When I spoke to Poornima Wagh last week, a claimed double Ph.D., she didn't know that there were multiple versions of SARS-CoV-2 in the genetic libraries. There are currently 12 million of them.
In the original version of this article, I said that the Corman-Drosten paper proved the reality of the pandemic when it only claimed to. That paper has since been discredited as a work of scientific fraud by an independent peer review team.
You may read more about it and other important late 2020 developments here.
Sorry, wrestling with Substack's content system today. Here is the correct paragraph:
She claims to have personally proved the nonexistence of the virus from an astounding 1,500 samples of lung lavage from “covid positive” pneumonia patients (of which she claims that 756 were analyzed) in the United States— and to have written a scientific paper about this that she will not produce.
MIke Donio, one of my science sources in this investigation, says:
She really botched the agarose gel part. Badly.
You wouldn’t never follow up sequencing with a gel. Maybe PCR but it’s qualitative and crude. If she’s doing meta genomic sequencing, like high throughput mass tandem, there’s no way you could do a gel because you have millions of little pieces that you are simultaneously sequencing. I mean she literally says that you “can actually see the little particles of RNA and DNA”.
Not even close.
You see a band. That’s it. And you assume it’s the piece of DNA you think but only based on size. And there wouldn’t be RNA. You probably know this. When sequencing RNA one of the first steps is reverse transcription to convert the RNA to cDNA. Then you amplify with PCR and then sequence. This is actually a slightly more proper application for PCR versus the ridiculous tests. Regardless, she’s way off.
I've been looking for evidence of this so-called FBI raid, which I believe is the key to this entire story because it's what made people want to listen in the first place.
No raid, no story. So where's the proof?
So far, there is nothing I have found to corroborate that this FBI raid on a Texas university campus on April 25, 2021, ever occurred... nothing noted by the FBI on their site from that period of time, nothing tweeted by college kids on campus who were interested in why a raid was occurring at their school or frightened by the presence of federal agents, nothing in local, regional, or state news during a time when 22 universities are under extreme scrutiny for supposed "ties to Wuhan," which at least one university has since admitted.
The press has been tightly surveilling these universities for two years now. And yet, this alleged FBI raid has gone unreported?
I love that this community is not allowing the behavior to go unaddressed, especially in light of the fact that the primary argument reduces one of the mainstream's darling Hegelian dialectics to absolute ash - no wonder it's under attack. Anyone who thinks it wouldn't be under attack is, to be honest, incredibly naive to the workings of tactical information warfare and needs to understand more clearly that this is exactly what is happening. This is information warfare, plain and simple.
Additionally, we already know how often and egregiously the truth has been stretched on multiple *provable* occasions, so I would like to urge people not to be fooled by crocodile tears. Your heartstrings are being played like a fiddle.
Eric, thank you for running with this and not letting it go. It's important for reasons that many simply do not understand yet. They will get there in time. It's an extremely complex topic with a lot of non-obvious moving parts.
It's like someone who claims to be a material sciences specialist who says pure iron melts at 1000 deg F under standard conditions, vs 2800 deg F. Re the Yankees: you never heard of the Yankees playing the Mets in an exhibition football game? :-)
did she also say that she couldn't find any partial sequences from the millions she has to choose from that matched the template of whatever 'original' she was using?
A disgrace indeed. The whole “truther” movement is largely ridiculous. Thank god for a few folks such as yourself, Eric. And people with sanity in some comments on the internet.
Yes she obviously lied, now can we move on? Do virus particles cause disease or are they the bi-product of a disease process caused by something else? Has disease ever been caused by anyone, anywhere at any time via a simple test of taking virus particles from a diseased animal or person and placing them in a disease-free animal or person?
Thank you for exposing her before she could do more damage to the virus skeptic movement. I guess virus skeptics should be flattered the Deep State is trying to discredit them.
Apart from her fake credentials, is her name even real? Because if it is, it might be easier for a really diligent investigator to determine if she has ANY background at all, who she might be linked to, and whether or not she is some kind of strawperson-dissident-virologist needed and invented by Big Pharma and other string-pullers to throw us off the scent and make all dissident virologists look like phoneys, dupes or just plain unreliable. I strongly suspect that she is more than an attention-hungry grad student and more likely a weird meta-controlled opposition entity generated by the Borg.
You bring so much to this discussion, you 40 year history of scientific, Investigative jouralism, the vast depth and breadth of your knowledge and experience, your humor, style, and pizzazz.
Thanks Eric for following up on this. I e-mailed you my concerns back in August - sorry I didn't respond, and I'm glad you got the word out about the red flags I sensed about Wagh in a way I couldn't. This whole situation has been incredibly disheartening to the point I'm so depressed I won't even open emails just to protect myself from the news. Also, you took the time to do a proper journalistic investigation - a full month of research and consideration.
Thanks for using true disinfectant on this situation. For every person who made social media posts about how Bill Gates and George Soros personally chipped their cousin, or how quickly someone shared a cobra venom meme, I have wanted to let them know that they are not furthering the cause. If the truth is what will prevail, your exposé keeps the cause pure. There is always someone selling a highjacked reality; as upsetting as it is that we can’t count Poormina as a trustworthy source, it is good practice for everyone to question everything.
All of this being said, Poormina was right that the foundations of science as we have been taught need to be completely re-examined and re-built. Even a broken clock...
I sincerely thank you for your hard work; for the high quality and factual standards and practices you uphold, (for yourself and everyone else,) and for sharing your findings with us all.
New Media is *vital* (especially when MSM are clearly paid-for and imho, not to be trusted,) and you are correct to suggest that a code of ethics, or standards, should be created and adhered to so that we "the public" can trust the "alternative" sources of information we consume everyday. I hope your endeavours to bring this about are fruitful, for the good of humanity, in this crazy digital world!
I have made a small donation because people like yourself deserve to be encouraged, funded, supported and cheered for the work that you do for the greater good. I am not a scientist, an investigative journalist, or an academic. I am just a UK-based husband and father who is trying to make the right decisions to keep my family safe and well, and by stumbling across your work by chance, I feel I am ever-closer to that goal. Thank you so much.

Brilliant work, Eric. Thank you so seeing so clearly what I could not.

How is that even possible?
I outlined the outstanding questions I still have about this here: https://starfirecodes.substack.com/p/who-is-poornima-wagh-and-why-is-the - and when I realized that my prediction about her rise and fall was being played out to the full extent of the limited notoriety she had already achieved, I updated here: https://starfirecodes.substack.com/p/the-plan-to-prop-up-and-then-take, but I also wanted to point out that Moon Maiden Musings took one of the questions I had from the first article and went into a super impressive and thorough deep dive on that topic which I found incredibly helpful, and that's here: https://moonmaiden.substack.com/p/is-fuellmich-positioning-to-prop

She’s clearly delusional. I kind of feel sorry for her. Mental illness is real. She’s certainly not helping the movement

Bravo. Thank you for your work.
