Open (More or Less) Post on Covid 197

[ecosophia]

We are now in the fourth year of these open posts. When I first posted a tentative hypothesis on the course of the Covid phenomenon, I had no idea that discussion on the subject would still be necessary more than three years later, much less that it would turn into so lively, complex, and troubling a conversation. Still, here we are. Crude death rates and other measures of collapsing public health are anomalously high in many countries, but nobody in authority wants to talk about the inadequately tested experimental Covid injections that are the most likely cause; public health authorities government shills for the pharmaceutical industry are still trying to push through laws that will allow them to force vaccinations on anyone they want; public trust in science is collapsing; and the story continues to unfold.

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.

from ed dowd:

I am often asked if the Covid Juice caused people to change or go crazy. Can’t say definitively but something went off the rails in the UK with new psychiatric PIP disability claims. 22 & 23 were up over 100% with a 14 standard deviation from trend.

Data from the field -

Friend needed to hire a trainer for weeklong training session. He was recommended a woman with a great history. As recent as 2 months ago she led a great session. A week ago, mid training, they had to cancel because she was completely incoherent (She arrived that way at the start of the week). Participants complained she couldn't present, finish sentences, stay organized, totally off the rails. Woman in her 30s. Never heard of that rapid a mental decline for someone that young. Shocked me as much as my first "Died Suddenly" person 4 years ago.

Was she aware of it? It sounds like she needs some tests done asap.

What a terrible thing to have happened to that person. That sounds to me like some kind of a stroke. I've seen that happen in some elderly people— one day to the next, unable to process basic information like, how to find the bank and where's the house? Also, fits of sudden and totally uncalled for public rage fits. And the lack of self-awareness many brain damaged people have with their personal grooming and dress can sometimes also be, well, remarkable. It seems it's a tell that something's the matter upstairs.

Yesterday in conversation a friend asked, what's going to happen to all the severely autistic people when they grow up and their parents pass away?

I hesitate to invoke Chris-chan, but oh hell, why not? What's the worst that could happen, he says. Look for what happens to Chris-chan over the next few years, and you'll have your answer for what will happen to the rest of the severely autistic people. His mother who he depends on is almost gone from this realm.

I guess the 20th century started dark and got darker and darker and darker. I guess the difference this time around is it is also getting weird and weirder and weirder. Wark? Deird? Things will probably settle down around 2060 or so. One can only hope.

Not everyone is going to make it.

This is a familiar, if less common, bad vex outcome. I've known for years a fellow who was an Occupational Medicine nurse practitioner, in his mid-50's, former military, and still an elite athlete. He worked for an Occupational Medicine clinic (my main competitor), and was required to take the C19 vex in mid 2021 IIRC. He soon developed sudden onset, rapidly progressive dementia. Within a span of several months he went from normal health, to being no longer able to function as a nurse practitioner and was totally disabled from dementia.

My suspicion is that the shot promoted the development of prion disease, and that was the end of him.
