Why COVID-19 May Predate October 2019
Latest from Dr. John Campbell:
Covid antibodies found in stored blood samples
Milan Institute for Tumour Diseases, Coronavirus antibodies, September, 2019
Unexpected detection of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in the prepandemic period in Italy (October 2021)

Screening and Multiple Intervention on Lung Epidemics (SMILE
https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03654105
There are no robust data, coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and spread, prepandemic period worldwide
We investigated the presence of SARS-CoV-2 receptor-binding domain (RBD)-specific antibodies
Blood samples of 959 asymptomatic individuals,
enrolled in a prospective lung cancer screening trial,
between September 2019 and March 2020
Plasma samples repository
Results
SARS-CoV-2 RBD-specific antibodies were detected in,
111 of 959 (11.6%) individuals
All the patients were asymptomatic at the time of blood sample collection.
Actual timeframe
First positive test, 3rd September
September 2019 23/162 (14.2%)
October 2019 27/166 (16.3%)
Second week of February 2020, (more than 30%)
By the end of September, Lombardy, Veneto, Piedmont, Emilia Romagna, Liguria, Lazio, Campania, Friuli.
Official timeframe
End of December 2019, coronavirus 2 identified in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China
January 30th 2020 Italy’s first two cases,
(two tourists from China tested positive in Rome)
February 20, 2020 Lombardy, 38-year-old man, no history of travel
Authors
This study shows an unexpected very early circulation of SARS-CoV-2 among asymptomatic individuals
Several months before the first patient was identified
Finding SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in asymptomatic people before the COVID-19 outbreak in Italy may reshape the history of pandemic.
Phenomena 1
Underestimation of prevalence
Swabs and serology, focused on symptomatic cases
Therefore, an underestimation of overall COVID-19 infections
(Selection bias)
Therefore overestimation of mortality rate
May 25 and July 15 (2020)
SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence study, n = 64,660
Prevalence rate was 2.5%
Approximately 1.5 million, (many of whom were asymptomatic)
Estimate almost 5 times higher than official reports
Phenomena 2
Onset of the epidemic, likely to have preceded identification of the first case
November–December 2019
Doctors reporting, severe respiratory symptoms in elderly and frail,
with atypical bilateral bronchitis,
which was attributed to aggressive forms of seasonal influenza
Based on these findings, a prior unnoticed circulation of the virus among the Italian population could be hypothesized.

We should never ever have had a pandemic preparedness team that did not consider the indirect and long-term effects.
We focussed on the direct effects of excess deaths from covid,
but from the beginning it’s likely the indirect effects will lead to more deaths,
and more morbidity and more economic impacts than Covid deaths itself
What I see is still a focus on the direct effects of Covid
Nobody who is in charge of the NHS, or any of the new health secretaries, are making any noises about it

China’s early COVID-19 Vaccine Development versus the U.S. Operation Warp Speed
Full genetic sequence, SARS-CoV-2
First posted, global virus database, January 11, 2020
Chinese professor, violated government restrictions
Then
Vaccine developers inserted viral genome into cells to produce viral proteins
Preclinical animal toxicity
Safety and efficacy studies
Human clinical safety and efficacy trials
Commercial scale vaccine production.
Operation Warp Speed
Pre OWS work started on January 11, 2020
E.g. Adenovirus vector vaccines
The AstraZeneca-Oxford, went from sequence to phase I clinical trials in 103 days
(Ebola platform)
J and J was 185 days
Three adenovirus vector vaccines
Pfizer trail started 7th May 2020
Another Chinese vaccine was patented on 24th February 2020
(Brigadier General Yusen Zhou, Academy of Military Medical Sciences)
Question
Did Chinese researchers have access to the genomic sequence before January 11, 2020?
If so, how far in advance of January 11, 2020?

In the case of Pfizer
Submitted a clinical trial that started in 14th January 2020
Three days later Pfizer already started a test for these vaccines
Moderna

Deaths in England and Wales Up 22.74% in Latest Week (New Figures From ONS) Compared to Pre-Pandemic Levels
New data has just been published by ONS. It shows that things continue to get yet worse in terms of increases in mortality. It’s worse now than it was in prior weeks and deaths have increased nearly 23% for the week (compared to pre-pandemic levels).
The data sets were shared here before (we had made local copies), so here’s just a pair/couple of screenshots.
2022 deaths (totals):
