Open (More or Less) Post on Covid 184
Feb. 11th, 2025 10:48 am![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)

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 and its government enablers are causing injury and death on a massive scale. 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 wholly owned 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 plan on making off topic comments, please go away. This is an open post for discussion of the Covid epidemic, the vaccines, drugs, policies, and other measures that supposedly treat it, and other topics directly relevant to those things. It is not a place for general discussion of unrelated topics. Nor is it a place to ask for medical advice; giving such advice, unless you're a licensed health care provider, legally counts as practicing medicine without a license and is a crime in the US. Don't even go there.
5. 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. Also, please don't drag in current quarrels about sex, race, religions, etc. No, I don't care if you disagree with that: my journal, my rules.
6. Please don't just post bare links without explanation. A sentence or two telling readers what's on the other side of the link is a reasonable courtesy, and if you don't include it, your attempted post will be deleted.
Please also note that nothing posted here should be construed as medical advice, which neither I nor the commentariat (excepting those who are licensed medical providers) are qualified to give. Please take your medical questions to the licensed professional provider of your choice.
With that said, the floor is open for discussion.

Date: 2025-02-11 11:34 pm (UTC)This A/H5N1 currently cannot easily jump to humans, but according to the article, one mutation would enable it to go human-to-human. And, it's supposed to be pretty virulent, with currently a 50% death rate in humans (when transmitted to the human from birds).
Your thoughts?
- Are the 50% who die of it the older, preexisting-condition, more vulnerable humans?
- If one were to catch this bird flu, what would be some good things one can eat/drink/take/do to get you through it? (For example, there's the assertion I've heard that zinc hinders the reproduction of viruses, thus would be good versus a Coronavirus infection)

Re: Covid and medical advice
Date: 2025-02-12 03:43 am (UTC)The history of medical organization, education, and so on is interesting, and well-studied. Suffice it to say that, in the 19th century (and before), medical practice in the US was pretty unrestricted, unstandardized, untrained and at the best unreliable. For various reasons, there was a reform movement, part of which was an opposition to "quackery" (which began with movements against eg lye in medicines, or frequently lethal remedies), part of which was a reform of medical education, and part of which was certification of medical providers. And elimination of rivals. Again seriously but not literally, “Every great cause begins as a movement, becomes a business, and eventually degenerates into a racket.”
(A good, brief survey of much of this can be found in a couple of chapters of Randall Collins' The Credential Society.)
However, the key is this. No matter how sensible regulations may be in principle, they are a two-edged weapon. Once they are in place, they can be used by any number of people, who can put them to any number of uses, or abuses. One of these is to shut people up (or down, or out). Even a reasonable code of conduct, or statement of ethical principles, can be put to factional purposes. Once such a regulatory train has left the station, it can be very hard to turn around. People who are targeted by such complaints can be put to a great deal of trouble, and expense, to defend themselves, even against absurd charges. "The process is the punishment."
It's a matter of basic risk management to try to reduce one's vulnerability to attacks from ill-wishers. This is especially true for vulnerabilities that are marginal, or irrelevant, to what one is trying to do.

From:Ecosophia Prayer List
Date: 2025-02-12 04:50 pm (UTC)If I missed anybody, or if you would like to add a prayer request for yourself or anyone who has given you consent (or for whom a relevant person holds power of consent) to the list, please feel free to leave a comment below and/or in the comments at the current prayer list post.
This week I would like to bring special attention to the following prayer requests.
May Jennifer, who is now 38+ weeks into pregnancy with the baby still in breech position, have a safe and healthy pregnancy, may the delivery go smoothly, and may her baby be born healthy and blessed.
May Jack H's father John, whose aortic dissection is considered inoperable and likely fatal by his current doctors, be healed, and make a physical recovery to the full extent that providence allows, and be able to enjoy more time together with his loved ones.
May Goats and Roses' son A, who had a serious concussion weeks ago and is still suffering from the effects, regain normal healthy brain function, and rebuild his physical strength back to normal, and regain his zest for life. And may Goats and Roses be granted strength and effectiveness in finding solutions to the medical and caregiving matters that need to be addressed, and the grief and strain of the situation.
May Other Dave's father Michael Orwig, who has been in the hospital since 1/20 with almost complete liver failure and 20% kidney function, have found the strength to survive and thrive when he recently came off of his respirator, and may he be blessed with robust healing that allows him to regenerate his failing organs to the fullest extent that the universe allows; may his wife Allyn and the rest of his family be blessed and supported in this difficult time.
May Kevin’s sister Cynthia be cured of the hallucinations and delusions that have afflicted her, and freed from emotional distress. May she be safely healed of the physical condition that has provoked her emotions; and may she be healed of the spiritual condition that brings her to be so unsettled by it. May she come to feel calm and secure in her physical body, regardless of its level of health.
May Viktoria have a safe and healthy pregnancy, and may the baby be born safe, healthy and blessed. May Marko have the strength, wisdom and balance to face the challenges set before him. (picture)
May Linda from the Quest Bookshop of the Theosophical Society, who has developed a turbo cancer, be blessed and have a speedy and full recovery from cancer.
May Frank R. Hartman, who lost his house in the Altadena fire, and all who have been affected by the larger conflagration be blessed and healed.
May Corey Benton, who is currently in hospital and whose throat tumor has grown around an artery and won't be treated surgically, be healed of throat cancer. He is not doing well, and consents to any kind of distance healing offered. [Note: Healing Hands should be fine, but if offering energy work which could potentially conflict with another, please first leave a note in comments or write to randomactsofkarmasc to double check that it's safe] (1/7)
May Open Space's friend's mother
Judith be blessed and healed for a complete recovery from cancer.
May Peter Van Erp's friend Kate Bowden's husband Russ Hobson and his family be enveloped with love as he follows his path forward with the glioblastoma (brain cancer) which has afflicted him.
May Scotlyn's friend Fiona, who has been in hospital since early October with what is a diagnosis of ovarian cancer, be blessed and healed, and encouraged in ways that help her to maintain a positive mental and spiritual outlook.
May Peter Evans in California, who has been diagnosed with colon cancer, be completely healed with ease, and make a rapid and total recovery.
May Jennifer and Josiah, their daughter Joanna, and their unborn daughter be protected from all harmful and malicious influences, and may any connection to malign entities or hostile thought forms or projections be broken and their influence banished.
Guidelines for how long prayer requests stay on the list, how to word requests, how to be added to the weekly email list, how to improve the chances of your prayer being answered, and several other common questions and issues, are to be found at the Ecosophia Prayer List FAQ.
If there are any among you who might wish to join me in a bit of astrological timing, I pray each week for the health of all those with health problems on the list on the astrological hour of the Sun on Sundays, bearing in mind the Sun's rulerships of heart, brain, and vital energies. If this appeals to you, I invite you to join me.

Date: 2025-02-12 08:06 pm (UTC)Gain of function research seems to be the most likely origin for the virus. And it spread at a very convenient time for a regime change operation.
Given that Tony Blinken was responsible for 51 “intelligence” operatives claim about the Biden laptop being Russian disinformation. And all the bogus charges of Trump being under the influence of the Russians that came from the folks who do regime change all over the world. It just seems to me that is what we experienced over the last 4 years was a coup by the national security state and the leaders of the Democratic party.
I know that it sounds crazy but given all the revelations about how the US government spends money it seems to make sense.
Can somebody point out what is wrong with that idea, and reassure me that I am just being paranoid?

Date: 2025-02-13 12:10 am (UTC)Since the topic stream has been nibbling into music this week, I’d propose the 1976 Genesis song from the album “A Trick of The Tail”, Squonk, for the official ballad of the upcoming dissolving of Squonkish Democrats and Republicans as Trump and DOGE hunt them down, put them in sacks, and we all gently watch them… dissolve.
Song: https://youtu.be/xmUSL1njm84
Lyrics: https://genius.com/Genesis-squonk-lyrics
The Squonkish wailing is increasing, due at least in part to the promised release of formerly-secret documents regarding:
* assassinations of JFK, RFK, and MLK
* 9/11
* UFOs
* Jeffrey Epstein files including the client list
* Most-relevant to this blog: Covid-19 origin
I would hope the Covid investigation goes deeper, not just into its origin but into the propagation of the entire demented psy-op, including masks, 6-ft floor dots, mandatory mRNA injections, school closures, firings, and miscellaneous countless insanities.
Floor dots, hah! I harvested two more just a couple of weeks ago from the lobby of a motel in Davis, California; see my ‘kill’ photo at: https://photos.app.goo.gl/8ZBB6WoaJf7aVEFn9

Re: Fertility
Date: 2025-02-14 09:41 pm (UTC)We should also note the weaponised propaganda trial run.
ALL safety signals were deliberately ignored, because it wasn't a vax as we previously considered them to be.
Birth rates are down in heavily vaxxed countries, but they were falling anyway and one thing COVID and the vax did was magnify the war between the sexes i.e. liberal women vs conservative men. Thus fewer people are forming relationships and procreating.
My estimate is overall the ideological battle between the sexes is having a greater effect on birthrates than the vax.

It's worth reading. He's saying some things officially and out loud here.
quote:
"Americans have lost trust in our health system, skeptical as to whether they are receiving honest answers about the causes of the country’s health crisis and how to improve it.
Only a third of Americans trust the U.S. health system, a near-record low."
And, one of the four main directives:
"Ensure expanded treatment options and health coverage flexibility for beneficial lifestyle changes and disease prevention."
That's vague and open-ended, but pointing in the right direction.

Breaking: Trump to Strip Federal Funding From Schools That Mandate COVID Vaccines
President Donald Trump signed an executive order to defund schools, universities and other education agencies that require COVID-19 vaccines for students and staff. The order directs HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the secretary of Education to create a plan to end the mandates.

######
My further comment: there was plenty of mass formation psychosis going on when it came to imposing the mandates (I know because I witnessed it myself) but for many institutions the mandates were simply a function of federal funding. Under Biden it was, mandate the covid jabs or we cut your funding. Now it looks like under Trump it's going to be do NOT mandate the covid jabs or we cut your finding. The gravy train takes a different track accordingly.
Also, for starters I think RFK is going to get VAERS (Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System) up to speed. One way to do that is to simply enforce the law that's already there, that medical providers MUST report adverse events.

Date: 2025-02-15 01:34 am (UTC)Rebel News here in Canada has just made this post:
"After nearly four years of relentless attacks against Dr. Charles Hoffe, the College of Physicians and Surgeons of British Columbia is backing down.
. . . Dr. Hoffe faced years of professional persecution for raising concerns about COVID-19 vaccine injuries. His willingness to speak out led to the college filing professional misconduct charges against him and threatening to revoke his medical licence.
But last week, they unexpectedly decided to DROP the case!"
Apparently, the College is citing "materially changed" circumstances around the COVID "emergency" but there is much skepticism. I wonder why!
A win is a win although it does nothing to compensate Dr. Hoffe for all the distress this case must have cost him.
