Monkeypox virus

Editorial

In the fall of 2019, as reported by the Howe Enterprise, a 3.5-hour coronavirus pandemic tabletop exercise simulatedwhatstepswouldbenecessary if a real coronavirus created a pandemic across the world. Low and behold, a few months later, that exact scenario took place. During Event 201, as it was called, 15 global business, government, and public health leaders wereplayersin the simulation exercise that highlighted unresolved real-world policy and economic issues that could be solved with sufficient political will, financial investment, and attention now and in the future.

Don’t look now, but another exercise recently took place in March 2021 which was centered around a “hypothetical” monkeypox outbreak.

What should scare the water out of humans is that it was funded by Ted Turner’s non-profit Nuclear Threat Initiative (NIT). Turner has been very vocal over the years about his theory that the planet is in dire need for depopulation. The depopulation level needs to be cut by around 6 billion people according to Turner in an interview. This seems to be congruent with the thinking of Bill Gates who once saidon a “Ted Talk” of the 7.9 billion people , “If we do a really great job on new vaccines and health care and reproductive health services, we could lower that by perhaps 10 or 15 percent.” We’re not going to dive deep into the Georgia Guidestones in Turner’s back yard of Georgia, although there’s plenty to discuss about the “Ten Commandments of the Antichrist.” But it does make one wonder. Do the rich and powerful oligarchs really and truly want to eliminate much of the human race? Is the climate change narrative not about the planet, but about us? Are we the carbon they want to eliminate?

In the Holy Bible, Genesis 1:28 says, “And God blessed them. And God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” But under the Georgia Guidestones, it says humanity must be maintained under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature.

If the Lord sends plagues again to destroy a third of mankind, it is His will. We haven’t been the greatest humans this earth has ever seen lately. But if mankind creates a tabletop exercise to simulate a coming man-made pandemic, then the monkeying around needs to stop.

Government officials from the US and China and representatives of the World Health Organization (WHO), the United Nations, researchers from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and major pharma companies gathered at the Munich Security Conference in March to research responses to a monkeypox bioterror attack.

In the fictional scenario, a labenhanced monkeypox virus that eventually killed 270 million people in a worldwide 18-month pandemic. This portion of the exercise was sponsored by Facebook co-founder Dustin Moskovitz and his Open Philanthropies non-profit.

The fictional launch date was May 15, 2022, which ironically was the same week that saw a real life monkeypox virus begin the first international outbreak. This seems extremely strange coincidental timing. The NTI said just that, -that it was a “strange coincidence.” “There’s never been a global monkeypox outbreak outside of Africa until now —in the exact week of the exact month predicted by the biosecurity folks in their pandemic simulation,”wrote attorney Michael Sengerof the anti-lockdown Brownstone Institute. “Take these guys to Vegas!” The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), directed byDr. Anthony Fauci, last year paid $9.8 million to government researchers to test a monkeypox treatment, the National Pulse reported.

According tothe National Institutes for Health (NIH), which oversees the NIAID, the research began Sept. 28, 2020, and will conclude Sept. 27, 2025. Its goal is to carry out a “randomized, placebo-controlled trial of the safety and efficacy oftecovirimatfor the treatment of patients with monkeypox virus disease.” It is unclear if the grant provided for any payments in 2020.

The WHO said Monday it is too soon to tell whether a recent monkeypox outbreak could lead to a global pandemic but noted that there is a “window” of opportunity to curb rising cases.

A recent CNBC article said Monkeypox is arare but generally mild viral infectionthat can cause flu-like symptoms including rashes,fever, headaches, muscle ache, swelling and backpain. Typically, it is transmitted through lesions, bodily fluids or materials that have been in contact with an infected person or animal.

Though sporadic monkeypox outbreaks are not unusual in Central and West African countries where the virus is endemic, health experts have been puzzled by a recent surge in cases across Europe, North America, and Australia, raising fears of community spread.

As of Sunday, there were 435 confirmed and suspected cases in 24 countries outside of Africa, according toOur World in Data.There have not yet been any recorded fatalities from the current outbreak.

trophy in his first fight from Golden Gloves. That gives him an undefeated record to begin his young career.

He says he wants to continue to box longer than his father did which would make him 30 years old. Sergio began fighting in the Panhandle of Texas in Muleshoe. His best friend’s father coached his son and began coaching him.

“My dad boxed, and we always had gloves and punching bags. We were the weekend entertainment as kids,” said Sergio Garcia.

Sergio was in and out of boxing over the years as he was active as a pre-teen and then again in high school. Once moving to Dallas in 1998 at age 25 he joined a gym and began to box again.

Cruz also plays football and baseball and says he will play basketball for the first time this coming season. But he still says boxing is his favorite.

His friends at school know he’s a boxer but he says he’s glad that they don’t talk about it.

“No one really cares, which I enjoy because I don’t want to be annoyed about it,” said Cruz. “They annoy me more about what their record is on video games than my boxing career.” Most people might be reading this and wondering how mom handles all of this fighting with father and son.

“She doesn’t think about it,” said Sergio of his wife Susan. “She doesn’t say much. She was nervous the first time he fought because she didn’t know how he was going to do, but he did pretty good, so I don’t think she was as nervous this last time.” Sergio says training him is a joy but they but heads a lot. “He’s a stubborn little boy and I have to pull the father card every once in a while, during training. If I teach him something, he picks it up pretty quick and it’s neat to watch him. It’s great seeing him progress from when we first started taking him to the gym to now.” As Cruz continues to box, the competition will get better, and Sergio knows

right now that kids aren't going to be able to do any real damage to his son. But in a few years, things could get ugly.

“Right now, it doesn’t bother me seeing him take a hit, but when they get older and kids start hitting harder and get more experience and the talent level goes up, it might be more nerveracking, but at that age right now—he’s a tough little kid and can take a punch.

He says his next fight will come in August. He will have the opportunity to win a championship belt during that tournament.
