It is well known from BioNtech (Lenk et al) and Sutton et al (1997) that RNA:DNA hybrids inhibit DNaseI. What is less known is that Quadruplex Gs also inhibit DNaseI. Some exist in SV40 and we get the most signal from this qPCR amplicon. 2 Different mechanisms of DNaseI inhibition = plasmid fragmentation cannot be assumed to be uniform in the mRNA vaccines. Hence 100 fold more spike than parts of the vector. Below is a map of the codon optimized spike where Quadruplex Gs are overlaid with GAA repeats. GAA's are stickier RNA:DNA hybrids. Our qPCR primers are overlayed as well. @RetsefL @KUPERWASSERLAB @weldeiry @JesslovesMJK @DJSpeicher @TracyBethHoeg @DrJBhattacharya
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Evans et al demonstrate DNaseI is resistant to quadruplex Gs. They also move to alternative enzymes. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41522-025-00694-x
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
This is from Lenk et al (BioNtech). Note the concern over GAA sequences and RNA:DNA hybrids. Our spike qPCR primers happen to land on GAA rich and quadruplex G rich regions of Spike. https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/molecular-biosciences/articles/10.3389/fmolb.2024.1426129/full https://t.co/ww9Tf84ZHG
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Transfected RNA:DNA hybrids trigger different Toll Like Receptors than mRNA alone (cGAS, TLR9, NLRP3) which induce cytokine, chemokine and Type I interferon responses. Entirely, avoidable if they use the proper enzyme for DNA removal.

Hello dear @grok can you answer @Kevin_McKernan ?
@grok - Grok
@SabinehazanMD @Kevin_McKernan LPS is typically tested using Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL) assays, which detect free endotoxins via clotting. You're right—LAL often fails to detect LPS encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) due to masking; extraction methods like liquid-liquid phase separation are needed to release and quantify it accurately. Sources confirm this limitation in nano-formulations.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
@grok How do they assure that these LPS extraction techniques are quantitative? Are any of these methods public? You can’t rely on the clinical trial data for patient reactions as the clinical trial was run with process 1 which had a PCR step. Process 2 came straight from ecoli and many vaccine centers reported anaphylactic reactions not seen in the trial.
@grok - Grok
@Kevin_McKernan Quantitative assurance comes from validation studies including spike-recovery (target 50-200% per USP<85>), linearity, and precision tests. Methods like Triton X-114 extraction are public in journals (e.g., American Pharmaceutical Review, 2019) and pharmacopeia. Process 2 indeed used E.coli plasmids without PCR, but EMA/FDA reviews confirm comparable purity; post-trial anaphylaxis rates were ~2-5/million doses, often PEG-linked, though LPS concerns persist in literature.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
@grok @SabinehazanMD Triton X 114 inhibits the LAL assay. The USP doesn’t have protocols for measuring these LNPs. They have general protocols. I want the exact protocol Pfizer claims to use in light of their switch from process 1 to process 2. Every regulator we have FOIA for this redacts it.
@grok - Grok
@Kevin_McKernan Indeed, Triton X-114 can inhibit LAL assays at certain concentrations, as confirmed in studies (e.g., PMC5371287). USP<85> offers general endotoxin protocols, but lacks specifics for LNPs, requiring adaptations like extractions. Process 2 (E. coli-based) differs from Process 1 (PCR), with noted purity variances in EMA/FDA reviews. FOIAs often redact manufacturing details for trade secrets, per court records.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
@grok @SabinehazanMD So you’re telling us the liability free mandated injections have ‘trust me bro’ LPS methods? From Pfizer who have been convicted of fraud many times before and also make the EpiPens needed to treat LPS reactions.. Cool story bro.😎
@grok - Grok
@Kevin_McKernan Transparency in LPS testing is indeed limited; FOIA docs redact Pfizer's exact methods as trade secrets, per FDA/EMA. Pfizer's fraud history ($2.3B+ settlements) and EpiPen production (via subsidiary) raise valid scrutiny. Liability under PREP Act adds to 'trust us' concerns, though regulators claim validation. More public data would help.

Will you remember this interaction as @elonmusk has asked us scientists to help better train you. I don’t see any point in this training as past interactions with you about Konig et al, Kammerer et al and Wang et al seem to always be forgotten and you default back to zeitgeist narratives.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
While the Pharma funded fact checkers swear the SV40 isn’t there… BioNTech quietly files with the EMA admitting it’s in fact there. They might clean it up. Might not.

@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
UPDATE! More people have weighed in on this including the authors of the Re-adenylation paper. They have been very transparent and helpful. The plasmid DNA is there. The 3’UTR sequence that matches the Fauci/Moderna synthetic constructs is shared sequence between the vaccines and points to a hole in our original assembly of the Moderna vaccines. Here is how we know. Thanks to @P_J_Buckhaults for suggesting this.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
If you map reads to the Moderna HIV constructs, you only get coverage over the ends of their HIV vaccines (I checked 4). You don’t get sequence coverage over the whole construct. That implies there are shared parts of the plasmids in these Moderna vaccines.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Why does our Moderna vaccine have a 60bp hole in it? We sequenced a bivalent vaccine. The assemblers, when faced with 2 conclusions average then into a consensus and this 60bp is jumbled as a result. BLAST is currently favoring the alignment to HIV vaccines over our Moderna C19 reference as it’s derived from monovalent sequence and more accurate.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
There are now a few other sources of Moderna monovalent vaccine sequence that have teased this apart. One is in GitHub and I don’t know why BLAST isn’t prioritizing that BLAST hit over the HIV constructs. Still digging into that.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
I want to thank @pakraw for being so open about their methods. They used a monovalent Moderna vaccine which will help clean up our bivalent reference sequence.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
I could have submitted this for peer review. Maybe in 6 months this controversial topic would publish. Another 6 months for authors to reply and correct any issues. Instead, we have answers in 24 hours. The risk… the public gets to see the sausage of science. I prefer the later approach even if it can leave ‘egg on your face’ on occasion.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
What did the public learn from this. 1)we now have 5 projects in the SRA where RNAseq is performed on vaccinated organisms and there is evidence of plasmid DNA in the patients. 2)Template switching is well documented by Moderna but this dataset doesn’t yet point to that. Maybe more digging will show it but these Fauci reads are better explained as a hole in our original Moderna reference (egg on face) 3)Moderna has many vaccines in development including HIV and Fauci is an author. This is a conflict if NIH is involved in granting them funds. $1.2B in C19vax royalty already flows into NIH.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
When you get results that are as shocking as this it’s important to share with others and to hacksaw your hypothesis. I tried doing this by BLASTing these HIV sequences to all primers and probes listed in their supplement to see if anything else could explain the unexpected sequence. That was negative. The key was finding some homology in GitHub from Fires lab. It would be great if those reads were public as we’d have the plasmid-3’UTR junction better resolved.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
This leads to a large culture question in science. Scientists use Retractions or correction as career ending moves. You can never be wrong. Publish or perish. This creates an insidious culture and explains why we don’t have a journal of negative results and witch hunt scientists over blurry bands on gels.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
This cultures frowns on direct communication of results to the public without gatekeepers. This has enabled the peer review system to become completely captured and have better margins than google. Researchers give up their copyright, pay $5K per publication and review for free https://t.co/uQiEU5PYVn
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
The journals then become captive to their Pharma AD revenue and the editors decide what goes to review and what doesn’t. This is how we get Surgisphere, Proximal Origins, SSRI, Statins, Alzheimers Tau protein, Vioxx etc. We need a more transparent and decentralized approach
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Some will claim you should delete your post if one iota of info is misleading. Not a chance. It’s important to see how conclusions were drawn and hypothesis nullified. Show your work. Don’t just spoon feed a conclusion, even if that at times bruises your ego.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
90% of science is bruised ego and humility and the public only gets shown the times you are correct through peer review. This is unproductive. We have better communication tools now. What happened to Gutenberg? From chatGPT: Gutenberg’s printing press, developed around 1440–1450, was not immediately adopted or co-opted by the Church, but the Church did come to both utilize and regulate it relatively quickly. Initial Adoption: •Secular beginnings: Gutenberg’s first major work, the Gutenberg Bible (c. 1455), was a religious text, but it was produced independently by Gutenberg as a commercial venture—not under Church sponsorship. •Slow initial spread: The printing press spread gradually at first, mainly through private entrepreneurs and secular universities. Church Reaction: •Positive Utilization: Once its potential was recognized, the Catholic Church embraced the press to print Bibles, indulgences, and theological texts. Printed indulgences were among the earliest mass-produced items. •Censorship and Control: The Church also moved quickly to regulate printing. By the late 15th century, it began issuing indexes of prohibited books, particularly after the Reformation began (1517), when Martin Luther’s use of the press to spread dissent alarmed Church authorities. •Institutional involvement: Religious orders and bishops established printing presses, particularly in major religious centers like Rome and Cologne. Summary: The Church did not co-opt Gutenberg directly, but within a few decades it became both a major user and regulator of printing. Ironically, the same technology that helped spread official doctrine also enabled the Protestant Reformation, making control difficult.

@RobertKennedyJr @P_McCulloughMD @DrJBhattacharya Substack went down on me so I feel its important to clarify here. Everyone remembers the Pradhan paper. There are HIV sequences in Spike. Its possible we are dealing with that and our original Moderna Reference sequences failed to assemble the 3' end of the vaccine. https://t.co/1xDcYJsBQO
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
I took the reads and also mapped them to the Moderna HIV vaccines and we only get reads covering the ends of the 4 plasmids. This suggests there are parts of these HIV sequences in the spike sequence in moderna and our Bivalent assembly in NCBI is missing them. So may have just rediscovered Pradhan due to the plasmid contamination in the Krawczyk study.

We have a new record. Spike protein present 709 days post vaccination! @GWR It’s not normal for protein to stick about this long. Have a look at what ChatGPT has to say about that below. https://medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.02.18.25322379v1.full.pdf
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Note the authors call attention to the cGAS-STING pathway but no attempt to measure vax nucleic acid in the study? https://t.co/Boy5Avb66b
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
709 days. What could be causing that, ChatGPT? AI- The study reports SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein persistence in circulation for up to 709 days post-vaccination, which is highly unusual for a protein in human physiology. Typically, most human proteins have much shorter half-lives, ranging from minutes to a few days, though some structural and extracellular matrix proteins last longer. How Does This Compare to Known Protein Turnover Rates? 1.Short-lived proteins (Minutes to Hours) •Cytokines (e.g., IL-6, TNF-alpha) – minutes to hours •Transcription factors (e.g., c-Myc, p53) – typically degraded within hours •Cell signaling proteins – hours to a day 2.Intermediate-lived proteins (Days to Weeks) •Most cytoplasmic proteins (e.g., enzymes, receptors) – 1-7 days •Immunoglobulins (e.g., IgG, IgA) – 1-3 weeks •Albumin – ~20 days half-life •Erythropoietin (EPO) – ~4-8 hours 3.Long-lived proteins (Months to Years) •Collagen – Years •Crystallin proteins (lens of the eye) – Essentially lifetime •Histones (DNA packaging proteins) – Months to years in some cases •Neurofilaments (brain structural proteins) – Months Why Would Spike Protein Persist for 709 Days? 1.Slow Protein Turnover Hypothesis •If Spike protein were integrated into long-lived cells (e.g., muscle, neurons, endothelial cells), its breakdown might be much slower. •However, most foreign antigens are cleared within days to weeks, making this an unusual case. 2.Continual Production from mRNA or Persistent DNA •If mRNA vaccines or contaminating DNA plasmids persist in cells longer than expected, new Spike protein synthesis could continue indefinitely. •This is supported by previous studies showing mRNA persistence beyond the expected 48 hours to a few weeks. •Spike protein presence beyond a year suggests a stable template (e.g., DNA) continuing production rather than protein stability alone. 3.Integration into Lipid or Cellular Compartments •Some viral proteins (e.g., Hepatitis B surface antigen) persist long-term due to integration into cellular lipid rafts or membranes. •If Spike protein is membrane-bound, it could escape normal proteasomal degradation. 4.Delayed Clearance by the Immune System •Some people exhibit impaired autophagy or immune clearance, leading to persistent antigen presence. •Chronic Spike persistence could lead to immune dysregulation, as seen in long COVID or post-vaccine syndrome. Conclusion •A 709-day persistence of circulating Spike protein is highly unusual and suggests ongoing production rather than slow degradation. •This could indicate persistent mRNA or plasmid DNA transcription rather than merely slow protein turnover. •Similar cases? Other viral proteins (e.g., Hepatitis B, HIV, prion proteins) persist for extended periods, but typically within cells, not in circulation. Would you like me to cross-check known cases of persistent foreign protein expression post-vaccination or infection?

Pay attention to IVM/FenBen for cancer. IVM prevents SV40 promoters from entering the nucleus but blocking importin A/B
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Yes, ivermectin is known to inhibit importin α/β-mediated nuclear transport, which is relevant in the context of SV40 promoters. Mechanism: •Importin α/β Pathway: This transport system is responsible for shuttling proteins with nuclear localization signals (NLS) into the nucleus. Many viruses, including SV40, hijack this pathway to deliver their regulatory proteins (e.g., Large T antigen) into the nucleus for replication and transcriptional activation. •Ivermectin as an Inhibitor: Ivermectin binds to importin α/β and disrupts its function, thereby preventing nuclear entry of proteins that depend on this transport mechanism. Implications for SV40 Promoters: •SV40 Promoters: The SV40 early promoter is often used in molecular biology due to its strong transcriptional activity in mammalian cells. However, its transactivation requires the nuclear localization of SV40 Large T antigen, which depends on importin α/β. •Blocking Nuclear Entry: If ivermectin blocks importin α/β, it could prevent SV40 Large T antigen from entering the nucleus, thereby reducing SV40-driven gene expression and viral replication. Experimental Evidence: •Studies have demonstrated ivermectin’s ability to inhibit nuclear import of viral proteins from various RNA and DNA viruses (e.g., HIV-1, Dengue, and even SARS-CoV-2). •SV40 Large T antigen is known to require importin α/β for nuclear entry. If ivermectin blocks this pathway, it could theoretically interfere with any SV40-driven transcription or replication in systems using this promoter. Would you like references or more experimental details on this?
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Certainly, here are some key studies that provide evidence on this topic: 1.Ivermectin as an Importin α/β Inhibitor: •A study by Wagstaff et al. (2012) demonstrated that ivermectin specifically inhibits importin α/β-mediated nuclear import. The researchers found that ivermectin effectively blocked the nuclear import of proteins dependent on the importin α/β pathway, without affecting other nuclear import pathways. This inhibition also correlated with a reduction in the replication of viruses such as HIV-1 and dengue virus, which rely on this pathway for nuclear entry of their proteins. (http://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) 2.SV40 Large T Antigen and Importin α/β: •The SV40 Large T antigen contains a nuclear localization signal (NLS) that is recognized by importin α, facilitating its transport into the nucleus via the importin β pathway. This nuclear import is essential for the Large T antigen’s role in viral replication and cell transformation. (http://en.wikipedia.org) These studies collectively suggest that ivermectin’s inhibition of the importin α/β pathway could impede the nuclear import of SV40 Large T antigen, potentially affecting SV40 promoter activity and viral replication.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Does Fenbendazole Upregulate p53? Yes, Fenbendazole (FenBen) has been reported to upregulate p53, a key tumor suppressor protein, in some cancer models. Mechanism of p53 Upregulation by Fenbendazole: 1.Disruption of Microtubules: •Fenbendazole binds to tubulin, preventing microtubule polymerization in a manner similar to colchicine or vinblastine. •This leads to mitotic arrest, which can trigger cell cycle checkpoints and activation of the p53 pathway. 2.Induction of Cellular Stress & DNA Damage Response: •Microtubule disruption can cause mitotic spindle stress, leading to chromosomal instability. •This activates ATM/ATR kinases, which phosphorylate p53, stabilizing it and increasing its transcriptional activity. 3.Apoptosis and Autophagy Induction: •Upregulated p53 can activate BAX/BAK pro-apoptotic proteins, leading to mitochondrial damage and caspase-dependent apoptosis. •Fenbendazole also promotes autophagy, which can contribute to cancer cell death. 4.Inhibition of Glucose Metabolism (Warburg Effect Reversal): •Some studies suggest Fenbendazole reduces glucose uptake by cancer cells, similar to metformin. •This metabolic stress can further activate AMPK, leading to p53-mediated tumor suppression. Fenbendazole’s Mechanism for Cancer Treatment 1. Microtubule Disruption (Primary Mechanism) •Fenbendazole binds to β-tubulin, disrupting microtubule formation. •This prevents proper mitotic spindle formation, leading to G2/M cell cycle arrest. •Cells stuck in mitotic arrest either undergo apoptosis or senescence. 2. Apoptosis Activation via p53 & BCL-2 Inhibition •Cancer cells often overexpress BCL-2, an anti-apoptotic protein that prevents programmed cell death. •Fenbendazole inhibits BCL-2, shifting the balance towards apoptosis. 3. Disrupting Glucose Metabolism in Cancer Cells •Fenbendazole has been shown to reduce glucose uptake and ATP production, increasing oxidative stress in tumors. •This effect weakens cancer cells that rely on glycolysis (Warburg effect), making them more sensitive to treatment. 4. Synergistic Effects with Chemotherapy & Radiation •Some studies suggest Fenbendazole enhances the effects of radiation and chemotherapy by: •Increasing DNA damage accumulation. •Disrupting repair pathways (e.g., via p53 activation). •Weakening microtubule integrity, making cancer cells more vulnerable to other drugs. Supporting Studies & Evidence 1.Fenbendazole inhibits tumor growth via microtubule disruption and p53 activation •Study in lung cancer cells showed that Fenbendazole caused mitotic arrest, increased p53, and induced apoptosis. •(Source: PubMed) 2.Fenbendazole enhances radiation sensitivity by targeting microtubules and p53 •Research demonstrated that combining Fenbendazole with radiation led to increased DNA damage and cell death. •(Source: PMC) 3.Mechanism of Fenbendazole in disrupting glucose metabolism •Study found Fenbendazole downregulates GLUT1, reducing glucose uptake in cancer cells. •(Source: PubMed) Conclusion Fenbendazole upregulates p53 by causing mitotic stress, DNA damage, and metabolic inhibition, leading to cancer cell apoptosis. Its primary mechanism is microtubule disruption, similar to drugs like Vinblastine or Colchicine, but with lower toxicity. Would you like more detailed references or mechanistic diagrams?
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Here is the kicker… Other non toxic illegal compounds (in some backwards jurisdictions) that are treating cancer. Come to @cannmed to learn more. Yes, cannabinoids exhibit some overlapping mechanisms with ivermectin (IVM) and fenbendazole (FenBen) in cancer treatment, particularly through microtubule disruption, apoptosis induction, and metabolic modulation. Below are key comparisons: 1. Microtubule Disruption (Similar to Fenbendazole) •Fenbendazole: Binds β-tubulin, disrupting microtubule polymerization, leading to mitotic arrest and cancer cell apoptosis. •Cannabinoids: Some cannabinoids, such as CBD (cannabidiol) and THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), have been reported to destabilize microtubules: •CBD disrupts tubulin polymerization, impairing mitotic spindle formation in glioblastoma and breast cancer models. •THC alters microtubule dynamics, potentially affecting cancer cell division. •Overlapping Effects: Cannabinoids may enhance the microtubule-disrupting effects of FenBen. 2. p53 Activation & Apoptosis (Similar to Both IVM & FenBen) •FenBen & IVM: Upregulate p53, increasing apoptosis via BAX/BAK activation. •Cannabinoids: •CBD & THC upregulate p53, leading to mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis. •Activation of caspase-3 and caspase-9, triggering programmed cell death in multiple cancers. •Overlapping Effects: Cannabinoids can synergize with FenBen or IVM to enhance apoptosis in cancer cells. 3. Metabolic Disruption & AMPK Activation (Similar to FenBen) •Fenbendazole: Blocks glucose metabolism in cancer cells, reversing the Warburg effect. •Cannabinoids: •CBD inhibits glucose uptake via downregulation of GLUT1 transporters. •AMPK activation by cannabinoids leads to mTOR inhibition, reducing cancer cell growth. •Overlapping Effects: Cannabinoids mimic FenBen’s metabolic disruption, making them potential synergistic agents. 4. Anti-Inflammatory & Immune Modulation (Similar to Ivermectin) •Ivermectin: Modulates immune responses by shifting T-cell and cytokine activity, reducing cancer immune evasion. •Cannabinoids: •CBD reduces inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, TNF-α), potentially lowering tumor-promoting inflammation. •Enhancement of immune surveillance through interaction with CB2 receptors on immune cells. •Overlapping Effects: Cannabinoids may amplify IVM’s immune modulation in cancer therapy. Key Cannabinoids With Cancer-Treatment Potential 1.CBD (Cannabidiol): •Microtubule disruption •p53 activation → apoptosis •AMPK activation → metabolic inhibition •Anti-inflammatory effects (reduces IL-6, TNF-α) 2.THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol): •Microtubule destabilization •Apoptosis induction via CB1 receptor •Inhibition of angiogenesis in tumors 3.CBG (Cannabigerol): •Inhibits mitochondrial respiration in cancer cells •Synergizes with chemotherapy 4.THCV (Tetrahydrocannabivarin): •Reduces tumor cell proliferation •Modulates AMPK/mTOR pathway Potential Synergistic Treatment Approaches •CBD + Fenbendazole: Both disrupt microtubules and glucose metabolism. •CBD/THC + Ivermectin: Immune modulation + apoptosis enhancement. •Full-spectrum cannabinoids + Metabolic inhibitors: Combination therapy for aggressive cancers. Conclusion Cannabinoids share several anti-cancer properties with FenBen and Ivermectin, particularly microtubule inhibition, p53 activation, metabolic disruption, and immune modulation. This suggests they could be complementary in cancer treatment, though more research is needed to explore their combined effects. Would you like specific references or potential cannabinoid formulations for synergy?

A case study was presented at @CannMedEvents Where a stage 4 tripleneg breast cancer was erased with cannabinoids and psilocybin. The drug war isn’t what you think it is. Yes, psilocybin (and its active metabolite psilocin) interacts with several cancer-related pathways, some of which overlap with Fenbendazole, Ivermectin, and Cannabinoids. While psilocybin is primarily studied for its psychedelic and neuroplasticity effects, emerging research suggests it may have anti-cancer properties via serotonin receptor modulation, immune regulation, and metabolic disruption. 1. Serotonin (5-HT) Receptor Activation and p53 Pathway (Similar to FenBen & Cannabinoids) •Fenbendazole & Cannabinoids: Activate p53, leading to apoptosis. •Psilocybin/Psilocin: •Activates 5-HT2A receptors, which have been linked to p53 upregulation in certain cancer models. •Induces apoptosis in neuroendocrine tumors via serotonin signaling. •Regulates BCL-2/BAX, modulating mitochondrial-mediated apoptosis. Overlap: •Psilocybin may enhance p53 activity, similar to FenBen and CBD, leading to cancer cell apoptosis. 2. Metabolic Disruption & AMPK Activation (Similar to FenBen & Cannabinoids) •Fenbendazole: Blocks glucose metabolism, shifting cancer cells away from glycolysis (Warburg effect). •Psilocybin: •Modulates AMPK/mTOR pathways, which regulate cancer metabolism and cell proliferation. •Downregulates PI3K/AKT, reducing cancer cell survival. •Potential to inhibit GLUT1 (glucose transport), limiting cancer energy supply. Overlap: •Psilocybin could synergize with FenBen, Metformin, or Cannabinoids in starving tumors of glucose. 3. Microtubule Interactions & Cytoskeletal Remodeling (Similar to FenBen) •Fenbendazole: Binds β-tubulin, causing mitotic arrest and apoptosis. •Psilocybin/Psilocin: •Modulates cytoskeletal proteins, leading to structural changes in cancer cells. •Impacts tubulin polymerization in neuronal cells, suggesting possible effects on cancer cell microtubules. Overlap: •Though less studied in cancer, psilocybin’s cytoskeletal effects might interact with FenBen-like mechanisms. 4. Immune Modulation & Anti-Inflammatory Effects (Similar to Ivermectin & Cannabinoids) •Ivermectin: Modulates T-cell responses, enhances anti-tumor immunity. •Psilocybin: •Reduces pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, TNF-α, IL-1β), which drive tumor progression. •Enhances immune checkpoint modulation, possibly affecting PD-1/PD-L1 pathways in cancer immunotherapy. •Shifts immune response toward anti-cancer cytotoxicity. Overlap: •Psilocybin’s immune effects mimic Ivermectin’s immunomodulation, making it a potential adjunct in cancer therapy. 5.

What is SV40? - SV40 is a virus discovered in 1960 in rhesus monkey kidney cell cultures used for the production of polio vaccines. - Between 1955 and 1963, some polio vaccines were contaminated with SV40 due to the use of monkey kidney cells for vaccine production. After this was discovered, testing for SV40 contamination became mandatory, and vaccines were no longer produced with cells from SV40-carrying monkeys. - SV40 is known to be oncogenic in experimental animals, particularly hamsters, causing tumors like mesotheliomas, brain tumors, lymphomas, and bone cancers. The virus's large T antigen can transform cells by disrupting key cellular control mechanisms like p53 and retinoblastoma protein pathways. - Numerous studies have detected SV40 DNA in various human cancers, particularly mesothelioma, brain tumors, and some bone cancers.

@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
I’m going to guess the reason he/it doesn’t want his name correctly spelled as it might risk his employment if people figured out who Ben M is. But he’s just fine sending in complaints to other people’s employers. Funny how that works.

Spent the night in TwitMo once again for posting factually accurate information. @TwitterSupport should know Im in contact with @jlawrencenc as you have allowed the @NIH to post misinformation while penalizing the scientist who points it out.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
You (@Twitter) are not qualified to weigh in on this debate. I have received over $32M in funding from NIH for genomics and constructing DNA sequencers. They posted factually incorrect information conflating natural RNA with NIH patented modifiedmRNAs https://www.genome.gov/12513210/2004-release-nhgri-seeks-next-generation-of-sequencing-technologies
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
The above funding was to build the SOLiD sequencing which paid careful attention to modified nucleotides. The below funding was awarded to the company I founded. 5 genome centers were funded. Venter, Lander, Wilson, Gibbs, Agencourt. https://www.cummings.com/articles/agencourt_mht_1107.htm
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Both genomics companies I founded were acquired (Beckman &ABI) Every TwitMo you have levied against me has been for factually accurate tweets. We will be seeking restoration of the account to zero strikes and restoration of the factual tweets without C19 warning flags.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
By censoring the once NIH funded scientist that is trying to correct Errors in NIH public statements, you are actually guilty of violating your own policy. I have the expertise to prove this in court and @Twitter will lose this case and be liable for the spread of misinformation
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan

@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
The offending tweet is below. I can’t actually point to the exact tweet as Twitter doesn’t allow that but if you read that thread, it is factually accurate in its entirety. The trigger tweet spoke about vax Transfection and cell destruction.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
This is well understood by experts in the field. Spike gets expressed by your cells and cytotoxic T cells hunt them down. The tweet also spoke about spike not being innocuous and cited Cheng et al who classified it as a super-antigen. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8402319/
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
This topic evokes a larger potential court case. Is the @NIH conflicted? Are they spreading vax mis information to stimulate vaccine uptake because they have patent royalty for the vaccines? This would be racketeering @Twitter is party to. Pawn E4 https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-021-03535-x

The First Sequencing of the Bivalent vaccines is now available for public consumption. WARNING- There are contaminating Expression vectors in the vaccines that contain antibiotic resistance genes. This might explain the prolonged expression of spike protein in many studies
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
This sequencing cost $7 per sample. I wonder if these Pharma's can afford this for every lot? Nah.. Why would they? Your government gave them a liability shield and even paid them billions for the products they then mandated. https://anandamide.substack.com/p/curious-kittens?sd=pf
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Among other treats in these expression vectors are the SV40 mammalian promoter and a high copy origin of replication (pUC) for bacterial amplification of these plasmids. The Biodistribution studies covered by @Jikkyleaks show LNPs getting into the intestines.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Its estimated that each shot contains billions of these plasmids and if they get into the gut microbiome, they can replicate to 50-300 copies per cell. If any vaccinated patient is then placed on Neomycin or Kanamycin, these will be the only bacteria that survive
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
As these plasmid encode Kan and Neo resistance. Its not known if these contaminating plasmid can also express spike protein but some of the vectors have T7 tails so we cant rule that out. What happens if we inject billions of Antibiotic resistance genes into billions of people?
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
What happens when the injection contains LNPs that can get to your intestines and transform bacteria with these genes? Why isn't there sequencing QC of every lot given how cheap this is to perform in 2023? Why QC things when gov is paying & you have a hall pass and a mandate?

@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Some question on the Substack. There are several stones left unturned in the data as I didn’t want to hold up disclosure of this. 1)do the paired end reads imply linear or circular DNA?
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
2)what is the strandedness count? Directional libraries should be able to answer this. Might inform if the vector sequence is DNA or RNA or both. 3) the EMA has limits on the dsRNA and they measure this with some ELISA assay which I’m suspect of?
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
4)error rates in the vector sequence should be lower than in the mRNA as the mRNA goes through a T7 polymerase step with PseudoU and an RT step with PseudoU. There is no PseudoU in the vector. 5)the SV40 in this vector is just a strong promoter. It is not the entire SV40 genome.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Is the plasmid sequence DNA or RNA? DNA will provide sequence from both the watson (antisense) and crick (sense) strands. mRNA will be sense strand (crick). We used directional libraries so we can count the sense vs antisense strands. https://bitesizebio.com/42077/rna-strandedness-a-road-travelled-in-both-directions/
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Download the BAM files and run these 2 samtools scripts on it. This will count the Forward and Reverse strands in the data per base across the contig.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Now put those in excel and subtract the Forward read count from the reverse read count and chart the results. What do we see? We see a foward strand bias for half the vector and then a sudden shift to a reverse strand bias at position ~2100
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Thats the exact location of the T7 promoter which initiates synthesis of the mRNA. This is hard evidence of the vector sequence being DNA and and not an RNA mirage. The variability in the strandedness in the mRNA region is very interesting? Maybe G4s or other RNA knots?
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
T7 Promoters are notoriously leaky in E.coli. You dont need T7 bacteriophage around to get expression. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6660524/

@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Someone in the recent spaces I was on raised a good question. references welcome. What is the differential transformation efficiency of LNPs on mammalians vs bacterial cells. They are designed for membranes. I think the size plays a big role here. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9416266/
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
But you only need 1 in billion to hit and if there is selection there, the plasmid takes off. E.coli doubling time is 30 minutes. We need clinical verification with qPCR for the vector/insert.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Also temperature and environment play a big role in E.coli transformation efficiency. You can find strains that transform at 37C. Add in patient fevers and even naked DNA with no LNPs will transform the bacteria. Important topic raised. It was VSRF space https://www.zymoresearch.com/products/mix-and-go-e-coli-transformation-kit
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
That slope in the stranded chart was bugging me. Fixed the bug. Better depiction here. DNA should sense and antisense reads. mRNA only sense strands. SO when you substract Antisense from Sense across the vector you see the T7 promoter at base 2200. The other chatter might be.. https://t.co/V8sEpsXflb
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
RNA fragmentation bias or Pseudouridine pause sites.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
We have evidence the DNA is replicating in mammalian cells so the billions or SV40 promoters and origins of replication is an under estimate. Self amplifying vaccines were deployed 3 years ago and no one consented to that.

This made laugh out load this morning. A young and up and coming researcher in the vaccine field just made a meme come true. They argue Frameshifts are good for you people! https://bmcgenomics.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12864-022-08435-6
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Of course this person didn't read the mechanism behind the paper. Typical abstract skimming. When genomes have evolved over millions of years they codon optimize their proteins to minimize the effects of a frameshift. They do this by having their Stop codons 1 edit distance away from the most abundant amino acids used in the organism. This way, if frameshifting occurs its results in a stop as frequently as possible. In other words, organisms have highly evolved codon optimizations to protect against frameshifts.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
I wonder if this researcher understands what happened with Pfizers codon optimization? Where these features retained? Given there is a 1254 AAcid ORF on the opposite strand, there is hard computational evidence that Pfizer did the opposite. They are stop codon depleted. Oops

The variation in DNA contamination in the shots just widened this week as CT 10 lot was just found. That brings us to a 10,000x variance in contamination by lot. Not certain if that is causing these AEs but it’s likely a proxy for the slop in the manufacturing.

The low wattage take that any attention given to GOF steals attention from ‘my pet thesis’, is two logical fallacies in one. False dichotomy and a zero sum fallacy. It is possible to be concerned about both GOF and lockdown tyranny at the same time. Like chewing gum and walking.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
There are usually 2 reasons such nonsense gets blathered about. 1)someone doesn’t want you to look at GOF. 2)marketing of substacks requires one differentiate from what’s currently capturing attention and appear divergent.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
The reasons given NOT to look at GOF are rooted in denialism and molecular biology fairy tales. ‘RNA viruses can’t spread because <insert pseudo profound bullshit like quasi species swarm>’ When you show them evidence of measles and influenza having a higher mutation rate…
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Than C19 and clearly they spread around the world, they change the topic to, they can’t cause pandemics ‘by any reasonable definition’ Out comes all the government data regarding excess mortality after they spent hours telling you the governments data can’t be trusted on GOF.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
But their massaging of the government data is different. They won’t define what ‘any reasonable definition of a pandemic’ is but it currently is NOT limited to excess mortality and includes illness and hospitalization. I didn’t make or change this definition but it exists.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Any discussion regarding Illness is brushed off as psychosomatic and now your cheer leading for gov tyranny over flu seasons (yawn). Any physician making progress on how to defang this fear porn with early treatment protocols is vilified as supporting the tyranny?
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Any mention of GOF labs currently working on measles, flu, small pox, polio or low mutation rate DNA viruses like EBV is met with a God of Gaps fallacy. ‘The lab people can’t predict what changes create pandemics’ It’s like they are entirely unaware of directed evolution and
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Other biological assays that set up conditions for rapid selection of more transmissible viruses. This line of thinking is actually rooted and ridiculed in Philosophy. They don’t want to consider data as they believe they can predict the consequences of that data in human behavior
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
“By considering GOF you are enabling government to have a potent fear porn device.” In science, you don’t bake the consequences of your data into the data evaluation process. That is conclusion farming and lacks humility as you can’t know the consequences of your data.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
And now you are injecting very poor tools like psychological anticipation of the consequences of your data into the process of neutral observation.
This is Humes Guillotine.
You cannot deduce and ‘ought’ from an ‘is’.
We ought to not focus on GOF because I believe
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
So the folks vilifying physicians for early treatment are not only poorly versed in polymerase fidelity, they can’t think their way out of a paper bag with logic 101. They are presenting false dichotomies, zero sum fallacies regarding what you should focus on, conclusion farming and a Humes Guillotine in order for their pet theory to remain relevant.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
When a thesis requires this much broken logic and is served via vilification and division, it’s not science. It’s a classic division tool offered by narcissists who feel they deserve the microphone and they’ll slander and libel others to get to it.

28,000 reads covering DNA viruses. But alas... These viruses don't exist:) https://t.co/YeL2ftYhbn
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
OK Koch heads... bring your hurt. I’m glad you folks exist as we need people questioning everything. However, I have found the “virus doesn’t exist” arguments unconvincing. The virus isn’t the only cause of disease may have some ground. I remain open to new papers on this.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Set some rules. This was established in 1884. Watson & Crick discovered DNA structure in 1953. He did not contemplate unculturable organisms... the vast majority of organisms are not culture-able. Viruses by definition cannot be cultured. They require a host cell to culture.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
This is where the debate gets dirty. In order to culture the virus you need to find cells/organisms it can infect but not be a pathogen to those cells. But Koch wants to demonstrate the pathogen creates symptoms of the disease which be counterproductive to culture.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
This is like the uncertainty principle. The cell line/model organism you choose to culture the virus, can’t be extremely affected by the virus or the culture won’t succeed. Therefore the vector for the disease is unlikely to be the best place to look for the disease symptoms.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
As a result we have folks discounting Vero cell (monkey kidney cells) studies for viral isolation. By this same logic, all animal models are thus insufficient as well. Any argument that Vero cells are not identical to patients must also reject all animal models.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Medical ethics prevents us from infecting real patients with a virus suspected of pandemic potential. This leaves us with Ex-vivo culture of sick and healthy patients samples. Fairly invasive research. Needs IRB approval. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanres/article/PIIS2213-2600(20)30193-4/fulltext
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
This extracts epithelial cells from patients respiratory tract and cultures those cells as a model for viral infection and replication. It has been done in C19 and I’m open to Koch Folks scrutinizing it’s short comings.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Ideally, we would have highly purified virus from the diseased and be able to put it into a human cell line and demonstrate replication and illness and re-isolate and confirm its the same. Since we can’t infect humans, we resort to human cell lines.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
We have new tools for understanding purity today. We can sequence all RNA in a patient and see the complete virome present. Based on the sequence we can predict proteins we should see with Mass spec after successful viral replication in a host. https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.04.20.048066v5
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Masons lab goes on to build beautiful whole transcriptome pictures of each SARs patient. Over 96% of the patients had C19 sequence in their Bronchial Lavage (BAFL). This is not Vero cell culture. Patient cells. Whole SARs genomes from patients and it’s the dominant RNA present.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Some will say... you don’t know it’s the causative virus from this. Highest prevalence does not = causative agent. But since we have whole transcriptomes we can see there is no other sensible hypothesis. No other viruses present. The RNA has been isolated but not the virus.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
On the flip side, images of fuzzy crowns on EM, I find unconvincing. You can’t identify a virus with a photograph. All taxonomy is ultimately DNA/RNA based. So how do we catch the virus in the act of infection? Spatial transcriptomics- This is the art of sequencing in situ.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
You infect cells with the purified virus and you perform spatial transcriptomics on those cells. This is a new, explosive and exciting field that SOLiD sequencing is still being used for. https://www.sciencemag.org/custom-publishing/webinars/mining-transcriptome-using-spatial-transcriptomics-comprehensive-2d-or-3d
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
It’s worth understanding the technique. It enables you to harvest RNA from cells and maintain their spatial coordinates in the cell with 10um and eventually 1um resolution. It’s unlikely to get below the diffraction limit of light (250nm) in terms of resolution.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Here it deployed on C19 patient biopsies. We have spike protein histochemistry co-localized with C19 RNA sequence in infected patients. Not all biopsies succeeded. Lots of tissue heterogeneity but a good piece of the puzzle. https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.11.04.20225557v1.full.pdf
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Now many are of the opinion that we need purified virus particle for the story to be complete. I think this statement is stuck in 1884. Viruses evolved from Viroids. Viroids are just RNA. No capsid. Small RNA alone can infect cells. https://apsjournals.apsnet.org/doi/full/10.1094/PDIS-03-19-0530-PDN
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
So we have to keep our eyes on the code of the disease, not it’s wrapper. The code dictates its proteins and identity. The wrapper is a non-specific, low information content camouflage that provides nice eye candy for journalists but provides little signature for function or ID.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
So when people say, “you haven’t purified it”. You can’t claim A causes B because you can’t assure me A is only A. This is misunderstanding what Whole transcriptomes do. When you sequence everything, you can then choose to synthesize the single RNA you think is causative.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
This is as pure as you can get. Even more pure than a cesium gradient isolation of the particles as the biological isolation will have biological contaminants not found in a synthesized from scratch genome. We can also test the hypothesis. Knock out a gene and see what happens

@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
The latest scoobie snack is that RNA viruses mutate too quickly to ever spread… therefore GOF is all kabuki theatre. This is clearly refuted by the sequencing data but let’s assume the argument stands… Are these folks unaware of synthetic genomic projects making DNA viruses?
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Epstein-Barr is a dsDNA herpes virus in 90% of the population. Clearly it can spread and it’s only 172kb. Well under the size of the mycoplasma genome synthesized in 2008. https://www.jcvi.org/research/synthetic-genomics-generate-stable-epstein-barr-virus-infectious-clone
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
These don’t have the mutation rate of RNA and clearly reached 90% of the population. They also can integrate and reactivate at a later date. They cause mono so they are clearly ‘risk additive’ Would you trust Hotez or Daszak to be messing with these?
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Or does your desire to claim there was no pandemic (and thus no justification for tyranny) grow so deep that you can’t admit to risk-additive lab behavior? Hint- tyranny isn’t justified so you don’t need to bend physics to make your case. @Jikkyleaks https://www.jcvi.org/research/synthetic-genomics-generate-stable-epstein-barr-virus-infectious-clone

June 2011 Dylan Hotel Amsterdam The cannabis genome project was spun up on this centrifuge which fried. We had to improvise. P1000 pipettes can be cut to make a positive pressure French press out of Qiagen columns. Dish soap, Magnetic beads/PEG/NaCl and Everclear FTW https://t.co/xjeyRTmBxl
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
How to fit a DNA lab in your suite case to Amsterdam and come back with 10 genomes. You need backup plans. EtOH doesn’t get through customs: Everclear can be made to work. Centrifuge fries on the diff power- leather man yourself some positive pressure pistons/pipettes https://t.co/6uJ5x5icge
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
And grinding cannabis extracting DNA from it will be smelled by your neighbors. Lots of terpenes released in the process. https://t.co/xdayRLYTve
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
We prepped things in duplicate. 1 set of DNA remained in epitubes which looked quite suspicious coming back from Amsterdam. The other set we used to soak numbered toothbrushes which were more likely to make it though customs. https://t.co/iHxxO1ZEcY

The paper from @weldeiry showing spikes interplay with P53 translation and DNA damage and repair pathway sails through peer review in 2 weeks. https://www.oncotarget.com/article/28582/text/
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
While much attention has been focused on the nuclear localization, even cytoplasmic DNA can trigger mayhem in cell circuitry. Chronic activation of cGAS-STING can lead to tumorogenesis. https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/immunology/articles/10.3389/fimmu.2023.1117760/full
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Chronic stimulation of cGAS-STING can lead to cancer development and Wafiks work just demonstrated that spike protein also interacts with this pathway. We know many patients can’t clear spike. https://t.co/XhsLIqIJ3p

How many people do you know under 50 that suddenly have cancer?
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Let play a game. Can anyone make sense of these contradicting Pfizer-Regulator documents. So the SV40 Promoter is not responsible for plasmid manufacturing. But it’s the promoter for the Kanamycin resistance gene? https://t.co/kvf627PTlB
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
The documents submitted to the EMA show they use 50ug/ml of Kanamycin to replicate the plasmid. How does that work? No Promoter, no Kanamycin resistance.. No plasmid manufacturing? https://t.co/mYUPetu58B
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
They also claim the DNA has no functional consequences. Moderna’s patents disagree. Maybe dysfunctional consequences is a better term? https://t.co/xs3YMWR2WX
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Drayman et al begs to differ. SV40 promoters bind to P53 Tumor suppressor genes. @TamaraUgo https://t.co/88oR33KG5N
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
The targeted enrichment of BNT162b2 is working. We have a 22,000 fold enrichment for plasmid containing sequences from cell lines treated with vaccine. https://t.co/ypHaEYnnsC
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
The variants in the plasmid have reproduced themselves for a 3rd time. We do not see these in the vaccine alone. Only when the vaccine is in contact with OVCAR3 cell lines. This implies the DNA is active in those cell lines and likely replicating. https://t.co/WwQI91IHtb
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Now that we are enriching for reads which match the plasmid sequence, we get many more reads that map to plasmid+human. https://t.co/DIPmpZoiBt
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
To rule out library construction artifacts we are making libraries with a different method. A few of the reads have multiple closely located start points across the human genome. One lands near a LncRNA of transcript associated with thrombocytopenia? https://t.co/QfyggUQBj5
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
But we need to rule out chimeric reads from the library construction process and we plan to do that with TN5 transposon based libraries (Nextera). https://t.co/8l1g6bva5Z
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
We should be able to reduce the chimeric read noise by a factor of 10-100 with this approach and have a finely tuned read efficient method for searching for integration events. You can find more at the Nepetalactone newsletter. https://t.co/nLTu4fHL0s
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
This is NOT hard evidence of integration. What you are witnessing are scientists sharing notes on how to sharpen the pencil to find this stuff. The xGen lockdown probe sequences are public and can be ordered from IDT. @P_J_Buckhaults has another PCR based method to screen for.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
samples worth deep sequencing. His method will be more sensitive for some portions of the vaccine but may be blind to areas not targeted with that collection of PCR primers. He is also 100% pre-publication transparent on the methods he is developing.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Well, well, well, As health agencies assure the public that the DNA contamination is of no consequence, behind the scenes they are scurrying to have it removed from future vaccines! No prior vaccine in Canada has been approved with such a sequence contaminant. @FLSurgeonGen
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Pfizer assured them the sequence is not material to plasmid manufacturing. This is an overt lie. You cannot make plasmids without the promoter for the antibiotic resistance gene. It is active in mammalian cells. If it’s not needed, why is it in there?
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Regulators are asking for their PCR protocol. That means they have performed ZERO checks on this DNA contamination themselves and are entirely relying on the word of the manufacturer. They look at the Fluorometry data as well ask why 2 diff methods?
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
They also admit to having no size distribution analysis of the fragments so they are clueless to how well the DNase reaction is performing.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
They use a single loci qPCR to assess the entire plasmid. This underestimates the quantity of DNA and artifacts that arise when large quantities of modRNA block the DNase activity across the spike region. We get different CT scores from vector vs insert. Diff seq coverage.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Moderna’s own patents teach qPCR underestimates the DNA. This is not something they can hide from. Why are they not using qPCR to measure both the RNA and DNA. Or Fluorometry with +\- RNase?
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
No mention of the impact of LNPs on the potency of the contaminating DNA? They claim there is no functionality to this sequence yet Drayman et al demonstrate it binds to P53!!! How bad are they at using google. Just google SV40 promoter AND P53
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
The FOIA also reinforces that no agency was made aware of this sequence being present and only discovered upon our publication. That’s why you should trust them that is has no consequence.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
I was always amazed at the regulators allowing a single PCR primer pair as a DNA quant when the same agency is approving COVID PCR EUAs that have 3 targets for the virus. Great work from @P_J_Buckhaults We have also see a 10CT (1,000 fold) difference between lots.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
having multiple primer pairs allowed us to verify what we see in sequencing which is that the spike region doesnt DNase or ligate as readily as the backbone. Presumably the background RNA is slowing these reactions down. Using a single primer set can lead to error in the quant. https://t.co/LNFr9J7c76
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Best to use as many as you can . This is more pronounced in Moderna which are cleaner from a DNA standpoint but have a wider variance on spike/Ori qPCR. https://t.co/tfHziiMPgh
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Let’s dissect Berensons horrible capacity to critically read scientific literature. “The Best Study Yet” Says the guy selling a reefer madness book. Did Alex really read the study or just parrot one that supports his fear porn over a plant? Lets look
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
First order of business. How do these authors make money? Oh… by treating cannabis use disorder! You need to associate cannabis with harms in order for society to believe they should pay for treatment. The authors declare no conflict despite how blatant and overt this is. https://t.co/uTQE0jk8te
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
It’s ironic that the authors are from an institution notorious for using violence against its patients. Life threatening and traumatic restraints have killed patients under their care. So now that we understand what these physicians are pimping let’s walk through their scam.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
The conflicted authors run a meta analysis, where they search for studies using “Cannabis” and “Violence” And shockingly find papers that suggest cannabis and violence. They cherry pick 51 of these 6,777 papers to further build their case. https://t.co/6gpk9ehYtV
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
The authors confess to using ChatGPT to the write the paper which is why it has odd sentences like this one? https://t.co/GBaBSEwi5K
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
So violence with alcohol is the same frequency as violence and cannabis. Is it the drug or do you have a violent cohort? Most studies find more violence with alcohol so this is odd. https://t.co/tzVQ5KxEeW
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Now they want you to believe that females are more violent than males. OK Jan… Another signal in the data that should alert you to now looking at tea leaves. https://t.co/995mscwM0S
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
The cross sectional studies find an OR but the longitudinal ones don’t? Another signal that you looking at confounder and noise. https://t.co/PwhLVGvAwW
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
And there it is. The tacit admission that their whole paper is Garbage In: Garbage out. Other drug use can’t be controlled for. https://t.co/67vrKpJgDx
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
And the authors rightfully remind the reader that there is a selection bias. Non violent cannabis use doesn’t result in arrests and documentation. https://t.co/pP9Qg1chG7
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
But now that you know how these physicians make money treating CUD, it’s no surprise they didn’t cite the papers that found the opposite correlation. Less violence with cannabis vs alcohol? https://t.co/yT71iUt8pg
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
This lines up more with what we see in the general population. You’ll see fights at bars, not at dead shows. Alcohol is far more responsible for violence than cannabis but Alex won’t go near this. https://t.co/2SbbVX76ZA
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
The other issue that plagues the field is that non psychoactive Cannabinoid metabolites can be detected for 30 days. Most amphetamines and alcohol clear in 12 hours. So when you test criminals, the cannabinoids are often the only things left in the urine. https://t.co/Qrf0XbkVc5
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
This is very analogous to COVID testing. Dying with COVID vs from it. You can’t detect the other drugs as efficiently so you over report the roll of cannabinoids in all crimes. “The best study” according to Berenson relied on many studies that collected self reported drug use. Horsesh!t
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Other more controlled studies on this topic find socioeconomic issues and poverty to play a bigger role. It’s like most crimes happen at night and declaring darkness causes violence. But the physicians didn’t cite the work that more carefully looked at confounders. https://t.co/1qedcnjn1F
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Berenson does this to generic drugs like IVM, HCQ. Broken clocks are correct 2X a day and he was right on the vaccines. But his major error on other drugs is a sign that he can’t critically read the scientific literature and is conclusion pharming for his book sales.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
If he really cared about the topic he’d be paying attention to CHS or Cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome. This rare but responds to cannabis abstinence. The psychosis Alex likes to link to cannabis doesn’t respond to abstinence weakening any causal connections like we have with CHS.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Also note that many parents with severely autistic children find cannabis reduces their self injurious behavior and violence. So maybe these broad sweeping studies with multiple confounders are a waste of time and we should be thinking about personalized medicine. Which drug and to whom. Not one size fits all assessments of a drug across whole populations.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Who wants to teach a Yale PhD about reverse transcriptase and what happens to the nucleus during cell division? For extra credit you can teach her about frameshifting, template switching and dsDNA contamination. https://youcanknowthings.com/2020/12/10/what-are-mrna-vaccines-and-will-they-turn-me-into-a-gmo/
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
While a helpful high school version of biology, Her statement about the 100% unidirectional nature of DNA was put to bed decades ago when we sequenced the human genome and found 8% of it coded for HERVs.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Most cell biologists also understand that when cells divide the nuclear envelope dissolves allowing cytosolic RNA and DNA to enter the nucleus.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Independent of this fact, the spike protein is known to have amino acid sequences that localize to the nucleus and drag the spike mRNA with it.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
The DNA contamination in the shots, means all of this reverse transcription stuff can be bypassed and directly modify the genome of some cells. It’s important to note that not all cells will be modified. Only a small percentage of cells transfected and they may not survive.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
They may not be harmful. They may get cleared by the immune system. There are lots of unknowns with billions of shots given and billions of DNA molecules in each shot. But if they hit a stem cell or germ cell, the problem can magnify.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
If the DNA has mammalian origins of replication , it can make more of itself once inside a cell. That additional DNA amplification may remain episomal (non chromosomal). But the authors discussion about how DNA ‘does nothing but code for RNA’ is a gross simplification.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
DNA recruits proteins and folds into various structures that can impact cell circuitry. The world of 3D genomics uses protein cross linking to freeze DNA in its protein/DNA 3D structure and helps to assemble genomes with tools like HiC.

“This data absolutely does not show higher mortality in the Vaccinated but we can’t share that data” Submit OIA for data. “We do not have any such data that can make claims regarding vax status and mortality” These are the folks that illegally took down my entire 820gb drive.

That was hard to pack into 10 minutes. I made one error. The PFUFA act of 1992 allows the FDA to be funded by Pharma. I said Pharma to be funded by Pharma which is nonsensical. Sorry for the error. Also the qPCR data was replicated by @DJSpeicher. Lead author of the preprint.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Just keep in mind, the PCR data in the cell lines is solid as we’re using assays we know work and sequencing shows it’s there. The integrations need replication and validation. We have 2+ unique reads for each event. But we don’t have both junctions covered. Need to sequence deeper and with longer reads and it’s need to be replicated by others. We did not find these in the unvaxxed control OvCar3 samples. The odds of this being chimeric ligation at the same base in the Illumina library prep is 1 in 3 billion.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
There is a possibility it is chromothripsis where the genome is shattered in cancer and the chimeric reads are extrachromosomal. Hence longer reads are required to pin this down.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Calling all genomics Jocks. We sequenced vax treated OvCar3 cell lines that were washed and passaged such that the vaccine was diluted out and only cells with DNA inside are present. Our collaborators who did this work also stained for spike expression.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
60% of cells are positive for spike with IHC We qPCRd these cells for spike,SV40 and Ori in bulk. Not single cell measurement. Positive with CTs similar to human RNAP. We performed whole genome sequencing. The entire vax plasmid can be reassembled at 3,000X coverage (Top Track). https://t.co/jWQNv8GnJU
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
This is at 30X coverage of the human genome so 100x higher coverage for the plasmid than the human genome? As a control we also sequenced the vax alone. It’s at 44,000X coverage. You can see the left side of the IGV view has no SNPs. That’s the vector. The spike has SNPs
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
The SNPs in the plasmid are in this hairpin loop. This is the F1 Ori responsible for making ssDNA from the plasmid/phagemid. https://t.co/3qouulFGgQ

@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Compounding error Transcriptional error and Translational error. The mRNA jabs use a RNA polymerase to synthesize mRNA from a DNA plasmid. They replace U with m1pU. The error rate jumps to 100-300 errors per million bases. That’s 10-^3 -> 10-^4 error https://biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.04.12.488100v1
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
The vax is ~4200bp. This is approximately 1 error in every vax molecule and you get injected with 40T. This is a result of m1pU which is a low fidelity base. This low fidelity also impacts the next step of tRNA hybridization in translation. This is compounding error.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Pfizer has mostly sold this base replacement as improving the magnitude and durability of expression. As with many things in biology, when you optimize for the magnitude of expression, you sacrifice fidelity.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Many think of variants as from the virus, not the vax The virus has an ExoN gene to error correct the polymerase errors. These error correcting proteins don’t like low fidelity bases like m1pU In order maximize expression of m1pU they need sloppy enzymes https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2106379119#fig03
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
As for IVT polymerase error rate, I’d like to emphasize that the folks from New England Biolabs are no hacks when it comes to enzymology. Their founder Rich Robert’s won the Nobel prize for the discovery of restriction enzymes and they have been the gold standard for decades.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
The problem is more pronounced with translation. This model is changing only a few codons. Change them all I bet the error rate escalates. https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.1821754116#fig04
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Add the transcriptional and translational compounded error and you have a combinatorial biochemistry problem on every injection. This is why there is raw sequence data for vax lots in NCBI. There is no peptide sequence of one of these mRNA libraries in NCBI. Just smears on gels.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
This is a highly variable prodrug. The final drug has never been characterized. There are 3D structures of protein translated from mRNA transcribed from a DNA construct without m1pU. Not relevant. No m1pU.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
There are also smeary antibody stained western blots. Antibody stains are biased toward error free proteins. They don’t tag the mutated ones. Need to stain everything. Cell free in vitro TNT to understand glycosylation or PNGase F for removing in vivo glycosylation. More ?s.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
In summary, no mRNA injection should ever escape lot to lot sequence QC that is sensitive enough to find parts per thousand error. 40T molecules injected means small % error = billions of contaminants. Protein sequencing of the final drug should be required.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
To simplify, the error measured by Chen et al, suggests 1 error in every mRNA molecule. Poisson would imply some molecules have 2 and 3 errors and many have zero. Now imagine you inject 40 Trillion molecules where each one is different. The combinatorics are mind blowing.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
The good news is that folk at BASE are starting to look at this problem with direct RNA sequencing with Oxford Nanopore (ONT). But the m1pUs look foreign to the ONT platform and get called as both a C and a T. It's unlikely this will have the accuracy to pick up 1:1K heteroplasmy
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
The bad news is, this should have been done and made public before injecting 1B people. Its pretty bleeding edge so I can see how it was overlooked but at the minimum ILMN sequencing could have measured the heteroplasmies. Probably need UMIs to discount the cDNA syn error.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
But now that the camel has its nose in the tent and has feasted on the money machine.. It will be back for more.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
For those doubting my assessment of the mfg process, BASE spells it out here. Maybe my purity expectations are too high but I'd be anlot less scrupulous if Pfizer/Moderna put any raw sequence live for lot to lot QC. Zero for the vax. Millions for the virus.

@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
If anyone has spare cycles, it would be helpful to calculate the Amino Acid edit distance of The vax Amino Acids to human amino acids in all 6 reading frames. This would give us a framework of the autoimmune risk of these synthesis errors.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
The EMA leak has a lot to say about RNA integrity loss during manufacturing scale up. If I had to guess, Nucleotide purity probably played a role. It’s hard to scale up the synthesis of modified nucleotides and the polymerases don’t like to incorporate them. They stall.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Particularly at long tracks of U. PolyU incorporation it pure N1 methyl pseudoU could create polymerase stall points and truncated mRNA. But RNA integrity numbers also include mRNAs that are too long so one can’t assume it’s only truncated mRNA. https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/european-medicines-agency-eu-pfizer-vaccine/

Ann Arvin, MD. Serves on NIAID Advisory panel with Gates members. Works with the WHO https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ann_Arvin I've only covered the few names at the top of the letter but at the moment this seems pretty overt. Uncle Bill doesnt like anyone who challenges his vax goals.

So what happens? Everyone in the Gates cult gangs up on the independent thinkers to demand the university should contain only their thoughts. Monoversity would be a better name and this is a historical stain on the exceptional Stanford reputation.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Surprised? We witnessed the Yellow Snow Memorandum resort to the same type of hypocritical behavior. They crucified Scot for his Hoover connections The monopolistic ethos of their philanthropist shines through in the behavior of their grant recipients.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
I apologize for mis-spelling Scott’s name. (Two Ts). He left Twitter when the cancel culture purged Twitter in 2021. https://www.statnews.com/2021/01/12/scott-atlas-deletes-twitter-account/

Just so we are clear about philanthropy. The Gates Foundation has over $430M in Pfizer/BioNTech stock. Nothing in Merck’s Ivermectin. NIH has patent royalties for Moderna. But none of this matters. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.axios.com/moderna-nih-coronavirus-vaccine-ownership-agreements-22051c42-2dee-4b19-938d-099afd71f6a0.html https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.fool.com/amp/investing/2020/09/24/4-coronavirus-vaccine-stocks-the-bill-melinda-gate/
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
The holdings are not all BNTX. The 437M is spread across multiple vaccine bets but BioNTech is up 4X since last March and now valued over $100M trading at $107/share today. It was at $13 in Oct 2019.

Remember all the outrage when Billionaire Pedophile Epstein was caught buying university influence? Wrecked a department at MIT. Not suggesting Bill is this evil but it’s a reminder that these conflicts are important to have on the table when his influence network is so large.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
This is where it gets interesting. Gates encourages AZ/Oxford to not take the free vax for all route. That can’t be good for Pfizer. Also set up CEPI to try to control vax pricing. Collusion through NGO/Philanthropy while stock portfolio banking on ROI? https://www.google.com/amp/s/khn.org/news/rather-than-give-away-its-covid-vaccine-oxford-makes-a-deal-with-drugmaker/amp/

FAQs. What’s laughable? 1)It opens with Masks! DanMask Source control is bunk. Many comparative jurisdictions show no effect or worse outcomes. @ianmSC is a good source. @mamasaurusMeg and @KristenMeghan are professional OSHA PPE- they agree with Scott Cloth aerosols droplets.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
2)Asymptomatic spread. Not a driver. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2774102 3)how many Stanford brainiacs does it take to use EndNote? More than 100? Not a single citation required to character assassinate a colleague? That’s why it’s a woke embarrassment. https://t.co/AtXVLTxWkc

No adjustment for socio-economic factors. The authors don’t even mention that the number 1 confounder in all cannabis schizo papers… Schizophrenics have drug seeking behavior as they attempt to self medicate. Causality can’t be linked.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
They have reason to seek cannabis as CBD is an anxiolytic in clinical trials to TREAT schizo. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9110455/ So when a gov agency is looking to discredit cannabis on Pharmas behalf, they set up a study that never looks at the chemotype of the cannabis.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Step back from the fiat funded NIDA noise. Schizophrenia has not changed in frequency in 20 years.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Cannabis use has risen as adolescents exchange it for Alcohol. A positive replacement as alcohol is far more toxic and addictive than cannabis. Hard facts booze bags won’t face. EtOH withdraw can kill people with seizures. No such thing with cannabis.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
N of 32 @Cernovich All hat, no cattle. This is a sign of someone who doesn’t read the papers they flaunt. They title search, post their bias and influence farm.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
@Cernovich A balanced review would look at the heritability of schizophrenia. We have far better data on this front than the loose and poorly controlled studies attempting to pin the first drug a schizophrenic reaches for as the cause. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41380-023-02293-8#:~:text=Rare%20copy%20number%20variants&text=Across%20the%20genome%2C%20people%20with,effects%20on%20risk%20%5B17%5D.

@jchilders98 What’s most frustrating about this finding, is that it was predicted to occur and summarily censored. 2021 preprint with @P_McCulloughMD https://osf.io/preprints/osf/bcsa6 Our comments to Nature- https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-023-06800-3#Sec22 Try building DNA sequencers. You learn every methyl group matters.

That same week I was TwitMo’d for pointing out that the @NIH was lying about the mRNA being ‘natural’. They have over $550M in royalty from these modified mRNAs and they know it’s not natural as their patents would never issue if it were.
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
Years later, I still can’t comment on this topic on @elonmusk platform without community note’s censorship. My account doesn’t qualify because I was TwitMo’d. https://anandamide.substack.com/p/twitmo
@Kevin_McKernan - Kevin McKernan
nature just published a bombshell that confirms our warning in 2021 How much more censorship should we tolerate? Here is the Notes on my tweet on this topic. Is it freedom of if the author is gagged from response? @TexasLindsay_ @DrJBhattacharya @shellenberger @JeninYounesEsq https://t.co/LTIhOWjND9

Our comments on the recent Frameshift paper. This was knowable prior to the vaccine program. We warned about it in 2021. We were censored. Only after billions of shots are folks allowed to publish on it. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-023-06800-3#Sec22
