BRAZILIAN President Jair Bolsonaro has defied the World Health Organization and refused to shut down the country’s economy. He called the coronavirus “a little flu.”

“The virus is here, we’re going to have to confront it. Confront it like a man, not a boy! We’re all going to die one day.”

Meanwhile, the international media tries to take the “far-right” president down. Bolsonaro has also said he doesn’t want “gay tourists” in his country. Read More »

FROM FOX NEWS:

CBS News admitted to a “mistake” on Monday after airing footage of an overcrowded hospital room that was allegedly in New York City but was actually from a hospital in Italy.

“It was an editing mistake. We took immediate steps to remove it from all platforms and shows,” a CBS News spokesperson told Fox News.

Last Wednesday, “CBS This Morning” included a brief clip showing several patients and medical professionals in one room during a report about the rising threat of the coronavirus outbreak in New York City.

However, that same footage aired days prior on Sky News.

DR. PABLO Goldschmidt is an Argentine-French virologist. He is Professor of Molecular Pharmacology at the Université Pierre et Marie Curie in Paris, a graduate of the Faculty of Pharmacy and Biochemistry of the University of Buenos Aires and Faculty of Medicine of the Hospital Center of Pitié-Salpetrière, Paris.

From an interview on Clarin.com, March 9, 2020 [Source: OffGuardian]:

“The ill-founded opinions expressed by international experts, replicated by the media and social networks repeat the unnecessary panic that we have previously experienced. The coronavirus identified in China in 2019 caused nothing less than a strong cold or flu, with no difference so far with cold or flu as we know… Read More »

THIS is a brilliant little speech by Ursula Von der Leyen, president of the European Union.

Her purpose here is to make the case for greater Internet censorship. You see, people are spreading falsehoods about the virus.

Notice how she picks absurdities — such as the idea that bleach can cure the virus — to make her case that untruths are rampant. Let me suggest that Von der Leyen is not at all worried that you might drink bleach. She is worried that you might drink from the wells of truth.

But she does a convincing job of projecting concern. She loves you. They are doing it only for your good.

The Internet as we know it is doomed. Read More »

Visited your website.

You are too logical.

The social control artists are exploiting fear-of-death-induced panic and control. The world is not a logical place and we limit the effectiveness of our messages by appealing to logic. They show pictures of a dead baby, many coffins, homeless being herded, patients lying on hospital floors, it is those images that provoke fear.  Our messages can’t compete. They make it appear they have all the weapons, ventilators, masks, chloroquine, etc.

If we can put something in their hands — vitamin C, etc., then just for placebo effect it works to allay panic. Read More »

THE New York Post is touting this obviously staged video of corpses in Brooklyn being loaded onto a refrigerated truck allegedly full of victims of the coronavirus:

The coronavirus pandemic has slammed New York City so hard that health care workers are using forklifts to load dead bodies into refrigerated trucks, according to a viral video.

The 5-minute and 32-second clip posted to YouTube shows medical officials helping to load the corpses in body bags into the mobile morgue outside Brooklyn Hospital Center in Fort Greene, according to a man shooting the clip who does not identify himself.

Anyone with any experience with modern hospitals knows that bodies are usually transported from hospitals by funeral homes and, in any event, are not left out in the open on sidewalks. The death count in New York, even if you accept all the cases being presented by officials as deaths actually caused by the virus rather than deaths of people who have tested positive for it and had other serious conditions, is not so great as to create this kind of body crisis or this sort of break with protocols, which probably violates the city’s sanitary laws. On an average day in New York City, someone dies every nine minutes. New York hospitals are used to processing dozens of bodies and the alleged deaths from coronavirus would be spread out over numerous hospitals. Notice in the official figures given, we are not told how many more people a day have died in the city in total over the past week, as deaths without a COVID diagnosis may have decreased.

New York City is currently the world headquarters of hysterical propaganda. This video is surely a fake. Sadly, Americans are naive and trusting enough to swallow this.

I am not suggesting that the virus does not exist or that it has not caused death and suffering. There’s a virus and a superstructure of fraud, exaggeration and lies about it, which dishonors anyone who has been sickened by it.

Do you get the feeling that we are participating in a live experiment and that even the exposure of videos like this is part of the drill and has been fully anticipated? I do. If a character in a play can review the performance of the playwright, I’d like to give a shout-out to the creator of this set piece. You get an A for effort. And a D for execution.

YESTERDAY was the seventh anniversary of the death of the writer Lawrence Auster, who died of cancer on March 29, 2013, leaving behind many devoted followers of his blog View from the Right.

At Vdare.com, I reflect on his views of the future of America in light of our current crisis.

May God grant eternal rest to Lawrence Auster and protect and keep his many friends. Read More »

“The Real History Channel surveyed 1,257 respondents (mostly Americans but also Europeans, Canadians and Australians)– who in turn each know at least 30 people (conservative estimate) who in turn know at least another 25 other people. That gives a random representative sample of almost 1 MILLION people within 2 degrees of separation of the original 1,257 survey respondents.

“It asked just two questions:

“1. Do you PERSONALLY know anyone who has died due to CV?

“2. Do you PERSONALLY know anyone who PERSONALLY knows someone that has died due to CV?”

March 28 – March 29 / Final

A – Number of Survey Respondents: 1,257

B – Est. of  acquaintances (1,257 x 30): 37,710

C -Number of Deaths Personally Known: 3

D -2nd Level Contacts (37,710 x 25): 942,750

E- Deaths believed by 3rd Party Hearsay: 15

* Final Tally (B+D):

“Out of  980,460 estimated extended contacts, only 18  (15 of which reported to us as hearsay!) — know of  (or think they know of ) a CV-related death — with most comments indicating the deceased had other health problems or was over 70 years of age.” [Source]

CONCLUSION: This virus is real, the government’s over-reaction is a hoax.

A READER from Michigan writes:

I have been following your posts about coronavirus with interest. It is clear that there is an unbelievable power grab and wealth transfer happening right before our eyes. About that you and I are in agreement.  Thank you for continuing to write about it and bring awareness to this issue.

However, you have been rightly questioning how it is that hospitals could be overwhelmed by the coronavirus pandemic when so many more people die annually of influenza. I had the same question, so I asked my husband, who is a nurse at University of Michigan hospital in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Michigan is one of the hardest hit states for COVID-19 infections at present.

Bill Ackman of Pershing Square Capital Management

HE’S made billions on investments while urging Trump to keep Americans out of their jobs for 30 days. From Barron’s:

Billionaire investor Bill Ackman announced earlier this month that he had been hedging his portfolio against market volatility spurred by the coronavirus. The bet paid off handsomely.

Ackman’s Pershing Square Capital Management hedge fund laid out $27 million to buy credit protection on global investment-grade and high-yield credit indexes. The purchases, which were made late last month when credit spreads were tighter, carried limited downside risk but the potential for significant upside. Ackman said Wednesday that he finished unwinding the hedges on Monday, reaping $2.6 billion in proceeds.

The hedge fund honcho has been making the media rounds recently, demanding that President Donald Trump institute a 30-day national shutdown to slow the spread of the coronavirus. He even warned that failing to act could take hotel stocks to zero. Nevertheless, he has been buying up stocks. [bold added]

Here’s interesting background on Ackman from Wikipedia:

At a panel meeting discussing Bernie Madoff in January 2009, Ackman defended his longtime friend Ezra Merkin, saying, “Has Ezra committed a crime? I don’t think so,” and “I think [Merkin] is an honest person, an intelligent person, an interesting person, a smart investor.”[15][16][17] In April 2009, Merkin was charged with civil fraud by the State of New York for “secretly steering $2.4 billion in client money into Bernard Madoff’s Ponzi fraud without their permission.”[18] A settlement was reached on June 2012 requiring Merkin to pay $405 million to victims including the Metropolitan Council on Jewish Poverty.[19]

CHRIS PIRNAK at Know Your Adversary introduces his latest podcast:

It doesn’t matter whether this crisis is legitimate or not. This manufactured pandemic has the potential for formulating the largest transfer of wealth in human history. A discussion of how we can successfully navigate these waters. This isn’t a bailout, because that would imply moral hazard behavior at the top. This is a well orchestrated plan.

-I am observing that there has not been any let up in the media’s fear campaign. This tells me that the elites intend to maximize their asset grab. Perhaps we may see even more manufactured horror.

-There is a complete lockdown on the crisis narrative. Fox fires Trish Regan for minimizing the circumstances. There is a total blackout regarding the objective discussion of effective treatments and cures. The elites want to maximize this story line and political correctness rules.

-Many of the +30 million unemployed will never find gainful employment after the crisis concludes. [cont.]

“ACCORDING to statista.com [3], “Italy has the highest amount of confirmed [COV] cases in Europe with 59,138…” That’s as of March 23. If you multiply by six, to get the annual figure, you arrive at 360,000 cases. You want to blow that up, because of acceleration? Go ahead. How about a million cases for the year? Two million. Three million.

“Now let’s look at ordinary flu cases for Italy in a given year. According to sciencedirect.com [4], “In the winter seasons from 2013/14 to 2016/17, an estimated average of 5,290,000 ILI [influenza-like illness] cases occurred in Italy, corresponding to an incidence of 9%.” That’s 5 million plus each year. Not just once. Was a seasonal flu pandemic declared in Italy? Ever? Was the whole country ever locked down as a result? No.”
