pre-covid normal

    a new disease was introduced to mankind





    the new normal is a sicker population



    cardiologists will be busier in the new normal

    Heart-disease risk soars after COVID — even with a mild case




    -


    4am na pala

    good night

    my opinion,
    china knows there's a lot of stigma stuck to it like tikoy..
    they're trying to wipe off that stigma.

    Sometimes overanalysis is, just that, overanalysis and hoping to strike hot.

    the Establishment is maintaining the narrative that the virus evolved naturally

    coz if they admit it's a lab leak, it will pull US NIH into the issue coz they funded coronavirus research via the NGO Ecohealth Alliance

    overanalysis?

    what i'm doing is not even close to overanalysis

    i'm just skimming the surface

    most of you only read news articles

    how about moving a little bit... just a little bit beyond that?

    this from a US government website... not a fringe website... not a conspiracy website... A US GOV'T WEBSITE

    SARS-CoV-2 and NIAID-supported Bat Coronavirus Research | NIH: National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases

    An Analysis: Evolutionary Distance of SARS-CoV-2 and Bat Coronaviruses Studied Under the NIH-supported Research Grant to EcoHealth Alliance

    The research that NIH approved under the grant to EcoHealth Alliance with a subaward to the Wuhan Institute of Virology in Wuhan, China sought to understand how animal coronaviruses, especially bat coronaviruses, evolve naturally in the environment and have the potential to become transmissible to the human population. This research included studying viral diversity in bat reservoirs, surveying people who work in live animal markets or other occupations with high exposure to wildlife for evidence of bat coronavirus infection and analyzing data to predict which newly discovered viruses pose the greatest threat to human health.

    it's trying to find out what really happened, because the person who knows what really happened, refuses to talk.

    True, I don't have your time and critical thinking to delve into such matters. Kaya for me, that's overanalysis. That is way too much research for me. I'll stick to news report and tsikot for any info tidbits. Bottomline is sometimes just enough information is fine anyway. Let the experts handle the nitty gritty stuff.
