Sometimes I forget what the name of this blog is. After all, the central theme is not about a 'virus': it is more about viral beliefs and system dynamics, with the mass media as the main source of contamination, such as the Legionella-spreading whirlpools at Flora Holland at the time (and yes - bacteria also have the 'viral' contamination property).
Willem plaatste een "Off topic" reactie op de vorige post en ik realiseerde mij daardoor dat ik het Hanta-virus geen aandacht heb gegeven op "virusvaria". Ik kan hier wel kopiëren wat Jan Bonte erover schreef op X en wat Pierre Capel erover zei bij Lighthouse TV maar dat voegt niet zoveel toe. Maar goed: nu ik toch bezig ben is het een kleine moeite.
Nevertheless, the media remains quite busy with it. Just like the Radboud university medical center: blood is apparently never considered 'possibly contaminated' in standard procedures. Covid had to be fought with splash masks and Hanta blood actually had to be treated as an aerogenous virus, it seems.
En de urine was niet afgevoerd volgens "de meest actuele internationale voorschriften". Dat klinkt alsof de EU weer zit te stangen.
Guest author Willem Lijfering wrote about the well-known Radboud university medical center:
Off topic.
12 (twelve!!) employees in isolation (quarantine) for 6 weeks because they did not follow the procedure, for a (usually) self-limiting disease.
Regardless of whether or not you believe in viruses: 12 employees treating 1 patient, that is a fact: the Radboud hospital says it itself and they are never wrong. And that's at least 12! Over a period of 2 days. And for what: to take some blood and remove some urine (from 1 patient). For this they need 12 people in Radboud over a period of 2 days! 12 people in contact with something (or someone, depending on how you look at it), if I can believe the news (and which I never do, but that's besides the point), which is very dangerous and very contagious. An ounce less perhaps on hands at the bedside, what does infection prevention say about that?
By the way: Imagine if there were 20 patients with that virus in that hospital at the same time, then that hospital would be shut down. Healthcare can never handle that! Unless we start acting normal again and say that almost all the people on that boat are still alive (3 out of 150 are dead and misery, even the most uncorrected misery, always comes in threes).
Ai (my great friend) says about the ifr of hantavirus:
'The hantavirus has an Infection Fatality Rate (IFR), which can range from less than 1% to as high as 30-50%'
In other words: anything is possible that is not a prediction.
The chance of cloud cover at 12 noon in exactly 1 year is between 0 and 100%. And after rain, I dare say with certainty, comes sunshine. Can I become a weatherman now?
The chance that Cambuur will become Premier League champion next year is not excluded. Can I now join studio sport as an expert?
But if I say: the chance of dying from Hanta virus is between 0 and 50%, then I am a scientist!
So much for Willem. But a scientist must also have very different capabilities to become a successful expert. The video below makes that clear. Must see, I thought, so it had Dutch subtitles.
Thanks for bringing this topic on topic!
Read that the symptoms of Hanta virus also include fear. That is: doctors mistakenly thought that a woman was afraid instead of suffering from hanta disease.
https://www.nu.nl/buitenland/6395391/live-hantavirus-artsen-vertelden-franse-vrouw-dat-symptomen-angst-waren.html
We can be grateful to science for the PCR test that makes short work of the clinical view of doctors!
This patient is also doing well, despite her positive PCR. But, yes, as they say in Radboud: Better safe than sorry! (Appropriate for obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD or OCD)
ai: OCD is a mental disorder characterized by recurring obsessive thoughts (obsessions) and compulsions. These thoughts and actions take up a lot of time, cause anxiety and interfere with daily life.
What they suffer from in Radboud (and in the media)…
So far, I am amazed at how the WHO and virologists are jointly trying to make themselves important again...
The WHO needs fear of pandemics. That's the problem with these kinds of institutions. Perhaps it is not a bad idea at all to have an international body that arranges certain agreements. Useful, for example, if you use the same definitions for diseases and causes of death. Then you can spot trends. But once these kinds of clubs get too big they need a budget, and there has never been an organization like this that has closed itself down or voluntarily shrunk. Presumably the Hanta story was spread around the world by the WHO, the news agencies copied it and local MSM also put it in their newspapers. You can forget about a critical look (as Jan Bonte does).
This goes the same way as the failed monkeypox panic.
My stepfather had a nice saying: 'are you completely fed up with rats?'? Just had to think of that.
Yet it is logical that those wide IFR margins are used.
There are different hantaviruses, all with their own IFR and it also varies per age group.
Still miss MK in Buitenhof from last Sunday 😉
Freely shown:
She had to respond 'reluctantly' because of fuss in alternative media. Downplayed some things: it wasn't covid.
Implicit message: Covid was really bad and she ended up riding her pandemic preparedness showpiece again: the next pandemic is coming, we don't know when, maybe next month, in a year or in 20 years.
There.
Just keep the fear in it. Above all, leave no opportunity unturned to maintain this.
Now also a cruise ship in quarantine because a 90 year old died of the norovirus... see my previous (one predictive) responses.
this makes my heart bleed! Fauci…..an amateur! criminal without parallel, should have been behind bars for a long time!
It's getting stranger and stranger, the hanta story. Not that I believe everything that commenters write about everything, but the copy paste below seems true and is actually correct (checked with AI) with regard to who baptized the Hondius and its ties with pharmaceuticals. Foreign…
There’s a great article here on the whole fiasco:
The Hanta Hype, or: A Tale of Bird-Watchers in Toxic Landfills and How I Learned to Smell a Pharma Rat
https://healthfreedomdefense.org/the-hanta-hype/
It is becoming increasingly evident that the Dutch couple was exposed to highly toxic fumes (copper/mercury poisoning) from the landfill in Ushuaia, Argentina. Scrap collectors burn the plastic insulation off copper cables at this landfill to scavenge the valuable metal beneath.
The Dutch bird watching couple got off the cruise ship to visit a landfill in Ushuaia that is known to attract the White-bellied Seedsnipe and the rare Darwin’s Straited Caracara.
Toxic threats from this site are long known among residents with burning rubbish, particularly cables for copper extraction, producing smoke that “burns the throat.”
The smoke from burning copper cables is particularly dangerous because it often contains hydrogen chloride from PVC insulation, which creates an acid in the lungs that directly causes chemical burns and fluid buildup and nitrogen oxides which are known to cause delayed pulmonary edema that can “drown” a person several hours or even days after they leave the smoke.
Burning and other scavenging activities at the Ushuaia landfill stir up dust and smoke. Local community groups like “Let’s Clean Ushuaia” have highlighted hazardous waste disposal and environmental neglect in the region.
Burning electronic waste is a common practice at this scarcely regulated landfill which releases dangerous toxins, including mercury vapor, lead, and cadmium. Inhaling these vapors can cause “metal-fume fever,” which has similar symptoms to what they are calling “hantavirus.”
A side note: The cruise ship MV Hondius is named after famous Dutch cartographer Jodocus Hondius. The ship was christened for its maiden voyage on June 2, 2019, in Vlissingen, Netherlands by Elizabeth Hondius- no relation to Jodocus.
This ceremony makes her the ship’s “godmother.” Who is Elizabth Hondius? She is legal counsel fo MSD (Merck Sharp & Dohme) and was involved with Gardasil, Merck’s vaccine for preventing cancers caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). Her association with the company involves management and legal oversight, particularly in the Netherlands and Switzerland.
Thanks for the link. The writer has done what – especially Dutch – journalists should have done (instead of all singing the same song).
If there's one thing we need when dealing with these kinds of things, it's logic (and a healthy dose of suspicion).
Een prachtig transparant verhaal.

Onder (de 140 buitenlandse ) door de USA gefinancierde biolaboratora bevond zich ook de Erasmus Universiteit (door Ecohealth Alliance met directeur Daszak) .Navraag bij het LUMC (prof Alexander G. moet duidelijkheid verschaffen of dit instituut ook meedeed met de USA financiering en de grootschalige cover up wat betreft gevaarlijke bio activiteiten in het laboratorium.
Dit verhaal sluit bij dit onderwerp beter aan,( Tusi Gabbard is ontslagen )
Misschien wel doordat de CIA ,waar zij de baas van is , het niet leuk vond dat James Erdman 3 een getuigenis over het onderzoek naar de oorsprong van covid 19 heeft gedaan.
DNI Tulsi Gabbard probes US funding to more than 120 biolabs abroad

WASHINGTON — Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard is investigating more than 120 biological laboratories abroad that were funded by US taxpayer dollars for decades, as part of an effort to end potentially risky experiments with viruses pursuant to President Trump’s executive order on so-called “gain-of-function” research.
Gabbard told The Post Monday in a statement that her team is going “to identify where these labs are, what pathogens they contain and what ‘research’ is being conducted to end dangerous gain-of-function research that threatens the health and wellbeing of the American people and the world.”
“The COVID-19 pandemic revealed the catastrophic global impact research on dangerous pathogens in biolabs can have,” the spy chief also said.

“Yet despite these obvious dangers, politicians, so-called health professionals, like Dr. Fauci, and entities within the Biden administration’s national security team lied to the American people about the existence of these US-funded and supported biolabs and threatened those who attempted to expose the truth.”
Under new guidance from Gabbard, the US Intelligence Community will review research at all US-funded biolabs, which would include facilities engaged in gain-of-function experiments that could increase the transmissibility of viruses, as well as work for defensive purposes against dangerous pathogens.
Office of the Director of National Intelligence officials noted that the foreign labs extend into more than 30 countries, and several had received funding in the past through a Department of Defense program that sought to dispose of weapons of mass destruction after the end of the Cold War.
More than 40 of the biolabs under review are located in Ukraine — and could “be at risk of compromise” due to Russia’s war, ODNI officials noted.
The research, which is part of the Defense Department’s Cooperative Threat Reduction (CTR) Program, is aimed at studying pathogens to prevent future outbreaks and enhancing biosecurity for the US.

Critics have argued that lax oversight of the research funding, which often flows through US agencies to grantees and subawardees, prevents Americans from knowing whether potentially dangerous experiments are being conducted.
Clinical trials currently being conducted at the biolabs are now “raising significant, ethical, financial and security concerns,” ODNI officials said.
The Biden administration denied the existence of US-owned or US-operated “chemical or biological laboratories in Ukraine,” dismissing the claims as Chinese and Russian propaganda in a March 9, 2022, statement, the month after Kremlin forces invaded.

The clarification came in response to congressional testimony from Undersecretary of State for Political Affairs Victoria Nuland the day before, when she said: “Ukraine has biological research facilities which, in fact, we are now quite concerned Russian troops, Russian forces, may be seeking to gain control of.”
Under Trump, ODNI officials said the hasty denials were part of an “Information Resilience” strategy that sought to “shape the public narrative” to “mitigate and counter foreign malign influence,” while downplaying US ties to the research.
Last May, Trump signed an executive action to ban all federal funding for the gain-of-function research in China, Iran or other nations that don’t exercise proper oversight, claiming that SARS-CoV-2 had proved dangerous pathogens “can leak out innocently, stupidly and incompetently, but innocently and half destroy the world.”

The Defense Department’s watchdog had previously been unable to determine how many possible enhanced potential pandemic pathogens were being researched in China or other nations — despite more than $1.4 billion being spent on such experiments outside the US between 2014 and 2023.
Between 2014 and 2021, US-funded experiments on bat coronaviruses at the now-infamous Wuhan Institute of Virology were also found by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to have violated grant terms by making the viruses 10,000 times more infectious, though officials have denied that the research caused the COVID-19 pandemic.
In the past, both ex-National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) Director Dr. Anthony Fauci and other public health officials supported gain-of-function research on potential pandemic pathogens — so long as the benefits outweighed the risks.
“Putting aside the specter of bioterrorism for the moment, consider this hypothetical scenario: an important gain-of-function experiment involving a virus with serious pandemic potential is performed in a well-regulated, world-class laboratory by experienced investigators, but the information from the experiment is then used by another scientist who does not have the same training and facilities and is not subject to the same regulations,” Fauci wrote in a 2012 scientific paper titled “Research on Highly Pathogenic H5N1 Influenza Virus: The Way Forward.”
“In an unlikely but conceivable turn of events, what if that scientist becomes infected with the virus, which leads to an outbreak and ultimately triggers a pandemic?” Fauci asked. “Many ask reasonable questions: given the possibility of such a scenario—however remote—should the initial experiments have been performed and/or published in the first place, and what were the processes involved in this decision?”
“Scientists working in this field might say—as indeed I have said—that the benefits of such experiments and the resulting knowledge outweigh the risks,” he wrote.
Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said the Trump administration is righting the wrongs of the Biden administration.
“The prior administration bankrolled dangerous Gain-of-Function research and foreign biolabs with American tax dollars, then deliberately hid it from the American people,” Hegseth said in a statement.
“The declassification of this discovery shows how little oversight this work had. Under President Trump’s leadership, DNI Tulsi Gabbard and the entire Cabinet are righting these historic wrongs and delivering justice for our warfighters and the ones they protect. The era of lies and betrayal is over.”
The message from Gabbard himself:
I am deeply grateful to President Trump for the trust he has placed in me and for the opportunity I have been given to lead @ODNIgov over the past year and a half.
Unfortunately, I have to resign, effective June 30, 2026. My husband, Abraham, was recently diagnosed with an extremely rare form of bone cancer. He faces major challenges in the coming weeks and months. At this time, I must resign from my position in public service to stand by his side and fully support him in this fight.

With such a diagnosis from her husband, it seems to me that Gabbard will not put any energy into being fired. Nowadays MANY very rare types of cancer diagnoses... Viruses are absolutely not rare, especially in MSM, but at this point if you put a question mark behind these stories and/or whether it might suit the person, a blockage will be imposed in connection with this. violation of the DSA... Especially making people fearful, even for small children, with almost all of them now having the contagious CMV virus in the news again, is pure disinformation.
Nice addition from John Campbell. I don't watch it that often anymore, but this one is nice.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FPWXLE3GQY
As Nicholas Hulscher also indicated, a number of 'vaccines' have already been developed against the Hantavirus. Foresight! Moderna even has an mRNA variant. And according to Pfizer's own leaflet, a hanta virus infection is one of the possible side effects of their Covid 19 mRNA injection.
Nice revenue model, but why develop a vaccine against a virus that has been known for 80 years and occasionally occurs because of that mice and rat stuff? The market does not seem very big.
Campbell has to laugh about it himself.
De Telegraaf even had a separate tab on the web page for the hantavirus. Removed in the meantime. Clownworld.
I can't take it seriously anymore. Am I the only one?
It's a bit quiet above the line. Or maybe I'm looking forward a little too much to bar graphs of hospital admissions in 2020 (article we were promised) and that's why time passes so slowly. My heart beats with anticipation!
Speaking of that promised article: note in that analysis that only so-called main diagnoses have been released from public (statline) data and not secondary diagnoses (these are behind a paywall that you can only access if you have an academic appointment).
For example: if you were admitted with flu and pulmonary embolism in 2019, the main diagnosis (in the majority of cases) was pulmonary embolism (because the most serious disease) and flu was the secondary diagnosis.
While if you were admitted in 2020 with flu and pulmonary embolism, the main diagnosis was Covid, and the secondary diagnosis was pulmonary embolism (and flu was with sabbatical).
Since diagnoses were made in this way in 2020 between March and May in at least the regions of South Holland, North Brabant and North Holland (up to the Amsterdam Rhine Canal), many traditional diseases will have disappeared in 2020, but these can still be found in the secondary diagnoses (which, however, are not publicly available).
I say this because I have been wrong about this myself, and I imagine that others can be wrong too.
In this context, it may be interesting to see how many total main diagnoses were counted in the Netherlands in 2020 compared to, for example, 2019. I have done this before and saw (remarkably, because it was so busy in the ZH after all...) that LESS main diagnoses were counted in 2020 than in previous years. In other words: a) it was not that busy in ZH in 2020 and b) where have all those main diagnoses (such as pneumonia or other serious chest diseases) gone? -Because of the nice weather (just like flu) on sabbatical?
But this was all written down from memory and I would still like to see it in bar graphs (memory can be wrong sometimes).
Anyway, if things take more time than expected (and it is therefore a bit quiet above the line), I have another tip to read something from the old box, perhaps even put it above the line: an article by grandmaster Douwes Dekker (also known as Multatuli) who wrote something (in 1870) about how you should strive for truth (appropriate for Vv Leek me. Because this is something we all do here below the line, after all).
A quote anyway, because I think it is so appropriate for our current time, in which a wedge has been struck between truth seekers and those who think they know the truth:
'In general, the people are eager for an explanation of the untrue. No one would bother to listen to an argument that 2 × 2 = 4, but the proponent of the falsehood that 2 × 2 is more or less than four will always be able to count on a large audience if he only takes care to develop his baroque thesis a little with scholarly phrases. And there is no need for even this as long as the misunderstanding he proclaims corresponds to the conventional truth of the century, of the year, of the day. No untruth is shocking today that gradually joins in with the untruths of yesterday. Lies split minds like a wedge, and all too easily that wedge is driven forward when the sledgehammer blows are administered by an official hand.'

If this is all too off topic, then you should just take it away Anton. But since I think everything that can be said about hanta has been said, I took the liberty of using this space below the line for something else.
Who would have promised that, analysis of zho in 2020? Write a piece about it when the time comes!
I just heard that the WHO is now using the wild card on Ebola as an International Emergency.

From virus to vaccine… and today the big WHO conference.
This is really bad… (and still on-topic because of the connection with the WHO).

EXPERTS from the WHO (of which Ernst Kuypers is one) now link health to 'climate change'.
Ernst is out. Beautiful in itself. All those studies and all those questions on this forum about excess mortality are no longer necessary. That CO2 is a powerful substance. As usual, no substantiation whatsoever.
Pure propaganda

Vaccines seem to remain sacred to her and viruses are life-threatening and lab leak theory is convincing. (for me like three doubtful: viruses for me, if they exist at all, are commensal). Nevertheless, possibly enlightening.
