Relevance to pizzagate: Jeffrey Epstein. Tom Hanks is now 'self-isolating' because of the virus. So is Miami Mayor Rick Scott.

I don't need to remind you of all the pizzagate links re Epstein and Hanks but I'll repost the link to a Rick Scott post here: Meghan Markle, the Portland Hospital and HCA Healthcare - which takes us to Rick Scott, ... and the Florida ratlines....

and I'll remind you that Epstein was responsible for the  Program for Evolutionary Dynamics  at Harvard: Jeffrey Epstein, Science Financier, Changes the Course of Evolution at Harvard

So, I was following up some Rick Scott links in this post here: https://voat.co/v/thinkdrafts/3702298 which found some business connections between Rick Scott, Jeff Vinik and Bill Gates.

And then I found a link between Bill Gates and the Santa Fe Institute : https://imgur.com/a/lmzJpD1 From left, Bill Gates, from Microsoft, Michael Dell, from Dell Computer, Bill Joy, from Sun Microsystem/Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, Doyne Farmer, from Prediction Company/Santa Fe Institute, and Esther Dyson, from EDventure Holdings, sit together at a table during a dinner at the annual PC Forum, Tucson, Arizona, February 23-26, 1992.

J. Doyne Farmer https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._Doyne_Farmer

J. Doyne Farmer (born 22 June 1952) is an American complex systems scientist and entrepreneur with interests in chaos theory, complexity and econophysics. He is a Professor of Mathematics at Oxford University, where he is Director of the Complexity Economics at the Institute for New Economic Thinking at the Oxford Martin School, and is also an external professor at the Santa Fe Institute.

While still in graduate school, Farmer and his childhood friend Norman Packard formed a group called Eudaemonic Enterprises.[1] Their goal was to beat the game of roulette and use the proceeds to form a science commune .. [That's a whole other post]

After the roulette project Farmer switched his dissertation topic to chaotic dynamics and joined together with James P. Crutchfield, Norman Packard, and Robert Shaw to found the Dynamical Systems Collective (subsequently known by others as the Chaos Cabal)

And we know of Jeffrey Epstein's links to the Santa Fe Insititute. The Santa Fe Institute is known for its research into complex social systems and swarm theory. https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/2973511/16144347

Joshua Epstein (no relation to Jeffrey) is an expert on swarm theory and one of the things he's interested in is how to 'nudge' large groups of people into certain patterns of behaviour.

The swarm development group is dedicated to agent-based modelling https://twitter.com/swarmABM

At the Santa Fe Institute (SFI), we have here a conference where Joshua Epstein and J. Doyne Farmer attended as an example to show that they are work colleagues: Annual Applied Complexity Network and Board of Trustees Symposium: New Complexity Economics Speakers https://wiki.santafe.edu/index.php/Annual_Applied_Complexity_Network_and_Board_of_Trustees_Symposium:_New_Complexity_Economics_Speakers

On this page which is dedicated to collating articles which are agent -based modelling related we see the connections between Doyne Farmer, Joshua Epstein, Johns Hopkins, the financial sector, the Insitiute for New Economic Thinking, George Soros, the Santa Fe Institute, infectious disease outbeaks modelling >>

Agent-based Computational Economics News & Articles - https://www.altreva.com/ACE_news.html

Oxford Professor Doyne Farmer is working with central banks to improve stress testing using agent-based models.

June 2015, The renowned Institute for New Economic Thinking (founded in 2009 by George Soros and others as a result of the global financial crisis) has launched an Agent Based Modeling Working Group to model complex economic systems from the bottom-up.

January 2011, Simulating worst-case scenarios

Johns Hopkins University has launched the Center for Advanced Modeling (CAM) in the Social, Behavioral and Health Sciences. The center, led by professor Joshua Epstein, is aimed at research and applied work in the field of agent-based modeling for simulations that could help predict how societies will react to disasters such as infectious disease outbreaks, natural disasters or economic turmoil.

In the Journal of Virology : Quantitative Modeling of Virus Evolutionary Dynamics and Adaptation in Serial Passages Using Empirically Inferred Fitness Landscapes - https://jvi.asm.org/content/88/2/1039

We describe a stochastic virus evolution model representing genomic diversification and within-host selection during experimental serial passages under cell culture or live-host conditions. ..For parameter values representative of RNA viruses, the likelihood of observing adaptations during passages became negligible as the required number of mutations rose above two amino acid sites. We modeled the specific adaptation process of influenza A H5N1 viruses in mammalian hosts by simulating the evolutionary dynamics of H5 strains under the fitness landscape inferred from multiple sequence alignments of H3 proteins. 

(Interestingly, Dr. Tim Alefantis has been working on influenza A H5N1 viruses .. but I digress.)

Well , wonder boy Bill Gates is quickly coming up with solutions: To develop a coronavirus vaccine, synthetic biologists try to outdo nature https://www.statnews.com/2020/03/09/coronavirus-scientists-play-legos-with-proteins-to-build-next-gen-vaccine/

..With Gates and NIH funding, the emerging field of synthetic biology is answering the SOS over Covid-19, aiming to engineer vaccines that overcome these obstacles. ..

Even compared to the DNA and RNA vaccines against Covid-19 that Moderna Therapeutics, CureVac, and Inovio Pharmaceuticals are speeding toward human testing, the synbio approach has advantages. These companies’ experimental vaccines contain synthetic (that is, lab-made) strands of RNA or DNA that code for protein molecules on the virus’s surface. 

I've tried to explain (very badly here) the ties between the mathematical modelling Epstein was involved with at Harvard, the modelling of the financial markets as well as virus simulations, backed by people like George Soros and Bill Gates. More work to be done..
