Open (More or Less) Post on Covid 56

[ecosophia]

As 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.

I was very sick in December 2019 with a flu, or what I thought was the flu, although I'd never caught flu in my life and I'm 60. I had to sleep sitting up for 5 nights because I had a dry cough that would not quit. Didn't leave the house for 10 days.

There is an article on Brownstone about covid circulating in the US in 2019. Go to "brownstone.org/articles" and scroll down the page for an article titled "Covid was Spreading Across the U.S. in 2019". Brownstone is high quality writing.

I should have mentioned with my comment - I have tested positive for covid antibodies (blood test by a lab). Did I get it at a later date? Maybe, who knows. But I've definitely had it.

I second the recommendation for Brownstone. They have, among many other outstanding contributors:

Martin Kulldorf (on leave from Harvard U)
https://brownstone.org/author/martin-kulldorff/

Jay Battacharya (Stanford Medical School)
https://brownstone.org/author/jayb/

Harvey Risch (Yale U)

Aaron Kheriatry

His story says it all

The link to the paper discussed in this thread is here:

I read the article, the one man was Marin, Northern part of the greater san francisco bay area. I live in the southern part of the greater san francisco bay area, my college daughter was not far from this sphere, and routinely came into the Bay area to socialize.

Those cases sound like us, and she even had lung issues for a few years after. But, the one out of wack detail is her giving blood to the red cross summer or fall 2020 and not being notified of a positive antibody test. Maybe they made a mistake and did not inform her ?

I also should have mentioned. I was consistently around a person traveling back/forth to NYC and spending time there. Since NYC was the "epicenter" here in the US, for whatever reason ... ??? I think it was here far earlier than claimed. I believed that from the beginning and openly stated that to many.

Yeah, 2019 seems like the year, doesn't it. Or maybe even 2016 - Lemonade was a dope album.

I had the flu in spring 2019. Gave a public presentation a week or so after getting 'better' and was absolutely wiped, sweating, etc....
It was like warfare on my body. I'm sure it was covid-ish maybe even covid.
