Ebolagate: 47 questions and answersJon Rappoport Q: What is the major psychological factor at work here? A: Above all else, it is people making an automatic connection between their own frightening image of Ebola and the statement, So-and-so is sick. Q: Sick doesnt automatically=Ebola? A: Thats right, even when an authority says some person is sick and in the hospital and has Ebola. Q: Is the Ebola epidemic a fraud, in the same way that Swine Flu was a fraud? A: In the summer of 2009, the CDC stopped counting cases of Swine Flu in the US. Q: Why? A: Because lab tests on samples taken from likely and diagnosed Swine Flu cases showed no presence of the Swine Flu virus or any other kind of flu virus. Q: So the CDC was caught with its pants down? A: Around its ankles. It was claiming tens of thousands of Americans had Swine Flu, when that wasnt the case at all. So why should we believe them now, when they say, The patient was tested and he has Ebola. The CDC is Fraud Central. Q: Where is the fraud now, when it comes to counting Ebola cases and labeling people with the Ebola diagnosis? A: The diagnostic tests being run on patientsthe antibody and PCR tests are most frequently usedare utterly unreliable and useless. Q: Therefore, many, many people could be labeled Ebola, when that is not the case at all? A: Correct. Q: But people are sick and dying. A: People are always sick and dying. You can find them anywhere you look. That doesnt mean theyre Ebola cases. Q: In other words, medical authorities can place a kind of theoretical grid over sick and dying people and reinterpret them as Ebola. A: Exactly. The map can be drawn in any number of ways. Q: Could an Ebola patient have other viruses in his body? A: Of course. Many other viruses. The mere presence of a virus does not mean a person is sick or is going to get sick. Q: What test needs to be run, in order to say, This person is sick because of Ebola. A: First of all, the Ebola virus would need to be isolated from the patient directly. The two tests I mentioned above are indirect. Then, if Ebola is isolated from the patient directly, a test needs to show that the patient is harboring millions of active Ebola virusthats called a test for titer. Q: Are these procedures being done as a matter of course on people suspected of having Ebola? A: No. Q: Were told that the Dallas Ebola patient was vomiting profusely outside his apartment, before he was sent to the hospital. Isnt this a symptom of Ebola? A: It could be a symptom of many things. Some news reports state that the patient had already been to the hospital, where he was given antibiotics and sent home. All classes of antibiotics list nausea and vomiting as adverse effects. Q: So the symptoms of Ebola, like cough, fever, fatigue, diarrheathese can be attributed to many causes? A: Absolutely. The flu, for example. Q: Now were seeing a search operation for contacts of several Ebola patients. A: This will whip up hysteria to new heights. But where is the proof that the original patients have Ebola? Q: Again, the original patients are sick. A: Sick does not automatically equal Ebola. Q: Whats killing all those people in West Africa? A: With the tests being run on themand many are simply eyeballed and called Ebolathere is no proof that any of these people have Ebola. Q: There are other long-term reasons for death and dying in West Africa? A: Protein-calorie malnutrition, hunger, starvation, extreme poverty, contaminated water supplies, overall lack of basic sanitation, a decade of horrific war, toxic medical drugs, prior toxic vaccine campaigns, etc. Q: And the combined effect of these conditions? A: Destruction of immune systems. Then, any germ that sweeps through the population, a germ that would ordinarily be defeated, instead kills many people. Why? Because the immune system is too weak to respond. With healthy and strong immune systems, the germs would have no significant effect. Q: What about the health workers in West Africa who have died? A: Since unreliable diagnostic tests would have been run on them, we dont have any idea why they died. But at least some of them were suffering greatly from working inside hazmat suits, sealed off from the outside. In a one-hour shift, in boiling heat, they were losing five quarts of body fluid, then coming out, rehydrating, disinfecting with toxic chemicals, putting their suits on again, going back to patients for the next shift, losing extraordinary amounts of body fluid again, and so forth and so on. That would cause anyone to collapse. Q: But this has to be an Ebola epidemic, with all the press coverage, with statements from the CDC, with announcements from experts. A: Thats what they said about Swine Flu, which was a dud. This doesnt have to be Ebola just because official sources say it is. Q: Lets get back to the psychological factors involved here. A: A person has heard all about how dangerous Ebola is. He has a fear of some unknown invisible tiny killer, a virus. He has heard about bad diseases coming from Africa. Now, someone from the CDC stands up and talks about the threat of Ebola and says a patient with Ebola is in a Dallas hospital, and is sick. Whats the effect? Utter acceptance of the idea that the hospital patient has Ebola. Its Ebola. It couldnt be anything else. Q: But it could be something else? A: Of course. Q: People dont want to accept that, though. They want to believe in the doctors and the CDC and the tests that are run on people to decide if they have Ebola. A: That belief isnt based on anything real. Q: People believe in the power of what theyre told. A: Yes. Its interesting to see people who otherwise call the CDC a fraud suddenly accept the CDCs edict about Ebola. There is no rational substance to that acceptance. Q: So to be clear, youre saying there might not be an Ebola epidemic at all. A: What do you need to determine whether people have Ebola? Accurate diagnostic tests. Accurate tests arent being done. So this is an unproven epidemic. And making the assertion of an epidemic is a hoax. Q: Like the Swine Flu. A: Exactly. As I said, in the summer of 2009, the CDC stopped counting cases of Swine Flu and yet maintained there was an epidemic. The samples of blood from patients they sent to labs showed, in the overwhelmingly number of cases, that there was no Swine Flu virus present. Q: And at that time, how many cases of Swine Flu had the CDC already said were present in the US? A: Tens of thousands. Q: And what did the CDC do next? A: Unbelievably, they doubled down and estimated there were22 MILLION cases of Swine Flu in the US. Thats the level of lying were dealing with here. And now, the CDC says Ebola is loose. The diagnostic tests theyre running and relying on are useless. But everybody and his brother believes the CDC. Q: Again, people dying doesnt automatically equal Ebola? Youll hear, What else could it be? It must be Ebola. A: People have all sorts of preconceptions that lead them to say, It must be Ebola. Here is the sequence: We hear nothing about people dying. Then the press reports, People are dying. Its an outbreak. Its Ebola. And that is automatically accepted. Why? Because populations have been tuned up by decades of propaganda to make those connections. Q: Believing what you say herethis would imply such an enormous level of fraudits unthinkable. A: No, its not unthinkable. Again, for comparison, I refer you to the Swine Flu hoax. That was absolutely staggering. It was exposed by CBS reporter Sharyl Attkisson in October of 2009. She published her work on the CBS website. CBS was about to put the story on the Evening News. Then it was stopped. Attkisson was cut off at the knees. Censored. Q: Why? A: Because the entire vaccine establishment, including the CDC, which is really a PR agency for pharmaceutical companies, would have been exposed for all to see. By calling Swine Flu an epidemic, millions and millions of Swine Flu shots were given. The CDC, knowing the epidemic was a fraud, their own fraud, was pitching the vaccine as if their lives depended on it. Q: Was the World Health Organization (WHO) involved in the fraud? A: They started it. A: As Peter Doshi has written in BMJ Online, in the spring of 2009, with only 20 cases of Swine Flu in the world20the WHO declared Swine Flu a level 6 pandemic, their highest classification of danger. Not only that, they changed their own definition of pandemic, so that it no longer had to mean widespread and severe death and dying. They just changed the meaning of word pandemic. Quite Orwellian. Q: But the US government is buying and distributing hazmat suits. People are being quarantined. There is a hunt for contacts of the Dallas patient. Stories in the press are ramping up fear. All these people couldnt be wrong. A: I have condos for sale on the moon. I think you might be an ideal customer. Q: Speaking of the CDC, a long-term scientist with the agency, William Thompson, recently admitted he committed fraud, when he co-authored a 2004 study that claimed the MMR vaccine had no connection to autism. A: Thompson had several co-authors from the CDC on that study. They all committed fraud. Consider the conversations that must have taken place at the CDC to arrange that fraud. Q: Do you think the fraud went all the way to the top of the CDC? A: In 2004, whistleblower Thompson wrote a letter to Julie Gerberding, the head of the CDC. He warned her he was about to present troubling and sensitive data about the vaccine at an upcoming conference on vaccines and autism. His meaning was clear. He had found a vaccine-autism connection. Q: What did Gerberding do? A: She never answered Thompsons letter, and his presentation at the conference was canceled. Q: Is Gerberding still the head of the CDC? A: No. She left the CDC in 2009. Q: Where is she now? A: Shes the president of Merck vaccines. Q: What vaccine do they manufacture? A: The MMR. Q: The same vaccine Thompson found had a connection to autism? A: Yes. Q: And for 10 years, from 2004 to now, Thompson and his co-authors sat on the knowledge that the MMR vaccine has a connection to autism? A: Yes. Q: And this is the same CDC that now wants us to believe that there is an Ebola epidemic? A: Yes. As I was saying, I have a lovely condo for you on the dark side of the moon. Swimming pool, outdoor grill, playground for the kiddies, nine-hole golf course. Interested? Q: No comment. But since weve come this far, perhaps you could explain why the tests for diagnosing Ebola are unreliable and useless. A: Lets start with the antibody test. Two problems. First, the test is notorious for whats called cross-reactions. That means the test isnt really registering, in this case, the presence of Ebola. Its registering one of a whole host of other factors. For example, the patient received a vaccine, and that triggers a falsely positive reading. Q: Whats the second problem? A: The antibody test doesnt say whether a person was sick, is sick, or will get sick. At best, if there are no cross-reactions, it merely says the person had contact with the virus in question. So a positive antibody test for Ebola is far from saying this person has Ebola. Thats a lie. In fact, before 1985, the general conclusion from positive antibody tests was: this is a good sign; the patients immune system contacted the germ and threw it off, defeated it. Q: What about the PCR test for Ebola? A: This test is prone to many mistakes, starting with the tiny, tiny sample of material taken from the patient. Is it really genetic material, and is that material really a piece of a virus, or is it just a piece of general and irrelevant debris? The test itself takes that tiny sample and amplifies it millions of times so it can be observed. Assuming it is actually Ebola virus, or a fragment of Ebola virus, there is no indication there is enough of the virus in the patients body to make him sick. There have to be millions upon millions of active virus in the patients body to begin to say that virus is causing problems. The PCR test says nothing about that. In fact, why was it necessary to do the PCR test at all? If the patient had enough Ebola virus in his body to cause illness, there was no need to search for a tiny fragment of a hoped-for Ebola virus, to start the PCR test. The virus would have been everywhere.
