In England during weeks 36 to 39 in 2020, there were 571 COVID deaths.
In the same period in 2021, there were 3,026 COVID deaths.
2,281 (75%) of these deaths were fully vaccinated, i.e. >= 14 days post dose 2.

Pfizer’s COVID-19 Vaccine With Comirnaty Label Still Not Available in US (ET)

Officials in 19 states confirmed this week to The Epoch Times they have not received doses of Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine labeled Comirnaty. So did pharmacies in New York, California, and Missouri. A Pfizer spokesperson told The Epoch Times in an email that there are no doses of Comirnaty in the United States as of Oct. 12. “The FDA-approved Comirnaty and the EUA-authorized Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine have the same formulation and, according to the FDA labeling, can be used interchangeably to provide the COVID-19 vaccination series,” a Pfizer spokesman told The Epoch Times. However, lawyers representing clients challenging vaccine requirements, say the lack of availability means vaccine mandates based on the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval are unlawful.

“Under the emergency use authorization, everyone has an option to accept or refuse the product. And that means every person, military and civilian. So this is critical. All of the mandates, from the military to the civilian population, are violating federal law,” Mathew Staver, chairman of Liberty Counsel, a Christian legal group, told The Epoch Times. The situation would be different if Comirnaty was available, Staver said. “You cannot interchange BioNTech’s Cominarty with Pfizer’s [shot] from a legal standpoint. They are legally distinct.” Contact with state and federal officials and pharmacies revealed widespread confusion regarding the differences between the approved Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine and the version that received emergency use authorization (EUA) in December 2020 and continues to be administered under EUA now.

A number of officials were unaware of any differences and others insisted they were the same for all intents and purposes, including several officials with the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), which handles distribution of COVID-19 vaccines. “It’s the same thing,” an HHS official told The Epoch Times. That’s a different message than that being sent to states, some of which have been told by federal officials not to expect doses of Comirnaty for a while. “The CDC anticipates that Comirnaty will begin to ship some time in November at the earliest,” a spokesman for the Arizona Department of Health told The Epoch Times in an email, referring to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. “The Maryland Department of Health has been told by the CDC that Comirnaty will not ship until the end of October/beginning of November,” a spokesman with the Maryland Department of Health told The Epoch Times in an email.

Modelling: Covid Cases Could Peak At 5,300 A Week In Auckland Next Year (G.)

New Zealand is preparing to face up to 5,300 cases of Covid-19 a week in Auckland and the neighbouring region of Northland alone next year, even with a vaccination rate of 90%, according to modelling from the Ministry of Health. The minister of health, Andrew Little revealed the plan for how the health system could manage a surge in cases after the current vaccination drive, as the country recorded 71 new cases on Thursday. It includes upping intensive care (ICU) beds, preparing to relocate health staff to smaller regions if an outbreak emerges, giving nurses preemptive ICU training and preparing to support people recovering at home.


The number of people in ICU and high dependency units (HDU) is currently at roughly two-thirds of capacity and 16% of available ventilators are being utilised. The capacity ICU and HDU beds nationwide can be surged to 550 beds from its current capacity of 320-340 beds. Ministry of Health chief medical officer Andrew Connolly said the system is well prepared, but any system would be overwhelmed if the numbers became too great. Between 0.2 and 0.4% of Delta patients will require ICU care, while the others may need a “short, sharp burst” of hospital-level care, Connolly said. Providing vaccination levels are high, the vast number of cases would be able to recover at home in the future, with about 5% needing hospital care, Little said.

Aspirin Not Recommended For Most Adults To Prevent Heart Attacks (Hill)

An influential U.S. panel of experts changed its recommendations for people who take low dosages of aspirin in order to prevent first heart attacks or strokes. The U.S. Preventative Services Task Force in a draft proposal released Tuesday recommended that adults ages 40 to 59 should only be taking low dosages of the blood thinner if their physician determines that they are at high risk for cardiovascular disease. Aspirin acts as an anticoagulant, which means it aids in preventing blood clots from forming, which is how heart attacks and strokes typically develop. Taking daily doses of aspirin was thought to lower the risk of these clots, and therefore lower the risk of heart disease and stokes.

In addition, the new guidance detailed in the draft recommends that people over the age of 60 not take aspirin to prevent first heart attacks or strokes. Previously, guidance had recommended a daily regimen of low-dose aspirin for people over the age of 50 who were at higher risk for heart attacks or strokes in the next decade, as long as they were not at a higher risk of bleeding. This move marks the first time that a U.S. health task force has recommended that adults in their 40s speak with their doctors about aspirin for heart health. This draft recommendation does not apply to people who have already suffered a heart attack or stroke. The task force still recommends that those people take aspirin preventatively.

“The latest evidence is clear: starting a daily aspirin regimen in people who are 60 or older to prevent a first heart attack or stroke is not recommended,” Tseng said in a statement. “However, this Task Force recommendation is not for people already taking aspirin for a previous heart attack or stroke; they should continue to do so unless told otherwise by their clinician.”

Ishmael is Karl Denninger’s alter ego.

Unexpected Allies (Ishmael)

Strikes and quitting jobs are the last peaceful means left before the guns and gasoline come out. If the right 10% of Americans quit, the ones who move people and freight around the country, clown world would disappear in a week. Even idiots in D.C. will understand when their grocery store shelves are bare. When planes and trains don’t move, they’ll get it. Those folks have the ability to end it the quickest, but what about everyone who doesn’t work in transportation? Same thing, strikes and walkouts work. Twenty percent of the workers at any job do 80% of the work. If you’re in the 20%, you leaving throws things into chaos. Oh, the company might not realize it for a while since many have a lot of vacation and sick leave to burn before slamming the door. Companies who pontificated how replaceable everyone is are going to find out the hard way they’re wrong.

Oops. When 80% of the money and productivity walk out the door they can’t import an H1B or hire a recent college grad. Training? Forget it. The company is stuck with a huge, gaping knowledge hole and the only one capable of training the replacement walked out the door! Don’t have one of those sexy jobs? You might be part of the 20% and not realize it. This could be as simple as being the only person who knows how to order supplies in a timely manner or does all the little things everyone takes for granted but no one knows exactly who does it. The secretary throws sand into the gears on her way out because a design engineer has to figure out how to order post-its. And God help you if the person who walks is in payroll. Whoever you are, you have the ability to bankrupt the company.

Who are your allies? What pool of people out there are most likely to act along with you (striked and quitting)? Some allies are obvious: folks in the “ain’t no way, no how, no body jabbing me,” crowd are natural allies. Their actions perfectly align. Jab mandate? Good-bye, and the door will not hit them on the way out. Some people got the first round of clot shots, but don’t believe in mandates. If they strike or walk, they’re allies. Some will, some won’t. If they are supportive, they aren’t enemies, which counts for something. Some want you to take the jab because they did. These are not allies. They range from idiots to true believers. Don’t engage with idiots. Don’t explain how to pour water out of a boot, they’ll never acknowledge the boot or water exist. Save your energy for the enemy: the true believer. There’s the pool of potential allies.

Looks pretty shallow: purebloods with ****-you money and maybe a few sympathizers. Remember the 20% rule and don’t lose hope. But wait purebloods, there is another group of natural allies: Those who got ****ed by the vax and survived (so far). People whose loved ones face expensive health problems are going to sit this one out. The parent who was “so proud” of their kid for getting the clot shot only to have him end up in the ICU with a heart attack? They are going to do whatever it takes to pay for the best treatments possible, including ****ing themselves up the ass to keep their insurance. These are not the allies. The working adults who got screwed by the vax are. Screwed. Hospitalizations, cancer, autoimmune disorders, permanent disabilities. Not sick for three days, screwed by life altering side effects. Why are they allies? ALLIES ACT. The act is “not working.”

Mixed messages at best.

Southwest CEO Says No Employees Will Be Fired Over Vaccine Mandate (AmG)

During an interview with ABC News Tuesday, Gary Kelly, the CEO of Southwest Airlines, stated that no employees will be fired over the company’s vaccine mandate. However, the airline announced on October 4 that all 56,000 U.S. Southwest employees needed to get vaccinated against COVID-19 by November 24, or face termination. The CEO also told ABC’s George Stephanopoulos that there was “no evidence” that any type of demonstration against the mandate had contributed to the massive service disruptions over the holiday weekend. Over 2,000 Southwest flights were cancelled, leaving tens of thousands of passengers stranded. “There’s just no evidence of that,” Kelly said. “Our people are working very hard, they’re doing a great job, I’m very proud of them.”

He did acknowledge that the vaccine mandate is “very controversial,” and not something he wanted for his company. “This is a government mandate, it’s a presidential order, and we’re doing our best to comply with that according to the deadlines that have been set,” Kelly said. The CEO told employees last week that the airline had no choice but to comply with the regime’s vaccine mandate. “Southwest Airlines is a federal contractor and we have no viable choice but to comply with the U.S. government mandate for employees to be vaccinated, and — like other airlines — we’re taking steps to comply,” Kelly said. An executive order was issued last month requiring all federal employees to get vaccinated, but no executive order, or federal regulation has yet been issued for private companies.

Joe Biden on September 9 unveiled his draconian plan to force all private businesses with more than 100 employees to make their workers get inoculated with the experimental COVID vaccines, or face weekly testing. A month later, no official guidance on the alleged mandate has been issued by the White House, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), or the Department of Labor. During his interview on ABC Tuesday, Kelly stated that Southwest would not be terminating any employees who refuse the injections. “We’re not going to fire any employees over this. We’re urging all of our employees to get vaccinated. If they can’t get vaccinated, we’re urging them to seek an accommodation, so we’ll do everything we can to support our people here,” he said. The guidance below went out to all Southwest employees on October 4:

“I do not believe the city has the authority to mandate that to anybody, let alone that information about your medical history.”

Chicago Police Union Head Urges Cops To Defy Vaccine Mandate (AP)

The head of the Chicago police officers union has called on its members to defy the city’s requirement to report their COVID-19 vaccination status by Friday or be placed on unpaid leave. In the video posted online Tuesday and first reported by the Chicago Sun-Times, Fraternal Order of Police President John Catanzara vowed to take Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s administration to court if it tries to enforce the mandate, which requires city workers to report their vaccine status by the end of the work week. After Friday, unvaccinated workers who won’t submit to semiweekly coronavirus testing will be placed on unpaid leave.

Catanzara suggested that if the city does enforce its requirement and many union members refuse to comply with it, “It’s safe to say that the city of Chicago will have a police force at 50% or less for this weekend coming up.” In the video, Catanzara instructs officers to file for exemptions to receiving the vaccine but to not enter that information into the city’s vaccine portal. He said that although he has made clear his vaccine status, “I do not believe the city has the authority to mandate that to anybody, let alone that information about your medical history.”

During a news conference Wednesday, Lightfoot accused Catanzara of spreading false information and dismissed most of his statements as “untrue or patently false.” She said COVID-19 vaccines are proven to be effective and that getting vaccinated would protect city workers and their families. “What we’re focused on is making sure that we maximize the opportunity to create a very safe workplace,” Lightfoot said. “The data is very clear. It is unfortunate that the FOP leadership has chosen to put out a counter narrative. But the fact of the matter is, if you are not vaccinated, you are playing with your life, the life of your family, the life of your colleagues and members of the public.”

Vaccine Mandate Challenges Falter, Judges Shrug At Natural Immunity (JTN)

Legal challenges to COVID-19 vaccine mandates on the basis of natural immunity are faltering, even as more research shows the comparable durability of the protection that natural antibodies afford against infection. U.S. District Judge Paul Maloney denied a preliminary injunction Friday against Michigan State University’s mandate, citing an order last month that left in place the University of California’s mandate as litigation proceeds. The course of litigation seems to be substantiating a warning by University of Notre Dame Law Professor Gerard Bradley, a vocal critic of mandates, that judges would be “very wary” of lawsuits that are “very heavily dependent upon medical facts and statistics.”

Religious challenges are faring better. A federal judge Tuesday blocked New York Gov. Kathy Hochul from removing religious exemptions from a vaccine mandate for healthcare workers originally imposed by her predecessor, the disgraced Andrew Cuomo. Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker is also seeking to “clarify” a state law that bans discrimination by public or private institutions based on a person’s “conscientious refusal to receive” healthcare services. Pritzker’s spokesperson told ABC 7 the Health Care Right of Conscience Act is at risk of being “misinterpreted by fringe elements.” The Fraternal Order of Police said it’s considering invoking the law against Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s COVID vaccine mandate for city employees.

As noted by the New Civil Liberties Alliance (NCLA), which is representing MSU employee Jeanna Morris, Judge Maloney previously issued an injunction against a vaccine mandate that violated the religious beliefs of student athletes, who “had no immunity whatsoever.” The public interest law firm didn’t answer a query from Just the News on whether it plans to revisit its litigation strategy in the wake of these setbacks. Its first natural immunity challenge prompted George Mason University to issue a medical exemption to law professor Todd Zywicki, but the vaccine mandate remains in force. The latest study to verify the protective power of natural immunity was published this week in the Journal of the American Medical Association Internal Medicine.

In a study of more than 800,000 Swedish families, Scandinavian university researchers found that family members without “immunity” — prior infection or vaccination — had a 45-97% lower risk of COVID infection “as the number of immune family members increased.” “The results were similar for the outcome of COVID-19 infection that was severe enough to warrant a hospital stay,” they wrote. Notably, the researchers weren’t able to perform a sensitivity analysis in fully vaccinated individuals because too few participated in the study. Vaccination is also proving insufficient to protect older people, according to U.K. government figures published last week that showed fully vaccinated older age groups now had higher infection rates than unvaccinated younger age groups.

Victoria Nuland Is In Moscow Negotiating The Status Of Ukraine’s Donbass (ZH)

Look who’s back in Eastern Europe – this time forced to deal directly with the Kremlin after a half-decade of military and political stalemate in war-torn eastern Ukraine. Victoria “F*ck The EU” Nuland is currently in Moscow for high-level talks with top Russian officials. Among multiple tense issues, there’s reportedly been progress on the situation in eastern Ukraine, related to working out a potential lasting political settlement leading to the cessation of violence there. As Biden’s Under Secretary for Political Affairs, Nuland kicked off three days of talks Tuesday and into Wednesday with Yury Ushakov, the top foreign policy aide to Putin. Interestingly the Kremlin agreed to a temporary lifting of travel sanctions against her just to enter the country for the meeting.

After initial meetings, Nuland hailed “the frank, productive review” of US-Russia relations, noting that the two sides are “committed to a stable, predictable relationship,” according to a US Embassy statement. On Tuesday after her arrival she had met with Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov, reportedly for more than an hour-and-a-half. The US side has indicated “no breakthroughs” in US-Russia relations as of yet, which comes after a year of sanctions and counter-sanctions targeting diplomats and mutual restrictions on media entities. It’s among the highest level meetings since Putin and Biden’s June summit in Geneva where the two leaders pledged better, frank and open communication – given Nuland is the number three highest official at the State Department.

While the American delegation hasn’t commented to this level of specifics, Russian media is citing Kremlin deputy chief of staff Dmitry Kozak as saying after Wednesday meetings that “A thorough and constructive dialogue took place regarding the settlement of the conflict in south-east Ukraine.” Kozak told the top daily newspaper Kommersant that there’s general agreement over mutual recognition of special autonomy for Donbass – where the Russia-backed, self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic and Lugansk People’s Republic have been in a military stalemate with Ukrainian national forces for the past six years: “It was confirmed that the Minsk agreements remain the only basis for a settlement,” he continued. “During the talks, the US confirmed its position… that significant progress towards the settlement of the conflict is unlikely without any agreement on future parameters of Donbass autonomy. In other words, giving the region a special status within Ukraine.”

The Hidden $150 Trillion Agenda Behind The Climate Change “Crusade” (ZH)

Responding rhetorically to the key question, “how much will it cost?”, BofA cuts to the case and writes $150 trillion over 30 years – some $5 trillion in annual investments – amounting to twice current global GDP! At this point the report gets good because since it has to be taken seriously, it has to also be at least superficially objective. And here, the details behind the numbers, do we finally learn why the net zero lobby is so intent on pushing this green utopia – simple answer: because it provides an endless stream of taxpayer and debt-funded “investments” which in turn need a just as constant degree of debt monetization by central banks.

Consider this: the covid pandemic has so far led to roughly $30 trillion in fiscal and monetary stimulus across the developed world. And yet, not even two years later, the effect of this $30 trillion is wearing off, yet despite the Biden’s admin to keep the Covid Crisis at bay, threatening to lock down society at a moment’s notice with the help of the complicit press, the population has made it clear that it will no longer comply with what is clear tyranny of the minority. And so, the establishment needs a new perpetual source (and use) of funding, a crisis of sorts, but one wrapped in a virtuous, noble facade. This is where the crusade against climate change comes in.

Much digital ink has been spilled on the philosophy and debate behind the green movement, and we won’t bore you with the details, but we will instead focus on the very clear, and very tangible financial consequences of a world where the establishment agrees, whether with democratic support or not, to allocate $5 trillion in new capital toward some nebulous cause of “fighting global warming.” Here are the highlights from Bank of America:

• Will it be inflationary? Yes, expect 1-3% pa shock. This is for the next 30 years… over and on top of any already present inflation!
• What are the bottlenecks? Geopolitics, climate wars and EM.
• Do we have the resources? Nickel and Lithium are just two that could be in deficit as soon as 2024.
• Is green technology really green? Not really (see below).

Drilling down on the absolutely staggering costs, at an estimated $150 trillion over 30 years, boosting funding sources to $5tn a year is equivalent to the entire US tax base, or 3x the COVID-19 stimulus this decade. Here are the details: The energy transition to a net zero greenhouse gas (GHG) economy by 2050 will be a very expensive exercise, estimated by the IEA at $150tn of total investment, over a period of 30 year. At $5tn p.a, the IEA see it costing as much as the entire US tax base every year for 30 years. Not high enough for you? Hang on then because… BNEF has a higher estimate that the total investment needed for energy supply and infrastructure could be as high as $173tn through 2050, or up to $5.8tn annually, which is nearly three times the amount invested on an annual basis today.

Nature exists to be exploited.

Wall Street’s Takeover of Nature Advances with Launch of New Asset Class (Webb)

Last month, the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) announced it had developed a new asset class and accompanying listing vehicle meant “to preserve and restore the natural assets that ultimately underpin the ability for there to be life on Earth.” Called a natural asset company, or NAC, the vehicle will allow for the formation of specialized corporations “that hold the rights to the ecosystem services produced on a given chunk of land, services like carbon sequestration or clean water.” These NACs will then maintain, manage and grow the natural assets they commodify, with the end of goal of maximizing the aspects of that natural asset that are deemed by the company to be profitable.

Though described as acting like “any other entity” on the NYSE, it is alleged that NACs “will use the funds to help preserve a rain forest or undertake other conservation efforts, like changing a farm’s conventional agricultural production practices.” Yet, as explained towards the end of this article, even the creators of NACs admit that the ultimate goal is to extract near-infinite profits from the natural processes they seek to quantify and then monetize. NYSE COO Michael Blaugrund alluded to this when he said the following regarding the launch of NACs: “Our hope is that owning a natural asset company is going to be a way that an increasingly broad range of investors have the ability to invest in something that’s intrinsically valuable, but, up to this point, was really excluded from the financial markets.”

Framed with the lofty talk of “sustainability” and “conservation”, media reports on the move in outlets like Fortune couldn’t avoid noting that NACs open the doors to “a new form of sustainable investment” which “has enthralled the likes of BlackRock CEO Larry Fink over the past several years even though there remain big, unanswered questions about it.” Fink, one of the world’s most powerful financial oligarchs, is and has long been a corporate raider, not an environmentalist, and his excitement about NACs should give even its most enthusiastic proponents pause if this endeavor was really about advancing conservation, as is being claimed.

The creation and launch of NACs has been two years in the making and saw the NYSE team up with the Intrinsic Exchange Group (IEG), in which the NYSE itself holds a minority stake. IEG’s three investors are the Inter-American Development Bank, the Latin America-focused branch of the multilateral development banking system that imposes neoliberal and neo-colonalist agendas through debt entrapment; the Rockefeller Foundation, the foundation of the American oligarch dynasty whose activities have long been tightly enmeshed with Wall Street; and Aberdare Ventures, a venture capital firm chiefly focused on the digital healthcare space. Notably, the IADB and the Rockefeller Foundation are closely tied to the related pushes for Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) and biometric Digital IDs.

    In the “small anecdotal datapoints” category, had a conversation with a delivery driver for one of the big companies (hint: brown uniform). He was livid with all the electronic “management” (I use that term facetiously) on the drivers by ‘management’, and said he’d yet to be paid (a large sum) for overtime work during the pandemic.

    Another friend has the same role with the competition (rhymes with “FedEx”). Also very upset. Pay, hours, “monitoring”, mandates, etc

    If this is any indication of a greater overall mood with the rank-and-file of these companies, sell any stock you may have in these corporations. These guys are pissed. Really pissed.

    Curious if others see this, too.

    Bob Nardelli, “conservative”, made his money during the greatest debt-bubble in housing in history. Moved on to manage a 2x bailed out car manufacturer. Home Depot taljs “team”, but if you make too much per hour (say $17), regardless of your experience and loyalty, they cancel your position, create a new one, and have you re-bid…wait for it…for less money (say $13).

    Now wants the military involved in supplanting the free-market economy so he doesn’t have to face the consequences of a system he helped build, and reaped the benefits.

    [From Fox News] “The ongoing labor shortage in the U.S. is now leading to massive cargo delays and shortages within the supply chain. Bob Nardelli, former CEO of Home Depot and Chrysler, warns the problem is becoming a national emergency. On “Fox & Friends,” Nardelli said “we need to be aggressive,” and suggested an emergency declaration that would allow the military to get involved in transporting cargo.”

    Government shutdowns, however, should NEVER include the FAA or air traffic control

    Hmmm, so every other large corporation is responding to the threat, “If you want to business with the federal government, you better vaccinate your workforce.” Going from memory, but in the regulations (OMB & OSHA) it is quite specific.

    Looks like Intel given a pass. What would happen to the world if the chip maker employees walk out. Karl is thinking big enough.

    Computer chip giant Intel reaffirmed Oct. 1 that it was still not requiring vaccination for its workforce, only requiring them to follow local laws. Managers may not ask for workers’ vaccination status, and employees are not allowed to decline to work with unvaccinated colleagues.

    Which, as shown, such lies still live in the deep hearts of Bill Maher and that wing, as they are susceptible to whatever this vocal engineering is. Yes, we know, he was a translator. At a State Department function. How dare we use Russian translators to translate Russian! But the point of bringing it up, after 4 years, a Mueller report, a Senate report, AP report, top news reports in all papers, only two humans ever talked to him, and only just this year: Aaron Mate, and now Matt Taibbi. That’s it. C’est ca. Fin. Arret. Parer. So there are only real two journalists in the West, no surprise.

    Why’s that important? It’s the expression of psychosis, a complete break from reality. The mentally ill of this color deeply believe the bizarre, paranoid, illogical stories their minds have created. We all do, that’s not the point. The reason it is a mental “illness” is because a) they avoid, fight, and lash out against anyone who presents alternate interpretations and evidence, and b) it causes them personal harm in the sense of being more afraid, more violent, and with an inaccurate response to evidence/stimulii that can cause them or others harm, even death.

    So the thing you’re learning, that not one FBI, CIA, AP, Reuters, NYTimes, BBC, Senate Committee, or Special Investigator ever asked a SINGLE question, is that they don’t want to know. Not one of them. And as they might have discovered something – maybe he COULD be off-color, Boris Badenov, useful – is that they reject reality instinctively, habitually, on contact. They have not the slightest interest in the veracity of anything they do, say, or think, which is the definition of “Bulls—t” but also of the mentally deranged in this capacity.

    Unfortunately, these are your countrymen, in every position and institution of power and influence. So like I said, what did you think would happen? They’d round up and arrest all 5 million in D.C.? And for what? Being mentally deranged and self-serving? I guess once you’re in and count heads, you have to figure what your strategy is. If 90% of the Federales are like this – constitutionally uninterested in truth, justice, reality, willing to blow up the planet to protect their psychosis — only thing to do is put up the walls around D.C. and turn it into a mental ward, removing the levers of power to other locations where they are less likely to hurt anyone. Restore a relative meritocracy.

    I speak of course of “devolution,” where the power is forced to be pushed down as locally as possible, as the central power is put in traction, discredited, bankrupted, and without reach. Why? Because that’s American Law for one, but also that further down gives the people the most autonomy, independence, and leverage, but also when things go bad, you see them quickly, try +50 or 3,142 different things, and also have consequences and adjustments on those plans, rules, and attempts. That is, immediate consequences for failure, that show up quick enough to correct course.

    Again, the joy of this is that a) it’s been tested and it works, and b) it’s already Federal law that is being illegally suspended. So it’s the easy legal, cultural path to a pattern that has a long history of (messy) success. Unlike say, Socialism, Green New Deal, Carbon Credits, Build Back Better or something.

    Southwest CEO Says No Employees Will Be Fired Over Vaccine Mandate (AmG)”

    Uh, what? If they can work and not get fired, it’s not a mandate, it’s a suggestion. Now being in raw violation of Texas state law, the CEO was like “We had no CHOICE but to follow the non-passed, non-legal, non-mandate Biden (didn’t) create!” But Texas gave them the SAME mandate, only the opposite direction, but this one he DOESN’T have to follow? Hmmm. Sounds like you DO want it, a lot, and wouldn’t lift a finger – oh wait, are stampeding Patton’s Third Army in support of committing open war crimes and ending human rights. And another add-in. He says “I didn’t want the mandates anyway.” But you proactively scripted, published, and enforced them? Long, long before OSHA did? And who was talking about mandates? We were asking about that weird weather that seems to only affect SouthWest planes. Nobody was talking Mandates, because according to you, there is no walk-out, no strike, no problem. Just an act of God, of weather, a person like you could have no effect over.

    Translation: Lies, lies, lies, lies, lies, lies, lies, lies, lies, lies, lies, lies, lies, lies. So many lies. All the lies. Then we lie about the lies.

    “Chicago Police Union Head Urges Cops to Defy Vaccine Mandate (AP)”

    It’s good, probably winning, to see the Police here, but also THERE IS NO MANDATE. Just Biden flappin’ his gums with a press release. Even if OSHA says so, THERE IS NO MANDATE, because it’s easily disputed in court, supporting Nuremberg, and with NO FDA APPROVAL.

    Even if all that is supported, THERE IS NO MANDATE, because you have bodily sovereignty and human rights given to you by your Creator. Not government. The government is your slave, not your master. Get with it. If your slave back-talks you, destroy it utterly. This is your contract, and that contract says it is “Your right, your Duty“. One of us seems to be following that contract, and one of us isn’t.

    “Vaccine Mandate Challenges Falter, Judges Shrug at Natural Immunity (JTN)”

    Of course some courts also supported it, but this is why you have Natural Law and Human Rights given to you by God, not government. You have veto power. Use it. Courts ALWAYS side with the government and vicious authoritarianism, it’s who they are. They, like all other public servants, need to be terrified of you and brought to heel so they can DO THEIR JOBS correctly, according to Federal Law supporting the rights of man.

    “The Hidden $150 Trillion Agenda Behind The Climate Change “Crusade” (ZH)”

    It’s hard to explain this scam in brief, but each debt-based fiat system has a shelf life. To extend it, you need to go up a level, as the US$ did by going worldwide reserve currency in 1971. They wanted to trans-national another layer with the SDR but nobody’s buying it. So as far back as 1930s, the Technocrats wanted to have an inescapable, worldwide BTU currency, PLUS visibility and control over all goods and services in the economy in real time. Because they’re so smart, they’d know how to get every bolt and Dorito to every human on-time, instantly, with no disruptions. …You know like shutting off your car charger all day and stopping your washing machine mid-cycle with their smart grid. To do that, they needed a 50-year initiative of universal hand-held computers with all activity on the net, and they paid trillions to get it.

    This BTU or “Carbon Credit” plus the 1984/Brave New World (Free Soma!) would solve THEIR problems and allow the system of control to go up a level, extending its life. And given enough violent, oppressive, Soviet fascism, perhaps that boot stomping on a human face forever. #Winning!

    So once in the 70s they realized there would be a cold cycle, stopping food and toppling governments, they realized population control was their only hope of survival, and put into place a wide variety of factors, including abortion and ravaging Africa. However, this didn’t slow population much, a few billion at most. As widely advertised and lauded by all good intelligentsia, they needed to actively kill, oh, a couple billion new people, obviously the stupid and naughty ones who don’t do as they’re told. So they set up the “Global Warming” setup, to get the CO2 credits in that would save their skinny white hinies. By arranging shutdown of life-giving energy and a complete system-wide fragility “nobody coulda seen coming”. As every prediction failed, they re-launched “Warming” as “Climate Change”, as a new brand but also in anticipation of the upcoming cooling. When that failed, they were running out of time. The economy broke on schedule, was duct taped, then broke again with $1T/night bailouts, and desperately needed a load-shedding or it would rupture at the seams in broad daylight, with no cover story such as the much-planned and desired world war. …And Then a Miracle Happened.

    A disease killed half a million vitamin-D depleted people and spread worldwide, somehow identical to the Event 201 the self-same billionaires who promoted population control had funded. However, this disease was a squib, killing merely 0.03% of the population, mostly near-dead already, and fewer in a enormous swath of Africa and S.E. Asia. They then started the forced vaccines for a disease that spares 99.997% of healthy people. No comment.

    But the point is, what are they doing? Golly gee, EVERY thing that happens, left, right, up, down, the answer somehow is miraculously the same! It’s a Technocratic dictatorship, money for billionaires, end of nations and human rights, and lots of dead humans! Hot, cold, prosperity, depression, no matter what happens, the prescription is always, amazingly identical. More power and money to the rich, more death and disorder to the poor. Funny ol’ world.

    So seeing this AGAIN repackaged as somehow real, relevant, functional, is getting really boring at this point and it’s making me cross. AS IF these guys gave a damn about Covid or anything else after paying and promoting million-dollar book deals, Presidential runs, for stuffing a couple hundred thou’ in nursing homes, NO doctors or nurses, NO sanatorium model, NO use of the Army, NO medical production and backfilling such as drugs and masks, NO attempts at therapy, and NO medical curiosity any ANY place about ANY thing that saves lives. While all the Bureaucrats and Insurance adjusters make six figures working from home, firing nurses and doctors with natural immunity. …So why am I 100x safer in Congo and Uttar Predesh again? Anyone, anyone, Beuller? Why do cases and deaths rise sharply everywhere vaccines are distributed?

    There is neither a Climate Change, nor a Covid crusade. Only the same pinheads running the same scams that keep them in power. Boring, useless, and small.

    Yesterday: Why would we have “business” or “corporations” in Capitalism? That’s silly. There were no corporations for a thousand years in Capitalism, as governments rightly assessed that a Dutch East India company would undermine the government. Such corporations essentially didn’t exist even under Madison – you needed a specific charter for a business license, which were given, but not commonly, and actively dissolved once they built that bridge or road. And again, the idea of “Capitalism” doesn’t mean we have no military, justice system, religion, or culture. Fraud is still fraud, manslaughter is still manslaughter. What you’re talking about is CORRUPTION, which we’re all against. And when the “capitalism” in whatever form — corporation, Feudal lords – take over government, then you don’t have capitalism, anymore than when Stalin takes over all Russian functions, he installed “communism”. I mean, it’s by very definition. Q: Can capitalism BE the merger of state and corporation, by definition? I would argue no. The Left seems to argue yes for some reason, being allergic to dictionaries and sound definitions.

    That’s okay, the older I get the more I see that words have a great variety of meanings, wider than they should and leading to broad problems and misunderstandings, but we would need to define what we mean in order to have any meaningful discussions.

    Speaking of merger of corporation and state, does this make any sense? “Supply Chain Disruptions Force White House To Ask Walmart, UPS, FedEx To Increase Output” Well either he’s a moron who doesn’t understand how profit motive works, or he’s admitting this is no longer a capitalist system, and the White House is both a) in control of and b) has extensive influence over all private functions and behavior, rules and directions of the economy. Which would be Socialism or Fascism, neither of which is freedom.

    “Now A US Govt Official Is Telling Us That Supply Chain Nightmares Could Potentially Last For “Years”

    Why would this be? Is there no capitalism, no competition, no PERMISSION for people to be rewarded by providing what the economy – i.e. their fellow men – want and need? No? Monopoly enshrined? Competition outlawed? Initiative hamstrung by rules, regulations, requirements, OSHA, Obamacare, Audits, leading to universal shortages, “Misery spread widely”? Golly gee, Virginia, who knew? Knock it off, this terrible, ridiculous, counterproductive, and incidentally, COMPLETELY ILLEGAL behavior (under our Covenant, the Constitution) and Poof! Magic! People make stuff! Supply chain fills! Jobs restored! Prosperity returns! Everywhere it’s been tried.

    Biden is saying NO. HE is issuing the orders. HE is in control of the entire economy, and like Lenin, stays up night, pushing little tin figurines around the warboard, making every human decision nationwide, getting it just right. Like Powell! Zero inflation and Full employment! Not failing at all!

    Say, what Article or Amendment gives the Federal government the jurisdiction over controlling the whole economy? Must have missed that one.

    “Artificial Tyranny” was the title of yesterday’s news blog, which added some story links to the essay you saw here.
    https://www.johndayblog.com/2021/10/artificial-tyranny-project.html

    I got a visit and a letter after work yesterday that I am still being fired at the end of the month, but not for failure to accept COVID vaccination, but rather for my bad behavior since the mandate was announced at the clinic. In July, I had been much better, and was given the maximum 5% merit raise.

    Yes, I’m being kind of snarky. Positions are clear. I will be paid my PTO as discharge, and my modest retirement is mine.
    This is actualy all for the best. It seems to be particularly grating that I have been telling people who recovered from COVID to avoid vaccination, all risk and no benefit. I tried to talk about the “negative efficacy” in England as time from vaccination progresses, and the efficacy of ivermectin, but that could not be heard.
    What began in 1970 as “The People’s Free Clinic”, and I will part ways for the last time, at the end of this month.
    I discovered yesterday that 3 of the nurses I work closely with, who get a lot done, and have real expertise in the healthcare system, will be leaving in December, handed in their resignations.
    It’s not just me feeling the death of the old spirit.

    Doctors and surgeons need to stand up like John Day and fight against the tyranny. People will be lost but it will be less than if things continue on the way they are currently. Doctors should withdraw their services like the pilots until they they regain their freedom to treat patients. The medical boards are corrupt. The employers are corrupt.

    “Save their white hinies * “

    * By adding carbon taxes to punitively colonize and extract all rural people, like the French Gilet Junes, and all England outside of London, protesting a rise in gas tax that exclusively hits the rural outside of mass transit hot spots, turning them to slavery and abject poverty. Our enemies: the independent, so, Obviously! And the same in the U.S.

    Yes, any worker who does work is really, really pissed. We’re now in a strict class structure where you’re either managerial “technocratic” class, or a deplorable, expendable, to be abused on sight. Jut ’cause. Know your place. Or a palatial Lord, far away. The workers now realize this with work-from-home, and the terrible, unworking failure of these computer systems, where they add an app to alert the police if your mouse stops moving! With a face camera at all times! (not kidding, these exist).

    It’s worse than a pilot strike where you sue for conditions. It’s that anybody who does work says “I’ve had it. I don’t care what happens. I just can’t take it.” Gone Galt, as they say, though they don’t know what that is.

    So I see this all over. And it’s not JUST the money: a lot of (small) places are offering money. It’s worse than that. It’s a matter of TRUST and BELIEF. Even if hired, they don’t BELIEVE you won’t d—k with them, make their lives h—l just for fun, amusement, just ‘cause they’re clueless, don’t care, and you’re just SUPPOSED to kick deplorable workers.

    And even though that COSTS money, it’s not extracting the workers to MAKE money. If only! We could understand that, that would make sense. They are LOSING money by millions, billions, because they are chronically mentally ill and CAN’T STOP CONTROLLING THINGS. Ordering everyone around, most especially when they know nothing and every word breaks more things. They’re mentally-deficient, ill-behaved chimpanzees. When the things break, mentally-deranged managers further up the line applaud their behavior and the loss of mission, money, manpower, and profit. No consequences! How can there be when there’s free money? The dumber and more reckless you are, the freer it is.

    Why would a UPS driver put up with that? F it. He’s the only guy in the whole company doing actual WORK. He can go work elsewhere, at anything.

    So I’m saying widespread loss of BELIEF in the whole system of human interaction. And since they — corporations — LOSE money like a oil-rig fire hose, ANY work does outside that bizarre, irrational system can instantly compete. There are so many intermediaries eating your lunch like termites, even losing ONE is another whole paycheck. Or if not, who cares? They just can’t take it and neither can I.

    “Why do you suppose these electron clouds aggregate in different forms then? Why not one soul per electron shell and elimination of the whole prey/predator dynamic? Why the need for separate beings/bloodlines?
    In scientific inquiry, one attempts to observe and catalog “facts”, from which generalities follow, which, if exceptions are not found, become LAWS.
    Such as NATURAL LAW.
    Another model creates theories based on un-observable phenomena and assumptions which must be taken on faith…from which sweeping conclusions are drawn. Religions are particularly adept at this; the beautiful lie!
    Sadly, this seems to be your model. Other than what you have correctly observed relative to NATURAL LAW…the behavior of the hawk and mouse…your other assumptions are just that…assumptions. So much hoo-hah.
    You reduce the NATURAL LAW and the NATURAL ORDER to the absurd conclusion that the prey lost the “lottery of life”.
    You conclude the hawk had no choice to be other than what it had been conditioned and programmed to be. Why? Because it fits your pre-conditioned expectations. How does your model encompass the idea of growth, mutation and natural selection?
    How do you know that the eating of prey is the ONLY choice the hawk has? HOW DO YOU KNOW THIS? Maybe it is simply the easiest way?
    Using federal reserve notes/fiat is SIMPLE! Easy!
    But can’t willing social participants exchange tangible goods and services between themselves without the use of fiat? Hasn’t that been the norm of human commerce? Could YOU conduct your commerce without fiat? And, if so, they why do YOU choose a medium so clearly destructive to you, your family and your nation?
    Look at post WW1 Germany and see what Hitler was doing…which essentially rebuilt the shattered german economy within 5 years of his taking power.
    In my travels, I often am amazed at the sharp diving lines in urban areas between the haves and have nots. What compels the have nots to stay where they are?

    Humans are notorious for making bad choices and blaming others, fate, the government or whomever for the sorry state of their condition. Look at the fast food industry growth and the rise in health care costs. HFCS, Pharma, vaccines and so many others…and yet stupid humans just keep marching to the same tired beat.


    “The pharmaceutical industry is very large and powerful, and exists as a middleman of sorts between humans and their natural remedies.
    Unfortunately for humans, these pharma are profit based first and foremost.
    Remedies to every issue facing humans can be found in NATURAL LAW, including health related. It is up to the human to choose direct participation…or farm out these needs to a party with clearly vested interests!
    Another great example of FREE WILL!

    Someone posted a short video of a driver who refused to answer even the most basic questions when stopped at a Driving While Intoxicated checkpoint. Of course, under the US Constitution such stops without PROBABLE CAUSE are not legal. Firstly, 9 people out of 10 have not taken the time to read the Constitution, so they do not know their rights and thus do not know what statutory laws apply to them or not.
    So rule one would be to learn the rights accorded to you under the highest applicable law. Example, a township statute cannot trump the Constitutional law.
    Once a person is aware of their RIGHTS and DUTIES under the law, they know what laws and duties apply to them.
    Second, if a demand is made not in compliance with the law, the person MUST refuse the request…ie, exercise their rights under the law. The driver in the example above did just that. After a few minutes of noise, the cop waved the drive through the checkpoint!
    If even 3 out of 10 refused to comply, the checkpoints would come down! Systems of oppression require voluntary compliance! Remember that ratio…30% non compliance kills a voluntary system!

    A golden nugget for those so awake.

Are you willing to cross the border as they do? No? Well then come in like a man, on your feet, BUT be prepared to stand your ground!
    Why do you think the US has passed a “law” stripping the citizen of their Constitutional safeguards?

    @Dr. D — The Rothschild character gave the problem and the solution in 2011. The masses ignored his correct prediction and prescription, and many are suffering the consequences. This is all being done extra-legally ON PURPOSE — it exposes how UNFIT WE ARE to be this STOOPIT! They did teach you that “natural selection” is “natural law,” and “only the ‘fit’ survive,” right? So the STOOPIT are killing themselves off according to that “logic,” right?

    “Dr. David Martin condemns vax-pushing corporate CEOs: They are committing “terrorism” against their own employees”

    One of his points is that the Southwest CEO blatantly and on national TV admitted to committing a crime.

    Watch at start of 17:10 minute mark for the Southwest CEO committing a crime explanation.

    Very well done.

    “Copper plays an essential role in respiration, immune function and free-radical defense. Despite its important action in physiochemical properties, only small amount of copper is presented in biological fluid, none of which presents as free ion form that readily affirms its depletion in critically ill patients.”

    Copper as a potential adjunct therapy for critically ill COVID-19 patients — https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7518164/

    1. “Higher copper is relevant and a factor from the environment of early development of the Rh-‘s.”
    ~Rothschild
    He told you to begin increasing your bio-copper status, BUT YOU WOULDN’T LISTEN!
    2. The term “Blue Blood” refers to the Money Power Monopolist’s BIO-COPPER STATUS IN THEIR BLOOD! In fact, the copper carrying protein, ceruloplasmin, translates into English as… ta da… “BLUE BLOOD!” This is all “hidden” in plain sight.

    BTW, your doctor or nutritionist may never have heard the word copper in all their job specific training. I mean, what does respiration have to do with anything, right? Or immune system… or free-radical defense, given that free-radicals are produced in respiration automatically…
    Oh, ALL THREE ARE CRITICAL IN COVID? Imagine that!
    Ask your doctor what copper does in the human body… **crickets**.
    Now look at the list of bio-copper antagonists…
    1. HFCS blocks copper absorption in the gut, and into the cell.
    2. Glyphosate chelates copper below a pH of 1.0… stomach acid is 2.0, so it can’t break the bond.
    3. NPK fertilizer has no copper.
    4. Excess INORGANIC iron increases oxidative stress, chronic stress stimulates metallothionein, and metallothionein binds up copper so the body can’t use it. Any type of chronic stress does this, hence, stress is so toxic. Iron fortification is a fraud on its face… it is that which is present but not comprehended… and YOU were PUBLICLY warned to pay attention to such things… have YOU IGNORED this warning? Are YOU “FIT” in a world where only the “FIT” get to survive? You were trained to believe that… DO YOU?
    5. Ascorbic acid pulls copper atoms out of ceruloplasmin — copper’s safe transport protein/enzyme. Ascorbic acid deactivates ceruloplasmin-bound copper and reduces its expression as ferro-oxidase. This leads to iron build up in the tissues where it is NOT measured.
    6. Hormone D supplements deplete retinol, and retinoic acid is required to load copper into ceruloplasmin by the ATP7B enzyme (which also needs magnesium, BTW).
    7. Zinc supplements stimulate metallothionein, which binds up copper 1,000x more than zinc (the zinc persists, the copper becomes unusable).

    Note how the counter narrative to Covid relief is a DIRECT ATTACK ON CERULOPLASMIN-BOUND COPPER (AND FERRO-OXIDASE) STATUS!!!

    You have done YOUR homework, right? You aren’t just parroting what others are doing, based on narratives FINANCED INTO SOCIETY by people you don’t even know, right?
    Are such people “FIT” who won’t take PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR EDUCATING THEMSELVES?
    Do the “UNFIT” remove themselves from the gene pool?

    “As far as the “end-of-the-line” scenario, our hands are CLEAN. That seems to be the point you are missing. NATURAL LAW operates under the precepts and conditions of NATURAL LAW….NOT what you or others suppose it is…or bad information you may have received along the way! You need to understand the true nature of things to understand how to conduct your “business”. It’s just that simple!”

    @Oroboros — this exact scenario was predicted, and addressed, by the Rothschild circa 2011. Here is the CORRECT ANSWER…

    “There is no magic light saber, as Bickle might suppose, but there are daily choices each human can make. The success of those implementing such systems resides in the human tendency towards self compliance!
    Someone posted a short video of a driver who refused to answer even the most basic questions when stopped at a Driving While Intoxicated checkpoint. Of course, under the US Constitution such stops without PROBABLE CAUSE are not legal. Firstly, 9 people out of 10 have not taken the time to read the Constitution, so they do not know their rights and thus do not know what statutory laws apply to them or not.
    So rule one would be to learn the rights accorded to you under the highest applicable law. Example, a township statute cannot trump the Constitutional law.
    Once a person is aware of their RIGHTS and DUTIES under the law, they know what laws and duties apply to them.
    Second, if a demand is made not in compliance with the law, the person MUST refuse the request…ie, exercise their rights under the law. The driver in the example above did just that. After a few minutes of noise, the cop waved the drive through the checkpoint!
    If even 3 out of 10 refused to comply, the checkpoints would come down! Systems of oppression require voluntary compliance! Remember that ratio…30% non compliance kills a voluntary system!
    A golden nugget for those so awake.

    Does the Constitution require a passport? Do all of the illegal aliens flooding into the US have the proper paperwork? No? Then why do YOU feel compelled to comply? Are you willing to cross the border as they do? No? Well then come in like a man, on your feet, BUT be prepared to stand your ground!
    Why do you think the US has passed a “law” stripping the citizen of their Constitutional safeguards?
    THIS….standing one’s ground…is where the cowardice of most good citizens falls to pieces. They are under the delusion that obeying whatever crazy “laws” are implemented must be obeyed!
    Sorry to be in that situation!”

    WHY did this Rothschild say this in 2011? Because he KNEW what was planned then, and is HAPPENING NOW.
    His PRESCRIPTION IS EXACTLY CORRECT, BTW…

    “This is the ERA of the BIG EVENT. Global spectacles where all will be watching, and to some degree, invested. The 9/11 show garnered the sympathy of many of the world’s population…later to be lost, of course. Watch for similar BIG EVENTS coming to a neighborhood near you!”

    BTW, do you see how he alludes to WHOM is responsible for financing 9/11? The Money Power Monopolists themselves! This has been obvious forever, but the masses can’t grasp the simple concepts related to money. They are vexxed by mon-eye… perhaps it is their ego driven pathological money-seeking that blinds them to the obvious.

    How do you like this Big Event that came to a “neighborhood near you”?

    @Orobos — We live in a Money Power Monopolist Mega-Corporate Orwellian Fascist Global Empire. Everything else is a “Matrix spoon” — it ONLY exists in your imagination.
    Why does a fascist mega-corporate head carry the false narrative for the fascist government official?
    Because BOTH were financed into position by the Money Power Families, and BOTH are working to promote the Money Power Familial AGENDA.
    This is why admitting to a crime is no big deal — crimes in accord with Money Power Agendas are NOT prosecuted. Ask Trump and Hellary about that.
    Alex Jones did an interview with the late Aaron Russo. It is worth the watch on Youtube. Russo was told by Nick Rockefeller that if he joined the CFR, he would be given a Kiss My *ss card. In other words, laws would not apply to him — he got special privileges insofar as he was doing the bidding of the Money Power Family financed Council on Foreign Relations.
    The Money Power Families are making a huge move. THEY’VE TOLD YOU WHAT THAT MOVE IS, BUT YOU’VE NOT PUT THE EFFORT INTO LEARNING WHAT IT IS. I’ve posted a link to their 2011 disclosure.
    Have you read it? Would you like to discuss information he brings up?

    In this cohort study, family members without immunity had a 45% to 97% lower risk of contracting COVID-19 as the number of immune family members increased. Vaccination is a key strategy for decreasing the transmission of the virus within families.

    The Spirit Moves https://www.johndayblog.com/2021/10/the-spirit-moves.html

    Yesterday at clinic, while I was finishing work at my desk, the Medical Director, a good guy, who I have known for 15 years, came by with an envelope.
    I anticipated that the clinic would need to side with federal payments over a state order against vaccine mandates. That’s the case. Some uncertainty has been inserted into the system by Governor Abbot’s order. There is a bill in the legislature to bolster that. We will see how it fares.

    I was dismayed that the position of the clinic administration is that I am being fired for cause, other than refusing to accept mandatory experimental vaccination.
    The last 7 weeks, since the clinic announced the mandate, and I made my position clear, that I must stand with the under-class of un-vaccinated, has had more discord.
    I was told that I must stop prescribing ivermectin-based treatment for COVID, with any link to the clinic, after over a year of doing so, and to good effect.
    I was written up for prescribing ivermectin based treatment to the 17 year old son of a coworker, without an office visit, or writing it up in documentation.
    That was true. I have prescribed for staff and some family members since spring 2020, and have maintained my open offer to do so.

    I have continued to advise patients who have recovered from COVID against receiving vaccination, on the grounds of all-risk-and-no-benefit. I have discussed the shifting risk profiles where the vaccinated become more prone to catch COVID than the unvaccinated (Public Health England data is especially clear.)
    This comes as the clinic is ramping up vaccine events, and is vaccinating children whenever parents will consent.

    My approach to treatment of each patient, using my best judgment and giving my best medical advice, has become directly at odds with the policies of the clinic, lately a Federally Qualified Health Center. The clinic follows recommendations, policies, and incentives (for vaccinations), which come from the federal government.
    It is appropriate that the clinic and I part ways, if we cannot share the same approach to patient care.
    It is apparent that we cannot.

    Of course I feel personally wronged in this, but there is not much to be done for this progression of the organization.
    I was once mainstream. I’m about the same as I was then.
    It has been awhile, and the change has been gradual, and not brought to a crisis until now. I am not the only one departing soon. Yesterday three competent people told me they had handed in their resignations for November and December. I already knew of another. These are people who accomplish critical tasks.
    I know there are others who are now keeping their eyes out for jobs elsewhere. The first four are leaving with no new job, “taking some time off”.

    This is my small world experience. There are a few in the hallway who glare and will not meet my eyes since I sent out the email last month likening the unvaccinated now to the Jews in WW-2 Germany. I sought to explain my sincere position of standing with the underclass, but it was not something that some people could consider.
    I was reprimanded, and twice disparaged in administrative emails for my communication.
    I was asked not to respond to those reprimands, and I had no intention to do so. I only wanted to explain my position once.
    I had explained.

    Today I have a few stories about how this is playing across America, as people of conscience say “No” and stand their ground.
    I have no predictions how this will play out, or how long it will be in play, but the people who are firm in their convictions are an important sampling of society.
    These people are able to make decisions and take action upon them. That’s not universal these days. That’s actually a talent-pool.

    ​ ​The top Catholic official in the US military has declared that soldiers have the right to opt out of Covid vaccine mandates on the basis of “conscience,” after some branches were accused of trying to discourage such exemptions.
    ​ ​In a statement issued on Tuesday, Timothy Broglio – Archbishop for the Roman Catholic Archdiocese for Military Services in the US – argued that while the Vatican has determined that none of the Covid-19 vaccines in use are inherently wrong due to a tangential link to aborted fetal cells, soldiers still have the right to decline the vaccine if they believe it would “violate [their] conscience” for whatever reason.
    ​ ​“Notwithstanding the moral permissibility of these vaccines, the Church treasures her teaching on the sanctity of conscience,” Broglio wrote. “Accordingly, no one should be forced to receive a Covid-19 vaccine if it would violate the sanctity of his or her conscience.”

    These are large numbers. Over 10 million job openings and 6 million hires and 6 million “separations,” i.e. layoffs and the 4.3 million voluntary quits.
    ​ ​The happy story promoted by the corporate media is that this enormous churn is the result of shiny, happy people moving up the work food chain to better paying jobs. We know we’re close to the moment when Everything Solid Melts into Air when every breakdown is instantly reworked into a happy story in which everything is getting better every day, in every way.
    ​ ​The reality nobody in power wants to acknowledge, much less address, is that millions of workers are opting out or burning out and they’re not coming back.

    The Hill vid from germ regarding European protests…
    Isn’t it obvious why there aren’t huge protests in US? Except in NY and LA, there are very few restrictions. Right now, there are rumbles. Those affected by mandates are scrambling to get their houses in order, asking for exemptions or using up their PTO, planning for their families after they no longer have a paycheck from their jobs. They may be eying what is going on, preparing for shortages — we stocked up on pet food last night, as it would be distressing to look these furry and feathered dependents in the eyes and not have food for their bellies.

    The protests in the US are going to happen after many have lost or been furloughed from their jobs, and have the time to protest.

    I hope.

    Well…supposedly it only takes a little over 3% in the streets to effect change, because with over 3% in the street there is a much larger percentage who are discontented, and will support the change advocated by the over 3%. The discontented who “won’t do anything”…as long as they also do nothing to further the agendas of the tyrants, it may be enough.

    I hope.

    Feeling very uneasy about the tyranny. Trying to see a viable path forward. TX governor is standing up, asking the TX legislature to back him. Will AZ governor follow suit? Will AZ legislature pull their heads out of their a$$es and redo the legislation regarding Covid that was nullified because they violated AZ law by slipping it into unrelated pieces of legislation? Can the measures pass on their own? If the AZ governor and legislature provide “cover” for the discontented populace, the populace won’t need to protest…instead they can simply have rallies to support elected state leaders.

    Below is what I think the near term time-line looks like in the U.S. and would appreciate anyone’s additions or edits. Bottom line, things go off the rails around December.

    1. Layoffs and firings will accelerate into December, largely due to the existing federal contractor mandate that has a Dec. 8th deadline. While OSHA hasn’t released rules for the rest of us, these will likely add to the number of unemployed. Additionally, think of those that leave willingly (e.g. early retirement) knowing that the mass reduction in force will make their job satisfaction tank.

    2. Inflation continues to increase as we are seeing a lack of goods, not just too much money chasing things. Food and energy will particularly increase as we head into winter. We are already seeing this and there isnt additional supply to come online, so situation will get worse.

    3. Supply chains will continue to deteriorate as there are few truckers, people working in warehouses, etc. Add rising fuel costs and many must have goods will just become unavailable, despite the price.

    4. Deaths in September were around 5x what we saw in the same period a year ago. December is when we start to see the peak of seasonal colds, so expect December’s numbers to be off the charts with mass hysteria following. This will add to the other issues as fewer people working (sick or sheltering at home).

    All of these seem to me to feed each other, creating a cascading event. I think the logical move by .gov will be to issue a passport here in the US as this will (temporarily) solve several problems; 1) keeps the narrative going that all of our misfortune is from the unvaxxed; 2) takes some pressure off of the supply chain as unvaxxed wont be allowed to shop, so less demand for goods; and 3) facilitates a roll-out of the booster program. Passport expires within x months of your last shot, get the booster or no passport enabled privileges.

    Thoughts? Its pretty dark, though ithink that is our reality. Anything additional that would fit in here? Any suggestions for best steps to take now to prepare?

    Regarding painting Children Playing…
    I find it significant the number of people depicted wearing blue clothing. Indigo dye was very costly in 1560. It was my understanding that blue clothing was pretty hard to come by for those not of noble birth or in a wealthy merchant family. The other prominent color of clothing is a strong red — red was not as hard to come by as blue, but getting a brilliant red hue would take a lot of dye — especially using natural dyes.
    So then I start to wonder, what statement was Bruegel the elder making when he chose those colors?

    John Day,

    I appreciate your situation. I have a similar experience in my past, having joined a young organization as a professional in my field and helped it to grow over decades. Then the organization became something that it wasn’t at the beginning, leaving me so to speak. When you refuse to change or hide who you are authoritarian management naturally must expel you.

    It is natural for you to be constantly processing the details at first, but that fades as you find your new path. Whatever that is, it will be yours. You’ll never regret your own path.

    Just my 2c.
