Those "HIV Inserts" in Sars-CoV-2 are not just random sequences after all
SUMMARY: The Sars-Cov-2 virus that causes COVID-19 contains genetic fragments of HIV. This post will show that numerous scientific studies created recombinant viruses containing genes from HIV. Thus, it should not surprise anyone that a lab-engineered pathogen such as Sars-Cov-2 is a recombinant carrier of HIV genes and expresses HIV peptides such as Gp120 or Gag.
HIV Inserts in Sars-Cov-2
You may have heard that Sars-Cov-2 contains certain genes from HIV, which causes AIDS. Those genes encode proteins that go into Covid-19’s “spike protein.” Thus, anyone who had Covid or received the Covid vaccine containing the same spike protein was exposed to the HIV peptides on the spike.
The above-mentioned proteins fold together, forming a functional equivalent of HIV’s gp120, as explained here.
This picture from the above article shows visually where these HIV peptides are on the spike:

Far from being random pointless genetic artifacts, these HIV peptides bind to immune cells and cause their destruction.
Fact Checks Describe this as a Baseless Conspiracy Theory
The press made significant efforts to discredit the “HIV genes in Sars-CoV-2” theory.

Are these fact checks factual? Is “HIV in Sars-CoV-2” a baseless right-wing conspiracy theory? Most importantly, was similar research done before?
NIH Funded Similar Coronavirus Recombinations
Scientists experimented with putting HIV and SIV (Simian Immunodeficiency Virus) bits into coronaviruses in the past, and the NIH supported such work.

In this 2008 grant, Amy Sims, who worked with Ralph Baric at UNC, describes her idea to put bits of Simian Immunodeficiency Virus (SIV, a precursor of HIV) into a human common cold virus OC43. (you probably had a few colds caused by OC43, which causes one-third of common colds). Amy then experimented with infecting monkeys with it.
There were numerous other attempts to add HIV genes to measles, poxviruses, and coronaviruses, specifically:
 |
As all HIV vaccines failed, and most made their recipients paradoxically more susceptible to becoming infected with HIV, the above-described 2008 work did not lead to a working HIV vaccine. In addition, Amy’s discussion of “mucosal immunity” against HIV seems to be at odds with the fact that HIV is blood-borne and is passed through contaminated drug needles, razors, or sexual acts where blood is exchanged (such as unprotected anal sex).
Adding bits and parts of HIV to viruses was the bread and butter of virology. Thus, the fact-checks that deny the possibility that HIV inserts in SARS-Cov-2 were engineered are less than truthful.
Here’s Luc Montagnier, a pioneer in the field of HIV, who coincidentally died soon after giving this interview, explaining that Sars-Cov-2 was engineered:
And lastly, here’s a brand-new Mar 24 interview with Robert Redfield, former director of the CDC who also worked on HIV and HIV vaccines with Anthony Fauci and Debora Birx, explaining that Sars-Cov-2 is a product of mostly US-based research:
Was SARS-CoV-2 a “Live Vaccine” or an Engineered Pathogen?
Many people opined that Sars-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19 was an attempt at creating a live vaccine that went spectacularly wrong. After all, some above-described experiments involved the creation of vaccines. The first peer-reviewed article that asserted that Sars-Cov-2 was engineered, written by Karl and Dan Sirotkin, alleged that the virus was created as a live vaccine.
While everything is possible, I doubt that story. The reasons for my doubt are as follows:
Attempts to create a coronavirus-based HIV vaccine failed a long time ago (see above)
There is no reason to add a furin cleavage site, which enhances infectivity and pathogenicity, to a vaccine
There is no reason to pick a “backbone” (an original virus that forms the basis of) for Sars-Cov-2 that was not already known to science
Lastly, extensive preparations for the pandemic in 2019 also point to a planned release of the virus instead of a lab accident.
The preparations are listed here:
Ralph Baric Described His Perfect Bioweapon
Ralph Baric has devoted a lot of thinking to biological weapons.
Here’s a fascinating article from him:
 |
Ralph shows that recombinant pathogens combining genes from several pathogens will likely be the future bioweapon. He then explains that high pathogenicity is NOT necessary for a perfect bioweapon: instead, what is important is that the bioweapon creates fear.
 |
He also details helpful suggestions for the creation of such designer super pathogens:
 |
Ralph worked on related projects for years. It would make sense that he should be asked to help find the culprits who created Sars-CoV-2.
I am unsure if Ralph would have to go far beyond his office to point at the culprits.
