Claude Monet Grand Canal, Venice 1908

 

 

 

Our freedoms are cancel-cultured one by one, and by now hardly anyone notices anymore, because the media is in on it. But this cannot end well. We better stop this now, or it will get awfully out of hand. It’s a sliding scale bouncing down a slippery slope that gifts politicians and “health authorities” the world over with ever more powers, which they really should not have, as everyone would agree with who takes a step back to look at the bigger picture.

 

• ONLY doctors are experts.

• We use ONLY vaccines to fight Covid, no prophylactics. No vitamin D, HCQ or ivermectin.

• We have ONLY Emergency Use Authorization vaccines.

• We can soon ONLY travel after having been inoculated with such vaccines.

• We can ONLY express officially approved opinions.

 

 

• ONLY doctors are experts.

You can’t let your country be run by doctors, virologists and epidemiologists. Anyone can understand that. But this is the reality:

Advisory Committee On Pandemic Needs Variety Of Experts, Not Just Doctors

The existing committee of experts advising the government on the pandemic must reshape to add experts from different research disciplines instead of one to become more efficient, according to a professor on Friday. Manolis Dermitzakis, professor of genetics at the University of Geneva, told Skai television that, in the first wave of the pandemic, the decisions for the committee were simple. It ONLY had to decide whether some activities should open or close, while the public largely complied with the restrictive measures. But the complexity of the situation as the pandemic continued from the summer onwards was so great that a commission which includes ONLY doctors could not function. Dermitzakis also argued that the panel must have fewer members. “A committee that has 30-40 members and consists ONLY of doctors cannot function,” he said.

• We use ONLY vaccines to fight Covid, no prophylactics. No vitamin D, HCQ or ivermectin.

We talked about the absurdity of this so much at the Automatic Earth, no need to repeat it.

 

• We have ONLY Emergency Use Authorization vaccines.

That one is tricky: none of the vaccines injected into 100s of millions of people has been approved. Who knows this though, that gets “jabbed”?

• We can soon ONLY travel after having been inoculated with such vaccines.

This article beats around the -legal- bush a little, but you just watch:

EU’s Green Pass Will ONLY Be Valid With EMA-Approved COVID Vaccinations

An EU source has told Euronews that the Green Pass proposal, to be put forward on March 17th to aid free movement within the bloc, will ONLY be valid with EMA-approved vaccinations. Why? Because the vaccinations from unapproved companies will not be covered by the EU liability clause and quality control. The source reported that EU justice commissioner Didier Reynders made it clear that member states were free to get their citizens vaccinated by other products, but they would not be allocated a licensed travel certificate unless their jab had been from an approved company, of which there are currently four. Pfizer/BioNtech, AstraZeneca, Moderna and Johnson&Johnson.


The duration of the digital green certificate should be limited to the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, the EU source said, adding that tests and quarantine will continue to be the enablers of free movement. Thus, vaccination does not become a pre-condition for free movement.

 

But Europe won’t even have the vaccines it needs to enact such policies. You will end up with a new elite: the vaccinated. Older people. Who, as far as we know, will still be liable to be infected, and infect others. The youth must stay home. You MUST be vaccinated, but right now, we’re all out. Call again in September. Call me maybe.

 

Europe’s COVID Vaccine Rollout Faces Even More Delays

Earlier today, a smattering of European nations halted vaccinations for at least some AstraZeneca COVID vaccine jabs amid an investigation into whether the jabs contributed to dangerous blood clots that led to at least one death. And as if this wasn’t a big enough problem for one day, Bloomberg reports that manufacturing issues are plaguing AstraZeneca’s manufacturing facilities, creating more obstacles to distribution. And now European governments are bracing for further delays. Good thing Italy refused to send that one shipment of jabs to Australia. Here’s more from Bloomberg:

“European Union governments are bracing for further possible delays in the distribution of AstraZeneca Plc’s Covid vaccine after a warning from the European Commission that the manufacturer remains a problem, according to a diplomatic note seen by Bloomberg. Astra Chief Executive Pascal Soriot said last month the company would look at tapping international supply chains to make up for some of the shortfall, including production in the U.S.

It’s revised its delivery schedule multiple times, most recently committing to 40 million doses this quarter and 180 million in the second from an earlier goal of about 280 million across both periods. But at a meeting of EU ambassadors on Wednesday, diplomats were told by senior EU officials that Astra continues to be “problematic.” They also heard that Johnson & Johnson, which could get market authorization from the European Medicines Agency on Thursday, has yet to provide a delivery schedule for its vaccine.”

 

There are still enormous potential issues with the Emergency Use Authorization vaccines. This is not kid’s play. There’s this from my article yesterday:

 

Mass Vaccination Amidst A Pandemic Creates An Irrepressible Monster

Basically, we’ll very soon be confronted with a super-infectious virus that completely resists our most precious defense mechanism: The human immune system. From all of the above, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to imagine how the consequences of the extensive and erroneous human interventon in this pandemic are not going to wipe out large parts of our human population. One could ONLY think of very few other strategies to achieve the same level of efficiency in turning a relatively harmless virus into a bioweapon of mass destruction.

 

And there’s this, rehashed by Jim Rickards:

 

The Vaccines Aren’t Actually Vaccines

First, these so-called vaccines are not really vaccines in the widely understood sense. A traditional vaccine involves an injection either with a weakened form of the virus you are protecting against or a similar virus. Either one can produce antibodies that remain in the system and fight the actual disease if you get it. These new vaccines are entirely different. I don’t want to get too deep into the weeds here, but these treatments use experimental genetic modification to inject you with mRNA, which is a partial strand of genetic code. That mRNA then enters your cells and orders the cells to construct a spike protein similar to SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID). This spike protein then precipitates antibodies that can reduce your reaction to SARS-CoV-2 if you get it.

But the “vaccine” does not prevent you from getting COVID, and it does not prevent you from spreading it to others. The spike protein remains with you indefinitely. In effect, you have modified your own genetic make-up to fight COVID without actually gaining immunity and without reducing transmissibility. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, if you’re immune to a disease, “you can be exposed to it without becoming infected.” But these vaccines do not prevent you from being infected or spreading it to others. Some have likened them to chemotherapy for a cancer you don’t have.Vaccines of this type with respect to viruses are entirely new in humans. Studies have not gone on long enough to evaluate long-term side effects.

These drugs are not FDA approved; they are being distributed under an emergency waiver to avoid the normal approval process. It’s almost like we’re being used as guinea pigs. It is likely that most people receiving the drugs are unaware of these important differences between the new drugs and traditional vaccines, which raises questions about whether their “consent” is fully informed. There could be very good reasons for vulnerable individuals to take these drugs, but they should not be mistaken for the kind of smallpox, polio and flu vaccinations with which we are familiar. As far as vaccines go, mRNA genetic therapy is a brave new world — one that is not well understood.

 

• We can ONLY express officially approved opinions.

Twitter and Facebook have set standards for this. None of the “old media” deviate from these opinions either.The number of articles on ivermectin, HCQ, vit. D from medical professionals that have been cancel-cultured by social media is staggering. That’s not just un-American, it’s un-every country that pretends to be a democracy.

Like Joe Biden said yesterday: if you’re good boys and girls, and get injected with an experimental never tested and thus never approved substance, then maybe we will allow you to have 1 or 2 friends over in 4 month’s time. I like Tucker Carlson’s reaction to that:

Tucker Biden

 

Governments across the world have spectacularly failed in their “three weeks to flatten the curve” policies, but don’t anyone dare call them on that. It’s not their fault, it’s the virus, and the variants, and the young people, and all those who don’t obey the orders. But never the people who made and make these decisions. Our world over the past year has become a one-dimensional myopic dystopia in which people will get increasingly uncomfortable and agitated. You just watch.

Just watch what happens when countries and states are forced to open their economies again because they can no longer afford to prop up everything inside them. You will see gigantic waves of lay-offs, which will only exacerbate the problems businesses are already in. And no American Rescue Plan or comparable stimulus elsewhere will rescue anything in the longer term.

And then…because they all want to balance their budgets, taxes will start rising. But that won’t be their fault either.

    Following the Vanden Bossche screed in the previous thread see Israel, the top-star-vax country. All nos. from Our World in Data.

    Israel, number of daily deaths (7 day rolling average) per million ppl:

    Highest point 2020 Oct 14 ………………. 4.47
    Down, down -> lowest Dec 9………………0.79
    Steep rise -> highest Jan 25 2021……… 7.49 (note 1)
    Then sinking -> latest March 6 2021……..2.05

    Vaccinations. Doses per 100 people (Pfizer vax, 2 doses needed.)

    is an almost perfect linear trend, going from

    Dec. 23 2020………1.62
    Jan 25 2021……… 46.8
    March 11 2021……106.5

    Haaretz March 11 2021: 56% pop received first jab, 43% got 2 jabs, fits with the nos. above.

    The death numbers, provided one accepts them, do not support the idea that vaccines are creating a ‘surge’ in deaths within the quite narrow time period (their long-term effects are another topic), nor the claim that vaccines have lowered deaths.

    No relationship between the two can be discerned. *Imho.*

    There is the time lag – about 1 or 2 weeks to note infection, another 2 weeks or often far more till death. Plus, overall the numbers of deaths are too small. As are at various dates the ‘fully vaccinated’ (what groups?) etc. Many other variables can be presumed to play a role and are left aside.

    This statement is false: ” The spike protein remains with you indefinitely. In effect, you have modified your own genetic make-up to fight COVID “.

    “In effect, you have modified your own genetic make-up to fight COVID without actually gaining immunity and without reducing transmissibility.”

    It’s IMPOSSIBLE to change DNA with the mRNA that is being injected. As soon as proteins are created the mRNA is degraded and disappears.

    No, It’s a biological fact, not a political one. Requiring or not the vaccine shouldn’t depend on the fact that it does not alter your DNA.

    A carjacker points a gun at you, tells you to scooch over, takes the wheel and goes on a crime spree. He hasn’t modified your car, but he’s sure done a s#!+-ton of damage, eh? And then he leaves…no more carjacker, but things are still mighty f#(<ed up.

    I guess it depends on your conscience and if you think you need to be vaccinated for this virus or not. The biological fact that is doesn’t alter your DNA should not interfere on your choice.

    The mRNA is a synthetic mRNA. According to the CDC website “Once the instructions (mRNA) are inside the immune cells, the cells use them to make the protein piece. After the protein piece is made, the cell breaks down the instructions and gets rid of them.”

    According to Wiki (lazy, yes, but have read this in other sources): “Once inside the immune cells, the vaccine’s RNA functions as mRNA, causing the cells to build the foreign protein that would normally be produced by a pathogen (such as a virus) or by a cancer cell. These protein molecules stimulate an adaptive immune response which teaches the body how to identify and destroy the corresponding pathogen or cancer cells.[1] The delivery of mRNA is achieved by a co-formulation of the molecule into lipid nanoparticles which protect the RNA strands and helps their absorption into the cells.”

    I can’t speak for Jim Rickards or Raul or anyone else who is raising concerns about this injection, but I don’t think any of them are trying to imply it will “change your genes” and somehow turn your brown eyes blue.

    However, injecting a synthetic mRNA surrounded by lipid nanoparticles into your body, which does indeed instruct your cells to create protein pieces, is IMO a big deal. Especially an untested therapy with no studies on the mid- to long-term effects. The fact it’s synthetic is enough to raise an eyebrow. Since our bodies aren’t good at breaking down synthetic anything, is there proof this synthetic mRNA breaks down and is disposed of in a similar way to natural mRNA?

    What boggles my mind is that anyone would consider being a part of this global medical experiment.

    Having said that – you want the vaccine, get it. I’m not sure why we even debate this anymore.

    We don’t have the technology to alter DNA in situ, without a Crispr-CAS9 protocol in place, and the vaccine amount and known ingredients don’t show that this is present in their components (I bet some people checked, independently).

    Also, many different treatments rely on lysosomes for cell injection of different drugs that usually don’t pass through the cell wall.

    If the mRNA vaccine is the problem, just wait for the J&J, or do not take it. It’s not up to the government to tell us what to do, personal responsibility.

    Compare what the vaccine does to what sars-cov2, which is RNA, does to your cells. If you want to make an informed decision you don’t want misinformation everywhere. Also immunity doesn’t mean not getting infected, it means not getting ill.


    Q: How long does the spike protein made by the body (via encoding through the mRNA vaccine) last in the body? 

    A: The protein lasts the same amount of time as other proteins made by the body. Exact time is not known, but it is estimated to be a few weeks. ”

    Great summary.
    I want to point out that several of us here were pointing to the potential for this to occur at least a year ago.
    The invocation of a Black Swan strategy/response ala Taleb requires the absolutely rigourous standards precisely because what hangs in the balance is the rule of law and society.
    It was obvious from around Day 2 that the Imperial College models did not pass those standards, either from historical accuracy, or from the quality of their model. In a robust decision analysis, Option 1 is always “Do Nothing” (or some mildly precautionary version thereof), and should be the default when the other options are underpinned by emotion (fear) rather than quality data.

    The underpinning psychology of the individual is well layed out here: Conspiracy psychology

    Dr Pierre Kory has been on the front lines in ICU units from the starts of Covid

    Here is the interview link

    Dr. Pierre Kory interviewed by Willem Engel (who is Dutch)

    Somewhere in the interview, when discussing Ivermectin and his personal experience using it hundreds if not thousands of times in ICU, he say, paraphrasing,

    ” ..when the history of Covid is finally covered, the centrally organization suppression of using Ivermectin to treat Covid will be looked back upon as a Crime Against Humanity”

    Pretty strong language against the political and medical Pathocracy currently calling the shots (pun intended)

    Interest that Dr Kory used the phrase, “Crimes Against Humanity”

    So does Dr Reiner Fuellmich

    In fact he has brought up the specter of Nuremberg 2.0

    Again, very strong language.

    Dr Reiner Fuellmich is a very successful trial lawyer against fraudulent corporations such as Deutsche bank, VW, and Cunard and Niagara.

    He is also one of four members of the German Corona Investigative Committee.

    Since July 10, 2020, this committee has been listening to a large number of international scientists and experts’ testimony.

    After hearing these scientists Reiner Fuellmich says

    “This corona crisis, according to all we know today, must be renamed a corona scandal; and those responsible for it must be criminally prosecuted and sued for civil damages”

    “..which has meanwhile unfolded into probably the greatest crime against humanity ever committed…”

    On my Honda drive today to see if it still works, News Radio huffed and puffed about Joe Biden forgetting the Defense Secretary’s name and wondering if a fit energetic Kamala Harris wouldn’t be better for the nation. This station takes the Foreign Establishment’s Syria, Ukraine, Libya, and Iraq propaganda hook, line, and sinker.

    I feel for Joe, he is a year older than me. My short term memory is gone. Did I take that last pill or not? But there is a bigger problem, cognitive dissonance. Joe is the Last Emperor. Way back in the Reagan Administration, I acknowledged that I didn’t get RIFed (Reduction in Force) because corporations thought that safety testing and government approval was important and it kept the competitors from entering the market place.

    Now that corporations have consolidated into a few multi-nationals and have bought the democracies, safety testing and planning for the future are no longer needed. All that matters is this quarter’s profit (not the millions of humans dead from the weather, plague, war or famine). Life is so bad that the kids are being sent across the Southern US border by themselves. War and economic refugees drown in the Mediterranean Sea.

    Since the pandemic, things are not the same in the West. The points in this post are valid but cannot be acknowledged. The Green Zone protects the US Capitol.

    If Joe Biden is removed out of office by the 25th amendment, it will be the 75 million MAGA Nationalists against the top 5% Globalists led by Kamala Harris. There is no compromise possible. They don’t live on the same world. Chaos is about to engulf the Americas. But, the US Senate Republican Minority Leader says the economy is just about to come roaring back.

    What is the truth?
