Covid19: Cui Bono? What's the real agenda?

[Bill Ryan]

Dear Friends,

This post is simply to start this new thread. Please see my detailed explanation here (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?109753-The-Wuhan-Coronavirus-Covid-19-the-Honey-Badger-virus&p=1348228&viewfull=1#post1348228).

As the title suggests, this thread is to discuss the possibility (or likelihood!) of an agenda or agendas behind the current Covid19 scenario. There are three other new threads to discuss other specific angles and aspects of the current situation.


Covid19: Global reports, news and updates (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?110505-Covid19-Global-reports-news-and-updates)



Covid19: Don't trust the statistics (or the mainstream science about the cause of the sickness) (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?110507-Covid19-Don-t-trust-the-statistics--or-the-mainstream-science-about-the-cause-of-the-sickness-)
(this includes speculation about the role of 5G and other factors)



Covid19: There's very little danger: Covid19 may not exist at all. (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?110508-Covid19-There-s-very-little-danger-Covid19-may-not-exist-at-all.)
(this is really the "it's just the flu" thread, also for those who don't believe viruses even exist or can be "caught".)

:sun:

[Bill Ryan]

To start off the discussion, here's a near-copy of my post of 25 March (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?104824-Bill-Ryan-s-personal-Question-and-Answer-thread.-Pile-it-on.--&p=1346109&viewfull=1#post1346109) on my personal Q&A thread.

~~~


Hi Bill, Long time fan of PA and PC.. Really appreciate what you and KC have done..really woke me out of the sheeple slumber and made me question the bubble we live in.
What are your thoughts on the whole issue going on right now? Do you think that COVID is a cover for mass arrests of the Cabal?Thanks, and welcome! :sun:

Well, it's a real virus, dangerous simply because of how fast and easily it can spread undetected. Despite a relatively low fatality rate (i.e. compared with SARS, MERS and other very lethal viruses), but much higher than seasonal flu, it can devastate healthcare systems, as we've already seen in some countries.

That's simply because those who are hospitalized (maybe 20% of reported cases) often need 2-3 weeks of intensive care, whether they recover or not.

That alone can collapse any system, especially with shortages of beds and specialized equipment (let alone simple things like masks and gloves). And once healthcare workers themselves become infected then the problems are compounded much further.

As I've posted on the main coronavirus thread, even if the fatality rate was zero, and no-one died at all, hospitals would still collapse under the load of keeping people alive.

That's one thing that many people don't fully understand — the other being that the numbers right now are relatively tiny. (That's to say, 'tiny' compared with how large they're headed to become.) It's the exponential rate in which it's all growing that's the issue.

The problems are only just starting now. It'll become a true crisis in a few weeks.

Given the societal factors in play, the US is only marginally better off than Africa and South America. I'm extremely concerned we'll see some very very bad things happen there. This has only just started.

And I'm not a Trump-hater by any means, but with all this he's is alarmingly out of touch with reality. Thus far, he's been a very poor leader indeed.

Other points: Yes, it's a bioweapon. I'm certain. I don't feel I know for sure how or why it was released, but I suspect a US-based agency, highly compartmentalized. Many in the standard intel agencies might not even be aware at all, though I suspect that the word is spreading behind the scenes.

Increasingly, the chaos and incompetence in the US in particular looks covertly engineered. And so many people in the US are deeply unhealthy already (age isn't the prime factor: it's health that counts), tens of millions will become affected by this in one way or another.

Very few people in the US in any leadership or management position have any idea what's in store. The lack of awareness and understanding is hard to believe in some places. (And in some European countries, it's similar.)

While all this is happening, there's a real danger that many freedoms may be taken away from us. That's the cui bono? question, of course. I think someone designed all this, and it's been very carefully wargamed out already, like a slow-motion 9/11.

'Mass arrests' are a fantasy. (Like Nesara! It's always going to happen 'next week'.) And Qanon can be disregarded. It seems self-evident that there's no 'plan' to trust. If there ever was one, there's no plan now!

[Molope]

Bill I have a question.

Do you think this whole Covid-19 thing is related to what you were talking about in the videos of the anglo-saxon mission where there was a point where it was said that "China would catch a cold"?

Thanks in advance.

[Bill Ryan]

My reasons for feeling sure this is a bioweapon. Three of the points I've mentioned before, but not #4.

1) The Anglo-Saxon Mission (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?355-The-Anglo-Saxon-Mission). Some things don't fit, but other parts do.


2) More significant, I feel, is the "Lock Step" section on page 18 of this 2010 Rockefeller Foundation document. This details an astonishingly near-identical virus-release scenario to what's happening now.


http://avalonlibrary.net/Coronavirus_(Wuhan_2019-nCov)/Scenarios_for_the_Future_of_Technology_and_Interna tional_Development_Rockefeller_Foundation_2010.pdf


3) The conversation Elainie had with her ex-CIA friend (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?109753-The-Wuhan-Coronavirus-Covid-19-the-Honey-Badger-virus&p=1342121&viewfull=1#post1342121), who was "shaken up" and intending to head for the hills if she could, before Sept/October. She (Elaine's friend) said it was 100% a bioweapon. I know Elainie, and whatever she reports can be totally relied on.


4) Here's what I've not previously reported: a recent (21 March) video from Dr Steven Greer. He focuses largely on collective meditation to handle the serious problem.

But from about 21:50, he says he consulted with a contact of his in military biowarfare about the virus, and was told that "there are two, possibly three, strains circulating".

About 10 mins later, he's asked a question about origins of the virus. He's extremely cagey, saying that if he revealed everything he knew about this he'd be "banned from YouTube".

He's very clearly implying he knows, or has been told, that it's a bioweapon.

At 55:00 he again says he'll "not speak about the origins of the virus on this platform".

At 1:04:30, he says (very carefully!): "Whether this is a crisis that's completely natural, or partially natural and partially augmented, doesn't matter."
(His stance is that we just have to make the best of "the hand of cards we've been dealt".)

Yes, I do suspect that. It's not an exact fit at all, but we all know that these plans and strategies often change and are amended over time.

But having said that, I know about as much else (about whether there's a connection or not!) as you do. :)

[lunaflare]

Thank you for your post,

Thank you for your post,

But (in my opinion) they sure seem to be acting that way, or definitely were when I first made the post on 25 March.

In my strong opinion, the response in the US has been shambolic, uncoordinated, chaotic, inconsistent, and very very late.

[Lazlo]

If there wasn't an agenda before the outbreak started...there is now.

With that out of the way I wanted to say that I haven't posted here in several years, primarily because I became frustrated with the (seemingly) large number of members who would lash out at not just myself, but at anyone who tried to bring critical thinking skills to bear on almost any topic. I am wading back in now because I felt the urge to see what the community was discussing and was alarmed to see topics discussing variously: Don't trust the numbers, don't trust motives, 5G makes it worse, it's not really serious, and a host of other things that could frankly get some of you killed.

I don't trust the numbers either, but not simply because of the source (Here's looking at you China) but because of the way they are presented. I decided to look at the numbers in a different way and thought I would share in the event that this helps keep somebody safe. Almost every statistic you will see in some way derives ultimately from the numbers of people tested as a denominator and the number of hospitalizations or deaths as a numerator. This can be wildly misleading for a whole number of interrelated reasons that have been beat to death (pun intended) all over the media, both Alt and MSM.

So how to think about this in another way? Firstly, I believe the numbers for the dead are reasonably accurate, we can quibble over whether or not an underlying condition was the ultimate cause or not, but the reality is that someone with asthma, diabetes, cancer, or some other morbidity wasn't statistically much more likely to die yesterday than in any other day this year. Numbers do rise in the winter and drop off in the summer...marginally.

Secondly, the panic evident in the vast numbers of public officials that are dealing with this who could not possibility be part of the "plan" or what have you tells me that they genuinely believe this to be serious. I've got friends working in ER's. They sure as heck are taking it seriously. So with that out of the way, some numbers:

On any given day in the US about 7,700 people die of all of the usual things (cancer, heart disease, violence, accidents, etc.)
There are about 327 million Americans today
There are 8.62 million people living in NYC
This is about 2.6% of the US population
This makes the normal number of deaths in NYC about 203 on any given day
On March 31st, there were 180 deaths in NYC from Covid.

Let's draw some conclusions. On the bare surface of it Covid almost doubled the daily death rate. That's bad, but wait, some of those folks would have died anyway (see above about underlying conditions). And then there are still people who would have died from other causes anyway. Let's assume that there were fewer traffic and industrial accidents. My point is that there is so much chaos right now that it's going to be years before historians come to some sort of consensus about all of this and what the real numbers are, but the takeaway is that THERE IS A STATISTICALLY HUGE bump in the death rate and it's most likely not even peaked yet. A 2X increase in daily deaths is likely to persist for at least a month in even the most favorable scenarios.

In the meantime we have to get from here to the future. Which brings me to the question at hand: Who Benefits?

Lots of people are going to suffer, and those living in cramped 3rd world shantytowns are going to suffer the worst. Many of these people are going to rise up, some will even be successful in forcing change, but most will simply be screaming in the wind as the usual kleptocrats and strongmen profit from the misery of their fellow countrymen. From a global perspective, this is mostly noise (horrible, horrific noise) in the grand scheme of things with the exception of a few supply chains for rare and valuable resources found only in certain locales.

In the developed world, one of the primary casualties will be what little faith in government people still held on to before this. What makes government's dangerous? Fear of their own populace, that's what. What do scared people and scared government do? They overreact. That right there is the crux of the problem.

So who is the bad guy here? Mostly it's just people and institutions doing what they think is best for themselves. However, there are opportunists, and they will prey on fear. What kind of opportunists you ask? I have no interest in going down the list but I'll leave you with a train of thought that may help you to focus.

Remember the underwear bomber? I was travelling a bunch for work then and I can tell you with certainty that full body scanners started replacing simple metal detectors within DAYS of that happening.

Those scanners were already sitting in warehouses, built, tested, and ready to ship. Just waiting for an excuse.

So who benefits? The types of folks who built and sold those things and the politicians who were too afraid to roll them out until they had an excuse. They didn't focus on the underlying problem, they just wanted to make some (a lot of) bucks.

We can't do anything about some real or perceived group of sinister beings operating from the shadows of some doomsday bunker, but we can all shine bright lights on those who would ask us to give up freedoms in the name of security. We've been living that story for a long time already.

I hope to be able to benefit from this myself. I'm not sure what that will look like, or even if it involves making a single red cent. What I hope to do is help create a better community around me. Maybe you can benefit too.


Stay safe out there, and focus your intentions and actions where you can make a positive impact, most especially on the people around you...errrr... 6 feet away from you.

[Patient]

There must be an agenda.

If it is a bio weapon, which seems like the consensus, why has it taken so long to move from China to everywhere else?

Perhaps something was released in China. Then in Europe.

Some of the spread makes sense when you apply the 5g element to it. Some does not. But 5g is certainly an agenda.

With all of the travelling in and out of China, the west coast of North America should have been infected heavily with the virus in February by my understanding.

Am I missing something? Probably a lot. :)

(extract)
The Universidad de San Francisco de Quito has sequenced a strain of COVID-19 which was taken from a Dutch tourist, the first patient in Quito. Researchers can learn about the aggressiveness of this strain which is circulating in Ecuador, is older than, and with fewer mutations than the original in China. It is also different from the strains in Italy and Spain. The strain has been named “hCoV19/Ecuador/HEE_01/2020.”

Do read that carefully! It means at least one strain of the coronavirus in Ecuador (and/or the Netherlands/Europe) never originally came from China. The importance of this is hard to overstate.

I want to add my friend is still with a three letter agency, I am just not sure which one (nor can she ever tell me until she no longer works for them) she has already been CIA and FBI, so is it NSA? DoD? I do not know. I do know she works counter terrorism.

Very little makes sense to me but for sure the fear and anxiety are being used and harvested. I'm currently in an area hardly affected at all yet people lately are oozing fear and distress if they are out. I'm in area where people tend to be super healthy and fit, and younger. In the desert where I spend time also, the opposite. Highly elderly MSM consuming population. My guidance told me a couple years ago that something was coming whose main purpose was to instill fear, and whatever it was or looked like, to remain fearless. In the state of mind many people are in, the existence or virulence of lack of, of the virus is almost a moot point. People are primed for all kinds of illness and immune failures being very long in this condition.

[Elainie]

My guess would be DOD, Elainie.

Mine too but I don't dare ask!

[Ben]

There's something that i've been thinking about posting for the last few weeks, but haven't felt able to until now. This thread seems appropriate.


I had what would be considered by some a download (i've had a few now), where I was told, quite clearly, that there is a battle raging in the universe, between good and evil, and that it's centred here on Earth. And that the outcome of this battle will affect all of reality throughout the entirety of the universe(s).


Make of that what you will.


I guess, in relation to this thread title, that can be seen as an agenda of sorts.. Espescially depending on who, on this planet, ascribes to that, and what powers they may have in terms of acting upon it, both dark and light.


I really feel that there is a much higher 'game' at play here, that goes far beyond this dense physical world, and we each and every one of us has an integral part to play.


I'm also thinking about Bill's advice in the Anglo-American thread, about remembering who we are, and why each one of us came here (paraphrasing slightly).


This is of utmost importance at this moment, in my humble opinion.


I've really tuned in to, in these past weeks, the inner knowledge that I chose to come here for THIS fight. The just fight.



And i've been ruefully laughing at myself for that :facepalm:

I also had a very strange experience in January. It did not involve me hearing any info, but it felt very purposeful. Along with many other strange things that have happened to me throughout my life, I would really like to know what is really going on around us.

It does seem that different strains have been released in different places. Probably more to come. Because even if you consider the original strain mutating, that just doesn't make the pace of this virus make sense.

I guess the worker bees are going to get very busy very soon.

As for the title of this thread, it does seem that there is an agenda - it is just that although I can connect the dots and see it, I just don't want to.

The question becomes; What to do about it?

[Bill Ryan]

Some of the possible (or probable!) agendas are fairly obvious.


Vaccinations
Personal monitoring of movement
Controlled demolition of the global economy into a second Great Depression (poor people are easier to control)
(possibly) Some kind of ID chipping (or a step in that direction)
(possibly) A step in the direction of removing cash, by making cash feel 'dangerous' or 'uncool'
(possibly) Global food shortages, which if severe result in famine, further deaths and measurable population reduction. (However, that's longer-term.)

But I'm increasingly concerned that there may [also] be an agenda to destroy small businesses.

In the US, it sure looks like that. It's becoming rapidly clear that the small business loans are really hard to get — which is either even more naive, administrative incompetence, or part of a co-ordinated Machiavellian plan to take out Middle America.

As a standalone item, this hasn't been mentioned all that much. But it will be in the days and weeks to come, and quickly, too. Watch the political storm in the US heat up, fast. There are going to be some open shouting matches on prime time news TV.

All this is because paradoxically and nonsensically, if you don't already have a loan with a bank, you're ineligible. Go figure. It almost makes zero sense whatsoever unless there was a deliberate sabotage effort to make it near-impossible.

The more I stare at this slow-motion catastrophe, the more I see very bad times ahead indeed. The gathering clouds really are becoming very dark.

Have to mention this excellent talk by Gigi Young on the virus and the opportunity for martial law and forced vaccinations.

That is the same thing early Asian (https://www.globalresearch.ca/china-coronavirus-shocking-update/5705196) research suggested. Taiwan and Korea did not get theirs from China. Wuhan was undoubtedly the place where it "erupted", but that really says nothing to the actual origin, and the most variety of strains is in the U. S.

The four Senators benefitted from stock sales, particularly Richard Burr, one of the few who voted against Stop Trading On Congressional Knowledge--he has been sued under this very act some weeks ago. Big gap in the "message to the wealthy" from a Senate Intelligence Committee meeting on Jan. 24, the dumping of stocks, and then a more "serious message" to the voter base in mid-February when they were done selling.

If the report on Johnson and Johnson is correct--they get a contract to unleash whatever vaccine they develop within a year--is correct, that is a benefit. There should be some kind of public record about this; I am not sure where to look.

The thing smells like 9/11: "we had predicted this exact plane-into-building scenario but our defenses were down because we were wargaming something very similar when it happened" -- "we had gamed a pandemic and although two years ago were called the most capable to deal with it, but we really had no supplies or means so we couldn't stop it" (just now shattering all world records of over 1,000 deaths in a day). Both cases appear to involve insider trading. In both cases, the supreme mighty giant fell totally flat.

Now there is big money for Maduro on drug charges even though 90% of narcotics leave Colombia on the Pacific side.

However at this time I would also tend to say that China, Russia, and Iran benefit, by showing themselves as capable performers and better partners than the old monopoly. It is something like a sea of clash of various agendas. So on the "plot" side, it is always a valid question--motive and benefit. But as an opportunist, if I find a nest egg in a mess you made, and keep it for myself, this was unplanned by you, and only semi-planned by me waiting for a chance. I may have been prone to the same temptation, profit motive and control, but if I shark tank the first guy into my pocket, I can disguise myself in his agenda however I want or not.

If we study spies, we know Intelligence is already difficult--i. e. vetting an individual and their story. Counter-intelligence is exponentially more difficult--inserting a propaganda that will withstand multiple professional attempts at vetting. Counter-counter-intelligence is so exponentially more difficult that it is generally considered impossible, very little time or resources would be put into something like that: vetting a story, deciding it is propaganda, and then reversing or taking control of enemy's own propaganda against him. With the virus, it is impossible to argue against the Asians, since all they did was compile data that we cannot improve; the State Department and President have a silly habit of trying to make it Wuhan or Chinese every time it is spoken. I suppose that is propaganda when you tell the World Health Organization what to name an entity.

There are too many uncontrollables, it is difficult for me to conceive it would come down to a spy dropping some powder in a marketplace. A very insane rogue agent, maybe, but probably not an organization. Accidental release of something manufactured could always be possible. The chance that it is not manufactured still seems possible. Whereas 9/11 must have been intentionally done by someone, I am not sure that follows here.

[fractal being]

As I've stated elsewhere (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?110496-Countries-Remaining-Independent-From-2020-NWO-Agenda-Escape-From-Tyranny-Resources&p=1348048&viewfull=1#post1348048) I've been trying to follow up on Covid-19 developments in different countries. Well as expected the progression and the severity of the disease differs from country to country, however what recently (admittedly quite late based on the time I've spent on this) attracted my attention was an eerie discovery that many of the press briefings had a strange similarity, namely their backgrounds...


Greece

Iceland

43035


Italy

43036


Maine, USA
43037


Trying to find images from press conferences in other countries proved to be like looking for a needle in a haystack, so I would greatly appreciate your input if you've noticed similar symbols in press conferences in your own countries. After all Avalon is a global community :bigsmile:


Trying to look further into this, apparently the logo used is the insignia for the civil defense agencies in different countries globally (https://www.google.com/search?q=civil+defense+logo&client=avg&bih=512&biw=1034&hl=en-US&tbm=isch&source=iu&ictx=1&fir=8SAiizP6A5TixM%253A%252CKIQzCKwiRdXzeM%252C_&vet=1&usg=AI4_-kRBwy7jbuC9JsU8u-STS21OyTY5-w&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiys6SR5c3oAhUrn-AKHQFbBs8Q9QEwB3oECAgQNQ). Even the US that doesn't have a civil defense agency any longer has incorporated it in the FEMA logo

3) The conversation Elainie had with her ex-CIA friend (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?109753-The-Wuhan-Coronavirus-Covid-19-the-Honey-Badger-virus&p=1342121&viewfull=1#post1342121), who was "shaken up" and intending to head for the hills if she could, before Sept/October. She (Elaine's friend) said it was 100% a bioweapon. I know Elainie, and whatever she reports can be totally relied on.


4) Here's what I've not previously reported: a recent (21 March) video from Dr Steven Greer. He focuses largely on collective meditation to handle the serious problem.

But from about 21:50, he says he consulted with a contact of his in military biowarfare about the virus, and was told that "there are two, possibly three, strains circulating".

About 10 mins later, he's asked a question about origins of the virus. He's extremely cagey, saying that if he revealed everything he knew about this he'd be "banned from YouTube".

He's very clearly implying he knows, or has been told, that it's a bioweapon.

At 55:00 he again says he'll "not speak about the origins of the virus on this platform".

At 1:04:30, he says (very carefully!): "Whether this is a crisis that's completely natural, or partially natural and partially augmented, doesn't matter."
(His stance is that we just have to make the best of "the hand of cards we've been dealt".)

I want to add my friend is still with a three letter agency, I am just not sure which one (nor can she ever tell me until she no longer works for them) she has already been CIA and FBI, so is it NSA? DoD? I do not know. I do know she works counter terrorism.

Is it just me, but i am not "allowed" to see the link posted <<<< The conversation Elainie had with her ex-CIA friend, >>>> even after logging out and in within a minute

Not sure if had been posted somewhere, but Trevor Noah's interview with Bill Gates about the pandemic was rather "interesting"

Some of the possible (or probable!) agendas are fairly obvious.


Vaccinations
Personal monitoring of movement
Controlled demolition of the global economy into a second Great Depression (poor people are easier to control)
(possibly) Some kind of ID chipping (or a step in that direction)
(possibly) A step in the direction of removing cash, by making cash feel 'dangerous' or 'uncool'
(possibly) Global food shortages, which if severe result in famine, further deaths and measurable population reduction. (However, that's longer-term.)

But I'm increasingly concerned that there may [also] be an agenda to destroy small businesses.

In the US, it sure looks like that. It's becoming rapidly clear that the small business loans are really hard to get — which is either even more naive, administrative incompetence, or part of a co-ordinated Machiavellian plan to take out Middle America.

As a standalone item, this hasn't been mentioned all that much. But it will be in the days and weeks to come, and quickly, too. Watch the political storm in the US heat up, fast. There are going to be some open shouting matches on prime time news TV.

All this is because paradoxically and nonsensically, if you don't already have a loan with a bank, you're ineligible. Go figure. It almost makes zero sense whatsoever unless there was a deliberate sabotage effort to make it near-impossible.

The more I stare at this slow-motion catastrophe, the more I see very bad times ahead indeed. The gathering clouds really are becoming very dark.

You know if I was a conspiracy theorist, and I am not, I would see this COVID-19 reaction as the coming of all their Christmases for those in the state and academia who have always hated the self-employed, entrepreneurs, property owners and small businessmen, the sort of people who don't like being told what to do by the state and who, apparently are to blame for all the problems of the world from homelessness to climate change. Suddenly they are ruined and will now have listen to and kiss the backsides of state officials or starve.

The underclass, they are fine, they always have been. They live on the dole and public handouts so nothing will change for them.

The workers in factories or shops will simply change over from working for the private sector to whatever department of the government has taken over their former owner's business.

Public sector workers will also be fine, they will in fact be the new heroes and their managers will become intoxicated with new-found power.

The billionaires, well needless to say they will be hunky dory, they might see their personal fortunes decline by a few percentage points for a year or so, but that will be small change to them.

The celebrity class, the elite sportsmen and Hollywood stars will also be fine, they will continue to spout the government's message and will be well rewarded for doing so.

So who will be wiped out? The small shop owner, the contractor, the self-employed businessman, the landlord, the independent trader, the small factory owner, the sort of people who learned to grow up and wipe their own asses. The people who made their own decisions about life, who preferred to look after their own affairs, their own family's health care and education, their own pensions and who often voted in ways their 'betters' preferred they didn't.

Bang! They are destroyed through no fault of their own but because of the incompetence of governments all around the world. They must pay the penalty of this crisis, they must accept that the way of life they once knew is now over, they must now be supplicants of the state and abide by the state's directions or find they have no roof over their heads.

Like I say, I am not a conspiracy theorist...

[Bill Ryan]

My guess would be DOD, Elainie.

Mine too but I don't dare ask!The way they do this in the movies is to say:

"I'm assuming you work for the DoD. If not, please correct me! But if you say nothing, and there's 10 seconds of silence, I'll make my own conclusion."

Yes totally agree Bill and I have pointed out the danger to the self employed -- all my family are.
The Federation of Small Businesses has in the past pointed out that the majority of people are actually employed by small businesses. It is noticed when a big firm employing thousands goes bust but the possibility of many small firms going to the wall would have a horrendous effect on the percentage of unemployed.
That may well be part of the plan then big brother will step in to appear to be the saviour of the situation -- just a little too late.

How does the secret Continuity of Government plan fit into Covid-19 pandemic. My thoughts (https://grayseconomy.com/2020/04/04/how-does-the-secret-continuity-of-government-plan-fit-into-covid-19-pandemic/).

[Deborah (ahamkara)]

Among the many agendas appears to be the destruction of the small business owner.. This is also the first rung on the ladder to a more comfortable life in many countries. Remove this and you effectively raise the drawbridge to the castle. The masses will have their drive through restaurants with toxic, corn byproduct GMO style food, perhaps a few government controlled places for alcohol and low level socializing. Travel is greatly restricted with the destruction of all but a few airlines. (The wealthy have their own planes). Education (in America) has already surrendered to Google and Google classroom, so that content is easily controlled and shaped. I disagree with Bill on the fact this is out of control. I believe the simulation has been run and continues to be gamed as the situation rolls out. The plan is working.

[Ratszinger]

The thought occurred to me that the elite can't get away with telling us things are so in other parts of the world if citizen tourists are there with their Iphones taking real time video to prove the films shown by the gov. are lies! The only way they can get away with their crap and lies is to give all those pesky eyes that would witness and film these events a reason to run off and hide to bunker down! Now they can tell you whatever and you can't verify or prove it wrong you just take their word for it!

When they show a big military show in NK an tell the world Kim is in rebellion again and an American tourist ruins the whole show by taking a video of the same place showing markets full of peaceful smiling people it kind of takes the wind out of the sails of the agenda of the elite doesn't it? That actually happened! And now they don't have to worry about that anymore do they? Everyone that would catch the next lie is scared in their homes. How convenient. This means the next false flag event will likely be one heck of a big event!

Everything Alex Jones warned about 15 years ago is coming to pass. It's all so convenient for the powers that be also. They've wanted for years to have a digital vote. Now they have the justification. How convenient

They've wanted to be able to shut people down for years but a pesky thing called rights stood in the way. Now they have that justification to override those rights. How convenient.

They've wanted to raise prices for food and create an even distribution for food, other supplies, money an so on and now guess what? How convenient.

They've wanted to force vaccines for how long? Now they have the reason and justification to do just that! How convenient.

They've wanted to take guns and to round people up and track them and now due to a contagion that may effect the mind drastically they have the reason and justification to sequester all guns before those people with them catch this disease and go nuts with them! And doctors back this up, Cuemo or whatever his name is backs this up with his crazy testimony. OH HOW CONVENIENT!

And personal privacy has always been an issue but now they have the justification to tag you with an ankle bracelet and make it known by apps of your contagion status distancing you from society! How convenient!

Gathering in groups much? Nope! No more armies of men to threaten the ruling party! How convenient!!! See it yet!!?

Media Censoring Medical Doctors Saving Lives with Vitamin C for COVID19 – Reduces Need for Ventilators
April 4, 2020
Coronavirus XIV: The Good News is Still There But Not Reported By MSM
by David Brownstein, M.D.
DrBrownstein.com
https://vaccineimpact.com/2020/media-censoring-medical-doctors-saving-lives-with-vitamin-c-for-covid19-reduces-need-for-ventilators/

"You wouldn’t know it, but there is still good news about COVID-19 out there. Listening to the media would make you believe that the sky is falling and we are all going to die from coronavirus.

Before I get into the good news, let me preface this article by stating that I am not minimizing the dangers of COVID-19. It is a serious illness as I have observed in both patients and friends. Thousands have died and, unfortunately, more deaths are coming.

However, our fear level is much too high for this illness. Children are not dying in droves from this. Nor are children being maimed and paralyzed. This is not Ebola or hemorrhagic fever where the death rate is 50% or higher in those that get it. The final death rate from COVID-19 will probably be at or slightly higher than the regular yearly influenza death rate of 0.01%–once we start testing everybody to see how prevalent this illness actually is.

Original modelling estimates predicted that millions could die in the US. Dr. Fauci stated recently that the worst of the recent modelling estimates may result in 100,000-200,000 deaths. The 100,000-200,000 number is awful.

But, it needs to be put in proper perspective. Let’s say that 200,000 Americans die of COVID-19. That means that COVID-19 will kill o.o6% of our population (200,000/329,500,000). In other words, 99.94% of us will survive. If it kills 100,000, 0.03% of us will die and 99.97% of us will live.

The death of 200,000 Americans is a big deal. But, I don’t think it deserves the fear level we are at right now.

Another important point about these numbers is that COVID-19 primarily kills the elderly and those with co-morbid conditions. Those who do not fall into those categories have a lower risk of death from it.

This should be wakeup call for all Americans to get healthy. We are too heavy, eat poor diets and don’t exercise enough. Adopting a holistic health plan can not only help you feel better, it can lower your risk of dying from many diseases including COVID-19.

For comparison, 630,000 Americans die from heart disease each year.

So, my advice is stop watching the news. They revel in the bad news and censor the good news.

What good news am I talking about?

How about this news: Three US hospitals use of IV vitamin C and other low-cost, readily available drugs cut the death-rate of COVID-19-without the use of ventilators! A press release dated March 30, 2020 stated:

“If you can administer Vitamin C intravenously starting in the Emergency Room and every 6 hours thereafter, while in the hospital, the mortality rate of this disease and the need for mechanical ventilators will likely be greatly reduced,” says Dr. Pierre Kory, the Medical Director of the Trauma and Life Support Center and Chief of the Critical Care Service at the University of Wisconsin in Madison.

He explains that it’s the inflammation sparked by the Coronavirus, not the virus itself, that kills patients. Inflammation causes a condition called Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), which damages the lungs so that patients, suffering fever, fatigue, and the sense that their inner chest is on fire, eventually cannot breathe without the help of a ventilator.

The vitamin C is a combination therapy developed in 2017 by Dr. Paul Marik at Eastern Virginia Medical School. He gives critically ill patients IV doses of hydrocortisone, vitamin C, and vitamin B1 within six hours of entering the emergency room. Dr. Marik reported a significantly lowered death rate in those treated with his regimen.

When COVID-19 came to Virginia, Dr. Marik used his protocol. He reported saving four COVID-19 patients including an 86-year-old man admitted to the hospital with 100% oxygen. Elderly people on oxygen usually do not survive COVID-19.

Dr. J. Varon at United General Hospital in Houston reported saving 16 lives with this protocol. He reports that his patients are getting off the ventilator at 48 hours instead of 10-21 days!

My faithful readers know that I have been yelling as loudly as I can that all COVID-19 patients should be getting vitamin C IVs.

In fact, they should be getting vitamin C IVs within six hours of entering the ER because data shows a markedly reduced mortality rate if the IV is started within six hours of admission. A delay above that markedly increases the death rate.

Once 12 hours has passed, it is too late. There is no mortality benefit from the IV protocol.

So why isn’t IV vitamin C along with the other therapies Dr. Marik recommends being used in every COVID-19 patient? I am rarely at a loss for words, but here I am.

It is infuriating. I have shown you our success in treating COVID-19 patients with a holistic protocol that includes oral dosing of vitamins A, C, D, and iodine as well as IV vitamin C, ozone, and hydrogen peroxide.

I passed along the information I presented above to two local hospitals and offered my services to explain how to properly administer IV nutrients. To date, I have heard nothing. Yet, many continue to die as conventional medicine has little to offer COVID-19 patients.

Conventional medicine can wait for a vaccine. At the Center for Holistic Medicine, we know there is not time to wait for a vaccine. Natural therapies work. It is time for you to find a holistic doctor who understands that the best way to treat COVID-19 (and many other illnesses) is to host’s immune system so that it can appropriately fight back and overcome the disease.

Final Thoughts
The press release regarding the success with vitamin C in treating COVID was sent to me late at night Monday (March 30, 2020). On Tuesday morning, I had a meeting with my nurses and said,

“Finally, the hospitals are going to start using vitamin C on COVID patients. They are going to see what we have been seeing.”

I guess I called that one wrong. I thought the press release would be the lead story on Fox, CNN, MSN, and every other media outlet. I thought there would be run on IV vitamin C. I guess good news is not worth reporting.

I say turn off the news. It is not worth watching. In fact, it is shameful.

Where are the vitamin C reports? What about the reports that hydroxychloroquine appears to be helping?

Folks, there is other good news about COVID that I want to share. I will report that to you tomorrow after I do a little more research.

It is most important to keep in mind that if the worst-case modelling estimate comes true–200,000 die– 99.94% of us will be ok.

And, I don’t believe those estimates at all. More about that later.

To All Our Health,
DrB"

Bringing my older post over here per Bill's instruction.

So this (now pulled...? *see source note below) publication seems to directly contradict the earlier published-then-pulled study from New Delhi University (Bill had archived this study before it was pulled and posted it weeks ago in the original thread) which stated HIV protein spikes/compounds were discovered on the SARS-CoV strain (novel Coronavirus). Was there any follow up or re-publication of the New Delhi study? Curious to see what could have changed in 2 months when the earlier indication showed biological manipulation thus intent....

The coronavirus did not escape from a lab. Here's how we know.
By Jeanna Bryner - Live Science Editor-in-Chief 3/20/20

The persistent myth can be put to bed.

As the novel coronavirus causing COVID-19 spreads across the globe, with cases surpassing 284,000 worldwide today (March 20), misinformation is spreading almost as fast.

One persistent myth is that this virus, called SARS-CoV-2, was made by scientists and escaped from a lab in Wuhan, China, where the outbreak began.
A new analysis of SARS-CoV-2 may finally put that latter idea to bed. A group of researchers compared the genome of this novel coronavirus with the seven other coronaviruses known to infect humans: SARS, MERS and SARS-CoV-2, which can cause severe disease; along with HKU1, NL63, OC43 and 229E, which typically cause just mild symptoms, the researchers wrote March 17 in the journal Nature Medicine.

"Our analyses clearly show that SARS-CoV-2 is not a laboratory construct or a purposefully manipulated virus," they write in the journal article. Kristian Andersen, an associate professor of immunology and microbiology at Scripps Research, and his colleagues looked at the genetic template for the spike proteins that protrude from the surface of the virus. The coronavirus uses these spikes to grab the outer walls of its host's cells and then enter those cells. They specifically looked at the gene sequences responsible for two key features of these spike proteins: the grabber, called the receptor-binding domain, that hooks onto host cells; and the so-called cleavage site that allows the virus to open and enter those cells.

That analysis showed that the "hook" part of the spike had evolved to target a receptor on the outside of human cells called ACE2, which is involved in blood pressure regulation. It is so effective at attaching to human cells that the researchers said the spike proteins were the result of natural selection and not genetic engineering.

Here's why: SARS-CoV-2 is very closely related to the virus that causes severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), which fanned across the globe nearly 20 years ago. Scientists have studied how SARS-CoV differs from SARS-CoV-2 — with several key letter changes in the genetic code. Yet in computer simulations, the mutations in SARS-CoV-2 don't seem to work very well at helping the virus bind to human cells. If scientists had deliberately engineered this virus, they wouldn't have chosen mutations that computer models suggest won't work. But it turns out, nature is smarter than scientists, and the novel coronavirus found a way to mutate that was better — and completely different— from anything scientists could have created, the study found.

Another nail in the "escaped from evil lab" theory? The overall molecular structure of this virus is distinct from the known coronaviruses and instead most closely resembles viruses found in bats and pangolins that had been little studied and never known to cause humans any harm.

"If someone were seeking to engineer a new coronavirus as a pathogen, they would have constructed it from the backbone of a virus known to cause illness," according to a statement from Scripps.

Will the coronavirus trigger a global food crisis?

3 April, 2020


With many planes grounded, shipments of vegetables from Africa to Europe or fruit from South America to the US are being disrupted
The lack of labour is also affecting planting and harvesting and could cause shortages and rising prices for staple crops

The coronavirus pandemic has disrupted global food supplies and is causing labour shortages in agriculture worldwide.

Panic buying by shoppers cleared supermarket shelves of staples such as pasta and flour as populations worldwide prepared for lockdowns.

Meat and dairy producers as well as fruit and vegetable farmers struggled to shift supplies from restaurants to grocery stores, creating the perception of shortages for consumers.

Retailers and authorities say there are no underlying shortages and supplies of most products have been or will be replenished. Bakery and pasta firms in Europe and North America have increased production.

Food firms say panic purchasing is subsiding as households have stocked up and are adjusting to lockdown routines.

The logistics to get food from the field to the plate, however, are being increasingly affected and point to longer-term problems.

In the short-term, lack of air freight and trucker shortages are disrupting deliveries of fresh food.

Longer-term, lack of labour is affecting planting and harvesting and could cause shortages and rising prices for staple crops in a throwback to the food crises that shook developing nations a decade ago.

What’s disrupting food supply?

With many planes grounded and ship containers hard to find after the initial coronavirus crisis in China, shipments of vegetables from Africa to Europe or fruit from South America to the United States are being disrupted.

A labour shortage could also cause crops to rot in the fields.

As spring starts in Europe, farms are rushing to find enough workers to pick strawberries and asparagus, after border closures prevented the usual flow of foreign labourers. France has called on its own citizens to help offset an estimated shortfall of 200,000 workers.

More wide-scale crop losses are looming in India, where a lockdown has sent masses of workers home, leaving farms and markets short of hands as staple crops like wheat near harvest.

Is food going to cost more?

Wheat futures surged in March to two-month highs, partly due to the spike in demand for bakery and pasta goods, while corn sank to a 3-1/2 year low as its extensive use in biofuel exposed it to an oil price collapse.

Benchmark Thai white rice prices have already hit their highest level in eight years.

Swings in commodity markets are not necessarily passed on in prices of grocery goods, as food firms typically buy raw materials in advance. A sustained rise in prices will, however, eventually be passed on to consumers.

Some poorer countries subsidise food to keep prices stable.

The United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organisation has warned that a rush to buy by countries that rely on imports of staple foods could fuel global food inflation, despite ample reserves of staple crops.

Fresh produce such as fruit or fish or unprocessed grains such as rice reflect more immediately changes in supply and demand.

Will there be enough food if the crisis lasts?

Analysts say global supplies of the most widely consumed food crops are adequate. Wheat production is projected to be at record levels in the year ahead.

However, the concentration of exportable supply of some food commodities in a small number of countries and export restrictions by big suppliers concerned they have enough supply at home can make world supply more fragile than headline figures suggest.

Another source of tension in global food supply could be China: there are signs the country is scooping up foreign agricultural supplies as it emerges from its coronavirus shutdown and rebuilds its massive pork industry after a devastating African swine fever epidemic.

This is coming from a 2010 document produced by the Rockefeller foundation in which they imagine future scenarios. Some eery similarities to our current situation
https://twitter.com/truthseeker7373/status/1246358913001361408?s=21

If you want to dig deeper into the document as a whole you can read it in its entirety here: https://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/sociopolitica/sociopol_rockefeller10.htm

The part which the video is referencing is called Lock step scenario, here is the first part


In 2012, the pandemic that the world had been anticipating for years finally hit.

Unlike 2009's H1N1, this new influenza strain - originating from wild geese - was extremely virulent and deadly.

Even the most pandemic-prepared nations were quickly overwhelmed when the virus streaked around the world, infecting nearly 20 percent of the global population and killing 8 million in just seven months, the majority of them healthy young adults.

The pandemic also had a deadly effect on economies:
international mobility of both people and goods screeched to a halt, debilitating industries like tourism and breaking global supply chains.

Even locally, normally bustling shops and office buildings sat empty for months, devoid of both employees and customers.
The pandemic blanketed the planet - though disproportionate numbers died in Africa, Southeast Asia, and Central America, where the virus spread like wildfire in the absence of official containment protocols. But even in developed countries, containment was a challenge.

The United States' initial policy of "strongly discouraging" citizens from flying proved deadly in its leniency, accelerating the spread of the virus not just within the U.S. but across borders.

However, a few countries did fare better - China in particular.

The Chinese government's quick imposition and enforcement of mandatory quarantine for all citizens, as well as its instant and near-hermetic sealing off of all borders, saved millions of lives, stopping the spread of the virus far earlier than in other countries and enabling a swifter post- pandemic recovery.

China's government was not the only one that took extreme measures to protect its citizens from risk and exposure. During the pandemic, national leaders around the world flexed their authority and imposed airtight rules and restrictions, from the mandatory wearing of face masks to body-temperature checks at the entries to communal spaces like train stations and supermarkets.

Even after the pandemic faded, this more authoritarian control and oversight of citizens and their activities stuck and even intensified. In order to protect themselves from the spread of increasingly global problems - from pandemics and transnational terrorism to environmental crises and rising poverty - leaders around the world took a firmer grip on power.

At first, the notion of a more controlled world gained wide acceptance and approval.

Citizens willingly gave up some of their sovereignty - and their privacy - to more paternalistic states in exchange for greater safety and stability. Citizens were more tolerant, and even eager, for top-down direction and oversight, and national leaders had more latitude to impose order in the ways they saw fit.

In developed countries, this heightened oversight took many forms:
biometric IDs for all citizens, for example, and tighter regulation of key industries whose stability was deemed vital to national interests.
In many developed countries, enforced cooperation with a suite of new regulations and agreements slowly but steadily restored both order and, importantly, economic growth.

Across the developing world, however, the story was different - and much more variable.

5G (required for 'Internet of Things')


Take a look at the concept of smart cities (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_city), then it becomes obvious why in a smart city there is no place for traditional small businesses. Pepe Escobar described a very similar scenario like you did.

The most plausible scenario for our immediate future reads like clusters of smart cities linked by AI, with people monitored full time and duly micro-chipped doing what they need with a unified digital currency, in an atmosphere of Bentham’s and Foucault’s Panopticum on overdrive.

Ground Control to Planet Lockdown: This Is Only a Test
By Pepe Escobar and crossposted with Strategic Culture Foundation

The meager $1,200 checks promised to Americans are a de facto precursor of the much touted Universal Basic Income (UBI). They may become permanent as tens of millions of people will be permanently unemployed. That will facilitate the transition towards a totally automated, 24/7 economy run by AI – thus the importance of 5G.

And that’s where ID2020 comes in.

AI and ID2020

The European Commission is involved in a crucial but virtually unknown project, CREMA (https://cordis.europa.eu/project/id/637066) (Cloud Based Rapid Elastic Manufacturing) which aims to facilitate the widest possible implementation of AI in conjunction to the advent of a cashless One-World system.

The end of cash necessarily implies a One-World government capable of dispensing – and controlling – UBI; a de facto full accomplishment of Foucault’s studies on biopolitics. Anyone is liable to be erased from the system if an algorithm equals this individual with dissent.

It gets even sexier when absolute social control is promoted as an innocent vaccine (https://findbiometrics.com/new-id2020-project-to-build-biometric-id-program-around-infant-immunization/).

ID2020 (https://euvsdisinfo.eu/report/the-coronavirus-moves-us-towards-a-totalitarian-state-of-the-world-and-the-introduction-of-agenda-id2020/) is self-described as a benign alliance of “public-private partners”. Essentially, it is an electronic ID platform based on generalized vaccination. And its starts at birth; newborns will be provided with a “portable and persistent biometrically-linked digital identity.”

GAVI (https://www.gavi.org/), the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization, pledges to “protect people’s health “ and provide “immunization for all”. Top partners and sponsors, apart from the WHO, include, predictably, Big Pharma.

At the ID2020 Alliance summit last September in New York, it was decided that the “Rising to the Good ID Challenge” program would be launched in 2020. That was confirmed by the World Economic Forum (WEF) this past January in Davos. The digital identity will be tested with the government of Bangladesh.

That poses a serious question: was ID2020 timed to coincide with what a crucial sponsor, the WHO, qualified as a pandemic? Or was a pandemic absolutely crucial to justify the launch of ID2020?

As game-changing trial runs go, nothing of course beats Event 201 (http://www.centerforhealthsecurity.org/event201/), which took place less than a month after ID2020.

Starting to realize why places like Derinkuyu existed and why castles and homes even in the USA were all linked in early settler days by secret underground passages! Not because of a virus but just to gather in any size groups without big brother noticing or to communicate or to make any plans at all that the police state may disagree with!

Another thing going on in the UK that is puzzling me. Why are we clapping the NHS? It is right and just to applaud NHS workers, but that is not the same thing. Virtually everyone has reason to thank good nurses, doctors and paramedics. But if we are to praise large organisations for how effectively they have dealt with the coronavirus crisis, we should be clapping vigorously for retailers like Sainsbury’s, Tesco, Waitrose and Morrisons, who have responded nimbly to sudden extra demand for one of life’s basics – food. We should give only rather tepid applause for the efforts of the NHS to look after another of life’s basics – health.

As its name suggests, the National Health Service is there to serve the health of the nation. In this crisis, the roles have reversed – it is seen as the duty of the nation to serve the NHS. "Protect the NHS. Save lives", says the slogan, in that rather surprising order. Children are made to recite it like a prayer. How are we to do this?

We are told (ordered?) that we must help the NHS by avoiding hospitals and surgeries. The Government’s policy of lockdown is in significant part dictated by the demands not of patients, but of the NHS, and by its lack of adaptability and readiness.

Charles Lieber arrested and charged

From about 2 hours ago from John B. Wells Twitter account sourced from @AvalonForum (https://twitter.com/JohnBWellsCTM/status/1246505891911925762) I'd be interested to know just how 'current' this is. John B. is usually pretty good at being on the case but some reassurance that this is a news report from today will help - it certainly seems so. (I may need to move this to current news and updates too, but, the content and its implications should do just as well here - read past the text and listen to the broadcast from ABC.)

It appears to confirm the strain taken to China did indeed originate from a US laboratory with Chinese laboratory assistants under the employ of the CCP army. In the meantime a search for the other really important University of Quito paper continues - that's the '3rd' strain hCoV-19 Bill has previously mentioned.

I do agree with much of your sentiment here. I've shared this before with friends and I'll say something similar here; this is a really cynical use of the NHS to maximise emotional effect - classic PR.

'Protect the NHS' as a part of this PR babble sticks in the craw as it may be a way of using a kind of doublespeak for:


"We need it [NHS] to appear to be in the very best condition possible, despite years of wilfully and deliberately under funding it, so that it appeals to the highest bidder, when we sell it off." (something along those lines).

So, definitely not 'protected' in the way the message or narrative is perceived generally. (Perception management, in other words.)

The repetitive mantra - the entire script - was drafted before, with plenty of knowledge aforethought.

This whole PR exercise reeks of (and clearly is) a kind of military psy-op, approved by the Admiralty and filtered down through the SPADs in Whitehall. (For more on how propagandists really control governments, see L. Fletcher Prouty and his first-hand testimonies in "The Secret Team").

The MO remains unchanged.

The Johnson and Johnson (https://www.jnj.com/johnson-johnson-announces-a-lead-vaccine-candidate-for-covid-19-landmark-new-partnership-with-u-s-department-of-health-human-services-and-commitment-to-supply-one-billion-vaccines-worldwide-for-emergency-pandemic-use) situation is real; in fact, their research began at Harvard Medical School in January.

The vaccine candidate is based on a non-replicating Ad-26 (https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2020/03/1-billion-bet-pharma-giant-and-us-government-team-all-out-coronavirus-vaccine-push) common cold virus, tested on mice, soon on monkeys.

According to Forbes (https://www.forbes.com/sites/thomasbrewster/2020/03/30/the-us-just-signed-a-450-million-coronavirus-vaccine-contract-with-johnson--johnson/#507b9df52946), it is the largest such coronavirus deal ever, right on the heels of some $150 million "anti-viral" investment.

The deal was signed with the Health and Human Services Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR)...the $456 million award related to a collaboration with ASPR’s Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), as announced in February. That work was built on previous contracts for developing countermeasures for other influenzas.

This is in tandem with prior vaccine projects for Ebola, AIDS, etc., so it certainly reinforces the regime of injections. Superficially, it looks kind of normal, but J & J's backlog of lawsuits does not build much confidence. There are other vaccine developments in China and England, at least, so this benefit may be limited to how much the American public will be scared or legally forced into taking it. Whether alternate treatments like vitamins C and D, silver, oregano, etc., receive equal promotion, seems unlikely.

The Coronavirus Pandemic Will Forever Alter the World Order
The U.S. must protect its citizens from disease while starting the urgent work of planning for a new epoch.

Apr 3, 2020

By Henry A. Kissinger | The Wall Street Journal

The surreal atmosphere of the Covid-19 pandemic calls to mind how I felt as a young man in the 84th Infantry Division during the Battle of the Bulge. Now, as in late 1944, there is a sense of inchoate danger, aimed not at any particular person, but striking randomly and with devastation. But there is an important difference between that faraway time and ours. American endurance then was fortified by an ultimate national purpose. Now, in a divided country, efficient and farsighted government is necessary to overcome obstacles unprecedented in magnitude and global scope. Sustaining the public trust is crucial to social solidarity, to the relation of societies with each other, and to international peace and stability.

Nations cohere and flourish on the belief that their institutions can foresee calamity, arrest its impact and restore stability. When the Covid-19 pandemic is over, many countries’ institutions will be perceived as having failed. Whether this judgment is objectively fair is irrelevant. The reality is the world will never be the same after the coronavirus. To argue now about the past only makes it harder to do what has to be done.

The coronavirus has struck with unprecedented scale and ferocity. Its spread is exponential: U.S. cases are doubling every fifth day. At this writing, there is no cure. Medical supplies are insufficient to cope with the widening waves of cases. Intensive-care units are on the verge, and beyond, of being overwhelmed. Testing is inadequate to the task of identifying the extent of infection, much less reversing its spread. A successful vaccine could be 12 to 18 months away.

The U.S. administration has done a solid job in avoiding immediate catastrophe. The ultimate test will be whether the virus’s spread can be arrested and then reversed in a manner and at a scale that maintains public confidence in Americans’ ability to govern themselves. The crisis effort, however vast and necessary, must not crowd out the urgent task of launching a parallel enterprise for the transition to the post-coronavirus order.

Leaders are dealing with the crisis on a largely national basis, but the virus’s society-dissolving effects do not recognize borders. While the assault on human health will—hopefully—be temporary, the political and economic upheaval it has unleashed could last for generations. No country, not even the U.S., can in a purely national effort overcome the virus. Addressing the necessities of the moment must ultimately be coupled with a global collaborative vision and program. If we cannot do both in tandem, we will face the worst of each.

Drawing lessons from the development of the Marshall Plan and the Manhattan Project, the U.S. is obliged to undertake a major effort in three domains. First, shore up global resilience to infectious disease. Triumphs of medical science like the polio vaccine and the eradication of smallpox, or the emerging statistical-technical marvel of medical diagnosis through artificial intelligence, have lulled us into a dangerous complacency. We need to develop new techniques and technologies for infection control and commensurate vaccines across large populations. Cities, states and regions must consistently prepare to protect their people from pandemics through stockpiling, cooperative planning and exploration at the frontiers of science.

Second, strive to heal the wounds to the world economy. Global leaders have learned important lessons from the 2008 financial crisis. The current economic crisis is more complex: The contraction unleashed by the coronavirus is, in its speed and global scale, unlike anything ever known in history. And necessary public-health measures such as social distancing and closing schools and businesses are contributing to the economic pain. Programs should also seek to ameliorate the effects of impending chaos on the world’s most vulnerable populations.

Third, safeguard the principles of the liberal world order. The founding legend of modern government is a walled city protected by powerful rulers, sometimes despotic, other times benevolent, yet always strong enough to protect the people from an external enemy. Enlightenment thinkers reframed this concept, arguing that the purpose of the legitimate state is to provide for the fundamental needs of the people: security, order, economic well-being, and justice. Individuals cannot secure these things on their own. The pandemic has prompted an anachronism, a revival of the walled city in an age when prosperity depends on global trade and movement of people.

The world’s democracies need to defend and sustain their Enlightenment values. A global retreat from balancing power with legitimacy will cause the social contract to disintegrate both domestically and internationally. Yet this millennial issue of legitimacy and power cannot be settled simultaneously with the effort to overcome the Covid-19 plague. Restraint is necessary on all sides—in both domestic politics and international diplomacy. Priorities must be established.

We went on from the Battle of the Bulge into a world of growing prosperity and enhanced human dignity. Now, we live an epochal period. The historic challenge for leaders is to manage the crisis while building the future. Failure could set the world on fire.

One of the first public reactions was the dumping of U. S. stocks, with most of that money going home with foreign investors. I can't recall the numbers, but it was a really big chunk.

March shows a record $109 billion (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-04-02/foreign-central-banks-sell-109-billion-of-treasuries-in-march?srnd=markets-vp) selloff of U. S. Treasuries by foreign banks.

Black Rock (http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/55019.htm) appears to be the beneficiary, as the manager of the new federal slush fund:

Wall Street has turned the Fed into a hedge fund. The Fed is going to own at least two thirds of all U.S. Treasury bills wallowing in the market before the end of the year.

The U.S. Treasury will be buying every security and loan in sight while the Fed will be the banker – financing the whole scheme.

So essentially this is a Fed/ Treasury merger. A behemoth dispensing loads of helicopter money – with BlackRock as the undisputable winner.


Normally, we get new Fed dollars by Treasuries: in other words, by a bond that promises to repay with interest, so it is hardly an even exchange. This Fed and the Black Rock are private and unelected. Nothing new, business as usual for them.

$350 billion (https://www.businessinsider.com/small-business-coronavirus-loan-rate-doubled-after-small-banks-complain-2020-4?r=MX&IR=T) of loans for small businesses saw the interest rate doubled, since small banks said they could not afford to lend that cheaply. Although the loan can be "forgiven"--i. e. the account is simply erased because the bank that did the loan put up nothing of their own and had no risk--they can only take a loss if you are trying to pay. It looks like if you spend the loan in eight weeks with at least 75% for approved expenses, then:

the Small Business Administration will forgive the portion of the loan proceeds that are used to cover the first eight weeks of payroll costs, rent, utilities, and mortgage interest.

There are at least 30 million businesses in this category (generally less than 500 employees). If there are that many, they cannot get much more than $10,000 out of this.

Dept. of Commerce says:

nearly a quarter of all small businesses had already shuttered in response to the pandemic, with another quarter less than two months away from insolvency.

But because

Small Business Administration rules calculate the aggregate number of employees for an enterprise seeking aid — meaning not just the individual small business but also other businesses in an investment firm's portfolio.

the richest firms (https://www.politico.com/news/2020/04/01/wall-street-titans-lobby-for-a-cut-of-small-business-bailout-160298) are lobbying their way into a share of the loans.

The Fed itself has mushroomed to over $5 trillion (https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-fed-balancesheet/fed-balance-sheet-increases-to-record-5-86-trillion-idUSKBN21K3HB) in assets.

"[The Rockefellers] have a great deal of power. But I believe that the generic Nazis I spoke of earlier—and I don't know any names—have taken over. They are the technocrats of the future. I found that some of these people actually believe their own fabrications. I was spinning yarn, making connections, and influencing perception. But once in a while I would run into a creature that truly believed that…you know what I mean. They are dangerous if anyone is dangerous. They want to take over the brain in a very precise way and, as one of my favorite philosophers Krishnamurti used to say, 'We each need to become aware soon, we need to find our own unfiltered awareness, we need to discover what our own unique perception is, because in the next century they are going to do wholesale experiments on the brain, and then…things will be more difficult.'" ~ Ellis Medavoy to Jon Rappoport, The Medavoy Interviews

Cui Bono? Who Benefits?

By Catherine Austin Fitts

Shock doctrine is upon us.

The economy in much of the developed world is being shut down by order of national governments. Borders are closing. People are quarantined and ordered to work or go to school from home. The explanations are bizarre, the facts hard to discern. We are told there is a coronavirus pandemic that started in Wuhan, China, spread to Iran and Italy, and then continued throughout the developed world. To date, the death toll is less than the annual flu.

When millions of people who are living paycheck to paycheck are laid off with no source of income, and hundreds of thousands of small businesses and cultural and sports events are bankrupted, there are plenty of reasons for panic in addition to reports of illness spreading across the globe. The lines at gun stores have never been this long.

Efforts to keep people from gathering and communicating—other than through highly surveilled online means—are suspicious. The Fed has injected $5+ trillion into the repo market, announced a new round of bond and mortgage-backed securities buying, and offered lines of credit to primary dealers, prompting the Wall Street Journal to announce this week, "Well, so much for timidity at the Federal Reserve." The U.S. and other governments are authorizing billions in emergency spending, while lobbyists are pushing for the end of bank reserve requirements and an escalation of war in the Middle East.

What is happening and why? I discussed this extensively last week on Money & Markets. However, I wanted to compare notes with Dr. Joseph P. Farrell, who agreed to join me for an in-depth discussion and some "high-octane speculation" regarding the dramatic changes underway.

Cui Bono? Who Benefits? Join us this week, as Joseph and I sleuth out what may really be going on and where all of this may lead.

In Let's Go to the Movies, I will review Maiden, an inspiring documentary about Tracy Edwards and the first all-female crew to compete in the Whitbread Round the World Race, a grueling yachting competition that covers 33,000 miles and lasts nine months. The story is an excellent reminder that real prosperity comes from the inspiration, hard work, and determination of individuals, caring families, and real teamwork. If you want a healthy economy, nurture and support strong individuals, rather than building more "things."

The immune system is our main protection against colds and flues, it needs upgrading by being exposed to the latest infection.
No one wants to go through the misery of any virus but its natures way of strengthening us in preparation for the next bug.
So those who have caught this current virus are not lepers, many have survived this and will therefore be all the more immune from the next episode --when ever that comes.
Loads of people are immune to the current virus -- look at the numbers checked who are negative.

All the Draconian measures are designed to promote what?

"To achieve One World Government, it is necessary to remove from the minds of men their individualism, their loyalty to their traditions and national identification."

[araucaria]

Just a reminder, if the agenda is still supposed to be population control, then it is an unmitigated disaster. We are very close to the magic number of 7 777 777 777 (https://www.worldometers.info/world-population/) – on 15th April by my reckoning.
There is an extra seven just while I have been writing this. Just watch these numbers ticking over, births over twice as fast as deaths. If you are a computer geek like Mr Gates, then these figures are a nightmare. For a man worth 99 billion and counting, you wonder what the problem is. The solution is not going to be making a few dodgy vaccines.

Top Doctor EXPOSES EVERYTHING The Deep State Is Trying To Hide About CV
xf-qv9o8nq8
Dr. Shiva Ayadurai, the inventor of email and candidate for the senate in Massachusetts, talks about the Sustainable Development Goals, signed off by the United Nations, called SDG-3 in 2015.

Based on the ignorance of Medical Doctors on the immune system and nutrition, the UN planned to use the corona virus as a hidden enemy to scare the hell out of people in order to mandate vaccinations for the “common good.”

One could imagine oneself why the pandemic started in Wuhan, at a time when there were heavy protests against the pollution.

Shiva explains how politicians tend to support the big companies by regulations that don’t serve anyone but those companies and why they also support mandating vaccines.

How the “cashless society” is being used for top-down ruling, monitoring, and even controlling expenditure. And where 5G comes in.

Although his way of talking is showing the sincere authentic personality of Shiva, this edited version of the original video is meant to make this video more understandable and available, for example by cutting out the many “okay’s” Shiva tends to use and the many elaborations.

[Gracy]

Another powerful piece by Abby indeed. Dovetails nicely in current time with journalistic colleague Max Blumenthal's book "The Management of Savegery":


Description

The rise of international jihad and Western ultra-nationalism

In the Management of Savagery, Max Blumenthal excavates the real story behind America’s dealings with the world and shows how the extremist forces that now threaten peace across the globe are the inevitable flowering of America’s imperial designs.

Washington’s secret funding of the mujahedin provoked the Russian invasion of Afghanistan in 1979. With guns and money, the United States has ever since sustained the extremists, including Osama Bin Laden, who have become its enemies. The Pentagon has trained and armed jihadist elements in Afghanistan, Syria, and Libya; it has launched military interventions to change regimes in the Middle East. In doing so, it created fertile ground for the Islamic State and brought foreign conflicts home to American soil.

These failed wars abroad have made the United States more vulnerable to both terrorism as well as native ultra-nationalism. The Trump presidency is the inevitable consequence of neoconservative imperialism in the post–Cold War age. Trump’s dealings in the Middle East are likely only to exacerbate the situation.

The Medically Induced Police State
By Donald Jeffries
Keeping It Unreal
April 3, 2020

Donald Jeffries is the author of the best seller "Hidden History: An Expose of Modern Crimes, Conspiracies, and Cover-Ups in American Politics," and Survival of the Richest. Long time JFK assassination researcher, his latest book is "Crimes and Cover Ups in American Politics: 1776-1963," which features a Foreword by Ron Paul.

https://www.lewrockwell.com/2020/03/donald-jeffries/the-coronavirus-hobgoblin/

"I have long feared a police state. Not the figurative one we’ve been letting develop for years now. I mean a literal one. Where they can stop you for any reason and ask you for your “papers.” Where they can restrict your movements, and your associations. Where they can confine you to your homes.

Yesterday, this became an unfortunate reality for me and all other Virginians. Mayor Ralph “Blackface” Northam signed an Executive Order that essentially locks my state down. Police can stop any motorist and ask where they are going. If they aren’t going to a doctor or the store, they can be charged with a misdemeanor. For now. And those essential personnel who are still working have been given papers. Yes, “show me your papers” is finally here in the land of the free.

Over the course of just a few weeks, America and most of the world has been subjected to a power play that rivals anything that George Orwell could have dreamed up. Whole countries locked down. People quarantined who have no illness. People restricted to their houses. “Social distancing” mandating that people stay six feet apart from one another. The closing down of virtually all businesses. No more going to the movies, or restaurants, or casinos, or concerts. Professional sports leagues and even the NCAA’s lucrative March Madness basketball tournament have been cancelled. All schools have been closed indefinitely.

So, surely all these draconian, unprecedented moves indicate that something really dangerous is going on? Instead, the world has basically come to a standstill over a virus strain, which has not even conclusively been proven to exist, that has killed a fraction of what the common flu kills every year, in this country and around the world.

The Coronavirus has been around for decades. Just look at the back of your can of Lysol. It informs you that their product protects you from “Human Coronavirus,” among other things. Many of us strongly suspect that cases of simple Coronavirus have been lumped in with those purporting to be COVID-19, the dastardly strain in question, which all the best and brightest “experts” inform us could spread across the world like wildfire.

The primary source for all the fear porn which has been emanating from our putrid state-run media for weeks, came from United Kingdom epidemiologist Neil Ferguson, who issued a dire warning that 2.2 million could die from COVID-19 in the United States alone. Without quite the attention given his initial predictions by the hysterical media, Ferguson quietly acknowledged last week that his numbers were wrong. Very, very wrong. His weak admission that perhaps 20,000 could die was not very convincing. And a pair of Stanford professors of medicine followed that up by saying the predictions of fatalities “may be too high by orders of magnitude.”

Instead of responding reasonably to these indications that those who initiated the alarmist talk from our journalists and politicians were utterly wrong, our leaders have doubled down on the heavy-handed, unwarranted response. More states like mine have gone into lock down mode. It is akin to Martial Law, without any visible troops in the streets. Given the lack of opposition to this authoritarianism, they haven’t needed any. Without firing a shot, as the saying goes.

Citizen journalists have posted a myriad of videos on You Tube, which depict not the “overwhelmed” hospitals that are literally bursting at the seams with corpses, but instead largely empty facilities. Jason Goodman has been filming around hospitals in New York City, the alleged epicenter of the alleged epidemic, and it has to be seen to be believed. Idle ambulances everywhere. Disinterested EMT workers and hospital employees. Many, if not most of them not wearing masks. Police harassing him from filming on a public street. I have a friend who lives in New York City, and he just called me this morning to report how non-busy the biggest hospital in Brooklyn looked. Something very strange is going on here.

Meanwhile, Dr. Colleen Smith, a doctor who specializes in “medical simulation,” whatever that is, violated every HIPAA regulation imaginable when she filmed inside an ICU at New York City’s Elmhurst Hospital. Dr. Smith complained about a lack of equipment and resources, the same establishment mantra we’ve heard time and time again from establishment sources, which is invariably blamed on hapless Donald Trump. Her video was published by the New York Times. The same day she was filming inside, Elmhurst Hospital was videotaped outside by a citizen journalist. You guessed it- it resembled a ghost town.

As I’ve made clear to so many who are parroting the mainstream line, “people are dying!,” yes, people are dying. They do everyday. As Bob Dylan, also back in the news this week with a better late than never song about JFK assassination truth, once said, “he not busy being born is busy dying.” The question is, what are the people whose deaths the state-controlled media is fixated upon dying from? How many of these deaths are actually from underlying causes like diabetes or pneumonia, or less frightening strains of virus, like the regular flu or the generic Coronavirus?

There are many disquieting indications that the wild overreaction to this is a hoax, even if the virus is not. The photograph of ominous rows of coffins supposedly emanating out of Italy, which has been allegedly hit so hard by COVID-19, which was proven to be from another country, taken years earlier. The Italian reports indicating that 99% of the fatalities attributed to this virus came from “other pathologies.” The story in early February out of China, that the Chinese were including deaths from pneumonia along with the scary COVID-19 cases. It is no exaggeration to say that, considering the draconian response, those in charge have a tremendous vested interest in significantly increasing the numbers.

Both the World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control were caught lying about the same thing in 2009; they falsely inflated the Swine Flu figures. Sharyl Attkisson lost her job with CBS for exposing the CDC. No investigative journalism is allowed in this country, outside of amateurs on the internet. The CDC and WHO are front and center here, along with our perpetually dishonest politicians and laughable, lapdog establishment press. They are the ones selling this narrative. Why would any intelligent person believe them?

I have been lied to my entire life by the most powerful authority figures. I worked for the Medical Industrial Complex for 44 years, until being fired two years ago for helping a handicapped co-worker. You read that right. That’s the chance you take in a “right to work” state. It gives them a right to fire you for no reason. Our healthcare system is hopelessly inefficient and just as corrupt as any other part of America 2.0. The medical profession itself is the third leading cause of death in this country. When you enter a hospital, you take your life in your hands. So excuse me for not trusting in all the white coats issuing their dire pronouncements.

In Virginia, our unofficial Martial Law is in effect until June 10. Just imagine how many businesses will never reopen after being closed for nearly three months. How many employees will be laid off, and be left to deal with the ever-increasing cost of living with their $1200 checks that constituted the trickle-down droppings from the $5.5 trillion dollar “stimulus” package, which Ron Paul called “a massive transfer of wealth from the middle class to the elite?” Picture the massive unemployment claims, somehow paid for by payroll taxes which are not going to be collected from all those unemployed workers who are no longer paying them.

And we still haven’t heard a peep of protest from anyone with a large public platform. Not a single corporate leader whose dedication to capitalism compels him to protest the literal shutdown of almost all commerce. There is a stunning uniformity of opinion on this massive overhaul of our society, which happened in the blink of an eye. Only naysayers like me, with the voices we have on the internet, are pointing out how shockingly wrong all of this is.

America, even as it existed in its watered-down, often embarrassing form a month ago, is forever gone. Once our leaders have demonstrated they can institute such authoritarian restrictions on the populace, with virtually no resistance, it is a certainty they will do it again. Expect to see the kind of ridiculous color-coded “terror threat” warnings we saw after 9/11. When the unquestioned authorities declare that we are at “code red” in terms of a new viral threat, America will just go back into lock down mode. Americans will be used to it.

Helping to sell this narrative has been an astonishing number of celebrities. This virus evidently is predisposed to attack famous people who have shown unswerving devotion to the Deep State. It was entirely predictable that the likes of Tom Hanks, Greta Thunberg, Prince Charles, and Chris Cuomo would test positive. For the Coronavirus, as it is worded in all the celebrity cases, not for COVID-19. This could be the lazy, unintentional intermingling of a generic term for the deadly strain that has stopped the world. Or it could be an admission that technically they are telling the truth- the tests can only determine whether one has Coronavirus, not any particular strain of it.

But there is a huge difference between the two terms; testing positive for the generic Coronavirus is no big deal. It could just be a common cold, or an indication someone is a carrier, with no symptoms at all. If everyone in past years had been frightened by fear porn into getting tested for any sniffle, who knows how many might have been positive? They have somehow convinced most of the public that this virus strain is potentially far more deadly than anything since the Bubonic Plague, despite numbers that remain a fraction of what we see every flu season. With even the most severe flu seasons, nothing has ever been closed or cancelled. Certainly there was never any kind of lock down.

This has all been sold to the public on the basis of protecting us. After all, our leaders care about us. They have only our best interests at heart. And what is more terrifying to anyone than the state of their health? None of us want to put our loved ones’ lives in danger. And so we become even more compliant than normal.

Benjamin Franklin wisely warned, “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.” Considering the continuous fear porn coming from our leaders, few of us probably feel safe. And their totalitarian response to an invisible enemy should make all of us feel demonstrably less free.

The Coronavirus Hobgoblin
By Donald Jeffries
Keeping It Unreal
March 17, 2020

Donald Jeffries is the author of the best seller "Hidden History: An Expose of Modern Crimes, Conspiracies, and Cover-Ups in American Politics," and Survival of the Richest. Long time JFK assassination researcher, his latest book is "Crimes and Cover Ups in American Politics: 1776-1963," which features a Foreword by Ron Paul.

https://www.lewrockwell.com/2020/03/donald-jeffries/the-coronavirus-hobgoblin/
"The great H.L. Mencken, a classical liberal when such creatures still existed, once wrote, “The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary.” I find myself repeating this quote more and more these days.

America, and the rest of the world, is in the throes of a panic that has never been seen before, outside the fanciful scripts of Hollywood. A new “super” virus, the Coronavirus, is being hyped nonstop by our state-controlled media as the new bubonic plague. The fear porn emanating from our television sets is relentless.

Attempting to urge calm, and discuss this subject rationally is very difficult. Hysterical shoppers have wiped the shelves clean in many stores. Toilet paper, for whatever reason, is being hoarded by nearly everyone. I have done what I can, with my own limited platform. I’ve had guests like the veteran medical fraud expert Jon Rappoport, and Dr. Steven Hotze, on my radio show “I Protest.” Most listeners, and most of my contacts on social media, seem to agree that this thing is being wildly over hyped. Some agree with my growing suspicion that it is, in fact, a hoax.

Even establishment voices like Dr. Drew Pinsky and Dr. Oz are attempting to restore reason. Pinsky noted, “A bad flu season is 80,000 dead, we’ve got about 18,000 dead from influenza this year, we have a hundred from corona. Which should you be worried about influenza or Corona? A hundred versus 18,000? It’s not a trick question…What I have a problem with is the panic and the fact that businesses are getting destroyed that people’s lives are being upended, not by the virus, but by the panic. The panic must stop. And the press, they really somehow need to be held accountable because they are hurting people.


Both Jon Rappoport and Dr. Wolfgang Wodarg are asking the questions all of us should be asking. Exactly how was this particular strain of the Coronavirus- COVID-19, identified? Rappoport claims that “presumptive” cases of the virus are being lumped in together with actual cases. To say that any reported numbers are unreliable in such a scenario is to put it mildly. But it may be worse than that. Someone on Twitter claims to have talked with the CDC, who admitted there is no present test for COVID-19. If that remarkable claim is true, then exactly how are any people being diagnosed as having it? Is every case “presumptive?”

Just in the last week, we’ve seen both the NBA and NHL suspend their seasons. The NCAA has cancelled March Madness, one of the most lucrative sporting events in the world. Businesses are closing. Virtually all events with large crowds have been cancelled. The CDC has recommended the banning of all gatherings with fifty or more people for eight weeks. So, if any revolutionaries out there were plotting to come together and don yellow jackets, it will have to be in groups of forty nine.

Washington, D.C. bars and restaurants have decreed that patrons may not come within less than six feet of one another. This brilliant idea was gleaned from Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who advised, “In general, when going outside try to stay at least 6 feet away from others as … If you can’t stay 6ft away from other people, it’s too close.” How such a ridiculous edict would be enforced wasn’t delineated by the good representative. Portable tape measures? What would be the penalties for breaching the six foot perimeter?

In 2009, this country was hit hard with the Swine Flu. Barack Obama, universally praised for his response, did nothing until 4,000 Americans had already died, when he declared a National Emergency. The CDC claimed that 59 million Americans contracted the disease, 265,000 were hospitalized, and over 12,000 died. As of now, headlines trumpet that “US death toll rises to 62.” The numbers don’t justify the reaction we’ve seen on the part of our leaders. Or the people. They don’t even seem to qualify this “super” virus as a pandemic.

In fact, the wonder is that they keep trotting out these numbers, which pale in comparison to deaths from the regular flu every year, and continue to receive the same panicked response on the part of the public. At what point do Americans start to question this? Why is the country being basically shut down over something that doesn’t appear nearly as dangerous as the normal, non “super” flu? If they are ordered to remain in their houses, how many Americans would protest?

These stringent measures are inconsistent and defy common sense. What is the difference between large crowds attending a ball game or a concert, and large crowds in stores and shopping malls? Not to mention the economic cost to all those businesses. The stock market is crashing, and is not responding as it normally does to seemingly good news like oil price drops and interest rate cuts. The conclusion is inescapable that the usual diabolical suspects are manipulating the buying and selling to eventually swoop in and devour the carcasses.

The rabbit hole here, as always, goes very deep. Bill Gates, representing the soulless eugenicists who have been running our world for a very long time, breathlessly fantasized about 33 million dying from this pandemic. His choice of the number 33 was not lost upon those in the conspiratorial world, who understand its significance in masonic and occult circles. Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, quarantined in Italy, solemnly warned that “America must act now- and act big.” Exactly how much “bigger” our leaders could react to a “pandemic” that has killed less than 100 people is something for the unwashed masses to ponder.

Then there is the constant drumbeat in response to the low numbers thus far, that this “super” virus cannot be stopped, and that things will get worse. Much worse. Media outlets, who have irresponsibly revved up the fear, have the audacity to run articles with headlines like, “5 Reasons Coronavirus is Way Worse Than You’ve Been Led to Believe.” National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Anthony Fauci declared, “things will get worse than they are right now. ” Based on the progression thus far, these sentiments simply aren’t justified. Are they talking about the virus, or the government’s crackdown, getting worse?

We are told that this “super” virus is unimaginably contagious, which will lead to a frighteningly fast spread around the world. Donald Trump, a nearly 74 year old overweight man, was filmed shaking hands with a Brazilian official who had tested positive for the Coronavirus. It would be subsequently reported that Trump tested negative afterwards. Shouldn’t a “super” bug be able to infect a vulnerable target of Trump’s age rather easily?

“Conspiracy theorists” are having fun online by asking people if they know anyone who has this deadly disease. So far, judging from the responses, it appears that the virus hasn’t struck anyone in the conspiracy world. Meanwhile, the wives of both Justin Trudeau and the prime minister of Spain have supposedly tested positive. And Tom “Oswald did it” Hanks, of all people, became the first celebrity to test positive. We can count on Tom to urge everyone to obey all orders.

With the unprecedented reaction to what has thus far been far less dangerous than the common flu, we should be asking why? Exactly what is the reason for this? On the surface, it appears to be just another way to trample on what remains of our civil liberties, in the guise of fighting to keep us healthy. We know they don’t care about our health. They do care deeply about controlling us. If this is a trial run to see how Americans react to a Martial Law situation, our leaders must be thrilled.

And Donald Trump is playing the part of the fall guy here, as he so often has since becoming president. While Obama did basically nothing in the face of the Swine Flu epidemic, Trump acted comparatively swiftly. When he declared a National Emergency after 40 deaths in America, and banned air travel to and from most European countries, the entire establishment blasted it as being too little, too late. Many of his enemies have called this virus “Trump’s Katrina.” For the record, whatever one thinks about Trump, he cannot be blamed for COVID-19.

In fact, many Trump supporters believe the virus scare is merely another attempt to remove him from office, after the ridiculous “Russiagate” and impeachment charades failed. I don’t think this is being done merely to get rid of Trump, although that may happen. Will they cancel elections? After all, there are large crowds at the polls. Already, the Democrats have cancelled the Louisiana primary, sparing the hapless Bernie Sanders another chance to be cheated electorally.

The entire countries of Italy and Spain have been closed off. Towns and communities all over the world are being quarantined. The overreaction on the part of the world is as historic as the overreaction here. Meanwhile, no one has explained why there appear to be few if any cases of the Coronavirus in Africa, India, or South America. Perhaps the heat? Well, what about Russia? Virtually nothing there, either. Did Vladimir Putin refuse to play ball, as he so often does?

Pointing out that half the deaths in America came from the same nursing home, and that those who have died have largely been very elderly, with underlying conditions, has done little to assuage a terrified populace.

Whatever this thing is, it isn’t a random but inexplicably powerful virus strain that our leaders are battling with selfless decency.

Also remember that economical collapse is always a possibility to those who have cash... just follow who now makes huge profits.

tons of resignations have occured in the past 3 months, meaning tons of ppl exited the markets right before the early march plummeting, so those guys also need to be followed

Introduction

People want to know:

just how bad is the COVID-19 virus and is fighting it worth the destruction of the world's economic and financial system while disrupting the lives of hundreds of millions of people?

The story behind the story will make it clear that things are seldom as they seem.

In short and when seen through the lens of Sustainable Development, aka Technocracy, the whole world has just been punked and then panicked into destroying itself over COVID-19.

The culprit...?

A world-class Technocrat in Britain:

Dr. Neil Ferguson, PhD is a professor at Imperial College in London that bills itself as a "global university". It is thoroughly steeped in Sustainable Development and more dedicated to social causes than academic achievement.

In fact, Imperial is very well-known for its alarmist research reports on climate change, carbon reduction, environmental degradation, loss of biodiversity, etc.

The problem with the global warming meme is that it is a tired, worn-out racehorse that much of the world simply ignores.

Global warming alarmists have tried every trick in the book to stampede the world into Sustainable Development. They have knowingly falsified climate data, flooded the world with inaccurate academic reports, held world meetings like the Paris Accord in France, threatened and bullied their critics, created a global youth movement to shame leaders into action, etc.

All of these strategies have failed to usher in the UN's 'Sustainable Development,' aka 'Technocracy,' and show little promise of success in the future.

What the Sustainable Development crowd needed was to put their non-performing racehorse "Global Warming" out to pasture and find a brand new horse that could finally run and win the race to what the UN calls "deep transformation" of the entire global economic system.

The new horse is named "COVID-19".

Different horse, same jockey, same race, same finish line...

It's possible we may need a standalone thread about hydroxychloroquine. It's a fascinating and important issue that I doubt is going to go away fast.

The glaring anomaly here is that most of the mainstream media is trying their hardest to denigrate Trump for promoting it. Trump has missed the goalposts quite a lot in the last couple of months, but here's he's 100% on the ball.

Fauci is 'protesting too much'. It's now starting too look like a choreographed attempt to ridicule a very possibly workable treatment. One wonders why.

It's fascinating to watch. It was almost laughable to read a report in The Guardian about chloroquine's known possible side-effects, the first mentioned being headaches. OMG.

Someone fighting for their life on a ventilator would be willing to suffer any kind of headache if the drug saved their life. That's the question to ask Fauci in a press conference — whether he'd prescribe it to his own wife if she was in very serious condition in ICU. And those kinds of theoretical question may become very real at some point, too.

"We’re talking about lockdown powers (at both the federal and state level): the ability to suspend the Constitution, indefinitely detain American citizens, bypass the courts, quarantine whole communities or segments of the population, override the First Amendment by outlawing religious gatherings and assemblies of more than a few people, shut down entire industries and manipulate the economy, muzzle dissidents, “stop and seize any plane, train or automobile to stymie the spread of contagious disease,” reshape financial markets, create a digital currency (and thus further restrict the use of cash), determine who should live or die…" - John Whitehead

The Attack on Civil Liberties in the Age of COVID-19

In an exclusive for MintPress, constitutional attorney John Whitehead warns that the COVID-19 pandemic threatens to bring the American Police State out into the open on a scale we’ve not seen before.

*****

You can always count on the government to take advantage of a crisis, legitimate or manufactured.

This coronavirus pandemic is no exception.

Not only are the federal and state governments unraveling the constitutional fabric of the nation with lockdown mandates that are sending the economy into a tailspin and wreaking havoc with our liberties, but they are also rendering the citizenry fully dependent on the government for financial handouts, medical intervention, protection and sustenance.

Unless we find some way to rein in the government’s power grabs, the fall-out will be epic.

Everything I have warned about for years—government overreach, invasive surveillance, martial law, abuse of powers, militarized police, weaponized technology used to track and control the citizenry, and so on—has coalesced into this present moment.

The government’s shameless exploitation of past national emergencies for its own nefarious purposes pales in comparison to what is presently unfolding.

Deploying the same strategy it used with 9/11 to acquire greater powers under the USA Patriot Act, the police state—a.k.a. the shadow government, a.k.a. the Deep State—has been anticipating this moment for years, quietly assembling a wish list of lockdown powers that could be trotted out and approved at a moment’s notice.

It should surprise no one, then, that the Trump Administration has asked Congress to allow it to suspend parts of the Constitution whenever it deems it necessary during this coronavirus pandemic and “other” emergencies.

It’s that “other” emergencies part (https://www.politico.com/news/2020/03/21/doj-coronavirus-emergency-powers-140023) that should particularly give you pause, if not spur you to immediate action (by action, I mean a loud and vocal, apolitical, nonpartisan outcry and sustained, apolitical, nonpartisan resistance).

In fact, the Department of Justice (DOJ) has been quietly trotting out and testing a long laundry list of terrifying powers that override the Constitution.

We’re talking about lockdown powers (at both the federal and state level): the ability to suspend the Constitution (https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/doj-suspend-constitutional-rights-coronavirus-970935/), indefinitely detain American citizens, bypass the courts, quarantine whole communities or segments of the population, override the First Amendment by outlawing religious gatherings and assemblies of more than a few people, shut down entire industries and manipulate the economy, muzzle dissidents, “stop and seize any plane, train or automobile (https://www.politico.com/news/2020/03/13/trump-extreme-powers-coronavirus-129176) to stymie the spread of contagious disease,” reshape financial markets, create a digital currency (and thus further restrict the use of cash), determine who should live or die…

You’re getting the picture now, right?

These are powers the police state would desperately like to make permanent.

Bear in mind, however, that these powers the Trump Administration, acting on orders from the police state, are officially asking Congress to recognize and authorize barely scratch the surface of the far-reaching powers the government has already unilaterally claimed for itself.

Unofficially, the police state has been riding roughshod over the rule of law for years now without any pretense of being reined in or restricted in its power grabs by Congress, the courts or the citizenry.

This current pandemic is a test to see whether the Constitution—and our commitment to the principles enshrined in the Bill of Rights—can survive a national crisis and true state of emergency.

Here’s what we know: whatever the so-called threat to the nation—whether it’s civil unrest, school shootings, alleged acts of terrorism, or the threat of a global pandemic in the case of COVID-19—the government has a tendency to capitalize on the nation’s heightened emotions, confusion and fear as a means of extending the reach of the police state.

This coronavirus epidemic, which has brought China’s Orwellian surveillance out of the shadows and caused Italy to declare a nationwide lockdown threatens to bring the American Police State out into the open on a scale we’ve not seen before.

Every day brings a drastic new set of restrictions by government bodies (most have been delivered by way of executive orders (https://www.finra.org/rules-guidance/key-topics/covid-19/shelter-in-place) at the local, state and federal level that are eager to flex their muscles for the so-called “good” of the populace.

This is where we run the risk of this whole fly-by-night operation going completely off the rails.

It’s one thing to attempt an experiment in social distancing in order to flatten the curve of this virus because we can’t afford to risk overwhelming the hospitals and exposing the most vulnerable in the nation to unavoidable loss of life scenarios. However, there’s a fine line between strongly worded suggestions for citizens to voluntarily stay at home and strong-armed house arrest orders with penalties in place for non-compliance.

More than three-quarters of all Americans have now been ordered to stay at home and that number is growing as more states fall in line.

Schools have canceled physical classes, many for the remainder of the academic year.

Many of the states have banned gatherings of more than 10 people.

At least three states (Nevada, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania) have ordered non-essential businesses to close.

In Washington, DC, residents face 90 days in jail and a $5,000 fine if they leave their homes during the coronavirus outbreak. Residents of Maryland, Hawaii and Washington state also risk severe penalties of up to a year in prison and a $5,000 fine for violating the stay-at-home orders. Violators in Alaska could face jail time and up to $25,000 in fines.

Kentucky residents are prohibited from traveling outside the state, with a few exceptions.

New York City, the epicenter of the COVID-19 outbreak in the U.S., is offering its Rikers Island prisoners $6 an hour to help dig mass graves.

In San Francisco, cannabis dispensaries were included among the essential businesses allowed to keep operating during the city-wide lockdown.

New Jersey’s governor canceled gatherings of any number, including parties, weddings and religious ceremonies, and warned the restrictions could continue for weeks or months. One city actually threatened to prosecute residents who spread false information about the virus.

Oregon banned all nonessential social and recreational gatherings, regardless of size.

Rhode Island has given police the go-ahead to pull over anyone with New York license plates to record their contact information and order them to self-quarantine for 14 days.

South Carolina’s police have been empowered to break up any public gatherings of more than three people.

Of course, there are exceptions to all of these stay-at-home orders (in more than 30 states and counting), the longest of which runs until June 10. Essential workers (doctors, firefighters, police and grocery store workers) can go to work. Everyone else will have to fit themselves into a variety of exceptions in order to leave their homes: for grocery runs, doctor visits, to get exercise, to visit a family member, etc.

Throughout the country, more than 14,000 “Citizen-Soldiers” of the National Guard have been mobilized to support the states and the federal government in their fight against the coronavirus.

Thus far, we have not breached the Constitution’s crisis point: martial law has yet to be overtly imposed (although an argument could be made to the contrary given the militarized nature of the American police state).

It’s just a matter of time before all hell breaks loose.

If this is not the defining point at which we cross over into all-out totalitarianism, then it is at a minimum a test to see how easily we will surrender.

Generally, the government has to show a compelling state interest before it can override certain critical rights such as free speech, assembly, press, search and seizure, etc. Most of the time, it lacks that compelling state interest, but it still manages to violate those rights, setting itself up for legal battles further down the road.

These lockdown measures—on the right of the people to peaceably assemble, to travel, to engage in commerce, etc.—unquestionably restrict fundamental constitutional rights, which might pass muster for a short period of time, but can it be sustained for longer stretches legally?

That’s the challenge before us, of course, if these days and weeks potentially stretch into months-long quarantines.

At the moment, the government believes it has a compelling interest—albeit a temporary one—in restricting gatherings, assemblies and movement in public in order to minimize the spread of this virus.

The key point is this: while we may tolerate these restrictions on our liberties in the short term, we should never fail to be on guard lest these one-time constraints become a slippery slope to a total lockdown mindset.

What we must guard against, more than ever before, is the tendency to become so accustomed to our prison walls—these lockdowns, authoritarian dictates, and police state tactics justified as necessary for national security—that we allow the government to keep having its way in all things, without any civic resistance or objections being raised.

Most of all, don’t be naïve: the government will use this crisis to expand its powers far beyond the reach of the Constitution.

That’s how it starts.

Travel too far down that slippery slope, and there will be no turning back.

As I make clear in my book “Battlefield America: The War on the American People,” if you wait to speak out—stand up—and resist until the government’s lockdowns impact your freedoms personally, it could be too late.

Just because we’re fighting an unseen enemy in the form of a virus doesn’t mean we have to relinquish every shred of our humanity, our common sense, or our freedoms to a nanny state that thinks it can do a better job of keeping us safe.

Whatever we give up willingly now—whether it’s basic human decency, the ability to manage our private affairs, the right to have a say in how the government navigates this crisis, or the few rights still left to us that haven’t been disemboweled in recent years by a power-hungry police state—we won’t get back so easily once this crisis is past.

The government never cedes power willingly.

Neither should we.

Apparently this is a celebration outside Bellevue Hospital in NYC?

If this video is actually of Bellevue taken recently, this is huge, and deserves further investigation on what the hell is happening and why is everyone so happy?

Please help me research

AS this virus is apparently so contagious (lives long on surfaces, etc) then why are we seeing emergency staff, which you would expect be dealing with this virus, removing their masks and ignoring social distancing?

When will enough evidence be enough for the people that this is a bunch of crap?

I went to the grocery store yesterday and it felt like I was in a strange sci-fi movie set.

People's minds have been messed with so bad I think many are actually excited that this is happening and they are ready to take ANYTHING to do with more restrictions to the next level asap.

Photos I took from the second biggest hospital in Glasgow, Scotland (population 600,000 ish), from a few hours ago (about 10:30).

Like a ghost ship.

I have no idea what to make of this.

Thoughts?

Much the same here in Inverness as far as I can see.
Thanks

Well done Ben :highfive:

I was going to exhort folks, where possible if within a reasonably sensible distance to where they reside, to do the same.

Document what is happening locally.

There's something not quite right going on here.

Here, where I am, relatively silent; no panic, no lines of paramedic vehicles whizzing through the streets, ambulances dormant at the local station just 5 minutes from me, the odd CSO (Community Support Officer) out and about. Granted, most cases we are being told, are already hospitalized and there isn't a coherent population-wide testing programme in place in the UK yet, so, I wouldn't want to be too premature. *There'll be hotspots of course but I'm certainly curious that a city the size of Glasgow may appear so 'quiet'. Reminiscent of the Mary Celeste.

There's a lot of 'theatre' taking place with the mainstream coverage as is their usual MO yet quite a lot of the 'on the ground' coverage - Billy Six in Germany immediately springs to mind - really isn't at all consistent with the narrative.

Here's why I really do understand why some folks are sceptical, and they can't be entirely blamed for that.

The One Hosing Association video on the previous main thread where operatives were caught blatantly lying about a 'resident' further blurs things.

Who knows, perhaps the higher profile isolations ie Boris and Prince Charles are part of a wider theatre? Perhaps not quite as they appear? Part of the perception management operation?

The whole truth will out at some point of course - all we can really do right now is pay close attention to our health, those who would need our support, and continue to keep a very close eye out; watching the watchers and being super vigilant, grounded, intelligent, and balanced about it all.

That's easier to do for nearly all of us here as we aren't being strafed by missiles on an hourly basis or already spent way too long in open prison camps under sniper rifle surveillance: Palestine but for one example immediately springs to mind, there.

My thoughts, as of right now :heart:

Resistance Building To Coronavirus 'House Arrest' Orders...It's About Time!
RonPaulLibertyReport
4/7/20
tJPlJ6Qf7nk

"Across the country, from political leaders, to small business owners, to parents who just want to take their children to the park, resistance is growing to the authoritarians who have effectively suspended the Constitution and placed most of the country under house arrest. Lawsuits are also challenging unlawful "stay at home" orders. What if all the hysteria-driven orders have actually made the virus outbreak even worse? More scientists are coming forward to argue for the "Sweden model" of moderation rather than lockdown."

[norman]

It's possible we may need a standalone thread about hydroxychloroquine. It's a fascinating and important issue that I doubt is going to go away fast.

The glaring anomaly here is that most of the mainstream media is trying their hardest to denigrate Trump for promoting it. Trump has missed the goalposts quite a lot in the last couple of months, but here's he's 100% on the ball.

Fauci is 'protesting too much'. It's now starting too look like a choreographed attempt to ridicule a very possibly workable treatment. One wonders why.

It's fascinating to watch. It was almost laughable to read a report in The Guardian about chloroquine's known possible side-effects, the first mentioned being headaches. OMG.

Someone fighting for their life on a ventilator would be willing to suffer any kind of headache if the drug saved their life. That's the question to ask Fauci in a press conference — whether he'd prescribe it to his own wife if she was in very serious condition in ICU. And those kinds of theoretical question may become very real at some point, too.

Watch out for Boris The UK Prime Minister becoming the poster boy for hydroxychloroquine shortly.

Well, we have to have SOME faith.

So, I'm coming across more experts saying there is NO VIRUS, but there's certainly alot of fearmongering.

60Ghz is beaming at us already, especially in our hospitals. Kids staying home from school is just so they can increase 60ghz there.....

He explains the reasons for social distancing; you'll never guess. It's not to protect you from catching the virus from others, folks. Or infecting them.....More and more ppl are wearing masks and panic shopping emptying shelves. Nothing is being trucked in on purpose, I suspect. It's the fear through lies that is making things worse.

As I was watching this video, I thought that the ppl on Avalon should hear this, too..
I hope you choose to watch this video, even if you're not a Christian; if only to increase your knowledge about the genocide agendas....

Does anybody think it was weird that Trump said that 200,000 ppl dying is acceptable? Anybody suspect that maybe 200,000 ppl are going to be ritual sacrifices???

A recent stream of conscious I had:

After reading the craziness of the day, the term “End of Days” came for a visit. I recognized where I first heard that term (Christian upbringing) but I also know it has been used in other areas of thought so I decided to investigate further.

Here is an intriguing snippet of that investigation:

End of Day (EOD) in terms of time: 2359 (military time) or 11:59, one minute before midnight. End of day = Event Horizon though that term is more commonly used in astrophysics.

2+3+5+9 = 19
Corona(virus) = Crown

Could COVID19 (also) be code for the emergence (from the event horizon) of a one world leader??

The Fed (http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/55025.htm) is definitely gobbling up assets, making a "working unit" with the Treasury and Black Rock.

Secretary of the Treasury is Governor (https://books.google.com/books?id=rlBeM-9BOg8C&lpg=PA170&ots=wF6zjfnWds&dq=secretary%20treasury%20agent%20imf&pg=PA170#v=onepage&q=secretary%20treasury%20agent%20imf&f=false) of the IMF and several regional development banks. If any kind of salary comes from this, it is the same conflict of interest as the judges and so-called spies can be prosecuted for.

The World Bank is practically a mouthpiece/enforcer of U. S. policy. I have not looked in-depth as to what these Governorships are, but they are with "foreign agencies".

There is definitely a move to make Iraq into a battlefield: addition of Patriot missiles, and contraction from multiple bases into four big ones, with the intent to start a destructive campaign. I don't think it will work well, or as automatically, as most of the prior moves.

In one sense, the public is being given hush money. For instance, 75% of the business loans can be forgiven if spent in eight weeks. But looking at the sums involved, this is a small portion of what goes to the markets and the military, which suggests people are not the priority. Is it a benefit to give a portion of your own money back to you? Not compared to someone taking the rest of it and being able to issue ten times that amount in loans which eventually bring financial returns, or more assets.

What did they know, exactly? US intel warned of 'cataclysmic' coronavirus pandemic in NOVEMBER 2019, report claims

US military intelligence tried to raise the alarm about the coronavirus epidemic in China when it was still embryonic in November, inside sources claim - raising questions of what they knew and who ignored, or squashed the report.

Not only had the coronavirus epidemic begun spiraling out of control in Wuhan by November 2019, but military analysts were already warning it "could be a cataclysmic event" for both China and the US, four sources familiar with the briefings told ABC on Wednesday. Analysts at the National Center for Medical Intelligence, a subsidiary of the Pentagon's Defense Intelligence Agency, had been trying to alert Pentagon and Donald Trump administration officials of the looming catastrophe for months before the country finally took action, the sources claim.

Based on detailed analysis of intercepted communications and satellite imagery, the NCMI reportedly projected that a virulent contagion already getting out of hand in Wuhan would soon be menacing not just China but US troops stationed nearby. Most intriguingly, the sources hint that analysts may have begun looking into the unfolding epidemic even earlier, given the timeline for when the material crossed President Trump's desk. By the time the agency's warnings made it into the President's Daily Brief in early January, they would have had to undergo "weeks of vetting and analysis."

"The timeline of the intel side of this may be further back than we're discussing," one source told ABC, suggesting "preliminary reports from Wuhan" dated back even earlier than the NCMI report, which was widely released among the intelligence community before Thanksgiving and spawned several intel community bulletins that supposedly outlined Beijing's own responses to the growing epidemic. China knew the coronavirus had gotten out of control, the sources allege, but tried to keep it under wraps - a claim the Trump administration has echoed repeatedly in the months since then.

The new revelations place the timeline for the virus' origins much closer to the controversial claims of Chinese foreign policy spokesman Lijian Zhao, who claimed last month (albeit without real evidence) that the US military had brought the virus to Wuhan when they sent a delegation to the Military World Games in mid-October.

The Trump administration has been slammed for dragging its feet in response to the coronavirus epidemic, playing down the potential disruption the disease would cause even as it upended China's economy and forced millions into quarantine. While the president insisted "no one could have known" the virus would wreak such havoc in the US, there's no way the Trump administration could not have seen the information in the NCMI report, former deputy assistant defense secretary Mick Mulroy told ABC, claiming "it would be a significant alarm that would have been set off" and "literally every intelligence-collection agency" would have gotten involved in following up and responding to the threat.

But Defense Secretary Mark Esper told the outlet he was unaware of the issue coming before the National Security Council in November or December. No official response was forthcoming from the administration until Trump closed the border to flights from China in late January - all the while insisting there was nothing to worry about (and, if insider stock sales by multiple senators were any indication, telling Congress something different). Worse, not only had multiple government agencies conducted several pandemic "war games" in the months leading up to the outbreak, but they had performed poorly, making many of the same missteps that they would faithfully repeat in real life.

If you take that in conjunction with this article (copied below), compelling evidence starts to mount that someone, somewhere, has been working very quietly and diligently to ensure this epidemic took off big time in the US.

If so (and I heavily lean to this myself), this scenario is still in play right now.

https://latimes.com/politics/story/2020-04-07/hospitals-washington-seize-coronavirus-supplies



Hospitals say Feds are seizing masks and other coronavirus supplies without a word

7 April, 2020

Although President Trump has directed states and hospitals to secure what supplies they can, the federal government is quietly seizing orders, leaving medical providers across the country in the dark about where the material is going and how they can get what they need to deal with the coronavirus pandemic.

Hospital and clinic officials in seven states described the seizures in interviews over the past week. The Federal Emergency Management Agency is not publicly reporting the acquisitions, despite the outlay of millions of dollars of taxpayer money, nor has the administration detailed how it decides which supplies to seize and where to reroute them.

Officials who’ve had materials seized also say they’ve received no guidance from the government about how or if they will get access to the supplies they ordered. That has stoked concerns about how public funds are being spent and whether the Trump administration is fairly distributing scarce medical supplies.

“In order to have confidence in the distribution system, to know that it is being done in an equitable manner, you have to have transparency,” said Dr. John Hick, an emergency physician at Hennepin Healthcare in Minnesota who has helped develop national emergency preparedness standards through the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine.

The medical leaders on the front lines (https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2020-04-07/coronavirus-respiratory-therapists-ventilators-shortage) of the fight to control the coronavirus and keep patients alive say they are grasping for explanations. “We can’t get any answers,” said a California hospital official who asked not to be identified for fear of retaliation from the White House.

In Florida, a large medical system saw an order for thermometers taken away. And officials at a system in Massachusetts were unable to determine where its order of masks went.

“Are they stockpiling this stuff? Are they distributing it? We don’t know,” one official said. “And are we going to ever get any of it back if we need supplies? It would be nice to know these things.”

PeaceHealth, a 10-hospital system in Washington, Oregon and Alaska, had a shipment of testing supplies seized recently. “It’s incredibly frustrating,” said Richard DeCarlo, the system’s chief operating officer.

“We had put wheels in motion with testing and protective equipment to allow us to secure and protect our staff and our patients,” he said. “When testing went off the table, we had to come up with a whole new plan.”

Although PeaceHealth doesn’t have hospitals in the Seattle area, where the first domestic coronavirus outbreak occurred, the system has had a steady stream of potentially infected patients who require testing and care by doctors and nurse in full protective equipment.

Trump and other White House officials, including his close advisor and son-in-law Jared Kushner, have insisted that the federal government is using a data-driven approach (https://www.latimes.com/world-nation/story/2020-04-03/trump-admin-tries-to-narrow-stockpiles-role-for-states) to procure supplies and direct them where they are most needed.

In response to questions from The Times, a FEMA representative said the agency, working with the Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Defense, has developed a system for identifying needed supplies from vendors and distributing them equitably.

The representative said the agency factors in the populations of states and major metropolitan areas and the severity of the coronavirus outbreak in various locales. “High-transmission areas were prioritized, and allocations were based on population, not on quantities requested,” the representative said.

But the agency has refused to provide any details about how these determinations are made or why it is choosing to seize some supply orders and not others. Administration officials also will not say what supplies are going to what states.

Using the Defense Production Act, a Korean War-era law that allows the president to compel the production of vital equipment in a national emergency, Trump last month ordered General Motors to produce ventilators (https://www.latimes.com/california/liveblog/coronavirus-live-updates-thursday-april-2) to address shortfalls at hospitals.

The law also empowers federal agencies to place orders for critical materials and to see that those get priority over orders from private companies or state and local governments.

Experts say judicious use of this authority could help bring order to the medical supply market by routing critical material — ventilators, masks and other protective gear — from suppliers to the federal government and then to areas of greatest need, such as New York.

Yet there is little indication that federal officials are controlling the market, as hospitals, doctors and others report paying exorbitant prices or resorting to unorthodox maneuvers to get what they need.

Hospital and health officials describe an opaque process in which federal officials sweep in without warning to expropriate supplies.

Jose Camacho, who heads the Texas Assn. of Community Health Centers, said his group was trying to purchase a small order of just 20,000 masks when his supplier reported that the order had been taken.

Camacho was flabbergasted. Several of his member clinics — which as primary care centers are supposed to alleviate pressure on overburdened hospitals — are struggling to stay open amid woeful shortages of protective equipment.

“Everyone says you are supposed to be on your own,” Camacho said, noting Trump’s repeated admonition that states and local health systems cannot rely on Washington for supplies. “Then to have this happen, you just sit there wondering what else you can do. You can’t fight the federal government.”

While the president insisted "no one could have known" the virus would wreak such havoc in the US, there's no way the Trump administration could not have seen the information in the NCMI report, former deputy assistant defense secretary Mick Mulroy told ABC, claiming "it would be a significant alarm that would have been set off" and "literally every intelligence-collection agency" would have gotten involved in following up and responding to the threat.

But Defense Secretary Mark Esper told the outlet he was unaware of the issue coming before the National Security Council in November or December. No official response was forthcoming from the administration until Trump closed the border to flights from China in late January - all the while insisting there was nothing to worry about (and, if insider stock sales by multiple senators were any indication, telling Congress something different). Worse, not only had multiple government agencies conducted several pandemic "war games" in the months leading up to the outbreak, but they had performed poorly, making many of the same missteps that they would faithfully repeat in real life.

If you take that in conjunction with this article (copied below), compelling evidence starts to mount that someone, somewhere, has been working very quietly and diligently to ensure this epidemic took off big time in the US.

If so (and I heavily lean to this myself), this scenario is still in play right now.

Hospitals say Feds are seizing masks and other coronavirus supplies without a word

7 April, 2020

Although President Trump has directed states and hospitals to secure what supplies they can, the federal government is quietly seizing orders, leaving medical providers across the country in the dark about where the material is going and how they can get what they need to deal with the coronavirus pandemic.

Hospital and clinic officials in seven states described the seizures in interviews over the past week. The Federal Emergency Management Agency is not publicly reporting the acquisitions, despite the outlay of millions of dollars of taxpayer money, nor has the administration detailed how it decides which supplies to seize and where to reroute them.

Officials who’ve had materials seized also say they’ve received no guidance from the government about how or if they will get access to the supplies they ordered. That has stoked concerns about how public funds are being spent and whether the Trump administration is fairly distributing scarce medical supplies.

“In order to have confidence in the distribution system, to know that it is being done in an equitable manner, you have to have transparency,” said Dr. John Hick, an emergency physician at Hennepin Healthcare in Minnesota who has helped develop national emergency preparedness standards through the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine.

The medical leaders on the front lines (https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2020-04-07/coronavirus-respiratory-therapists-ventilators-shortage) of the fight to control the coronavirus and keep patients alive say they are grasping for explanations. “We can’t get any answers,” said a California hospital official who asked not to be identified for fear of retaliation from the White House.

In Florida, a large medical system saw an order for thermometers taken away. And officials at a system in Massachusetts were unable to determine where its order of masks went.

“Are they stockpiling this stuff? Are they distributing it? We don’t know,” one official said. “And are we going to ever get any of it back if we need supplies? It would be nice to know these things.”

PeaceHealth, a 10-hospital system in Washington, Oregon and Alaska, had a shipment of testing supplies seized recently. “It’s incredibly frustrating,” said Richard DeCarlo, the system’s chief operating officer.

“We had put wheels in motion with testing and protective equipment to allow us to secure and protect our staff and our patients,” he said. “When testing went off the table, we had to come up with a whole new plan.”

Although PeaceHealth doesn’t have hospitals in the Seattle area, where the first domestic coronavirus outbreak occurred, the system has had a steady stream of potentially infected patients who require testing and care by doctors and nurse in full protective equipment.

Trump and other White House officials, including his close advisor and son-in-law Jared Kushner, have insisted that the federal government is using a data-driven approach (https://www.latimes.com/world-nation/story/2020-04-03/trump-admin-tries-to-narrow-stockpiles-role-for-states) to procure supplies and direct them where they are most needed.

In response to questions from The Times, a FEMA representative said the agency, working with the Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Defense, has developed a system for identifying needed supplies from vendors and distributing them equitably.

The representative said the agency factors in the populations of states and major metropolitan areas and the severity of the coronavirus outbreak in various locales. “High-transmission areas were prioritized, and allocations were based on population, not on quantities requested,” the representative said.

But the agency has refused to provide any details about how these determinations are made or why it is choosing to seize some supply orders and not others. Administration officials also will not say what supplies are going to what states.

Using the Defense Production Act, a Korean War-era law that allows the president to compel the production of vital equipment in a national emergency, Trump last month ordered General Motors to produce ventilators (https://www.latimes.com/california/liveblog/coronavirus-live-updates-thursday-april-2) to address shortfalls at hospitals.

The law also empowers federal agencies to place orders for critical materials and to see that those get priority over orders from private companies or state and local governments.

Experts say judicious use of this authority could help bring order to the medical supply market by routing critical material — ventilators, masks and other protective gear — from suppliers to the federal government and then to areas of greatest need, such as New York.

Yet there is little indication that federal officials are controlling the market, as hospitals, doctors and others report paying exorbitant prices or resorting to unorthodox maneuvers to get what they need.

Hospital and health officials describe an opaque process in which federal officials sweep in without warning to expropriate supplies.

Jose Camacho, who heads the Texas Assn. of Community Health Centers, said his group was trying to purchase a small order of just 20,000 masks when his supplier reported that the order had been taken.

Camacho was flabbergasted. Several of his member clinics — which as primary care centers are supposed to alleviate pressure on overburdened hospitals — are struggling to stay open amid woeful shortages of protective equipment.

“Everyone says you are supposed to be on your own,” Camacho said, noting Trump’s repeated admonition that states and local health systems cannot rely on Washington for supplies. “Then to have this happen, you just sit there wondering what else you can do. You can’t fight the federal government.”

I suspect this is the federal government’s response to the threat by many Democrat Governors, like Michelle Lujan [“Wuhan”] Grisham of New Mexico, to horde medical supplies. She has publicly stated that is part of her plan.

[Bill Ryan]

More evidence is emerging that this was totally overlooked in the US from an early date — deliberately or otherwise. (I strongly suspect the former.)

Intelligence report warned of coronavirus crisis as early as November: Sources

8 April, 2020

As far back as late November, U.S. intelligence officials were warning that a contagion was sweeping through China’s Wuhan region (https://abcnews.go.com/Health/coronavirus-turnaround-wuhan-back/story?id=69894804), changing the patterns of life and business and posing a threat to the population, according to four sources briefed on the secret reporting.

Concerns about what is now known to be the novel coronavirus (http://www.abcnews.com/coronavirus) pandemic were detailed in a November intelligence report by the military's National Center for Medical Intelligence (NCMI), according to two officials familiar with the document’s contents.
The report was the result of analysis of wire and computer intercepts, coupled with satellite images.

It raised alarms because an out-of-control disease would pose a serious threat to U.S. forces in Asia -- forces that depend on the NCMI’s work. And it paints a picture of an American government that could have ramped up mitigation and containment efforts far earlier to prepare for a crisis poised to come home.

"Analysts concluded it could be a cataclysmic event," one of the sources said of the NCMI’s report. "It was then briefed multiple times to" the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Pentagon’s Joint Staff and the White House. Wednesday night, the Pentagon issued a statement denying the "product/assessment" existed.

From that warning in November, the sources described repeated briefings through December for policy-makers and decision-makers across the federal government as well as the National Security Council at the White House. All of that culminated with a detailed explanation of the problem that appeared in the President’s Daily Brief of intelligence matters in early January, the sources said.

For something to have appeared in the PDB, it would have had to go through weeks of vetting and analysis, according to people who have worked on presidential briefings in both Republican and Democratic administrations.

"The timeline of the intel side of this may be further back than we’re discussing," the source said of preliminary reports from Wuhan. "But this was definitely being briefed beginning at the end of November as something the military needed to take a posture on."

The NCMI report was made available widely to people authorized to access intelligence community alerts. Following the report’s release, other intelligence community bulletins began circulating through confidential channels across the government around Thanksgiving, the sources said. Those analyses said China’s leadership knew the epidemic was out of control even as it kept such crucial information from foreign governments and public health (https://abcnews.go.com/alerts/obamacare) agencies.

"It would be a significant alarm that would have been set off by this," former Deputy Assistant Defense Secretary Mick Mulroy, now an ABC News contributor, said of the NCMI report. "And it would have been something that would be followed up by literally every intelligence-collection agency."

Mulroy, who previously served as a senior official at the CIA, said NCMI does serious work that senior government leaders do not ignore.

"Medical intelligence takes into account all source information -- imagery intelligence, human intelligence, signals intelligence," Mulroy said. "Then there’s analysis by people who know those specific areas. So for something like this to have come out, it has been reviewed by experts in the field. They’re taking together what those pieces of information mean and then looking at the potential for an international health crisis."

NCMI is a component of the Pentagon's Defense Intelligence Agency. Together, the agencies’ core responsibilities are to ensure U.S. military forces have the information they need to carry out their missions -- both offensively and defensively. It is a critical priority for the Pentagon to keep American service members healthy on deployments.

Asked about the November warning last Sunday on ABC’s "This Week," Defense Secretary Mark Esper told Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos, "I can't recall, George. But we have many people who watch this closely. We have the premier infectious disease research institute in America, within the United States Army. So, our people who work these issues directly watch this all the time."

Pressing the secretary, Stephanopoulos asked, "So, you would have known if there was briefed to the National Security Council in December, wouldn't you?"
Esper said, "Yes. I'm not aware of that."

The Pentagon did not comment Tuesday, but on Wednesday evening following the publication of this report, the Defense Department provided a statement from Col. R. Shane Day, Director of the NCMI.

"As a matter of practice the National Center for Medical Intelligence does not comment publicly on specific intelligence matters. However, in the interest of transparency during this current public health crisis, we can confirm that media reporting about the existence/release of a National Center for Medical Intelligence Coronavirus-related product/assessment in November of 2019 is not correct. No such NCMI product exists," the statement said.

The White House National Security Council and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence declined to comment.

Critics have charged the Trump administration with being flat-footed and late in its response to a pandemic that, after sweeping through Wuhan and then parts of Europe, has now killed more than 12,000 in the U.S.

For his part, President Donald Trump has alternated between taking credit for early action and claiming that the coronavirus was a surprise to him and everyone else. He has repeatedly touted his Jan. 31 decision to restrict air travel with China, but at the same time, he spent weeks telling the public and top administration officials that there was nothing for Americans to fear.

On Jan. 22, for instance, Trump made his first comments about the virus when asked in a CNBC interview, "Are there worries about a pandemic at this point?" The president responded, "No. Not at all. And we have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China, and we have it under control. It’s going to be just fine."

As late as Feb. 19, Trump was offering positive reviews for the way China’s leaders had handled the coronavirus.

"I'm confident that they're trying very hard," Trump told an interviewer from Fox 10 in Phoenix. "They're working it -- they built, they built a hospital in seven days, and now they're building another one. I think it's going to work out fine."

It was not until March 13 when Trump declared a national emergency and mobilized the vast resources of the federal government to help public-health agencies deal with the crisis that was poised to crash on to the homeland.

If it were true that America’s spy agencies were caught that off guard, one intelligence official told ABC News, "that would be a massive intel failure on the order of 9/11. But it wasn’t. They had the intelligence."

ABC News contributor John Cohen, who used to oversee intelligence operations at the Department of Homeland Security, said even the best information would be of no use if officials do not act on it.

"When responding to a public health crisis or any other serious security threat, it is critical that our leaders react quickly and take steps to address the threat identified in the intelligence reporting," said Cohen, the former acting undersecretary of DHS. "It’s not surprising to me that the intelligence community detected the outbreak; what is surprising and disappointing is that the White House ignored the clear warning signs, failed to follow established pandemic response protocols and were slow to put in place a government-wide effort to respond to this crisis."

This would seem to explain one of the main things CV-19 is meant to distract us from. :bump:

It is downing on me that there are very few news (internationally (1)) about any thing else but Covid !
In previous similar operations of the Powers That Be, similar media tactics were used to cover up
something that would be making a big stink about some important people.

So what are we missing hearing about ?

Does any body think it could be connected to the Eppstein affair ? US elections ??

Any comments appreciated.

The pandemic reaction is cover for the global financial restructuring. i.e. greater than the great depression - I heard of the plan of the financial takedown last year, through an employee of a private equity firm - but the way it happened, and how quickly, was a complete surprise.

I've seen people post this video a few times. This time I've decided to watch it. Considering how grand an introduction James gives him, I'm very surprised by how narrow mindedly stupid this guy actually is. He can't get his head out of the realm of debt based funny money. And at no point does he define the difference between the Republic of the United States of America and the USA Corporation. All he harps on about is what a dodgy looking situation it is for the funnymoney system.

As far as I'm concerned the more funnymoney crashes right down and out for the count, the better. The ball to watch is what are the patriots doing to transfer out of that funnymoney system and leave the Republic sitting as pretty as possible. USA Corp' is irrelevant and should be dead and buried, with any luck, quite soon.

The Republic is what matters.

I've no doubt that the bankers had their own plan when this got going, but I have almost as little doubt that the crash is being taken out of their hands and turned into something else.

Again, I'm surprised by how far back behind the curve this guy is looking on from. James gave him a huge big-up but he was just about a complete waste of half an hour. This converstion didn't get anywhere near the real issue. The closest it got was a bit of head shaking about "something very strange is happening".

Hi guys,
I am a retired nurse in the uk, I was contacted by the nursing council a few weeks ago asking me to come back to the NHS to help with the covid 19 crisis.
I agreed, re registered as a nurse and completed all covid 19 training etc.
I was told that the NHS would be in touch to assign me to where I would be needed to look after patients with covid 19.

Two weeks later I was contacted by the NHS covid 19 response team to say that I'm not needed at present, as they are not short of nurses.

I find this strange, when we have been told of staff shortages and extreme pressure on the NHS.

Stay safe and well

You may well be right, Norman. High finance is not my area of expertise--I may have been convinced by Corbett that his guest is high on the cutting edge.
In any case, it doesn't appear that the "reset" is designed to help Main Street, and Wall Street appears to have it in for small businesses.
Too much competition for the corporations, perhaps?

On another note, I can't see that quoting mainstream statistics and reports from the likes of ABC News is going to help us sort through all the lies.
The best advice I've heard from Dark Journalist, Joseph Farrell, C.A. Fitts and other credible sources is to ignore lamestream reports.
I think we've all pretty much known this for a long time, haven't we?

It may be.

When we look at the earliest reports versus the lack of action, it is much like deciding what consists of "actionable intelligence"-- i. e., when is the threat real enough we have to do something.

In this case, there is nothing much to compare it to, since I cannot recall many times of a good decision being made. I can recall many times of something bad or false happening. It is like the last time DHS prevented a terrorist act--unknown.

The trouble is that since all varieties can only be found in the U. S., and that it has taken off like wildfire, is a statistical anomaly at the very least. It is hard to find a satisfactory explanation by any normal means. I can't think of any reason why it would crawl the rest of the globe first before showing up here to throw a party in a noticeably bigger way. It would make sense, if it was already here before it was said to be here.

And at no point does he define the difference between the Republic of the United States of America and the USA Corporation.

There isn't one? It has come up before, and it seems to me that we can find booksellers interested in promoting false claims about 1933 and 1871 (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?90676-1871-DC-Corp-National-Emergencies-bankruptcy&p=1068307&viewfull=1#post1068307)--the second of these being the year a government was made for Washington, D. C., which is not the federal government. A municipality is a corporation which can be bankrupted; the country is not.

The original country was not a Republic, it installed a Republican form of government (https://www.conservapedia.com/Republican_form_of_government):

It is a common error to assume that a republic is synonymous with a republican form of government.




We, the people may be benefitting now since air pollution (https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/2020/04/pollution-made-the-pandemic-worse-but-lockdowns-clean-the-sky/), a killer of millions, is dropping. Estimated about 7 million deaths per year but no one called for a ban on cars. I am pretty sure we will replace whatever goes missing as soon as we can.

Who Profits From the Pandemic?

You don’t need to read Michel Foucault’s work on biopolitics to understand that neoliberalism – in deep crisis since at least 2008 – is a control/governing technique in which surveillance capitalism is deeply embedded.

But now, with the world-system collapsing at breathtaking speed, neoliberalism is at a loss to deal with the next stage of dystopia, ever present in our hyper-connected angst: global mass unemployment.

Henry Kissinger, anointed oracle/gatekeeper of the ruling class, is predictably scared. He claims that, “sustaining the public trust is crucial to social solidarity.” He’s convinced the Hegemon should “safeguard the principles of the liberal world order.” Otherwise, “failure could set the world on fire.”

That’s so quaint. Public trust is dead across the spectrum. The liberal world “order” is now social Darwinist chaos. Just wait for the fire to rage.

The numbers are staggering. The Japan-based Asian Development Bank (ADB), in its annual economic report, may not have been exactly original. But it did note that the impact of the “worst pandemic in a century” will be as high as $4.1 trillion, or 4.8 percent of global GDP.

This an underestimation, as “supply disruptions, interrupted remittances, possible social and financial crises, and long-term effects on health care and education are excluded from the analysis.”

We cannot even start to imagine the cataclysmic social consequences of the crash. Entire sub-sectors of the global economy may not be recomposed at all.

The International Labor Organization (ILO) forecasts global unemployment at a conservative, additonal 24.7 million people – especially in aviation, tourism and hospitality.

The global aviation industry is a humongous $2.7 trillion business. That’s 3.6 percent of global GDP. It employs 2.7 million people. When you add air transport and tourism —everything from hotels and restaurants to theme parks and museums — it accounts for a minimum of 65.5 million jobs around the world.

According to the ILO, income losses for workers may range from $860 billion to an astonishing $3.4 trillion. “Working poverty” will be the new normal – especially across the Global South.

“Working poor,” in ILO terminology, means employed people living in households with a per capita income below the poverty line of $2 a day. As many as an additional 35 million people worldwide will become working poor in 2020.

Switching to feasible perspectives for global trade, it’s enlightening to examine that this report about how the economy may rebound is centered on the notorious hyperactive merchants and traders of Yiwu in eastern China – the world’s busiest small-commodity, business hub.

Their experience spells out a long and difficult recovery. As the rest of the world is in a coma, Lu Ting, chief China economist at Nomura in Hong Kong stresses that China faces a 30 percent decline in external demand at least until next Fall.

Greetings All,

I don’t know about everyone else but, paradoxically, ever since this lockdown started I seem to be getting busier and busier, several times feeling ‘there’s not enough hours in the day”. So, apologies I’ve haven’t had a chance to catch up with more than a couple of pages of this thread.

I just wanted to share this brilliant essay, sent to me by a friend, that took me a couple of sittings to finish. I found it so immensely intelligent, touching as it does, on every single aspect of this whole world changing event. If and when you get a slow hour, I highly recommend this perspective that very much resonates with where I’m at right now, seeking the rays of light and hope.


https://charleseisenstein.org/essays/the-coronation/

I’m circumventing the confinement by helping an older couple clear their storm battered garden, so I’ve been getting outside in lovely weather for several hours a day, haven’t been arrested yet...it’s been good to take my mind off the grim Orwellian nightmare that has threatened to overwhelm me some days. Get my feet on the grass, take a short yoga break beside a tree and think little more than ‘today is a beautiful day...’

Stay well, y’all.

A KILLER ENTERPRISE: HOW ONE OF BIG PHARMA’S MOST CORRUPT COMPANIES PLANS TO CORNER THE COVID-19 CURE MARKET

ONE OF THE MOST POLITICALLY-CONNECTED YET SCANDAL RIDDEN VACCINE COMPANIES IN THE UNITED STATES, WITH TROUBLING TIES TO THE 2001 ANTHRAX ATTACKS AND OPIOID CRISIS, IS SET TO PROFIT HANDSOMELY FROM THE CURRENT CORONAVIRUS CRISIS.


Formed for the sole purpose of acquiring a publicly-owned company in Michigan that held the exclusive license to manufacture the only FDA-approved anthrax vaccine in the United States, BioPort sought to quickly expand the size and scope of its contracts with the U.S. military. This strategy was made possible thanks to the former head of the Joints Chiefs of Staff, Adm. William Crowe, who would prove highly instrumental in the rise of BioPort’s vaccine monopoly and its subsequent, aggressive hiring of former government officials as lobbyists.

Yet, soon after scoring these multi-million dollar contracts and securing a monopoly on anthrax vaccines, BioPort would claim that they were flailing financially and would subsequently be bailed out to the tune of $24 million at the Pentagon’s request, which cited “national security concerns” as justification.

However, Pentagon auditors had found that much of the money awarded to BioPort was unaccounted for and the money they were able to trace had failed to go towards renovating their vaccine production facility, which had lost its license until numerous sanitary problems (sanitary and otherwise) were fixed. Meanwhile, scores of soldiers who had suffered ill health effects from BioPort’s anthrax vaccine, some disabled for life, began speaking out, bringing BioPort’s most critical product and chief source of income under unwanted scrutiny.

While BioPort seemingly faced imminent ruin from these and other scandals in August 2001, the 2001 anthrax attacks that followed a month later came at just the right time for the company, as demand for their anthrax vaccine soon skyrocketed, resulting in new lucrative government contracts. Their license was also quickly renewed thanks to intervention from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) despite many of the problems with its production facility persisting.

Though they were conveniently rescued by the unfortunate events of 2001, BioPort would soon lobby for larger contracts than ever before, calling for a massive increase in government purchases of their controversial anthrax vaccine. Riding the fear caused by the 2001 anthrax attacks, they pushed for the government to stockpile anthrax vaccines, not just for the military, but for civilians, postal workers, police and many more who could potentially be put in harm’s way were the anthrax attacks to repeat themselves.


Jerome Hauer

One of their biggest proponents of expanding BioPort’s contracts was working for HHS at the time — Jerome Hauer, a man who not only had foreknowledge of the anthrax attacks, but had also participated in the Dark Winter simulation that would also predict those same attacks just months prior. Hauer would, months later, be appointed to a newly created position at HHS, one which oversaw the new biodefense stockpile from which BioPort would be a major beneficiary.

BioPort would be then renamed and repackaged as Emergent Biosolutions in 2004. It would then hire even more well-connected lobbyists and add several big names from government and the private sector to its board. One of these “big names” was none other than Jerome Hauer, who was added to Emergent’s board soon after leaving HHS. Hauer still remains a company director and sits on three of its corporate governance committees.

Not only did Emergent Biosolutions profit from national anthrax fears, they would also cash in on subsequent pandemic panics and later receive substantial backing from the Bill Gates-backed Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI). They would then turn their attention to the still-raging opioid addiction and overdose crisis by buying rights to the only drug approved for treating opioid overdoses at the scene while also suing any and all generic producers of this crucial, life-saving treatment.

Given its history, it should come as little surprise that Emergent Biosolutions is now set to profit from the Coronavirus (Covid-19) crisis. They are particularly well-suited to make record profits off of Covid-19, as they are backing not one, but two, vaccine candidates as well as an experimental blood plasma treatment already approved for trials in New York state, thanks in part to Jerome Hauer’s old boss, New York governor Andrew Cuomo. As noted in a previous article for The Last American Vagabond, the other main companies developing Covid-19 vaccines in the U.S. are strategic partners of the controversial Pentagon research agency DARPA, which has become increasingly aligned with HHS in recent years thanks to another Dark Winter participant, Robert Kadlec.

In this second installment of the series “Engineering Contagion: Amerithrax, Coronavirus and the Rise of the Biotech-Industrial Complex,” Emergent Biosolution’s rise to prominence, made possible through acts of blatant corruption and the public-private revolving door, will be explored. The clear nexus between Big Pharma, Government and University-affiliated “Biosecurity Centers” offers a startling look into the Biotech-Industrial Complex that has long dominated U.S. biodefense policy and is now guiding much of the U.S. government’s response to the Coronavirus crisis.

Greetings All,

I don’t know about everyone else but, paradoxically, ever since this lockdown started I seem to be getting busier and busier, several times feeling ‘there’s not enough hours in the day”. So, apologies I’ve haven’t had a chance to catch up with more than a couple of pages of this thread.

I just wanted to share this brilliant essay, sent to me by a friend, that took me a couple of sittings to finish. I found it so immensely intelligent, touching as it does, on every single aspect of this whole world changing event. If and when you get a slow hour, I highly recommend this perspective that very much resonates with where I’m at right now, seeking the rays of light and hope.


https://charleseisenstein.org/essays/the-coronation/

I’m circumventing the confinement by helping an older couple clear their storm battered garden, so I’ve been getting outside in lovely weather for several hours a day, haven’t been arrested yet...it’s been good to take my mind off the grim Orwellian nightmare that has threatened to overwhelm me some days. Get my feet on the grass, take a short yoga break beside a tree and think little more than ‘today is a beautiful day...’

Stay well, y’all.

Excellent article Phoenix. If I was to have one criticism however, it would be that Eisenstein, undeniably erudite and intelligent as he is, does not seem to fully appreciate the kind of nuttiness and control-freakery that many governments like. But I'm nit-picking here. This is really good.

Trump Administration Opposes Bill Gates’ Vaccine Tracking System on ‘Personal Liberty’ Grounds

The Trump administration has come out against a proposed digital tracking system (https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/ag-barr-very-concerned-about-personal-liberty-after-gates-proposes-digital-vaccine-certificates) that could tell authorities about an individual’s vaccination history.

The Orwellian measure has been proposed by technocratic oligarch Bill Gates, who is attempting to exploit the coronavirus pandemic to inch closer toward mandatory vaccinations.

“Eventually we will have some digital certificates to show who has recovered or been tested recently or when we have a vaccine who has received it,” Gates said during an “Ask Me Anything” (https://bigleaguepolitics.com/as-coronavirus-panic-spreads-bill-gates-talks-up-digital-certificates-to-enforce-mandatory-vaccines/) appearance on Reddit about the coronavirus.

Attorney General Bill Barr is skeptical of Gates’ idea to tag people with these mark-of-the-beast implants. He said he is concerned about “the tracking of people and so forth, generally, especially going forward over a long period of time.” Barr also said that he is “very concerned about the slippery slope in terms of continuing encroachments on personal liberty.”

https://www.zerohedge.com/health/what-expanse-tells-us-about-covid-19-pandemic-and-gain-function-research





What 'The Expanse' Tells Us About The COVID-19 Pandemic And Gain-Of-Function Research

Over the past several months thousands of humans have lost their lives since COVID-19 kicked-off its killing spree in Wuhan, and barring an absolute miracle millions more all across the planet will join them in the months to come. Comparisons to the pandemic caused by the Spanish Flu earlier in the twentieth century abound, however one thing is clear: Whether due to globalization or to internal differences between the viruses, while the Spanish Flu was a slow-moving miasma that took years to unfurl across the globe, the Wuhan strain of coronavirus, COVID-19, has blanketed the entire planet in just a few months.

Factories all across the planet have ground to a halt, stores are shuttered, tens of millions are quarantined across multiple continents, and supply chains are disintegrating.

And oddly, even though there is nothing even beginning to approach conclusive evidence that COVID-19 was a naturally emergent strain that made its way out of an intermediate animal host and into humans, the general consensus in the media and the public seems to be that exploring its origins is something only done by people who’ve yet to buy that the Earth is in fact round and that we actually did land on the moon. And everyone seems to be okay with the fact that the scientists crowing the loudest about a natural origin, are the ones directly involved with the type of research that likely spawned this virus: Gain-of-function, or “dual-use” research that meant to push Nature past her limits, so that humans can harness her to create monsters that would never occur naturally.

Why the concentrated push to marginalize anyone asking for conclusive proof about where COVID-19 came from? Who benefits?

Hospital are laying off workers in the middle of the coronavirus pandemic
One nurse characterized the situation as: “You’re a hero, but also we don’t value you enough to prepare or pay you.”

The American health care workforce is being squeezed from two sides: by the coronavirus itself and a shortage of protective gear but also by the economic crisis, which is driving physician practices and now some hospitals to furlough or lay off staff at the very moment they are most needed.

My colleagues and I sounded the alarm about the first problem in this piece a couple of weeks ago. But the second is only beginning to fully reveal itself.

Altarum, a nonprofit research and consulting firm, reported last Friday that 43,000 health care workers had been laid off in the first month of the Covid-19 outbreak. That is a historical aberration: Health care has usually been cushioned from deep job cuts during economic crises, as this chart shows:
https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/Le0VN8fGUmjY48JjrWdwiACZAwM=/0x0:1578x770/920x0/filters:focal(0x0:1578x770):format(webp):no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/19884774/Screen_Shot_2020_04_08_at_12.48.32_PM.png

As you can see, there is nothing in the past 30 years that compares to the long red line on the right, representing those 43,000 lost jobs.

Most of the initial losses were in ambulatory services, according to Altarum: physician offices, dental practices, and other practitioners. Hospital staffing stayed mostly flat through the first month of the crisis.

But that is beginning to change already, with a slew of hospitals announcing furloughs or layoffs in recent days. Here is a collection of news reports I found, just by spending some time searching Google News:

Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston is laying off 900 people from its 17,000-person staff and asking full-time salaried employees to take a 15 percent pay cut, according to the Post & Courier; the hospital says it’s not laying off front-line workers at this time.
Essentia Health, a major medical system of clinics and hospitals in Duluth, Minnesota, is laying off 500 workers, per KBJR.
The Cookeville Regional Medical Center in Tennessee will be furloughing 400 of its 2,400-person staff, and a few hundred others will see a cut in their hours, Fox 17 Nashville reports.
Boston Medical Center is furloughing 10 percent of its staff, about 700 people, according to the Boston Globe.
Trinity Health Mid-Atlantic, which runs five hospitals in the Philadelphia area and employs 125,000 people there, will furlough an unspecific percentage of its staff, per the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Mercy Health, the largest health system in Ohio, is temporarily laying off 700 workers.
Two hospital systems in West Virginia are furloughing upward of 1,000 employees combined, Metro News reports.
The largest hospital system in eastern Kentucky is laying off 500 workers, according to the Lexington Herald-Leader.
I’m sure there are many more stories like these. But you get the idea.

Hospitals have typically said in these announcements that they are starting with nonmedical staff for furloughs and reduced hours, which is no solace to those workers but softens the impact on our medical capacity.

But it’s not clear how long medical systems can avoid cutting doctors and nurses as well, and some of them clearly cannot. I heard from a nurse in Texas, who asked that neither she nor her hospital be named for fear of professional repercussions, who has been furloughed because of the ongoing economic crisis.

She said how constrained she felt by the news. If she wanted to help with the coronavirus response by taking a job with a travel nursing service offering temporary postings in Covid-19 hot spots, for example, she would lose her old job and her health insurance.

”It really is frustrating to hear that you’re a hero but also we don’t value you enough to prepare or pay you,” she said. “I would be happy to temporarily relocate, work in a hot spot, and make the same wages as I normally would. I can’t afford to work for free, exactly, but it’s frustrating if I can’t work at all.”

Hospitals have taken huge revenue losses as they postpone elective surgeries and other routine care so they can make more staff and space available for the Covid-19 response. Some hospitals expect to lose half their income, and the top industry trade groups have warned that hundreds of hospitals could close after this crisis.

Congress pumped $100 billion into US hospitals as part of its first stimulus package, and Democratic leaders are already calling for another $100 billion in the next stimulus bill they hope Congress will pass.

But that may still not be enough, in the end. When one in four rural hospitals were already vulnerable to closure before the coronavirus struck, the current pandemic is almost certainly going to leave some hospitals with no choice but to close, no matter how much money the federal government provides.

“Even with all of that, there are going to be hospitals that close because of this,” Susan Dentzer, senior policy fellow at Duke University’s Margolis Center for Health Policy, told me recently.

Although today the need for increased health care capacity — for workers and facilities — is more apparent than ever, a grim future may await. And the fewer nurses and doctors we can keep employed in the meantime, the more difficult it will be to get the coronavirus under control in the first place.

Correction: This storyoriginally stated Mercy Health would be temporarily laying off 700 workers at St. Rita’s Medical Center in Lima, Ohio. Mercy is furloughing 700 people across the entire hospital system.

THIS BASICALLY MEANS THERE'S HARDLY NO-ONE COMING TO THE HOSPITALS FOR THE VIRUS!

I would say that this pretty accurate (and creepy) description.

[shaberon]

I have paid little attention to the debt in fifteen years, when it seemed insurmountable, but we recently passed a type of boundary.

Perhaps it will be called Weimar America (http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/55052.htm):

The Fed knows that when a nation’s sovereign debt exceeds 100% of GDP, “there’s almost no mathematical way to service that debt in real terms.” Well, the US passed that milestone way-back in 2019 before this latest drunken spending-spree even began."

And so from $23 trillion starting debt, the shenanigans are going to push it past $30 trillion.

Nobody voted against or even questioned the stimulus package, although they initially refused the much smaller 2008 TARP.

Part of what it does is stuff the Fed with a vast quantity of "high risk" securities. "..the Treasury has accepted the credit risk for all of the loans that default. In other words, the American people are now on the hook for 100% of all of the loans that go south, and there’s going to be a lot of them because the banks have no reason to find creditworthy borrowers. They get a 5% cut off-the-top whether the loans blow up or not...Uncle Sam will be the greatest credit risk on Planet Earth. Imagine how jaws will drop on the day that Moodys and Fitch slash the ratings on US Treasuries to Triple B “junk” status."

So the Fed is now sitting on a pile of toxic assets like Deutsche Bank, but we see where the risk and cost is passed to.

As far as I know, vampirization and destruction of the dollar has been the main task of Intelligence agencies for a long time, and the current situation is one really deep wound in that direction.

[norman]

Who does the FED owe the money to ?

[shaberon]

I am not sure the Fed owes any money?

Debt is held by the Treasury?

The Fed always makes a profit, and remits the excess to the Treasury. We give them money, they re-hypothecate it to ten times its value and this becomes the basis for commercial banks to make loans. However with "toxic assets", they can only bloom it seven times. It is unclear how much of this is derivatives, or bad mortgages, etc., but they are all someone else's debt which a bank turns around and uses as an asset to give loans to others. I may be mistaken, but I do not believe the Fed is ever in the position of being a borrower.

Who does the FED owe the money to ?

Actually if we fill in the blanks with a good chunk of the trillions just flung into the atmosphere, it will be exactly backwards.

As of "now" the Fed will use the money to buy 2/3 of all Treasuries on the market. If nothing changes, that puts the Treasury in debt to the Fed plus interest.

They will also start buying municipal bonds. The way your municipal corporation works, for example, is that it does not pay the fire department. It will go ask for perhaps a ten million dollar bond and pay it with that. And so now that means random cities, if nothing else changes, will be in debt to the Fed plus interest.

The reason I think it is an agenda is the Council on Foreign Relations (https://www.globalresearch.ca/one-world-governance-and-the-council-on-foreign-relations-we-shall-have-world-government-by-conquest-or-consent/5541363) and if you look globally, the same thing will happen: the IMF will for example loan a billion dollars to a country to help it through the crisis, but these loans are very expensive, and if you do not pay, they claim your land and infrastructure. The IMF could perhaps be described as a type of international consortium related to the Bank of International Settlements. The World Bank is almost purely an American CFR/State Department mouthpiece.

The CFR is primarily run by the Rockefeller, Ford, and Carnegie Foundations. According to a recent presidential candidate:

"I [Hillary Clinton] am delighted to be here in these new headquarters. I have been often to, I guess, the mother ship in New York City, but it’s good to have an outpost of the Council right here down the street from the State Department. We get a lot of advice from the Council, so this will mean I won’t have as far to go to be told what we should be doing and how we should think about the future."

It is an unelected, foreign-affiliated, privately-sponsored clique which then dictates to the unelected State Department. This is American foreign policy, whereas almost every other country in the world has an elected Foreign Minister who gets sacked if they do not like his performance. The IMF is also foreign, and the Secretary of the Treasury is an agent of it, which is why they agree with things that are of international financial interest rather than the voter base.

Same agenda for 95 years, but, on this particular virus situation, we can see it openly in leaps and bounds, as the financial machinations are so extreme. Along with noticeable amounts of what appears to be insider stock trading, there have been hundreds of major CEO resignations in the time frame before "virus panic" happening. This represents a lot of "experts" deciding it was time to cash out and get away from the risk of having to haul a company through a recession.

So there are circumstances which suggest it was time to "pull the plug" on the petro-dollar, which plays out in social engineering blamed on a disease, as a cover-up.

Correspondingly, the Saudi royal family is demolished with 150 cases, and is using it as an excuse to ask for peace with Yemen.

COVID: The squeeze play on the population
by Jon Rappoport
April 13, 2020
https://blog.nomorefakenews.com/2020/04/13/covid-the-squeeze-play-on-the-population/

"It’s a con as old as the hills. The ancient chieftain of a little territory looks out across his domain and says to his top aide, “You know, we have these clusters of people worshiping different gods. That’s not good for business. Our business is CONTROL, so we need UNITY. Make up the name of some god, and go out there and sell it. Take down those little shrines and tell all the people they have to believe in the new deity. Use force and censorship when necessary. Later on, I may decide I’M really the name you chose for the new god. We’ll see. If you have any trouble right away, call me on my cell. I’ll be out sunning by the pool.”

Unity of thought. That’s what controllers are after.

In the case of this fake epidemic, the population must view WHAT IT IS in the way public officials and the press are describing it. Dissenting analysis must be pushed into the background.

Here is a 4/9 Bloomberg News headline: “5G Conspiracy Theory Fueled by Coordinated Effort.” [1] A sub-headline states, “Researchers identify disinformation campaign but not source.” The article begins: “A conspiracy theory linking 5G technology to the outbreak of the coronavirus is quickly gaining momentum…”

Obviously, such wayward thinking has to be stopped. And down further in the Bloomberg article, we have chilling news: “Some social media companies have taken action to limit the spread of coronavirus conspiracy theories on their platforms. On Tuesday, Google’s YouTube said that it would ban all videos linking 5G technology to coronavirus, saying that ‘any content that disputes the existence or transmission of Covid-19’ would now be in violation of YouTube policies.”

“In the U.K., a parliamentary committee on Monday called on the British government to do more to ‘stamp out’ coronavirus conspiracy theories, and said it was planning to hold a hearing later this year at which representatives from U.S. technology giants will be asked about how they have handled the spread of disinformation on their platforms.”

Independent analysis of the “epidemic” hangs in the balance. The masters of control want to maintain an information monopoly.

It goes without saying that, in order to achieve this monopoly, detailed surveillance of Internet content is necessary.

Another type of surveillance is also part of the squeeze play. Apple.com has the story (press release, 4/10) [2]:

“Across the world, governments and health authorities are working together to find solutions to the COVID-19 pandemic, to protect people… Since COVID-19 can be transmitted through close proximity to affected individuals, public health officials have identified contact tracing as a valuable tool to help contain its spread. A number of leading public health authorities, universities, and NGOs around the world have been doing important work to develop opt-in contact tracing technology.”

“To further this cause, Apple and Google will be launching a comprehensive solution that includes application programming interfaces (APIs) and operating system-level technology to assist in enabling contact tracing. Given the urgent need, the plan is to implement this solution in two steps while maintaining strong protections around user privacy.”

“First, in May, both companies will release APIs that enable interoperability between Android and iOS devices using apps from public health authorities. These official apps will be available for users to download via their respective app stores.”

“Second, in the coming months, Apple and Google will work to enable a broader Bluetooth-based contact tracing platform by building this functionality into the underlying platforms. This is a more robust solution than an API and would allow more individuals to participate, if they choose to opt in, as well as enable interaction with a broader ecosystem of apps and government health authorities. Privacy, transparency, and consent are of utmost importance in this effort, and we look forward to building this functionality in consultation with interested stakeholders. We will openly publish information about our work for others to analyze.”

“All of us at Apple and Google believe there has never been a more important moment to work together to solve one of the world’s most pressing problems. Through close cooperation and collaboration with developers, governments and public health providers, we hope to harness the power of technology to help countries around the world slow the spread of COVID-19 and accelerate the return of everyday life.”

If you believe citizen privacy is an utmost concern in the minds of Google and Apple, I have condos for sale on the far side of the moon.

The tracing tools appear to involve a very rapid expansion of Snitch Culture. What else are “opt-in users” going to communicate about? The weather? Lunch?

“Dear Relevant Users and Public Health Officials: Yes, I know Marty. Sad to hear he’s been diagnosed with COVID-19. I did have a brief meeting with him just prior to the lockdown. I suppose I might be infected. I should get tested right away. Let’s see, who else was at the meeting? Marty’s brother, Felix, and Carrie, who is Felix’ on and off girlfriend. Six months ago she was tested for an STD, I don’t know the results—Sandy, the broker at Wilson and Wise was also at the meeting—OMG, that could mean the whole company is infected—and Sandy’s dog Tootsie—can animals spread the virus?—then there was a janitor who came into the room, I think his name is Al. He lives down near the docks. He has a brother who I hear is a drug dealer and a compulsive gambler. He owes money to some nasty people, I think…Anything I can do to stop the spread of the virus, let me know…”

Enlist the citizenry to act as spies on each other. A useful tactic.

It rips the fabric of social trust.

It blows apart privacy.

It exposes people to government intervention.

It cements the UNITY DICTUM: the epidemic has only one portrait, and the population must bow before it.

An answer? A counter? More citizens must become independent reporters and publish their findings. More citizens must set up blogs and sites that act as old-fashioned street newsstands, posting the work of independent journalists and investigators.

For every ten they censor, a hundred must spring up.

Nothing is riding on this except the immediate future—freedom, slavery, medical dictatorship, a borderless planet operated as one super-corporation, the individual vs. the collective, the energy of the individual soul.

Or people can say doom is upon us and nothing can be done about it.

Or people can sit at home and suck on the lockdown lollipop.

I was looking for an old article about a cover-up that I could not find, but this seems a bit strange about Corporate Debt (https://www.globalresearch.ca/corporations-broke-time-cut-their-credit-cards/5708053):

"Since 2008, household debt levels have actually declined and are now lower than they were going into the last crash. But not corporate debt. Measured as a firm’s “net debt” compared to its EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization), corporate debt has doubled since the last crash. In 2009, the average American company owed $2 of debt for every $1 in earnings. Today, the average firm carries net debt to EBITDA of 3 to 1, and many firms — like Ford Motor, CarMax, Harley-Davidson, and General Motors — carry ratios ranging from 8 to 1, to as high as 15 to 1. Boeing, a special case because of its 737 MAX crisis, carries a ratio of 37 to 1. Over the last two decades, corporate America’s credit rating has collapsed. In the early ’90s, more than sixty companies held AAA credit ratings. Today, only two US firms are AAA rated: Johnson & Johnson and Microsoft. In 2001, fewer than one in five “investment-grade” firms were rated BBB. Today half of all investment-grade corporate debt belongs to firms rated “triple-B” (BBB) or lower. A third of those firms are rated triple-B minus (BBB-), one notch away from speculative or “junk” status."


It smells strange since the only two top-ranked companies are all about some vaccination. Especially if J&J has just been smooth sailing through a plethora of rather ghastly lawsuits and then to receive the new contract in a relatively unrealistic manner. Not too far off from how governments were apparently bilked for millions of Swine Flu doses that were never used.

The situation with most of those companies since the last round of favoritism has been in buying back their own stock, which makes nice market stats, but does nothing for the real economy, and that is where they stand as a result, deeper in debt.

So in terms of the timing, the most recent punch to the face comes when there is a noticeable world's workaround away from the dollar, national debt exceeded Gross National Product, and most corporations owed three times what they make. Then we get what isn't really a legal nationalization of the Fed, but an effective one, by loading it with unprecedented amounts of things that don't belong there, while printing a big pile of cash.

I have noticed a phrase being continually inserted into news accounts. We must learn to accept a “NEW NORMAL”.. definitely programming.

Yes it's very prominent but we should really see it as a "variable" we can fill with what we want it to be, rather than a "constant", which is what they are trying to ram it home as.

Im thinking that in a kind of computer program algebra way.

Yea, let them say New Normal a thousand times a day, but each time you hear it, think of a GOOD new normal.

OUR PLAN VS. HIS PLAN -- Ole Dammegard

"Ole Dammegard, Danish independent researcher joins Sean at the SGT Report to discuss the unprecedented, surreal situation in which most of us in the world find ourselves today.

Now in his 27th day of lockdown in southern Spain, where Ole’s been based for over 20 years, the military police are in full control and people there are subject to a 1,500 euro fine for leaving their homes if they don’t have grocery store receipts to prove where they’ve been.

He feels we’re either on the brink of the most nightmarish New World Order Scenario or something really, really amazing. In all his years, he’s never seen so much bewilderment among his fellow independent researchers. This lockdown will either become the permanent New World Order or there are mass-arrests being made of Deep State criminals and their overlords, the central banker cabal.

The first we see in the mainstream media, where people like Bill Gates and Anthony Fauci tell us that there will be no “normalcy” until the release of a vaccine for COVID-19 plus an RFID tattoo that tracks your every move.

The second, he says we would see during an imminent shutdown of the Internet, which he says will be primarily to stop the illegal cabal financial transactions, to starve them out, followed by a reboot of the global financial system, backed by gold, although like everyone else, he has zero evidence to support the rumor.

Also like many others, Ole believes the pandemic was supposed to be way worse than what we’re seeing. Last year, Ole became aware of 9/11-style operation, only much more massive called Operation Sea Eagle to take place under the guise of disaster drills on October 23th-24th. Unless exposed, it would have seen attacks on two nuclear plants in Sweden and 39 targets in five EU cities, including London, Manchester, Barcelona, Paris and Rotterdam for the purpose of disrupting the many movements seeking to exit from the EU.

Ole believes that the Event201 drill held during the same period in New York City (and the 2019 World Military Games simultaneously held in Wuhan, China) sponsored by Michael Bloomberg, Bill Gates and he World Economic Forum was a related drill driven by the same Globalist dream of a One World Government, as proposed in an OpEd by Henry Kissinger a week ago."

COVID-19 Meltdown and Pharma’s Big Money Win
by Barbara Loe Fisher
Published April 14, 2020
https://thevaccinereaction.org/2020/04/covid-19-meltdown-and-pharmas-big-money-win/

"Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) told Americans on Apr. 1, 2020 that modeling reports suggested COVID-19 infections could eventually “kill 100,000 to 240,000 Americans,”1 2 3 which was considerably less than the worst case 1.7 million mortality figure the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) talked about on Mar. 13,4 and a fraction of the doomsday 2.2 million mortality figure projected by a scientist at Imperial College London.5 6 The next day, Fauci called for an all-state nationwide lockdown7 and CDC officials instructed Americans to cover their faces with cloth masks if they have to leave their homes to buy food or seek medical care.8

On Apr. 6, University of Washington modeling experts, who influenced the setting of current federal and state “social distancing” policies, lowered U.S. COVID-19 mortality estimates from the worst case 162,000 fatalities they predicted on Mar. 26 to about 82,000 deaths.9 10 Two days later, on Apr. 8, they lowered U.S. mortality estimates even further to 60,415 deaths by Aug. 4, but included the caveat “assuming full social distancing through May 2020.”11

With the U.S. economy in meltdown, this week, Dr. Fauci warned that, until a COVID-19 vaccine is available, we have to prepare for a new normal. He said:12

If back to normal means acting like there never was a coronavirus problem, I don’t think that is going to happen until we have a situation where you can completely protect the population.

If you want to get to pre-coronavirus, that might never happen in the sense of the fact that the threat is there,” but I believe with the therapies that will be coming online and the fact that I feel confident that over a period of time, we will get a good vaccine, we will never have to get back to where we are right now.

COVID-19 Deaths by the Numbers
By Apr. 12, 2020, there had been nearly 22,000 COVID-19 related deaths reported in the U.S. population of 325 million people and over 110,000 deaths in a global population of 7.8 billion people.13 According to the CDC, most cases are asymptomatic or mild, including in children,14 unless an individual has an underlying chronic health problem like asthma, obesity, diabetes, autoimmunity, immune suppression, high blood pressure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or heart disease.15 16 17 18

There are large mortality variations among different countries and similar wide variations in mortality among populations living in different states in the U.S.19 At least one study published on Apr. 5 has found that air pollution subjecting individuals to long term exposure to fine matter particulates greatly increases the risk for death from COVID-19, noting that, “The majority of the pre-existing conditions that increase the risk of death for COVID-19 are the same diseases that are affected by long-term exposure to air pollution.”20

A small increase in long-term exposure to PM2.5 [fine particulate matter] leads to a large increase in COVID-19 death rate, with the magnitude of increase 20 times that observed for PM2.5 and all-cause mortality. The study results underscore the importance of continuing to enforce existing air pollution regulations to protect human health both during and after the COVID-19 crisis.

A Mar. 30 report in The Lancet estimated the overall case fatality ratio in China has been 1.38 percent, but is substantially higher in those over 60 years old.21 Recent published data from the CDC also confirms that mortality in the U.S. is much higher among senior citizens over age 65, rising to 10 to 27 percent for those over age 85.22 The CDC continues to state that individuals at higher risk for serious illness from COVID-19 infection are those over age 65 and “people of all ages with underlying medical conditions, particularly if not well controlled.”23

U.S. COVID-19 Mortality Statistics: Science or Assumptions?
On Mar. 24, the Director of Division of Vital Statistics, National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) operated by the CDC issued a COVID-19 memo Alert with Q&A instructions informing doctors and coroners that “a newly-introduced ICD code [UO7.1 COVID-19] has been implemented to accurately capture mortality data for Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) on death certificates.” When determining the underlying cause of death listed on the death certificate, the memo states that:

The underlying cause [of death] depends upon what and where conditions are reported on the death certificate. However the rules for coding and selection of the underlying cause of death are expected to result in COVID-19 being the underlying cause more often than not.

CDC officials make it clear that on cases where the death certificate indicates uncertainty about the cause of death, there likely be no follow up and the death will be listed as COVID-19:

If a death certificate reports terms such as “probable COVID-19” or “likely COVID-19,” these terms would be assigned the new ICD code [UO7.1 COVID-19]. It is not likely that NCHS will follow up on these cases.

Finally, answering the question, “Should COVID-19” be reported on the death certificate only with a confirmed test?” the CDC’s memo emphasizes that lab confirmation of COVID-19 is unnecessary to list the cause of death as COVID-19 on the death certificate:

“COVID-19 should be reported on the death certificate for all decedents where the disease caused or is assumed to have caused or contributed to death.” [boldfaced text was boldfaced in the CDC’s Alert].

In an Apr. 9 NBC “Today Show” interview, Dr. Fauci was asked whether some deaths are being falsely counted as COVID-19 deaths when they are really due to other causes. He replied:24

There’s absolutely no evidence that that’s the case at all. I think it falls under the category of something that’s been unfortunate―conspiracy theories that we hear about every time we have a crisis of any sort. There’s always this popping up of conspiracy theories. I think the deaths that we’re seeing are coronavirus deaths and the other deaths are not being counted as coronavirus deaths… I think there’s more of a chance of missing some that are really coronavirus deaths not being counted.

Economic and Social Meltdown Continues
More than two months after the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the outbreak of COVID-19 in China as a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern,”25 which was followed the next day by the CDC’s Jan. 31 declaration of a national Public Health Emergency in the U.S.,26 it appears that the government’s pandemic planning efforts spanning four decades failed to prepare federal and state health agencies to respond quickly,27 28 29 30 31 despite federal legislation 32 that ensured substantial annual congressional appropriations to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) since 2006 for pandemic planning.33 34 Right now, COVID-19 testing kits are slowly rolling into the states but in limited quantities,35 36 and health care workers are continuing to report critical shortages of personal protective equipment (PPE) and medical supplies.37 38 39

With almost every state government following federal guidelines and either requesting or ordering residents to quarantine themselves at home – whether they are healthy or sick – families are facing unprecedented economic losses.40 On Apr. 3, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported huge declines in employment in the leisure and hospitality industries – mainly in food and beverage – but also in healthcare, social assistance, professional and business services, retail trade, and construction.41 Unemployment in the U.S. rose by almost a full percentage point to 4.4 percent, the largest over-the-month rate increase since 1975, with the number of unemployed persons rising from 1.4 million to 7.1 million in March. The BLS report said the sharp unemployment increases reflects the “efforts to contain” the coronavirus in the U.S.

Lower income families without savings and dependent upon hourly wages and part-time work in service professions are hit especially hard.42 Understaffed social service support systems are struggling to cope with significant increases in depression, spousal and child abuse, and calls to suicide hotlines.43 44 45

However, some scientists,46 47 doctors 48 and politicians 49 want quarantines to stay in effect beyond April 31, even though the managing director of the International Monetary Fund Kristalina Georgieva warned on Apr. 9 that the economic fallout of shutdowns is approaching that of the Great Depression.50

We are still faced with extraordinary uncertainty about the depth and duration of this crisis. It is already clear, however, that global growth will turn sharply negative in 2020, as you will see in our World Economic Outlook next week. In fact, we anticipate the worst economic fallout since the Great Depression.

Bill Gates Calls for 10 Week Nationwide Shutdown and Certificates of Immunity Allowing Unrestricted Movement
In an OpEd in the Mar. 31 The Washington Post, Microsoft founder and philanthropist social reformer Bill Gates called for a nationwide federally enforced quarantine for all states that would last “10 weeks or more:”

Because people can travel freely across state lines, so can the virus. The country’s leaders need to be clear: Shutdown anywhere means shutdown everywhere. Until the case numbers start to go down across America—which could take 10 weeks or more—no one can continue business as usual or relax the shutdown.51 52

Several days earlier in a TED interview, Gates talked about how the strict social distancing and quarantine measures in place in the U.S. are designed to prevent a majority of the U.S. population from being infected with and recovering from COVID-19, which confers natural immunity and contributes to herd immunity in human populations. He also stated there will be a need for people to have “certificates” that prove they have either recovered from the infection or have been vaccinated once a vaccine is produced. He said:53

Now we don’t want to have a lot of recovered people, you know. To be clear, we’re trying through the shutdown in the United States, to not get to one percent of the population infected. We’re well below that today, but with expotentiation you could get past that three million. I believe we will be able to avoid that with having this economic pain.

Eventually, what we’ll have to have is certificates of who is a recovered person, who’s a vaccinated person, because you don’t want people moving around the world where you’ll have some countries that won’t have it under control, sadly. You don’t want to completely block off the ability for people to go there and come back and move around.

Fauci Agrees with Gates: COVID-19 Natural Herd Immunity Not Wanted
At a Apr. 6, White House briefing of the Coronavirus Task Force, Dr. Fauci confirmed that strict social distancing and quarantine measures are at least partially in place to prevent populations from developing natural herd immunity. He said:54

One issue that’s going to be important and it has to do with somewhat of a comparison, for example, with influenza. We go through multiple cycles of influenza [and] there’s always a degree of background immunity in a population. That will ultimately happen [with COVID-19] if we get a situation where we get back to normal. Now, I hope we don’t have so many people infected that we actually have that herd immunity, but I think it would have to be different than it is right now.

In an Apr. 9 interview on National Public Radio (NPR), Bill Gates returned to the message that some “social distancing” measures have to stay in place “until we get a vaccine that almost everybody’s had.” He said:

What I’m saying, what Dr. [Anthony] Fauci is saying, what some other experts are saying, there’s a great deal of consistency. We’re not sure yet which activities should be resumed, because until we get a vaccine that almost everybody’s had, the risk of a rebound will be there. … As we follow the numbers into May and see if we can get them down to a very low level, then in parallel, this debate about which things have benefits to society and can be formatted so the infection risk is very low, which things should we resume? I do think manufacturing, construction, a lot of things we’ll do, but large public gatherings may have to wait until we have that vaccine.

Governments Make Fast Tracked COVID-19 Vaccines Main Priority
Immediately after the Jan. 30 WHO declaration that a novel coronavirus outbreak in China posed a “public health emergency of international concern,” press releases were issued by the Gates Foundation 55 and World Health Organization (WHO)56 informing the world that experimental coronavirus vaccines already in development would be put on a fast track to licensure for global use.

On Mar. 9, WHO released its COVID-19 R&D roadmap that, according to BioWorld, had been endorsed by “400 experts” and included funding from the European Commission (37.5 million euros), German government (10 million euros) and an additional 46 million euros from the UK government, with 20 million euros going directly to the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness (CEPI) for vaccine development. CEPI committed $100 million to speed up licensure of COVID-19 vaccines but said it was trying to raise $2B more to speed vaccines to market.57

The WHO’s R&D plan stated there was an “urgent need” to fill in scientific knowledge gaps about the “basic biology” of COVID-19 infection and clinical evolution of COVID-19 and its epidemiology, as well as the need to develop appropriate animal models for research because some previous SARS and MERS vaccine studies in animals showed enhanced respiratory disease can occur in vaccinated animals after exposure to the live virus. The WHO roadmap stated, “Evaluating the potential for enhanced disease in humans is critical before [vaccines] can be assessed through larger-scale studies.” 58

By mid-March and early April, the WHO, National Institutes of Health,59 universities, 60 and global pharmaceutical corporations61 had announced development of more than 50 experimental COVID-19 vaccines.62 63 Using vitamin and supplement therapies or currently licensed prescription drugs64 65 66 67 68 69 has taken a back seat to an aggressive push to keep restrictive “social distancing” measures in place until fast tracked experimental vaccines are licensed.70 71 72

Maintaining that the only solution to dealing with the new coronavirus is universal use of a new vaccine,73 74 this single solution approach guarantees even bigger profits in the exploding global vaccine market that has doubled over the past decade from $20B in 2010 75 to $42B in 2018. 76 Dominated by the UK’s GlaxoSmithKline, France’s Sanofi and U.S. drug giants Merck and Pfizer, the vaccine market is projected to double again by 2026 to over $93B.77

There are already reports from Wall Street predicting big gains in Biotech stocks based on multiple companies developing COVID-19 vaccines and new drugs.78 One company, Moderna, which is partnering with the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) headed by Dr. Fauci, has seen a 78 percent increase in its stock price since it announced in February that its experimental messenger RNA vaccine was ready for clinical trials.79 The company’s CEO has become a new billionaire overnight.80

Big Pharma Getting More Money to Deliver COVID-19 Vaccines by Late 2020 or Early 2021
Responding to the call by public health officials to lockdown the U.S. with in-home quarantines, Congress passed the CARES Act signed into law on Mar. 27, 2020 that will cost American taxpayers over two trillion dollars. The federal legislation includes $27B for development of COVID-19 vaccines, drug therapies and purchase of pandemic medical supplies. The legislation did not include a cap placed on how much money drug companies can charge and profits they can make on the COVID-19 vaccines and drug therapies they develop with the use of money from the government. Already, there are questions being raised about just how far the price gouging will go when those COVID-19 drugs and vaccines are licensed by the FDA and recommended by the CDC.81

On Mar. 30, the HHS Assistant Secretary of Preparedness and Response announced that the government is taking steps to “speed the development and manufacturing of vaccines to prevent COVID-19.”82 The same day, Johnson & Johnson issued a press release stating that the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) had awarded J&J’s Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies $1B to establish new U.S. vaccine manufacturing capabilities and additional production capacity outside the U.S and produce a global supply of more than 1 billion doses of the COVID-19 vaccine using AdVac® and PER.C6® technologies.83 J&J plans to initiate human clinical studies in September 2020 and deliver the first batches of vaccine for emergency use authorization in early 2021.84

BARDA was created by Congress in 2006 under the Pandemic and All Hazards Preparedness Act,85 legislation that has given billions of dollars to DHHS since then to develop “bioterrorism” and pandemic influenza vaccines.86 That federal legislation also removed all civil liability from pharmaceutical companies for injuries and deaths caused by vaccines and drugs manufactured in response to declared public health emergencies, such as pandemics.87

According to a Mar. 30 Reuters report, Moderna, Inc. “also signed a deal with the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The arrangements are part of the federal government’s effort to encourage drugmakers to be able to produce massive amounts of COVID-19 vaccines even before any are proven to work.”88

Earlier in March, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) headed by Dr. Fauci issued a press release on Mar. 16 announcing that a Phase1 human clinical trial conducted by Kaiser Permanente Washington Health Research Institute in Seattle has begun to evaluate an experimental mRNA vaccine for COVID-19 (mRNA-1273) co-developed by NIAID scientists and scientists at Moderna, Inc, based in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness (CEPI) helped fund the manufacturing of the vaccine for the Phase 1 clinical trial.89

Moderna and NIAID are conducting human trials of the experimental mRNA-1273 COVID-19 vaccine without first conducting animal trials, which has always been an important part of the vaccine licensing process.90 On Mar. 30, Moderna stated that its COVID-19 vaccine might be read for emergency use in some people, including healthcare workers, by the fall of 2020:91

The Company further reported that while a commercially-available vaccine is not likely to be available for at least 12-18 months, it is possible that under emergency use, a vaccine could be available to some people, possibly including healthcare professionals, in the fall of 2020. Any emergency use would be subject to authorization by the appropriate regulatory agencies, based on the emergence of clinical data for mRNA-1273 that would support use of the vaccine prior to licensure.

An Apr. 3 Philadelphia Inquirer article trumpeting that “Coronavirus has created a new golden age for vaccines and Philly is at the heart of it,”92 pointed out at least part of the heavy financial investments the U.S. government has made in vaccine development through BARDA since 2006:

When the original BioShield funding ran out, Congress began a series of annual appropriations totaling about $1.5 billion a year to fund BARDA vaccine development efforts and to build up the emergency medical stockpile. A special $5 billion was appropriated for the multinational Ebola virus fight in 2015.

The [March 2020] CARES Act has multiplied those resources, splitting $27 billion between rebuilding the depleted medical stockpile and BARDA vaccine funding—on top of $6 billion appropriated for those purposes in the first anti-coronavirus bills last winter.

Experimental COVID-19 Vaccines Using Eight Different Platforms
Coronaviruses are a group of diverse, single-stranded, enveloped RNA viruses that cause a wide range of respiratory, gastrointestinal and neurologic illnesses with varying severity in animals and humans. Most coronaviruses, including those causing the common cold, are not associated with significant mortality, with the exception of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV), which emerged in China in 2002, and the coronavirus causing Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS-CoV), which was identified in Jordan and Saudi Arabia in 2012.93 COVID-19 is referred to in the medical literature as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) or COVID-19.94

Drug companies and government agencies racing to be the first to license a COVID-19 vaccine, are using different technology platforms to create experimental vaccines: inactivated virus; attenuated virus; protein subunit; virus-like particle, DNA, RNA and non-replicating vector.95 Traditional vaccines contain attenuated or inactivated viruses and bacteria or proteins, as well as adjuvants, such as aluminum, to stimulate an immune response that produces artificial immunity. For example, older viral vaccines for smallpox and measles vaccine contain live attenuated viruses; injectable influenza vaccines contain inactivated viruses; the recombinant hepatitis B virus vaccine is a protein subunit vaccine, while the newer human papillomavirus (HPV) virus vaccine contains virus like particles.

For the past two decades, researchers have been experimenting with new technology platforms, notably ones that introduce foreign DNA and RNA into cells of the body, to develop experimental vaccines for SARS, MERS, HIV and other diseases but, so far, none have been proven effective and safe for humans.96

DNA and mRNA Vaccines: Flying Blind into Uncharted Territory
Gene-based vaccines encode a viral protein from a pathogen (like COVID-19) in human DNA or mRNA. DNA vaccines deliver pieces of DNA into human cells to stimulate the immune system to create antibodies specific to pathogenic proteins without causing disease. DNA vaccines require no culture or fermentation for production and no refrigeration after production because they are made in a lab using synthetic processes, and can be produced in large quantities for less money than traditional vaccines.97

Messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines inject human cells with mRNA, usually within lipid nanoparticles, to stimulate cells in the body to become manufacturers of viral proteins.98 99 In March 2020, a virologist at Imperial College London told Chemistry World that one advantage of using mRNA technology to make vaccines for humans is that, “Rather than generating proteins in a manufacturing plant and purifying them, you are getting the muscle to do the job and make the protein itself.”100 Like DNA vaccines, mRNA vaccines can be produced in the lab using faster and less expensive process than traditional vaccines. RNA vaccines can be delivered with syringes, nasal spray or needle-free into the skin (patches).

Although neither DNA or mRNA vaccines have been tested in large-scale clinical trials, an Apr. 3 article in Chemical and Engineering News highlights the breakneck speed at which COVID-19 vaccines “are moving new technologies from the computer and into the clinic at an unprecedented rate.” What should be separate pre-licensure phases for proving safety and effectiveness – preclinical animal models, clinical testing, and manufacturing – are now “happening all at once.”101

“It’s like building an airplane when you are flying,” said Inovio Pharmaceuticals CEO Joseph Kim.
“They have been described as the vaccines of the future,” says Dan Barouch, Director of the Center for Virology and Vaccine Research at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. “However, they have not yet been pressure-tested… The COVID crisis is a great opportunity for those technologies to be pushed.”
“It will be the first time that they will be tested in so many people,” says Wim Tiest, a former vaccine developer at GlaxoSmithKline now heading up a COVID-19 program at the Belgian mRNA vaccine company eTheRNA Immunotherapies.
But will spending lots of money to cut corners and speed up licensing of COVID-19 vaccines using experimental DNA and mRNA technology – or other types of new technology–end up putting millions of people at risk for vaccine failures and reactions leading to chronic illness?

There are nagging questions about DNA102 and mRNA 103 vaccine platforms and they are not trivial. According to a 2011 article in Harvard College Global Health Review, DNA vaccine safety concerns include potential side effects as:104

“chronic inflammation because the vaccine continually stimulates the immune system to produce antibodies;”
“possible integration of plasmid DNA into the body’s host genome, resulting in mutations, problems with DNA replication, triggering of autoimmune responses, and activation of cancer-causing genes;”
According to researchers at University of Pennsylvania and Duke University, mRNA vaccines also have potential safety issues:105

Local and systemic inflammation;
Stimulation of auto-reactive antibodies;
Induction of a potent type 1 inteferon responses, which have been associated with inflammation and potential autoimmunity;
Presence of extracellular RNA, which may contribute to edema and pathogenic thrombus formation (blood clots).
Top COVID-19 Vaccine Candidates Being Tested
Following is a selection of companies identified by MarketWatch that are among those leading the race to be the first to get a COVID-19 vaccine licensed for global use:106 107

Inovio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (US). Inovio’s COVID-19 vaccine (INO-4800) is a DNA vaccine that will be tested in 30 clinical trials in the U.S., China and South Korea in April 2020. Headquartered in Pennsylvania, Inovio has partnered with Philadelphia’s Wistar Institute, Ology Bioservices, Inc. and Beijing Advaccine Biotechnology Co. in China 108 with plans to have 1 million doses of the vaccine ready for further trials or “emergency use” by the end of 2020.

Inovio received a $5M grant from the Gates Foundation to test a delivery device for INO-4800 and a $9M grant from CEPI to accelerate development of the COVID-19 vaccine. In partnership with Florida-based Ology Bioservices, Inc, Inovio secured a $11.9M contract with the Department of Defense for upcoming clinical trials and potential manufacturing of the vaccine for military personnel in the future.109

Describing Inovio’s DNA vaccine, Precision Vaccinations states:110

This one-of-a-kind platform delivers optimized DNA into cells, where it is translated into proteins that activate an individual’s immune system to generate a robust targeted T cell and antibody response. CELLECTRA uses a brief electrical pulse to open small pores in the cell reversibly to allow the plasmids to enter. Once inside the cell, the plasmids begin replicating, thereby strengthening the body’s own natural response mechanisms.

Johnson & Johnson, Inc. (U.S.) J&J is working with BARDA, which has awarded the company $1B, to develop on an adenovirus vectored COVID-19 vaccine using J&J’s Advac technology and PER.C6111 (cell line derived by transformation of embryonic retinal epithelial cells with human adenovirus type 5 E1 region gene) for production.

Phase 1 clinical trials of the J&J vaccine are scheduled for September 2020 and the company is planning to have investigational doses of vaccine available for “emergency use” by early 2021.

Moderna, Inc. (U.S.) In partnership with the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), Moderna’s mRNA vaccine is being tested on adults in Phase 1 clinical trials in Seattle with funding from NIAID, BARDA and CEPI. Moderna plans to have vaccine doses available for “emergency use” by the end of 2020.

Pfizer, Inc. (U.S.) and BioNTech (Germany) In a joint venture with BioNTech, Pfizer will develop and distribute an mRNA vaccine produced by BioNTech (BNT-162), expected to enter clinical testing by the end of April 2020 in Germany and the U.S. BioNTech is also testing the vaccine in collaboration with Shanghai Fosun Pharmaceutical Group in China.

Dynavax Technologies Corp. (U.S.) and Clover Biopharmaceuticals (China) China’s Clover Biopharmaceuticals has developed a protein-based subunit coronavirus vaccine candidate (COVID-19 S-Trimer) and Dynavax, a California based biotech company, is providing technical expertise and the company’s proprietary toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) agonist adjuvant, CpG 1018 for use in Clover’s COVID-19 vaccine.

Dynavax’s CpG 1018 is a synthetic oligonucleotide adjuvant that is used in recombinant hepatitis B vaccine Heplisav-B. Dynavax is also collaborating with Australia’s University of Queensland as part of a CEPI initiative to develop a COVID-19 vaccine.

GlaxoSmithKline plc (U.K.) and Clover Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (China) GSK has an AS03 vaccine adjuvant system platform that it is making available to Australia’s University of Queensland and to Clover Biopharmaceuticals, Inc., a Chinese biotechnology company that will use GSK’s AS03 adjuvant in combination with a COVID-19 S-Trimer vaccine. S-Trimer is a trimeric SARS-CoV-2 spike (S)-protein subunit vaccine candidate.

Sanofi SA (France). Sanofi is working with BARDA to use its recombinant DNA platform to test a preclinical vaccine candidate for SARS to manufacture a COVID-19 vaccine. In 2017, Sanofi acquired Protein Sciences, which had been developing a SARS vaccine.

Novavax, Inc. (U.S.). Novavax’s COVID-19 vaccine candidate (NVX-CoV2373) is a stable, prefusion protein made using Novavax’ proprietary nanoparticle technology and the company’s proprietary Matrix-M™ adjuvant will be incorporated into it to stimulate high levels of neutralizing antibodies.112 According to Novavax, Matrix-M is a sanponin-based adjuvant that contain purified saponin fractions mixed with synthetic cholesterol and a phospholipid to form stable particles that stimulate a strong immune response and “enhancing antigen presentation in the local lymph nodes.”113

Novavax has received $4M from CEPI to develop a COVID-19 vaccine and Emergent Biosolutions, Inc. has indicated it would support contract development and manufacturing of the vaccine. The company plans to start Phase 1 clinical studies by June.

CureVac AG (Germany). CureVac, a German biotech company, which has received 80 million euros in funding from the European Commission, has developed an mRNA vaccine for COVID-19. It is planning to test the vaccine in human clinical trials (Phase 1 and Phase 2) this summer and wants to skip Phase 3 trials so the vaccine can be on the market by this fall.114

Vaxart, Inc. (U.S.). Vaxart is a California based biotech company that has a partnership with Emergent Biosolutions, InC to develop Vaxart’s oral COVID-19 candidate. Based on Vaxart’s proprietary VAAST platform, the vaccine is a room temperature stable tablet that is swallowed and provides mucosal immunity.

Sweden Refused to Lockdown
Sweden, a country with a population of 10M people refused to lockdown its country because of COVID-19 despite heavy criticism. Although Sweden requested its citizens to stay home if sick and practice social distancing when possible, the government did not close businesses, primary schools, restaurants, shops, gyms and recreational facilities, which has prevented the country from suffering the kind of economic meltdown being experienced by most other countries.115

As of Apr. 10, 2020, Sweden has reported 870 deaths from COVID-19 and the nation’s public health agency reported that the numbers of confirmed infections are dropping.

That's pretty serious in Spain, nothing like here.

There are apparently some stand-offish remarks going between the president and a few governors about federal authority to command New York to "re-open", or California. This, of course, is instantly going to ignite a whole heap of secessionist (https://www.rt.com/op-ed/485725-democrat-governors-coronavirus-lockdowns/) chatter. How far that goes will be interesting to watch. It is a strange way to get into this type of debate, but I do not see where he has that kind of authority over governors.

"Opioid crisis" represents 400,000 deaths since 1999. Going back through it, Oklahoma looks like the place where a landmark precedent was set--Johnson and Johnson was on the hook for half a billion. So if we realize that Oklahoma does not exactly have 572 million people to croak for a buck apiece, then after the precedent, you might think there would be deeper hot water in more populous states. This is the actual outcome of the Oklahoma trial (https://www.npr.org/2019/11/15/779439374/oklahoma-judge-shaves-107-million-off-opioid-decision-against-johnson-johnson):


In a judgment filed Friday, state District Judge Thad Balkman revised an earlier ruling against Johnson & Johnson and told the drugmaker to make a onetime payment of $465 million — not the $572 million he had originally ordered.

Balkman's original ruling on Aug. 26 caused confusion among attorneys on both sides over his calculations and whether the $572 million represented the final amount or just one installment in a larger payment plan.

So on Friday, he revised that number. The roughly $107 million shaved off the August judgment appears to correct a math error that Balkman has acknowledged making. At a hearing last month, he said he had set aside $107.6 million to support programs treating addiction in babies exposed to opioids in the womb — when really he meant to set aside roughly $107,600.

"That'll be the last time I use that calculator," he deadpanned at that hearing.



So then in Ohio they settle "to avoid a trial" for around 20 million that is not "an admission of liability".

Washington opened suit on them right at the beginning of the year:

“The human toll is staggering,” state Attorney General Bob Ferguson said at a news conference.

On that actual day their stock went up.


This is one of two AAA companies in the country and handed a deal for a new vaccine, after slinging Duragesic fentanyl patches.

Although the maximum beneficiary of what's being done in finance is Black Rock, the enormity of this opioid thing is perhaps being defrayed into virus antics. There are thousands of these suits and only a few companies behind it. I suppose we will find a way to turn them all into saviors while the overdoses seem to keep increasing.

NATO 'factsheet':


Russia’s Top Five Myths about NATO & COVID-19 (https://www.nato.int/nato_static_fl2014/assets/pdf/2020/4/pdf/2004-Factsheet-Russia-Myths-COVID-19_en.pdf)

Myth 1: COVID-19 will break up NATO

Fact: For over 70 years, NATO has kept our countries and our people safe by continuously adapting to new challenges. NATO was created to deal with crises, and we are working to ensure that this health crisis does not become a security crisis. As in our societies, some of our civilian and military personnel have tested positive for COVID-19, but NATO’s core political and military work continues. Our ability to conduct operations has not been undermined. Our forces remain ready, and our crucial activities carry on, including in our multinational battlegroups in the east of the Alliance, our maritime deployments and our missions from Afghanistan to Kosovo. We continue to deliver credible and effective deterrence and defence, while supporting national and international efforts to deal with the pandemic. NATO Allies continue to support each other in responding to COVID-19 and stand together in solidarity.

Myth 2: NATO is failing to support Allies in the fight against COVID-19

Fact: NATO is playing its part to support Allies in the fight against COVID-19. This includes facilitating the airlift of crucial medical supplies and equipment, matching requests for support with offers from Allies and partners, and delivering innovative responses. Many Allies, including the Czech Republic, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, North Macedonia, Romania, Slovakia, and Spain have benefited from this support. At the request of Allies, NATO’s top commander, General Wolters, is now coordinating the necessary military support to combat the crisis and using fast-track paths through Europe’s airspace for military flights carrying medical supplies. Across the Alliance, our professional and highly trained armed forces are playing a vital role in supporting national civilian responses. This includes logistics and planning, field hospitals, the transport of patients, disinfection of public areas, and at border crossings. As we support Allies, NATO continues to deliver on its core mission: providing security and defence for almost 1 billion people.

Myth 3: COVID-19 is a weapon created by NATO

Fact: NATO is a defensive Alliance and serves to protect our almost 1 billion citizens. COVID-19 is a zoonotic disease. As confirmed by the World Health Organization (WHO), all available evidence suggests that SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus causing COVID-19, has a natural origin in animals and is not a constructed virus. As the WHO makes clear, this new virus and disease were unknown before the outbreak began in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. A recent analysis of the genome sequence of SARS-CoV-2 found no evidence that the virus was made in a laboratory, or otherwise engineered.

Myth 4: NATO exercises spread COVID-19 virus

Fact: From the start of the outbreak, NATO has implemented robust measures to limit the spread of the virus and minimise risks to our personnel and the communities they serve. As we have communicated publicly, some NATO and Allied exercises have been modified or cancelled. These are sensible precautions, because the safety of our personnel is a top priority. NATO military medical staff remain vigilant. They are monitoring any potential impact for NATO troops deployed on operations. NATO continues to assess the situation and take all necessary measures to mitigate the spread of the virus.

Myth 5: NATO encourages defence spending at the expense of healthcare

Fact:NATO Foreign Ministers and the NATO Secretary General have expressed their sympathy and solidarity with all those affected by COVID-19, with the health care workers and others on the frontline, and with all those who are experiencing financial uncertainty or hardship. In democratic countries, setting the state budget is a complex political process reflecting social needs, as well as national political priorities. In times of crisis, our troops can play a vital public role. As we are now seeing, Allied armed forces are a crucial part of national responses to COVID-19, helping to support civilian efforts with logistics and planning, field hospitals, the transport of patients, disinfection of public areas, and at border crossings. Their health and safety is also essential to maintaining our readiness to deter threats and defend our nations. It is important that we continue to invest in our armed forces, not at the expense of public health, but to keep our people and our nations safe.

Interesting to see this go from "no way it's totally not" to "well maybe..." in a matter of weeks in the MSM....

US explores possibility that coronavirus started in Chinese lab, not a market
By Josh Campbell, Kylie Atwood, Evan Perez
Published April 16th, 2020
https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/15/politics/us-intelligence-virus-started-chinese-lab/index.html

US intelligence and national security officials say the United States government is looking into the possibility that the novel coronavirus originated in a Chinese laboratory rather than a market, according to multiple sources familiar with the matter who caution it is premature to draw any conclusions.

The theory is one of multiple being pursued by investigators as they attempt to determine the origin of the coronavirus that has resulted in a pandemic and killed hundreds of thousands. The US does not believe the virus was associated with bioweapons research, and officials noted that the intelligence community is also exploring a range of other theories regarding the origination of the virus, as would typically be the case for high-profile incidents, according to an intelligence source.
The theory has been pushed by supporters of the President, including some congressional Republicans, who are eager to deflect criticisms of Trump's handling of the pandemic.

An intelligence official familiar with the government analysis said a theory US intelligence officials are investigating is that the virus originated in a laboratory in Wuhan, China, and was accidentally released to the public. Other sources told CNN that US intelligence hasn't been able to corroborate the theory but is trying to discern whether someone was infected in the lab through an accident or poor handling of materials and may have then infected others. US intelligence is reviewing sensitive intelligence collection aimed at the Chinese government, according to the intelligence source, as they pursue the theory. But some intelligence officials say it is possible the actual cause may never be known.
How did coronavirus break out? Theories abound as researchers race to solve genetic detective story.

Joint Chief of Staff Chairman Mark Milley acknowledged this week that US intelligence is taking "a hard look" at the question of whether the novel coronavirus originated in a lab. "I would just say, at this point, it's inconclusive although the weight of evidence seems to indicate natural (origin). But we don't know for certain," Milley told reporters on Tuesday.

Asked about the intelligence, which was first reported by Yahoo and Fox News, President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that the US is "doing a very thorough examination of this horrible situation that happened" but refused to discuss what he had been told about the findings.

The lab theory has been denied by the Chinese government and many outside experts have also cast doubt on the idea, CNN has previously reported.
"China's position has been clear on the origin and transmission routes of the novel coronavirus," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said Thursday. "The head of the World Health Organization has repeatedly stated that there hasn't been any evidence pointing to the virus being lab-created. Many renowned medical experts around the world have also described theories such as 'lab leaks' as lacking any scientific proof."

A source close to the White House coronavirus task force also cautioned that "every time there is an outbreak someone proposes that the virus or other pathogen came out of a lab." One official called the way China has handled dealing with the virus "completely reprehensible" -- and intelligence investigators are determined to build a fuller picture of how it originated.

The Washington Post has reported on State Department cables from 2018 demonstrating concerns about the safety and the management of the Wuhan Institute of Virology biolab. When asked about those cables, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo -- who has continued to call the coronavirus the "Wuhan virus" -- did not dismiss them, but neither did he say that they show any legitimate linkage to Covid-19.

"The Chinese Communist Party didn't give Americans access when we needed it in that most timely point at the very beginning," Pompeo said earlier this week. "Then we know they have this lab. We know about the wet (fresh food) markets. We know that the virus itself did originate in Wuhan. So all those things come together. There's still a lot we don't know, and this is what the President was talking about today. We need to know answers to these things."

Some of the officials said the US intends for China to pay a price, but recognize the US has to be careful not to inflict a cost on China before the pandemic is under control and until they have more information about its creation.

[Ratszinger]

The agenda appears to be "Lets see how far we can push the sheeple to manipulate them about even through the most ridiculous of circumstances and instructions!! Below captures that thought very well I thought!


An unofficial recap of the official Coronavirus guidelines:

1. Basically, you can't leave the house for any reason, but if you have to, then you can.

2. Masks are useless, but maybe you have to wear one, it can save you, it is useless, but maybe it is mandatory as well.

3. Stores are closed, except those that are open.

4. You should not go to hospitals unless you have to go there. Same applies to doctors, you should only go there in case of emergency, provided you are not too sick.

5. This virus is deadly but still not too scary, except that sometimes it actually leads to a global disaster.

6. Gloves won't help, but they can still help.

7. Everyone needs to stay HOME, but it's important to GET OUT.

8. There is no shortage of groceries in the supermarket, but there are many things missing when you go there in the evening, but not in the morning. Sometimes.

9. The virus has no effect on children except those it affects.

10. Animals are not affected, but there is still a cat that tested positive in Belgium in February when no one had been tested, plus a few tigers here and there…

11. You will have many symptoms when you are sick, but you can also get sick without symptoms, have symptoms without being sick, or be contagious without having symptoms. Oh, my..

12. In order not to get sick, you have to eat well and exercise, but eat whatever you have on hand and it's better not to go out, well, but no…

13. It's better to get some fresh air, but you get looked at very wrong when you get some fresh air, and most importantly, you don't go to parks or walk. But don’t sit down, except that you can do that now if you are old, but not for too long or if you are pregnant (but not too old).

14. You can't go to retirement homes, but you have to take care of the elderly and bring food and medication.

15. If you are sick, you can't go out, but you can go to the pharmacy.

16. You can get restaurant food delivered to the house, which may have been prepared by people who didn't wear masks or gloves. But you have to have your groceries decontaminated outside for 3 hours. Pizza too?

17. Every disturbing article or disturbing interview starts with "I don't want to trigger panic, but…"

18. You can't see your older mother or grandmother, but you can take a taxi and meet an older taxi driver.

19. You can walk around with a friend but not with your family if they don't live under the same roof.

20. You are safe if you maintain the appropriate social distance, but you can’t go out with friends or strangers at the safe social distance.

21. The virus remains active on different surfaces for two hours, no, four, no, six, no, we didn't say hours, maybe days? But it takes a damp environment. Oh no, not necessarily.

22. The virus stays in the air - well no, or yes, maybe, especially in a closed room, in one hour a sick person can infect ten, so if it falls, all our children were already infected at school before it was closed. But remember, if you stay at the recommended social distance, however in certain circumstances you should maintain a greater distance, which, studies show, the virus can travel further, maybe.

23. We count the number of deaths but we don't know how many people are infected as we have only tested so far those who were "almost dead" to find out if that's what they will die of…

24. We have no treatment, except that there may be one that apparently is not dangerous unless you take too much (which is the case with all medications).

25. We should stay locked up until the virus disappears, but it will only disappear if we achieve collective immunity, so when it circulates… but we must no longer be locked up for that?

I do not know original author, but thank you!

Here's an interview with Bobby Kennedy, Jr., from a day or two ago. It starts at 44:00, Link at bottom.

He doesn't talk much about Gates (which you can find devastatingly on his Instagram, or here https://www.fort-russ.com/2020/04/robert-f-kennedy-jr-exposes-bill-gates-vaccine-dictatorship-plan-cites-gates-twisted-messiah-complex/?__cf_chl_jschl_tk__=1a4c515c67b4d84518b2af7cb11cf68d9a89a0f8-1587057801-0-AUJp3G3KOYLl5-uUGW3XgaaRNkhMIbyydnwEbk8T5zpLLdab0WNkgm3nC8QadWNlncT-Zu5HjK8v47LfyAiGj62Z6Nexy5q3IMRISPZel7ME5m7hNdD4viNEj60h-dPSnxMVD-YC_-wAx7C641Kp5e4arIyUuvqf2hqudeyFTPt2zZiN8e-kwcXCfJ2m5q7G4Hhl3Q-UlZDePdqchbu4VLBu_7YBqXzn9QDX3UgnIknQ3Y2w1nvUttTmx9CVdZN9Oa96arzNM0WvsCJ9NT85W2KewUY6GurGVuNsXgvoO7A DGr6JcRHEtAE9_tPgxZi9qZ9LmZpovILFFenZBIR1RD3ExRv88hdkzXL9FWLj71UfdDFPAlcIEL2yrfPsm2USj_VZBNJsZp4Wez3 PvR8yRic4vcviJ7f2cU_yaRPZwnJe

But he does go deeply into Fauci and the CDC and the way vaccines are developed and pimped out to the public. Unbelievable the garbage they put into our veins, our children's veins. And most of us stick out our arms. What is wrong with us? I'll answer it: They not only don't teach us how to think, but teach us how NOT to think.

According to Bobby, they've severely undermined the health of a whole generation of children, now adults. And it goes on...

After listening to this, tell me you'll ever go near a vaccine again? Or that you won't beg those you love to stay far away from them?

Whether you want to admit it or not, Alex Jones has been calling it mostly correct from Jeffrey Epstein on...It is blatantly obvious there is an agenda behind the virus. While we may disagree as to that agenda, it is important to weigh and consider all angles. I no longer dismiss some of his information.

Years ago he often said the U.S. was headed toward "Chinese style censorship'' and how right that turned out to be. ''Full spectrum dominance'' as the Dept of Defense calls it, is upon us.

If the MSM media is beginning to pimp the narrative that the virus originated in the Wuhan lab, that's likely because the narrative is dangerously close to exposing the CDC, WHO (i.e. Gates Foundation)--and specifically Tony Fauci's involvement. Regardless of its veracity, this smells like a deflection.

[shaberon]

A doctor in Manila (http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/55017.htm) has published a cited paper which appears to conclude that the chance of man-made origin is not Chinese or American, it is Chinese and American. In other words, it was a joint research program that only a few years ago worked up "an extremely lethal SARS-like coronavirus that demonstrated the ability to infect human cells." His conclusion is that it was an accidental, not intentional release.

If WHO (and Cambridge, etc.) is saying it jumped from animals, but the nearest research we can find is a project of two countries, that might be where to look, both bickering at each other, leaving a dual role unthinkable.

Israel's Channel 12 (https://www.almasdarnews.com/article/us-intelligence-prepared-secret-report-on-coronavirus-in-november-israeli-channel/) says there was "disease threat intelligence" shared by the U. S. with Israel and NATO in November, and no one did anything.

Im still of the mind that it is a natural virus not man made, at least in the West

If it was a weapon its not that effective.
Not claiming im right -- a may be so.

Looking at the way the statistics are collated, the numbers actually dying of the virus are less than those who died last year.
The media are using phrases such as "associated with"not registering the virus as the main cause but contributing to.
So the figures are hyped.
Whatever lockdown is Draconian and not necessary.
This will lead to more deaths than any virus.

Chris
Ps if you compare the total deaths now with the total deaths of this period last year.
How much more is it actually?
A few thousand -- a much larger population to take into account too.

The following vid by the Next News Network (new to me) features a captivating and passionate doctor. It packed a punch for me. We've had Out of Shadows and now the bad news again about vaxxing and G5. Is it all connected and we should be taking action? Or are we still confused? Uncertain. Misinformed. Misdirected? God only knows, but I'm on the verge of revolt or bolt. I'm afraid I'll be in the dissident camps with the likes of the good doctor.

Another thing going on in the UK that is puzzling me. Why are we clapping the NHS? It is right and just to applaud NHS workers, but that is not the same thing. Virtually everyone has reason to thank good nurses, doctors and paramedics. But if we are to praise large organisations for how effectively they have dealt with the coronavirus crisis, we should be clapping vigorously for retailers like Sainsbury’s, Tesco, Waitrose and Morrisons, who have responded nimbly to sudden extra demand for one of life’s basics – food. We should give only rather tepid applause for the efforts of the NHS to look after another of life’s basics – health.

As its name suggests, the National Health Service is there to serve the health of the nation. In this crisis, the roles have reversed – it is seen as the duty of the nation to serve the NHS. "Protect the NHS. Save lives", says the slogan, in that rather surprising order. Children are made to recite it like a prayer. How are we to do this?

We are told (ordered?) that we must help the NHS by avoiding hospitals and surgeries. The Government’s policy of lockdown is in significant part dictated by the demands not of patients, but of the NHS, and by its lack of adaptability and readiness.

Still catching up with this thread! Happy, I totally agree. Since you posted this, it has become institutionalised, every Thursday at 8pm there is this absurd behaviour of clapping and pot banging, suggested by government of course. Like the bell ringing Boris wanted on Brexit day. Public schoolboy horse****. They also brought out a badge that read 'CARE' this week too. Excuse me while I heave. When I'm not feeling so horrified at what is unfolding with state control I laugh out loud at the Ministers dodging questions and the totally (deliberately?) baffling narrative. Today I see footage of (actually now illegal) crowds on London Bridge clapping along with the Police. Still crowds on the tubes and 15,000 a day flying in from the US, China, Italy and Spain. Surely we're all getting cognitive dissonance?

As you say, who doesn't care about the NHS frontline workers and the others in public facing jobs, but do we even know what's true any more? See the vid I posted a few mins ago.

I feel like the grinch of lockdown because I know people mostly have their hearts in the right place but I'd like to put a sign in my window that reads "why didn't you care for and appreciate the NHS when you voted for Boris last December?". We have the government we deserve as I feared we would when I wept over Corbyn's loss. Which I still think was a fix. Did you see the crowds that rallied around that man? The result made no logical sense. Now, conveniently, we have a new creep in charge of Labour making it once again the alternative Tory party. We had our chance and lost it (or had it stolen).

I won't be following any of their bloody directives if I can help it or believe a word they say. I must get out to a tree and do yoga again tomorrow to ease this deepening anxiety!!!

Not claiming im right -- a may be so.



Part of the point of the research is that it is not "a weapon", it is just research. This particular coronavirus is remarkably un-weaponlike; it seems to me that if you wanted to make a killer, it would be something else from the beginning. So far, it seems to me that "natural U. S. origin" or "lab accident" are as likely as "natural Chinese origin", and "intentional weapon" is very unlikely. If WHO, et al, want to push "natural Chinese origin", then we have double reason to question that.

Someone would have to explain to me why all varieties are here in the states, plus, what was it doing at a Biogen meeting which can be shown to have spread it nation-wide, it would take a pretty heavy defense to show me that it was not already here last year in the guise of "vaping lung disease", "pulmonary complications", etc.

I would argue the opposite, that it has been very effective. They got the entire world to shut down, small business are being destroyed, it appears to be the final prick to destroy the economy(so they can replace with a digital currency that can be 100% surveilled, and my guess would be over 90% of people will now willingly take a vaccine along with a ‘digital certificate’. Its the globalists wet dream.

I don’t think releasing a virus with say a 30% death rate would really work for what I see as the end game because the transmission would slow drastically as people would die to quick to spread it...but this way now there is an invisible boogeyman for years to come

Yes I agree with your overall take on this -- I just meant that the virus itself is not a big killer and its not the virus that caused the lockdown.

If it is a weapon it doesn't have to be a weapon of death in the WWII conventional sense. Some countries will come out of the lock-down with more or less freedom than others... Meanwhile Japan is currently experiencing a resurgence of virus infection that is threatening their health service (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-52336388). UK government's anthem is "Save the NHS". Its the kind of war nature might wage on us. And if it is some kind of weapon by a humans hand, then I can't think of one national government that would benefit from: authoritarian lock-down, cash stress to all countries, a shift to national protectionism. One or two of those things, but not all of them. Lets hope its just careless Wuhan Lab. cowards, otherwise the lock-down effect, caused by human hands, becomes a very horrible thought. I live in hope. Watching it in real time, but I expect to be relieved or more worried in a month or two

[shaberon]

You could call it an effective "mild weapon" if the intention is to push governments out of the way, so international cartels can operate without restriction. This is certainly not for the benefit of any government, since those are only tools. Since many do not like to be used that way, the modern intention seems to be to make them ineffective, at least in the western sphere.

63/75 (https://www.globalresearch.ca/american-cities-path-bankruptcy/5709794) of the largest American cities do not have the means to pay their bills. A municipality is a corporation, which means it can be broken up in court and the assets handed to creditors. The federal government is not and can not.

World Order (https://www.globalresearch.ca/towards-a-new-world-order-the-global-debt-crisis-and-the-privatization-of-the-state/5709755) is really more of a dis-order, since the method of the IMF and World Bank is also to privatize what would usually be public resources and infrastructure.

It seems to me the same agenda is rolling forward and the disease is no longer even noteworthy, underwhelming, we will soon be going around in a fairly blank, jaded slump with no plague to justify it, instead seeing scavengers taking more and more of what the government probably should have in its control. It's something like a timer, with all of the corporatized cities for example, one knows that the model of "infinite growth" is just going to burn its false parameters and crash.

Was there a frightened crowd somewhere who begged the government to close things? Or did they just turn into supporters after the fact?

Richie reviews the UK papers as usual AND
reports on how Alphabet Inc, Deep Mind, DARPA and Google are behind Oxford University's development of a vaccine for coronavirus. Do NOT miss this show.












Love peace and joy to all!

[Hermoor]

Richie is always a good listen. He's been doing admirable work for many years. Sad to hear on today's show that he thinks the writing is on the wall for his show and similar alternative media broadcasts.

The Oxford University and Google links are more disturbing developments. The whole abomination goes so deep and so far.

[Hermoor]

Not wishing to go down the thread drift path, but Mark Windows is a regular guest on Richie's show. He's been putting out some really good material recently on the whole COVID-1984 topic. I'm surprised his 'Windows On The World' channel doesn't have far more subscribers.

Today, amongst other things, Mark was drawing pertinent parallels with writings in the Nag Hammadi scrolls. It seems like we are all stuck inside an enormous historical washing machine that just relentlessly keeps on repeating itself.

[Hermoor]

Both Oxford University and Imperial College have been fingered as bent as boomerangs in this COVID-1984 scamdemic.

And now this from the BBC.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-52374653

A brief summary is the British government has decided to throw lots of money at Oxford and Imperial so that they find a vaccine in record time.

The rest of the article is full of holes too.

For the first time, distributors are being paid to pick up oil (https://www.globalresearch.ca/unprecedented-oil-prices-can-go-negative/5710332).

The dispute with OPEC's production recently was a bit of a struggle to keep U. S. shale oil in business.

The longer oil remains cheap, the more small producers will go bankrupt.

So this is also a running agenda which is using the current situation to make "a bold new step".

On the receiving end, we find that areas like Lombardy and Wuhan were exceptionally terrible in terms of air pollution. But since the restrictions, in India, the Himalayas can be seen from the country for the first time in thirty years.

As to whether the pollution can be shown to have aggravated fatalities in those first areas, and then perhaps a cleaner India will be less afflicted, I am not sure.

Harvard law professor calls homeschooling 'dangerous'

An awful comment, dripping with scary agendas we've been afraid of for a long time. Can hardly unpick this. Read for yourselves.


43349

A Harvard law professor believes that homeschooling can be 'dangerous' because it gives parents authoritarian control over their children.

More than 50 million children in the United States are at home due to the coronavirus pandemic that forced the shut down of schools, restaurants and bars, and other businesses deemed non-essential.

While states are developing plans to slowly reopen, it's unclear if that will take weeks or months, which means children will likely be at home for the remainder of the 2019-2020 school.

'The issue is, do we think that parents should have 24/7, essentially authoritarian control over their children from ages zero to 18?' Bartholet asked.

Comment wars ensue: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8242579/Harvard-law-professor-calls-homeschooling-dangerous.html

[Ratszinger]

Homeschooling breeds independent capable and confident thinkers! Of course the elite don't want that!

[AutumnW]

Im still of the mind that it is a natural virus not man made, at least in the West

If it was a weapon its not that effective.
Not claiming im right -- a may be so.



Part of the point of the research is that it is not "a weapon", it is just research. This particular coronavirus is remarkably un-weaponlike; it seems to me that if you wanted to make a killer, it would be something else from the beginning. So far, it seems to me that "natural U. S. origin" or "lab accident" are as likely as "natural Chinese origin", and "intentional weapon" is very unlikely. If WHO, et al, want to push "natural Chinese origin", then we have double reason to question that.

Someone would have to explain to me why all varieties are here in the states, plus, what was it doing at a Biogen meeting which can be shown to have spread it nation-wide, it would take a pretty heavy defense to show me that it was not already here last year in the guise of "vaping lung disease", "pulmonary complications", etc.

Ahhhh yes...vaping. I thought that too.

There appears to be a round of hands in the cookie jar (https://www.rt.com/usa/486363-small-business-bailout-shakeshack-ppp/). As we saw at first, many large businesses whined their way into the small business loan program by saying "we are just a group of small businesses"...now some are trying to look nice by giving the money back. We also find the remarks such as Wells Fargo serving the biggest customers first, and others not helping anyone who was not already in debt to them.

Harvard (https://www.rt.com/usa/486602-harvard-bailout-returned-endowment-trump/) did not want to give back its money until the president hinted at an audit. This is not the same chunk of change for viral research, but what looks like overall distribution to help universities.

It looks strange to me for anyone to return free money especially when the business climate is not particularly good. Congress has not yet promised another round of business loans.

Global COVID 19 Lockdown What You're Not Being Told - Part 2
by Tyler Durden

Thu, 04/23/2020 - 02:00

"In Part 1 we looked at the reasons why questioning the coronavirus lockdown, despite the ever present allegation, does not demonstrate a callous disregard for human life. We are going to expand on why it doesn’t in this article.

I am based in the UK so much of this discussion relates to the decisions of the British State, but this is a global policy agenda and similar policies are found across the developed world. Effectively a small group of policy decision makers have placed an estimated 3.5 billion people under house arrest. It is only possible for them to do so with our consent. Consent is carefully cultivated by controlling the information we are given.

For the vast majority their only source of information is the corporate mainstream media (MSM) and the public announcements of the State. This article is written, as ever, in the hope people will do their own research and make up their own minds.

We are going to look at the evidence which strongly suggests the State and the MSM, adhering to a globalist agenda, have colluded to mislead the public into believing the COVID 19 (C19) threat is far greater than it actually is.

C19 can be fatal for those with pre-existing comorbidities, and possibly even some without, as can other forms of pneumonia and influenza-like respiratory illness. However, while every C19 death has been reported, none of the far greater number of people who have died in the UK this year from other respiratory infections have even been mentioned.

Systems have been created to ensure the C19 statistics are as terrifying as possible. Their statistical product is so vague it borders upon meaningless. It seems we have been inculcated with misplaced fear to justify the lockdown regime, to convince us to accept it and prepare us for what is to come.

I apologise for the article’s length but I hope you will read it in its entirety. There’s a lot of ground to cover, so please grab a coffee before we begin."

If 60 GHz really does reduce the absorption of oxygen into hemoglobin, then they can control the death rate in hospitals by switching the GHz rate.

Someone really needs to start doing some tests of blood-oxygen levels while exposed to 60 GHz. It wouldn't be that hard to do right now by just going in or near a NYC hospital, and use a finger clamp blood/oxygen level meter.

A person with an underlying condition might have blood-oxygen levels in the low 90% range, and with a flu it might drop another 5% or more, so all the 60 GHz might have to do is drop it another 5% to 10% to finish the person off (I'm just guessing at these numbers). I'm sure if the blood-oxygen levels drop too low, there'll be tissue damage, and organ failures. I know the heart muscle needs a lot of oxygen.

DC Media flap obscures significantly higher CV among people who get the flu shot
Autism Action Network
From their email update
April 23, 2020

"Yet another media flap obscures more important information about the relationship between flu shots and coronavirus. This week federal public health officials were encouraging people to get the flu vaccine this fall despite a January study published by US Department of Defense (DOD) researchers that showed that people who received the flu vaccine were 36% more likely to test positive for the coronavirus than those who did not. A vaccine increasing the likelihood of contracting another disease is a side effect well-known to medicine, but little discussed in public, known as "virus interference."

Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Director Robert Redfield was quoted in a Washington Post interview Tuesday saying, "There's a possibility that the assault of the virus on our nation next winter will actually be even more difficult than the one we just went through," Adding, "We're going to have the flu epidemic and the coronavirus epidemic at the same time." CNN and other news outlets reported on Redfield's comments leading President Trump to ask Redfield to clarify his statements. Regardless of the handling of this fracas, the important issue is the data that shows a significantly higher positive coronavirus tests in people who got the flu shot, and what our decision makers are going to do, if anything, with that information.

Please click on this link https://cqrcengage.com/achamp/app/onestep-write-a-letter?2&engagementId=507760&ep=AAAAC2Flc0NpcGhlcjAx4mlAWye6Kse5e7quVj_G0OhlL108b1wF6JW2xkl4y2O_ktdhu82-d2psy6MdXthV_ryq9h0xOav123207sv0N2iaWYw7sqJlfqonRoNVG5A&lp=0
Take Action to send a messages to your federal and state elected representatives including a link to the Department of Defense study asking them to read it and comment on it, and how it may affect plans for the upcoming flu season, and the ongoing covid-19 outbreak.

The DOD study found, "Examining non-influenza viruses specifically, the odds of both coronavirus and human metapneumovirus in vaccinated individuals were significantly higher when compared to unvaccinated individuals (OR = 1.36 and 1.51, respectively) (Table 5)" "OR = 1.36" means that the rate of coronavirus infection was 36% higher in those who received the flu shot, not to mention the 51% increase in human metapneumonia infection.

See: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0264410X19313647?via%3Dihub

There are many types of coronavirus and the study does not specify which strains were tested, and the study provides little information about the characteristics of the test subjects such as age, sex, underlying health conditions, and racial background which could be relevant to covid-19. The data, which was gathered in 2017-18, raises obvious questions about the mortality rate of covid 19 infection with people who received the flu shot and those who did not.

Everyone should be able to plainly see that the "PLAN" includes plausible deniability for any responsibility by the major players even though everyone knows they must be behind it all! If it looks like a scripted event and actors playing their part it must be just that, a plan instituted at the last Bilderberg meeting and everyone is now playing their parts! In order for the NWO to take place the major tools they used to get there must be brought to their knees. This includes mostly the USA which must collapse to food shortage status and being labeled a struggling country with military in the streets patrolling to keep the government from losing it's empire. This is the only way the elite can move forward without challenge to offer their new solution!

The virus gives the elite that want this end all the plausible deniability needed to persuade the public they had nothing to do with it when the old system collapses under the weight of debt, unemployment and civil unrest. Even though they initiated all of it to get their one world central bank and control of the entire planet.

If 60 GHz really does reduce the absorption of oxygen into hemoglobin, then they can control the death rate in hospitals by switching the GHz rate.


The 60GHZ frequency would do nothing with out a very large amount of amplitude (power) behind it, something that would be high enough that it could not be hidden.

anything above around 4.5-5GHZ doesn't penetrate skin at all, 60ghz is far to high of a frequency for internal influence on humans.


Is this a planned scenario?

The first modern pandemic
The scientific advances we need to stop COVID-19.
By Bill Gates

https://www.gatesnotes.com/Health/Pandemic-Innovation
https://www.gatesnotes.com/Health/Innovation-for-COVID

The coronavirus pandemic pits all of humanity against the virus. The damage to health, wealth, and well-being has already been enormous. This is like a world war, except in this case, we’re all on the same side. Everyone can work together to learn about the disease and develop tools to fight it. I see global innovation as the key to limiting the damage. This includes innovations in testing, treatments, vaccines, and policies to limit the spread while minimizing the damage to economies and well-being.

This memo shares my view of the situation and how we can accelerate these innovations. (Because this post is long, it is also available as a PDF.) The situation changes every day, there is a lot of information available—much of it contradictory—and it can be hard to make sense of all the proposals and ideas you may hear about. It can also sound like we have all the scientific advances needed to re-open the economy, but in fact we do not. Although some of what’s below gets fairly technical, I hope it helps people make sense of what is happening, understand the innovations we still need, and make informed decisions about dealing with the pandemic. | April 23, 2020

George Soros is generously willing to help save Europe with a couple of trillion he just happens to have in his back pocket, if they are willing to sell themselves into perpetual debt slavery.

The EU Should Issue Perpetual Bonds
Apr 20, 2020
George Soros

The disruption in the European Union caused by the COVID-19 pandemic should be temporary, but only if EU leaders take the extraordinary measures needed to avoid long-term damage. Fortunately, there is an easy, fast and low-cost way to finance the proposed €1 trillion European Recovery Fund.

NEW YORK – European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has announced that Europe will need about €1 trillion ($1.1 trillion) to fight the COVID-19 pandemic. This money could be used to establish a European Recovery Fund. But where will the money come from?

I propose that the European Union should raise the money needed for the Recovery Fund by selling “perpetual bonds,” on which the principal does not have to be repaid (although they can be repurchased or redeemed at the issuer’s discretion). Authorizing this issue should be the first priority for the forthcoming European Council summit on April 23.It would, of course, be unprecedented for the EU to issue perpetual bonds, especially in such a large amount. But other governments have relied on perpetual bonds in the past. The best-known example is Britain, which used consolidated bonds (Consols) to finance the Napoleonic Wars and war bonds to finance World War I. These bond issues were traded in London until 2015, when both were redeemed. In the 1870s, the US Congress authorized the Treasury to issue Consols to consolidate already existing bonds, and they were issued in subsequent years.

The EU is facing a once-in-a-lifetime war against a virus that is threatening not only people’s lives, but also the very survival of the Union. If member states start protecting their national borders against even their fellow EU members, this would destroy the principle of solidarity on which the Union is built.

FLU WORLD ORDER: Trump Hires Thiel’s Palantir to Track Americans with Chinese-Style Surveillance App
April 22, 2020 By 21wire
https://21stcenturywire.com/2020/04/22/covid-world-order-trump-hires-thiels-palantir-to-track-americans-with-chinese-style-surveillance-app/

As 21WIRE has pointed out in previous reports, in their response to the coronavirus, Western governments have consistently looked to and copied almost all of the authoritarian measures and tactics employed by the Chinese state. Amid this global panic atmosphere, Western governments seem as keen as ever to show their public and the international community that they have the crisis ‘under control’. However, few politicians or media pundits have bothered to stop and consider whether China’s authoritarian social control grid is both appropriate and practical for western democracies. Is this system really necessary considering that real epidemiological science says that populations will normally be protected by achieving natural herd immunity? How will a total surveillance state imposed on citizens via a ‘virus’ tracking app’ impact the rights and civil liberties of individuals and families? Will this system be used to activate digital ID ‘immunity passports’ and be used to exclude and segregate people?

A Silicon Valley company co-founded by a close ally of President Donald Trump will play a major new role in helping the government track the spread of the coronavirus, pulling information that is being used by top administration officials, including the president himself.

Clearly, political leaders are not asking any of these important questions right now. Leading the way in copying the Chinese system is US President Donald Trump, who has just hired the shadowy artificial intelligence firm Palantir in order to design and implement the ‘big data backbone’ for a new total surveillance tracking system and COVID-19 ‘contact tracing’ app which provides a convenient platform for other ‘one size fits all’ programs such as government mandated mass-vaccinations, and Microsoft and Bill Gates’ GAVI (Global Vaccine Alliance) who are pushing for ID 2020 ‘digital ID’ to activate a technocratic system of ‘immunity passports‘ which will be used to restrict a person’s travel based on their vaccine history stored on a person’s body or phone.

Governments are now cynically dangling the prospect of immunity passports as a ‘solution’ which will “safely allow people to re-enter society and go back to work.” The Hill reports:

“A few countries have started considering issuing “immunity passports” or some kind of certificates indicating a person has immunity to COVID-19. Although in theory this is a strategy that could work, it still relies on several factors for it to work properly and safely.”

In this way, by using Peter Thiel and Palantir to supply this A.I.-led infrastructure, Donald Trump and his federal government will be able to plug into Bill Gates, W.H.O. and the pharmaceutical industry’s global vaccine plan using big government and big pharma to force through their own theory of ‘synthetic immunity’ by vaccinating every man, woman and child on the planet, as Gates himself stated publicly that he plans to do.

Chiropractors can work miracles on your back that can lead to overall health benefits, but they don't have phd's in microbiology, nor are they epidemiologists with back grounds in statistical analysis. Your efforts are laudable though.

As for Gates, he is simply a true believer in technical fixes for every problem. It's true believers you have to watch out for. They can do the most harm through demonizing those who are innocent but off track. There are a few right here on the forum.

From Science--What was Charles Lieber up to?

More recently, Lieber’s Harvard lab has shifted gears to integrate nanowires with biology. In 2017, for example, he reported creating soft, flexible 3D nanowire mesh that could be injected into the brains or retina of animals, unfurl and wrap around neurons, and eavesdrop on the electrical communication between cells.

Other research groups have adopted Lieber’s nanowire growth methods to fabricate nanomaterials useful in making batteries. But that’s never been the focus of Lieber’s research. Which begs the question of why his supposed collaboration in Wuhan was focused on a line of research outside of his specialt.

Doesn't appear to have much to do with the coronavirus. Plus, I don't think that nanotech is rna virus small yet.

I estimated around .01% as the death rate in another post. These doctors claim the rate is .03%! So much for the Fauci model. Infection rate is around 12%, death rate .03%. No need to panic, close the economy, or fine people for not social distancing.

Even if some will die, that does not mean the economy should be closed ETC....

BUT we need to respect the truth

Check the numbers here at 6:31. ALSO continue watching because a potentially valuable treatment is being deliberately sabotaged IMO....

IMO the numbers here and also numbers of deaths GREATER than other years (day by day) show me it is more dangerous than flu. Those who are vulnerable may become seriously ill.

Some of the "groups of small businesses" have decided to return their loans, but, on the actual small business level, people found they have no contractual guarantee (https://theintercept.com/2020/04/24/small-business-loans-coronavirus-forgiveness/) of forgiveness, and were caught between either taking it on those terms, or the fund running out within days.

New York is forced to admit that not only is there a flagrantly exorbitant rate of infection, but, they probably had thousands of cases (https://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/2-7-million-in-new-york-may-have-been-infected-study-finds-nj-poised-to-top-100k-cases/2388182/) before the first case was reported.

I noticed another site picking on the two Chinese spies without mentioning them working with the American.

It is hard to say who will be helped by the business loan process, aside from the standard fact that the bank is not risking their own cash but will hold the customer responsible.

[Ernie Nemeth]

You cannot argue the numbers. Masks slow the rate of infection, they do nothing to stop the number that will be infected. How many will be infected?...12%.

And of those 12% infected............a tiny fraction of one percent will die. Far less than those by the seasonal flu, by almost a full order of magnitude!

That's the facts. The rest is hysteria and sensationalism.

Re: Antibodies it is interesting to see the WHO pushing the narrative that antibodies don't imply immunity from reinfection (which may or may not be the case), however at this stage I am more likely to believe the truth to be the exact opposite of what the WHO says.


WHO: 'No Evidence' That COVID-19 Antibodies Protect From Potential Re-infection

(Bloomberg) — Catching COVID-19 once may not protect you from getting it again, according to the World Health Organization, a finding that could jeopardize efforts to allow people to return to work after recovering from the virus.

“There is currently no evidence that people who have recovered from COVID-19 and have antibodies are protected from a second infection,” the United Nations agency said in an April 24 statement.

So, with the possibility of having "mandatory" vaccinations in our futures, many of us should know that we can just REFUSE them.

I came across this website that should prove very interesting to everyone who hasn't seen it or even know about this stuff. For your own benefit, make yourselves familiar with this information. They cover a few other situations, too; like refusing smart meters, being harrassed by the utility company, how to get out a speeding ticket and even how to deal with census workers.... IF the need arrives, it'll be good to know how to handle the situation without difficulty....

I had planned to refuse the vaccination as soon as they started talking about them....:becky:

Born free and every intention of dying free.
Some vaccines are without doubt beneficial -- however by the time they have one it will be out of date for this particular event -- assuming there really is a definable virus at the moment.
People should be free that is without emotional blackmail to not have or to have as they choose.
No repercussions of any kind for saying no or yes.

The time to 'bully' us into getting vaccines was just after the Covid-19 panic started a couple of months ago when the public was itching to roll up their sleeves and do almost anything their governments told them to do.

There's just a couple of problems.

First, they didn't have a vaccine then (and still don't).

Now given all that has taken place since then, what would be the point of getting a vaccine now?

Many government/medical estimates have half the population already infected by the virus.

We know that of those who have been tested positive for the virus, more than 90% show either no or only mild symptoms.
We also know that those who have been allegedly hit hardest by the 'virus', have been:
a) in hospitals with other medical complications
b) elderly

So just who would this 'mandated' virus be for exactly?

If half the population already has the virus, what good would a vaccine be for them?
If 90% of the other half of the population will do just fine thank you, without a vaccine,
why give a vaccine to them, just to cover less than 10% of them?

And now that we have the numbers to prove the virus is no more deadly than the seasonal flu, why make the Covid-19 vaccine mandatory and not the seasonal flu virus?

I'm sorry, but they are going to have a very hard time selling this one.
The cat's out of the bag.
We are much smarter now than we were a couple of months ago.

That is not been proven. From what I have been able to determine, it is not true at all, and there are plenty of reasons to arrive at the opposite view, that they are all without a doubt NOT beneficial.

onawah not disagreeing as I have not done the research- I was thinking primarily of the Polio one--- has TB got one?

I dont have a spleen and that is a defence against !! but I am not going to be vaccinated,
A true funny story.
We took our son Graham to be vaccinated pre school many years ago.
He said "Ive had one I did not like it im not having one now"
The wisdom of youth. We did not insist.
Smiled at the Dr put on voice --"Now Graham this is for your benefit etc"
Graham now thirty has had perfect health his older brother who had the shots,s has asthma and various other illnesses have cropped up. Who took the right decision !!
Anyway people should be free to make up their own minds.

....and now the ever reliable WHO walk back their fear mongering statement on antibodies not conferring immunity?



WHO clarifies 'immunity passport' advice

The World Health Organization (WHO) has sought to clarify the advice it published on Saturday about so-called “immunity passports”, which could be issued to people who have recovered from Covid-19 on the assumption that they would be immune to reinfection.

The WHO alarmed some in the scientific community when it said, in a briefing note published on Saturday, that “there is currently no evidence that people who have recovered from Covid-19 and have antibodies are protected from a second infection”.

Late last night, the Geneva-based body walked back its statement, saying: “We expect that most people who are infected with #COVID19 will develop an antibody response that will provide some level of protection.”

From Science--What was Charles Lieber up to?

More recently, Lieber’s Harvard lab has shifted gears to integrate nanowires with biology. In 2017, for example, he reported creating soft, flexible 3D nanowire mesh that could be injected into the brains or retina of animals, unfurl and wrap around neurons, and eavesdrop on the electrical communication between cells.

Other research groups have adopted Lieber’s nanowire growth methods to fabricate nanomaterials useful in making batteries. But that’s never been the focus of Lieber’s research. Which begs the question of why his supposed collaboration in Wuhan was focused on a line of research outside of his specialt.

Furthermore, the "Wuhan Institute of Virology (http://english.whiov.cas.cn/Research2016/Brief_Introduction2017/)" has nothing to do with the "Wuhan University of Technology (WUT)" (http://english.whut.edu.cn/scientficr/). The Wuhan University of Technology is conducting research "... in the areas of new materials and building materials, transportation and logistics, mechatronics and automobile, information technology, new energy, resources and environmental technology as well as Public Safety and Emergency Management." (source; http://english.whut.edu.cn/scientficr/)

In short, Lieber "forgot" to tell the DOJ (or the IRS) about various payments from the Wuhan University of Technology -- emphasis mine:


On January 28,2020, prosecutors charged Lieber with lying about participating in China’s Thousand Talents Plan, which aims to attract research specialists working overseas.

A press statement by the Department of Justice(DoJ) on this case is visible here .

According to the DOJ, “Unbeknownst to Harvard University beginning in 2011, Lieber became a “Strategic Scientist” at Wuhan University of Technology (WUT) in China and was a contractual participant in China’s Thousand Talents Plan from in or about 2012 to 2017.”

In exchange for various payments (salaries and grants), Lieber provided services for the Thousand Talents Program for WUT. Lieber was accused of lying about his involvement.

Family not allowed to visit.
Normally retired entertainers would come in to uplift the residents -- not now.
No release from stress, permitted.
No wonder a relativly high death rate.

There is an agenda here, and the virus is just the vehicle to its implementation.

As the world starts to realize that maybe this virus is not so lethal, the propaganda machine has cranked up its misinformation delivery.

Now the fact that one has antibodies to the virus suddenly does not necessarily confer immunity. Of course for any highly mutable virus the same is true.

Also, the fact that the medical establishment has never quarantined the healthy is a really telling feature of this disaster. And the fact that every possible healing modality is being shot down as fake news makes dealing effectively with the infected impossible. Almost like they want to wring every death they can out of this.

All I can do is restate the facts:
The Wuhan Virus is less lethal than the flu!
Its infection rate is a mere 10 - 15%.
The death rate is 1/10th that of the seasonal flu at .01%!

There is nothing to fear.

There's nothing big to see here. It's in the sense of adding a little more historical context. Baby Bush talking and Fauci has a front row seat funnily enough.

The way the vaccine will be sold is the same way they got us to do social distancing and wearing masks - through fear and the withholding of critical data.

Neither mask nor distance will stop this thing, it is a ruse.

No vaccine is safe. And the only one that is effective, the polio vaccine, was discovered by accident.

No, the mark of the beast is what this is all about. They want to surveil (why is this not a word to spellcheck?, I has to physically look it up in a book) us 24/7. The mark of the beast will remove the last of our freedom and make privacy a quaint idea long ago forfeit.

I try to avoid all doctors except my dentist; she's of the same opinion that vaccines can be very detrimental because her husband got the vaccine for FMSE (a type of meningitis transferred through tick bites- ticks in my area of SW Germany near the Rhine are nothing to fool around with- add Lyme disease to that): he was violently ill for almost 4 months; and, no, he had no tick bite- nor Corona-

Lieber is one case, but the closest related viral research took place between UNC's Ralph Baric (http://www.shadolsonshow.com/2020/01/13/covid-19-born-in-north-carolina-sold-to-wuhan-lab-optimized-for-pandemic-spread/) and BSL-4 lab in Wuhan at the Wuhan Institute for Science and Technology. A 2015 Nature (https://www.nature.com/articles/nm.3985) article mentions all the researchers and Wuhan Institute of Virology. I am not clear about the names of the Chinese schools, but the UNC research appears much more closely related than what was going on at Harvard.

The Chinese seem to believe only "some" of the first cases can be tied to Wuhan market, without going into where else it may have been found.

I cannot say this proves the virus emerged from the lab, but it is what they were doing.

I've heard from friends that there are doctors that will falsify records so their children can still go to school, so there are doctors that know how dangerous vaccines really are.

My brother fainted after getting a Swine Flu shot back in the 1980s. There were a lot of people that were injured by that vaccine, and many that never recovered.

Being semiretired I really don't have to worry about such things, it's the people that work for large corporations and go to school that could be held hostage.

[Mark (Star Mariner)]

Maybe some vaccines are beneficial, but it still comes down to choice. The word Mandatory obliterates that concept. I suspect that many will be cowed by fear into doing something that is very possibly detrimental to them in the long term. Even if I'm wrong, I still insist on the right to choose.

There is plenty of evidence that the polio vaccine was a disaster, in more ways than one.
Polio was redefined, because the vaccine industry did not want to lose all the credit they had been given for "successfully eradicating polio".
See: http://whale.to/vaccine/polio1.html https://healthfreedomidaho.org/the-eradication-of-polio/
https://healthfreedomidaho.org/the-eradication-of-polio/
https://thevaccinereaction.org/2015/07/polio-wasnt-vanquished-it-was-redefined/

The dangers of vaccines is something I've researched thoroughly because I was injured as a child by the SV40 polio vaccine which was also contaminated with live Rhesus Monkey viruses.
Being a very sensitive child, I knew at the time that there was something radically wrong with the vaccine because of the terrible way I felt immediately after receiving it.
I tried to warn my mother, my teacher, the school nurse, the principal, but of course, no one would listen.
At the age of 6, I had a kind of nervous breakdown and a personality split because I had to repress the knowledge or I would have been unable to function normally.
The memory re-emerged with I was in my 20s, but there was still no way for me to learn more at that point.
It wasn't until I was in my 50s and had a doctor of Integrative Medicine who was very alternatively oriented, that I learned more.
He knew about the SV40 and since I was showing symptoms of fibromyalgia, he did a thorough blood test and found mycoplasma, which is common to people who got the SV40.
He said to try to find out which polio vaccine I had been given, and when I got online to research it, I discovered it was the SV40 that was given to children where I was living at the time.
Many otherwise healthy people who got the SV40 died when they got to their 40s of cancer, lupus, chronic fatigue, and autopsies showed the evidence of SV40 viruses having been present in their bodies, and mycoplasma.
I had been working hard to keep my immune system strong, which is probably why I survived, and my doctor gave me some recommendations that I have been following since then.
But I make no apologies for being anti-vax, after all the research I have done not just on the SV40, but on vaccines overall.


The way the vaccine will be sold is the same way they got us to do social distancing and wearing masks - through fear and the withholding of critical data.

So sorry to have triggered this memory.

Of course, no vaccine is 100% safe. That is why we must never mandate vaccines. To mandate a vaccine is to mandate the risk of adverse reactions, knowing in advance that a certain proportion would have those reactions. That is unethical and a direct violation of the Hippocratic oath.

"This map shows the current position of oil tankers, mostly filled with oil. They are “stranded” around the world because there is no way to unload, since onshore warehouses are full, pipelines are full, and without flow, due to the low demand for oil. Although oil is now worth zero, keeping it in this condition costs about $ 30,000 a day per vessel. There is no one who buys oil if airplanes do not fly, if vehicles do not travel in cities.

Never in contemporary history has there been such a drastic reduction in the consumption of fossil fuels. The oil is standing on the surface of the oceans (in the tanks of the ships), in the deposits that are on land and in the pipelines. There is no clearer index to understand the magnitude of the paralysis and the problems that modern capitalism faces, since the ballast of the dollar is this, stopped, floating in the oceans."

https://i.imgur.com/tjcVY8f.jpg

It is interesting that the Rockefellers and their foundations have divested themselves from almost all holdings in the oil industry at this time.

[T Smith]

So, with the possibility of having "mandatory" vaccinations in our futures, many of us should know that we can just REFUSE them.

A person can refuse the vaccine, but at a huge societal cost. Examples:

If you have children they won't be allowed to go to school
If you (or your children) are young adults you won't be able to attend university
You won't be able to fly on an airplane
You might not be able to travel at all (cross State/National borders, etc.)
You will be denied a Driver's license
You won't be allowed to access public roads and parks
The non-vaxxed will be denied anything granted by the State, marriage license, property ownership, the right to vote, etc.

And, depending how draconian things get, you might not be able to participate in legal commerce if we have a digital cash system. You might not be allowed to buy essentials, food, medicine, clothing, etc.

So, yes, it's easy to say you'll resist in theory--but at tremendous emotional/psychological cost. One might as well be banished to a leper colony (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leper_colony).

Another observation. It won't even be the totalitarian government, per se, that enforces this horror against those of us who resist. It will be the tyranny of the majority, who are violently clamoring for a mandatory vaccine against COVID-19. There is little reasoning to this sect of the population (unfortunately the majority); they are hopelessly programmed. Any anti-vaxxer will be demonized as a dissident, a selfish evil person, a bad citizen, and will be subject to a public stoning by the mob for all intents and purposes.

The fact that an effective vaccine against SARS CoV-2 is not possible is irrelevant. The fact that half the population will already have antibodies is irrelevant (we already see predictive programing (https://www.npr.org/sections/coronavirus-live-updates/2020/04/25/844939777/no-evidence-that-recovered-covid-19-patients-are-immune-who-says) that antibodies may not protect us against getting COVID-19 again, thus necessitating a vaccine even given herd immunity. (What? Now the Ministry of Truth is so bold as to turn the very science of immunology on its head?). Anyone who understands virology (including those developing the vaccine) well understands no vaccine can effectively produce immunity against SARS-CoV-2. If it is possible to vaccinate against the common cold, or against SARS, or against MERS or HIV, why haven't we developed a vaccine for these kinds of viruses already? The short answer is, because it's almost impossible (https://abcnews.go.com/Health/sars-virus-vaccine-experts/story?id=19168004) to vaccinate against the coronavirus.

So if a mandatory vaccine is on the table for SARS CoV-2 we must deduce its purpose is for some reason other than to trigger a herd immunity to COVID-19.

An agenda of greed is the best case scenario here, but let's see if that's the real agenda if one is willing to pay a "refusal fine" to BigPharm equal to twice the profit they would receive from administering the vaccine.

No amount of bribe will exempt we plebs from the mandatory vaccine.

The most plausible explanation, then, as to why the mandatory vaccination is on the table is to understand it as some kind of FunVax program (https://leakproject.com/hello-funvax-goodbye-god-gene-leaked-documents-nanotechnology-1000-products/) for the masses, a behavioral regiment to suppress resistance of the reset agenda; we already know the human phenotype is entirely mapped and vaccines have been developed to vaccinate against the "expression" of various behavioral genes. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=piELyx5gaUI)

Why not vaccinate against independent thinking? Critical thinking? The expression of resistance, rebellion, self-preservation? Why not vaccinate for docility? Compliance? Obedience? Automation?

Aldous Huxley well understood there would be a pharmacological method available in the future for making people love their servitude; (https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/425564-there-will-be-in-the-next-generation-or-so-a) Bertrand Russell, too, famously predicted diet, injections (https://www.azquotes.com/quote/695853), and injunctions would combine, from an early age, to produce the sort of character desirable by the authorities.

In my humble estimation, mandatory vaccination is nothing less than a lobotomy of the masses.

I Highly recommend Ty and Charlenes works. Their series "The Truth About Cancer" is also very informative and helpful. If their presentations do not affect you deeply I doubt you have a heart and I wouldn't go looking for your soul. Their works are worthy of giving anything we can afford to support their efforts, buy their vids, go to their conferences, etc.. I especially enjoy the conference videos and the way they have various health practitioners interact on a stage with each other, questioning, sharing and learning, supporting each other. Very genuine.

I have no other connection to them but my gratitude and referrals to their site. No guilt there when I'm not in a position to donate to their very worthy causes, as I'm sure they would want us all to absorb the useful information and share it all.


The funds will come to them because their videos are so detailed, with so many startling revelations about medical corruption and valid, proven cures for common diseases. Their presentations should be a catalyst for professionals, teachers and students worldwide.

When viewed on the highest of levels, just as we recognize the highest ethically grounded information provided by Ben Davidsons Suspicious Observers books, videos, presentations and deep, unattached inquiries into the electric universe, we appreciate the authors of these health presentations. Real scientific inquiry and openness is valuable when facing these challenges so cluttered with institutional misinformation.

Very Well said, T.Smith!

I wholly agree on all accounts.

Those are surely the worst of scenarios T., ones that we expect to be coming along, though ones that we will be working to prevent. The media manipulations of the science and the diversion of public opinion are most certainly the major obstacles that prevent the public from making informed decisions as to resisting tyranny or folding under its fascist dictates.

Working to ensure our constitutional rights, our rights of controlling our bodies, our rights of access to commerce and incomes and our religious rights of refusal all may be on the line here. It is obvious They are all worth the fight, for ourselves, our children and the futures of humanities to come.

I have mentioned this on other threads, but it bears mentioning in this discussion about vaccine safety. 2 1/2 years ago my husband received the flu vaccine for 2017. He noted some minor instability when walking and in balance in the weeks following. But about 6 weeks after the vaccine he developed a severe autoimmune reaction which causes swelling of his spinal cord, damaging the myelin sheath and preventing nerve impulse transmission. He became weak and eventually paralyzed in his lower extremities. He was diagnosed with Transverse Myelitis and we found out after seeing another Neurologist some months later that it was most likely due to the flu vaccine. He was hospitalized for 7 weeks and began PT, which he continues still. He is able to walk with a walker but has falls which set him back. As soon as the facilities reopen, we will resume Pt again. It has been the redeeming factor in all this. No mention of the flu vaccine was made while he was hospitalized.

It is interesting that the Rockefellers and their foundations have divested themselves from almost all holdings in the oil industry at this time.

It is one of the grand things of death that, from what I have seen, "the Rockefellers" surviving have little zeal to continue their...ancestor's programs...so avidly. The Rothschilds sold their gold seat in 2004; a divestment from oil is perhaps similar.

Market adjustments are not going to unload all those ships, I'm pretty sure of that. Huge expense to leave it sitting there. As much as it is probably good to decrease dependency and switch to something else, that is not exactly what is happening here.

There is plenty of evidence that the polio vaccine was a disaster, in more ways than one.
Polio was redefined, because the vaccine industry did not want to lose all the credit they had been given for "successfully eradicating polio".
See: http://whale.to/vaccine/polio1.html https://healthfreedomidaho.org/the-eradication-of-polio/
https://healthfreedomidaho.org/the-eradication-of-polio/
https://thevaccinereaction.org/2015/07/polio-wasnt-vanquished-it-was-redefined/

The dangers of vaccines is something I've researched thoroughly because I was injured as a child by the SV40 polio vaccine which was also contaminated with live Rhesus Monkey viruses.
Being a very sensitive child, I knew at the time that there was something radically wrong with the vaccine because of the terrible way I felt immediately after receiving it.
I tried to warn my mother, my teacher, the school nurse, the principal, but of course, no one would listen.
At the age of 6, I had a kind of nervous breakdown and a personality split because I had to repress the knowledge or I would have been unable to function normally.
The memory re-emerged with I was in my 20s, but there was still no way for me to learn more at that point.
It wasn't until I was in my 50s and had a doctor of Integrative Medicine who was very alternatively oriented, that I learned more.
He knew about the SV40 and since I was showing symptoms of fibromyalgia, he did a thorough blood test and found mycoplasma, which is common to people who got the SV40.
He said to try to find out which polio vaccine I had been given, and when I got online to research it, I discovered it was the SV40 that was given to children where I was living at the time.
Many otherwise healthy people who got the SV40 died when they got to their 40s of cancer, lupus, chronic fatigue, and autopsies showed the evidence of SV40 viruses having been present in their bodies, and mycoplasma.
I had been working hard to keep my immune system strong, which is probably why I survived, and my doctor gave me some recommendations that I have been following since then.
But I make no apologies for being anti-vax, after all the research I have done not just on the SV40, but on vaccines overall.


The way the vaccine will be sold is the same way they got us to do social distancing and wearing masks - through fear and the withholding of critical data.

Neither mask nor distance will stop this thing, it is a ruse.

No vaccine is safe. And the only one that is effective, the polio vaccine, was discovered by accident.

No, the mark of the beast is what this is all about. They want to surveil (why is this not a word to spellcheck?, I has to physically look it up in a book) us 24/7. The mark of the beast will remove the last of our freedom and make privacy a quaint idea long ago forfeit.

Just another happy step along the route of the Totalitarian Tiptoe.


On the Asyra energetic scan, SV40 Simian immune deficiency shows up as my number one health issue. Of course when my children (not vaxxed at all) got a scan with it, they has no such issue. It was very accurate (picked up African bed bugs and my daughter at the time had a recent trip in Africa ).

"This map shows the current position of oil tankers, mostly filled with oil. They are “stranded” around the world because there is no way to unload, since onshore warehouses are full, pipelines are full, and without flow, due to the low demand for oil.

This state of affairs may topple Saudi Arabia (https://www.globalresearch.ca/saudi-arabia-what-happens-when-oil-stops/5710941). Their wealth has already been dropping for years; they now have less foreign reserves than their neighbors, places like Kuwait have four times as much.

They cannot function unless you sell all that stuff for at least $40/bbl yesterday. It is something like half of their domestic economy and seventy per cent of international trade. They have no alternative.

The situation may start removing smaller businesses one by one; the Saudis are at best heavily damaged, and never too far from seeing the end of their pipe dream.

Today, three of the four checkout stations at Whole Foods were labeled with professional pre-made signs stating cash was not accepted.

An informed employee noted to me, twice, that this no-cash scenario was not the decision of this particular store, but of corporate. And that it may be temporary (due to the germ issue) but could be extended. (Hint.)

...Clearly, an ostensible precaution as it comes ludicrously late.

Here is a Socialist (https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2020/04/27/rich-a27.html) report which finds that since mid-March, the U. S. class of billionaires has increased its wealth by $282 billion. There is a list of eight who have personally gained at least a billion.

Twelve companies (https://popular.info/p/multi-millionaire-trump-donor-is) gave their loans back, because they were shown to have other sources of credit. But there are many more publicly-traded and bonus-paying companies that have gotten millions. The topmost, and many of the largest, recipients, are Trump contributors.

"Congress approved an additional $310 billion last week, but most of that money will go to businesses already in the pipeline. Many small enterprises will still be left out."

Here is another article about a few contributors (https://theintercept.com/2020/04/24/coronavirus-small-business-loans-trump-donors-ppp/) and what they have gotten.

"The companies were eligible for PPP loans because the program was intentionally designed to benefit large franchise owners of restaurants and hotels operators, as long as each location employs 500 people or less...JPMorgan Chase, for instance, awarded nearly every high-income private banking customer a PPP loan who applied, while only 6 percent of the 300,000 retail small business customers who applied were able to receive a loan. Surveys from the National Federation of Independent Business show that only 20 percent of small businesses that applied received a PPP loan."

I have almost no clue who any of the lucky businesses are, although there is a good clump of pharma, and a financial service.

"Over half of the businesses that applied for the loans in Republican-leaning states such as North Dakota and Nebraska received approval. In Democratic-leaning states hard hit by the crisis, such as California and New York, the rates are 15 and 18 percent respectively."

This all sounds extraordinarily biased, but, if the facts are that biased, there you go.

BREAKING: California Doctors Go on Ingraham Angle, Challenge Official COVID Policy — YOUTUBE THEN TAKES DOWN THEIR VIDEOS!

On Saturday two California doctors of Immunology went on with KIRO News 23 in California and made a video disputing the official state coronavirus policy in California.

Doctors Dan Erickson and Artin Massihi said their facilities have tested over 5,200 patients for the coronavirus throughout the county, making up for over half of all testing in Kern County. According to their data, the death rate of the coronavirus is similar in prevalence to the flu. And they believe only the sick and elderly should be quarantined and that businesses should open. They also revealed that the state of California is pressuring doctors to pad the COVID-19 numbers.

…

On Monday night the two California doctors went on The Ingraham Angle with Laura Ingraham to discuss their expertise and challenge the official state narrative on the coronavirus.

Following their appearance on the show their videos were removed from Google-YouTube!
They did not pass official WHO policy.
THESE TECH COMPANIES ARE OUT OF CONTROL!





Paul Joseph Watson coverage (Google-YouTube being allowed to operate like this really ticks me off!)

https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/youtube-censors-viral-video-california-doctors-criticizing-stay-home-order



n the clip, Erickson asserts that there is only a “0.03 chance of dying from COVID in the state of California,” prompting him to ask:

“Does that necessitate sheltering in place? Does that necessitate shutting down medical systems? Does that necessitate people being out of work?”

Erickson also asked why fatalities were being counted as COVID-19 deaths when other ailments were actually more to blame.

“When someone dies in this country right now, they’re not talking about the high blood pressure, the diabetes, the stroke. They’re saying ‘Did they die from COVID?'” Erickson said.

“We’ve been to hundreds of autopsies. You don’t talk about one thing, you talk about comorbidities. ER doctors now [say] ‘It’s interesting when I’m writing about my death report, I’m being pressured to add COVID. Why is that?”

The video was deleted late last night for “violating YouTube’s terms of service.”

The Supreme Court has just said 8 to 1 (https://www.wral.com/court-rules-insurers-can-collect-12b-under-health-care-law/19073601/) that insurance companies are to be reimbursed $12 billion by the government due to "losses" during Obamacare.

That itself was an unjust law--government compelling one to do private business--and now that I guess it is no longer used, the "government", that is, the taxpayers, get to pay for the complaint. It is a steady flow from the Green Party candidate running against Obama on the platform "this is the only developed country in the world with a health system backed by a for-profit insurance agency".

That's one of those deep taboos you are not supposed to mention in politics.

It may not be directly related to coronavirus but certainly is part of the same fog of being "blinded by doctors" and that insurance dictates the majority of human behavior. If we look at what's going to happen to food, it will probably be insane.

More meat plants are closing due to infections...not due to actual sickness where workers are keeling over in droves, but, just the presence of the virus means we have to stop.

The amount of work to be done is going to triple while business falls; restaurants in Atlanta are opening and you will find things like all employees and customers masked and bleaching down everything every thirty minutes. That's right, you can take off the mask to stuff food in your mouth, but otherwise wear it. It will be more like a visit to an operating room than going out to eat.

The business will have to separate customers--i. e., less volume, period--possibly put in various barriers, and have to get loads of extra cleaning and sanitation supplies and put man hours into using it. Nothing is "firm" yet--each state will form its own guidelines, but, we should not be surprised if these are soon written into insurance policies.

Like many businesses find themselves "regulated to death" by demands of the past, that is just going to get a lot more restrictive and expensive.

Georgia and a few other states are opening, while the "disease chorus" continues to cheer about how this is still going to wipe out the human race while we make China definitively responsible. The regimen of testing and contact tracing that they seek, seems to me, worthless. It should focus on the needful minority, like splitting nursing home patients out in hotels. They have the means to do it that way, but, I guess insurance probably wouldn't allow it. That is probably part of the "slow" U. S. reaction, like you cannot drive a car uninsured for five minutes, since they will grab some case that shows someone causing damage in a five-minute window. So you probably can't just shuffle patients because they would be uninsured, and I doubt most other countries have their hands tied like that.

I am not sure about all that, but I am pretty sure that insurance will carry forward with enhanced power.

My model for this Corona Virus operation is that it was well planned and has been very nicely executed (among other reasons) to change American society, for whatever reason.

But I am still grappling with the question of the role of Fauci/Gates/Big Tech/NIH/NWO, etc. Is this group working in conjunction with the CCP, or against the CCP?

I am keeping my notes short here but am hoping readers can share their thoughts as to where the battle lines are actually drawn....

[Ernie Nemeth]

The insurance industry has made milestone inroads into our lives as of late. The new normal is the imposition of the industry directly into the pockets of ordinary citizens by law. The tacit under-current of sentiment by government is that corporations, as opposed to just regular companies, can be trusted to police themselves and to not over-charge for their services.

There seems to be a strange relationship between government and corporations. It is as though once a business incorporates it joins the ranks of those institutions that enjoy an unprecedented level of protection that amounts to an inability to ever fail. Yet what this means is lost on the public. Because in the simplest terms it means that either a corporation is successful the old fashioned way by selling its wares at a mark up, or the public must pay in the form of increased taxes to keep them afloat. We already had 2008, which put our grandchildren in debt. Now this round of bailouts will hobble our great-great grand-children. Luckily the value of our money is less than Monopoly money so in the end no one will need to pay it back. Meanwhile, however, they use the perception of value in our funny money to lord it over us and enact an insolvency that will and is making it impossible to continue forward.

As to the players. I don't think this a Chinese thing, it is a global tyranny involving a few top-ranking politicians, diplomats, bankers, and businessmen in many countries. They wish to restrict travel and institute manufactured consent for a personal tracking system to keep tabs on everyone's whereabouts 24/7.

[kfm27917]

he way global leaders often successfully trick us is by telling us they hate what they eventually embrace. They hate China’s iron fist rule but the “free world” adopted the exact same measures implemented by the Chinese government during their own versions of lockdown that they rolled out to “fight” the global pandemic. This is not a new tactic, but very few take the time to take a breath and identify that the tactics being implemented by their own governments are the ones their governments massively criticized perhaps just a few months prior. Ever since 911, using the PNAC (the Project for the New American Century) blueprint of using a crisis to forward an agenda much more rapidly than would be possible under non-crisis situations has also been in play worldwide. PNAC, run by US war hawks at the time, including former Ronald Reagan advisor Richard Perle, then US VP Dick Cheney, US Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, Deputy Defence Secretary Paul Wolfowitz, Cheney’s chief of staff Lewis Libby, former Reagan Education Secretary William J Bennett, and Bush’s US Abassador to Afghanistan, Zalmay Khalilzad, once stated in a formal published paper that "some catastrophic and catalysing event - like a new Pearl Harbor" was needed to expedite the timeline of their agenda; otherwise execution of their desired agenda would be slow and painful.



When it comes to a crisis, the REAL answers to questions that arise from a crisis are NEVER the most readily apparent answers

In the US, one of the government’s first response to the pandemic threat was that it was not any worse than the flu. In China, the initial numbers reported by Chinese government officials about the number of people infected and dead from the infection were wrong, and Chinese government officials likely viewed the dispensing of false numbers for political expediency as an extension of the ongoing very cantankerous and hostile US China trade war. In other words, in war, history has informed us that all deception is fair, even deception about a health pandemic. Therefore the fact that Chinese government officials may have viewed reporting about the pandemic through the lens of the trade war and thus used false data as a weapon in the trade war, should really not be shocking to anyone, especially State leaders that are supposed to be far better versed in the Art of War and the Art of Deception than their citizens. The very reason why so many people today have no idea that the strongest epidemiological evidence of the origin of the worst global pandemic in history, the Spanish flu, a pandemic that killed perhaps as many as 55 million people, pointed to Haskell County, Kansas in the United States. And even though it’s now chic to blame the Chinese for everything and National Geographic has even revived a theory about the Spanish flu originating with Chinese laborers, the linked article above explains why the strongest epidemiological evidence of the origins of the Spanish Flu cannot be traced to Chinese laborers, as suggested by National Geographic, but to Americans.



If we analyze the reasons why the Spanish Flu is not known by its more proper name the American Flu, then we will clearly understand, while any deliberate misreporting of data regarding a pandemic is unacceptable, the motivations behind why it happens. The very reason this pandemic is not known as the American flu even though epidemiologists that studied the origins of this pandemic in depth have unilaterally concluded that it originated in the US, was because WWI was ongoing at the time. Countries that suffered losses of soldiers from the American-originated pandemic suppressed accurate information about it for intelligence purposes. However, Spanish officials, who were neutral, non-participants in the war, reported the most accurate data about the pandemic of anyone at the time. Therefore, people falsely assumed that the virus originated in Spain because the most accurate data about it originated from Spain and falsely labeled it as the Spanish flu. Multiple nations weaponized false data about the Spanish flu during WWI in an attempt to gain an advantage over other nations and this will not be the last time that data is weaponized. In the future, if another pandemic happens, sadly, I am positive that governments around the world will once again “weaponize” the data for political purposes.



The number of very anti-aggressive Chinese and blame China for the spread of the pandemic narratives that has been proliferating in the media in recent weeks, especially in Western nations, has at its core a political agenda. Again, for those have been following my commentary about this matter, you know that I stated in late February that the data originating from China about the pandemic was likely to be highly inaccurate, so I don’t oppose these claims. However, when the same people spouting anti-China rants become conveniently amnesic about the highly inaccurate fear-mongering data trumpeted by their own leaders, such as a possible 2.2 million deaths in America resulting from the pandemic forwarded by British epidemiologist Nicholas Kristoff or America’s own President, Donald Trump, stating just a few weeks ago, that limiting the pandemic’s death toll to only 100,000 to 200,000 Americans would be a “very good job” on his behalf, then I have a problem with this type of deliberately imbalanced reporting that is a consequence of political expediency. The fact that so many commentators today hold their own nation’s leaders to completely different standards than foreign State leaders when it comes to truth and accuracy in reporting proves that politics and nationalism are still playing a massive role in the distorted manner in which coverage of this global pandemic continues. Furthermore, I maintain that it is impossible for such people engaging in nationalistic campaigns and using the pandemic for political capital to lift up their nation while degrading others to arrive at the real reasons behind the global pandemic lockdown. Why? As you will soon discover, understanding the real reasons behind the global pandemic lockdown requires looking at the situation through a neutral lens with no pre-determined conclusion as to who is right and who is wrong versus a nationalistic lens that blindly colors every decision made by one’s own leader as correct and the ones made by another nation’s leader as wrong.
