For those who have trouble comprehending Genbank and why it's one of the greatest accomplishments of our time.

Here's 1 limited study done by the US Defense Deptartment proving that flu vaccines increase certain Viral infections while reducing others. (They had sufficient isolation and sequencing capabilities to differentiate between different viruses and which ones were increased in service members given the flu vax and which ones were decreased in people who got the flu vax)

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7126676/

For those who can process new information, this means viruses do exist and there's many different species, as proven by the past 50+ years of research that "No Viruses" cultists conveniently and consistently ignore.

There's one comment I'd like to share because the poster puts some thought into her writing, but unfortunately makes a number of false statements, upon which she builds an argument that she repeats pathologically not seeing that it is entirely built on false foundations. She says about Genbank: (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/labs/virus/vssi/#/virus?SeqType_s=Nucleotide&VirusLineage_ss=SARS-CoV-2,%20taxid:2697049)

"No, he cited a list of entries about made-up in silico "genomes". The first entry listed at that link relates to the ridiculous Fan Wu study, the next 10 entries don't even have publications, so there are no Methods sections to even read. Daniel has taken it as an article of faith that the entries are legit."

The first lie is her accusation that the Genbank is a list of "made-up" genomes. If you know how to navigate tables on webpages and spreadsheets, you can click on the top bar and arrange all 8.26 million Sars Cov entries by the date, who sequenced it, or the name of the organization that sequenced it.

Lets click on "submitters" so the 8 million list is arranged alphabetically Z to A? (Why? because I think authors with names at the beginning of the alphabet get disproportionate credit in academia.)

If you click on the blue link beside "van der Poel,W.H.M.," and then click on the popup blue link MT457390 on the sidebar, then you go to this page.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/MT457390

This page is a "publication".

So the commenter's accusation there's no publication is also false.

The third false hood is that these genomes were "made up". (Read Dr. van der Poel's entry.)

Either this repeat poster doesn't know how to click on blue links to get to the "publication", click on menu bars, and comprehend the text of https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/MT457390 .

Or

She's lying, not just to us, but herself as well.

An intelligent person asks why?
