“I think people are seeing that we brought this pandemic upon ourselves by disregarding the warnings of scientists,” says primatologist Jane Goodall

Chimpanzees have no shortage of deadly foes. Logging, mining, deforestation, human population growth, the bush-meat trade, the exotic pet trade, medical research, bad zoos: All have helped shrink the global chimp population from more than a million in 1900 to less than 300,000 today, according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature. Now, add Covid-19.

“The pandemic is a nightmare,” says Jane Goodall over the phone from her family home in Bournemouth, U.K., where she has been sheltering in place since March....

This sweet-faced woman is a liar and plagiarist ! In March 2014 primatologist her publisher Grand Central delayed publication of 'Seeds of Hope' in the wake of accusations of plagiarization. The Washington Post cited at least 12 sections had been lifted from unattributed sources

Listen to a victim of censorship 400 years ago Giordano Bruno, Science need to be protected from censorship before it would be able to help people. If tracing the original outset of this pandemic honestly, anyone should remind the same crucial advice.

If you elevate the floor...you lower the ceiling !

The democrat way.

😭🤣🤣🤣🤣

Scientists have covered themselves in glory with the pandemic haven’t they 🙄

Thank you! I loved this article!

Science is not wisdom

Thank God she's still sleeping with Apes and not with regular society.

She is brilliant! Listen to her

Science is dead. What we have today is sponsored politics

A legend for sure. And it doesn't even require science to simply...

Scientists still do not know enough about Covid so should we all be quarantined for the next several months, years, centuries I think not.

Science is wonderful, scientists, not so much. Sadly, 'scientists say' has a worse track record than a coin flip.

Not gonna lie, I thought she was dead.

Addled bint

The “science” is skewed & it needs to be questioned. If you don’t tow the line you won’t receive grant money & won’t get published.

Goodall is a real champion scientist but I pray not one of correctness first

Susie39212967 Most Agreed

Wre have a pandemic every year - it's called flu season. People get sick(yes even with a vaccine), tens of thousands die(yes with a vaccine) and people trudge on. This is flu 2.0 and everyone is losing their minds. It affects a very small percentage of the population.covid_19

We need all the help we can get with apes these days

Is this the third or fourth time running this “article”

Science is at all time low in credibility and has been bought off by Big Pharma and is now a shameless slut for the $.

HEALTH CARE DEPENDS MOSTLY ON INDIVIDUALS TO FOLLOW, WARNINGS ISSUED IN THEIR INTEREST. INDIVIDUAL SHOULD FEEL RESPONSIBLE TO MAINTAIN THEIR HEALTH, ENSURE GOOD HEALTH TO FAMILY, SOCIETY AT LARGE. GOVERNMENTS, DOCTORS CAN ONLY GUIDE BUT CANNOT IMPOSE, ENFORCE HEALTH CARE METHODS.

I thought Jane Goodall would stand up for us..after all THE WHO ARE TREATING US LIKE LAB MONKEYS....filling us full of crap, ignoring our rattling cages, what if there is life threatening side effects after the JAB....''VACCINES ARE THE BEST WAY TO DEPOPULATE'' Bill Gates

WHO said COVID-19 wasn't transmissible between humans, while China shipped it around the world. Are these the scientists she's talking about?

And she’s an expert because she studied apes?

A wise woman

Please. This Epidemic is merely a sign of how corrupt The Scientific Community really is. They (Kin to all others) have allowed money and politics to make their decisions. As for Jane? You reside in a Jungle far from Civilization. You have no true idea of real Human Politics.

morgfair For America, when Donald is voted out or indicted out, the rest if the World does get it, except for the ones known for dictator like politics, but the rest I believe will change for the better...

So many people these days seem to be delusional about “Fake News..”Conspiracy Theories”..anti axes..climate deniers..pseudoscience...you can’t argue with a Fact..proven + tested by scientific research..

This primatologist, scientifically competent and I cannot tell, but politically and intellectually limited, is naively blaming 'people' instead of saying that governments like China, US, Brazil or whosoever mismanaged the pandemic Covid_19 !!!

That will teach us not to listen to politicians for expert advice.

That, and CHINA.

What warnings? WhoS warning?

P U K E. If they whip her out, you know ALL assets have been deployed.

What if science is controlled by politics? Like in China and Dem controlled America?

This is on China , they really have no idea what’s going to happen to their country because of this.......

Jane, you mean the scientist in China who allowed this to happen before telling the world?

Actually, the CCP and WHO created this pandemic by hiding the science. Facts.

I find it interesting to question a person who has dedicated her life to preserving the environment and everything within it .

Science has been captured by the left wing medical community What's good for them is not good for their opponents. 'Thou protest too much' Who is against BLM protesters in the medical community? Nooooooobody

What exactly did scientists say? Like only CDC can do tests, or like general public don’t need to wear masks?

irresponsible and foolish affirmation

Some things experts said early on: WHO: no human to human transmission FDA: don't wear masks CDC: we'll control COVID testing Chorus: don't ban incoming flights from China; Hydroxychloroquine bad.

If she wants to be taken seriously as a scientist, she needs to call out exactly what practices (eating bats) are anti-science.

And chimps don't go to war

We brought tjis crisis on ourselves by listening to the WHO

Stick to the study of primates Jane. Even under the pretense of warning. A pandemic by it's very definition means there is no periodical data to even begin study, treatment, or cure until it's inception upon societies. So stop the guilt by association bullshit.

FakeNews

JaneGoodallInst claymarsh JeromeAdamsMD FauciFan JaneGoodallCAN Corona is as Fake as $3 Bill. Any Belief in or perpetuation of Extremely Deminishes any medical professional or intellectuals validity in even common subjects. Disgraceful.

Nope, it is because of the U.S. effort to decouple from the CCP!

We used to have leaders that believe in science and went to great length to keep viruses off our shores. Then people, social media and Russia elected Donald Trump. The most inept, corrupt, con artist is now asking you to sacrifice the children for the economy.

Mankind is getting to blind and stupid to see and wake up

It is exactly scientists, Chinese Communist Party scientists, to be exact, that created this biological weapon.

What reality is she living in?

And who is the primarily responsible for all these disasters?🤔

Yes BLM and their worthless scum protesters spread the virus along with violence, destruction and hate!

Sorry Jane, but the scientists have given conflicting advice, and still haven’t gotten a handle on this. They are working on it, but don’t tell me if we had only followed their advice we would be okay. Wear your mask and be kind.

❤❤❤❤

I believe that the blame for the Chinese pandemic lies with Xi and the Chinese Communist.

Please tell me, what are those warnings we've disregarded? I've been no where but work, home and buying food since mid March

Fake news

There is a reason this woman is my hero. science

People have already forgot the impact of the virus. That also the explanation of why it's reaching new heights

Warnings to “not eat bats”?

Finally.

Well if hasn’t happened yet, it won’t happen at all.

Which scientists? This is new for everyone.

She means when scientists said it was a bad idea to shop at a Chinese wet market.

Such a liberal classic hack.

I hope too, but I don’t think it will happen. It is sad but it is true

Umm, what warning China lied and people died. It was here before any scientist knew it existed.

Didn’t she fuck gorillas or something!

She's been hanging around primates for way too long. Jane. It's China's fault. It's the Chinese virus. They unleashed this on the world. Try blaming them.

How true. But I'm not sure people who should have learned the lesson.

luvnow4all An honest political discourse scientifically is a must in our democracy... and the very survival of our civilization

No treatment Jane Go back into the mountains.

Oh yeah

To lose one in war is a sacrifice but not in pandemic.

Go away please

We have created new vectors by releasing dormant diseases when searching for Oil/minerals. We have destroyed wildlife habitats forcing animals into cities & increasing the animal to human transfers. Sadly there will be more pandemics and their frequency/deadliness will increase.

The virus has not affected her gorillas yet.

Pandemics are inevitable natural events. Mother Nature doesn’t have any favorites, no matter how devoted you are to her.

Oh get lost Jane. This pandemic was caused by China not revealing information for 6 weeks allowing it to spread and the WHO ignoring Taiwan's warnings because they kow-tow to China and don't recognise Taiwan as a country.

Americans should listen to Fauci's advice, not Trump’s

This woman believes in Bigfoot. And it was the WHO and Fauci who lied and said that masks weren't effective at the beginning.

We don’t deserve any of the beautiful animals on our planet. We are not being responsible for their care.

Or may be don't eat bats, pangolins?

Thanks, Jane. That helps?

couldn't agree more! I mean without a doubt the virus is super contagious and spreads easily but if our government was able to adapt a little better and even look at what other countries are doing then we would be in a much better position today. little to no support from our gov

Who are we? This is a communist virus not a science. Fake news!

Sorry Jane it was Chinese scientists who manufactured it! Reuters WSJ Senate CDC NIH DARPA NSA interpol Mossad MI6

mdsharpe2 ☝️ParasitesWillBeParasites 🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠

BS what evidence do you have to support your claim

Jane...aside from staff, hospitals, beds...please opine, how does one plan for a treatment, a cure, or a prophylactic ahead of time for any disease with no pretense or resident history until it strikes? And yes...the Chinese did bring it upon the entire worlds population. Smh...

Aside of course from the moron in the WH and his deplorables who think it is all China’s fault and conspiracy.

Unfortunately not. Most people who disregarded the scientists are not seeing anything.

yeah... won't happen. We are so entrenched in our habits and bullshit that until it's too late, we'll go on unperturbed.

China gave us this virus. No one but China.

Scientists are in agreement that if the national speed limit was 15 mph it would save lives.

This sounds like she thinks all scientists were in total agreement all along.

The same way people disregard climate change.

So did everyone know about the hotness? Because I did not know this.

suuuure lady, like we've never had pandemics for centuries

Except the evidence suggests the virus was created (modified) and released by scientists...

Delusional hope

Nooo, i'm sure people didn't reach this level 😆🤦🏻‍♂️

Absolutely people are watching and understanding how many mistakes we make inadvertently.God help us !!

respectfully, the scientists were not all that knowldegable of all the dynamics involved with this virus.

That is nonsense

So true. Republicans have really done this country a huge disservice. By denying the pandemic, people died needlessly. Republican-controlled states ignored lockdown & reopened businesses prematurely thereby opening the second wave of contagion. Any honest, responsible GOP left?

PSSST Jane, wake up, don't be Another Jo Biden, use what Brain cells you have left. The MOFO Chinese gifted the world the 'Chinese Virus' deliberately or otherwise, time will tell.....

Easy to say after said scientists have been bombarding us on daily basis with warnings of all sorts, often contradicting each other.

Orta pendeja

Makes zero sense

She meant China PDChina

Too bad I have to subscribe to read the Article!

The real pandemic is fear.

Jane Goodall believes Bigfoot is real. Who is going to wake her up?

NLSmith99 Great comment by Jane Goodall and do hope she is heeded! Money must also be kept in the Scientific budgets of All Countries! And.not be cut as has been done for years even in my country of Canada!

The Wall Street Journal has become much like People Magazine. Restating social news that we know as facts.

Smith83K 👍🏻👆

Donald Trump brought the pandemic to us.

Has Dr. Goodall forgotten the cries of 'hysteria, racism, nationalism, and xenophobia at President Trump's travel ban?

You mean created by chinese

Did you know the R 0 for COVID19 is 10, per our CDCgov. That's b4 the WHO said it's airborne.

Down the memory whole, replace Jane Goodall with Katy Perry.

NIH CDC all you folks who hid the truth about vaccines to save the reputation of science. retirement won’t be the same when your grandkid can’t talk or suffers in chronic pain. When your child sees their dreams evaporate. Speak up now. CDCWhistleblower 1986TheAct

Impeach45Again

Some people will always remain selfish and stupid Jane.

I think we brought it on by ignoring the Bible. That led to electing socialists who use a flu to destroy freedom and push totalitarianism. Any questions?!?

Kung flu 😷😭

Who is the we? I believe we includes our politician and wall street elites who allow the slave driven totalitarian CCP, who never believes and seeks to destroy western world, to be incorporated into our civilized economy.

Or rather what scientists brought upon us.

No! China did. No! Chinese Communist Party did.

The pandemic would be over by now if we ignored the scientists....FACT

Yeah never to go to China

Jane Goodall believes in bigfoot. lol

I love you Janegoodall but I hate when “everyone” is blamed for the actions of evil people in charge & their sycophants & followers. Pandemics are bound to happen, but the amount of death & suffering is directly related to having the wrong people in charge of controlling it.

She really means is there are too many Chinese people.

Cancer Cured 100%.

She should know! She has success in studying behaviors and sees humankind's misbehavior in this matter!

Yes, the new high priests!

“We” didn’t. But, we all know who did.

More a product of scientists: COVID $7.4 Mil taxpayer $ to fund NIH GOF research which involves manipulating viruses in the lab to explore their potential for infecting humans. Look it up!

No. The “expert” scientist could do nothing to prevent the spread. There is only one truth and it’s not in man.

Probably so!

If it wasn’t the Chinese government can you help in getting their wet markets shut down where fresh bat soup with the bat in the soup is served? Or is it just easier to blame America?

I doubt it. Humans are not going to acknowledge their wrongs just because of a global pandemic. Too many selfish, stupid people in this world.

Pandemic parties in Miami definitely puts primates at higher level. Wait, Disney just re-opened.

well. who eats bats? the chinese!!! in addition they eat rats, cockroaches, they eat everything that moves that is where it all starts!!!

Are they? Cause February would have been the time for this.

Um China?

More political science

No...China brought this on the world and there’s more proof than ever with defectors like recent virologist who said they knew in 4th qtr 2019 but hid it purposefully

Herbsistah 'Believe me, I'm not the only chimpanzee who thinks Trump's a putz! He's become a running joke here!'--Larry the Chimpanzee to Jane Goodall, just the other day.

Ok for scientists to warn us, but we also need preventative solutions from same scientists. Definitive information also helps. Not like inconsistent info we’ve been getting from the WHO.

China’s practice of bringing wild animals into public markets for sale really should have been criticized by WHO long before....this is why America has FDA to inspect foods for human consumption thus preventing diseases and contaminants.... China’s cheap antiquated markets?

Actually scientists brought this pandemic on us by experimenting with and then releasing this bat virus into the human population.

thanks for the rerun from months ago

..... nearly all of the warnings were wrong though.... I wish idiots like her would stop using science as a panacea fount of truth. The Covid thing isn't nearly as bad as the warnings said. Most of the deaths were caused by other things.

What a stupid and irresponsible declaration.

What we need from scientists is a cure, not self righteousness.

It is truly mind-boggling how unprepared our government and healthcare leaders were for something that was acknowledged to be inevitable. IncompetentElites CompletelyForeseeable

She is right. For example public healthcare didn’t cater for pandemic and forced lockdowns. Additionally science should have pointed out that the Imperial College model was rubbish. Science should also point out that taking an average of wrong models like the IPCC does is wrong.

Jane appears to be unfamiliar with America.

Warnings like 'no human to human transmission' and 'masks don't work'

It’s a Bioweapon used by the government for power and control over the people

The WHO had a research team working on bats to identify viruses that could be dangerous to humans. Found roughly 4 a year (go Fact Check). Directly bites are not dangerous. There has to be a host inbeteen. All that saves us is the kind of host needed. COVID probably pigs. Check

So right. Conspiracy Theories are nonsense. We destroyed the bats’s habitat. Now they are forced to prey on “domesticated” animals like pigs that becomes the host of the virus. The bat bites us? No problem. The bats bite a host for the virus and we eat it. BIG problems

SHE CAN'T SHE THE JUNGLE FOR THE JUNGLE. KUNG FLU WAS DESIGNED WITH THE INTENT TO DESTROY REAL AMERICA

Really do you think Americans these days listen to anyone? If they listened to logic, would you have a current leader. Pride hath its fall.

JoeBainbridge13 Says the woman who does adverts for British Airways.

That's simply not true.

Yeah - okay. Didn’t hear about you last year or even 6 months ago - so now you warn us. Nice to be a Monday morning quarterback.

we brought it on ourselves by combining two viruses

It was China

This is NOT a pandemic. It is a planned out global SCAMdemic! Wear a mask if you want, but never, never, NEVER accept the poison vaccine!

Well and correctly said. Knowledge and experience speaks.

Anyone got something good to say? Any objective analysis? What is the point of glad handing do Gooders mouthing inane stupidity?

Have we forgotten that it's in large part (applied) science that has brought us into the mess we're in?

Yeah. Don't eat Bats, Cats, Dogs and wild exotic animals

No, Trump did it, as well as right wing 'media'.

US think they're Gods or superheroes,they think they should ve been spared when the whole world is affected hence to politicize it blaming one person.I never thought in my entire life there are so many uneducated and people who can believe in propaganda brought upon the media.

On this one, I agree 💯 with Mrs. Goodall ✅ — but about her chats with 🐒 chimpanzees ... pure baloney. 😬 (my opinion)

Science is at all time low in credibility and has been bought off by Big Pharma and is now a shameless slut for the $.

They intentionally let it spread. WHO didn't even want travel restricted from China while they themselves were doing lockdowns. Think for yourself.

Until Donald Trump leaves office, science will be disregarded and the rest of society will face the consequences of such actions... We have already seen this with Covid-19. If science was more regarded, we would have been much more prepared for what was to come.

Completely different. Don't be fooled by everyone. The Chinese virus is a biochemical weapon. The Wall Street Journal puts it up to the Communist Party's attempt to replace the problem. ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Some believe the spread of COVID-19 was deliberate to help bring down our government as well taking focus off the Trump administrations crimes An excuse to raid our Treasury to steal money such 7 million to Dr Phil, 7 billion to churchs. We in the middle of the 2nd Coup D'etat

I adore you JaneGoodall

“We” No Jane, THE CHINESE

China virus.

Unfortunately people forget very quickly and as history has shown repeat the same mistakes.

Fake news

Well, the Chinese govt brought it upon us.

Incredible fear porn wank. Your 'publication' is worse than a rag.

❤❤❤🙂

People are fist fighting over needing to wear masks. Pandemic is just one more sickness America needs to add to its stack before the final death rattle.
