SIDNEY POWELL: I’ve just got some stunning evidence from a witness, a high-ranking military officer who was present when SmartMatic was designed. And I’m gonna just read you some of these statements, if you don’t mind, so I get them exactly right: From the Affidavit: Designed in a way that the system could change the vote of each voter without being detected. He wanted the software itself to function in such a manner that if the voter were to place their thumbprint or fingerprint on a scanner, then the thumbprint would be tied to a record of the voter’s name and identity as having voted, but that voter would not be tracked to the changed vote. He made it clear that the system would have to be set up but not leave any evidence of the changed vote for the specific voter, and that there would be no evidence to show, and nothing to contradict that the name and the fingerprint or thumbprint was going with a changed vote. SmartMatic agreed to create such a system and produced the software and the hardware that accomplished the result for President [Hugo] Chavez.

greatgameindia--2020-11-18--Portuguese Court Rules PCR Tests As Unreliable & Unlawful To Quarantine People

A Portuguese appeals court has ruled that PCR tests are unreliable and that it is unlawful to quarantine people based solely on a PCR test .
The court stated , the test ’ s reliability depends on the number of cycles used and the viral load present .
Citing Jaafar et al .
2020 , the court concludes that The court further notes that the cycle threshold used for the PCR tests currently being made in Portugal is unknown .
The threshold cycles used in PCR tests in India is between 37 and 40 , which makes the reliability of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and the false positive rate as high as 97 % .
This case concerned the fact that four people had been quarantined by the Regional Health Authority .
Of these , one had tested positive for COVID using a PCR test ; the other three were deemed to have undergone a high risk of exposure .
Consequently , the Regional Health Authority decided that all four were infectious and a health hazard , which required that they go into isolation .
The court ’ s summary of the case to rule against the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as follows : “ Given how much scientific doubt exists — as voiced by experts , i.e.
, those who matter — about the reliability of the PCR tests , given the lack of information concerning the tests ’ analytical parameters , and in the absence of a physician ’ s diagnosis supporting the existence of infection or risk , there is no way this court would ever be able to determine whether C was indeed a carrier of the SARS-CoV-2 virus , or whether A , B and D had been at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” It is also important to remember PCR was invented as a way to create copies of genetic material .
Its was never intended to be a diagnostic tool .
The standard coronavirus tests are throwing up a huge number of positive cases daily .
These tests are done based on faulty WHO protocols which are designed to include false positives cases as well .
This fact about false positives of PCR Tests was first noted in public by Dr. Beda M. Stadler , a Swiss biologist , emeritus professor , and former @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the University of Bern .
Earlier , the WHO ’ s testing protocol was even questioned by Finland ’ s national health authority .
WHO had called on countries to test as many patients as possible for coronavirus .
Finland ran out of testing capacity and began limiting coronavirus tests to the most vulnerable groups and healthcare personnel only .
Finland ’ s national health authority said that testing people with mild symptoms would be a waste of healthcare resources .
In a startling disclosure , Finland ’ s head of health security @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the WHO doesn ’ t understand pandemics and that their Coronavirus testing protocol is illogical and doesn ’ t work .
So , if the WHO ’ s testing protocols are indeed based on the most reliable , accurate and well sourced technologies and research methodologies available worldwide , shouldn ’ t they have known about its negligible effectiveness and its impact in causing panic and chaos ?

A Portuguese appeals court has ruled that PCR tests are unreliable and that it is unlawful to quarantine people based solely on a PCR test.
Must Watch: Would you live on 3D Printed Mars for a year for $60,000?
The court stated, the test’s reliability depends on the number of cycles used and the viral load present. Citing Jaafar et al. 2020, the court concludes that
“if someone is tested by PCR as positive when a threshold of 35 cycles or higher is used (as is the rule in most laboratories in Europe and the US), the probability that said person is infected is less than 3%, and the probability that said result is a false positive is 97%.”
The court further notes that the cycle threshold used for the PCR tests currently being made in Portugal is unknown.
The threshold cycles used in PCR tests in India is between 37 and 40, which makes the reliability of the PCR test less than 3% and the false positive rate as high as 97%.

The court’s summary of the case to rule against the Regional Health Authority’s appeal reads as follows:
“Given how much scientific doubt exists — as voiced by experts, i.e., those who matter — about the reliability of the PCR tests, given the lack of information concerning the tests’ analytical parameters, and in the absence of a physician’s diagnosis supporting the existence of infection or risk, there is no way this court would ever be able to determine whether C was indeed a carrier of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, or whether A, B and D had been at a high risk of exposure to it.”
It is also important to remember PCR was invented as a way to create copies of genetic material. Its was never intended to be a diagnostic tool.
The standard coronavirus tests are throwing up a huge number of positive cases daily. These tests are done based on faulty WHO protocols which are designed to include false positives cases as well.
This fact about false positives of PCR Tests was first noted in public by Dr. Beda M. Stadler, a Swiss biologist, emeritus professor, and former director of the Institute of Immunology at the University of Bern.
So if we do a PCR corona test on an immune person, it is not a virus that is detected, but a small shattered part of the viral genome. The test comes back positive for as long as there are tiny shattered parts of the virus left. Correct: Even if the infectious viruses are long dead, a corona test can come back positive, because the PCR method multiplies even a tiny fraction of the viral genetic material enough [to be detected].
Earlier, the WHO’s testing protocol was even questioned by Finland’s national health authority. WHO had called on countries to test as many patients as possible for coronavirus.
Finland ran out of testing capacity and began limiting coronavirus tests to the most vulnerable groups and healthcare personnel only. Finland’s national health authority said that testing people with mild symptoms would be a waste of healthcare resources.
In a startling disclosure, Finland’s head of health security, Mika Salminen dismissed WHO advisory saying the WHO doesn’t understand pandemics and that their Coronavirus testing protocol is illogical and doesn’t work.
So, if the WHO’s testing protocols are indeed based on the most reliable, accurate and well sourced technologies and research methodologies available worldwide, shouldn’t they have known about its negligible effectiveness and its impact in causing panic and chaos? Indeed the WHO knows it doesn’t work and moreover this is not the first time such criticisms have been voiced.
In the past in 2010, the WHO was caught faking a pandemic and was forced to admit that its methodology of measuring the virality or the spread of the disease, instead of its severity was incorrect.

greatgameindia--2020-11-19--NEW STUDY: Even A Military Enforced Lockdown Cannot Stop Coronavirus

Just days after the Portuguese appeals court ruled that PCR tests are unreliable and that it is unlawful to quarantine people based solely on a PCR test , now a new study by the New England Journal of Medicine has revealed that there is absolutely no correlation between lockdowns and the suppression of coronavirus , infact even a military enforced lockdown can not stop coronavirus .
The New England Journal of Medicine has published a study that goes to the heart of the issue of lockdowns .
The question has always been whether and to what extent a lockdown , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the virus .
If so , you can make an argument that at least lockdowns , despite their astronomical social and economic costs , achieve something .
If not , nations of the world have embarked on a catastrophic experiment that has destroyed billions of lives , and all expectation of human rights and liberties , with no payoff at all .
The American Institute for Economic Research ( AIER ) has long highlighted studies that show no gain in virus management from lockdowns .
Even as early as April , a major @ @ @ @ @ @ @ endemic in 70 days after the first round of infection , regardless of policies .
The largest global study of lockdowns compared with deaths as published in The Lancet found no association between coercive stringencies and deaths per million .
To test further might seem superfluous but , for whatever reason , governments all over the world , including in the US , still are under the impression that they can affect viral transmissions through a range of “ nonpharmaceutical interventions ” ( NPIs ) like mandatory masks , forced human separation , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ business and school closures , and extreme travel restrictions .
Nothing like this has been tried on this scale in the whole of human history , so one might suppose that policy makers have some basis for their confidence that these measures accomplish something .
A study conducted by Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in cooperation with the Naval Medical Research Center sought to test lockdownsm along with testing and isolation .
In May , 3,143 new recruits to the Marines were given the option to participate in a study of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ study was called CHARM , which stands for COVID-19 Health Action Response for Marines .
Of the recruits asked , a total of 1,848 young people agreed to be guinea pigs in this experiment which involved “ which included weekly qPCR testing and blood sampling for IgG antibody assessment.
” In addition , the CHARM study volunteers who did test positively “ on the day of enrollment ( day 0 ) or on day 7 or day 14 were separated from their roommates and were placed in isolation.
” What did the recruits @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and , as you will see , they faced an even more strict regime that has existed in civilian life in most places .
All recruits , even those not in the CHARM group , did the following .
All recruits wore double-layered cloth masks at all times indoors and outdoors , except when sleeping or eating ; practiced social distancing of at least 6 feet ; were not allowed to leave campus ; did not have access to personal electronics and other items that might contribute to surface transmission ; and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in double-occupancy rooms with sinks , ate in shared dining facilities , and used shared bathrooms .
All recruits cleaned their rooms daily , sanitized bathrooms after each use with bleach wipes , and ate preplated meals in a dining hall that was cleaned with bleach after each platoon had eaten .
Most instruction and exercises were conducted outdoors .
All movement of recruits was supervised , and unidirectional flow was implemented , with designated building entry and exit points to minimize contact among persons .
All recruits , regardless of participation in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ symptom screening .
Six instructors who were assigned to each platoon worked in 8-hour shifts and enforced the quarantine measures .
If recruits reported any signs or symptoms consistent with Covid-19 , they reported to sick call , underwent rapid qPCR testing for SARS-CoV-2 , and were placed in isolation pending the results of testing .
Instructors were also restricted to campus , were required to wear masks , were provided with preplated meals , and underwent daily temperature checks and symptom screening .
Instructors who were assigned to a platoon in which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ qPCR testing for SARS-CoV-2 , and , if the result was positive , the instructor was removed from duty .
Recruits and instructors were prohibited from interacting with campus support staff , such as janitorial and food-service personnel .

The reputation of Marine basic training is that it is tough going but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ level .
Also , this is an environment where those in charge do not mess around .
There was surely close to 100 % compliance , as compared with , for example , a typical college campus .
What were the results ?
The virus still spread , though 90 % of those who tested positive were without symptoms .
Incredibly , 2 % of the CHARM recruits still contracted the virus , even if all but one remained asymptomatic .
“ Our study showed that in a group of predominantly young male @ @ @ @ @ @ @ positive for SARS-CoV-2 , as determined by qPCR assay , during a 2-week , strictly enforced quarantine.
” And how does this compare to the control group that was not tested and not isolated in the case of a positive case ?
Have a look at this chart from the study : Which is to say that the nonparticipants actually contracted the virus at a slightly lower rate than those who were under an extreme regime .
Conversely , extreme enforcement of NPIs plus more frequent testing and isolation was associated with a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ m grateful to Don Wolt for drawing my attention to this study , which , so far as I know , has received very little attention from any media source at all , despite having been published in the New England Journal of Medicine on November 11 .
Here are four actual media headlines about the study that miss the point entirely : • US Navy : “ Navy/Marine Corps COVID-19 Study Findings Published in New England Journal of Medicine ” No national news story that I have found highlighted the most important @ @ @ @ @ @ @ frequent testing and isolation among military recruits did nothing to stop the virus .
The study is important because of the social structure of control here .
It ’ s one thing to observe no effects from national lockdowns .
There are countless variables here that could be invoked as cautionary notes : demographics , population density , preexisting immunities , degree of compliance , and so on .

The New England Journal of Medicine has published a study that goes to the heart of the issue of lockdowns. The question has always been whether and to what extent a lockdown, however extreme, is capable of suppressing the virus. If so, you can make an argument that at least lockdowns, despite their astronomical social and economic costs, achieve something. If not, nations of the world have embarked on a catastrophic experiment that has destroyed billions of lives, and all expectation of human rights and liberties, with no payoff at all.
The American Institute for Economic Research (AIER) has long highlighted studies that show no gain in virus management from lockdowns.

The largest global study of lockdowns compared with deaths as published in The Lancet found no association between coercive stringencies and deaths per million.
To test further might seem superfluous but, for whatever reason, governments all over the world, including in the US, still are under the impression that they can affect viral transmissions through a range of “nonpharmaceutical interventions” (NPIs) like mandatory masks, forced human separation, stay-at-home orders, bans of gatherings, business and school closures, and extreme travel restrictions. Nothing like this has been tried on this scale in the whole of human history, so one might suppose that policy makers have some basis for their confidence that these measures accomplish something.

What did the recruits have to do? The study explains, and, as you will see, they faced an even more strict regime that has existed in civilian life in most places. All recruits, even those not in the CHARM group, did the following.
All recruits wore double-layered cloth masks at all times indoors and outdoors, except when sleeping or eating; practiced social distancing of at least 6 feet; were not allowed to leave campus; did not have access to personal electronics and other items that might contribute to surface transmission; and routinely washed their hands. They slept in double-occupancy rooms with sinks, ate in shared dining facilities, and used shared bathrooms. All recruits cleaned their rooms daily, sanitized bathrooms after each use with bleach wipes, and ate preplated meals in a dining hall that was cleaned with bleach after each platoon had eaten. Most instruction and exercises were conducted outdoors. All movement of recruits was supervised, and unidirectional flow was implemented, with designated building entry and exit points to minimize contact among persons. All recruits, regardless of participation in the study, underwent daily temperature and symptom screening. Six instructors who were assigned to each platoon worked in 8-hour shifts and enforced the quarantine measures. If recruits reported any signs or symptoms consistent with Covid-19, they reported to sick call, underwent rapid qPCR testing for SARS-CoV-2, and were placed in isolation pending the results of testing.

The reputation of Marine basic training is that it is tough going but this really does take it to another level. Also, this is an environment where those in charge do not mess around. There was surely close to 100% compliance, as compared with, for example, a typical college campus.
What were the results? The virus still spread, though 90% of those who tested positive were without symptoms. Incredibly, 2% of the CHARM recruits still contracted the virus, even if all but one remained asymptomatic. “Our study showed that in a group of predominantly young male military recruits, approximately 2% became positive for SARS-CoV-2, as determined by qPCR assay, during a 2-week, strictly enforced quarantine.”
And how does this compare to the control group that was not tested and not isolated in the case of a positive case?
Have a look at this chart from the study:
Which is to say that the nonparticipants actually contracted the virus at a slightly lower rate than those who were under an extreme regime. Conversely, extreme enforcement of NPIs plus more frequent testing and isolation was associated with a greater degree of infection.
I’m grateful to Don Wolt for drawing my attention to this study, which, so far as I know, has received very little attention from any media source at all, despite having been published in the New England Journal of Medicine on November 11.
Here are four actual media headlines about the study that miss the point entirely:
CNN: “Many military Covid-19 cases are asymptomatic, studies show”
SciTech Daily: “Asymptomatic COVID-19 Transmission Revealed Through Study of 2,000 Marine Recruits”
ABC: “Broad study of Marine recruits shows limits of COVID-19 symptom screening”
US Navy: “Navy/Marine Corps COVID-19 Study Findings Published in New England Journal of Medicine”
No national news story that I have found highlighted the most important finding of all: extreme quarantine plus frequent testing and isolation among military recruits did nothing to stop the virus.
The study is important because of the social structure of control here. It’s one thing to observe no effects from national lockdowns. There are countless variables here that could be invoked as cautionary notes: demographics, population density, preexisting immunities, degree of compliance, and so on. But with this Marine study, you have a near homogeneous group based on age, health, and densities of living. And even here, you see confirmed what so many other studies have shown: lockdowns are pointlessly destructive. They do not manage the disease. They crush human liberty and produce astonishing costs, such as 5.53 million years of lost life from the closing of schools alone.
The lockdowners keep telling us to pay attention to the science. That’s what we are doing. When the results contradict their pro-compulsion narrative, they pretend that the studies do not exist and barrel ahead with their scary plans to disable all social functioning in the presence of a virus. Lockdowns are not science. They never have been. They are an experiment in social/political top-down management that is without precedent in cost to life and liberty.

greatgameindia--2020-11-20--Undercover Investigation: How Chinese Citizens Infiltrate America

An undercover investigation by Benefit Fraud Task Force and ICE Homeland Security Investigations has revealed how Chinese citizens infiltrate America .
On November 4 , Chang Yu “ Andy ” He , a California resident and owner of the “ Fair Price Immigration Service ” , pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit marriage fraud in connection with a scheme to coordinate sham marriages between Chinese nationals and U.S. citizens in exchange for some serious cash .
The case highlights the pervasiveness of — and potential profit from — such fraud .
According to the plea agreement in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ November 2019 , He recruited citizens to enter into marriages with Chinese nationals , who then applied for immigration benefits with USCIS .
As ICE Homeland Security Investigations ( HSI ) explains , the case arose as part of an undercover investigation by HSI ’ s Los Angeles Document and Benefit Fraud Task Force , starting in March 2017 , when HSI received a tip from an anonymous source .
At least three HSI agents were tasked with going undercover and impersonating citizens interested in marrying three Chinese nationals in exchange for payment @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by He , an HSI agent met with Xiaojun Han , a 40-year-old Chinese national , to enable Han to enter into a sham marriage and apply with USCIS for a green card .
The agent got $ 10,000 up front to enter into the marriage , and He told the agent that he would get $ 25,000 when Han received her lawful permanent resident status and an additional $ 5,000 at the end of the process .
The defendant admitted that he coached the faux partners in navigating the immigration process , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ such as joint bank accounts and joint apartment leases ) and having them memorizing answers to questions that USCIS was likely to ask .
In addition , He instructed the pairs to “ keep clothes in the apartments where the couples supposedly lived together , and visit the apartment several days a week so the neighbors would see them together.
” As I noted in a November 3 post , “ site visits ” by USCIS at the purported marital residence “ are not standard operating procedure in all cases , but not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ where there are indicators of fraud .

An undercover investigation by Benefit Fraud Task Force and ICE Homeland Security Investigations has revealed how Chinese citizens infiltrate America.
Must Watch: Would you live on 3D Printed Mars for a year for $60,000?
On November 4, Chang Yu “Andy” He, a California resident and owner of the “Fair Price Immigration Service”, pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit marriage fraud in connection with a scheme to coordinate sham marriages between Chinese nationals and U.S. citizens in exchange for some serious cash. The case highlights the pervasiveness of — and potential profit from — such fraud.
According to the plea agreement in the case, between January 2018 and November 2019, He recruited citizens to enter into marriages with Chinese nationals, who then applied for immigration benefits with USCIS.
As ICE Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) explains, the case arose as part of an undercover investigation by HSI’s Los Angeles Document and Benefit Fraud Task Force, starting in March 2017, when HSI received a tip from an anonymous source. At least three HSI agents were tasked with going undercover and impersonating citizens interested in marrying three Chinese nationals in exchange for payment.
In one of the cases orchestrated by He, an HSI agent met with Xiaojun Han, a 40-year-old Chinese national, to enable Han to enter into a sham marriage and apply with USCIS for a green card. The agent got $10,000 up front to enter into the marriage, and He told the agent that he would get $25,000 when Han received her lawful permanent resident status and an additional $5,000 at the end of the process.

The defendant admitted that he coached the faux partners in navigating the immigration process, including by creating a paper trail (such as joint bank accounts and joint apartment leases) and having them memorizing answers to questions that USCIS was likely to ask.
In addition, He instructed the pairs to “keep clothes in the apartments where the couples supposedly lived together, and visit the apartment several days a week so the neighbors would see them together.” As I noted in a November 3 post, “site visits” by USCIS at the purported marital residence “are not standard operating procedure in all cases, but not completely unheard of, either.” Especially where there are indicators of fraud.
As part of this scheme, He met with the undercover agent at a public library in Rosemont, Calif., to prepare Han’s paperwork. In addition, He also met with an unnamed co-defendant and two other agents to arrange additional bogus unions.
HSI speculates that clients learned about these services through advertisements in Chinese newspapers and the old-fashioned way — through “word of mouth”. The word definitely got out — one of He’s clients is from St. Paul, Minnesota.
In any event, He is facing up to five years in prison. And speaking of his clients, two co-defendants who paid for his services have pled guilty to one count each of conspiracy to commit marriage fraud; one received a year probation, and the other was awaiting sentencing.
Han and another individual involved in the matter, Xiulan “Cindy” Wang, ostensibly have not pled. Their cases are scheduled for March 16. Wang is identified as “the owner of Pacific Bizhub Consulting”, but it is not clear whether she was a potential bride, or a business partner of He.
Apparently, aliens who are interested in such illicit engagements are willing to pay a high price. Chinese nationals involved in He’s arrangements paid up to $60,000, explaining why would-be fraudulent spouses could receive an estimated $40,000 for their assistance. How much is a green card worth?

greatgameindia--2020-11-19--EXPOSED: How Peter Daszak Of EcoHealth Alliance Orchestrated The Natural Origin Of Covid-19 Myth

Emails obtained by U.S .
Right to Know show that a statement in The Lancet authored by 27 prominent public health scientists condemning “ conspiracy theories suggesting that COVID-19 does not have a natural origin ” was organized by employees of EcoHealth Alliance , a non-profit group that has received millions of dollars of U.S. taxpayer funding to genetically manipulate coronaviruses with scientists at the Wuhan Institute of Virology .
The emails obtained via public records requests show that EcoHealth Alliance President Peter Daszak drafted the Lancet statement , and that he intended it to “ not be identifiable as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” but rather to be seen as “ simply a letter from leading scientists ” .
Daszak wrote that he wanted “ to avoid the appearance of a political statement ” .
The scientists ’ letter appeared in The Lancet on February 18 , just one week after the World Health Organization announced that the disease caused by the novel coronavirus would be named COVID-19 .
The 27 authors “ strongly condemn [ ed ] conspiracy theories suggesting that COVID-19 does not have a natural origin , ” and reported that scientists from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ coronavirus originated in wildlife.
” The letter included no scientific references to refute a lab-origin theory of the virus .
One scientist , Linda Saif , asked via email whether it would be useful “ to add just one or 2 statements in support of why nCOV is not a lab generated virus and is naturally occuring ?
Seems critical to scientifically refute such claims !
” Daszak responded , “ I think we should probably stick to a broad statement.
” Growing calls to investigate the Wuhan Institute of Virology as a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ increased scrutiny of EcoHealth Alliance .
The emails show how members of EcoHealth Alliance played an early role in framing questions about possible lab origin of SARS-CoV-2 as “ crackpot theories that need to be addressed , ” as Daszak told The Guardian .

After US, How Smartmatic Is Planning To Rig Indian Elections
According to the witness affidavit of a high ranking military officer the Smartmatic Voting machines were specifically designed in a way that the system could change the vote of each voter without being detected in order to steal US Elections.
The explosive witness affidavit of the high-ranking military officer in possession of former federal prosecutor Sidney Powell is part of the evidence her legal team is gathering against foreign interference in 2020 US Elections.
The same company Smartmatic smuggled the biometric identities of Indians to create a parallel database in Taiwan to be used in voting machines.
Complaints and letters to the Ministry of Home Affairs, Ministry of Finance, CFT Cell and RTIs in possession of GreatGameIndia sheds light on a criminal conspiracy by Smartmatic Services Corporation and APR Biometric ID Services Private Limited to smuggle Biometric data of Indian citizens to Taiwan. The biometric data was collected in a pilot project of the National Population Register (NPR).
Subscribe to GreatGameIndia
During the Pilot Project conducted in seven states, including Himachal Pradesh, Sikkim, Meghalaya, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh and Orissa at 20 locations, the aforesaid Companies collected biometric and demographic data of approximately two lakh Indian individuals which was stored in the machines used for data collection – the PARmobiles.
Edgar Zorrilla, then Senior Vice President of Smartmatic and advisor to CEO along with other officers, told the whistleblower that the PARmobiles (80 in number) were imported by Smartmatic under the name of its previous partner Smart Identity Devices Private Limited and were stored in a warehouse. Further, the said officers hatched a criminal conspiracy to export these devices with the data in them to Taiwan.
According to the whistleblower, the Companies sought custody of the PARmobile machines and fingerprint scanners in order to extract biometric data and sell it to foreign countries. The value of this data in international black market is between US $20 million to US $100 million. The machines and the fingerprint scanners were sent by the Court to Forensic Science Laboratory for analysis.
The Department of Electronics and Information Technology, the nodal agency appointed by the Registrar General of India to carry out the National Population Register’s Pilot Project was urged to intervene in the matter. The said case is still pending in the Patiala House Court, New Delhi.

greatgameindia--2020-12-07--Foreign Funds Colonising Indian Startups – Naukri.com Founder Sanjeev Bikchandani

Naukri.com founder Sanjeev Bikchandani has just confirmed what GreatGameIndia has been warning since the beginning – about the dangers of Foreign Direct Investment in India .
Bikchandani said foreign funds are the new East India Company that are colonising successful startups in India by transferring ownership overseas to skip Indian regulations and taxes .
Bikchandani says an estimated Rs 17 lakh crore of market cap has been transferred abroad after young Indian startups were forced to shift their company domicile overseas by foreign investors promising the funds they need for growth .
“ Shades of the East India Company type @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Indian customers , Indian developers , Indian workforce .

Newly released FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) document has revealed deaths of 6 participants during Pfizer’s COVID vaccine trials. According to one Pfizer trial participant, after the second shot, he woke up with chills, shaking so hard he cracked a tooth. “It hurt to even just lay in my bed sheet,” he said.

The FDA announced on Tuesday that two trial participants have died after receiving their coronavirus vaccine. According to Maariv, the sister publication of The Jerusalem Post, the FDA announced on Tuesday that there currently is not enough research to guarantee the vaccine’s safety for immunocompromised groups, pregnant women and children.
According to the published data, six of the participants in the experiment died, two of whom received the vaccine and four of the control group were given placebo.
The Jerusalem Post meanwhile changed the headline of their story from FDA announces deaths of two Pfizer vaccine trial participants (archive link) to First Pfizer coronavirus vaccines expected to land on Wednesday (live link).
The 53-page briefing report (read full report below), released on Wednesday morning is the first detailed analysis of the vaccine trial by Pfizer and BioNTech, which found in November that its vaccine was 95 per cent effective in preventing coronavirus infections.

According to the published FDA report:
A higher proportion of vaccine recipients reported adverse events compared with placebo recipients, and this imbalance was driven by reactogenicity (solicited adverse events) reported in the 7 days following vaccination and unsolicited adverse events corresponding to reactogenicity symptoms among participants not in the reactogenicity subset.
The frequency and severity of systemic AEs were higher in the younger than the older age groups. Within each age group, the frequency and severity of systemic AEs was higher after Dose 2 than Dose 1, except for vomiting and diarrhea, which was generally similar regardless of dose. For both age groups, fatigue, headache and new/worsened muscle pain were most common.
One Pfizer trial participant told CNBC that after the second shot, he woke up with chills, shaking so hard he cracked a tooth. “It hurt to even just lay in my bed sheet,” he said.
Others experienced headaches and fatigue.
When trial participant Yasir Batalvi first read Moderna’s 22-page consent form warning of side effects ranging from nothing at all to death, he felt pretty worried, he told CNBC.
Due to number of reports of severe adverse reactions Moderna has already stopped testing the highest dose of its vaccine during the trial.
Meanwhile, another volunteer died during trial of COVID-19 vaccine developed by AstraZeneca and Oxford University. Earlier, drug giant AstraZeneca had stopped global trials of its coronavirus vaccine after it caused a mysterious illness in one of the volunteers. The company said it is investigating the cause of the unexplained illness but did not say who had stopped the trial. The mysterious illness is reported to be an inflammatory syndrome known as transverse myelitis which may lead to paralysis.
There is a lot of unrest and distrust among people with regards to the COVID-19 vaccine and regulators and companies alike have been working to ensure people trust in the vaccine authorization process.
However, as reported by GreatGameIndia earlier, a senior managerial executive of AstraZeneca has revealed in shocking details that the company could not be on the receiving end of any constitutional motion or face legal action for any possible side effects or unwanted reactions induced by its Covid-19 vaccine.
The company has agreements with governments as per which AstraZeneca cannot be held responsible for any side-effects of the vaccine and those affected will have no legal recourse.
AstraZeneca has been granted protection from future product liability claims related to its COVID-19 vaccine by most of the countries with which it has struck supply agreements.

The woman at the center of the operation, a Chinese national named Fang Fang or Christine Fang, targeted up-and-coming local politicians in the Bay Area and across the country who had the potential to make it big on the national stage.
Through campaign fundraising, extensive networking, personal charisma, and romantic or sexual relationships with at least two Midwestern mayors, Fang was able to gain proximity to political power, according to current and former U.S. intelligence officials and one former elected official.

Who is Chinese Spy Fang Fang or Christine Fang
Fang’s friends and acquaintances said she was in her late 20s or early 30s when she was based in the U.S. and was enrolled as a student at a Bay Area university.
She used political gatherings, civic society conferences, campaign rallies, and campus events to connect with elected officials and other prominent figures, according to U.S. intelligence officials, Bay Area political operatives, former students, and current and former elected officials who knew her.
She also engaged in sexual or romantic relationships with at least two mayors of Midwestern cities over a period of about three years, according to one U.S. intelligence official and one former elected official.
At least two separate sexual interactions with elected officials, including one of these Midwestern mayors, were caught on FBI electronic surveillance of Fang, according to two intelligence officials. Axios was unable to identify or speak to the elected officials.
U.S. intelligence officials believe China’s spy services have become more aggressive and emboldened, including in their U.S.-focused influence and political intelligence-gathering operations. Fang’s case shows how a single determined individual, allegedly working for Beijing, can gain access to sensitive U.S. political circles.
How Chinese Intelligence cultivated Biden Family
Details of one such influence operation was published by GreatGameIndia on how the Chinese intelligence cultivated the Biden family. The intel report disclosed a detailed narration of important events and interactions which took place during meetings between the Biden family and Chinese tycoons. As a direct result of the elaborate influence operation China managed to steal America’s nuclear secrets. As part of the operation, Joe Biden also blocked the sale of Russian Cryogenic rocket engine technology to India describing it as being “dangerous”.
Recently, an undercover investigation by Benefit Fraud Task Force and ICE Homeland Security Investigations revealed how Chinese citizens infiltrate America.
