When COVID cases climb
No one is prepared - It will be pandemonium

Right now COVID cases are down, everyone is thinking about Ukraine, and restrictions are falling, but it won’t stay that way. Testing capacity is now abundant, and vaccines and boosters are incapable of preventing covid’s eventual breakthrough. As time goes on, boosters effectiveness will further wane. Even some people who were initially infected with COVID early on will be susceptible to reinfection. Cases will again rise, and it will be ugly. Here are my suggestions:

Don’t test an asymptomatic person. Stop testing people who have no symptoms and advise people without symptoms not to test. People who feel ill should test if they wish, and people who seek medical care should, of course, be tested, but asymptomatic testing will be massively disruptive. The idea that asymptomatic testing can shield others from infection was never proven— it is still only bio-plausible. It can be directly interrogated with a study, but its downsides should be carefully examined, including disruption to health systems and other enterprises. ...

COVID19 cases will eventual rise. I don’t know when, but we are extremely vulnerable to an ill-formed and schizophrenic response. As we near midterm elections, politicians will be more volatile, and seek to control news that is seen as a threat to political fortunes. That’s the territory for bad decision making.


He thinks there will definitely be further waves and that we should NOT do all the stupid, dangerous, and ineffective things that Fauci pushed last time.

I don't care how Covid compliant you are. Sh*t like this makes zero sense.

So, Kyrie can go inside, not wear a mask, even hug a teammate, but HE CANNOT PLAY!

I don't get it, why? Does the ball have a weak immune system, what's going on?

I mean it's crazy, it's crazy, just think about it. Kyrie can't play but he can sit in the stands, like a fan.

When you've lost Trevor Noah, you know you have gone too far with your stupid Covid policies.

Better late than never, I guess.

Or consider another point I have emphasized in my series of articles and my video interviews. By February 2020, the headlines of the New York Times declared that Iran had become the world’s second epicenter of the Covid outbreak, with its political elites suffering very heavily. However, neither the Times nor almost any other Western media outlet ever reported that Iran’s government and media publicly accused America of having unleashed Covid as a biowarfare attack against their country and China, with Iran’s former president even filing an official complaint with the United Nations. Only our government-funded international propaganda outlet Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty took notice of those extremely serious Iranian allegations and dismissed them as absurd on the grounds that the Covid virus was known to be natural. But if Eban believes that the virus came from a lab, surely those original Iranian accusations would warrant a mention somewhere in her two articles, which total over 22,000 words and run some 65 pages.

NIH admits to suppressing COVID Gene Data
https://www.theepochtimes.com/nih-admits-it-suppressed-wuhan-lab-genetic-data-but-disputes-watchdogs-deleted-label_4376867.html?source=patrick.net&utm_source=share-btn-copylink

A National Institutes for Health (NIH) spokesperson is disputing a nonprofit watchdog group’s claim that the agency “deleted” genetic sequencing data on the CCP virus from a Chinese lab, but the same official acknowledged the data was “suppressed.”

“The headline says the sequences were deleted which is inaccurate. They were not deleted. This is a really important point, and I’ve highlighted what did happen from what we provided to you earlier this week,” NIH Media Branch Chief Amanda Fine told The Epoch Times in a March 31 email.

Fine was referring to a March 29 Epoch Times story headlined “NIH Deleted Info Received From Wuhan Lab on CCP Virus Genetic Sequencing, Watchdog’s FOIA Finds.” The information Fine referenced as having been provided to The Epoch Times by NIH earlier in the week was included in the published story:

“’In June 2020, in response to a request by the same [Wuhan] researcher, National Center for Biotechnology [NCBI] gave the sequence data the status of “withdrawn,” which removes sequencing data from all public means of access but does not delete them.

“‘NCBI subsequently reassigned the status of the sequence data to “suppressed,” which means that sequence data are removed from the search process but can be directly found by accession number. This action to reassign the data was identified as part of NLM’s ongoing review into the matter. We are working to make more information available,’ the spokesperson said.”

The biotechnology center, which is part of the institute’s National Library of Medicine (NLM), is the U.S. component of the International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration.

The Epoch Times story was prompted by a report published on March 29 by Empower Oversight Whistleblowers and Research (EO) that was based on Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) responses the group received from the institute.

“On June 5, 2020, a Wuhan University researcher requested that NIH retract the researcher’s submission of BioProject ID PRJNA637497 because of error. The Wuhan researcher explained ‘I’m sorry for my wrong submitting,'” Empower Oversight said in a statement (pdf) on March 29.

“BioProject ID PRJNA637497 is also referred to as Submission-ID SUB7554642. Three days later, on June 8th, the NIH declined the researcher’s request, advising that it prefers to edit or replace, as opposed to delete, sequences submitted to the SRA,” EO reported. SRA refers to the Sequence Read Archive (SRA) data resource made available by NCBI, and it “stores raw sequencing data.”

“But then, on June 16, 2020, NIH officials reversed themselves and deleted the genetic sequencing data, as requested by the Wuhan researcher. That researcher was quoted by EO as explaining to NIH: ‘Recently, I found that it’s hard to visit my submitted SRA data, and it would also be very difficult for me to update the data. I have submitted an updated version of this SRA data to another website, so I want to withdraw the old one at NCBI in order to avoid the data version issue.’

“After some discussion about what would be deleted, the NIH concluded the discussion by reassuring the Wuhan researcher that it ‘had withdrawn everything.’”

Asked for a response to Fine’s claim the information was not deleted, EO Founder and President Jason Foster told The Epoch Times that NIH’s actions ensure the CCP virus genetic sequencing info is only available to the few individuals possessing its “accession number,” which effectively deletes the data from open access and research.

“NIH documents released with Empower Oversight’s report demonstrate that the sequencing data was deleted from public view by the NIH at the request of the Wuhan researcher,” Foster said.

Masturbation cures pretty much anything.

Ah yes, Mr. Vandervelde, but that’s not the point is it. They needed a quick and easy way to fake an election, create inflation, destroy small businesses and spoil the education of a generation of innocent children. Oh and let’s not forget mandate biological terrorism. Yeah, they created perhaps the biggest hoax in human history (so far). Now I do believe that the virus is real, and some people did die from their infections, but it was not a level of virility that required extraordinary measures. In fact the places that locked down the strictest are now seeing surges in cases proving that lockdowns only delay the inevitable. The virus was endemic by spring/summer of 2020 and should have been managed like any endemic infectious disease, with reasonable precautions and targeted quarantines of the infected and vulnerable.

I'd check his numbers on the number of people that died on pneumonia and influenza in 2018. Not saying they are wrong, but to me they seem to be wrong.

By Dr. Michael Yeadon via Doctors for Covid Ethics

The Covid Lies – Doctors for COVID Ethics (doctors4covidethics.org)

In this comprehensive review, Dr. Yeadon argues that all the main narratives about SARS-CoV-2 and imposed “measures” are lies.

In the first part of the article (The Covid Lies), Dr. Yeadon counters the 12 widespread Covid narratives with the following arguments:

The infection fatality rate of SARS-CoV-2 is 0.1 – 0.3%, which is not significantly different from some seasonal influenza epidemics.
Based on the peer-reviewed articles, at least 30 to 50% of the population has prior cross-immunity.
SARS-CoV-2 does discriminate. “The lethality of this virus, as is common with respiratory viruses, is 1000X less in young, healthy people than in elderly people with multiple comorbidities.”
Asymptomatic transmission is the “central conceptual deceit” used to “underscore almost every intrusion: masking, mass testing, lockdowns, border restrictions, school closures, even vaccine passports.”
PCR test is “the central operational deceit.”
Neither cloth nor surgical masks prevent respiratory virus transmission.
Lockdown is “epidemiologically irrelevant” and never works. “Only “stay home if you’re sick” works.“
“Covid-19 is the most treatable respiratory viral illness ever”. Safe and effective early treatments are available.
Based on the peer-reviewed articles, very few clinically significant reinfections of SARS-Cov-2 have ever been confirmed.
SARS-CoV-2 mutates slowly, and no variant is even close to escaping naturally-acquired immunity. However, there is the possibility that the so-called vaccines prevent the establishment of immune memory, leading to the repeated infections, which would be a form of acquired immune deficiency.
Safety is the top priority in a public health mass intervention, even more than effectiveness. “It was NEVER appropriate to attempt to “end the pandemic” with a novel technology vaccine.”
The four gene-based “vaccines” are toxic. The basic rules of selecting vaccine candidates are: 1) the agent has no inherent biological action (non-toxic); 2) the agent should be the genetically most stable part of the virus; 3) the agent should be most different from human proteins. Spike protein as the vaccine does not fit any of the above criteria.

these are the people whose covid responses the whole world threw away 100 years of evidence based pandemic guidelines to copy and cheer-lead for in 2020.

still feeling good about that decision?

He's right, the Chinese response was STUPID in the extreme, but his sentence construction is awful. Should be more like this:

"The whole world threw away 100 years of evidence-based pandemic guidelines to copy and cheer-lead for the covid responses of these people."

Fuck Hawaii!

Remain calm. They have been fully open for business since March.
Proof of vaccination and a negative COVID-19 test won’t be needed for domestic travelers as of March 26 to enter the state, Gov. David Ige announced March 1. The quarantine requirement is also ending for travelers without vaccine proof or a negative test.

I got it a couple of weeks ago. It was the 5th or 6th worse cold I ever had.

It started with weakness. I had a date with the wife but cancelled. The next morning I had a splitting headache, tinnitus, burning eyes and no energy. Day two was almost as bad. I tested positive with an at home rapid test and was barred from work for the week. I slept in the guest room to protect my wife who has not got it, yet.

By day four I could have gone back to work with DayQuil, even though it no longer contains pseudoephedrine. I took the week off.

The Wuhan was different from any cold I ever had before. Mostly in my head but I did have congestion and diarrhea. Everything tasted bad.

In my opinion it was not worth shutting the world over this lab created disease. The perpetrators need to be prosecuted.

@Heraclitusstudent Are you still with us?

The Wuhan is a killer. Hope it did not get you.

SARS-2 surges only in the winter, goes endemic after two waves, is impervious to vaccination, and has become harmless with Omicron
A brief look at the Corona pandemic in Europe from the perspective of excess mortality

A lot of the Corona data we’re fed is essentially meaningless propaganda, and it has obscured crucial patterns. Here, I want to look at the only metric that really matters, namely excess mortality, to make some basic points about what has happened to us since 2020, and what is happening now.

To date, the pandemicists have counted five or six waves of infection. If you ignore the case statistics, though, and look at nothing but European excess mortality, you see a totally different picture. Corona only has one deadly season a year, namely the winter, and no European country has seen more than two winter mortality spikes. ...

It’s definitely Omicron, and not the vaccines, that stopped the deaths. The same pattern exists in Austria, which is slightly less heavily vaccinated than Germany; and also in Hungary and Slovenia, which are substantially less vaccinated. ...

In Europe, Corona kills people for two seasons, and then it becomes a nothingburger, no worse than seasonal influenza in a bad year. You see exactly the same picture in England – two mortality waves, and then it’s over...

In most countries, the two-wave mortality surge was over by the time the vaccines were rolled out; in central Europe, it was still raging, but it was Omicron and not the vaccines that stopped the deaths.
