Living Testimony in The Form of An Affidavit From Christine Massey Re Worldwide FOI Responses November 9 2021 SIGNED
I testify as an expert to the facts set forth herein, and my statements herein are based
upon personal knowledge.
I clarified in my requests that I was using the word "isolation" or “purification” in the
every-day sense: the act of separating the alleged virus from everything else in a patient
sample, and that I was not requesting records where "isolation of SARS-COV-2" refers
instead to the culturing of something, or the performance of an amplification test (i.e. a
PCR test), or the sequencing of something.

I also clarified that my requests were not limited to records that were authored by the
institution in question and were not limited to records that describe work done by the
institution in question, but included any such study/report authored by anyone,
anywhere.
In each request, I asked that if any records held by the institution in question matched
my description of requested records, but were currently available to the public
elsewhere, that the institution provide enough information about each publicly available
record so that I may identify and access each one with certainty.
In many of my requests, I also clarified that I was not requesting private patient records,
or records that describe the replication of an alleged virus without host cells.
After the first alleged "variant" was announced in December of 2020, many of my
requests also specified that they applied to any alleged “variants” as well as to the
original alleged virus.
I submitted 2 separate requests to the Public Health Agency of Canada. The first
request was as stated above. The 2nd request was specifically regarding purification of
the alleged “UK variant”, also known as “the alpha variant” or “B.1.1.7”.
Thus far, I have received responses from well over 25 Canadian institutions and all
have failed to provide or cite even 1 record describing purification of the alleged virus
(or variant) from any patient sample, by anyone, anywhere [Exhibit #1].

In their initial response that was sent to me via email on December 7, 2020, the Public
Health Agency of Canada provided me with 1 study by Bullard et al. that had been
supported by Manitoba Health, Cadham Provincial Laboratory, the Public Health
Agency of Canada and National Microbiology Laboratory, and with several emails that
they claimed to be responsive to my request. The Abstract of the study states: “RT-
PCR detects RNA, not infectious virus.” Neither the study nor the emails described
purification of the alleged virus from a patient sample or from anything else.
I responded via email to the Public Health Agency of Canada on December 7, 2021,
advising that none of the provided records describe the separation of the alleged virus
from everything else in a patient sample.
In their revised response to that same request, emailed to me on February 2, 2021, the
Public Health Agency of Canada indicated that my request had resulted in a “No
Records Exist”, and stated that the gold standard used to determine the presence of
intact virus in patient samples is visible cytopathic effects on cells in a cell culture. Their
letter states that “in the case of SARS-COV-2 isolation” kidney epithelial cells extracted
from an African green monkey (“Vero cells”) “combined with minimal essential medium
(MEM) were used because they are essential to support viral replication and cell
growth.”
The revised response also stated that “PCR further confirms that intact virus is present”.
In response to my 2nd request to the Public Health Agency of Canada, they indicated
that they were unable to locate any records describing purification of the alleged
alpha/UK variant from any patient sample.
3
Of the remaining Canadian institutions, all indicated that they have no such records.
These include Health Canada (responsible for authorizing “COVID-19” clinical trials,
diagnostic tests, “vaccines” and therapeutics), National Research Council of Canada,
Royal Canadian Mounted Police, Ontario’s Ministry of Health, Public Health Ontario
(responsible for providing scientific and technical advice to clients working in
government, public health, health care, and related sectors), University of Ottawa,
Ontario Provincial Police, Kingston, Frontenac, Lennox and Addington Public Health
(KFL&A PH, while the current “Chief Medical Officer of Health for Ontario”, Dr. Kieran
Moore, was still serving at KFL&A PH as “Medical Officer of Health”), all 5 Canadian
institutions whose researchers claim to have “isolated” the alleged COVID-19 virus (the
Vaccine and Infectious Disease Organization-International Vaccine Centre aka VIDO-
InterVac at University of Saskatchewan, University of Toronto, McMaster University,
Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto and Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre in Toronto),
numerous municipalities and public health units and several more police service
corporations.
Regarding Health Canada specifically, on June 11th, 2020 at 11:42 AM Barbara Haase,
Senior ATIP Analyst, Access to Information and Privacy, advised me that Health
Canada would not typically evaluate the type of information I had requested. On June
23rd, 2020 she stated that Health Canada’s role is only to review evidence provided by
sponsors in order to make regulatory decisions to approve products and authorize
clinical trials, and that I may wish to contact the sponsors of clinical trials and/or
companies in order to get the information I was seeking.
Further, numerous people have provided me with additional documents that appear to
me to be legitimate freedom of information responses from additional Canadian health
and science institutions, in response to the same, or similar, requests for records
describing purification of the alleged COVID-19 virus. In most cases I was provided the
original, un-redacted communications, and redacted the name of the request-submitter
myself, in order to protect their identity. In every instance the institution failed to provide
4
or cite even 1 record describing purification of the alleged virus from a patient sample,
by anyone, anywhere, or proof of its alleged existence.
These Canadian institutions include the Health Canada, the Public Health Agency of
Canada, Canadian Institutes of Health Research, Natural Sciences and Engineering
Research Council of Canada, Institut National de Sante Publique du Quebec, British
Columbia’s Ministry of Health (regarding the alleged “B.1.1.7” aka “Alpha” aka “UK”
variant), British Columbia’s Centre for Disease Control, British Columbia’s Provincial
Health Services Authority, Vancouver Coastal Health Authority (regarding the alleged
Alpha variant), Newfoundland Labrador Department of Health & Community Services,
New Brunswick’s Department/Ministry of Health and McGill University [Exhibit #2].
Further, numerous people have provided me with additional documents that appear to
me to be legitimate freedom of information responses from additional health, science
and political institutions from outside of Canada, in response to the same, or similar,
requests for records describing purification of the alleged COVID-19 virus, as well as
apparent court documents from the Republic of South Africa and Portugal. In most
cases I was provided the original, un-redacted communications, and redacted the name
of the request-submitter myself, in order to protect their identity. In every instance the
5
institution failed to provide or cite even 1 record describing purification of the alleged
virus from a patient sample, by anyone, anywhere, or proof of its alleged existence.
