all my Zika-hoax articles<\/a> here. Suffice to say, researchers have only established a very weak correlation between the presence of Zika and the occurrence of microcephaly.<\/p>\nThis weak correlation is actually evidence that Zika has nothing to do with microcephaly.<\/p>\n
But now, we\u2019re in the \u201cexpansion\u201d phase. Medical bureaucrats at the CDC and the World Health Organization (WHO), knowing they\u2019re standing on quicksand, knowing they\u2019re nothing more than professional liars, are executing a familiar cover story.<\/p>\n
They\u2019re claiming that Zika causes a number of other conditions in babies. They\u2019re ranging all over the map. Zika can cause smaller heads in babies with no brain damage, or brain damage without smaller heads? Or paralysis? Or who knows what else\u2026<\/p>\n
Later addiction to ice cream? The desire to play outdoors? Interest in cowboys and Indians? Love of Law&Order reruns?<\/p>\n
By smearing the possible conditions Zika can cause from the North Pole to the tip of Argentina\u2014with nothing more than very weak correlations in each instance\u2014the plan is to give the impression that Zika is creating a great deal of damage.<\/p>\n
But as I\u2019ve pointed out, weak correlation A plus weak correlation B plus weak correlations C,D,E, and F equal overall Weak Correlation, not actual evidence of a causal connection.<\/p>\n
Smoke and mirrors equals smoke and mirrors.<\/p>\n
If researchers claimed that teenagers eating spinach caused the flu, and cited populations in France, England, Iceland, and New Zealand, where, respectively, 15%, 20%, 2%, and 10% of teens with flu had eaten spinach\u2014and asserted that the \u201cwidespread\u201d occurrence of flu-with-spinach was \u201cproof\u201d of a causal connection, you would see the fallacy and the fraud immediately.<\/p>\n
So see the fraud here. It\u2019s the same nonsense. The same absurdity.<\/p>\n
And keep in mind the potential for big profits from a Zika vaccine.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019ll protect your baby from the effects of a virus that causes nothing.\u201d<\/p>\n
The birth defect called microcephaly is nothing new. Neither is the presence of the Zika virus, which was discovered in 1947 and has never been known to create more than mild transient discomfort.<\/p>\n
The only brain problem associated with Zika occurs in those people who buy what the press is blathering about Zika.<\/p>\n
Nothing new there, either.<\/p>\n
\nHere\u2019s a recent \u201coops\u201d Zika revelation:<\/p>\n

\u201cBrazil\u2019s microcephaly epidemic continues to pose a mystery \u2014 if Zika is the culprit, why are there no similar epidemics in other countries also hit hard by the virus? In Brazil, the microcephaly rate soared with more than 1,500 confirmed cases. But in Colombia, a recent study of nearly 12,000 pregnant women infected with Zika found zero microcephaly cases. If Zika is to blame for microcephaly, where are the missing cases?\u201d<\/p>\n
Indeed.<\/p>\n
But don\u2019t worry. The CDC and WHO will explain what\u2019s happening in Colombia. They\u2019ll say Zika causes other conditions there. For example, the disorder known as irrational fear of US planes spraying highly toxic pesticides to eradicate coca fields, and also resentment against multinational corporations that have been gobbling up land and resources.<\/p>\n
You see, Zika infects the brain and causes these unwarranted hallucinations\u2026.<\/p>\n
