The monthly magazines' WiLL and Hanada, which are now on sale, are filled with genuine articles and editorials. And yet, the price is only 950 yen (including consumption tax).
A friend of mine who is an avid reader is fond of saying that "nothing is as cheap as a book," and both magazines demonstrate that this is true.
Every Japanese citizen should go to the nearest bookstore right now to subscribe.
The genuine editorials and articles in both journals are a must-read for the Japanese and people worldwide.
I have tried to make them known as much as possible to the people of the world.
Japan is a country where the turntable of civilization is turning and where, along with the United States, it must lead the world for another 170 years.
It is only natural that the world's best papers are being published day and night in Japan.
Until July 2010, when this column appeared, it had not disseminated these papers to the world at all.
It is what has made today's world unstable and extremely dangerous.
In this chapter, I would like to introduce an article by Hideki Kakeya, Associate Professor of Systems Information Systems at the University of Tsukuba, which appears in WiLL.
He is a real scholar who is entirely unknown to people who do not subscribe to the above monthly magazine or who subscribe to Asahi Shimbun and watch only T.V. news programs.
It is no exaggeration to say that they and the rest of the world like them have never read a genuine paper like his.
Don't Let Up on the Pursuit of China
by Hideki Kakeya.
Scientists who remain silent on contradictory Chinese claims are corrupt in their sense of ethics.
Complete Cozy Relationship
There is also a problem with the composition of the WHO's international survey team.
The U.S. member of the team was Peter Dajak, a virologist who worked in Wuhan.
He is a virologist who has conducted joint research with Shi Zhengli and others at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
He has an apparent conflict of interest in investigating the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
Until now, the Wuhan Institute of Virology has conducted many joint research projects with U.S. virologists.
It is because they have been able to conduct dangerous research that is banned in the U.S.
This study called "function acquisition research" modifies the genes of existing viruses to make them more susceptible to human infection and increase their virulence.
Naturally, it can apply this technology to the development of biological weapons.
The genes of the new coronaviruses have some unnatural characteristics, such as a particular tendency to bind to the ACE2 receptor in humans.
Many studies have been conducted in the past to realize these characteristics by artificially modifying the virus's genes, and the results have been published in many academic papers.
The Wuhan Institute of Virology is one of the research institutions that have published such papers.
From the standpoint of a virologist who has been researching the acquisition of functions, including Dajack's, it would be easy to understand.
If the virus leaks from the laboratory, it will not be possible to continue research using the Chinese laboratory as before.
They would not be able to obtain a research budget and would not be able to write papers.
In other words, it would put them in a difficult position as a researcher.
Under such circumstances, they cannot be expected to conduct an impartial investigation at all.
There have been several reports about Dajack that have made me question his fairness as a scientist.
In February 2020, scientists, including Dajack, issued a statement in the journal The Lancet condemning the "conspiracy theory" that a new coronavirus had leaked from the lab.
However, according to an online article in the Daily Caller on January 18, 2021, Dajak's spokesperson reportedly told the Wall Street Journal that he stated to protect Chinese researchers.
Although it is a complete adhesion, WHO, which dispatches researchers who have an adhesion relationship with Chinese researchers as members of the research team, is naturally questioned for its fairness.
This article continues.
