Netherlands, I predicted the same Furin Cleavage site that was added to SARS to create SARS-2 or COVID-19 would be added to MERS to create a “MERS-2” georgewebb.substack.com/p/did-a-smokin… Moderna’s '16 patent for the manmade Furin Cleavage site has never before been seen in nature @ErasmusMC
I dubbed the Furin Cleavage site the “smoking patent” for the now famous Wellcome Trust-Erasmus Lab-Fauci Corona Coverup Emails. Moderna applied for the very unique “smoking patent” in 2016, years before it later appeared in the Corona pandemic in 2019.
I repeated these predictions about MERS potentially being “upgraded and patented” to “MERS-2” in several subsequent books in the last two years. But we never had a potential Patient Zero for “MERS-2” before now. His name is Grant Wahl. @ErasmusMC
