@DrEliDavid: After vaccinating over 85% of its population, Singapore finally flattened the curve, but along the wrong axis:

 

 

“..that vaccination of youngsters and children will provide them with improved protection from contracting severe disease is a textbook example of scientific nonsense..”

The Unforgivable Sin (VanDen Bossche)

One wonders how it is possible that while it has now been reported that vaccinated shed and transmit as much virus as unvaccinated people (1), the vaccinated are still protected against severe disease whereas the unvaccinated are said to be unprotected. So, how can one explain that viral shedding and transmission and hence, viral replication no longer seem to be impacted by the vaccine whereas the opposite still applies to the occurrence of (severe) disease? Based on their study results, the authors from the above-mentioned report (1) conclude that there is no significant difference in viral load between groups of vaccinated and unvaccinated, asymptomatic and symptomatic people who became infected with SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant. So, again: Considering that vaccinees shed and transmit as much virus as unvaccinated people, how could one even postulate that unvaccinated people are susceptible to severe disease whereas vaccinees are still largely protected from severe disease? Frankly speaking, this doesn’t make any sense at all.

[..] As the mechanism of immune defense in vaccinees is totally different from the one at play in unvaccinated individuals, the mantra of mass vaccination stakeholders that vaccination of youngsters and children will provide them with improved protection from contracting severe disease is a textbook example of scientific nonsense. Their irrational, erroneous extrapolations lead people to believe that they should get their children vaccinated whereas there is barely any more catastrophic immune intervention one could think of. In line with the intrinsic functional properties of innate, multi-specific Abs, healthy children and youngsters are NOT ‘naturally’ susceptible to any Sars-CoV-2 lineage but exclusively acquire such susceptibility as a direct consequence of functional suppression of their well-established innate immune capacity due to a rapid re-exposure event or, even much worse and long-lived, due to vaccination.

The likelihood of rapid re-exposure to Sars-CoV-2 after previous infection dramatically increases when highly infectious variants expand in prevalence. Such an expansion in prevalence directly results from mass vaccination campaigns as mass vaccination turns vaccinees into an excellent breeding ground for naturally selected S-directed immune escape variants. So, unless there is any contradiction in the above reasoning and unless somebody could explain how similar viral replication and transmission dynamics in vaccinated as compared to unvaccinated individuals could lead to dissimilar clinical manifestations of infection, we can only conclude that the scenario is the following: Vaccination of children and youngsters is turning off their broadly protective innate immunity in exchange for S-specific vaccinal Abs that are becoming increasingly useless since their neutralizing capacity becomes more and more eroded as a result of enhanced escape of Sars-CoV-2 from neutralizing Abs [NAbs] (a trend that has been clearly confirmed by molecular epidemiologists (8)).

Resistance to the neutralizing effect of vaccinal Abs that are nevertheless still able to bind Sars-CoV-2 virions and thereby outcompete protective innate Abs is likely to enhance the susceptibility of vaccinees to ADE (Ab-dependent enhancement of disease). Unless virology and immunology are being rewritten, I cannot imagine how mass vaccination of our youngsters and children will not lead to an even more disastrous outcome of all the scientifically irrational and unjustifiable vaccination efforts. Not only will this dramatically increase the children’s risk to succumb to (accelerated) Covid-19 disease but it will also take away the highly efficient capacity of healthy, unvaccinated people to diminish the dangerous, ever rising viral infectious pressure in the population.

From a study into substance abuse.

All You Need To Know About Vaccine Failure In One Incredible Chart (Berenson)

This study was large and well-conducted. It used a database that covers 85 million Americans in 63 health-care organizations. It was published Oct. 5 in World Psychiatry, a peer-reviewed journal. People were included if they’d had no Covid infection before vaccination and had been “fully vaccinated” – that is, 14 days after the second dose. The researchers wound up examining medical records of about 580,000 Americans, 30,000 with a substance use disorder, 550,000 without. They found that just over 7 percent of people with a use disorder wound up with a breakthrough infection between January and August, compared to 3.6 percent of those without. Okay. Set aside the small group of users and focus only on the 550,000 people in the non-using group. They had a 3.6 percent chance of infection for fully vaccinated people over eight months, January to August.


But eight months is really about four months. Why? These are BREAKTHROUGH infections, and the average vaccinated American was not “fully” vaccinated until mid-April. (Remember, too, that “breakthrough” infections do not include the two weeks after the first dose, when vaccine efficacy is somewhere between zero and negative.) So 1 in 28 “fully vaccinated” people was infected over the four months when the vaccines were at peak effectiveness. Because vaccines work! — But story gets worse. Much worse. The researchers stratified the risk of infection by month, January through August. Here’s that chart – for the 550,000 people WITHOUT a substance use disorder, in other words the vast majority of the sample.


Time trend of incidence rates (cases/person-day) of breakthrough COVID-19 infection in patients with and without substance use disorder (SUD)

The rate of breakthrough infections rose FIVE-FOLD between July and August (and roughly 20-fold from March to August). By the way, the scale here represents the rate of breakthrough infections PER DAY. In other words, in August, those 550,000 fully vaccinated people had a roughly 1 in 200 chance of being infected each day. (Which translates into about a 7 percent chance for the month, which doesn’t match the 3.6 percent total infection rate for this group for the entire time period. It is possible the data does not cover the entire month. Nonetheless the trend could not be clearer.) As the researchers explained: A similar trend was observed in the non-SUD population: the rate of breakthrough infection steadily increased from 0 cases/person-day in January 2021 to 0.0009 cases/person-day in June 2021, and then reached 0.0049 cases/person-day in August 2021 (5.4 times faster than in June 2021)


It is simply impossible to argue about vaccine failure any more. Whether it’s because of the Delta variant, waning antibodies, or some combination, the vaccines simply don’t provide infection (and thus transmission) protection. The only studies that show anything like 80 or 90 percent protection after a few months are those the companies have funded. Maybe they provide some protection against serious cases – hospitalizations and deaths – for longer, but we don’t know how long, and that efficacy declines too.

There is no mandate, and there are no FDA approved shots available -in America. It’s a curious game.

Joe Biden’s Vaccine Mandate Doesn’t Exist. It’s Just A Press Release (Fed.)

Yes, we’ve heard all about Joe Biden’s alleged vaccine mandate for private companies employing 100 or more people. It was all over the news even before he announced it on September 9. His announcement has jeopardized the employment of millions of Americans and increased worker shortages in critical domains such as health care. There’s only one problem. It’s all a mirage. Biden’s so-called vaccine mandate doesn’t exist — at least, not yet. So far, all we have is his press conference and other such made-for-media huff-puffing. No such rule even claiming to be legally binding has been issued yet.

That’s why nearly two dozen Republican attorneys general who have publicly voiced their opposition to the clearly unconstitutional and illegal mandate haven’t yet filed suit against it, the Office of the Indiana Attorney General confirmed for me. There is no mandate to haul into court. And that may be part of the plan. According to several sources, so far it appears no such mandate has been sent to the White House’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs yet for approval. The White House, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and the Department of Labor haven’t released any official guidance for the alleged mandate. There is no executive order. There’s nothing but press statements.

Despite what you may have been falsely led to believe by the media fantasy projection machine, press statements have exactly zero legal authority. “There is nothing there yet that gives employers any mandate,” Stephanie McFarland, spokeswoman for the Indiana Occupational Safety and Health Administration, told me Oct. 6. “The president made an announcement on this asking OSHA to do it, but we’ve not yet seen anything come from it yet,” she also said. When the state agency gets any further information, she said, they’ll review it. To impose the public perception of a mandate, the Biden administration is following an unusual rule-making process it also employed earlier this year, called an emergency temporary standard (ETS).

The spring ETS rule took nearly six months to issue. Meanwhile, companies are telling reporters their vaccine mandates will have at the latest December deadlines. (For those who can’t calendar, that’s four months after Biden’s non-existent mandate was proclaimed. According to OSHA, an ETS takes up to six months to go into effect after the initial mandate is issued in the Federal Register — which, again, for the proclaimed 100-employee mandate hasn’t happened yet.) Lawyers for big business were blunt about their love for this mandate mirage: “Everybody loves this cover,” Minneapolis employment lawyer Kate Bischoff told Bloomberg Law in September. “Many were already looking down the road at doing this, but the fact that they get to blame Biden is like manna from heaven.”

“The FDA did a bait and switch by announcing it approved its “first COVID-19 vaccine” in order to push the “vaccine” mandates and protect the Pfizer pharmaceutical company from legal liability. The Pfizer injection, on the other hand, is still considered experimental under U.S. law.”

No FDA-Approved COVID-19 Shots Available (LC)

There are currently no fully FDA-approved licensed COVID shots available. All COVID shots remain under federal Emergency Use Authorization, meaning individuals have the “option to accept or refuse” the product. On September 22, 2021, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) sent a follow-up letter to the original approval to Pfizer pharmaceutical company that stated, “having concluded that revising this EUA is appropriate to protect the public health or safety under section 564(g)(2) of the Act, FDA is reissuing the August 23, 2021 letter of authorization in its entirety with revisions incorporated to authorize for emergency use the administration of a single booster dose of COMIRNATY.”

On page 6, footnote 12 of that letter the FDA clearly states, “Although COMIRNATY (COVID-19 Vaccine, mRNA) is approved to prevent COVID-19 in individuals 16 years of age and older, there is not sufficient approved vaccine available for distribution to this population in its entirety at the time of reissuance of this EUA. Additionally, there are no products that are approved to prevent COVID-19 in individuals age 12 through 15, or to provide: an additional dose to the immunocompromised population, or a booster dose to the authorized population described in this EUA”.

On August 23, 2021, the FDA sent an approval letter to Pfizer regarding the BioNTech injection, Comirnaty. The letter states: “Under this license, you are authorized to manufacture the product, COVID-19 Vaccine, mRNA, which is indicated for active immunization to prevent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in individuals 16 years of age and older.” The FDA did a bait and switch by announcing it approved its “first COVID-19 vaccine” in order to push the “vaccine” mandates and protect the Pfizer pharmaceutical company from legal liability. The Pfizer injection, on the other hand, is still considered experimental under U.S. law.

There is a legal difference between products approved under authorization of emergency use (EUA) compared with those the FDA has fully licensed. The FDA issued another letter for the existing Pfizer shots which confirms they are still under EUA, are not fully approved, and has a liability shield. That means people must be told the risks and benefits, and they have the “option to accept or refuse” the product. The federal Emergency Use Authorization law and the FDA, including the FDA Fact Sheet, state unequivocally that each person has the “option to accept or refuse” the shots.

See yesterday, The Vaxx is Dead.

Covid-19 Vaccine Negative Effectiveness As Low As Minus 86% (TE)

The efficacy of all available vaccines combined is as low as – 85.71% within the 40-49 age group, and as high as – 3.4% in the 30-39 age group. This shows that the Covid-19 vaccines are making people more susceptible to catching Covid-19, rather than preventing cases of Covid-19 by the claimed 95%. By combining the numbers provided for all age groups over the age of 30, we have been able to calculate an average vaccine effectiveness of – 47.69%, and we’re definitely seeing this in the number of confirmed cases by vaccination status.


Between week 36 and week 39 of 2021 there were 41,149 confirmed Covid-19 cases in the unvaccinated over 30’s, 14,649 confirmed cases in the partly vaccinated over 30’s, and a frightening 243,373 confirmed cases in the fully vaccinated over 30’s. The new UK Health Security Agency report proves without a shadow of a doubt that the Covid-19 vaccines do not work, and actually make the recipients worse.

No Biden, You’re Wrong (Denninger)

Yesterday Biden scolded us all about how “vax mandates work.” Well, not really. Yes, you might get people who are over-levered (their fault) and unable to erect the middle finger to “comply.” But in doing so you permanently destroyed their willingness to put 100% into their job. Now they are all pissed off, working only to the minimum required to not get fired, they hate their boss, they hate the company, they hate every screaming Karen who wagged their finger at them, they hate Biden and they’d like to see all of them bankrupt, gone, even dead. In today’s tight labor market you can’t replace them either; who are you going to hire? The bong-smoker you paid for a year to sit around and get stoned? How joyous and hopeful is such a person? Are they inclined to spend on luxuries?

Take on more leverage and build businesses, families and prosperity? When you threaten to force them to do whatever you demand again — and again — and again — even at the cost of their own health, money and life? The economic damage from this is permanent. So is firing those who won’t comply. Oh, they’ll go find something else to do — but odds are those independent thinkers are the top 5 or 10% of any organization. Get rid of them and it’s like firing five ordinary people for the one you did. Of course nobody thinks of that, but then again not many people are smart when it comes to this sort of thing. They should be — but they’re not. Never mind the defense contractors. The problem is much worse there. A handful of people are key resources. They leave, the project isn’t deliverable anymore because it can’t be completed and you can’t just go hire a replacement because of necessary security clearances.

It takes a year or more to get a new TS approved. Does that new engineer also need SCI or (god forbid) SAP access for your nice project? That takes even longer. Never mind those who “go along” and play nice-nice with your “mandate”; how sure are you they’re still loyal and not willing to stab the United States in the back? After all you just ****ed them so….. you didn’t think this through very well, did you? What happens when two months after their wife gets jabbed — because you demanded it as she’s on the health insurance plan at the company — she gets breast cancer? Now how loyal is that person? Of course there were the lies. You won’t “get” Covid if you get jabbed, so said Biden. Biden’s own government has analyzed that and found it is not true — of those over 65 as of August 7th 60% of the hospitalized Covid-19 cases were fully vaccinated. It’s almost-certainly higher now. He lied and he knew it. Those who he wants to fire if they won’t follow his dictatorial Mengele-style mandate know it too; many of them see it every day because they’re health-care workers.

“The issue has become so politicized. There are entire groups of employees that are willing to be fired and laid off, rather than get vaccinated.”

Los Angeles County Sheriff Refuses to Enforce Vaccine Mandate (SN)

Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva has refused to enforce a local vaccine mandate, saying he would risk losing up to 10 per cent of his workforce if he did. After his department’s budget was cut by $145.5 million in June 2020, partly as a result of the ‘defund the police’ movement, Villanueva says he already faces losing hundreds of officers. Enforcing COVID vaccine mandates would further cripple the force at a time when homicides have surged 31 per cent in the first six months of 2021 compared to last year. “This is like the worst of two worlds right here, so we have to pick and choose,” said Villanueva, adding that he would lose 5-10 per cent of his staff “overnight” if he enacted the Los Angeles City Council’s mandate, which was passed on Wednesday. “I’m not forcing anyone,” said Villanueva.


“The issue has become so politicized. There are entire groups of employees that are willing to be fired and laid off, rather than get vaccinated.” The mandate, which is one of the strictest in the nation, goes into effect in November 4 and forces anyone wishing to enter bars, restaurants, gyms and other venues to show proof of COVID-19 vaccination or a negative test. It also makes the jab compulsory for city employees, a massive problem given that 24% of the Los Angeles Police Department’s 12,000 employees last month sought religious or medical exemptions to the vaccine mandate. Villanueva’s refusal to enforce the mandate follows his insistence that mask mandates are not “backed by science” and that he wouldn’t be enforcing that either.

“Your “vaccine” makes people sick. Soon, it will be self-evident everywhere that this “vaccine” is just another side of your boutique sickness.”

The Mark of the Beast (Jim Kunstler)

The Covid-19 spell breaks. The beast thought it was a good idea to deprive millions of their livelihoods just to get its way and force them to submit to a medical experiment conceived in the utmost bad faith. You say your “vaccine” is defeating the plague that you schemed to create and beset the world with? We know exactly what you did. We know that most of the people getting sick now are the “vaccinated.” Look what happened in Israel. Too far to see? Look right here in Vermont. Your “vaccine” makes people sick. Soon, it will be self-evident everywhere that this “vaccine” is just another side of your boutique sickness.

Meanwhile, you’ve cleverly destroyed medicine itself by forcing the firings of nurses, doctors, and the people who clean up the hospitals. The people will not forgive you for this reckless and craven stupidity. And, of course, nobody knows the long-term effects of your jabbing spree. Has every vaxed-up person got a controlled demolition underway in their organs and blood vessels? Why are there suddenly a striking number of heart attacks and strokes tallied in Great Britain? Concerning, ya think? They’re counting, at least. In America, we’re not even tracking. This now-sinister enterprise called “The Science” doesn’t really want to see any numbers, and if any happen to come up, its minions like to play games with the math, which can tell any story they want it to.

Suddenly, as if from nowhere an energy crisis is upon us — but you knew it was there all along, or you should have known. Things don’t work well when the fossil fuels get scarce or pricey or have to come from so far away that getting them is beyond your control. When these things happen, everything you need costs more and some things quit working altogether. The EU bureaucrats thought they would force a dozen countries to go “green” by sheer force of will. They thought that blocking the Nordstream 2 pipeline — designed to bring Russian natgas to the West — was a good idea. “Joe Biden’s” first act in office was to shut down the Keystone pipeline. Look now, there’s color in the treetops and the temperatures are falling. That frost on the pumpkin isn’t so charming when there’s also frost inside your windowpanes.

The lights may be going out in your house, but that will finally switch on the light in your brain. You’ve been played. The global economy of interdependent super-systems is breaking apart. It seemed like a good idea at the time when the beast put it together… the Lexus and the Olive Tree and all that reassuring bullshit… and now times have changed. Now the supply lines are choking on their own hyper-complexity as each nation in the global “community” has to contend with its own bad decisions and the fragilities they have exposed. Chinese factories don’t work so well without Australian coal. Here’s an idea: maybe someday Australia will get back to work and learn how to make something with its own coal. (America, are you alert?)

Ottawa Will Ban All Unvaccinated People From Leaving Canada (Ici)

The information went unnoticed. By confirming on Wednesday an announcement already made in the middle of the summer, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his team unveiled some details concerning the compulsory vaccination for civil servants, but also for travelers. Until now, airlines have expected compulsory vaccination for all passengers who board a plane within the country. This measure will be implemented from October 30. But the federal government is preparing to go even further. Starting this fall, no one will be able to leave Canada without being properly vaccinated. Vaccination requirements will apply to all travelers aged 12 and over who are air passengers on domestic, transborder or international flights departing from a Canadian airport.

Extract from a Transport Canada press release: “In an exchange of emails, the Department of Transport confirmed to Radio-Canada that this requirement does indeed apply to all travelers, Canadians or not, who would like to leave the country from Canadian airports. We will invite operators to determine how best to leverage the appropriate tools to implement these requirements for travelers.” “There are already rules and extensive restrictions on travelers entering Canada from abroad , says Sara Johnston, spokesman for the Department of Transport. Indeed, since the beginning of September, only adequately vaccinated tourists can enter Canada. However, temporary workers and foreign students who do not have their two doses of vaccines recognized by Canadian authorities have the right to arrive, but are subject to screening tests and a 14-day quarantine.

As soon as this regulation comes into force, the latter may not be able to leave Canada. A transition period until November 30 will allow travel without being vaccinated, provided they present a negative molecular test for COVID-19 carried out in the 72 hours prior to travel. In addition, Transport Canada promises to issue new directives by that date “concerning travel restrictions for unvaccinated temporary foreign workers or foreign students who wish to take a connecting flight as part of their return trip to Canada.”

“..banned from reading..”

Inventor of mRNA Banned By The New England Journal of Medicine (Hope)

Today, a new level of totalitarianism was reached when Dr. Robert Malone was banned from reading the New England Journal of Medicine. We are accustomed to censorship by YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook; we are accustomed to professionals getting fired for not submitting to vaccination, but this feels different. Dr. Robert Malone discovered in-vitro and in-vivo RNA transfection and invented mRNA platform technology while he was at the Salk Institute in 1988. He is thus, the father of the modern mRNA vaccine technology, and he has spoken out against its recent misuse in the COVID-19 pandemic. Unfortunately, there has been retaliation, more than one would expect in a free society. Here is a level of retribution one would typically find in Russia or China, not in the United States of America. This country used to be the model for free speech.

[..] Now it seems that a recent email from The New England Journal of Medicine has banned Dr. Robert Malone. On October 7, 2021, Dr. Malone reported the following: “For your information, I have now been banned from reading the New England Journal of Medicine. They have blocked my IP address. I wonder how many others have been blocked?” I wonder, was Professor Albert Einstein ever locked out of his office at Princeton? I know that many did not understand the complex equations he wrote, even the sharpest physicists of his day. It was only AFTER real-world experiments such as the total eclipse of the sun in 1919. This eclipse proved his calculation from his Relativity Theory that gravity could bend sunlight. Moreover, it made him a worldwide celebrity.

However, Dr. Malone’s predictions about mRNA vaccine technology have not yet come to pass. When they do, perhaps he too will be accorded the same respect as Einstein. But does the world truly have to await the harsh results? Can’t we be a little bit smarter this time?

“He who pays the piper calls the tune, you know. And if you receive funding from abroad, there are strong reasons to believe you are taking orders from those who pay you.”

Bellingcat Officially Labelled ‘Foreign Agent’ By Moscow (RT)

The Russian Ministry of Justice has included Netherlands-based digital investigations team Bellingcat in a list of ‘foreign agents’ published on Friday, along with journalists working for US state-run media RFERL and the UK’s BBC. In a statement, officials in Moscow confirmed that the organization, founded by British blogger Eliot Higgins in 2014, was among the outlets handed the designation, along with American-owned online current affairs site MNews. Nine individuals were also labelled ‘foreign agents,’ including employees of the Russian arm of the BBC, RFERL, 7×7 and television channel Dozhd. Dozhd, also known as TV Rain, was given the same status as an organization in August. Bellingcat has won a number of awards, in the West, for investigations into a number of issues, including the downing of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 over the east of Ukraine and the alleged poisoning of jailed opposition figure Alexey Navalny.

However, Russian officials insist that the group maintains close ties to Western spy agencies and receives confidential information to form the basis of its revelations. Russia’s foreign intelligence chief Sergey Naryshkin said in August that Bellingcat “is needed to exert pressure either on the country, or on individuals and legal entities.” Bellingcat is funded by the US government, through the National Endowment for Democracy, and reportedly maintains financial ties to the British and Dutch governments, alleging that it reserves its harshest criticism for politically convenient opponents of those nations, most prominently Russia. Others have also claimed that confidential information used by the group as part of their investigations had likely been passed on by Western intelligence agencies in order to publish their narrative without their direct involvement. Bellingcat denies these charges and maintains that it is independent.

Groups handed the ‘foreign agent’ designation are required to include it prominently in their published materials when operating in Russia. Bellingcat, however, has little if any footprint within the country, working through affiliated organizations. While there has been an outcry in recent weeks over a sharp increase in the number of groups and media outlets branded with the status, the Russian government insists that it is a proportionate response to attempts to interfere in the country’s domestic affairs. “If you get money from abroad to partake in domestic political activities – say so explicitly,” Russian President Vladimir Putin has said. “He who pays the piper calls the tune, you know. And if you receive funding from abroad, there are strong reasons to believe you are taking orders from those who pay you.”

Russia Is Not To Blame For Soaring Gas Prices – Merkel (RT)

German Chancellor Angela Merkel has rejected suggestions that the increased price of gas is due to Russian policy. Instead she has pointed the finger at the EU’s own approach asking whether the bloc could have acted differently. Speaking on Wednesday, Merkel noted that Russia has never refused to deliver gas and has fulfilled its contractual obligations. “That’s why we should ask the question: was enough gas ordered, or is the high price at the moment maybe the reason for not ordering so much?” Merkel asked, according to London’s Financial Times. The European Union has sought to move gas trading to the spot market in recent years, whereas Russia has consistently preferred long-term contracts, often as long as 25 years.


Russian President Vladimir Putin has pointed at the reluctance of the bloc to sign longer deals as a cause for rising prices. The view of outgoing Chancellor Merkel was also reflected on Wednesday by Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, who recalled that Russian gas corporation Gazprom is pumping as much gas as it can “within the framework of the existing contracts,” insisting that Moscow is playing no role in the raised prices. In September, a group of around 40 members of the European Parliament called on the EU to investigate Gazprom, alleging that it was abusing its dominant position on the market by deliberately pushing the value up. It was suggested that Moscow is intentionally limiting gas supplies to Europe as a means to speed the launch of the controversial pipeline Nord Stream 2, which was recently completed.

Tesla Move Came After California Legislator Tweeted ‘f-k Elon Musk’ (SFGate)

Tesla CEO Elon Musk confirmed Friday that his company’s move to Texas was, in part, inspired by a California lawmaker’s incendiary tweet to him. The tweet in question? “F—k Elon Musk,” from progressive California Assemblywoman Lorena S. Gonzalez. Musk’s confirmation came in response to a fawning Tesla blog post, claiming that “Musk selflessly tried to resist the actions of the government” by reopening a Fremont factory in violation of Alameda County’s COVID-19 precautions in 2020. For context, Musk sued the county over the stay-at-home order that shut down the company’s factory, and dropped the suit 11 days later.


The Tesla fan blog — headlined “Tesla Moved its HQ to Texas Following Explicit Offer from California Assemblywoman” — calls out Gonzalez for tweeting out an expletive to Musk, saying the tweet “indicates serious problems in the apparatus of the state.” Musk tweeted, in response to the article and its headline, “Exactly.” Gonzalez was nonplussed, tweeting that the CEO “makes too much of his money from taxpayer subsidies in CA to pull out.” This comment is in reference to the fact that Tesla will keep its California factories. “And, yes, he’s still awful,” she added on Twitter. “Worth $200 billion & left his janitors hanging during the pandemic.” She later tweeted screenshots of her being harassed on Twitter and Instagram by Tesla enthusiasts.

    How about when like infants they seriously discuss printing a trillion dollar coin? That’s a red flag if I ever saw one. Geez, if only OTHER nations had thot of that. We’re so Schmartz!

    Maybe so, certainly no one is ever ready, but I don’t think anybody takes civil war lightly but white, suburban, basement dwelling leftists, but if not for Cheeto and Mr. 17 we’d long have been in shooting. Instead of Antifa doing the shooting for us and getting free bail from Madam President. There was a document we wrote on this, maybe you’ve heard of it.

    “Prudence indeed will dictate that Governments should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. – Such has been the patient sufferance of these people.”

    What would they provide?

    “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. –That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.”

    What are those rights?

    “1. Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of a Woke, Science religion, or prohibiting the free exercise of other Christian religions; they shall not abridge the freedom of speech, in person or online, or of the press, even the citizen press, or Australians not residing in the U.S., or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, even when someone says there might be a medical outbreak, and are always allowed to petition the Government for a redress of grievances, even if they are at a PTA meeting, or are soldiers expressing their personal views.

    2. Since a standing Army exists only in times of war, the citizen Militia is necessary to secure a free State, therefore the right of the people to keep and bear such nation-killing military Arms shall not be infringed in any way.

    3. No Soldier shall in time of peace be quartered in any house without the consent of the Owner; nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law. Not even during a pandemic, where all U.S. militarymen, diplomats, and government employees may not be quartered on rental property, or by mortgage for free.

    4. Since people are sovereign in themselves, the state needs procedure and just cause to invade their privacy. Therefore, the right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures shall never be violated, and no Warrants shall issue but upon specific probable cause, supported by public Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the exact place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized, with no resort to fishing expeditions or nation-wide, citizen-wide sweeps and scans of all data, stored forever. Not even if the data is privately collected, for looking at that public data is itself a search.

    5. No witness shall be compelled to testify against themselves, even in cases of treason, or even if their name is Chelsea Manning or Donald Trump, or Jack Posobiec. There is no Civil forfeiture, because there cannot be ANY deprivation of life, liberty, or property without full due process of law; even in the case of firearms, or drugs, even in the case of pandemics, nor shall private property be taken for public use without just compensation, be it property for mall developers, border walls, or services, property and inventory lost due to nationwide shutdowns, or services such as rent.

    6. In all criminal prosecutions, including those of foreign journalists and publishers, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, far less than one year, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed; as the crime must have been previously defined, and they are to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor; and to have the assistance of counsel for his defense. Therefore there are no secret trials, nor secret warrants. Should the State hide evidence, tamper with documents, slow the trial, or attempt spurious and friendly jurisdictions, the trial is forfeit and the accused will be released, even if it’s a special council, OR the FBI serially fabricating things, even if the accused published embarrassing things, or are named Donald Trump.

    Need I go on? Or as to why The Redneck Manifesto: “Come make me”? As in “You and whose Army?”

    Hey boyz, ya only got 13,000 FBI agents. How exactly do you propose to come make oh, let’s say 80 million deeply-armed citizens do f-all for ya? That’s a 6,000:1 Agent-to-redneck ratio. And the FBI is pathetically under-armed.

    Look, nobody wants these things. That’s why we disagree with Antifa and the Left and unlike them, WE say, “Governments should NOT be changed for light and transient causes” that is, NO “revolution”, NO “burn it all down”, but restoration and return to rule of law, and that’s why we “are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right ourselves” …and we proved that for decades, and they know it. It’s their sorest point, as their whole strategy depended on the “Right” being violent, which it isn’t. Or being offensive, not defensive, which it isn’t. …I mean if 30 years you hadn’t noticed, lost between “The New Yorker” and “The Atlantic”.

    However, you do have a nationwide, worldwide situation in search of a spark. That spark could be bad, like a fire, or good, like a galvanizing reaction. There’s only one truism here: they lost. Their position is unsustainable and they will not survive. At all.

    And keeping us innocent as doves, they also seem hell-bent on providing that spark, relighting it if we put it out, fan it wildly if they can find one, inventing many, many sparks in Chicago and Minnesota that aren’t even there. Okay boyz, you who are the impossibly, wildly, ludicrously outnumbered. If you won’t be satisfied except that you tangle with the people on a 6,000:1 ratio some day you might get your deepest wish. Just remember WE DON’T NEED GUNS. We can SIT on you. If each one of us threw in the TIRE IRON next to our Gilet Jaunes you’d be crushed under three tons of steel. We could crush you with the dead flashlights, takeout boxes, and loose change in the seat.

    What am I saying? THE POWER IS IN THE PEOPLE. They maketh government, and they taketh government away, at their leisure. See if they don’t.

    Looking forward to seeing Garland’s PTA Gestapo. Biden’s vax door-to-door died stillborn, before we could even get fun photos of chasing them back down the street where they done come from. We’ll find that his plan is to mouth off uselessly and make a few examples, being unable to carry out any meaningful action in any way.

    So…colleges in BOSTON and Philly are booing unprompted, every day, just for larks? Colleges of DNC men of DNC age in DNC strongholds? Ever heard of Molon labe? Sic semper? The ARMY is against you. The NAVY is against you. The YOUTH are against you, #1 non-compliance. 21 STATES are against you. The states that are FOR you are against you, as Illinois, Georgia, and Michigan are planets of deep red surrounded by one blue dot. Everyone in Upstate NY he says is ignoring all rules and mandates. Jon Stewart, Bill Maher and Nikki Manaj are against you. Who do you think is left FOR you? And the money’s run out.

    Suit yourself boyz. I know you won’t be happy ‘til you do. Am I, or are we, ready? Nobody’s ready, but when has that ever mattered? They’re coming and there is was never any choice for us in the matter. Not in the Anglo-colonial wars of 1770, 1812, 1860, or 1941. We only wanted to be left alone, like the document and contract – covenant really – that we signed above. You just do the good and honorable thing with whatever you have, because that is the fate of true men, to live and die with honor, as men.

    Perhaps you have another way.

    Sad discussion. Don’t care for it that much.

    A comment to yesterday’s “Vaxx is Dead” by praecursator:

    “Was hoping the fellow in the video: My Jaw dropped when I Tested Someone’s Immune System After the 2nd Jab, Dr. Nathan Thompson, was a physician, too! – but he’s a chiropractor: Chiropractor Yorkville IL – Exemplify Health Center .

    Bummer”

    Medical professionals in corp medicine aren’t looking for things like this or they would find it as well (such as the doctor who found elevated d-dimer in his vaxxed patients and was immediately censored).

    There is a REASON why corp med has spent decades outright preventing alternative treatment providers from gaining a foothold. Here in NY, for example, a naturopath can’t be licensed and so can’t order blood tests, prescribe meds, etc. There has even been on/off talk of banning the use of homeopathic remedies altogether.

    It’s getting easier and easier to see why corp medicine worked so hard to squelch alternative treatment providers, isn’t it?

    The chiro requested blood tests. He didn’t PERFORM the tests. Is there some reason why, just because he’s a chiro, the results of the tests are invalid?

    We shouldn’t jump on the corp med bandwagon by dissing alt treatment providers. After this debacle is finally dead and buried they may form the backbone of what we have left of medicine.

    @ Cooch;

    Yesterday, you said to me, “Anyway, the guys I work with are coming up bagel as to the existence of an EO. Here are a couple articles that hilight it’s non existence.”

    I am answering here, since people seldom return to a previous comment thread. I did some research into the executive order and found what I believe is the answer. This will be long, but I wanted to include all the pertinent info for you and your coworkers. I am providing links to my sources. Oh, and for some reason I no longer have formatting options showing up for me to use (so I can’t block-quote) – so I put a row of stars above and below any direct quotes.

    All the stuff below is pertinent to Federal employees and companies that contract with the Federal government. It is NOT the same as the mandate shit for private businesses; OSHA is supposedly in the process of writing mandate rules for them, although so far they have not actually issued anything.

    Biden issued an EO on Sept 9 regarding vaccines for the federal employees, including contractors. This is part of a blurb on the White House website from an article they titled, “Vaccines Requirement Report”:

    *************
    […] Starting in July, the President announced a series of vaccination requirements, including:
    Requiring all federal executive branch employees, including the military, and all federal contractors be fully vaccinated. The President signed an Executive Order to require all federal executive branch workers to be vaccinated and another Executive Order extending this standard to employees of federal contractors. Prior to the President’s Executive Order, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), the Department of Defense (DoD), and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announced requirements for certain employees to be fully vaccinated. The new requirement covers more than 3.5 million people and ensures a consistent standard across the federal government. […]

    https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Vaccination-Requirements-Report.pdf
    *************

    Okay, where is that EO? Well, it is here and it reads in part:

    **************
    Executive Order on Requiring Coronavirus Disease 2019 Vaccination for Federal Employees
    SEPTEMBER 09, 2021

    The health and safety of the Federal workforce, and the health and safety of members of the public with whom they interact, are foundational to the efficiency of the civil service.  I have determined that ensuring the health and safety of the Federal workforce and the efficiency of the civil service requires immediate action to protect the Federal workforce and individuals interacting with the Federal workforce.  It is essential that Federal employees take all available steps to protect themselves and avoid spreading COVID-19 to their co-workers and members of the public.  The CDC has found that the best way to do so is to be vaccinated.

    The Safer Federal Workforce Task Force (Task Force), established by Executive Order 13991 of January 20, 2021 (Protecting the Federal Workforce and Requiring Mask-Wearing), has issued important guidance to protect the Federal workforce and individuals interacting with the Federal workforce.  Agencies have also taken important actions, including in some cases requiring COVID-19 vaccination for members of their workforce.  

    Accordingly, building on these actions, and in light of the public health guidance regarding the most effective and necessary defenses against COVID-19, I have determined that to promote the health and safety of the Federal workforce and the efficiency of the civil service, it is necessary to require COVID-19 vaccination for all Federal employees, subject to such exceptions as required by law.

    Sec. 2.  Mandatory Coronavirus Disease 2019 Vaccination for Federal Employees.  Each agency shall implement, to the extent consistent with applicable law, a program to require COVID-19 vaccination for all of its Federal employees, with exceptions only as required by law.  The Task Force shall issue guidance within 7 days of the date of this order on agency implementation of this requirement for all agencies covered by this order. […]

    https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/presidential-actions/2021/09/09/executive-order-on-requiring-coronavirus-disease-2019-vaccination-for-federal-employees/
    ****************
    You will note that this “executive order” does not really set forth any rules itself, but asks for agencies to implement whatever guidance the “Task Force” comes up with. Biden has done three things here: 1) he has set up a committee to handle the details rather than the administration itself (plausible deniability), 2) provided the mechanism by which whatever the “Task Force” comes up with is automatically incorporated into the above quoted executive order (so he doesn’t have to issue a new EO just to implement the guidelines, which is just laziness on his part), and 3) he has demanded that vaccinations have to be included in those guidelines (which kinda over-rides the plausible deniability he sought with item #1 that I postulated.

    I am used to doing research into the mundane and nit-picky bullshit put out by the federal government, so I knew to persist in my quest for information. It is indeed a daunting task for the uninitiated and one not to be taken lightly. But I sallied forth bravely and found that the Task Force has indeed come up with its guidelines and that they do, in fact, include vaccines for gov’t contractors. As I said, this guidance is, ipso facto, part of Biden’s EO and as such carries the weight of any EO. (EO’s can be overturned by Congress by passing a bill that blocks it, and then the president can veto the bill and then Congress can override the veto, but that is not going to happen here. Congress loves this shit.)

    Okay, so here is the Task Force guidance issued on 13 Sept:

    ***********
    Safer Federal Workforce Task Force
COVID-19 Workplace Safety: Agency Model Safety Principles Last Updated September 13, 2021 (Previously Updated July 29, 2021)
    • Federal Executive Branch employees must be fully vaccinated, except in limited circumstances where an employee is legally entitled to a reasonable accommodation. Agencies must work expeditiously so that their employees are fully vaccinated as quickly as possible and by no later than November 22, 2021. 

    • With the government-wide adoption and implementation of these vaccination requirements, agencies are no longer required to establish a screening testing program for employees or onsite contractor employees who are not fully vaccinated, although they may do so. 

    • The President has announced that Federal contractor employees will be required to be vaccinated. Prior to being contractually required to be vaccinated, onsite contractor employees who are not fully vaccinated and are not part of an agency testing program must provide proof of a negative COVID-19 test from no later than the previous 3 days prior to entry to a Federal building. […]

    Vaccination
    To ensure the safety of the Federal workforce, Federal employees must be fully vaccinated, except in limited circumstances where an employee is legally entitled to a reasonable accommodation. Agencies must work expeditiously so that their employees are fully vaccinated as quickly as possible and by no later than November 22, 2021. […]

    Some contractor employees may not yet be subject to a contractual requirement to be vaccinated, and some visitors may not be fully vaccinated or decline to provide information on their vaccination status. Given the different safety protocols for individuals who are fully vaccinated and those who are not fully vaccinated, agencies need to ask about the vaccination status of visitors to Federal buildings and onsite contractor employees who are not yet contractually required to be vaccinated. Individuals must attest to the truthfulness of the response they provide. When an individual discloses that they are not fully vaccinated or declines to provide information on their vaccination status, agencies should treat that individual as not fully vaccinated for purposes of implementing safety measures, including with respect to mask wearing and physical distancing.

    Onsite contractor employees who are not yet contractually required to be vaccinated and who are not fully vaccinated or who decline to provide information about their vaccination status must provide proof of a negative COVID-19 test from no later than the previous 3 days prior to entry to a Federal building— as noted below, if a contractor employee is regularly tested pursuant to an agency testing program, they do not need to provide proof of a negative COVID-19 test from no later than the previous 3 days prior to entry to a Federal building unless required to by the agency testing program. […]

    ***************
    The above guidance was followed up with more clarification from the Task Force on Sept 24. Also, by the way, they changed the date of vaccine compliance to Dec 8 for contractors (still Nov 22 for regular federal employees). The Federal Acquisition Regulatory (FAR) Council, which had to officially implement the protocols, did so on Sept. 30 with a memo; the memo just says to follow the Task Force guidelines. The new guidance on contractors has this in it:
    *****************
    Safer Federal Workforce Task Force
COVID-19 Workplace Safety: Guidance for Federal Contractors and Subcontractors Issued September 24, 2021
    […]
    Pursuant to this Guidance, and in addition to any requirements or workplace safety protocols that are applicable because a contractor or subcontractor employee is present at a Federal workplace, Federal contractors and subcontractors with a covered contract will be required to conform to the following workplace safety protocols:
    1. COVID-19 vaccination of covered contractor employees, except in limited circumstances where an employee is legally entitled to an accommodation; 
[…]

    Guidance
    Covered contractors are responsible for ensuring that covered contractor employees comply with the workplace safety protocols detailed below […]
    1. Vaccination of covered contractor employees, except in limited circumstances where an employee is legally entitled to an accommodation
    Covered contractors must ensure that all covered contractor employees are fully vaccinated for COVID-19, unless the employee is legally entitled to an accommodation. Covered contractor employees must be fully vaccinated no later than December 8, 2021. […]
    An attestation of vaccination by the covered contractor employee is not an acceptable substitute for documentation of proof of vaccination.

    Q4: Who is responsible for determining if a covered contractor employee must be provided an accommodation because of a disability or because of a sincerely held religious belief, practice, or observance?
    A: A covered contractor may be required to provide an accommodation to contractor employees who communicate to the covered contractor that they are not vaccinated for COVID-19, or that they cannot wear a mask, because of a disability (which would include medical conditions) or because of a sincerely held religious belief, practice, or observance. A covered contractor should review and consider what, if any, accommodation it must offer. The contractor is responsible for considering, and dispositioning, such requests for accommodations regardless of the covered contractor employee’s place of performance. […]

    Q5: Are covered contractor employees who have a prior COVID-19 infection required to be vaccinated?
    A: Yes, covered contractor employees who have had a prior COVID-19 infection are required to be vaccinated.

    Q6: Can a covered contractor accept a recent antibody test from a covered contractor employee to prove vaccination status?
    A: No. A covered contractor cannot accept a recent antibody test from a covered contractor employee to prove vaccination status. […]

    Q11: How does this Guidance apply to covered contractor employees who are authorized under the covered contract to perform work remotely from their residence?
    A: An individual working on a covered contract from their residence is a covered contractor employee, and must comply with the vaccination requirement for covered contractor employees, even if the employee never works at either a covered contractor workplace or Federal workplace during the performance of the contract. […]

    **************
    As I said above somewhere, it appears that this Task Force “guidance” has the weight of an executive order, if only by implication. There is a lot of confusion among contractors about the whole thing and it affects about 80 million people between the federal workforce and the federal contractors. I have no idea how an employer is supposed to decide if an employee’s claim to religious or medical exemption is valid, given that employers are not legally allowed to question an employee about religious beliefs or force them to disclose medical conditions. Whole thing is a boondoggle of a mess with mass confusion running rampant. But it looks like it is “legal” in the sense that it is enshrined in an executive order. The court system may prove that a false assumption, as it has with many executive orders through the years.

    I am sorry this is so long, but I figured you might want to have something to copy (for yourself and/or coworkers) that has all the pertinent quotes and links in one place.

    And sorry to Ilargi, too, for using up so much space on one comment. These mandates demanding an experimental vaccine that doesn’t even work really bug the crap out of me, so I get a tad carried away.

    ‘A Safe Space’: Black Pastors Promote Vaccinations from the Pulpit
    More than 80 percent of adults in New York City have received at least one dose of a Covid vaccine, but there are significant racial disparities.
    If half of what is reported here on TAE about the vaccines is true, those pastors are setting themselves up to lose a significant part of their congregations in the near future.


    First, Vaccines for Covid. Next Up: The Flu.

    Vaccine makers are betting that the mRNA technology powering two successful Covid vaccines will help curb the deadly toll of influenza.

    What is the goal here? To extend the average life expectancy of someone entering a nursing home from the average length of stay before death of 13.7 months to 14 months?

    This data is about 10 years old. Also reports that the median was five months. Fifty-three percent of nursing home residents in the study died within six months. Men died after a median stay of three months, while women died after a median stay of eight months.

    Great if that’s the goal. But don’t be looking at the rest of us to take your jab. Except, they can’t make much money saving the lives of people in nursing homes without charging $10k a shot, which would expose them as the greedy bastards they are.

    Here is the full correction posted at the bottom of the NYT article:

    Correction: Oct. 7, 2021

    An earlier version of this article incorrectly described actions taken by regulators in Sweden and Denmark. They have halted use of the Moderna vaccine in children; they have not begun offering single doses. The article also misstated the number of Covid hospitalizations in U.S. children. It is more than 63,000 from August 2020 to October 2021, not 900,000 since the beginning of the pandemic. In addition, the article misstated the timing of an F.D.A. meeting on authorization of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine for children. It is later this month, not next week.

Yes, we do have packages of work that are tied to programs that are funded by the government. I am obviously not a federal employee or a contracted employee of the government. If I am interpreting this correctly, I simply work for a soulless corporation that is afraid of losing current government programs or jeopardizing future program wins.

    chooch: “I am looking for the estimation of the number of mRNA instructions (spikes) in a jab.”

    A detailed article (linked below), about the “source code” of the mRNA vaccine, has the following information.


    The image above shows the first 500 characters of the Pfizer mRNA sequence. There are 4,284 of these characters in each lipid-coated unit of mRNA.

    “…a single 30 microgram vaccine dose… consists of around 13,000 billion repetitions of the same 4284 characters.”

    This means there are around 13,000 billion (or 13 trillion) lipid-coated mRNA units in one dose. However, each of these 13 trillion mRNA units results in the repeated production of many spike proteins (not just one spike protein per mRNA).
    (How many is “many”? I don’t know, and I can’t find the article I’ve seen which puts a number on it.)

    mRNA can be reused many times” in the body until it gets too degraded. The end of the mRNA sequence has a lot of AAA characters added to slow down this degrading.

    The AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA end of it all

    The very end of mRNA is polyadenylated. This is a fancy way of saying it ends on a lot of AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. Even mRNA has had enough of 2020 it appears.

    mRNA can be reused many times, but as this happens, it also loses some of the A’s at the end. Once the A’s run out, the mRNA is no longer functional and gets discarded. In this way, the ‘poly-A’ tail is protection from degradation.

    Studies have been done to find out what the optimal number of A’s at the end is for mRNA vaccines. I read in the open literature that this peaked at 120 or so.

    The BNT162b2 vaccine ends with:

    ****** ****
    UAGCAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAA AAAAGCAUAU GACUAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAA

    If one dose of the Pfizer vaxx has 13 trillion mRNA units, with each of these mRNA being able to produce “many” spike proteins, then the resulting number of spike proteins produced in the body could outnumber the 30 trillion total number of cells in the human body.

    Scientists have come a long way in estimating the number of cells in the average human body. Most recent estimates put the number of cells at around 30 trillion.

    Holy cow, Doc Robinson, that is mind blowing. And then the thought … isn’t Moderna a higher dose of mRNAs? I think it is …

    Great, thanks Doc, I am working on how many spike proteins can be manufactured in the event ‘let’s say’ a freshly minted immature dendritic cell links up with an LNP in the bloodstream. Given that there is 10 million ribosomes now available to a single mRNA strand, (as you point out) a shed load of spike can be produced by just one cell. This should get interesting.

    @ chooch,

    Ah, I thought you were a federal contractor because you quoted an article about Biden’s EO for federal workers/contractors and said that this was what your company was basing their vaccine mandates on.

    The Biden Task Force EO about federal contractors includes a whole slew of companies that only remotely touch the federal gov’t. Even companies that are sub-contracted to federal contractors are included in this EO. If you are required to visit federal property on a routine basis as part of your job it includes you. If you only rarely have to visit federal property as part of your job, you will be asked to show vaccine papers, a negative Covid test within the last 3 days, and/or have to do the full masking/distancing thing each time you visit. So this EO may affect you or the company you work for in some fashion.

    Here is the part in the Task Force guidelines about visitors, people coming to federal property for meetings and events (this would cover someone who only infrequently needs to be there for work purposes, but isn’t a federal contractor) :
    *************
    […] Visitors to Federal buildings who are not fully vaccinated or who decline to provide information about their vaccination status must provide proof of a negative COVID-19 test from no later than the previous 3 days prior to entry to a Federal building. See the section below on Meetings, Events, and Conferences for how visitor requirements apply to in-person participants in meetings, events, and conferences hosted by agencies.
    These requirements related to the provision of information about vaccination and provision of proof of a recent negative COVID-19 test do not apply to members of the public entering a Federal building or Federal land to obtain a public service or benefit. If they are not fully vaccinated, these visitors must comply with all relevant CDC guidance, including wearing a mask and physically distancing from other people. […]

    If you are in no way connected to the federal workforce at all, then the mandate that WOULD potentially affect you is the one that OSHA is coming up with – and that one doesn’t actually exist yet. (Even so, that one will not include companies with less than 100 employees).

    Below are two articles that do a pretty good job of explaining the various mandates that have been put in place or (in the case of OSHA) are in development. You’ll find that everyone has questions about the whole mess, who it affects, and how companies are supposed to deal with the resulting chaos.

    As to why a private company might go ahead and require vaccines before they have to – well, that is the question, isn’t it?

    upstateNYer: “isn’t Moderna a higher dose of mRNAs?”

    Yes, as I recall each dose of the Moderna has 100 micrograms of mRNA, more than 3 times what’s in a Pfizer dose (30 micrograms). This could be related to why the Scandinavian countries are backing away from Moderna.

    Doc,

    From my notes (Dr. Mobeen Syed)

    1273 amino acids are needed to assemble a spike

    One cellular spike factory can produce 6 amino acids per minute

    One spike is produced every 4 minutes

    Upper limit of 150 million spike proteins for 10 million ribosomes

    Life of spike factory from minutes to days, nobody knows.

    Japanese bio distribution study gives an idea of how many of these factories might be circulating in our blood stream as a function of time.

    Only a fraction of those spikes get expressed on the surface. So do they explode as the factory cell breaks down, getting carried anywhere and everywhere the blood travels painting a cell for eventual T-cell attack?

    If anybody wants to run with this, please do. Other priorities are needing my attention and it will be a bit before I can focus on this.

    teri, That was their statement to us. It appears our company’s seniors are playing loose, so I will call them out on that as part of the exemption I submit. I just want to be sure I am on firm ground as they likely to pick off the low hanging fruit if they are planning to be selective. Sorry, I wasn’t being clear. Thanks

    “Data released Friday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) showed that between Dec. 14, 2020 and Sept. 24, 2021, a total of 752,803 adverse events following COVID vaccines were reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS). The data included a total of 15,937 reports of deaths — an increase of 551 over the previous week.
    “There were 105,758 reports of serious injuries, including deaths, during the same time period — up 6,348 compared with the previous week.
    “Excluding “foreign reports” filed in VAERS, 581,851 adverse events, including 7,215 deaths and 45,952 serious injuries, were reported in the U.S. between Dec. 14, 2020 and Sept. 24, 2021.”

    “As President Joe Biden signed a law funding the treatment of 200-plus US officials who claim to have been affected by so-called Havana Syndrome, German police said they were looking into more possible cases.[…]

    “Meanwhile in Washington, Biden signed into law the Helping American Victims Afflicted by Neurological Attacks (HAVANA) Act, passed unanimously by Congress last month, providing money for the treatment of more than 200 government employees who claim to have been affected by the mystery syndrome.[…]

    ” ‘Civil servants, intelligence officers, diplomats, and military personnel all around the world have been affected by anomalous health incidents,’ Biden said in a statement. ‘Some are struggling with debilitating brain injuries that have curtailed their careers of service to our nation. Addressing these incidents has been a top priority for my administration.’ […]

    “Last month, however, the State Department released a redacted version of the classified 2018 report by JASON, a scientific advisory group, that ruled out microwave or ultrasound energy, saying that the power requirements were prohibitive and pointing out that electronics were not affected. 

    “The JASON report said that a third of the original reports were ‘most likely’ caused by the noise made by a specific species of cricket – a conclusion a US Berkeley scientist reached independently in early 2019 – while others may have been of psychological origin.”

    So-o-o-o, we have a whole new freakin’ law to financially help out the coupla hundred civil servant whackaloons who think the insect noises they hear are some kind of “directed energy” attacks (and naturally we have to call this the Havana law, because you know, Cuba and shit), but the hundreds of thousands who are suffering adverse effects up to and including death from vaccines – we get crickets. (Har, har, crickets, get it?)

    Now they “need” people to die so demand is squelched, preventing hyperinflation. Hence, everyone “needs” to be vaccinated using a “vaccine” that doesn’t work.

    Well done Dr. D.

    Appreciate the ultimate reminder: “THE POWER IS IN THE PEOPLE.” Realizing/actualizing this key IDEA is at the HEART of our reclamation. It starts at the individual level and grows from there. This IDEA is the essential spark.

    Would like to circle back on the Left (DNC)/Right (Cheeto), Red/Blue references. My feeling is that these labels/identities are holding for only the most hard-core, deeply imbedded individuals – who will defend these IDEAS to the end; the philosophy (of the DNC) and the cult (of Trumpers) are the ultimate binders/blinders.

    Let’s giv’m credit: Biden is doing more to illuminate the truth of many matters, his blunt nagging and shaming is a pathetic reminder of how very empty everything really is. The “philosophy” is not holding because it can’t. This is forcing all to see the failures with new insight – and is providing opportunity to wake the Left out of the narrative. I see this disturbing reality-check “reveal” happening (quietly) across my circles of family and friends, in my small town, and with business associates. This is a good thing!

    When we get down to it, the philosophy/DNC and cult/Cheeto are only placeholders, they are NOT the solution. How can they be when they are the strategic manipulations of the TPTB manipulators? See how these “ideas” bind us to false solutions. Nicely done don’t you think?

    Placeholders are not the core IDEA – which is always UNIVERSAL, which is always pure TRUTH. Resonating BEYOND labels. The spark of all sparks. THE POWER IS IN THE PEOPLE.

    Choose. Choose wisely. LOVE to All.

    But hey, “Biden is a wanker and wears a wanker’s hat”. It’s going to be awhile before I purge that one from my memory. Damn you Polder (with fist in the air)

    From the Van Den Bossche piece:

    Considering that vaccinees shed and transmit as much virus as unvaccinated people, how could one even postulate that unvaccinated people are susceptible to severe disease whereas vaccinees are still largely protected from severe disease? Frankly speaking, this doesn’t make any sense at all.

    This actually does make sense to me. For a vaccinated person, if they get Covid (while the vaccine still works and with the right variant) it can multiply in their respiratory lining but once it crosses into the blood stream the spike protein antibodies would keep it from doing major damage. So they would have a sizable viral load and be able to infect others but wouldn’t suffer the worst effects themselves. Maybe one of our resident doctors can comment on whether this is true or if there is a problem with this analysis.
    And to be clear, it still appears to me that the vaccine causes immediate and long term harm and that staying healthy plus vitamin D, zinc, etc. are the best way to go for most of us unless we get a more traditional and well tested vaccine which would be years away.

    DarkMatter,

    Nearly everyone was not at risk of a serious inflection in the first place. For those that were, most or them would have been spared hospitalization and death with access to very affordable therapeutics. The injections are worthless and damage the immune system.

    “However, in the case of the Delta variant, neutralizing antibodies have a decreased affinity for the spike protein, whereas facilitating antibodies display a strikingly increased affinity. Thus, ADE may be a concern for people receiving vaccines based on the original Wuhan strain spike sequence

    https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34384810/

    And guess what – the Delta variant is now predominant, and the boosters are based on the original Wuhan strian soike sequence.
    The vaxxed are fucked!
