The world has become more polarized than ever. Opinions are being censored. Doctors are being censored. Even some scientists have been banned from YouTube altogether, simply because some of their opinions went against what public officials deem to be the truth.
This is a very dangerous slippery slope. Science can only evolve if we look at all angles of a problem, engage in scientific debate and hear from a wide array of people who might have completely different views.
In this new series of articles, I’ll be featuring highly respected scientists who are expressing opinions about many aspects of the COVID pandemic that do not fit the mainstream narrative, and who are therefore often ignored in the media.
My goal in presenting these experts with you is not to argue that these contrarians possess the ultimate truth, but to present you with the other side — and help you reach a balanced understanding of this crisis, and empower you to think for yourself and make your own decisions.
Alexandra Henrion-Caude: World-Renowned Geneticist Saddened & Shocked That Her Colleagues Are Muzzled By Pharma-Related Conflicts of Interests
***All translations from French are mine.***
Alexandra Henrion-Caude is a French geneticist. For years, she was a researcher at the French government’s Institut national de la santé et de la recherche médicale (Inserm). She received many scientific awards in her career and has done work on epigenetics, reducing healthcare costs, glucose regulation and bioethics.
In a recent interview at TVLibertés, Alexandra talked extensively about the COVID virus, which she said “is essentially gone”. Here are some of her professional opinions:
1- The SARS-CoV-2 Virus Was Likely Tampered With By Scientists
“It’s almost as if scientists have fled this level of investigation. […] I cannot answer your question ‘what are the origins of this virus’. […] When we look at SARS-CoV-2 genome, small sequences modifying how human cells deal with the virus quickly jump to the eye.
[…] What is interesting with SARS-CoV-2 is a small sequence between S1 and S2 that is unique to this coronavirus — among all coronaviruses in humans and animals. […] This sequence happened to miraculously land right at the junction between proteins S1 and S2, which is very peculiar.
[…] This mutation is extreme bad luck. […] What is also stunning, thinking about how viruses evolve naturally, is that this sequence gives this virus a specific function in human beings: Being recognized by the human body, allowing its replication. We cannot exclude the hypothesis of natural evolution, but looking at the sequence, the most probable hypothesis is that the virus was tampered with.”
2- Chinese Scientists Recommended To Avoid Autopsies On COVID Patients, Which Could Have Prevented a Lot of Deaths
“So-called experts from China have not been transparent, and shared numbers that we now know could never have been true. No one talks about it anymore, but it’s clear that we have received misinformation from China.
These are the same experts that told Italians ‘Don’t worry, we know how to deal with this’ when the virus hit Europe. And the first thing they say is ‘don’t do any autopsy’. This is bizarre, because when a new virus appears, and we have a first patient that dies from it — normally you would expect to see a thorough autopsy program put in place, all while taking the necessary precautions.
Italians got deceived, they followed these recommendations and did not do any autopsy. This is regrettable, and could have prevented a lot of deaths, including in France.
[…] They waited until March to finally do autopsies, and learn how the virus impacts the human body. This is another scandal, no one talked about it, no one seems to do a big deal out of it.”
3- The Median Age of COVID Deaths Is Equal to Life Expectancy, But No One Mentions That Fact
We didn’t talk enough about the median age of COVID deaths, which was around 81 years old — which is telling. This age is equivalent to life expectancy. I don’t understand why no one talked about it!
4- COVID-Related Interventions Like Masking And Lockdowns Are Suppressing The Immune System
“The immune system is a precious health resource that we can nurture: By exercising, by avoiding being locked down for 2 months, by oxygenating your body — which means, avoiding putting a mask on, by eating well, which means being able to go out to buy healthy foods.
We’ve done the opposite. We’ve done everything to suppress the immune system.
Another thing that can disturb the immune system is being stressed. If I put you in a quarantine in a room of this studio, and then I scare you all the time, I can guarantee that your immune system will be negatively impacted, and that you’ll be likely to get sick — not because you had previous co-morbidities, but because your body is less likely to be able to naturally fight the virus or bacteria.”
5- The Virus Is Losing Steam And The Pandemic Was Essentially Done In Europe Back in Early May
“Do you think we are in trouble? […] Yes, we can agree we were in trouble back in March, but now we are today, which means we can benefit from data and observations we’ve gathered in the last months — including what drugs to use […].
Now, we know how to treat COVID cases. We are also seeing COVID fade out. Yes, we are seeing more cases, but it’s important to not make the mistake of thinking we are still in the middle of a pandemic. […] In most European countries, the pandemic is over [since early May].
In countries where COVID is still spreading like India and Brazil, the curve is slowing down — it’s starting to take more and more time for the number of deaths to double. This means the virus is globally losing steam. […] Is it because the virus is losing strength or because we know how to treat COVID better… I don’t have the answer.”
6- There’s No Significant Excess Mortality, We Should Probably Not Even Call This a Pandemic Anymore, And a Second Wave is a Bizarre Idea
“I simply do not understand why we’re doing so much now that there’s reasonable doubt that we should even call this a pandemic, on a global level. Compared to previous years, we have not seen an increase in excess mortality which is normally associated with a pandemic.
We are around 650,000 deaths worldwide, if we believe the numbers. […] The numbers are scrambled, but at the end of the day, all that matters is: Are we seeing excess mortality? And the reality is that this excess mortality is not significant.”
Interviewer: “It doesn’t look like the Spanish flu, at least for now…”
Alexandra:
“Let me stop you: Not ‘at least for now’ — because looking at the curves, it’s clear that this is done. It’s over. There are scientists who say ‘there’s going to be a second wave. I would love to debate them on this show or any other platform. A second wave that follows a bell-shaped pandemic… I’ve never heard about this. I’ve been looking for it, and have not found any indication this happened before.
[…] We have to stop with this idea of a second wave. This means that it’s likely a bad idea to put a mask on a population that already has had its immune system suppressed by interventions I’ve told you about previously — including not meeting and mixing with other human beings and sharing viruses and bacteria.”
7- COVID is “An Episode of Collective Hysteria”, And Masks Are Probably a Bad Policy Considering How Often People Touch Their Faces
“If, before this episode of collective hysteria which is destroying our economy, I would have told you ‘take a tissue, spit on it 2-3 times, and keep it 2 or 3 hours on your nose’ — would you have done it? You would not have done it, and you would have said ‘she’s crazy’.
[…] It’s clearly stated on each mask packaging that they do not protect its user against COVID. The holes in the fabric are so huge that they can let hundreds of thousands of COVID particles through.
I’m not against masks when it’s used well, in a population that knows how to use them. […] We’re latin, we speak with our hands, touch our faces frequently, and by doing so are creating a sort of concentrated slew of exhaled bacteria and viruses which were supposed to have been diluted in the air — and start spreading it everywhere you touch.”
Conclusion: “I’m Saddened And Shocked That So Many of My Esteemed Colleagues Have Been Silent…”
I’m shocked, and very sad. Shocked by the fact that the global intellectual elite has been this silent — but I quickly understood that so many of my esteemed colleagues were being muzzled by their masks, and by their conflicts of interests with pharmaceutical laboratories. By decency, they have chosen not to bite the hand that feeds them.
It’s sad, because these colleagues have the intellectual capacity to denounce what I’ve been denouncing today. […] I’m also devastated thinking about what’s next: Like the idea of enforcing a mandatory vaccine. If you don’t have a vaccine, you might not be able to travel, to vote… I don’t know how far this will go.”

Hey Nick, there appears to be a couple of translating errors under point #5. ….Yes, we can agree we were in trouble back in March, but now we are today, which means we can benefit from data and observations we’ve gathered in the last months….. was this supposed to say ‘but now HERE we are today’? And second, ‘we are also COVID fade out’. Not sure what that means……Otherwise, great post as always!
Hey Amanda, sorry about that, looks like our editing process missed a few things. Fixing now.
You are noticeably quiet now that we are on WAVE 3 here, November 19, 2020, with over 250,000 dead in the US and over 11 million infected with this virus you continue to downplay, millions dead worldwide, many more suffering long term disability with no known treatment. In short, you should give up pretending you have any idea of what you are talking about and refer your readers to the real experts at places such as Johns Hopkins and NYU Langone. *highly recommend them. Also, please wear your masks, they protect you as well as others, so that we can get on with life. Their effectiveness was proven in a study in 2019, I believe, which has been posted on the AMA’s JAMA front page since Feb 2020, comparing N95 and Surgical Masks, and their effectiveness in preventing the flu virus (same particle size) in frontline medical personnel. That study found both types of masks equally highly effective at protecting THE WEARER from getting the flu. If you want to read real medical papers on what is going on, you can follow MEDRVIX.ORG which publishes all the studies submitted prior to their publication in official journals. You can also follow Yale Internal Med and individual frontline treating doctors on twitter and really get an idea of what is happening out there.
Hey Jennifer,
I have been following COVID developments daily since my last article, but have been focused on my EMF work. I’m happy I did, EMFs are less depressing than COVID overall.
Respectfully, your comment shows me that you still operate within the “corona-panic” paradigm. You’re completely misinformed about what the data says.
I won’t be able to form a very thorough comment in the limited time I have, but what I can say is:
– “Over 250,000 dead from covid in the US” — completely wrong. Overall mortality in 2020 will likely end up being similar to previous years, only reinforcing the idea that the death toll has been completely overblown. In most instances anyone with a covid-positive test who dies from any cause is considered a covid death. The real number of people who died “from” covid is likely a fraction of this number.
– “Many more suffering long-term disabilities” — there’s no solid evidence that “long-covid” is any worse than the post-viral syndrome that’s seen with influenza and many more viruses. A lot of speculation and anecdotes, not a lot of substance.
– Re: masks — the data is flimsy at best. 3 RCTs have come out in 2020 trying to find if masks protect from covid… one showed an *increase* in infection, two showed no statistically significant reduction in infections or deaths. The idea that someone wearing a mask protects others is, once again, not supported by solid science. A lot of speculation and mechanistic studies.
The idea of a 2nd or 3rd wave that’s as significant as the first still is completely crazy. What we’re seeing at the moment is a pandemic of testing and the corona-panic that just won’t go away.
I stand by everything I’ve been writing this year, and unfortunately the covid measures are already killing multiple times more people than covid itself, just like I feared back in late March.
When this plandemic first started, I went to the medical literature. I found an article by a doctor where he reviewed the literature on mask wearing. That review (meaning it was not just based on one study,) concluded the same things that Alexandria Henrion-Caude is saying about masks
1. Most masks have pores that are big enough for viruses to pass through.
2. Masks cut down on wearers’ oxygen levels, negatively impacting health in many wsys
3. Masks trap bacteria and viruses and hold them next to your face. When you combine that with the warm moist air being exhaled, it’s a perfect environment for bacteria to reproduce.
4. A final point which Alexandria didn’t bring up. I’ve read that these masks from China contain hydrogels which people are inhaling that also have dire consequences on health.
When I tried to alert people to this study on FB, I was censored.
100%.
2 years later, the big randomized controlled trials on masks have basically shown that they do not make a difference, and many new studies have confirmed that they cause harms, especially when it comes to language development in young kids. Geez.
Hey… just wanted to say that I so appreciate all your effort and research. I refer back to it often and share it with others. Thank you for all that you do!!!
Thanks Amy, I really appreciate it. I’ve been itching to write a followup article summarizing all that’s happened with COVID this year but the undertaking is so massive that I’m still hesitant. Maybe early next year.
To add to your very logical and sane reply to Jennifer: of prime importance is the Drosten PCR test that has generated nearly all the covid stats – it is currently under fire from 22 scientists asking for its withdrawal from original publication in Eurosurveillance, due to scientific error (10 fatal flaws) and massive conflict of interest. Huge amount of false positives, leading to the current “case-demic”.
I also believe that the nocebo effect is now playing a huge role. (like the placebo effect but the opposite – believing you’ll get negative symptoms makes it come true). It’s on a global scale of mass hysteria. When people get a sniffle or fever and believe so strongly they have the virus, they get the symptoms they expect. Anxiety alone can cause shortness of breath. They get a (probably false) positive PCR result and reinforce that. This means more people being reported as cases, and hospitalizations. A vicious cycle!
Completely accurate. The hyperfocus on covid is creating a self-perpetuating cycle of cases, hospitalizations, and deaths stats. Flu has all but disappeared.
The ONLY way to assess the situation is by following all-cause mortality closely and watching trends. So far, 2020 has year a very non-exceptional year when it comes to overall excess deaths. In some countries like Sweden and Canada, it’s under the yearly average…
4- COVID-Related Interventions Like Masking And Lockdowns Are Suppressing The Immune System
I am locked in my house, Im exercising, oxygenating my body, I dont wear a mask, I eat well, I eat healthy foods. Your arguments don’t make sense.
So am I, but this is not the case of the majority of the population.
Screentime is up, obesity is up, mental illness is exploding, I would really doubt that people are eating healthier foods (probably more restaurant take-outs), and some people wear masks for hours everyday and are less exposed to a wide array of pathogens.
COVID interventions have been a public health disaster, regardless of how well they are working, or not working, to mitigate covid.
