VISIT the Centers for Disease Control website’s weekly update on deaths from Covid-19, flu and pneumonia and you will find a glaring statistical anomaly.

For the week ending on May 21, the total for all deaths from these three diseases is reported as 136,869. The breakdown is listed as the following: 88,578 deaths from pneumonia, 6,247 from flu and 71,339.

Do the math. That brings us to a total of 166,164 — close to 30,000 more than the reported total on the same page. (Thanks to Chuck Baldwin for this find.)

How could such an obvious inconsistency be overlooked by the statisticians at the federal agency?

Easily. This would not be the first time it has played with numbers.

As reported in the 2007 book by journalist Torsten Engelbrecht and Claus Köhnlein, MD, Virus Mania: How the Medical Industry Continually Invents Epidemics, Making Billion-Dollar Profits at Our Expense (Trafford Publishing), during the so-called AIDS epidemic of the 1980s, the CDC produced similar weekly updates. The updates “deliberately” underestimated the percentage of drug addicts among the afflicted. Even worse, the agency declared that a constellation of symptoms was caused by a contagious agent based on what CDC officer Bruce Evatt said was “almost no evidence.”

Published 13 years ago, Virus Mania, written originally in German and translated into English by Megan Chapellas and Danielle Eagan, is highly relevant to the Covid Scandal and I am surprised — take that back, I am not surprised — that more journalists are not referring to it now. This readable, lucidly written examination of what the authors maintain is a serious tendency to overestimate the power of viruses, a tendency driven by profit motives, will help you view our latest mania in the context of modern history. The authors focus on six epidemics: AIDS, Avian Flu, SARS, Cervical Cancer (HPV), Mad Cow Disease, Hepatitis C and polio. The popular narrative of all of these is highly questionable. They also mention others along the way, including the famous Spanish Flu of 1918, reported to have killed 550,000 in the U.S. The Spanish Flu has never been proven to have been caused by a virus: Read More »

BIG BROTHER WANTS US AT HOME

By Miles Christi

(This is an automatic translation. If you understand Spanish, I advise you to read the original article.)

Stay home, we leave you out of work and bankrupt your company, the one that took you so many years to create.

Stay home, we decide for you what time you can go out and under what conditions.

Stay home, even if you don’t have money to buy food.

Stay home, even if your mother has a few years to live and she needs you.

Stay at home, and do not see your grandchildren because they may infect you.

Stay home, but keep paying taxes even if you don’t generate income.

Stay home while we release prisoners. Read More »

I spent this weekend traveling to my state’s Capitol based on social media rumors that “the biggest rally yet” would occur on Saturday. Based on my previous experience with here-now, gone-later “protests” in my home city, I had mental reservations that I would come to a city with empty streets.

Fortunately, I was wrong.

The Capitol Mall of Sacramento was absolutely teeming with people. Majority of them were Trump supporters, and although I have my doubts regarding his sincerity or ability to affect any change, what mattered more to me was the fact that perhaps thousands from around the state have cast off the 24/7 relentless programming of the Establishment regarding the “new normal” of this “killer” disease.

Another reservation that I had was that this was not a truly grassroots rally. Indeed, the event had set up a podium with scheduled speakers and was sponsored by a group called the Freedom Angels. While there was a police presence, there were no riot cops and the officers present were few in number and benign towards all the attendees. The attendees also respected their boundaries. No one practiced social distancing and no police attempted to enforce it. Does this mean that the rally is “fake?” Maybe so, or maybe the rank and file of this formerly great state are beginning to relent.

For my part, I attended because I wanted to protest the evil, inhuman, satanic and pseudoscientific practice of social distancing. One of the speakers said that social distancing was a euphemism for social isolation, and was developed by the CIA as a means of psychological abuse.

In so many words, when I was asked by independent interviewers, my reply was, “I just want hugs and handshakes to return.”

I thought I would send you an update on one person’s battle against the lies that are openly being perpetrated throughout the world. It is sickening, but not surprising, that our leaders continue to perpetrate the COVID scam, as it has benefited them well in their lust for power.

I appreciate your links to Ron Paul’s videos. My brother has been a Ron Paul fan for years, and I hadn’t educated myself enough to realize how cogent Dr. Paul’s arguments are until recently.  His words, and those of others who cherish their freedom, have emboldened me in this daily conflict of ideologies.  It is not about a virus, it is all about control.  I will not go down lightly.

On the front lines, I am taking a stand against the COVID nonsense wherever I confront it. I am speaking out publicly to anyone who will listen (and even some who don’t), in order to gracefully but firmly present another perspective besides the one proclaimed 24/7 on TV, radio, and all mass media.  It is not hard to stand up against the hoax, but it does require a firm resolve.

HUNDREDS of doctors have signed a letter to Pres. Trump expressing alarm over the health toll of the ongoing virus shutdowns and calling for a resumption of normal life. The group was led by Dr. Simone Gold, an emergency medicine specialist in Los Angeles who has started an organization of doctors opposed to the shutdowns. A Republican public relations firm reportedly helped publicize the letter.

The letter states that heart disease, alcoholism, undetected cancer, child abuse, various other diseases, depression and suicide have all increased dramatically as a result of the closures. (Sad, that the letter describes “unplanned pregnancies” as among the negative consequences.) The doctors said the shutting down of schools and universities is “incalculably detrimental … for years to come.” Read More »

GOV. TOM WOLF of Pennsylvania is among those (Democratic) governors who have promoted Covid junk science and implemented economic and social tyranny with a zealotry that suggests a personality deeply suited to the sick thrills of dictatorship. And that’s what this man is — a petty dictator not a leader implementing the public good and protecting public health.

In the latest news, as he continues to keep Pennsylvanians incarcerated in their homes in a state of manufactured fear, Wolf scolds residents who might want to go to the New Jersey beaches (they have just reopened) for Memorial Weekend.

Here is Big Mommy Wolf:

“I wouldn’t go to the beach,” Wolf said during a video news conference in response to a question about whether he was concerned that beach-going would create a rise in coronavirus cases in the Philadelphia region. “There are people there who aren’t wearing masks, and you’re putting yourself at risk. I wouldn’t do that, I haven’t done that, and I’m not sure why the governors of Maryland and New Jersey have opened their beaches, but they have.”

I have not seen a single image of Big Bad Wolf in a mask, have you? He goes around putting people at risk with potentially lethal exhalations every day. But masks are for the little people. Our major politicians know how intrinsically humiliating and unnecessary they are so they don’t wear them.

Look, if a person believes something so absurd as the notion that a man can become a woman (Rachel Levine, Wolf’s “health” commissar, pictured above, is a man, not a woman, and no lipstick, hairdo or falsies can ever cover up this fact), can he really be relied upon for medical advice?

In reality, what Mr. Wolf suggests is absolutely false. Healthy people should be going everywhere mask-less and without fear in order to promote public health. They should be trying to catch the virus even, which has no serious affect on the vast majority, so that we can obtain natural “herd” immunity and thereby protect the vulnerable. (See here and here for an overview of the medical science of Covid.) They should get out and boost their own immunities with sunshine and fresh air — without distancing themselves at all from other human beings in the perverted style cooked up by arrogant social engineers lacking in normal human empathy.

Wolf and Levine, a man in drag who doesn’t know the basics of biology, are dangerous, psychologically disturbed fanatics spreading medical superstition and wrecking lives.

They should be impeached, fired and charged with criminal fraud and obstruction of justice. They are not merely misguided. They are crooks.

THE MICHIGAN Department of Health has taken the license away of a 77-year-old barber who reopened his business in defiance of lockdown rules. This is truly pathetic.

All these government strong-arm tactics are political cover. They make it seem as if the virus is the boogeyman or “invisible enemy” “experts” say it is.

But let me ask you something.

Why does a barber need a license in the first place? Is it really so dangerous to cut hair that it needs to be regulated by the state?

The cards are stacked in a million ways against anyone attempting a small business. Pretty soon Amazon will figure out a way to deliver haircuts to your door and barbers will be extinct.

WOULD you like to help others understand Covid-19 in the face of overwhelming, false propaganda?

I know, the odds are slim because most people are unwilling to face the traumatizing possibility that they have been misled, but it’s worth trying to reduce the paranoia, frustration and depression that is rampant in areas still under extreme restrictions. To that end, consider making a print-out of all or part of this list, “Facts about Covid-19,” provided by Swiss Propaganda Research.

Include the url to the SPR site so that recipients can access the excellent source links. (Alternately, make a list of the links at the end. The sources are especially important.) Consider handing a print-out to clerks at supermarkets, hardware stores, big box stores and placing one in neighbors’ mailboxes.

I was going to compile a list myself, but I don’t think I could improve on this, except for the mention of Edward Snowden. (Also, I would add that U.S. hospitals receive $13,000 for each Covid patient and $39,000 for each patient put on a ventilator.) Here is the list, dated May 6, 2020 (it will be updated):

1. According to data from the best-studied countries and regions, the lethality of Covid-19 is on average about 0.2%, which is in the range of a severe influenza (flu) and about twenty times lower than originally assumed by the WHO.

2.Even in the global “hotspots”, the risk of death for the general population of school and working age is typically in the range of a daily car ride to work. The risk was initially overestimated because many people with only mild or no symptoms were not taken into account.

3.Up to 80% of all test-positive persons remain symptom-free. Even among 70-79 year olds, about 60% remain symptom-free. Over 95% of all persons show mild symptoms at most.

4.Up to one third of all persons already have a certain background immunity to Covid-19 due to contact with previous coronaviruses (i.e. common cold viruses).

5.The median or average age of the deceased in most countries (including Italy) is over 80 years and only about 1% of the deceased had no serious preconditions. The age and risk profile of deaths thus essentially corresponds to normal mortality.

6.In most Western countries, 50 to 70% of all extra deaths occurred in nursing homes, which do not benefit from a general lockdown. Moreover, in many cases it is not clear whether these people really died from Covid-19 or from extreme stress, fear and loneliness. Read More »

“THE masks that the compliant citizenry wears, makes them faceless and nameless. That’s is what the tyrants hope for, dehumanizing us. Nameless and faceless devilish men and women behind the scenes trample our constitutional rights and they get away by unaccountability and invisibility, distancing themselves from the constituents. But when they make the citizenry avoid each other and make laws to separate us, it is tyranny. To them, we are faceless, nameless, and invisible as individuals with Divine Rights.”

YET ANOTHER expert comes forward and disputes the wearing of face masks. Dr. Russell Blaylock writes:

“Researchers found that about a third of the workers developed headaches with use of the mask, most had preexisting headaches that were worsened by the mask wearing, and 60% required pain medications for relief. As to the cause of the headaches, while straps and pressure from the mask could be causative, the bulk of the evidence points toward hypoxia and/or hypercapnia as the cause. That is, a reduction in blood oxygenation (hypoxia) or an elevation in blood C02 (hypercapnia). Read More »

A READER from Maryland writes:

A man I knew died recently under sad, but now common, circumstances. His large, senior-living facility closed its doors to all visitors, depriving him of the personal touch of his loved ones. Not only did the lockdowns prevent his relatives from traveling out-of-state to see him, his daughter and grandchildren who lived only a few miles away could not visit him daily, as they had been doing. Instead, they spoke with him every day on the telephone, and the only people he saw during his final weeks wore masks and gloves. Although the nurses and assistants might have been very kind to him, nonetheless, I would venture to say he died of loneliness.

I don’t believe that doctors foresaw the inhumanity of forbidding all visitors to patients in nursing homes and hospitals. An old woman from my church was not permitted to be in the hospital with her Corona-infected husband; he pined for her company, but the hospital forbade her to enter. Missing his wife and attended only by masked medical personnel, his illness was exacerbated, and eventually he was placed on a ventilator, dying shortly thereafter, alone. Similarly, my neighbor’s cousin died yesterday in a large, luxurious nursing home. Her sisters, cousins, and children, all of whom lived in the area, no longer came to visit and she could not understand why. She contracted the Coronavirus despite all the precautions. She stopped eating and eventually died, having not had a hug from a loved one in more than a month. Surely, the doctors and politicians could not have imagined that the social-distancing policies that were meant to be saving lives would also be hastening death.

In many plagues in history, at least one out of three people died in the plague year in many localities. [Editor: That would be about 100 million deaths in America today.] Nevertheless, people were permitted to gather together with fewer restrictions on work and worship than we have, and allowed and expected to care for their sick loved ones as we are not.

As C.S. Lewis pointed out, “you and all of whom you love were already sentenced to death before the [Coronavirus came along], and quite a high percentage of us were going to die in very unpleasant ways …. If we are going to be destroyed [by a virus or recession] let that [disaster] find us doing sensible and human things — praying, working, teaching, reading, listening to music, bathing the children, playing tennis, chatting to our friends over a pint and a game of darts …”

So we struggle on in this beautiful world of ours. Eating less when food is scarce. Praying at home. Bringing cheer to our neighbors who are afraid or lonely or hysterical. Paying attention to the birds and trees and giving glory to God for all his gifts. Read More »

FROM LoveBreedsAccountability:

There’s a decent chance that while a large chunk of America is clearly wrapped up in their “#StayHome! #MaskUp! #TogetherWeWin!” platitudes, the ads coming out of corporate America that exploit those sentiments will be what awaken us from our media-induced COVID-19 slumber.

I mean at some point even the most preachy and sanctimonious among us are bound to say, “Oh FFS enough already.”

Even the coveted and gainfully employed “frontline” workers, at least the ones who aren’t crying into Facebook videos all day to prove to us just how rough they have it and how tremendously heroic they are, even many of them are already sick of this whole thing.

And corporate America doing what it does — exploiting that which they think is “cool” while packaging it as some value that their company really, truly, honestly believes in — might be the straw that breaks the camel’s back.

Every single commercial out there now is some huge corporation trying to tug at our heart strings or stroke our egos with persistently holier-than-thou messages about what they’re doing for COVID-19, and what you’re doing for COVID-19, and what everyone under the sun is doing for or because of COVID-19. And while I’ll be the first to admit that I’m often the first to be annoyed by things in general, I’ve been annoyed for like 6 weeks now and I gotta think a good chunk of the country is catching up.

You can’t turn anywhere in America be it television, internet, radio or just going about your daily business without running into endless masks of sanctimony and ginned up moral servitude over how tragic it all it is but how wonderful we all are and how mindful we must remain because of how strong we all clearly are.

WHAT happens when a judge follows the unconstitutional orders of the Covid Crook in the governor’s office and sends someone to jail for trying to make a living during the Covid shutdown?

State officials, realizing the potential backlash, lie and say, “Oh, that wasn’t what we really meant.”

In Texas, Gov. Greg Abbott has publicly contested the jail sentence of Shelley Luther, a salon owner sent to jail for opening her business.

As I have made clear through prior pronouncements, jailing Texans for non-compliance with executive orders should always be the last available option. Compliance with executive orders during this pandemic is important to ensure public safety; however, surely there are less restrictive means to achieving that goal than jailing a Texas mother.”

What chutzpah! Judge Eric Moyé was resorting to the “last available option,” since Luther refused to comply with the shutdown. Now Moyé will get the blame for taking the governor’s order, unlawful though it was, seriously.

The shutdowns require voluntary compliance by the public. If the public refused, the whole thing would collapse.

WE MAY never know how many patients in nursing homes died not from the coronavirus but from neglect. The case of one nursing home in Montreal is illustrative of what happens when a worldwide panic is set off and the staff in a nursing home flees, leaving the bedridden to fend for themselves. The New York Times reported last week:

The deaths in Canada were discovered late last week at Résidence Herron, a private home for seniors in Montreal, after the local health authority, alarmed by staff shortages and the spread of coronavirus at the home, took control of the residence.

They found dehydrated residents lying listless in bed, unfed for days, with excrement seeping out of their diapers.

“I’d never seen anything like it in my 32-year nursing career,” said Loredana Mule, a nurse on the team. “It was horrific — there wasn’t enough food to feed people, the stench could’ve killed a horse.”

After she left the home, she said, she collapsed in her car and wept.

A skeleton staff of two nurses had been left to care for a private residence with nearly 150 beds, she said. The remaining staff had fled amid the outbreak of the coronavirus, leaving patients, some paralyzed or with other chronic illnesses, to fend for themselves.

In nursing homes throughout North America and Europe, residents have been confined to their rooms and prevented from seeing the family members who might otherwise supervise their care. In some places, one would not, definitely not, want to be incarcerated with the staff. At a nursing home in New Jersey, where 17 people died, the staff and conditions had gotten very negative ratings before the pandemic.

CANADIAN SCIENTIST D.G. Goncourt reviews the medical literature on the effectiveness of face masks to control respiratory disease. A summary of his findings:

Masks and respirators do not work.

There have been extensive randomized controlled trial (RCT) studies, and meta-analysis reviews  of RCT studies, which all show that masks and respirators do not work to prevent respiratory influenza-like illnesses, or respiratory illnesses believed to be transmitted by droplets and aerosol particles.

Furthermore, the relevant known physics and biology, which I review, are such that masks and respirators should not work. It would be a paradox if masks and respirators worked, given what we know about viral respiratory diseases: The main transmission path is long-residence-time aerosol particles (< 2.5 μm), which are too fine to be blocked, and the minimum-infective-dose is smaller than oneaerosol particle.

The present paper about masks illustrates the degree to which governments, the mainstream media, and institutional propagandists can decide to operate in a science vacuum, or select only incomplete science that serves their interests. Such recklessness is also certainly the case with the current global lockdown of over 1 billion people, an unprecedented experiment in medical and political history.

Common sense told us this was true many weeks ago. If face masks were effective, doctors and other health practitioners certainly would have adopted them a long time ago.

FROM Cliff Kincaid:

There are people in China and America, some with connections to the Wuhan Institute of Virology, who are upset with reports that the coronavirus is linked to the lab. They want to blame President Trump for a plague unleashed by China. But it turns out there are many controversial labs in Wuhan. Some “study” viruses. Some produce fentanyl.

A fascinating article in the Los Angeles Times reveals that before Wuhan became known for a virus killing tens of thousands of people, it was the main source of fentanyl, described as the deadliest drug to ever hit U.S. streets, which is also killing tens of thousands of people. Datelined Mexico City, the Los Angeles Times article began, “For drug traffickers interested in getting in on the fentanyl business, all roads once led to Wuhan.” It reported, “Vendors there shipped huge quantities around the world. The biggest customers were Mexican drug cartels, which have embraced fentanyl in recent years because it is cheaper and easier to produce than heroin.”

“The Chinese government is the world’s largest drug dealer,” says Senator Tom Cotton. “China has allowed fentanyl and other synthetic opioids to pour into the United States for years, killing tens of thousands of Americans.” Democratic Senator Chuck Schumer agrees, saying, “We must hold China, currently the world’s largest producer of illicit fentanyl, accountable for its role in the trade of this deadly drug.” Their Fentanyl Sanctions Act was included in the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2020.

But now we find our nation engulfed in another made-in-China health crisis.
