About that A Hypothesis essay by Greer: … yes, most bleak version to date I have read! One nagging thought, however, a puzzle: … Why would the U.S. – a hegemony – contract out a again-of-function research to China – an adversary? Contract that, to large extent, has been financed out of DOD budget.
This makes no sense whatsoever,… unless there was some very insidious, sinister plan behind it all,… like pinning some undesirable ‘worldly’ event on China? Dunno, … but my mind can think of at least one plausible scenario.

F.S.Dr. Richard Flaming on the Delta variant:
The Delta Variant
https://www.flemingmethod.com/the-delta-variant… snip:
Viruses depend upon a host to live and reproduce itself. In the case of SARS-CoV-2 that means people. If the virus becomes too dangerous and kills you, then the virus will NOT survive and will not be able to spread to other people. It will die inside you. [Yes, a few might escape before you die, but this is not going to continue very long before the virus can no longer escape.]Viruses evolve to survive. When pressure is placed on a living organism, those that are too weak or susceptible to the pressure will die; leaving only those without that weakness alive to survive and perpetuate the next generation. …
F.S.OK, folks, I have been following teachings of Dr. Richard Fleming on this topic of COVID-19, … and largely accepting it all as presented, … as perhaps, just closest to being most probable.

So here is my question. There are four logical explanations of this for COVID-dissidents/anti-vaxxers:
1. Putin, Xi, Khamenei, Maduro, Arce (and Morales!) and Diaz-Canel are all less well informed that we (COVID-dissidents/anti-vaxxers) are.
2. Putin, Xi, Khamenei, Maduro, Arce (and Morales!) and Diaz-Canel all know the truth, but they are all lying.
3. Putin, Xi, Khamenei, Maduro, Arce (and Morales!) and Diaz-Canel all working with the Great-Replacers and “chippers” from Davos, with the Bohemian grovers, with Bill Gates and CFR, etc. etc. etc. They all want to create a single world government, kill a few billion people and usher in the Times of the Antichrist.

Biden, Reversing Trump, Permits a Key Putin Goal: a New Russian Natural Gas Pipeline to Germany – Dr. John Day, May 20, 2021 at 4:43 pm
_________________________Well, … https://www.moonofalabama.org/ just made a minced turkey meat out of Greenwald, … and correctly so:
Note To Greenwald – The ‘Russian’ Pipeline Is A Germany Need
https://www.moonofalabama.org/2021/05/note-to-greenwald-the-russian-pipeline-is-a-germany-need-.html#more… short snip:
Greenwald seems to presume that it is the right or the job of a U.S. president to ‘permit’ pipelines between two foreign country? That is of course completely false. The U.S. has no right, duty or whatever to interfere in regular businesses between foreign partners. Such interference is in fact illegal under international law. Biden, as well as Trump, should be criticized for even thinking about ‘permitting’ it.Best,
F.S.Just for a contrast, vax situation from bit different angle, … “investment” angle [primarily quotes from latest Morningstar report]:
“ Moderna Dominates COVID-19 Vaccine Manufacturers,
at Least for Now
The development of the COVID-19 vaccine market will depend on several tough-to- predict outcomes, like the duration of vaccine protection, how variants evolve, and how competitors progress.
Despite the early lead that Moderna MRNA and BioNTech BNTX hold, and their clear dominance in the pandemic market for COVID-19 vaccine sales, we’re not yet convinced that COVID-19 will require widespread annual booster shots, and if so, whether these companies will remain dominant in the long run.
Still, we do expect these mRNA companies to dominate the global COVID-19 vaccine market in the short term, particularly as third-dose boosters become available late in 2021. We expect 41% of delivered doses in 2022 to be based on mRNA technology.”“Near-Term mRNA Vaccine Demand Boosted by Vector Vaccine Headwinds
Adenoviral vector vaccines from Johnson & Johnson JNJ and AstraZeneca AZN have seen slower launches due to manufacturing issues and, more recently, potential safety issues.
The manufacturing issues have cut AstraZeneca’s expected output in the first half of 2021 from its original goal of 300 million doses in the European Union to only 100 million. Johnson & Johnson has lost as many as 15 million doses due to a manufacturing mix-up at a key facility in Baltimore.
And both vaccines have been linked to rare side effects. Reports of a rare combination of low platelets and dangerous blood clots in recipients of the AstraZeneca vaccine have led several European countries to limit its use to older adults; Denmark has opted to stop using it entirely. The Johnson & Johnson vaccine is back on the U.S. market following a temporary pause while the Food and Drug Administration investigated six blood clots (out of more than 6.8 million administered doses).
We continue to think the risks of COVID-19 far outweigh the potential safety risks of these vaccines, particularly in regions that do not have access to mRNA vaccines and if age restrictions are considered. That said, these fears are already boosting demand for mRNA vaccines in Europe.”“COVID-19 Vaccinations Likely to Be Annual, at Least for Some Groups
So far, data indicates that vaccines last at least six months, as Pfizer PFE/BioNTech and Moderna have disclosed relatively stable six-month efficacy levels. However, we assume continuing declines will mean that COVID-19 vaccines will be needed annually for certain populations, beyond the pandemic.
In our base case, we assume that higher-risk populations (infants and the elderly) require annual vaccination and that prices rise slightly due to demand for higher- efficacy vaccines (although we assume some new competition from other mRNA and antigen vaccine players). Our base-case assumptions create a roughly $8 billion annual market, of which we assume Moderna could see $2 billion annually. (We provide our detailed analysis of Moderna in this article.)
In our bull case, we assume broad recommendations for annual vaccination at a price roughly double that of pandemic prices. This assumes limited competition, continued high mutation rates, and waning immunity from pandemic shots (vaccines appear to remain effective for at least six months, but additional mutations could erode this protection further). Our Moderna bull-case assumptions imply market demand for 1.6 billion vaccine doses annually; at a premium price around $16 a dose globally ($30 in the United States), this would create a $26 billion annual market.
In our bear case, we assume that only infants require annual shots, due to slowing mutation rates and longer-lived protection from pandemic shots, which levels the playing field for older technologies that take longer to modify and therefore prevents any price increases from pandemic levels. Our Moderna bear-case assumptions imply market demand for 250 million doses annually; at roughly pandemic-level pricing ($8 globally, $15 in the U.S.), this would create a $2 billion annual market.”… so you all know.

https://calgary.ctvnews.ca/union-launches-legal-action-to-block-reopening-of-cargill-meat-processing-plant-in-high-river-1.4921348CALGARY — The union representing workers at the Cargill meat processing plant in High River, Alta. is taking legal action to stop it from being reopened on Monday.
Nearly half of the 2,000 employees at the plant have tested positive for COVID-19, forcing the operation to be idled just under two weeks ago.
On Wednesday, the company announced plans to resume operations on May 4.

Sandel poses a question in The New York Timely:
Are We All in This Together?
… again, a snip:
In a pandemic, this question arises most urgently as a question about health care: Should medical care be accessible to all, regardless of their ability to pay? The Trump administration decided that the federal government would pay for coronavirus treatment for the uninsured. Whether it will be possible to reconcile the moral logic of this policy with the notion that health coverage in ordinary times should be left to the market remains to be seen.
