[5]COMMENT: In connection with our “Oswald Institute of Virology” [6] series, we note for purposes of emphasis an altogether remarkable “coincidence,” which we doubt is a coincidence.
On October 18, 2019, there was a pandemic preparedness [7] exercise called Event 201.
” . . . . The experts ran through a carefully designed, detailed simulation of a new (fictional) viral illness called CAPS or coronavirus acute pulmonary syndrome. This was modeled after previous epidemics like SARS and MERS.
What follows hasn’t happened yet, but the scenario was quite realistic, presuming that the infection began with animals and then was transmitted to people, just as has happened in past pandemics. . . .”
Interestingly, when one clicks on the link [7], one finds a picture of a “wet” market in China. What a remarkable coincidence!
(Among the many facts we have cited is DARPA’s funding [8] of research into bat-borne coronaviruses, very possibly one of an array [9] of covert operations [10] against China [11].)
Another element in our “Oswald Institute of Virology” series is the continuity [6]–via the “Deep State” of the “Lab-Leak Theory” from the Trump administration to the Biden term.
We have also noted that a key participant in Event 201 was Avril Haines [12], former Deputy Director of the CIA and now Biden’s Director of National Intelligence.
She was a key member [13] of Biden’s transition team–an operational bridge between the “extremist” Trump administration and the “respectable” Biden administration.
Now, we learn that Avril Haines was a consultant [13] for Palantir–the Alpha predator of the electronic surveillance landscape and (via Board Chairman Peter Thiel) a key player in Team Trump.
The Haines/Biden/Trump/Palantir axis embodies the “Deep State” we analyzed in our “Oswald Institute of Virology” [14] series.
. . . . The experts ran through a carefully designed, detailed simulation of a new (fictional) viral illness called CAPS or coronavirus acute pulmonary syndrome. This was modeled after previous epidemics like SARS and MERS.
What follows hasn’t happened yet, but the scenario was quite realistic, presuming that the infection began with animals and then was transmitted to people, just as has happened in past pandemics. . . .
. . . . Without knowing more about the epidemiology and transmission of the new CAPS virus, one can’t plan intelligently. For example, are face masks, or hand sanitizer, or water purification the priority? Surveillance and data collection are spotty as some LMIC (low- and middle-income countries) don’t have the capacity to obtain specimens that wealthier countries do.
As in other, real epidemics, responding to the logistical supply issues was complicated by false or misleading news reports, by on-line trolls, and by some people who just seem to want to sow discord and chaos. Fears are inflamed and people or countries can be targeted for blame. . . .
. . . . As the CAPS virus spread in the simulation, supplies were stretched and distribution was disrupted. How can countries plan for continued services and businesses for production? How can they maintain supply chains if there are trade or travel bans?
How can you assure equitable distribution of critical supplies? In this scenario, one country where the antiviral “Extranavir” was produced, planned on holding onto it, rather than exporting the drug.
As the virus spreads, economies become greatly weakened. Discussion turned to how to prevent collapse of governments, famine, and terrorism. Could the World Bank’s Contingency Emergency Response Components be used to allow existing loans to LMIC to be shifted to use for this public health emergency? Would the private sector help with financing? Can we mobilize and come together in such a global crisis? How—and who—will provide humanitarian aid?
As cases and deaths exploded exponentially, there was understandably more public panic, fueled by dis- and misinformation and conspiracy theories. . . .
