What Makes SARS-CoV-2 More Infectious.

12 February 2022

The Role Of The RBM:ACE2 Interface. A little over a year ago, we set out how increased infectiousness meant greater vulnerability, i.e. a new variant may be more infectious but it is also more susceptible to destruction by the innate immune response. The chances are that most people now know what a structural spike protein […]

How Each Of Us Causes Every Variant.

31 January 2022

The Four Nucleobases. Almost exactly twelve months ago, we explained how increased transmissibility also meant greater vulnerability, i.e. a new variant may be more infectious but it is also more susceptible to detection by the immune system. This was first evidenced by our study of SARS-CoV-2-SG614, also one year ago now. Despite there being virtually […]

Why Is Nitric Oxide’s Key Role Ignored?

28 July 2021

Role In The Innate Immune Response. It is a year since we first identified the significance of vitamin D in respect of SARS-CoV-2. Through the vitamin D pathways it can both prevent viral infection and attenuate disease progression and severity. Yet the role of vitamin D-modulated nitric oxide remains largely ignored and dismissed by the NHS as […]

Tests That Would Have Saved Thousands.

13 May 2021

UK COVID-19 mortality rate remains one of the highest in the world. On a population-adjusted basis (for fair comparison) the UK mortality rate is 4.36x the worldwide average, which means there have been an additional 98,364 deaths in the UK (@0500UTC 13/05/21, source: Johns Hopkins Coronavirus Resource Center/Worldmeters). Deaths that were avoidable. One of the […]

These ‘Vaccines’ Become More Dangerous By The Day.

15 April 2021

Treatments Targeting The S Protein Were Already Ineffective. We have been vehement critics of the miracle ‘wonderdrug’ antivirals (they are not vaccines) rushed onto the market in recent months. In October 2020, we first set out the difference between vaccines and antivirals and highlighted the risks in RNA/mRNA vaccine candidates: these fall into the category […]

The ‘Third Wave’ That Has Been Here All Along.

24 March 2021

B1.1.7 v B1.1.28 v B1.351. As we have previously explained, SARS-CoV-2 neither thinks nor acts geographically. Yet the misleading designation of SARS-CoV-2 variants on a geographical basis continues to dominate media coverage and government obsession, with the putative ‘third wave’ being down to either the Brazilian variant or the UK variant dependent upon whether you […]

Why Geographical Naming Of Variants Is Wrong.

5 March 2021

B1.1.28 and B1.351 – They Are All ‘Johnny Foreigner’ Variants To The Government. In recent months, the government has made much of the emergence of new ‘killer mutations of death’, obsessing about ‘South African’ and ‘Brazilian’ geographical variants. Before going further, one should refer to these variants by their correct designations: the Brazilian variant is […]

Why The S Protein Is Not The Target You Are Looking For.

11 February 2021

The First Lesson Of Camouflage – Not Being Seen. The majority of vaccines and antivirals both in use and in development as SARS-CoV-2 countermeasures target the structural Spike protein. We have highlighted previously that as the S protein trimers contain the RBDs, the S protein houses the virion’s principal weapon and is therefore the obvious, […]

Clap For Chris – The Greatest Scientist…NOT.

6 February 2021

This Man Is Supposed To Be In Charge. Earlier this week, the Chief Medical Officer was heckled in the street by someone who disagreed with him. Perhaps not the most appropriate way to make your point – even if the point being made was absolutely correct – but if you are a true leader and […]

More Infectious Equals More Vulnerable.

28 January 2021

Infectiousness And Infectivity Are Not The Same. Infectiousness is how easily a pathogen can spread and infectivity is the level of disease severity it can cause. We explained this in more detail earlier this month in response to the UK government’s regular – and one would predicate deliberate – confusion of the two. S-VoC / […]
