I named my Substack page The Devil Makes Three, because as most of us know, when it comes to finding out the intricate truth of a matter, one must burrow way down into the details, and it is in the details where the devil resides.
On July 8th I released a three part podcast series called, Origins: Birth of a Pandemic. The series explores the likelihood that SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID19, escaped from the Wuhan Institute of Virology. To be honest, I would love to have had several more months to work on the project, but over the last four or so weeks, the winds of acceptable discourse in the United States shifted all around me, and I had to throw open my sail and try to catch the zeitgeist while anyone still gave a damn.
The series has at its core a long interview with virologist Dr. Jonathan Latham, of the Bioscience Resource Project and IndependentScienceNews.org. It was Dr. Latham and his partner Dr. Alison Wilson who had a Master’s Thesis written by Li Xu translated into English, which allowed the world to see in glorious detail what happened with six men who became ill after work in a guano filled cave in Mojiang, Yunnan, China back in 2012. These six men suffered a mystery pneumonia, and it turns out, the four of them who were tested for SARS type corona viruses did in fact test positive. This was confirmed by a PhD thesis written by Canping Huang, which was also translated into English by Dr.’s Latham and Wilson.
(It should here be noted that both the Master’s and PhD Theses were discovered on a Chinese server by anonymous Twitter user, TheSeeker268).
Origins dives into the story of the miners in Mojiang and what became of them, and then goes on to point out many of the other bizarre happenings and circumstantial what have you’s that make the lab leak hypothesis so darn compelling. For instance, it turns out that the databases kept by Dr. Shi Zhengli and her team at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV), were taken off line before the pandemic began. This fact was uncovered by a man in the UK named Charles Small, who was able to access the SQL databases logs that remained online. Mr. Small brought this information to the independent researchers of the collective D.R.A.S.T.I.C, two members of which joined in with Small to draft a paper outlining the database controversy. One of the team members that helped Small is a data scientist based in New Zealand named Gilles Demaneuf, who is featured in all three episodes of Origins. Mr. Demaneuf explained to me that Dr. Shi Zhengli tried to claim that the WIV pulled their databases during the pandemic, when outsiders were trying to hack into them. When the D.R.A.S.T.I.C. investigators discovered that the databases were actually pulled on September 12th, 2019, that exposed that Dr. Shi’s explanation was not only a lie, but that it was also quite suspicious.
As someone who dedicates a lot of his writing to critiquing the media, Origins of course was also an opportunity to scold the media for constantly calling the lab leak theory “fringe” and a “conspiracy theory” for the first year of the pandemic. Beyond that, the media courted Peter Daszak, the president of the Eco Health Alliance, asking for his opinion on the matter many times throughout the year, while rarely mentioning that Daszak had been a long time collaborator with Dr. Shi Zhengli and the WIV in their SARS/Coronavirus research. Daszak, for his part, organized the Lancet Letter, signed by several members of the Eco Health Alliance, that set the media tone for 2020, with statements like:
We stand together to strongly condemn conspiracy theories suggesting that COVID-19 does not have a natural origin.
Of course, there is a hair to split here. The staff of the WIV had collected thousands and thousands of samples from a variety of animals and a variety of locations. All of them contain “natural” viruses, but these could all still potentially escape from the lab by accident. The media moved forward conflating a lab leak origin of SARS-CoV-2 with notions that the virus was man-made, or released on purpose as a bioweapon, when these are all not describing the same event.
Origins could not possibly cover all the dirty little details that make the lab leak case so darn interesting. While the series does make an effort to explain the intricacies surrounding a viral segment known as BtCoV/4991 that Dr. Shi acquired in the Mojiang mine, and how she renamed it to RaTG13 in what appears to be an attempt to hide the virus’s history of being involved with a pneumonia outbreak, it does not go way down into the weeds regarding the samples from which this virus came, and whether or not it is in fact, an “honest” genome. Consider this statement from a write up assembled by an anonymous researcher:
The raw data for the full RaTG13 sequence are in several files. Some of the RaTG13 filenames are named “7896”, which is the name of another βCoV. It is not standard practice to name parts of a virus after a different virus. Bat CoV Ra7896 is one of eight very similar viruses to SARS-CoV-2 in RdRp collected in Yunnan in 2015[12]. EcoHealth or the WIV must have unpublished data on these viruses in order to classify them as different from one another, as some of their published RdRps are identical.
This may all be Greek to you if you’re not a biologist (I know it takes me several readings and a lot of asked questions to actual scientists to get a general understanding of half of this stuff) but the crux of what is being relayed here is that there are several different beta coronaviruses with near identical partial gene sequences that are in the possession of the WIV, and in order to tell them apart there must be more detailed sequencing that exists that the WIV and/or Eco Health Alliance are keeping close to their chests for unknown reasons. Further, it seems as though the virus RaTG13 - the closest known relative of SARS-CoV-2, seemingly has the name of an entirely different virus - Ra7896, as the file name for portions of its sequence. As RaTG13 is not being shared with scientists around the world for review, it’s hard to know if the WIV is being 100% honest about it’s sequence.
Peter Daszak has already lied about RaTG13, saying no work with it was done after 2013, which turned out not to be the case. In fact, the file names on the sequences of the virus have reference years 2017 and 2018, so Daszak and Dr. Shi had to do an about face and say, actually, yeah, we did do work with the closest known relative of SARS-CoV-2 much more recently. Oops! Sorry!
There has still not been an adequate investigation into the possibility that SARS-CoV-2 leaked from the WIV. All we have had is a WHO investigation in February of 2021 that had Peter Daszak as one of the few non-Chinese team members. The terms of reference for this investigation don’t consider a lab leak at all, and the team had to be satisfied with having zero access to raw data. When the WHO finished their “investigation” they unsurprisingly found that a lab leak was “extremely unlikely,”
It is no easy feat to try and cover an issue of this magnitude and complexity in only three short podcast episodes, but ultimately I figured it was best to get out what I could while the world was paying any attention at all. Hopefully though, those who have not yet taken a big bite of the lab leak sandwich can listen to Origins and get a handle on not only some of the biggest contradictions and seeming deceptions regarding work being done at the WIV, but can also begin to understand what’s at stake when scientists around the world go scratching about in the most remote and dark places, looking for viruses to bring back into city centers to play with in their labs.
This is The Church of COVID, our members are The Covidians, our doctrine is The Science™. Our religion is still new and evolving, so i'll update this periodically as new revelations come down from on high. This is here so that everyone can stay on the same page.
Structure of the divine pantheon
Dr. Fauci (578 masks be upon him) is our prophet, his body is host to the spirit of public health they are one in the same, he is the most holy being in existence what he says goes.
One tiny step below him is a host of Arch Angels - divine figures of such influence that their pronouncements are used by the Arch Cardinals to create laws and edicts which we must all follow - they must also be praised.
Below the Arch Angels is the Arch Cardinals – divinely inspired humans that lead over some geographical area be it a city, state, province, or entire country, that has used the wisdom of Fauci or the Arch Angels (10K masks be upon them) to design holy policy that protects us all - we hold them in reverence but do not have to praise them when we speak their names.
Why do you say ‘mask(s) be upon him/her/them’ when speaking the names of Fauci (375K MBUH) or one of his Arch Angels?
The Church of COVID demands that divine figures be blessed when speaking their names, the mask is holy, the more masks you wish upon someone the stronger your blessing.
Why are some pictures of The Prophet/Arch Angels/Arch Cardinals unmasked not marked NSFW?
People of this level of esteem are always masked, if you can’t see that you simply do not have enough faith. Begin self-flagellating immediately.
What is The Church’s position on vaccination?
Vaccines are The Great Prophet Fauci’s (736 Vigintillion MBUH) holy sacrament. Everyone should be vaccinated. Get every COVID vaccine. Multiple times. In fact, just get an IV drip of vaccines and take them continuously.
Aren’t you worried about side effects?
There are no vaccine side effects. Every one of what the anti-vaxxers call “side effects” we call spiritual gifts. Spiritual gifts are how you know that Fauci (9378 Billion MBUH) saw that you took the vaccine and has decided to bless you for doing so.
What is COVID in all this?
COVID is a fallen Arch Angel that possesses Anders Tegnell and is the evil that we fight against and structure our lives around, the coronavirus is the way that COVID takes control of your body, you must avoid this at all costs.
COVID has many Satans that do its bidding and spread evil, lies, and misinformation. Notably the Orange Satan, and Ron DeSatan. We will find others over time.
What happens when I die?
If you are found virtuous enough (no non-Covidians are) you will don your mask of eternal virtue and join Dr. Fauci (5.28 x 10^8 MBUH) in an everlasting Zoom call!
If you are not virtuous enough you will be placed on the ventilator of the damned and cursed to sail a hospital ship on and endless lake of fire and brimstone for eternity.
What is Faucidan?
Faucidan is like the Muslim month of Ramadan but better, it is our great celebration, a holiday of varying length and start date, where we have holy lockdowns, Zoom™ calls, and wear masks even at home to show everyone how virtuous we are.
What must I do to obtain virtue?
Members must follow all revelations and dictates from our prophet The Holy Dr. Anthony Fauci (2.6 Billion MBUH) and his Arch Angels.
The commandments are as follows:
Thou shalt not take the name of Fauci (11.41 Billion MBUH) or any other divine figures in vain. They must be praised either before or after you speak their names.
Thou shalt not be seen without your mask. Your mouth, henceforth known as face anus, and nose, henceforth known as face penis are vile and obscene, cover them up.
Thou shalt not touch anything without immediately using hand sanitizer before and after contact.
Thou shalt not question The Science™, you will know it is The Science™ because it will agree with The Holy Dr. Fauci (1.3 Trillion MBUH).
Thou shalt not come within 6' of another person without a barrier between you.
Thou shalt not attend a gathering of more than 10 people, unless it is a BLM rally, then the acceptable number is unlimited.
Thou shalt not study statistics for it is foolishness.
Thou shalt not study history for it is full of the unmasked.
You shall shame others who violate any of these commandments.
You shall show the people of the world your virtuousness through social media that they may join you. Talk about the church in other subs, and post about outrageous and holy things alike here.
Who are the Arch Angels?
We must figure that out. If you think you know who they are post here, if enough people demand it we can put it to a vote.
Here is the current list of confirmed Arch-Angels: Rochelle Walensky, Director of the CDC (5 MBUH), Xi Jinping, President of China (973 MBUH), Daniel Andrews, Premier of Victoria, Australia (297K MBUH), Jacinda Ardern, Prime Minister of New Zealand (736 Million MBUH)
What is the ritual to join The Church?
First you must connect to one or more current members via Zoom™ call as all inductions require witnesses.
You will don at least 2 masks and apologize for your nakedness.
You will face toward the CDC, kneel, and pray to Fauci (500 Trillion MBUH) that he will forgive you of your sin and denial of The Science™.
You will baptize yourself in hand sanitizer to signify your cleansing.
And that’s it, you will be a Covidian and forever saved from the ventilator of the damned!
