Sorry to see Mike Peters of The Alarm take his leave of us. Some of us go through challenges in life but having read this, I really feel I’ve had it easy.

Not familiar with his band but still saddened to hear of another cancer death, my wife has surgery booked for the 10th and grateful its a small opp. The oncologists are quite insistent that radiotherapy is necessary so when we get back from holiday in france that will commence. Reconstructive surgery next year.
Sorry to hear your news Corona and all the best to your wife and to you.
Thanks Sue, its not that bad, obviously the re occurance is a nuisance but there are far worse off people out there.

Covid does strange things to your immune system, cancer rates - especially young people - are up since the pandemic; I know correlation != causation but not hard to join the dots.
Ooh sounds like a conspiracy theory 
the research I have been listening to now its not illegal to question suggests in some people the jab and or covid can turn off a (from memory) P5 anti cancer protein. There are a few doctors treating long covid and jab damaged cases (called the zero spike project) and have found a modified (NAC N Acetyl L Cysteine) can breakdown the spike protein so bringing the immune system back to its previous steady state. All interesting stuff. Prof Angus Dalgleish has been very vocal in the sudden resurgence of cancers in otherwise stable people.

P53?
More likely to be the virus - which does all sorts of stuff to evade the immune system than the vaccine which encodes a single protein.
I remain more than a little sceptical about the “invented in the lab and deliberately released” conspiracy theory (being studied and accidentally got out is about as far as I would go) but you have to admit if Covid was engineered as a bioweapon it is an excellent one.
I dont doubt it was engineered and yes proof of concept is rather scarry, I think that is a separate issue from how it got out. There are as you are no doubt aware several documents from WEF etc describing a “test”. When very rich people invest in “cures” but pull out their money once the max increases in share price is achieved is not philanthropic.
Well my son’s spleen infarctus was not ruled out as caused by the covid jab or even the covid itself which none of us tested positive for in all the time of the pandemic, by the specialist surgeon who he travelled to Toulouse especially to be seen by as it wasn’t the first case recently after not seeing such a thing for many years in his career! Who knows what is being pumped into us either in medicine, food,water and other items these days!
Oh dear, let’s not go down the infinite rabbit hole of conspiracy theory shall we.
If you want to know what is in food, look at the ingredient list, if you want to know what is in the water you drink look at the analysis published for your region.
If you want to know what is in the medicine that you take, look at the manufacturer’s data - published online by the electronic medicines compendium - Home - electronic medicines compendium (emc) in the UK, I believe there is a French equivalent.

The Vidal, I should think.
Interesting. I would have said it was poor, because it’s unstable (therefore unpredictable and gradually degrading) and too quick to show symptoms while not being very lethal for a majority. And effective bioweapon would be more reliable, take a long time before showing symptoms enabling wider spread and more lethal to the host after spreading. It might also contain some form of off switch or have a clear working period after which it self-inactivates.

Its poor this time as it may have leaked before it was fully ready 
Are you looking at it through the lens of the current status quo?
Pre-vaccination it was rapidly spreading so the incubation period was certainly long enough, it made enough people ill enough to overwhelm the health service and a good few died.
The fact that it is rapidly mutating is probably a bit of a double-edged sword, on the one hand it defeats efforts to find treatment or come up with an effective vaccine. On the other it keeps your enemy tied up trying.
That said you are probably right - some sort of built in drug target so you can give your own troops effective treatment would be a good idea in a viral bioweapon. Maybe they were trying to add that when it escaped the lab (tongue somewhat in cheek there 
)

But it was easy enough to fix with masks and a quarantine. If it was like HIV that took a long time to start killing people it could have spread to almost 100% before being noticed. Plus way too many survived with minor symptoms.
Sadly not Boris, one of the bad few.
Not sure it was “fixed” with masks or lockdown - maybe if we had really locked down.
But if you are an invading force everyone completely isolated at home would be useful, would it not?
Its going to be a long long time before I forget the Swedish model.
Wow, she must have been pretty spectacular. 
TBH unless there was absolutely no warning, it’s hard to imagine the army sitting quietly at home while a foreign army parachutes in.
That was back in 1985, we met in London and again in Gothenburg buts thats a whole different story
