    Winter is a bigger factor than most acknowledged.

    Agreed that weather is a significant driver in respiratory illnesses like the seasonal cold outbreaks. But it also appears to be a little more nuanced than : winter bad, summer good. Any weather that drives people indoors to small spaces, tight quarters with others (homes, offices, etc.) increases the speed of an outbreak. Hence the summer spikes in the US south with their heavy reliance on Air Conditioning. The sweet spot seems to be about 75–85°F or 24–29°C where people can comfortably open windows and freely circulate inside & outside. Funny though…nobody is referring to the virus outbreak as an issue of environment.

    Masks are still totally useless. Outside in the street with air flowing about, unlikely to catch a virus from someone else unless they literally sneeze or cough in your face. Indoors, the bigger factor is your proximity to others. If your spouse becomes infected and you spend more than 10 minutes speaking in close proximity, then you are likely to become infected too regardless of whether or not you are wearing masks. It’s like farting…in a room, everyone will smell even if you are wearing pants, but outside it’s barely noticeable.

    We see over and over from Day One — Diamond Princess evil experiment — that happens all the time one spouse gets it and the other doesn’t. No one bothers to look, ask, study why. Masks still considered great psychological torture medicine, despite all real studies, all legal disclaimers, and all common sense.

    Fauci finally slapped his tiny head and said, “O M G people! I just remembered! I’ve been taking super doses of Vitamin C and D all this time! Did I forget to mention?” And as usual, he only says things once the public forces him to as which the wind blows. Still isn’t actively recommending it though — obviously that would stop killing people, and we don’t want that.

    Nursing Homes? Not that I know of. No visitor policy, so you know, UN-designated torture of unlimited solitary confinement in violation of all human rights? But no actual procedures that might save someone, like Sanitarium model. Applause! 1 Year later and we’ve learned not a thing! We’re still killing more people than Cuomo! You can’t make this up! Remember kids: Andrew Cuomo killed more people than Osama Bin Laden. Stunning and brave. A model for all. The best in the world according to Fauc-U.

    “First (though admittedly, China is a mystery).”

    What? No China has 1B people and is wide open in every possible way, and has zero cases. They said so on the internet. No vaccine, no hospitals, no masks. And no questions. No one in the whole planet’s media is at all curious about this. Fauci doesn’t stand up and say, “Whatever China’s doing: we should do it!” You know: unless it destroys all human rights and transfers all business, all wealth, all power on the planet to Bezos and the Walton family.

    “US COVID Deaths Projected To More Than Double To 410,000 By January (R.)”

    NBC posts article today, “COVID Eclipses Heart Disease as the Leading Cause of Death”!!! Of course, having no curiosity and being dumber than “Idiocracy,” they fail to mention that’s because we now have no Heart Disease deaths. The ‘Rona: it’s the miracle cure! It cures the Flu! It cures cancer! It cures heart disease! …Now somebody want to explain that to me?

    Yes, IF IT REPLACES ALL OTHER FORMS OF DEATH – including car accidents and poisonings, which we already have on record – then yeah, it certainly WILL double to half-a-mil. And the world will be safer than ever, as all-in death rates don’t budge.

    Again: explain how we have a pandemic with no death rate. Are we saving 410,000 lives somewhere else you’re not talking about? Or are you both really bad at math, and don’t know how to use a “telephone” to ask for a “statement” from the dissenting viewliteral Doctors and Scientists? Like John Hopkins. Like Denmark. Like Holland. Like Sweden. Like France.

    “Florida Requires Labs To Report ‘Cycle Threshold’ Of COVID-19 Tests (JTN)”

    After us screaming about it for 6 months, they finally start discussing this terrible, unusable, impracticable test right before they start jimmying the cycles to prove the vaccine works. Ding!

    rendering it crippling for Sanders to be similarly tied to Moscow,”

    Exactly as Jimmy Dore said the day it happened. “They Attack him from RIGHT” (i.e. to complain about Communism – which Russia isn’t– and the LACK of new wars, censorship, and new slave markets for brown people) And here we are, just like he said: censorship silencing the LEFT, far-LEFTISTS are being purged again this weekend, the furthest Right, most-disturbed psychotic conspiracy-theory neocons are put in charge of BidenWar™ (but they wear lipstick, so: happy!!) Democratic Socialists are drummed out of the new cabinet, marginalized out of the party now that they’ve been useless idiots for corporatists. And they didn’t WITHHOLD their vote, FORCE concessions, uphold free speech, or as he would say, start a new “People’s Party” to bring the DNC to heel. Now the real Left is being wiped out, annihilated, by the DEMOCRATS, for 3 ½ years, until the next election, when like Lucy they’ll DO THE EXACT SAME THING and screw their Progressive base again. Because: Republicans. It’s their fault we’re so bad!

    The game not played well. It bugs me. Get your People’s Party, get a real candidate who gives real things and you’ll win. …Problem is, as a populist he’ll have most of Trump’s platform and will be arch-enemies with NeoCon/NeoLib billionaire DerpState insiders. RussiaRussiaRussia. Orange Man Bad. That’s not an attack on HIM, that’s an attack on YOU, you idealist far-left Populists.

    And Bernie is their poster child. Saying things, then rolling over like a b—ch in 60 seconds. Being against millionaires until 60 seconds after he is one. Allowing the obvious, open election fraud in Iowa primaries – 4 years after open, obvious – and Reported/Leaked – fraud in California 4 years earlier. Without a peep. Supports Biden’s war and slave markets. Support Hillary and WWIII. He want change so bad he’ll do ANYTHING…except fight for it. Anything except raise his voice and file a suit. Jill Stein has more b-lls than him, at least she filed in Detroit. It’s embarrassing.

    The President Can Pardon Himself, But That Does Not Mean He Should (Turley)”

    Don’t think so: the Supreme Court would have something to say about this. You can be the court that tries yourself, the Judge that passes your own sentence? See what I mean? But politics is just made up. It’s not real. Like law, it’s just some things we made up and is only what we can enforce and get away with.

    How is Europe best defended when the US cannot be trusted?”

    Oh, so you ARE sucking on our trillions to pay for your free health care while we get none. I thought that was a myth.

    Anyone have a spare conspiracy theory? All mine seem to be coming true.

    “This variation on the old idea of a two-speed or two-tier Europe would be based not on geography but on values,”

    He’s not wrong, but there are three Europes, or four. Or Five.

    1) Frugal
    2) Eastern
    3 Southern (Italy, Greece, Spain)
    4) Britain
    5) aaaaaaaand never discussed, because words-mean-only-what-I-want-them-to, RUSSIA.

    Then you’ve got several Europes INSIDE each Europe. Migrants and Muslims in France and Sweden. Radical Progressive vs mildly Traditional. Religious vs Irreligious. Rule of Law vs Whatever-we-want. Liberal (State) vs Conservative everywhere. And no money, no military, no language, no Federals, and no credibility.

    Good luck. You’ll need it.

    “Britain must end all oil and gas extraction in the North Sea as a matter of urgency if it is to maintain its position as a credible climate champion.”

    Britain is credible about anything ever? First I’ve heard of it. But yes, that would be true, and no, it’s not going to happen. What’s amazing is they’ve been lying every second of every day for 20, 30, 40 years about it and no matter how much they don’t do anything, approve more drilling and approve glyphosate over universal objections, everyone still eats it up.

    But go ahead and don’t have oil if you want. That only means you will have no money, no power, no social programs, and you won’t have heat in the winter. Russia will, and they’ll sell it to you so you can live easy on your conscience. Just like poisoning all of Asia, using open slave labor and mass-murder to make your beautiful hipster iPhones and Tesla batteries. “It’s not a crime if I subcontract the mass murder!” Ask any Scrooge.

    Clearly Progressives are not going to stop killing yellow and brown people in my remaining lifetime.

    What is “winter”? It is not just colder weather, inducing people to stay inside, in unventilated rooms, together. Winter is also (northern hemisphere) the time of minimal solar exposure to human skin, so minimal vitamin-D. Vitamin D is critical for normal immune function, and it is slow to build and slow to decline in human bodies, lagging sun exposure by something like 6 weeks (my educated guess).
    Take vitamin-D 5000 units per day. Double that for 1-2 months if you are just starting.

    “It’s the vitamin-D, stupid​!​”​ (Take 5000 units per day long term if you weigh over 100#. Double that dose for a couple of months if just starting.)​
    Conclusions The previous studies, reporting a vitamin D blood level impact, compared COVID-19 severity between different patients populations and so can hardly discriminate whether the vitamin D blood level is a real factor of covid-19 severity or only a marker of another weakness being the primary severity factor. In contrary, the date of the boost is an intrapopulation observation and can thus only be triggered by a parameter globally affecting the population, i.e. the sun UV daily dose decreases. This result evidences that low vitamin blood D level is a contributing factor of COVID-19 severity.

    Chief Medical Officer Says Canadians Who Refuse Vaccine Won’t Have “Freedom to Move Around”
    Williams acknowledged that “we can’t force someone to take a vaccine,” but when on to explain how people who didn’t take it would have their freedom of mobility severely restricted.
    “What we can do is to say sometimes for access or ease of getting into certain settings, if you don’t have vaccination then you’re not allowed into that setting without other protection materials,” said Williams.

    Chief Medical Officer Says Canadians Who Refuse Vaccine Won’t Have “Freedom to Move Around”

    This is a remarkably intelligent and even-handed look at western political economy since the late 1800s, but the conclusion makes a point.
    The COVID-19 pandemic has upset the earlier uneasy coexistence of accepted “truth” and the occasional revolts against it. What was considered a radical economic populist agenda just six months ago has won: Budget constraints are ignored or even not deemed to be constraints anymore. Economies have slowed dramatically due to lockdowns and fear of illness, and the state is now expected to revive them using state funding, debt creation, and welfare programs. Central banks have embarked again on large-scale money creation to push the economy over the deflationary precipice and avoid collapse.
    Despite the unprecedented scale of state intervention, the recovery from the novel coronavirus lockdowns is slow and partial. Immense difficulties lie ahead. No wonder, then, that the cultural-political differences have become even more vicious. Nonetheless, we are nowhere near an explosion comparable to the interwar years. This is not 1933. Rather, we are in the fateful last years of the belle epoque, the underlying contradictions of which led to an unexpected eruption of the Great War in 1914. This situation bears an uncanny resemblance to the world described by Thomas Mann in The Magic Mountain—an impending sense of doom, of the end days, combined with an epidemic.
    Just as then, we have three major sources of conflict. First, an underlying Great Power competition between China and the US. Second, the unsustainability of the mixed economy in the context of the large increases in debt and aging populations.

    A Loss of Direction and the Rise of Populisms

    Ellen Brown, Why The Fed Needs Public Banks (Well, the public needs them more…)
    The reason the Fed is not well suited to the task is that it is not allowed to make loans directly to Main Street businesses. It must rely on banks to do it, and private banks are currently unable or unwilling to make those loans as needed. But publicly-owned banks would. Several promising public bank bills were recently introduced in Congress that could help resolve this crisis.

    They can’t raise interest rates but they need inflation- isn’t that what the UBI will do? I can’t think of a better way to open the doors to rampant inflation than by flooding the nation with mega billions of dollars- and the recipients will actually spend them on stuff.

    By the way- thanks, Huskynut, for your comment yesterday. It only encourages me. ; )

    It seems like everybody thinks government deficit spending is positive!

    However governments produce nothing. They can only take something from productive people. (You can’t take from unproductive people because they produce nothing that you can take.)

    So printing money steals value from existing money owners.

    O.K. so you take something from productive people. Obviously this will make productive people less productive going forward because they have less to be productive with. (They might also decide not to work so hard going forward too!) This ends up hurting everybody in the long run as the pie keeps getting smaller.

    Again, how is bigger government positive?

    my parents said know:

    When you see governments printing money like crazy and then people spending the money on “goods” as quickly as they can, rather than save the money, then you are seeing concrete signs that the people have lost “trust” in the value of they government’s money!

    By then it is too late to protect yourself.

    @ WES:

    Excellent principle of understand you wrote there.

    ^&*

    Wow. Looks like the offer they made Bernie not to be refused runs deep. Or he’s a uncommonly sick kind of creep. I prefer to think the former.

    ^&*

    @ WES again:

    Big government is the inevitable result of the cancer known as human governance. As long as the population grows, so does the government. Both population and government become crazier and less functional as size expands.
