And I don’t know what else they aimed for.
With reference to the article:
https://www.zerohedge.com/health/chines ... ating-race
I first note that the author is said to be “Tyler Durden”. Tyler Durden is the name of a character played by Brad Pitt in the film Fight Club and this is apparently an alias used by one or more writers at the Zero Hedge website. Of course, an article stands and falls by its arguments, but I am always a little suspicious when the author hides behind an alias especially when, as here, they are discussing matters that call for technical knowledge and I would like to know how qualified they are to do so. I would note that a great many eminent and qualified medical professionals have come out and questioned whether the virus is as dangerous as the official narrative claims and whether such extreme measures are warranted – the thousands of medical professionals who have added their signatures to the open letter from Belgian healthcare professionals and the Great Barrington Declaration being recent examples in question. Not a few, e.g. Dr Andrew Kaufman or Dr Iqbal Adil have been sacked or had their licences suspended for speaking out, so certain powerful forces certainly want to frighten the medical profession into silence. I find the arguments of qualified professionals who come out in public with their claims to be more persuasive, frankly.
Anyway, let’s look at the merits of the argument. As I understand it, the author cites an academic study which shows that the greater presence of a certain enzyme in the lungs of people from this region makes north east Asians more susceptible to the disease. Note in the first place it says they are more susceptible; it does not say that people of other “races” are immune and no evidence at all is offered that the virus was deliberately engineered to make it this way. In other words, if this is the only evidence available to prove that the US deep state engineered a virus that would only attack Asians and not Caucasians, it is pretty weak evidence. So, while as Professor Adam is reported as saying, “For certain infections there may be genetic differences in susceptibility” this is a far cry from claiming that it gives any group blanket immunity and if the virus has been engineered to act in this way, the onus still remains on the person making this claim to prove it, since naturally forming viruses can display this property, too.
The article dates back to March and a lot has happened since then. One of its arguments for the virus’s so-called racial bias is that the virus was not ravaging Africa, meaning that either intentionally or by design it somehow bypasses dark-skinned people as it rampages. Well, as far as I know Africa still seems to have been spared the worst effects of this “second black death” from which 99% of those affected recover, but it is widely reported that Afro-Americans have been disproportionately affected. Hence, the explanation may not be racial at all, but climatic and social, in that the virus may not spread well in very hot places and Afro-Americans are as a whole a highly disadvantaged section of the US population which thus has a poorer diet and worse housing, factors that may contribute to suffering harsher effects on contracting a disease. Yes, our anonymous author does cite Professor Rodney Adam, who says, ‘There is no current evidence to indicate that climate affects transmission,” but I would suggest that subsequent evidence has indicated that heat does affect its transmission.
So, overall, I would say that the cited article does provide some evidence from a non-peer reviewed article that Asians have higher susceptibility but a great deal more supporting evidence is needed to back up the argument that the US deep state consciously developed a virus that would target Asians alone, especially that showing that it was deliberately manufactured in this way, given that there may be, as Professor Adam has stated, genetic differences in susceptibility to naturally occurring viruses.
