    August 19, 2021 Chairman Lipps, Vice Chair Holmes, Ranking Member Russo, and Members of the House Health Committee, thank you for the opportunity to provide proponent testimony on House Bill 248. My family and I are asking that Ohio HB248 be passed in order to protect the individual freedoms we currently have as American citizens. I work in a corporate setting and my husband owns a small business. We have two young daughters who are relying on us to provide for them and protect their rights. I support this bill in hopes that they can grow up with the same liberties we have had. Segregation and discrimination over individual health choices should be taken seriously and passing this bill is key to avoiding those types of issues in the future. I am not a scientist, but I am a mom, a wife, and a daughter who takes the health of my family very seriously. I have done extensive amounts of research on the SARS-COV2 virus and subsequent vaccines. There are also many health experts that provide me with helpful information. I am sure you are receiving many testimonies about the large numbers of vaccine injuries and even deaths that have occurred during this vaccine campaign. Personally, I know two women who have had severe menstrual issues (requiring surgery) that they can connect back to occurring right after the vaccine. My friends’ cousin passed away at only 23 years old from an enlarged heart after receiving the vaccine. The stories go on and on. The point is that no legislation should force my family and I to inject ourselves with substances that have side effects such as this.

We especially focus on suc- cessful ability to evolutionarily adapt in the face of environmental change. Viruses are often challenged by dynamic environments, such as host immune function and evolved resistance as well as abiotic fluctuations in temperature, moisture, and other stressors that reduce virion stability. Despite these chal- lenges, our experimental evolution studies show that viruses can often readily adapt, and novel virus emergence in humans and other hosts is increasingly problematic. We additionally consider whether viruses are advantaged in evolvability—the capacity to evolve—and in avoidance of extinction. On the basis of these different ways of gauging biological success, we conclude that viruses are the most successful inhabitants of the biosphere.

Received: 17 December 2019; Accepted: 9 January 2020; Published: 14 January 2020 Abstract: White spot syndrome virus (WSSV), the lone virus of the genus Whispovirus under the family Nimaviridae, is one of the most devastating viruses affecting the shrimp farming industry. Knowledge about this virus, in particular, its evolution history, has been limited, partly due to its large genome and the lack of other closely related free-living viruses for comparative studies. In this study, we reconstructed a full-length endogenous nimavirus consensus genome, Nimav-1_LVa (279,905 bp), in the genome sequence of Penaeus (Litopenaeus) vannamei breed Kehai No. 1 (ASM378908v1). This endogenous virus seemed to insert exclusively into the telomeric pentanucleotide microsatellite (TAACC/GGTTA)n. It encoded 117 putative genes, with some containing introns, such as g012 (inhibitor of apoptosis, IAP), g046 (crustacean hyperglycemic hormone, CHH), g155 (innexin), g158 (Bax inhibitor 1 like).

Montagnier says that AIDS W. MC W. denialist groups misrepresent his thinking. The autism trial enters a new area of contro- versy. The Infectious Disease Society of America have reviewed long-duration antibiotic treat- ments in Lyme disease, and concluded in April that the “inherent risks of long-term antibiotic therapy were not justified by clinical benefit”. Montagnier acknowledges that safety concerns exist, but argues that opposition to long anti- biotic treatments can also be “dogma”. The trials will need to be cleared with the relevant ethics and regulatory bodies, he notes, and will include careful precautions and surveillance. “Expert physicians have learned to avoid side effects and to choose the right regimen,” he says. Another element of the trial is also attract- ing scepticism.

Received: 17 November 2019; Accepted: 31 December 2019; Published: 3 January 2020 Abstract: We report on a novel RNA virus infecting the wasp Lysiphlebus fabarum, a parasitoid of aphids. This virus, tentatively named “Lysiphlebus fabarum virus” (LysV), was discovered in transcriptome sequences of wasps from an experimental evolution study in which the parasitoids were allowed to adapt to aphid hosts (Aphis fabae) with or without resistance-conferring endosymbionts. Based on phylogenetic analyses of the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), LysV belongs to the Iflaviridae family in the order of the Picornavirales, with the closest known relatives all being parasitoid wasp-infecting viruses. We developed an endpoint PCR and a more sensitive qPCR assay to screen for LysV in field samples and laboratory lines. These screens verified the occurrence of LysV in wild parasitoids and identified the likely wild-source population for lab infections in Western Switzerland. Three viral haplotypes could be distinguished in wild populations, of which two were found in the laboratory.

  • Response to the COVID-19 Vaccine Effects and the “Protein Shedding” a Growing Number of People Are Asking How Will NANO SOMA
    Response to the COVID-19 vaccine effects and the “protein shedding” A growing number of people are asking how will NANO SOMA help to remove the effects of the injection(s) when people have received them and the effects from the so-called shedding of what is reportedly a spike protein to the uninjected by those who have been injected. As we consider this issue, it is worth recalling the evidence that there are Coronavirus patents held by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation in conjunction with DARPA and the WHO from 2018, pre-dating the COVID-19 “Plandemic” and Event 201, the October 2019 planning event that modelled the events that were to be played out in 2020 and beyond. Even more important and profound is this interview by Dr Reiner Fuellmich of Dr David Martin, who explains that there is a COVID patent trail leading back to 2002!!!, and much, much more. A backup of the interview is at this link. In my opinion, this information is profoundly important as we navigate this challenging time. The famous French virologist Luc Montagnier, the 2008 winner of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has warned that many will die from the vaccines. Further, Yolande Norris-Clark, a Canadian specialist in women’s health and a doula recently warned of the effects of the shedding upon the hormonal states of uninjected women who come into contact with those who have been injected. Yolande’s video was quickly removed from YouTube and I understand that she has since fled with her family from Canada to Mexico because of the attacks upon her family, I’m speculating because of her uncompromising, informed and articulate stand and message.
