RFK Jr: Lyme Disease, RSV, Covid-19 “Almost Certainly” Created By Gain-of-Function Research — And U.S. Will End It Worldwide

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said during interviews on CNN and FOX News this morning that the U.S. has a plan to end viral gain-of-function research around the world, in addition to a complete ban inside the U.S.

ROBERT F. KENNEDY JR.: Gain-of-function research is a kind of research where you take a pathogenic organism, like a coronavirus, and you try to make it more virulent. You try to get it so it can spread faster and so that it’s more deadly.

Why would you do such a thing? Either because you want to weaponize it, or you say, “We want to develop a vaccine against future mutations” — which is nonsense.

No good thing has ever come from gain-of-function research.

People have been trying to put guardrails around it for generations, and it hasn’t worked.

Clearly, the COVID-19 pandemic and many other global pandemics that we have had have come from gain-of-function research.

The RSV epidemic that we have, which is the biggest killer of kids in this country today, came from these kinds of experiments. Lyme disease almost certainly came from this kind of research.….

We’ve had too many bad things happen: Lyme disease, which almost certainly came from these experiments and is devastating our country; RSV, which came from a laboratory and is now the biggest killer of children in our country; and, of course, the COVID-19 pandemic, which was a trauma for the whole globe.

**Comment**

RFK Jr. has done nothing but take heat since he stepped into office. For a perfect illustration see this interview with CNN. Although I don’t entirely agree with everything he says at times, I must entirely concur with him here in that the press’ responsibility is to represent truth, not ‘beat up dissenting voices.’ Instead, they have become spin-doctors for the very industries and institutions they should be exposing.

The press (SIX corporations control 90% of American media) and those with ‘authority‘ played a very large role in the absolute madness of the COVID debacle but few have admitted wrong doing. ‘Mistakes’ were not made. There was political interference at HHS & governments working in lockstep for all things COVID, but Dr. Fauci (who invoked the 5th Amendment more than 100 times) was far from alone in this process; however, his edicts are what caused people to lose jobs, forfeit education, and why a multitude are still suffering from taking an experimental gene therapy they insisted was ‘safe and effective,’ when it was neither. And nobody has a bead on the true psychological impacts on mental health throughout this ordeal.

For more:

Regarding COVID, I remember reading (I believe it was Spartacus) that it is false to only consider an accidental release and that it very well may have been intentional. I must add this to also be the case for Lyme and RSV, and the other many tweaked pathogens.
