Gyms and restaurants here on Thursday, but again must maintain social distancing etc.... Pretty sure they would have opened up bars if it hadn't been for South Korea having just had a bad trip.

US-based pathologist Chris Martenson said a suspicious sequence of nucleotides in the RNA coding of the Sars-Cov-2 coronavirus appear to have been inserted as they do not occur in any of the close or even distantly related viruses.

Chris Martenson is no longer a pathologist. He's now ZeroHedge fodder and should be taken as such.

(his original 'crash course' is still an amazingly simple was to understand money, fiat currency, and how fractional reserve / debt based economies work)

On the China lab theory, I'm gonna trust that Dr. Fauci knows more than the rest of us & the Trump admin. His answer is pretty much what McP said a couple pages ago.

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/anthony-fa ... dismissal/
Fauci, who is on the White House Coronavirus Task Force, told the wildlife magazine that COVID-19 likely originated in an animal and then transmitted to humans. He made similar comments last month during a White House briefing.

"If you look at the evolution of the virus in bats and what's out there now, [the scientific evidence] is very, very strongly leaning toward this could not have been artificially or deliberately manipulated … Everything about the stepwise evolution over time strongly indicates that [this virus] evolved in nature and then jumped species," said Fauci, the director of the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.

When asked if there could have been a scenario where scientists found the virus outside the lab, brought it back and then it escaped, Fauci shut the line of questioning down.

"But that means it was in the wild to begin with. That's why I don't get what they're talking about [and] why I don't spend a lot of time going in on this circular argument," he said.

Unless the quote is incomplete, he isn't saying it didn't escape from a lab, he saying it cant be of both natural and artificial origin at the same time.

He's also saying that it's irrelevant right now. It's one fuck up by one lab in a situation where there have been continual fuck ups by pretty much everyone.

Fauci's job isn't part of a commission to assign blame and recommend future fixes. His job is to solve the problem at hand and save lives in the present tense.

The non-bolded Fauci quote is saying that, though.

I think I had Covid Toe over the winter. At the time I thought my basketball shoes were getting old but now I'm not so sure. My toes looked just like the pictures. It would be great if this went through the house already.

It's not though. It's saying it wasnt artificially made or modified.

I can't imagine these guys as anything other than tremendous assholes. Not to mention that fact that they ate in the dining room despite that putting the restaurant at risk of violating the Stay at Home order.

It's pretty hard to be this bad at this stuff. Just follow the fucking recommendations of your own god damned government.

Why the fuck would you take a fucking rocket launcher or an M-50 inside a goddamn Subway restaurant? To make sure your sandwich is made fresh?
