Open (More or Less) Post on Covid 56

if onlyAs we move further into the second year of these open posts, it's pretty clear that the official narrative is cracking as the toll of deaths and injuries from the Covid vaccines rises steadily and the vaccines themselves demonstrate their total uselesness at preventing Covid infection or transmission. It's still important to keep watch over the mis-, mal- and nonfeasance of our self-proclaimed health gruppenfuehrers, and the disastrous results of the Covid mania, but I think it's also time to begin thinking about what might be possible as the existing medical industry reels under the impact of its own self-inflicted injuries. 

So it's time for another open post. The rules are the same as before: 

1. If you plan on parroting the party line of the medical industry and its paid shills, please go away. This is a place for people to talk openly, honestly, and freely about their concerns that the party line in question is dangerously flawed and that actions being pushed by the medical industry et al. are causing injury and death. It is not a place for you to dismiss those concerns. Anyone who wants to hear the official story and the arguments in favor of it can find those on hundreds of thousands of websites.

2. If you plan on insisting that the current situation is the result of a deliberate plot by some villainous group of people or other, please go away. There are tens of thousands of websites currently rehashing various conspiracy theories about the Covid-19 outbreak and the vaccines. This is not one of them. What we're exploring is the likelihood that what's going on is the product of the same arrogance, incompetence, and corruption that the medical industry and its tame politicians have displayed so abundantly in recent decades. That possibility deserves a space of its own for discussion, and that's what we're doing here. 
 
3. If you plan on using rent-a-troll derailing or disruption tactics, please go away. I'm quite familiar with the standard tactics used by troll farms to disrupt online forums, and am ready, willing, and able -- and in fact quite eager -- to ban people permanently for engaging in them here. Oh, and I also lurk on other Covid-19 vaccine skeptic blogs, so I'm likely to notice when the same posts are showing up on more than one venue. 

4. If you don't believe in treating people with common courtesy, please go away. I have, and enforce, a strict courtesy policy on my blogs and online forums, and this is no exception. The sort of schoolyard bullying that takes place on so many other internet forums will get you deleted and banned here. No, I don't care if you disagree with that: my journal, my rules. 

With that said, the floor is open for discussion.

UK changing tune for pregnant/nursing mums?

[personal profile] methylethyl 2022-08-30 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/regulatory-approval-of-pfizer-biontech-vaccine-for-covid-19/summary-public-assessment-report-for-pfizerbiontech-covid-19-vaccine

As far as I can tell, this is just a report, and does not (yet) represent an actual change in policy-- though I'd love to hear from actual UK residents on that, in case you're hearing different. But you might recall that UKHSA has been really gung-ho up til now about the shots being extremely safe and effective and recommended for everybody, including women who are pregnant or nursing. To find the relevant bit in that wall of obfuscation and Somnoleseian text, ctrl+F for "pregnant". It says:

"The absence of reproductive toxicity data is a reflection of the speed of development to first identify and select COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine BNT162b2 for clinical testing and its rapid development to meet the ongoing urgent health need. In principle, a decision on licensing a vaccine could be taken in these circumstances without data from reproductive toxicity studies animals, but there are studies ongoing and these will be provided when available. In the context of supply under Regulation 174, it is considered that sufficient reassurance of safe use of the vaccine in pregnant women cannot be provided at the present time: however, use in women of childbearing potential could be supported provided healthcare professionals are advised to rule out known or suspected pregnancy prior to vaccination. Women who are breastfeeding should also not be vaccinated. These judgements reflect the absence of data at the present time and do not reflect a specific finding of concern. Adequate advice with regard to women of childbearing potential, pregnant women and breastfeeding women has been provided in both the Information for UK Healthcare Professionals and the Information for UK recipients."

---TL:DR: We don't have enough info to say that this is safe for pregnant or breastfeeding women, so we recommend against it for those women.

What changed?

On the surface, nothing's changed. If they don't have that data now, they certainly didn't have it back when they were merrily shooting up pregnant ladies.

But this is the UK we're talking about. Their national health system keeps *meticulous* data, and the shots have been going for a year or more, in the childbearing-age population.

So if anything, they have vastly *more* data on this now, than they had last year, when it was all go go go, safeandeffective, you're a bad person if you don't do it.

Clearly, something has changed. They're just not saying what.

Three links that have piqued my interest, and a fun bonus link.

First link, in the "who knew?!" category. Apparently Ralph Baric spent a great deal of time in the 80's and 90's determining the link between heart disease and coronaviruses. Specifically, how to INDUCE myocarditis VIA coronavirus. I'm shocked, shocked to find that gambling is going on here! Do we chalk 2 decades of this kind of research up to malice, or incompetence and greed?

https://mobile.twitter.com/gumby4christ/status/1564345979398107136

Second link, because the demon/god debate and hypothesis has so much traction here. Demon stuff is really not my area of expertise, outside of sleep paralysis shadow people, so I've remained interested but agnostic. I just listened to this podcast with a psychotherapist who dealt with this issue in prisons and psychiatric institutions. I'm still processing, but thought some of you might find his observations interesting. Sounds like he started from a pro-science bent, and wound up not far from a catholic exorcist bent.

https://pca.st/wprlz1cd

Third (set of) links, about small business. I'm beginning to think that it's not an accident that the self-inflicted energy crisis in Europe will disproportionately hit small and medium business. Costs will spiral out of control and put a lot of them out of business; those that survived covid that is. Cui bono?

Just a personal hunch: combine this with stuff Tucker's finally been permitted to say, the shift to Blame Trump, the mad scramble going on at the CDC, the Fauci ouster...

I think the next few weeks could be very lively.

Union meeting

(Anonymous) 2022-08-30 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
I had a union meeting this weekend and while the e-board and couple of their lackeys still came after me for spreading “misinformation” I had some support from the membership for once. A couple people even texted me afterwords saying thank you for speaking out.

My approach:

I stated some facts about this being the worst medical disaster in history up front to get it out to the way, but then changed focus to how we are illegally discriminating against employees and now without the cover of the CDC defending the mandates we are putting ourselves in serious legal jeopardy by continuing to go along with the ridiculous demands of the employer.

Stuck to my guns but stayed polite and tried to not get worked up too much when explaining my concerns about all-cause mortality rates.

Most importantly I used “I feel” statements which disarmed some of the gaslighters, while listening to and constructively commenting on other issues as well so I did not come across as a conspiracy guy obsessed with the shots.

Hopefully this helps and encourages others to say what needs to be said. We are catching a tail wind for the first time since this whole thing started and if you have any hope of saving your compromised organizations or at least redirecting the membership towards constructive behavior now is the time to try.

Good luck!

I've recently realized that there's a real possibility that we will be entering Stage 11 of the Original Hypothesis this winter. One thing the original hypothesis did not take into account was one of the weirdest elements of the entire Covid-19 event: despite only covering a few weeks, the testing that authorized the EUAs for these vaccines used studies on people first injected early in 2020. Pfizer's studies, for example, started in April of 2020. What this means is the vaccine manufacturers (and anyone they shared their data with) had, roughly speaking, a one year head start on what was going to happen. What they saw troubled them enough to effectively freak out the entire political and social establishment last summer, and sure enough this summer we're witnessing a gigantic increase in deaths from all sorts of causes, indicative of immune dysfunction, coupled with a frantic effort to drop the vaccines and Covid-19 narrative as fast as possible without saying anything; and what appears to be efforts to set up Trump as the fall guy. This is exactly what I'd expect to see if the data indicates that this winter will be a complete disaster.

If a very large fraction of the study participants died last winter, and the people with access to the data are aware of this, and likely now see signs in the general public this is coming as well, it would explain a lot of otherwise odd phenomena. Given every previous attempt to create a corona-virus vaccine has ended up inducing ADE, regardless of what other side effects may show up, the hypothesis that ADE shows up with these vaccines needs to be considered; and that it makes a certain amount of sense of otherwise baffling details to assume it showed up in the trials, and the powers that be know it's coming and are struggling right now to figure out what to do about it.

I really hope I'm wrong, because if I'm right the suffering this winter will be truly horrific, but the above hypothesis explains details which are otherwise baffling.

Cue the horror movie music:

And so we’re essentially back to square one now, with new Omicron variants that are just as nasty as the pre-Omicron variants, but now constantly infecting vast swathes of the population instead of a small fraction. When you look at the excess mortality we’re dealing with here in Europe, this becomes immediately apparent. Excess mortality is higher in Europe so far than it was in 2020 and 2021 at this point in time.

[...]

What do I mean with catastrophe? At the time I made the graph, I meant a wave of excess mortality far beyond anything we’ve seen so far. I still expect that’s what’s in store for us this coming winter. We’re constantly getting hit by wave after wave, of Omicron variants that are progressively getting nastier. BA.2 was nastier than BA.1, BA.5 is now nastier than BA.2 and the BA.2.75 descendants promise to be even worse in highly vaccinated populations.


https://www.rintrah.nl/the-next-wave/

That, plus this:

The entire Eurozone, as well as the United Kingdom, faces the worst cost-of-living crisis in modern memory. Already the German savings ratio has collapsed due to inflation, and this is well in advance of the true price shocks to come. [...] Assuming that Nord Stream 1 continues to operate at one-fifth capacity, German energy consumption will have to be reduced by at least 20%; if the Russians cut off all gas, which they may well do, we’ll face a 40% shortfall. Even the best case here is a catastrophe that turning off street lights will not remedy. The biggest savings are to be had in reducing indoor heating, and cutting back on the use of warm water, refrigerators, washing machines and computers. Municipal services and office buildings will probably have to be closed, though some facilities, like public libraries, may be kept open as a refuge for those unable to heat their homes.

The winter situation in Europe, at current, seems ripe for deadly disease this year/early 2023.

First, it seems increasingly evident that the vaccines have had a negative impact on the immune strength of large numbers of individuals. Second, with the skyrocketing cost of energy as a result of Ukraine, even places like Germany are not going to have the electricity or natural gas to keep it's populace warm once October/November rolls around. Third, there's even going to be a shortage of fairly normal consumer goods like medicine and food (let alone how the water systems will be maintained during this period).

All those factors together spells bad news bears (and that's without taking into account some of the mundane astrology readings which are equally dire).

"if you have any hope of saving your compromised organizations..."

I am trying to figure out why would anyone do that?

Have you ever seen that famous TV show M.A.S.H.?
After enjoying the show for years I finally realized how evil the "good guys" are.
I am not talking about their treatment of paternalistic, condescending treatment of the locals, or the illegal stuff they did.
What I think is evil is the fact that they criticized US Army but in the end they did their jobs: they patched up american soldiers so that the imperial machine can continue running, destroying and killing.

I guess I am not convinced that helping the evil people and organizations "see the light" will do more than perpetuate the same system that has created all these problems. I mean at this point, it's hard to deny there is a genocide going on. Does it matter if it's incompetence, money grubbing or some evil plot?
So why would you help any organizations that participated in this?

Sorry for the negativity, I am still debating what's the right thing to do going forward.

It does encapsulate not only the way I feel about knowing what's coming and being treated as crazy, but also the very real risk that our own good intentions might end up hurting the real people, turning them into ghosts like the rest (see the story).

Faustian cancer

[personal profile] team10tim 2022-08-30 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
For those that missed it the 1st time, the ethical skeptic has been collecting all cause mortality data from the CDC since the beginning and cancer deaths are up 9 sigma since the vaccine rolled out:

https://theethicalskeptic.com/2022/08/20/houston-we-have-a-problem-part-1-of-3/

The Arkmedic has a post on the retraction of a paper researching the mechanism:

https://arkmedic.substack.com/p/welcome-to-gilead

The short version is it looks the mRNA from the vaccine does get into the nucleus. The spike protein disrupts a DNA repair mechanism that protects us from cancer. The spike protein sticks around longer than we were told.

Igor Chudov has aggregated some stats on the excess mortality and thinks that it is going to get worse:

https://igorchudov.substack.com/p/excess-mortality-and-elevated-cancer

So in total, it looks like cancer is going to become much more common in the Western countries that went all in on the EGT. Kind of fitting that Faustian civilization is having a fatal problem with limitless growth in a finite body.

A presumption of honesty in a room full of liars

[personal profile] team10tim 2022-08-30 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I have a theory about how all this happened. Let me know what you think.

The medical research industry has become systematically corrupt. Fraud is rampant and the conflicts of interest are so common that no one bats an eye at them anymore. We've all heard about the replication crisis and the long list of legal penalties to Pfizer for bribes, fraudulent marketing, suppressing adverse data, etc.

But.. here is the theory.. everyone in the industry behaves as if they are the only ones cheating. They are all bending the rules, gaming the system, and p-hacking the data, but they make decisions as if they were the only ones doing it and all of the other players are honest and acting in good faith. An actor here is anyone on the same team that is in on the scam. It can be a single person or a research team or the whole leadership at the department of health depending on what the scam is. Yes, this requires doublethink. No, I don't think that is much of suprise these days.

So, from the top, Obama bans gain of function research in the USA. Fauci, Peter Daszak, and few others funnel money through the EcoHealth Alliance to the Wuhan Institute of Virology to do the research overseas. Someone at Wuhan screws up and lets covid loose.

The employee hides it from the lab as long as possible. The lab hides it from Wuhan as long as possible. China hides it from the world as long as possible. China and the USA hide their collaboration as long as possible.

The big pharma companies see a great opportunity to to get their new mRNA gene therapies into production with minimal oversight. Their research teams kludge something together that might work and present it as the best available option, without knowing that the spike that they are using was basically weaponized in Wuhan. Every single safety or efficacy test is done by a team that knows their job is to produce the results that are hoped for, and not to find problems. Every step of the way each actor assumes that the data they were given is sound, and adds a little bit of their own polish and embellishment before sending it up the ladder.

The FDA takes the results at face value and does a cursory check to make sure that no flashing red warning lights have slipped through and might get them in trouble later. It gets rubber stamped and shipped out.

The politicians see the fantastic numbers and proclaim that the safe and effective vaccine is the Holy grail of vaccines and it will be the most closely monitored medical product in history.

From here on out, each and every actor knows that if there is some problem with the vax it will get them in trouble over previous scams and they all fudge new data to prevent anything from coming out that might raise alarms. This includes the media that were just passing off the government press releases as if they were real news.

Which brings us to the present moment where a huge amount of evidence is directly contradicting the establishment narrative. I'm expecting that the last month of CYA and blame shifting will go into overdrive in the next 3-6 months as it turns out that basically everyone was complicit in fabricating something.

Thoughts?

John Campbell has gotten a warning from YouTube

(Anonymous) 2022-08-31 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
Some of you know of John Campbell, who has actually been overall pro-vaccine, but does cover vaccine injuries (and the Thai teenager study on cardiovascular effects of vaccines) on his site, and increasingly has concerns about repeated boosters for all. He is triple vaxed, but is not planning to get the next booster. He thinks the risk-benefit analysis has changed in Omicron.

He is now gotten a warning from Youtube for misinformation.

This is how he is subtly getting out information in a very constrained way (lots of reading between the lines):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=po3GMgee-vc

For someone like him, who can hardly categorized as an anti-vaxxer, but is willing to look at all evidence, and has a more nuanced, complex opinion from official dogma, who is now at risk at being censored... Signs that powers that be are getting pretty desperate. The end of free speech indeed.

I had an idea for a story last night before my 30th birthday that has stuck with me throughout the day.

It involved a type of genetic feudalism where Lords made their serfs unable to reproduce with people under a different set of Lords. Lords had the ability to mute this effect to make alliances through marriage. People were free to leave but unable to have kids when they did. That some lords had been known to wipe their serfs out when they became too uppity through dormant genes unique to their serfs.

It’s a strange fear to have every part of who you be a potential for control over you.

Anyways, if anyone has any thoughts on that I’d love to hear.

As I read more resources it does stress me out that basically everyone I know has at least 3-4 doses (2 for myself). No issues with anyone thankfully, but apart from saying I don’t think they are safe or effective and getting silence there isn’t much to get from arguing.

Re: Faustian cancer

'Kind of fitting that Faustian civilization is having a fatal problem with limitless growth in a finite body.'

Systems thinkers and energy modellers showed long ago that this is exactly what cancer is. When you flush too much energy through a system, beyond what the system is used to, you run the risk of competitive overgrowth of one part of the system that puts the rest at risk.

Things like Algal blooms and starfish outbreaks are examples in hydro systems, while in the human body it is called cancer. Therefore there is no 'cure' for cancer because that shows a fundamental misunderstanding of what we are dealing with.

The solution is less energy, whether that be radiation, food, chemicals etc.

This seems likely to me. It's funny, because in the scientific world, everyone knows their discipline is corrupt; but few people seem to be able to grasp it is a systematic problem. My guess is that the implications of accepting it would just be too great for people who still believe in Progress to be able to process it.

How the Narrative might unravel

(Anonymous) 2022-08-31 12:50 am (UTC)(link)
I've been thinking about this for a while.

Clearly the medical establishment won't speak out. Nor the politicians. And the public are for the moment largely uninterested.

I did wonder if the insurers might force the issue open as they are the ones paying out for all these young and middle aged people getting sick and dying from the jabs.

https://www.brownstoneresearch.com/bleeding-edge/moderna-has-sued-pfizer-for-covid-19-patent-infringement/

"It turns out it might be the greed of Big Pharma instead!

But there is something good that will come out of this egregious example of greed…

It is inevitable that more information on the background of the pandemic will become a matter of public record… including how the National Institutes of Health, through its grant to EcoHealth Alliance, funded the gain-of-function research to engineer a coronavirus in the Wuhan laboratory – and whether or not that is the coronavirus that was leaked (or escaped) into public.

We’ll also get far more clarity on how these “vaccines” were developed, what genetic code was used, the ingredients used for the COVID shots, and a timeline of everything that happened from the pre-planning stages (that occurred well before this pandemic began) through to today.

This will contribute to bringing to light what could very well be the largest medical and political coverup in modern history. The sooner it happens, the better. The truth is coming out with every week that passes."
