Bombshell Video Exposes Dr. Fauci & Bill Gates, History of Corruption, Greed and Connection to Wuhan Lab

Dr. Judy Mikovits a well known former virologist and health activist has released an explosive new book entitled “ Plague of Corruption ” which she co-authored with Kent Heckenlively which exposes the alleged criminality of Dr. Anthony Fauci , the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases , from the onset of the HIV outbreak in the early 1980s until today ’ s COVID-19 pandemic .
When she was part of the research community that turned HIV-AIDS from a fatal disease into a manageable one , she saw science at its best .

Dr. Judy Mikovits a well known former virologist and health activist has released an explosive new book entitled “Plague of Corruption” which she co-authored with Kent Heckenlively which exposes the alleged criminality of Dr. Anthony Fauci, the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, from the onset of the HIV outbreak in the early 1980s until today’s COVID-19 pandemic.
When she was part of the research community that turned HIV-AIDS from a fatal disease into a manageable one, she saw science at its best. But when her investigations questioned whether the use of animal tissue in medical research were unleashing devastating plagues of chronic diseases, such as autism and chronic fatigue syndrome, she saw science at its worst. If her suspicions are correct, we are looking at a complete realignment of scientific practices, including how we study and treat human disease.
Dr. Mikovits has spent twenty years at the National Cancer Institute, working with Dr. Frank Ruscetti, one of the founding fathers of human retrovirology, and has coauthored more than forty scientific papers. She co-founded and directed the first neuroimmune disease institute using a systems biology approach in 2006.
Her co-author, Kent Heckenlively, JD, is a former attorney, a founding editor of Age of Autism, and a science teacher. During college Heckenlively worked for Senator Pete Wilson, and in law school he was a writer and an editor of the school’s law review and spent his summers working for the US Attorney’s Office in San Francisco.
She claims her reputation was destroyed by the Health and Human Services. and the head of President Trump’s Coronavirus task force, Dr. Fauci.
Dr. Mikovits also scrupulously dissects “shelter in place” and every aspect of the way COVID-19 is currently being managed by governmental authorities.
Celebrated environmentalist and anti-vaccine activist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. concludes his foreword to Plague of Corruption with, “This account by Judy Mikovits and Kent Heckenlively is vitally important both to the health of our children and the vitality of our democracy. My father believed moral courage to be the rarest species of bravery. Rarer even than the physical courage of soldiers in battle or great intelligence. He thought it the one vital quality required to salvage the world. If we are to continue to enjoy democracy and protect our children from the forces that seek to commoditize humanity, then we need courageous scientists like Judy Mikovits who are willing to speak truth to power, even at terrible personal cost.”

@ @ @ @ @ @ @ Armed Forces Health Surveillance Branch recently published a study in the Journal Vaccine titled , Influenza vaccination and respiratory virus interference among Department of Defense personnel during the 2017–2018 influenza season .
The study examined virus interference in a Department of Defense population , this refers to the increased risk of other respiratory viruses as a result of , in this case , the influenza vaccine .
The study found that virus interference varied among vaccinated individuals for individual respiratory viruses , and found that for coronavirus in particular , in this study @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the flu vaccine had a 36 percent higher risk of contracting it The study compared the vaccination status of more than two thousand people with non-influenza respiratory viruses to more than three thousand people with pan-negative results .
The vaccination status of more than three thousand cases of influenza were compared to three different control groups , and appropriate adjustments were made .
The study points out that recently published studies have “ described the phenomenon of vaccine-associated virus interference ; that is , vaccinated individuals may be at increased risk for other @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the non-specific immunity associated with natural infection.
” The study goes on to emphasize that “ There has been limited evidence that the influenza vaccine may actually be associated with the virus interference process .
Other studies have found no association between influenza vaccination and increased respiratory virus risk.
” Other studies have found no association between the flu vaccine and an increased risk for other respiratory viruses , but when looking specifically at coronavirus , Wolff ’ s study found that “ Vaccine derived virus interference was significantly associated with coronavirus and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with vaccination was associated not only with most influenza viruses , but also parainfluenza , RSV , and non-influenza virus coinfections.
” Metapneumovirus causes both upper and lower respiratory disease in all ages .
Out of the 6120 people in the study with respiratory viruses other than influenza , those who received an influenza vaccine actually had a decreased risk of having other respiratory pathogens compared to the unvaccinated group .
Again , it ’ s important to be specific with what respiratory pathogens one may have an increased risk of contracting as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
This is why for some pathogens , no increased risk was observed , and in some cases a decreased risk was observed .
But again , specifically for coronavirus , a significant increased risk was observed .
With regards to the coronavirus and human metapneumovirus , the data in this study showed an increased risk of contraction within vaccinated individuals to be 36 percent greater .
But overall , the results showed “ little to no evidence supporting the association of virus interference and influenza vaccination.
” Furthermore , a study published @ @ @ @ @ @ @ found that “ Among children there was an increase in the hazard of ARI ( acute respiratory illness ) caused by non-influenza respiratory pathogens post-influenza vaccination compared to unvaccinated children during the same period…Patient perceptions of illness following influenza vaccination may be supported.
” The Department of Defense has a Global Respiratory Pathogen Surveillance Program ( DoDGRS ) , it ’ s a DoD-wide program established by the Global Emerging Infections Surveillance and Response System ( GEIS ) .
This is how Wolff was able to gather all of his data with regards @ @ @ @ @ @ @ influenza virus , and what other illnesses they experienced .
The Defense Health Agency/Armed Forces Health Surveillance Branch – Air Force Satellite Cell ( DHA/AFHSB – AF ) and United States Air Force School of Aerospace Medicine ( USAFSAM ) also provided access to the data .
According to the study above , “ significant protection with vaccination was associated not only with most influenza viruses , but also parainfluenza , RSV , and non-influenza virus coinfections.
” So , it does point out the benefits of influenza and suggests it ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that show it ’ s effective as well .
But there is conflicting research on the the flu vaccine and its effectiveness against influenza .
For example , Dr. Peter Doshi is an associate editor at The BMJ ( British Medical Journal ) and also an assistant professor of pharmaceutical health services research at the University of Maryland School of Pharmacy , published a paper in The BMJ titled “ Influenza : Marketing Vaccines By Marketing Disease.
” In it , he points out that the CDC pledges “ to base all public @ @ @ @ @ @ @ scientific data , openly and objectively derived , ” and how this isn ’ t the case when it comes to the flu vaccine and its marketing .
He stresses that “ the vaccine may be less beneficial and less safe than has been claimed , and that “ the threat of influenza seems to be overstated.
” He goes on to state : But perhaps the cleverest aspect of the influenza marketing strategy surrounds the claim that “ flu ” and “ influenza ” are the same .
The distinction seems subtle @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lack of awareness of the difference might be the primary reason few people realize that even the ideal influenza vaccine , matched perfectly to circulating strains of wild influenza and capable of stopping all influenza viruses , can only deal with a small part of the “ flu ” problem because most “ flu ” appears to have nothing to do with influenza .
Every year , hundreds of thousands of respiratory specimens are tested across the US .
Of those tested , on average 16 % are found to be influenza positive @ @ @ @ @ @ @ influenza is “ flu , ” but only one in six “ flus ” might be influenza .
It ’ s no wonder so many people feel that “ flu shots ” don ’ t work : for most flus , they can ’ t .
Dr. Alvin Moss , MD and professor at the West Virginia University School of Medicine emphasizes in this video : The flu vaccine happens to be the vaccine that causes the most injury in this country .
The vaccine injury compensation program , 40 percent of all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , but 60 percent of all the compensations are for the flu vaccine .
So a disproportionate number of vaccine related injuries are the flu shot .
I think many of you it ’ s been recommended to you that you get the flu shot , I don ’ t know if you ’ re aware of the fact , the CDC statistics are , that every year they look at vaccine effectiveness , for this particular year the vaccine effectiveness is 48 percent , so that means it ’ s not highly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all that effective , if you look at the scientific literature…the evidence to support giving the flu vaccine is moderate to weak .
It is not strong evidence .
They say the evidence to support giving the flu vaccine to people over the age of 65 is not there , it ’ s inconclusive .
So a lot of the things we ’ ve been told as Americans about vaccinations are not really based on the science .
( source ) The National Childhood Vaccine Injury ( NCVIA ) has already paid out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of vaccine injured children .
As astronomical as the monetary awards are , they ’ re even more alarming considering HHS claims that only an estimated 1 % of vaccine injuries are even reported to the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System ( VAERS ) .
Something to think about .
The information in this article shows that ’ s it ’ s ok to question , and that the science on vaccine safety is not ‘ settled.
’ We must ask ourselves , why are there terms like ‘ anti-vax ’ and why @ @ @ @ @ @ @ any information that paints vaccines in a concerning light ?
Surely the questioning of vaccine safety is in the best interest of all parties involved ?
At the end of the day , it ’ s not about who is right and who is wrong , and it ’ s not about one side or the other .

Greg. G Wolff, an Epidemiologist with the Armed Forces Health Surveillance Branch recently published a study in the Journal Vaccine titled, Influenza vaccination and respiratory virus interference among Department of Defense personnel during the 2017–2018 influenza season. The study examined virus interference in a Department of Defense population, this refers to the increased risk of other respiratory viruses as a result of, in this case, the influenza vaccine. The study found that virus interference varied among vaccinated individuals for individual respiratory viruses, and found that for coronavirus in particular, in this study, those who had been vaccinated with the flu vaccine had a 36 percent higher risk of contracting it
The study compared the vaccination status of more than two thousand people with non-influenza respiratory viruses to more than three thousand people with pan-negative results. The vaccination status of more than three thousand cases of influenza were compared to three different control groups, and appropriate adjustments were made.
The study points out that recently published studies have “described the phenomenon of vaccine-associated virus interference; that is, vaccinated individuals may be at increased risk for other respiratory viruses because they do not receive the non-specific immunity associated with natural infection.” The study goes on to emphasize that “There has been limited evidence that the influenza vaccine may actually be associated with the virus interference process.

Metapneumovirus causes both upper and lower respiratory disease in all ages.
Out of the 6120 people in the study with respiratory viruses other than influenza, those who received an influenza vaccine actually had a decreased risk of having other respiratory pathogens compared to the unvaccinated group. Again, it’s important to be specific with what respiratory pathogens one may have an increased risk of contracting as a result of being vaccinated against influenza. This is why for some pathogens, no increased risk was observed, and in some cases a decreased risk was observed. But again, specifically for coronavirus, a significant increased risk was observed.
With regards to the coronavirus and human metapneumovirus, the data in this study showed an increased risk of contraction within vaccinated individuals to be 36 percent greater.
The laboratory data in our study showed increased odds of coronavirus and human metapneumovirus in individuals receiving influenza vaccination…In our disease specific investigation, virus interference trends were noticed for coronavirus and human metapneumovirus…Examining non-influenza viruses specifically, the odds of both coronavirus and human metapneumovirus in vaccinated individuals were significantly higher when compared to unvaccinated individuals (OR = 1.36 and 1.51, respectively)
The study concluded that:
Receipt of influenza vaccination was not associated with virus interference among our population. Examining virus interference by specific respiratory viruses showed mixed results. Vaccine derived virus interference was significantly associated with coronavirus and human metapneumovirus; however, significant protection with vaccination was associated not only with most influenza viruses, but also parainfluenza, RSV, and non-influenza virus coinfections.
But overall, the results showed “little to no evidence supporting the association of virus interference and influenza vaccination.”
Furthermore, a study published in the same journal, Vaccine, found that“Among children there was an increase in the hazard of ARI (acute respiratory illness) caused by non-influenza respiratory pathogens post-influenza vaccination compared to unvaccinated children during the same period…Patient perceptions of illness following influenza vaccination may be supported.”
The Department of Defense has a Global Respiratory Pathogen Surveillance Program (DoDGRS), it’s a DoD-wide program established by the Global Emerging Infections Surveillance and Response System (GEIS). This is how Wolff was able to gather all of his data with regards to who had been vaccinated with the influenza virus, and what other illnesses they experienced. The Defense Health Agency/Armed Forces Health Surveillance Branch – Air Force Satellite Cell (DHA/AFHSB – AF) and United States Air Force School of Aerospace Medicine (USAFSAM) also provided access to the data.
Further Thoughts About Flu Vaccination
According to the study above, “significant protection with vaccination was associated not only with most influenza viruses, but also parainfluenza, RSV, and non-influenza virus coinfections.” So, it does point out the benefits of influenza and suggests it’s effective. It also sites multiple studies that show it’s effective as well.
But there is conflicting research on the the flu vaccine and its effectiveness against influenza. For example, Dr. Peter Doshi is an associate editor at The BMJ (British Medical Journal) and also an assistant professor of pharmaceutical health services research at the University of Maryland School of Pharmacy, published a paper in The BMJ titled “Influenza: Marketing Vaccines By Marketing Disease.” In it, he points out that the CDC pledges “to base all public health decisions on the highest quality of scientific data, openly and objectively derived,” and how this isn’t the case when it comes to the flu vaccine and its marketing. He stresses that “the vaccine may be less beneficial and less safe than has been claimed, and that “the threat of influenza seems to be overstated.”
He goes on to state:
But perhaps the cleverest aspect of the influenza marketing strategy surrounds the claim that “flu” and “influenza” are the same. The distinction seems subtle, and purely semantic. But general lack of awareness of the difference might be the primary reason few people realize that even the ideal influenza vaccine, matched perfectly to circulating strains of wild influenza and capable of stopping all influenza viruses, can only deal with a small part of the “flu” problem because most “flu” appears to have nothing to do with influenza. Every year, hundreds of thousands of respiratory specimens are tested across the US. Of those tested, on average 16% are found to be influenza positive. (fig 2).⇓ All influenza is “flu,” but only one in six “flus” might be influenza. It’s no wonder so many people feel that “flu shots” don’t work: for most flus, they can’t.
Dr. Alvin Moss, MD and professor at the West Virginia University School of Medicine emphasizes in this video:
The flu vaccine happens to be the vaccine that causes the most injury in this country. The vaccine injury compensation program, 40 percent of all vaccinations in this country are flu shots, but 60 percent of all the compensations are for the flu vaccine. So a disproportionate number of vaccine related injuries are the flu shot. I think many of you it’s been recommended to you that you get the flu shot, I don’t know if you’re aware of the fact, the CDC statistics are, that every year they look at vaccine effectiveness, for this particular year the vaccine effectiveness is 48 percent, so that means it’s not highly effective. It’s not even all that effective, if you look at the scientific literature…the evidence to support giving the flu vaccine is moderate to weak. It is not strong evidence. They say the evidence to support giving the flu vaccine to people over the age of 65 is not there, it’s inconclusive. So a lot of the things we’ve been told as Americans about vaccinations are not really based on the science. (source)
The National Childhood Vaccine Injury (NCVIA) has already paid out approximately $4 billion to compensate families of vaccine injured children. As astronomical as the monetary awards are, they’re even more alarming considering HHS claims that only an estimated 1% of vaccine injuries are even reported to the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS).
Something to think about. The information in this article shows that’s it’s ok to question, and that the science on vaccine safety is not ‘settled.’ We must ask ourselves, why are there terms like ‘anti-vax’ and why does big media constantly try to ridicule any information that paints vaccines in a concerning light? Surely the questioning of vaccine safety is in the best interest of all parties involved?
At the end of the day, it’s not about who is right and who is wrong, and it’s not about one side or the other. It’s about coming together in a peaceful manner and understanding the concerns that are being raised, and dealing with them, addressing, and responding to them appropriately. We cannot hold hate in our own being if we want to rid the world of it, and we cannot use ridicule and judgement against, otherwise we are simply perpetuating what we are trying to get rid of. Operating from a place of peace is essential, it helps to see things in a clearer way, and it’s something that needs to become a necessity for all parties involved, whether you support vaccination or do not.

Robert F. Kennedy’s son claims that Dr. Tony Fauci and the Gates Foundation stand to make a hefty profit from the manufacture of the COVID-19 vaccine.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., son of Robert and nephew of John F. Kennedy, said that the National Institute for Allergic and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), Dr. Fauci’s agency, will collect 50% of all royalties from a potential coronavirus vaccine.

Speaking to far-right podcast The Gateway Pundit, Kennedy Jr said that Dr. Fauci owns a number of vaccine patents, including one that is being trialed to fight coronavirus by some of America’s biggest vaccine manufacturers.
The Gates Foundation invests in Dr. Fauci’s NIAID as part of its Decade of Vaccines program which aims to introduce a Global Vaccine Action Plan.
Kennedy Jr said that Dr. Fauci owns a patent for a specific type of vaccine that packages a virus in a protein sheet. The virus is then delivered to the human body through the vaccine and Kennedy Jr said that it very quickly reaches the organs necessary to give a person immunity to a certain illness.
He also said that the patent is currently being used by at least one of the major American vaccine manufacturers to make vaccines for coronavirus.
The four major vaccine manufacturers in the US are Pfizer, Merck, GlaxoSmithKline, and Sanofi, and if one of those four companies successfully develops a Coronavirus vaccine, Fauci and the NIAID stand to collect half of the royalties, according to Kennedy Jr.
He said that companies who used that patent have to split the profits 50/50 with the NIAID and he claimed that the Gates Foundation had invested in that particular patent.
He said that there was no limit on how much the NIAID can collect from the coronavirus vaccine and said that there need to be more government regulations to prevent it from doing so.

australiannationalreview--2020-05-09--The Dutch are starting to develop antibodies against coronavirus, says new study

( Natural News ) A new study seems to show that around three percent of the Dutch population have developed antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus responsible for the current pandemic .

(Natural News) A new study seems to show that around three percent of the Dutch population have developed antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus responsible for the current pandemic. Health officials are looking at the study as an indicator of the percentage of people living in the Netherlands, and countries with similar rates of infection, may have already had the disease — and therefore could have immunity to the virus.
Jaap van Dissel, head of the Netherlands’ National Institute for Health (RIVM) said that the results of the study — conducted on Dutch blood donors — could indicate that several thousand Dutch could already be immune to the coronavirus.
“This study shows that about three percent of Dutch people have developed antibodies against the coronavirus,” Van Dissel said.
“You can calculate from that, it’s several hundred thousand people’ in a country of 17 million.”
Antibodies as an indicator of immunity
Health and government officials around the world are looking at antibody testing as a possible means of determining when governments can start relaxing restrictions that they’ve put up to slow the spread of the coronavirus and reopen their countries.
The U.S. has just begun conducting antibody tests — despite questions over the tests’ reliability. President Donald Trump, who wants to reopen the government by May 1, has himself added his voice to those who have urged the expansion of antibody testing.
The revelation that three percent of the Netherlands’ population has developed antibodies against the coronavirus gives some small indication of what percentage of people living in countries with similar infection rates might have developed some immunity to the disease.
As of reporting time, Johns Hopkins University’s running tally of infections reports that 29,383 people in the Netherlands have contracted the coronavirus. This accounts for 0.17 percent of the nation’s population of 17.28 million.
Although the United States has a population that’s more than 10 times that of the Netherlands, the infection rates of the two countries are somewhat similar with about .20 percent of the former’s population having caught the virus.
Of note is the fact that the Netherlands is only testing the sickest of people and those who’re on the front lines of the pandemic. Additionally, its first coronavirus case was reported a month later than when the U.S. confirmed its first patient. Both are factors that may partially account for the slight difference in infection rates.
Testing in America is inconsistent
Some work still needs to be done before similar antibody testing can be done in the United States. While at least 95 antibody tests are now available in the country, only three of these have been authorized by the Food and Drug Administration. Additionally, there is little consistency in how the tests were developed or even what antibodies they are screening for.
So far, there is no repository of data on how many people have been tested for coronavirus antibodies using these disparate tools. Neither are there any figures on how many of those who have been tested have come up positive for the antibodies.
In light of this, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) announced that it would launch its own antibody study last week. The NIH plans to recruit 10,000 American adults who have never tested for the coronavirus to take part in the test.
”This study will give us a clearer picture of the true magnitude of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States by telling us how many people in different communities have been infected without knowing it, because they had a very mild, undocumented illness or did not access testing while they were sick,” said Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and America’s top expert on the outbreak.
It’s too early to know if the American population will have similar rates of immunity as the Dutch. Should that be the case, however, and three percent of Americans have some form of immunity, then that would open up the possibility for some 47 million people — three percent of the workforce — to return to work.
Question of antibody immunity
The big question hanging over all of this is that of just how much immunity antibodies provide. “Only the first glimmers of data are available about immunity to SARS-CoV-2,” writes epidemiologist Marc Lipswitch on the New York Times.
While antibodies do give immunity, scientists still don’t know how long the antibodies hang around after an infection. Based on clinical evidence from other coronaviruses, as well as what data scientists do have on SARS-CoV-2, Lipswitch makes an educated guess, stating that antibodies will “offer some protection over the medium term — at least a year — then its effectiveness might decline.”
The other thing scientists still need to figure out what levels of which antibodies will be enough to neutralize the coronavirus. This is an even more important thing to find out in light of efforts to use antibody testing to determine if people can go back to work. Should the tests flag people with not enough antibodies of the right kind as “immune,” then they put these people at risk of catching the coronavirus.

Washington (AFP) – The wealthy Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation called Wednesday for global cooperation to ready COVID-19 vaccines for seven billion people, while offering $150 million toward developing therapeutics and treatments for the virus.
While it is likely to take as many as 18 months to develop and fully test a safe coronavirus vaccine, global authorities and businesses need to start now on plans to manufacture it, said foundation chief executive Mark Suzman.
“It’s normal to have, at maximum, hundreds of millions of doses manufactured,” he said.

“There are seven billion people on the planet,” he said. “We are going to need to vaccinate nearly every one. There is no manufacturing capacity to do that.”
Suzman announced the foundation, started and controlled by mega-billionaire Microsoft founder Bill Gates and his wife Melinda Gates, is adding $150 million to the $100 million it announced in February to help in international efforts to battle the coronavirus pandemic.
Much of the money is to support the development of COVID-19 diagnostic tests, therapeutic treatments and vaccines, and to make them globally available, he said.
Some is also for helping the poorest countries in South Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa, which lack supplies, equipment and infrastructure to counter the new epidemic.
But the foundation has its focus on preparing for the creation of a vaccine that could effectively halt the spread of coronavirus.
Some 100 potential vaccines are being developed and tested by scientists around the world, Suzman said.
Many might appear hopeful in initial, small tests, he said, but most will fail in larger trials.
“A successful vaccine has to be available for seven billion people. You need to test if there are unexpected side effects, or side effects within cohorts or groups, whether it’s pregnant women or the elderly or the very young,” said Suzman.
“The vast majority of vaccine candidates fail in those larger trials, the so-called phase-three trials.”
– ‘Fastest vaccine ever’ –
But even as those trials take place, he said, there needs to be an international group of experts, countries and companies honing in on those with the most promise and preparing ahead of time to manufacture them.
He said both China and the United States have to be part of the joint effort, as well as the World Health Organization. On Tuesday, US President Donald Trump said he was cutting off US funds for the WHO.
“Clearly for us, the World Health Organization is a very strong, reliable partner,” Suzman said, noting the Gates Foundation is WHO’s second-largest source of funding after the US.
Earlier Wednesday, European Commissioner chief Ursula von der Leyen called a donors conference for May 4 to fund the creation and global deployment of a vaccine, calling it “our collective best shot at beating the virus.”
Suzman said the Gates Foundation is “reasonably optimistic” that one or more successful vaccines can be proven within 12 to 18 months.
“This will be the fastest vaccine ever developed in human history,” he said.
Yet getting the production going, he estimated, will cost several billion dollars.
Each vaccine finally approved will require its own manufacturing process, and if people don’t begin to prepare within months, a lot of time will be lost, he warned.
“There will be no return to ‘normal’ until there is a vaccine,” Suzman said. “But there are no dramatic ways to short-cut it.”
