Justine Landis-HanleyHOST
That summer, Elizabeth's years of studying Mandarin paid off.
Justine Landis-HanleyHOST
She spent the summer working at the prestigious Genome Institute in Singapore, where she worked on testing for the SARS virus that had broken out in China.
Justine Landis-HanleyHOST
In that lab, testing for SARS was done the traditional way.
Justine Landis-HanleyHOST
So, you know, collecting large blood samples, taking nasal swabs.
Justine Landis-HanleyHOST
But at Stanford, Elizabeth had been studying microchip technology that could run tests using tiny amounts of liquid.
Stuart ParsonsGUEST
But they get implicated in a lot of things.
Stuart ParsonsGUEST
So more recently, SARS, they were implicated in that, particularly through coronaviruses.
Stuart ParsonsGUEST
And of course, COVID, they were implicated.
Stuart ParsonsGUEST
But the thing is, bats don't have those coronaviruses.
Stuart ParsonsGUEST
We brought them closer to humans that allows for this spillover.
Stuart ParsonsGUEST
So, you know, much as people have seen it in the media, bats didn't cause COVID.
Stuart ParsonsGUEST
Bats didn't cause SARS.
Stuart ParsonsGUEST
There's some things like Ebola is a really interesting one because bats have always been implicated as being the source or what we call the reservoir of Ebola.
Sean RyanSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
He wouldn't say the COVID vaccine was patented prior to 2020.
Sean RyanSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
He would say the SARS vaccine was patented prior to.
Sean RyanSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
But the narrative was the COVID-19 vaccine was patented before 2020. patented long before covet 19 ever even came out but he never made it like i said he would switch it to song he would switch we would be saying coveted but then he would say the sars vaccine and so he left and i was like i mean there's got to be like a million different there's there's like thousands of variations of sars and coven And so why did he keep switching it? Why didn't he just say the COVID-19 vaccine? Why did he switch it to SARS?
ColinSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
That's interesting.
ColinSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And
Kennedy LayGUEST
And, yeah, so, you know, the childhood fascination of piloting.
Kennedy LayGUEST
But having conservative parents, which has, you know, they've lived through SARS, 9-11 and various...
Kennedy LayGUEST
Global events that halted aviation, they encouraged me to pursue a different pathway.
Kennedy LayGUEST
And, you know, these are very soft words.
Peter LapHOST
And it's a shocker to everybody.
Peter LapHOST
Dude, the SARS virus was in 2002.
Peter LapHOST
That was literally called SARS-CoV, the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus.
Peter LapHOST
COVID didn't appear.
Peter LapHOST
in 2019 as a brand new boom, boom, out of the blue.
Peter LapHOST
In 2005, we have MERS, of course, Middle Eastern Respiratory Syndrome, which was in Saudi in the 2010s.
Peter LapHOST
I want to say 2010, but it might be out by a few years.
Peter LapHOST
And, of course, in 2019 we have SARS-CoV-2, which is the full name.
Alvin LeungGUEST
I think it was 2003, so I'm 42.
Alvin LeungGUEST
And it was during SARS in Hong Kong.
Alvin LeungGUEST
There was a lot of speakeasy.
Alvin LeungGUEST
And my friend had a restaurant that was going under, so I was available to take it over.
Nicole PintoGUEST
In high school, I was part of like a hygiene committee.
Nicole PintoGUEST
At that time, I think we had, I think it was SARS.
Nicole PintoGUEST
Yeah, it was SARS.
Nicole PintoGUEST
We were in the middle of SARS.
Nicole PintoGUEST
And so I was part of a hygiene committee.
Nicole PintoGUEST
So like that, I joined that committee in essence of like, you know, eventually doing my MPH or going to public health or something.
9 MINS LATER
Laura JamesHOST
For listeners who may not be familiar with EMAT, those in other provinces or in the States, tell us about the team and what is its role in supporting Ontario's healthcare emergency response capabilities.
Nicole PintoGUEST
So EMAT is a Ontario Health System support.
Tim OzmanHOST
These are propaganda mules.
Tim OzmanHOST
And these propaganda mules want to come to me and say, why don't we talk about the real world like SARS and PCR tests? No, I don't care about your fantasy.
Tim OzmanHOST
The fact that you're stuck in fantasy and you feel the need to come antagonize me says that you're either very insecure about the basis of your beliefs or there's something else.
Tim OzmanHOST
some type of an agent or operative trying to influence me which just won't happen you're not going to convert me to normieville you're not going to convert me to gullible hyper propagandized truman in some kind of a construct like no you're not going to get me there i'm sorry Not interested.
Adam FeuersteinHOST
What did she tell you about that and her decision to join STAT and to become this legendary, widely respected public health reporter reporting about infectious diseases?
Brenda BranswellGUEST
If I can just backtrack a teensy bit, she started covering health when she was at the Canadian Press, and then she got a Knight Fellowship at the CDC that she told me recently was career-altering and She had been covering SARS in Toronto.
Brenda BranswellGUEST
And as time progressed, I just think she was increasingly interested in infectious diseases and public health and global health.
Brenda BranswellGUEST
And the opportunity at STAT was just, it was a fantastic one.
Del BigtreeHOST
We were already reporting the exact opposite.
Del BigtreeHOST
We knew hydroxychloroquine worked, not just because Henry Ford would ultimately publish on that, but because Tony Fauci had done studies with the NIH a decade earlier during the original SARS outbreak.
Del BigtreeHOST
This was our reporting then.
Del BigtreeHOST
These are new cases going up like this.
Del BigtreeHOST
is now at the peak, and the New York Times is saying tens of thousands of people have died, this thing was horrible, this horrible death rate, what responsibility will be laid at the feet of Anthony Fauci for not listening all the way back here? Back here, when Didier Raoult said, game over, on February 25th, Anthony Fauci waited until April 9th to start a trial on this product.
Del BigtreeHOST
If you take this scale and you bring it all the way back and back and back and back, continuing back, What we find all the way back here in 2005 compared to that graph right there where Fauci waited over eight weeks, or roughly eight weeks, from the moment Didier Raoult says, game over, chloroquine works.
Del BigtreeHOST
Back in 2005, the NIH... where Anthony Fauci has worked since the 1980s, funded a hydroxychloroquine study that looked at its use on SARS coronavirus.
Del BigtreeHOST
This study right here.
