Dr McCullough explains the viral load measurements performed the same way, comparing viral load in the nasopharyngeal space between unvaccinated people infected with alpha-COVID and vaccinated people infected with delta-COVID. It is a fair and valid comparison: McCullouhg has to keep speaking while he can. He is being sued by his medical school employer. Heroic.
“This group had actually calculated viral load from oral and nasal secretions in the past. The viral load was 251 times that of the previous unvaccinated era where they had used the same methodology. So, they had previous workers and patients who had COVID-19 before any exposure to the vaccines. And now the vaccinated were carrying a massive viral load and passing it to one another.”There is now a class action suit by members of the US armed services against the Pentagon vaccine mandate:
“The Secretary of Defense, Lloyd Austin (the “SECDEF”) has publicly notified Plaintiffs, via Memo, that he will seek authorization from the President of the United States of America (the “President”), to mandate the COVID-19 vaccine on or about September 15, 2021,” the plaintiffs note. “Upon information and belief, the DoD is already vaccinating military members in flagrant violation of its legal obligations and the rights of servicemembers under federal law and the Constitution.”
“Army Regulation 40-562 provides documented survivors of an infection, a presumptive medical exemption from vaccination because of the natural immunity acquired as a result of having survived the infection,” the legal complaint added.
“General examples of medical exemptions include the following… Evidence of immunity based on serologic tests, documented infection, or similar circumstances,” the lawsuit cites.

How is it possible that the world’s preeminent “intelligence community” – the NSA and the DIA and the NRO and the CIA and whole alphabet soup of associated agencies – with still more trillions of dollars of resources at their disposal, would fail to identify the catalyzing impact of a State Dept. announcement that the gig was up and the US government was abandoning Kabul? I don’t think it IS possible.
You’ll notice what I’m not saying. I’m not saying that the White House or the US State Dept. are too smart to make a boneheaded announcement of an embassy withdrawal. I’m also not saying that they’re stupid. What I AM saying is that both White House staff and non-career State Dept. staff devote whatever smarts they have to the domestic political ramifications of everything they do. What I AM saying is that the White House does not give a rat’s ass about Afghanistan except as it impacts domestic politics. What I AM saying is that the White House relies on the DOD and the IC to advise them on what’s actually going to happen in a place like Afghanistan if they do this or they do that.
I think the White House got some bad advice and made a boneheaded move.
Or more probably still, I think the boneheaded moves of this White House – designed entirely with an eye towards domestic politics – were met with oh-sure-boss-whatever-you-say indifference by people in the DOD and IC who knew better but were only too happy to see a painful debacle unfold.
The dominant narratives today are all strawmen – intentionally magnified and absurd counterfactuals to which the projected narrative stands in oh-so-bold opposition. You think the Afghanistan endgame was mangled by the Biden White House? Why you must be in favor of Forever Wars! TM. You think the Biden White House has the most coherent and correct policy for Afghanistan of any Administration over the past 20 years? Why you must be in favor of Abandoning Our Allies!
But that’s exactly what I think. I think the Biden White House has the most coherent and correct policy for Afghanistan of any Administration over the past 20 years AND I think that’s faint praise AND I think they completely mangled the endgame because all they think about is domestic politics AND I think the DOD and IC knew better because they of all people understand the Common Knowledge Game.
Everyone is gaslighting everyone. Everyone thinks they are a player.
I suspect this man profoundly understands the weaknesses of the US military at ground level.
Taliban Appoints former Gitmo Detainee as Afghanistan’s Defense Minister
Afghanistan’s new Taliban government has appointed former Guantanamo detainee mullah Abdul Qayyum Zakir as it’s acting defense minister, according to Qatari based Al Jazeera news channel on Tuesday, subsequently reported in Reuters.
He was among the first senior Taliban commanders to enter Kabul last week as the group overran the capital amid the U.S. troop exit, and after U.S.-trained national forces largely fled. Until being named as Defense Minister, Qayyum was deputy to the Taliban’s commander-in-chief, Mullah Yaqoob.

Peter McCullough MD: (It’s an “Enhanced Carrier State” This hospital was like The Diamond Princess, but vaccinated.)
A groundbreaking preprint paper by the prestigious Oxford University Clinical Research Group, published Aug. 10 in The Lancet, includes alarming findings devastating to the COVID vaccine rollout.
The study found vaccinated individuals carry 251 times the load of COVID-19 viruses in their nostrils compared to the unvaccinated.
While moderating the symptoms of infection, the jab allows vaccinated individuals to carry unusually high viral loads without becoming ill at first, potentially transforming them into presymptomatic superspreaders.
This phenomenon may be the source of the shocking post-vaccination surges in heavily vaccinated populations globally...
The scientists studied healthcare workers who were unable to leave the hospital for two weeks. The data showed that fully vaccinated workers — about two months after injection with the Oxford/AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine (AZD1222) — acquired, carried and presumably transmitted the Delta variant to their vaccinated colleagues.
They almost certainly also passed the Delta infection to susceptible unvaccinated people, including their patients. Sequencing of strains confirmed the workers transmitted SARS-CoV-2 to one another...
The conclusions of the Chau paper support the warnings by leading medical experts that the partial, non-sterilizing immunity from the three notoriously “leaky” COVID-19 vaccines allow carriage of 251 times the viral load of SARS-CoV-2 as compared to samples from the pre-vaccination era in 2020.
Thus, we have a key piece to the puzzle explaining why the Delta outbreak is so formidable — fully vaccinated are participating as COVID-19 patients and acting as powerful Typhoid Mary-style super-spreaders of the infection.Here is that paper: Transmission of SARS-CoV-2 Delta Variant Among Vaccinated Healthcare Workers, Vietnam

“We’ve just got to get people vaccinated.”
(Tony Fauci knows full-well that the selection pressures created by non-sterilizing vaccines, which allow vaccinated hosts to carry mutating coronavirus in their noses, is what is inducing vaccine-resistant viral mutants. It is usual and expected.)
Fauci then dismissed freedom as an after thought, noting “I know I respect people’s freedom, but when you’re talking about a public health crisis that we’ve been going through for well over a year and a half, the time has come. Enough is enough. We’ve just got to get people vaccinated.”
“If we keep lingering without getting those people vaccinated that should be vaccinated, this thing could linger on, leading to the development of another variant which could complicate things.” Fauci further proclaimed.Fauci Dismisses “Freedom” In Call For Vaccine Mandates: “The Time Has Come. Enough Is Enough.”
Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine does not have FDA approval. Pfizer vaccine has a continuation of the EUA, Emergency Use Authorization, which shields Pfizer completely from any liability for all of those deaths and side effects.
Pfizer can keep selling and using all of their vaccine stock without any liability, and while making profit. Pfizer benefits from the good-publicity and the proliferation of vaccine mandates, which arise from FDA approval of the similar, but legally distinct BionTech product.
BionTech has no real stock of vials in the US, and does carry some legal liability, which will adhere to their renamed product, when it is released here.
This is the “best of both worlds” for the fevered rush (why?) to get a needle in every single arm right away.
Pfizer’s FDA approval research will be ready for submission in 2025. Pfizer eliminated the control group by unblinding the study and telling all the saline recipients that they got saline, and could get the real thing for free. Almost all of them did.
Eliminating the control group was portrayed as noble, but it also obscures evidence of adverse reactions and deaths in the treatment arm.

Thanks for this , Cat: Covid Post-totalitarianism
It should be clear from the foregoing discussion that the covid regime resembles, in many respects, the post-totalitarian system described by Vaclav Havel. Regardless of “the science,” or rather because of it, the covid regime is post-totalitarian. “The science” has proven itself to be ideological. Although continually discredited—by the exaggeration of the virus’s lethality, by the suppression of known cures so as to usher in a state of emergency and the mRNA vaccines, by the underreporting of vaccine deaths and injuries, by the institution and reinstitution of failed and unscientific lockdown and masking mandates, and more—“the science” is wielded by authorities as if a matter of fact and a matter of course, just as Marxist ideology was wielded by Soviet communists. And, as under communism, even those who know the truth are compelled to live within the lie.
Just as the greengrocer was compelled to display signs of his loyalty under Soviet bloc communism, signs transmitting semantic content to which he was indifferent, so the covid citizen is compelled to display signs of compliance and complicity under the covid regime. The signs have included donning the mask and, increasingly, displaying the vaccine passport—to take part in society. And, as under communism, these displays are compulsory rituals...
…Rather than needing a political program, these dissidents seek community in “the continuing and cruel tension between the complex demands of that [covid] system and the aims of life, that is, the elementary need of human beings to live, to a certain extent at least, in harmony with themselves, that is, to live in a bearable way … ”
Yet their efforts may eventually assume a political character and may manage to create another world, and covid post-totalitarianism may be the crucible in which this other world is forged.

There were 669 people hospitalized with COVID who are in serious condition, as of Sunday evening. One week ago, that figure stood at 535, and a month ago, it was just 76.

@Doc. Robinson: Thanks for doing a good job of unpacking that BMJ article.Pfizer coerced deals upon countries that desired to obtain it’s COVID-19 vaccines last year, which broke laws of those countries, could not be revoked under any conditions or in light of new information or treatments (ivermectin, deadly side effects), and in some cases gave Pfizer ownership of things like military bases, should the country default. Thanks Luc. It was a seller’s market. Israel got a deal.
In history’s largest medical experiment with “vaccines” that have not been approved for use in humans, it is the buyers’ responsibility to defend Pfizer for causing harm, leaked documents showed. Pfizer has escaped all liability and is indemnified, arguing that side effects and the long-term effects of the injections are unknown – to the company as well. Pfizer thus admits that an insufficiently tested product is being pushed in literally billions of doses on the world market.
This means that all responsibility for costs, healthcare, etc. due to vaccine damage – no matter how large and onerous – is passed on to the taxpayers in the countries that have signed the agreements. Since the agreements put each country’s own laws out of play, they have all been signed at government level.Bombshell leak: Countries that buy Pfizer’s vaccine undertake to break the law

https://www.bmj.com/content/374/bmj.n2086 People have not been able to get doctors to prescribe ivermectin for COVID treatment and prevention, so they have bought veterinary ivermectin to use, mostly the horse-paste, but there are also some horse pills. A horse weighs about 10 times as much as a human, so people who take a horse pill, at 10X the human dose are getting nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and dizziness, but that’s all. No deaths, and the one “hospitalization” in Mississippi, does not appear to be confirmed. Take the right dose. If you can’t do math, get help from a farm-boy who can. These horse products are used on goats, rabbits, farmers and farmers children, at the correct scaling doses. Ask a farmer with critters. FDA resorts to shouting and public shaming, because it’s hard to fear safer-than-Tylenol ivermectin.

American Journal of Therapeutics:
Moderate-certainty evidence finds that large reductions in COVID-19 deaths are possible using ivermectin. Using ivermectin early in the clinical course may reduce numbers progressing to severe disease. The apparent safety and low cost suggest that ivermectin is likely to have a significant impact on the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic globally.

A scientific paper from Nature, last October, gives clear historical context regarding this common and devastating and difficult to avoid vaccination side effect.
Look, they got this problem when they tried to make vaccines for SARS-Co-V and MERS, the close cousins of our current COVID family.
In this Perspective, we summarize examples of vaccine-associated disease enhancement in the history of developing vaccines against respiratory syncytial virus, dengue virus, SARS-CoV and Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus, which highlight the importance of a robust safety and efficacy profile, and present recommendations for preclinical and clinical evaluation of COVID-19 vaccine candidates as well as for vaccine design and optimization.
https://www.nature.com/articles/s41579-020-00462-y Here is a specific mechanism of vaccine-antibodies to alpha-COVID spike protein enhancing the ability of delta-COVID to enter human cells, once the spike protein anchors to the cell. This is demonstrated to predominate in effet over the blocking antibodies, since delta mutated and they lost effectiveness against it.
Infection-enhancing anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies recognize both the original Wuhan/D614G strain and Delta variants. A potential risk for mass vaccination?
Using molecular modeling approaches, we show that enhancing antibodies have a higher affinity for Delta variants than for Wuhan/D614G NTDs. We show that enhancing antibodies reinforce the binding of the spike trimer to the host cell membrane by clamping the NTD to lipid raft microdomains. This stabilizing mechanism may facilitate the conformational change that induces the demasking of the receptor binding domain. As the NTD is also targeted by neutralizing antibodies, our data suggest that the balance between neutralizing and facilitating antibodies in vaccinated individuals is in favor of neutralization for the original Wuhan/D614G strain. 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.

https://www.johndayblog.com/2021/08/consulted-more-fortunate-countries-of.htmlThe “more fortunate” countries of the world made the kind of deal with Pfizer last fall, that you or I might make with a mortgage lender, or when taking out a home-equity loan. The superior party bears no risk, and actually gains even more if the lesser party defaults. No way out, except to pay up.
Pfizer had good reason to exact such iron-clad contracts, which held Pfizer blameless in any circumstance which might arise. It’s good-business, of course, but the risks for antibody dependent enhancement (of viral pathogenicity) were well known, and no coronavirus vaccine studied had been successful in 20 years of trying.
The vaccinated animals made antibodies, but died at higher rates than the unvaccinated animals when challenged with viral infection.
Antibodies “against” a virus can turn out to be “for” the virus, to help it be more infectious.
That effect takes time to develop, like half a year to get started, in general.
There is evidence that is happening with vaccines against the original “alpha”-COVID spike protein now helping the Indian-originated delta-COVID have enhanced infectivity in vaccinated people.
That is just getting started, though, because it’s kind of accidental that delta-COVID can do a bit of this. Delta-COVID evolved in India with about 4% population vaccination, so it was just trying to spread effectively in a population. It did not have to dodge vaccine-created antibodies on the path to that success.
Now, in much of the world, like where we live, a majority of susceptible people have blocking-and-enhancing antibodies to alpha-COVID spike protein, due to vaccination. The viral mutations of resistance to blocking antibodies will be rewarded with more viral success in spread, but there is now a new option. Viral mutation to get more TURBO-BOOST out of the enhancing antibodies opens the door to new viral strains that will be more infectious to the vaccinated than to the unvaccinated.
This environmental niche has been created among spike-protein-vaccinated human hosts.
I suspect that mutant COVID variants yet-unnamed are already filling it.
Stay tuned, especially to Israel.@Deflationista: You can lay in stock, or use daily, zinc plus a metabolic delivery system for it.
You should be replete with vitamin-D, of course. Take 5000 units per day, or titrate your dose to a blood level of 60-100. It takes a couple of months at a dose for the blood level to equilibrate.
Zinc has been known since about 1995 to interfere with coronavirus intracellular replication, but your body does not actively transport zinc into cells. Quercetin, a natural food plant product, found in onions, green tea and many vegetables, is a zinc ionophore. It helps zinc get into cells. Your gut does not absorb quercetin very well, but sunflower lecithin greatly facilitated gut absorption of quercetin (“… she swallowed the spider to catch the fly, but I don’t know why she swallowed the fly…”)
Once per day take 25-50 mg zinc, quercetin (250-500 mg, with or without bromelain) and a capsule (250-500 mg is plenty, but they are often bigger) of lecithin.
Up that to 3 times per day for active COVID.

I checked out the guy’s arithmetic because it seemed so illogical and sure enough.
The basic arithmetic on this page is incorrect beginning at the very top of the page. His statement is FALSE that “out of 515 patients currently hospitalized with severe cases in Israel, 301 (58.4%) of these cases were fully vaccinated” because if the given numbers (by the Israeli Health Dept) are 214/100000 hospitalized are not vax’d and 301/100000 of the hospitalized are fully vax’d, then the hospitalized rate of vax’d per person is 0.00301 and of non-vax’d is 0.00214, so out of 515 persons 1.1021 would be not vax’d and 1.55015 would be vax’d. Multiplying that rate times the total populations of not vax’d is 2,788.23 and of fully vax’d is 16,960.25. It is very clear that the ABSOLUTE risk protection from hospitalization from being vax’d is NEGATIVE -0.00087 or -0.87% GREATER Risk of being seriously hospitalized for the fully vax’d than for the non-vax’d. This whole page is manipulated incorrect arithmetic to fool people into getting booster shots. Highly unethical nonsense!Go Taliban!

I’m not sure how much it applies to everyday life, though.
Weasels are what conspire against you in the grown-up world.
Packs of smiling weasels that lay ambush and tell lies.
By the time I was 15 I could do pull-ups and push-ups and did not have bully fights where I lay face up and got pounded ’cause I wouldn’t say “uncle”.
Weasels are the issue in adulthood.
I’m still ready for bullies, but I never use it.
Do what your soul says is right. Keep doing it.
It’s an experiment.On August 15, 1971 Richard Nixon announced on TV that he was temporarily closing the US Treasury Gold-Window, due to attacks by speculators.
I remember that TV show. 50 years later, to the day, the Taliban retook the capital of Afghanistan. Monday, three days ago. Comparisons are inevitable.
Throughout spring and early summer of 1971, the drains on the US gold reserves increased, drawing down those stocks of physical gold. The main reason was the outlays for the war in Vietnam. Trade had been pretty balanced before that, but a lot of dollars got spent in Vietnam, and found their way back to the US Treasury gold-window. It was the Vietnam War that drained US gold. Michael Hudson worked that out in 1966, working for David (I think) Rockefeller.
It was unwelcome news. The Treasury rejected his reported analysis. He was right. France, the recent colonial master of Vietnam, had been converting $US to gold.
A French destroyer came to pick up a few thousand tons of it in summer 1971, then on Thursday, August 12, 1971 the UK asked for so much physical gold that it was impossible. The US gave them a quarter of it, and closed the gold window the following Sunday night, August 15, 1971. Here is how that went down.

In the end, there was no Battle for Kabul. Thousands of Taliban were already inside Kabul – once again the classic sleeper-cell playbook. The bulk of their forces remained in the outskirts. An official Taliban proclamation ordered them not to enter the city, which should be captured without a fight, to prevent civilian casualties.
The Taliban did advance from the west, but “advancing,” in context, meant connecting to the sleeper cells in Kabul, which by then were fully active. Tactically, Kabul was encircled in an “anaconda” move, as defined by a Taliban commander: squeezed from north, south and west and, with the capture of Jalalabad, cut off from the east.
At some point last week, high-level intel must have whispered to the Taliban command that the Americans would be coming to “evacuate.” It could have been Pakistan intelligence, even Turkish intelligence, with Erdogan playing his characteristic NATO double game.
The American rescue cavalry not only came late, but was caught in a bind as they could not possibly bomb their own assets inside Kabul. The horrible timing was compounded when the Bagram military base – the NATO Valhalla in Afghanistan for nearly 20 years – was finally captured by the Taliban.
That led the US and NATO to literally beg the Taliban to let them evacuate everything in sight from Kabul – by air, in haste, at the Taliban’s mercy. A geopolitical development that evokes suspension of disbelief…
Taliban 2021 is an entirely different animal compared with Taliban 2001. Not only are they battle-hardened, they had plenty of time to perfect their diplomatic skills, which were recently more than visible in Doha and in high-level visits to Tehran, Moscow and Tianjin.
They know very well that any connection with al-Qaeda remnants, ISIS/Daesh, ISIS-Khorasan and ETIM is counter-productive – as their Shanghai Cooperation Organization interlocutors made very clear.
Internal unity, anyway, will be extremely hard to achieve. The Afghan tribal maze is a jigsaw puzzle, nearly impossible to crack. What the Taliban may realistically achieve is a loose confederation of tribes and ethnic groups under a Taliban emir, coupled with very careful management of social relations.Tom Luongo on the fall of Kabul. (I think elites like special dates to signal significance.)
I can’t say I’m shedding any tears here except for all the losses on both sides. War is never righteous.
So, while I’m happy to see this end I am also sad to also see this end for what it is, a planned act of geopolitical vandalism by the Biden Obama Administration to ensure a complete collapse of the U.S. political system.
We are being liquidated by The Davos Crowd at the precise moment when their Great Reset is at its most vulnerable…
Before Afghanistan was there a Dept. of Homeland Security? The Patriot Act? The Military Commissions Act? A Global War on Terror?https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/luongo-what-if-afghanistan-more-just-failed-war
It won’t take the CJ Hopkins. Let’s see if it will take my essay that extends from that.
There is soon to be an announcement that vaccination, full vaccination against COVID, will be mandatory for anybody working at our clinic, including vendors and contractors in the buildings. The people who are slowly moving this policy into position for official deployment are people I have worked with for years, and shared hugs and smiles with. It is bound to make everybody uncomfortable, most of all me. I have committed to dealing with it, to making a stand at this point in the dehumanization process, after 18 years of cumulative service at People’s Community Clinic.
This is a stand which will lose me my job taking care of thousands of patients. I will lose contact with then=m, and they will lose contact with me. I will lose my social identity as their physician and as a member of the team at the clinic. This will dehumanize me, my patients, and will somewhat dehumanize the people making this decision as a group. They are all nice people, and we have all, always gotten along well and shared the vision of humanitarian care for our patients.
During the COVID pandemic, I have been permitted (quietly) to treat patients with repurposed oral antivirals. It was appreciated that I gave away 600 bottles of vitamin-D pills last year at my own expense, to patients and staff. It is appreciated that I created and maintain a vegetable garden in the break patio, large by urban standards. I post updates and garden news to our inboxes a few times per season. People like the garden news and insights.
I have put a major portion of my life, identity and all of my livelihood on what seems like an abstraction. I will lose all of that to stand with those who choose to resist mandatory medical injections with a new and secretive technology from Bill Gates and friends.
I can take Social Security early retirement while it lasts. I’m probably healthy enough to last another 30 years, myself. I don’t think Social Security will last to 2030.
I don’t see the future. It’s not formed by our free-wills yet, but I see what similar set-ups have wrought in the past.
Our country is in early financial collapse. The global oligarchs have determined that a 90% culling of the herd is necessary.
Blowing things up is the wrong tool for that job this time.
I seek spiritual guidance daily.Sigh, can’t seem to post at all today
https://www.johndayblog.com/2021/08/financial-regime-change.htmlSimpson’s paradox basically says that lumped data, which statistically “proves” one trend, might actually “prove” the opposite when it is appropriately separated into similarly grouped sets.
Sometimes a scatterplot helps the eye pick that out.
Wickipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simpson%27s_paradoxSo, we might take Deflationista to be telling the rest of us groupthinkers that we could be exactly-wrong, but without explaining. That’s sort of a fire-and-forget round.
Maybe Deflationista has a lot of blogs to tend… Piecework rates may apply.Bluebird noticed my blog disappeared yesterday. It did that after I posted and went to work, so I didn;t notice, but Google sent us a notice that our Google service had been suspended. No reason.
“Try to log back on”. Look at all of the possible reasons it might have happened at these links. Everything imaginable.
No clues, but it happened a few hours after I posted the blog, then un-happened.
Maybe I said something wrong on the blog, or in the bcc email version of it that I send at the same time.
“Self Criticize!” was the command in the Cultural Revolution era, I think.@Phoenix Voice: When does social distancing become ostracizing?
My Clinic is moving in that direction, with a timeline, which appears to be some time in the second half of September at this point, but not yet announced.
Our virtual leper colony may go “poof”…
Meditate and worship.
;-}No pics, just what you know.
The battle is joined. It cannot long be hidden that the vaccinated are more susceptible to the new strains.
https://www.johndayblog.com/2021/08/vaccines-help-delta.htmlThis scientific paper from The Journal of Infection looks at ADE, antibody dependent enhancement of viral pathogenicity.
This is the phenomenon whereby antibodies may help a virus infect an organism more aggressively.
The context for this is antibodies formed in response to vaccines against the “alpha” coronavirus.
There are populations of blocking antibodies and populations of facilitating antibodies.
In the battle against the alpha SARS-CoV-2, the blocking antibody effect is clearly dominant.
Those same vaccination-antibodies have a different summation against the delta variant.
They tend to help it infect human cells.
This is true for all of the vaccines against the original spike protein. Yep, that’s what you got.
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.

Health officials predict thousands of seriously ill COVID patients within month
Bennett reportedly agrees to expand hospital capacity after being presented with numbers showing hospitalizations quadrupling by mid-September; funding for plan unclear...
The predictions from the health experts were based on a doubling of the number of hospitalizations and serious illnesses every 10 days.
https://www.timesofisrael.com/health-officials-predict-thousands-of-seriously-ill-covid-patients-within-month/The bulk of hospitalizations for COVID-19 in the January through June time period occurred well before May. Anybody not receiving a second vaccine 2 weeks or more before being diagnosed with COVID was counted as “unvaccinated”.
That’s how they got that “pandemic of the unvaccinated” line. It was. Now it looks more like a”pandemic of the vaccinated.”.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the White House and most mainstream media, what we have now is a “pandemic of the unvaccinated,” with 95% to 99% of COVID-related hospitalizations and deaths being attributed to the unvaccinated.
To achieve that statistic, the CDC included hospitalization and mortality data from January through June. The vast majority of the U.S. population was unvaccinated during that timeframe.
By Jan. 1 only 0.5% of the U.S. population had received a COVID shot. By mid-April, an estimated 31% had received one or more shots and as of June 15, 48.7% were fully “vaccinated.”How CDC Manipulated Data to Create ‘Pandemic of the Unvaxxed’ Narrative
India, birthplace of the ‘Delta variant” (previously known as “the Indian strain”), uses ivermectin based treatment for COVID. Uttar Pradesh is 2/3 the population of the USA, and much poorer, much more congested. There is good reason to be dubious of any statistics from India, but the clearly beat COVID in New Delhi.
