In 1967, June Almeida presented a paper supposedly showing the first EM images of the “coronavirus” structure. These images were published two years after D.A. Tyrrell discovered the B814 strain in 1965 and a year after Dorothy Hamre discovered strain 229E in 1966. The samples that Almeida used to characterize the previously unseen “viruses” were… Continue reading June Almeida And The First “Coronavirus” EM Images (1967)

Hamre’s “Coronavirus” 229E Paper (1966)
In 1966, Dorothy Hamre “isolated” what she termed specimen 229E from tissue cultures using specimens from college students. She noticed what she said was distinct cytopathic changes (CPE) from known “viruses” and the results she obtained from indirect antibody testing led her to conclude it was a new respiratory “virus.” The 229E “virus” is now… Continue reading Hamre’s “Coronavirus” 229E Paper (1966)
D.A. Tyrrell’s 2nd “Coronavirus” Discovery Paper (1966)
This is the second paper by D.A. Tyrrell that is considered as preliminary evidence for the existence of human “coronaviruses.” Notice, as in his first paper from 1965, that once again there are numerous assumptions which are made, the least of which is that there is a “virus” present in the samples to begin with.… Continue reading D.A. Tyrrell’s 2nd “Coronavirus” Discovery Paper (1966)
D.A. Tyrrell’s “Coronavirus” Discovery Paper (1965)
If you want to truly understand the insane leaps in logic, the numerous assumptions, and the lack of evidence regarding any “virus,” you must always trace things back to the original source for the discovery of said “virus.” If the paper claiming the isolation of a novel “virus” is unable to actually show purification/isolation of… Continue reading D.A. Tyrrell’s “Coronavirus” Discovery Paper (1965)
Further Proof The Influenza “Virus” Was Never Purified and Isolated
“Isolation and purification of a virus is necessary before a vaccine can be made.” The above statement came from the New York Times obituary of Wendell Meredith Stanley, considered by some to be the “Father of Virology.” While it is technically a correct statement, it really should read: Isolation and purification of the particles believed… Continue reading Further Proof The Influenza “Virus” Was Never Purified and Isolated
Did Thomas Francis Jr. Isolate Influenza B in 1940?
After “isolating” the influenza A “virus” in 1934 and supposedly “isolating” it again on tissue culture and egg membrane in 1937, Thomas Francis Jr. was back in 1940 to perform more grotesque serial passages of ground up chemically altered diseased animal tissue goo from one animal into another. He must have decided that the perfect… Continue reading Did Thomas Francis Jr. Isolate Influenza B in 1940?
Thomas Francis Jr.’s Flu Review (1937)
When I originally started researching the origins of the supposed isolation of the influenza “virus,” I was not expecting to spend so much time on Thomas Francis Jr. It became evident, however, that throughout the early flu research of the 1930’s and 40’s, Francis Jr. was “Mr. Influenza.” It was also apparent that his research… Continue reading Thomas Francis Jr.’s Flu Review (1937)
Did Thomas Francis Jr. Isolate Influenza A in 1937?
In 1937, a few years after Smith, Andrewes, and Laidlaw supposedly isolated influenza A in 1933 and after Thomas Francis Jr. supposedly isolated it in 1934, Francis Jr. once again claimed to have the direct isolation of influenza A “virus,” this time in tissue culture medium and on an egg membrane. Or at least that… Continue reading Did Thomas Francis Jr. Isolate Influenza A in 1937?
Did Thomas Francis Jr. Isolate Influenza A in 1934?
“Epidemiology must constantly seek imaginative and ingenious teachers and scholars to create a new genre of medical ecologists who, with both the fine sensitivity of the scientific artist, and the broad perception of the community sculptor, can interpret the interplay of forces which result in disease.” —Thomas Francis, Jr. After the British trio of Smith,… Continue reading Did Thomas Francis Jr. Isolate Influenza A in 1934?
Was Influenza A Isolated in 1933?
Two years after Richard Shope “discovered” that an invisible “virus” was the assumed cause of the swine flu in 1931, three other researchers decided to determine the “viral” cause of human influenza. These researchers were Wilson Smith, Christopher Andrewes, and Patrick Laidlaw. In order to determine the cause of influenza in humans, these brave researchers… Continue reading Was Influenza A Isolated in 1933?
