- Dear Friends,
-
- Posted below this small article are the 31 viruses found
in the U.S. SARS genome sequence. There is too much ignorance and confusion
on the front lines about "should we wear a mask or gloves if we see
something similar but it is not testing positive for Coronavirus?"
(the SARS test). All of these viruses in the SARS cocktail are BOTH secretion
spread and AIRBORNE or air droplet spread. If you can't find coronavirus,
you have 30 others to look for and their symptoms. The "free access"
to the SARS genome, costs a minimum of $70 for being a student member to
get the journal (only 17% accurate in tests).

- A FIGHT FOR FREE ACCESS TO MEDICAL RESEARCH
-
- Why is it, a growing number of people are asking, that
anyone can download medical nonsense from the Web for free, but citizens
must pay to see the results of carefully conducted biomedical research
that was financed by their taxes? The Public Library of Science aims to
change that. The organization, founded by a Nobel Prize-winning biologist
and two colleagues, is plotting the overthrow of the system by which scientific
results are made known to the world -- a $9 billion publishing juggernaut
with subscription charges that range into thousands of dollars per year.

- Personal Comment: It looks like a "barnyard orgy"
in there with humans.
-
- While we are busy looking at exotic animals and foods,
we see a repeat pattern........Pigs, Cows, Chickens, Turkeys, Mice, Cats
and Dogs.
-
- For illnesses we see a repeat pattern and many varieties
of GASTROENTERITIS, BRONCHITIS, DIARRHEA, HEPATITIS AND FLU........WITH
SOME ENCEPHALOMYELITIS THROWN IN.
-
- These have been published since May, 2003 and the front
line health care pros can't seem to get the message yet.

- I'm afraid Astraea's comments will mislead your readers.
The viruses in the original publications are ones that were shown to be
genetically related to the SARS virus, not present in the SARS sample that
was sequenced. The distinction is incredibly important because it tells
us the SARS virus is similar but not identical to all previously identified
coronaviruses.
-
- While it may have some common transmission and replication
traits with some of the viruses listed it is definetly a distinct, single
virus that was sequenced not a collection of viruses.
-
- I do, however agree with Astraea's comments on accessibility
to federally funded scientific research. Not only is it expensive to subscribe
to these journals but you should see the costs associated with publishing
articles in the journals!
