The new mask recommendations are a disgraceful debacle, doomed to fail...again

As soon as politicians, media members and incompetent and terrified “experts” became ideologically committed to ineffective interventions, they could never end.

The CDC has been the most reliable and consistent contributor to destructive and functionally useless mask recommendations. They’ve used unconscionably bad, dangerously incompetent and misleading “studies,” along with hilariously useless “hairdresser” examples to “prove” mask efficacy. Finally though, after throwing out their own pre-pandemic planning documents to promote a policy with no demonstrable benefits, the CDC displayed confidence in the “safe and effective” vaccines and removed their useless mask guidelines just two and a half months ago.

And yet. It’s all happening. The CDC flip flopped again. Masks are back.

Many of us arguing against lockdowns and masks and other related and equally ineffective “mitigations” have been pointing out for months now that the CDC has been unbelievably bad at their literal one job. We’ve been pointing out that the CDC’s credibility has been irreparably damaged based on their demonstrable incompetence and ever changing messaging with unchanging certainty. But no one, and I mean no one, could have foreseen that the death blow to the CDC’s credibility would come from the CDC itself.

I guess it shouldn’t be as surprising as it is that they put the final nail in their own coffin, but somehow their devotion to pseudoscience never ceases to amaze.

Bringing back masks is the end. It has to be. They were unequivocal in their assertions that the available vaccines were remarkably effective at preventing infections and transmission, symptomatic illness, severe cases and ultimately deaths.

Yesterday’s announcement is completely incompatible with their previous statements and should be an inescapable disaster for the country’s trust in “public health” and what the CDC, Fauci and others laughably refer to as “science.”

So let’s go over this unfolding debacle!

April 1
INTELLIGENCER HEADLINE: “CDC Data Suggests Vaccinated Don’t Carry, Can’t Spread Virus”
Got that? No hemming and hawing, no uncertainty, no “don’t spread the virus as much,” it literally says that the vaccinated CAN NOT SPREAD THE VIRUS. CAN NOT. It’s not possible for them to spread it, that’s what the “data” says.

Here’s a direct quote from the CDC director, Dr. Rochelle Walensky:

“Vaccinated people do not carry the virus — they don’t get sick,” Dr. Rochelle Walensky, director of the CDC, told MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow on Tuesday. That’s “not just in the clinical trials, but it’s also in real-world data.”

They do not carry the virus and do not get sick. Focus on the “they do not carry the virus” part for a second. If vaccinated people can’t carry it, how can they spread it?

They can’t! That’s what the CDC says:

Walensky was referring to a new CDC study that suggests those fully inoculated with the vaccines produced by Moderna and Pfizer don’t transmit the virus.

So naturally,

“The authorized vaccines are the key tool that will help bring an end to this devastating pandemic.”

They are the key tool. Masks used to be, of course, but now vaccines will end the pandemic. Let’s keep that in mind. ...

July 27
CNBC Headline: “CDC reverses indoor mask policy, saying fully vaccinated people and kids should wear them indoors”
There it is. The destruction of any remaining shreds of credibility the CDC and Fauci had left.

So what was the justification for this dramatic shift? The delta variant! The same variant that Fauci said the vaccines did “very well” against. ...

Oregon Senators Call for Investigation Into Alleged COVID-19 Statistical Manipulation
BY TAMMY HUNG October 12, 2021

Oregon state Sens. Kim Thatcher and Dennis Linthicum, both Republicans, have petitioned Acting U.S. Attorney Scott E. Asphaug to launch a grand jury investigation into the measurement of COVID-19 statistics by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Thatcher and Linthicum submitted the petition in a letter (pdf) on Aug. 16 after gathering signatures from 1,718 Oregonians and 53,032 Americans.

In the petition, the senators expressed concerns over the measurement and reporting of COVID-19 vaccine adverse reactions including fatalities and injuries.

The lawmakers stated that a whistleblower, under sworn testimony, said the data reported under the CDC’s Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System may have been underreported by a factor of five.

Regarding the diagnosis of COVID-19 through widely-used PCR tests, the senators said that the CDC and the FDA’s setting of one particular test parameter—the cycle threshold—generated “false positives resulting in inflated numbers of COVID cases, hospitalizations, and deaths.”

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has again refused to release emails between the Director of the Immunization Safety Office, Dr. Frank DeStefano, and some of the largest vaccine manufacturers in the world, claiming that these communications are privileged because they reflect “the decision-making process of government agencies.”

Because federal law protects vaccine companies from being sued for vaccine injuries, the CDC’s Immunization Safety Office is supposed to play a central role in ensuring the safety of these liability-free products - not engage in agency decision-making with these companies!

Hey - does anybody else get the weird feeling that we all heard these "conspiracy theories" before like, "The CDC is actually a private corporation!" or "The Federal Reserve isn't part of the government - it's a PRIVATE bank!!" - etc, to realize we all dismissed these crazy claims, and repeatedly have heard authorities dismiss them as crazy claims, only to find out they are, actually, true?

Seems like the world is falling apart because the curtain hiding the wizard has been pulled back finally. Of course, the world isn't falling apart, we're just seeing how everything is a scam and how it's ALWAYS been a scam..

Why haven't they updated the 'Definition of Terms' for 'Vaccine' to read: a preparation injected through seduction, lies, coercion and/or mass extralegal threats/intimidation, designed to genetically alter, kill or disable as many people as possible with the greatest profitable return to the company that manufactured them and their government proxies? They obviously don't have any concern at all about keeping up with the science.

The CDC and the FDA have unleashed a set of untested vaccines on the public that have been shown to produce alarmingly high rates of adverse reactions, both disabling and leading to death. The CDC’s VAERS system for reporting all that is so janky that doctors can barely use it and the CDC refuses to fix it; meanwhile doctors are being punished for even attempting to report adverse reactions. The whole of medical officialdom has militated aggressively against early treatments of Covid-19 with cheap and easily available drugs, even firing doctors who attempt to use the protocols.

The entire approval process of the various vaccines has been rife with fraud, gamed statistics, sabotaged trials, bait-and-switch scams, and unaccountable manufacturing screw-ups — all immersed in a stench of moneygrubbing. The drug companies have refused to fully reveal the contents of the vaccines. Now they are ramping up an urgent campaign to vaccinate children following rushed and falsified clinical trials, with the statistical certainty that many more kids will be injured or will die from the vax than they would from Covid-19 itself.

Citizens have a right to object to this, and to the illegal vaccine “mandate” invoked by the pugnaciously stupid “Joe Biden” regime. There is an awful creeping suspicion in the USA and in other countries that people who have received vaccinations are beginning to present fatal cardiovascular and neurological illness in large numbers, and that an attempt is underway to cover all this up. There is likewise a growing body of evidence that the vaccines and “boosters” incrementally disable the human immune system so that later in the winter of 2021-2022 millions of people will be at risk of dying from Covid variants and virtually any other disease that comes along, including cancers. How many of us are prepared for that?

not “8000 deaths and 38,000 hospitalizations.”

1% of that in one year, especially in young people, would have pulled any other vaccine in US history off the market.
this is WHY we trust vaccines to be safe.

because up until now, they were.

there was such trust in vaccines BECAUSE they were so thoroughly tested and held to such extraordinary standards. to give something to 100’s of millions of people, it needs to be.

that trust is being savagely abused though the slippery false equivalence of “past vaccines were safe. this is a vaccine. so this is safe.”

True. Vaccines would have been pointless if they did not stop you from catching, carrying, or spreading the disease.

Polio is a true vaccine that stops the inoculated from getting Polio at all, while even the CDC admits that the Pfizer/Moderna jabs provide no protection against catching or spreading Covid.

https://technofog.substack.com/p/cdc-emails-our-definition-of-vaccine

Getting no response, there was a follow-up e-mail a week later: “The definition of vaccine we have posted is problematic and people are using it to claim the COVID-19 vaccine is not a vaccine based on our own definition.” ...

The change of the “vaccination” definition was eventually approved on August 31. The next day, on September 1, they approved the change to the “vaccine” definition from discussing immunity to protection (seen below).




There you have it. Affirmative action for the multinational corporations. Why have them improve their vaccines when you can just change the definition of vaccine to fit their ineffective vaccines?

Congrats to all the skeptics out there – you raised enough hell that the the CDC went and tried to change reality.

So here is what blows my mind: We are living in a world where the CDC director can say something that is false, made-up and no institution will say otherwise. At the same time, major, venerable fact checking institutions are literally asserting as fact something which is at best unproven.

No matter how you feel about these issues; these are dangerous times. Truth and falsehood is not a matter of science but cultural power— the ability to proclaim and define the truth. If this continues, dark times lie ahead. Someday soon, we may not like who defines the truth.

Ramifications of calling conjectures facts

    * Claims that mislead the patient taxpayer are unhelpful and the public will eventually distrust scientific claims into other fields.
    * Uncorrected or unfounded assertions jeopardize science beyond a singular field, especially since there is mounting distrust in higher education in general.
    * Condescending comments toward the public (or a student), if they will not embrace our conjectures as facts, will lead to continued division between scientists and nonscientists, which can yield public reluctance to fund our research.
    * We must tell the truth with specificity. If it is a fact, say it. If it is not a fact, say it.
    * Blackballing scientists if they bear legitimate non-conformist views, by excluding them from professional societies and academies, withholding their funding or denying them tenure, is anti-scientific and it will retard the advancement of science.

Story at-a-glance:

Recent data from the U.K. Office of National Statistics reveals people who have been double jabbed against COVID-19 are dying from all causes at a rate six times higher than the unvaccinated.
In the U.S., meanwhile, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is propping up the official narrative with two manipulated studies — one suggesting the jab reduces all-cause mortality, and another claiming the shot is five times more protective than natural immunity.
Both studies are of questionable quality and have several problems, including selection of time and date ranges that allow them to pretend that the COVID shots are safer and more effective than they really are.
According to all-cause mortality statistics, the number of Americans who died between January 2021 and August 2021 is 16% higher than 2018 (the pre-COVID year with the highest all-cause mortality) and 18% higher than the average death rate between 2015 and 2019.
Did COVID-19 raise the death toll despite mass vaccination, or are people dying at increased rates because of the COVID jabs?

https://www.naturalnews.com/2021-11-10-covid-negative-patients-overwhelming-hospitals-ade.html


(Natural News) The mainstream media is stumped about the hordes of sick and dying patients that are now swarming American hospitals.

According to the talking-heads, these people do not have the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) because many of them are “fully vaccinated,” so the whole thing is a “mystery,” they claim.

Since the jabs are “safe and effective,” there is no explanation for this latest crisis. It must just be a coincidence, right?

“ERs are now swamped with seriously ill patients – but many don’t even have covid,” reported Michigan Radio.

NPR also relayed the story, pretending as though there is no connection between this sudden spike in hospitalizations immediately following Joe Biden’s jab mandates.

As we reported, there are barely any hospital beds remaining as the completely jabbed flood their local ICUs. ...

Covid jabs are clearly and obviously what’s making people sick

The situation is much the same in Australia, where some of the worst Chinese Flu fascism has been thrust on the people in the name of “public health.”

ABC in Australia reported that hospitals across the country are “under pressure.” The same media outlet is blaming the surge on the “Delta (variant) threat.”

“Australian hospitals are already overwhelmed and falling behind, even with the ‘once-in-a-generation’ slowdown in patient numbers that came with COVID-19,” the media outlet reported, citing a report from medical authorities.

“According to the report, the number of patients leaving the emergency departments within four hours dropped to 69 per cent, its worst level since 2012-13.”

Australian Premier Mark McGowan gave a press conference recently in which he pretended not to know why fully vaccinated Australians are getting sick and dying in record numbers.

“This has been something that no one has ever seen before,” McGowan said. “Why it is, is hard to know, except that there is some evidence that it’s some sort of delayed reaction to ‘covid.'”

“But there are a huge number of people coming through the doors and we’re doing everything we can to try and manage it,” he added. “In particular, in the budget, we allocated another $1.9 billion for additional staff – doctors, nurses and the like.”

McGowan further revealed that an additional $3.1 billion was allocated for “new capital works” – because redistributing taxpayer money to pet projects is the government’s way of “curing” mystery diseases.

Sweden, which rejected most of the plandemic tyranny but still brought in the “Operation Warp Speed” jabs, is likewise seeing a “record month” in hospitalizations.

It would appear as though the fully jabbed in that country are experiencing antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) or some other cocktail of complications caused by the injections.

“It will be interesting to look at what this is about,” said Johan Björk, the head of an emergency room in Jönköping that is being overwhelmed with sick patients. “Research will certainly be done on this.”

“So, if it’s not covid and it seems to be an outbreak, what else has changed in, oh, say, the last 12 months?” asked one commenter at Information Liberation.

“Heck, I will give you a guess: it is usually plastic with a very sharp point with a chemical inside.”

Jordan Peterson says he spoke to a senior government adviser who told him Canada’s COVID restriction policies are completely driven by opinion polls and not science.

“In relation to the COVID restrictions, I talked to a senior adviser to one of the provincial governments a couple of weeks ago,” said Peterson.

“He told me flat out that the COVID policy here is driven by nothing but opinion polls related to the popularity of the government,” he added.

“No science, no endgame in sight, no real plan, and so what that means is that the part of the population that is most afraid of COVID,” are driving the policy.

Peterson pointed to figures that prove people vastly exaggerate the risk of being hospitalized by COVID due to relentless government fearmongering campaigns.

regulators have been consumed by covid monomania and every other area of medical endeavor is suffering as a result ...

the FDA (and other health regulators) have gone on weird, fundamentalist covidian pilgrimages at the expense of literally everything else.

facilities remain uninspected. trials are not getting approved. ongoing and planned clinical trails are failing or being postponed because the endless circus of randomly rotating regulations make it impossible to enroll and follow up patients and increasingly because the FDA refuses to provide the comments and engagement on study and submission design integral to a successful process. ...

this used to run quite well. frankly, under gottlieb, the FDA was truly a gold standard organization and they hit their dates well while providing high quality review and striking a good balance of working with companies on their projects while demanding good study design and requiring sound endpoints and data.

since scott left mid term in april of 2019 to “spend more time with his family” the FDA has been in a downspiral. his departure itself was deeply odd. you basically never see a mid-term resignation, especially from such a popular and effective leader. ...




this is not a make believe game played for goldfish crackers, this is the engine of medical advancement and it has been idled so that we can chase nothing but covid and push massive new products of dubious utility (to the unprecedented profit of a few big companies) while the rest of the industry gets plowed under.

this will, of course, wind up benefiting the big pharma companies a second time as all the stranded assets will be cheap to acquire. (oh, did you think this would be a one act play? not likely.) ...

the FDA seems to have become a wholly owned subsidiary of “covid inc” a public private collaboration of crony capitalism and political preferencing. this is going to pay nasty dividends for a long time to come.

keep one thing in mind:

it was not covid that did this. it was covid policy.

this was a choice.

At this point, I think it is clear: many pandemic experts hurt children.

School closure was the greatest self inflicted wound of the pandemic. Sensible European nations did not close primary school at all, or only for 6 weeks, but places in the USA remained closed for more than a year. This was a net negative for the health and well-being of children, and will damage this nation for years to come. I am not sure we will recover.

This decision was made only in some places in the USA, and not others, and was not explained by virus specific properties— it had no correlation with cases/100k or hospitalizations per capita—but solely the political valence of a region/ strength of teachers unions. When the history books are written, school closure will be viewed, as I have said before: a massively catastrophic and harmful blunder that was fueled by mis-information from the legacy media, and many pundits who lacked experience adjudicating trade-offs.

But the experts did not stop with closure. To this day, children suffer some of the harshest restrictions. In many parts of the USA, including school districts in California, school kids must wear cloth masks inside and outside (Nov 2021). During recess, and in inclement weather (rain). In some locations, they must eat lunch outside, in a hurry (time limits), or in the cold.
