A decorated scientist with four degrees from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology believes the coronavirus pandemic is being used by the “Deep State” for its own purposes.
Shiva Ayyadurai said on Twitter that “fear-mongering” over the outbreak is being used to push an agenda.
“As an MIT PhD in Biological Engineering who studies & does research nearly every day on the Immune System, the #coronavirus fear mongering by the Deep State will go down in history as one of the biggest fraud to manipulate economies, suppress dissent, & push MANDATED Medicine!” he said.
It is important to note that Ayyadurai did not say the disease is man-made or a hoax.
You should follow the guidelines from doctors, federal, state and local governments and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Yes, but it is also suppressing dissent against Trump, so it is BACKFIRING!
Shiva Ayyadurai did not kill himself..................yet...............
This is about the 4th article posted about the “inventor of email”. Zero credibility...he’s a publicity hound.
There are some who attempt to suppress dissent here (;-)
... well, he doesn’t have any dirt on the Clintons....
Useless hack. He is a right wing troll.
Did he email his findings?
He's nuts.
Clintons
In
Action......................
Maybe, but he’s got 4 more degrees from MIT than you or anybody else here has.
The truth is out there somewhere.
LOL!

Wow..i came to the conclusion weeks ago and i didn’t even graduate from HS.
I see you're a critical thinker. :-) After the second article about this guy I went and googled him myself. He's a publicity hound politician-wanna-be also.
He's proof that just because someone has four degrees that doesn't mean they're not a crackpot.
I need to look in the mirror every day and fog it to be sure I am not dead yet.
The truth is in every press conference...almost daily now...that President Trump and vp Pence do. It's a real threat and we are going to beat it as a country.
That right there is the most likely scenario.
Having used email on DEC 10 systems back in 1975 when this guy was 12, his claim to have invented it sounded like a joke to me.
And it is. He apparently wrote an in-house email server at his mom’s teaching hospital in late ‘79 and then copyrighted it under the name “EMAIL” in ‘82.
So when he says he invented EMAIL, he’s not talking about it generically...he’s talking about his own little program that he wrote in high school. Which is an exercise for lots of comp sci majors anyway, but he did it in HS, so he sees it as a big deal...but it’s just a joke on everyone else.
Shiva Ayyadurai is a crank and publicity hound who claims he invented email.
Our Legal Dispute With Shiva Ayyadurai Is Now Over
May 17, 2019
https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20190516/22284042229/our-legal-dispute-with-shiva-ayyadurai-is-now-over.shtml
It’s possible that some of you saw the news earlier this week that the legal dispute, in which Shiva Ayyadurai sued us for defamation over 14 posts on Techdirt, has been settled. Many people — including lawyers I know — had been under the impression that this case ended a long time ago, but it has actually continued for nearly two and a half years. As you may recall, back in September of 2017, the district court dismissed the case, largely on First Amendment grounds, saying that everything we wrote about Ayyadurai was protected speech. Unfortunately, the court did not accept our argument that California’s anti-SLAPP law should apply, which would have allowed us to recover our legal fees.
Ayyadurai appealed this dismissal, and we cross-appealed the anti-SLAPP question. For the past 18 months, we have held ongoing negotiations to settle the case, which concluded with the announcement earlier this week. The settlement is that we agreed to add links on the articles at issue, to a statement on one of Ayyadurai’s sites that he says is a response to our articles. No money exchanged hands. We found the terms of this settlement acceptable, as basically all of our posts were linking to and responding to Ayyadurai’s claims in the first place, so, if he wants to repeat those claims, he is more than free to do so. We have no interest in silencing anyone. We continue to stand by everything that we wrote about those claims, and suggest that you read our posts as well.
You may wonder how it could possibly take 18 months to negotiate a settlement about adding links to old articles — and, indeed, I wonder that myself. The entire process has been quite a pain for us. I cannot and would not describe this result as a victory, because this has been nearly two and a half years of wasted time, effort, resources, attention and money just to defend our right to report on a public figure and explain to the world that we do not believe his claims to have invented email are correct, based on reams of evidence.
During those 18 months, we stopped all the fundraising we had done around the lawsuit, as, for nearly all of that time, it did appear that a settlement was close, and we did not wish to mislead anyone into believing that we were raising money on the premise that our continued existence was in grave danger only to settle the case immediately after doing so. We did not, in any way, expect this process to drag out this long, and we now have significant legal and other bills that we still have to pay. We are glad the lawsuit is done, but we now need to ask for your support. If we are able to raise more than our bills, any excess will go towards our ongoing reporting. If you would prefer to support us in other ways — including via Patreon or in exchange for t-shirts and other merch, all the various options are available to check out here.
We are glad this chapter is behind us, and we have a bunch of other plans that we’ve been working on, which we hope we can now focus on without this major distraction.
The government and or the deep state is not that competent.
