China's footprint in the smallpox epidemic - media review
The infamous Wuhan Lab in China was experimenting with
Monkeypox last year and even published a research report in
an International Journal earlier this year.
The paper, which was authored by nine Wuhan Institute of
Virology researchers, was published by an international journal
called Virologica Sinica (
https://bit.ly/3NsJSDg) which claims
to present cutting-edge research on viruses all over the world.
In February 2022, Virologica Sinica published a gain of function
research project performed by scientists at the Wuhan Institute
in August 2021. This was at the time the Covid pandemic was
still causing fear and chaos around the world.
A scientific journal published (

researchers at the notorious Wuhan Institute of Virology shared
a recent study on monkeypox that appeared to engage in
gain-of-function research, a controversial method of studying
pathogens that can increase their lethality in humans.
The study was first published in February 2022, just months before
the outbreak (

have now reached the United States. National Pulse report

The paper, which was authored by nine Wuhan Institute of Virology
researchers and published in the labs quarterly scientific journal
Virologica Sinica, also follows the wide-scale use of Polymerase
Chain Reaction (PCR) tests to identify COVID-19-positive
individuals.
Researchers appeared to identify a portion of the monkeypox virus
genome, enabling PCR tests to identify the virus, in the paper:
Efficient Assembly of a Large Fragment of Monkeypox Virus
Genome as a qPCR Template Using Dual-Selection Based
Transformation-Associated Recombination.
The unearthed study follows the Wuhan Institue of Virology
conducting similar research into strains of bat coronaviruses that
could infect humans while admitting its facilities lacked proper
laboratory safety protocols.
Summit report (

monkeypox case found in the U.S. broke, the Biden administration
ordered 13 million doses of a vaccine that protects against both
monkeypox and smallpox.
The World Health Organisation is warning that summer festivals
and mass gatherings could accelerate the spread of monkeypox in
the first indication that health technocrats may once again attempt
to impose restrictions in the name of stopping the spread of
a virus.
As we enter the summer season in the European region, with mass
gatherings, festivals and parties, I am concerned that transmission
could accelerate, as the cases currently being detected are among
those engaging in sexual activity, and the symptoms are unfamiliar
to many, said Dr Hans Kluge, WHO regional director for Europe.
This weekend, Belgium became the first country to begin imposing
quarantine measures for the virus, as Joe Biden also stated that the
developments were concerning.
Sky News (
https://bit.ly/3wM4VKl) reported that Exactly what is
driving the UKs largest outbreak is a mystery, especially as health
experts previously asserted that monkeypox wasnt very transmissible
amongst humans, with some speculating it has mutated.
The virus is also spreading at the same time the WHO is preparing
to vote on an international pandemic treaty and amendments to the
International Health Regulations (2005).
According to critics, the treaty would, give the unelected WHO
greater control of national emergency healthcare decisions and new
powers to push vaccine passports, global surveillance, and global
coordinated actions that address misinformation whenever it
declares a health emergency.
