J-mac is of the opinion that there is no such thing as a virus. He wishes to discuss this further but cannot initiate threads.
So here you go, J-Mac: the floor is yours. Let me know if you’d like to expand this OP, or you can expound your thesis in comments.
This clearly isn’t going anywhere. J-Mac, are you OK? You confided that you lost your job, you got sucked into a particularly nasty corner of the internet and your comments here have grown hostile. I actually worry for you.
With the greatest empathy and love in my heart, to explain this and other threads he has created over the years (and his posts and behavior generally) I genuinely think J-mac is schizo. But still, despite our disagreements and his personal challenges, I wish him nothing but the best in life.
Not to unduly worry J-mac, but my newspaper reported that highly pathogenic H5N1 influenza has reached unprecedented levels in wild birds in Europe, with for example one in four wild ducks being infected here in the Netherlands. Given the zoonotic threat, this is reason for concern.
The next pandemic will be the flu, folks.
H5N1 commentary is bringing out the Covid deniers in force. A local poultry business had to cull; under a news item about it were no end of ‘fraudulent PCR’ jockeys and straight-up virus deniers. It is pathological, but I’m not sure it’s necessarily a mental health issue. This mania just seems to grip some people.
That said, I once met a guy in a Scottish bothy that was a full-on conspiracist. He could talk about nothing else, however I tried to change the subject. In the course of the evening he let on that he was schizophrenic. But “why should I take my meds if what I am saying is true?”. He was paranoid – felt that dog walkers engaged in conversation were talking about him, that other people with rucksacks were really agents keeping an eye on him. His oddest one was cuckoos. They are very active in Scottish woodland in the spring; he thought there was something suspicious about them – that perhaps it was people trying to mess with him. Each time he mentioned them, he would do an impression. Something surreal about a guy with MH issues actually shouting “cuckoo! cuckoo!”…
This is what’s frustrating about conspiracism. People like my new friend get sucked in, predisposed to believe that All Is Not As It Seems. Some go so far as to fantasise execution for healthcare workers and scientists.
And the propagators count the cash.
I’m sorry keiths I had no time to read your surly interesting comments… ‘
As you know, I got fired from more than one job in 2022 because not only I refused to take something (mRNA vaccines are not even gene therapies as some claim.)
We have tested the mRNA “voxxins” in few ways and in the lab and on half humans and the transfection results are less than inconclusive. I actually went out of my way and asked all mRNA vaxxed staff on the team to prove everyone wrong-is the “spike protein” folded or not?
Can you guess the result. keiths?
keiths, there are a lot of delusional people here… as you likely know… make sure when convict-19 is exposed, which it will, like it or not. you are on the right side of it…
Capish?
J-Mac,
You seem to think it’s all keiths talking…
Look, you wanted the damn thread creating! Now you ain’t got time for it? Yeesh.
This invention of baby-words is one of the weirder characteristics of the no-virus cult. It’s as if saying them properly might make them appear, Candyman style.
That is deeply ironic, since the thing that may best protect poultry farmers from having to cul their flock is vaccination against avian influenza.
Whn we hd a serious foot-and-mouth epidemic in the early 2000’s, I was disappointed that vaccination was not considered. Its effectiveness is modest, and wanes rapidly, but it seems preferable to the widespread and devastating cull we endured – empty fields for 100km+ from here well into Scotland.
Look mate. The voxxin-folds were uno-propriotorized until the trueth beneath was fully discovered. I’m not going to state all the obvious just this once in this thread, we all know what theym would advacne towards.
This is why I am committed until now to prevent any more stops from ending before we even begin. Twice now I have made this promise to stranger and not once have I done it even twice. Not even once.
In the future I need you to be clear about the convictions if you want a less than serious response, then have covefe ready in the micro.
But a new year is comeing so I’ll be ready. Bes wishes.
Rumraket,
I’d like to know where he got the half humans from. Not on any lab supplies list.
You have to know the right half of people. Double that if you include the left half too.
The evolutionary theory predicts viruses…or the other way around?
Does it matter?
We have bought covid-19 deadly vihrus samples from 3 labs certified. our lab staff refrained from wearing a Fauici criminall shmata on their face…
BTW: nobody here will ever acknowledge covid-19 was a fake pandemic.
As I have said, but you can’t be arsed to read anything said: evolutionary theory has very little to do with virology. Although viruses do evolve.
Sure you have, Champ. Sure you have.
Of course not. Why would they?
Turns out that the panicdemic was driven by the very reliable PCR test, which was 85-90% FALSE POSITIVE
https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/epidemiology/articles/10.3389/fepid.2025.1592629/full
Which means what?
We didn’t have a pandemic…
J-Mac,
Please explain, in your own words, why you think that article shows that “86%” False Positive rate.
Your answer will need to explain how the reported results could not have been caused by an inaccurate IgG test. You will need to address both sensitivity and specificity.
I can wait.
DNA_Jock,
Antivax is absolutely wetting itself over this paper. Confirmation bias off the scale.
Presumably, J-mac agrees that (taking the paper at face value, for argument) 14% of PCR did indeed detect live viral material in people infected, who also mounted an IgG response to said infection?
What does this paper even mean, to someone who thinks Covid fictitious and germ theory (hence, the immune system) wrong? It depends entirely on these things being real.
We’ll never know, of course, since J-mac appears incapable of debate. Another drive-by in a few weeks, when he latches onto the next AV talking point.
This paper does not take PCR positive individuals and observe their IgG production. It simply uses 2 datasets: PCR tests and IgG positivity, and attempts to merge them to get a fraction of assumed ‘true positivity’ – defined as antibody (IgG) response. It regards the fraction PCR+ IgG- as not infected… at all. They had viral nucleic acid in the mucosae, but it never took hold, and the virus must have replicated in someone else. How can such a situation arise? How can each individual actually replicating virus donate a sufficient sample to 7 other individuals that will show up on PCR, without those individuals replicating the virus? Even on a basic smell test, it’s fishy.
Note the assumptions:
1) People are exactly as likely to be PCR tested as IgG tested.
2) People are PCR tested and IgG tested at exactly the same frequency (it’s a count of tests, not of individuals; many get PCR tested multiple times, while never getting an Ab test).
3) IgG antibodies are produced above detection levels in every true infection.
4) IgG antibodies never wane
5) IgG and PCR both have 100% specificity and sensitivity.
All completely unreasonable. It’s junk science.
So, now it is confirmed that the PCR test for convid was not only up 90% wrong, we have a confirmation why the flu disappeared after the most reliable test in the world was introduced.
I have said this before here but I could not understand why several of my patients diagnosed with flu or bacterial pneumonia became convid positive on Monday. I was told that our testing machines were “updated” over the weekend with very sensitive tool to make panicdemics
