Professor Salim Abdool Karim

THERE is a significant contradiction between Professor Salim Abdool Karim’s claim that the hantavirus risk can be contained (the POST, May 13 – 18) and the disclosure that hantavirus is actually one of the side effects of the Covid-19 the messenger Ribonucleic Acid (mRNA) so-called vaccine.
On page 33 of Pfizer’s web page concerning the side-effects of the mRNA jab, reference is made to the possibility of pulmonary infection from hantavirus. That means the millions of recipients of the mRNA jab are potentially open to becoming ill with hantavirus and potentially spreading it.
While that possibility is alarming, it comes at a time when the truths about the effects of the Covid-19 mRNA jab are surfacing. Worldwide, there has been a spike in “unexplained deaths”, mortality rates have exceeded normal levels, fit and healthy athletes have suffered cardiac arrest and death, as early as February 2023, three million were added to the disability rolls in the US.
Karim was a leading promoter of the mRNA jab which at the time was known by the US Centre for Disease Control (CDC) to be neither effective in promoting immunity nor in treating infection. Messenger Ribonucleic Acid was also known to have hundreds of potential side effects and to be a health risk.
Nonetheless, as we all remember, the CDC, the World Health Organization and the South African Health Products Regulatory Authority with which Karim is closely allied, vigorously disparaged and censored opponents of their "get the jab" narrative as agents of “misinformation”.
So, it is difficult to accept Karim’s confident assurance that hantavirus will be contained because while he reportedly ignores it as a side effect of the mRNA jab, at the same time he says there is no vaccine, therefore, “we cannot really treat it”. So how will it be contained? Is he going to propose another round of unscientific masks, social distancing and lockdowns?
In that context and for his role in promoting the discredited mRNA jab, Karim’s credibility leaves a lot to be desired.
