@Slimy Aliigator:
Vitamin-D, an aspirin per day for a week before and 2 weeks after, and cetirizine before and a couple of weeks after any dose all make sense.
There are a lot of other recommendations, too, but I’m not sure how they were decided.40% increase in working age excess deaths in the second half of 2021.

Unprecedented: Deaths in Indiana for ages 18-64 are up 40%
This is huge. Something is killing healthy people at an unprecedented rate. It isn’t COVID. Could it be the “safe and effective” COVID vaccine? I think so. Here’s why.
https://stevekirsch.substack.com/p/unprecedented-deaths-in-indiana-for@Sumac.Carol: Garlic and onions have quercetin, also, but it is much more concentrated in pills and powders. We eat and grow alliums here.
@Oroboros: Thanks. I also remember 1968 pretty well. I turned 10 in April. I was aware, but unable to participate, just watched… I remember the day JFK was assassinated, also. My grandparents taught me much about the world and how it really works, with my father’s mother and mother’s father both having extensive international life and travel at young to young adult ages. I also ended traveling the world a lot as a USMC brat during and after Vietnam.
“Fourth Turning”, agreed. This one is some kind of 300 year “super-cycle” and nobody in power can see what to do, because they must relinquish power, and they cannot gaze upon that possibility at all.
As energy per capita falls, the upper levels of system-complexity must be shed, and economies must re-localize more and more, in order to survive.
The “Great Reset” to another, global consolidation of absolute power and control is the opposite of what can possibly lead to successful economic life support systems for humans in the future.
From Bill Blain, financial writer: “COVID is Dead, Energy is the New Crisis”
…I am unconvinced many market participants understand just how much the ground has shifted over the last quarter – particularly in relation to Energy pricing. The first few months of 2022 are going to be about the market learning what the new landscape looks like, and how it adapts to a new and changing economic reality. This new year is going to be fundamentally different and more challenging in terms of how to invest “smart” in a new and utterly changed financial market environment.
On the plus side, the outlook for 2022 has rosy overtones: Increasingly it looks like the back of Coronavirus has been broken. Infections of the new Omicron might be running out of control around the globe, but new variant hospitalisations and deaths are way down…

Joe Rogan podcast reaches millions more than cable news: report
“That’s because he doesn’t lie. Or talk down to his audience,” psychologist Dr. Jordan Peterson commented on Rogan’s ratings.
Joe Rogan has more than three times as many people per episode as his next greatest competitor “Tucker Carlson Tonight” on Fox News, according to newly released data… ”Joe Rogan has completely disrupted the legacy media,” financial commentator Anthony Pompliano tweeted with a picture of Rudkowski’s graph. “Right now, Joe Rogan is the most dangerous man alive in the intellectual arena. In terms, that he is the most genuine pursuer of truth that has a big audience – therefore people will keep listening,” he later said on “The Best Business Show.”
https://justthenews.com/accountability/media/joe-rogan-podcast-reaches-millions-more-cable-news-report French President Macron is interpreted as saying that he intends to make life harder on the unvaccinated in France, that “they are not French” and he will “piss them off” until they comply with the vaccine mandate. He is actually describing “urinating upon them” as his plan, humiliating them while forcing their compliance with the edict, not “angering them” as the term usually means.
Can this harsh action be carried through successfully? The facts are building against vaccination-by-injection, as it does not prevent infections, hospitalizations or deaths, causes side effects including death, and the COVID fear-pandemic appears to be in its final act.
French elections approach. Is Macron sacrificing his chances intentionally or unintentionally? He is expendable/replaceable to his owners.

Denial of Early Covid-19 Treatment – A Crime Against Humanity
The Ethical Skeptic presents that people were forced into a medical experiment to accept “vaccines” or “nothing” without informed consent, and were systematically denied the other option of not being in the experiment, but taking available antiviral treatments early. This was intentional, and vast and rigorously coordinated through threats and coercion of medical professionals, and control of mass-communications.Denial of Early Covid-19 Treatment – A Crime Against Humanity
Revised German government data shows Omicron prefers the “vaccinated”, but not by as much as it initially appeared.
The revised data from the German government revealed a 78.6 percent vaccinated rate of Omicron cases.
Originally, only 186 people contracting Omicron were unvaccinated in the entire sample, showing that vaccinated individuals were over 21 times as likely to contract the COVID-19 variant. The new RKI numbers reported 1,097 unvaccinated people, meaning the vaccinated were 3.7 times more likely to contract the variant.REPORT: Nearly 80% of Omicron Cases are in Vaccinated People.

https://stevekirsch.substack.com/p/unprecedented-deaths-in-indiana-forBlog is up with another recent homestead construction photo of the “mini-McMansion”
https://www.johndayblog.com/2022/01/fire-fights-fire.htmlCoronavirus accumulates about 1 RNA base-mutation every 1-2 weeks. This is a pretty steady time clock in the natural world.
Most of these don’t make a difference in anything, because they lack “meaning”. They are either “nonsense mutations” or “non-structural”mutations.
If a mutation makes the virus not work right, it is not carried forward because that virus does not reproduce or spread well.“Sense mutations” are different, and when they enhance viral “fitness” to replicate and spread, they create “variants of interest”.
All of the “variants of interest” actually become family-clans of interest very soon, lineages, because each virus mutates every week or two..
As large portions of a population began to be “vaccinated” against January 2020 spike-protein, some random viral mutations allowed viruses to compete better in this group.
It is natural with non-sterilizing-vaccines that this evolutionary pressure is placed on viruses. In March and April 2021 in San Francisco, they already saw different “strains” specializing in “vaccinated” and “unvaccinated” people.Delta COVID in India, with a low percentage of vaccinated people, and was stopped well by ivermectin, zinc, doxycycline and vitamin-D. It traveled after that, and became good at infecting vaccinated as well as unvaccinated, because it exploits some of the antibodies produced by spike-protein vaccines for “facilitation”.
Omicron seems to do that even better.Omicron is almost certainly another military-lab-release, because it has so many functional mutations, mostly in the spike protein, and it has so very few random, “nonsense mutations”. The number of mutations from its closest known relative puts it’s divergence back to March 2018 at least, and that is if they were random.
They are absolutely not random. They are functional mutations. They make the spike protein vaccines useless against its spike protein, but the facilitating antibodies work fine. It is also about 3 times as effective at spreading through a population as Delta.Omicron appears to be a nearly-ideal free-range vaccine at this point. It provides good immunity to Delta and prior variants. (Is it a “friendly” counter-attack?)
Sun Tzu’s “Art Of War” book, the most studied book on war, though ancient, classifies “War By Fire” as the most dangerous kind of attack, because it cannot be predicted or controlled after it has begun. The spread of the SARS-CoV-2 lab virus clan throughout the world, since at least mid 2019 (as saved specimens have revealed) seems certain to have been started by a leak, and or releases of “gain-of-function” viruses, created in labs in the US, Canada and China, and shared between them. (There is no reason why the massive Iranian national mourning events after the assassination of General Soleimani by a US dron in Iraq could not have been seeded with this military virus, which was already spreading in the world, but had a massive spread during those gatherings.)
Just as a fire is started ahead of a forest fire, to burn up forest before the big fire gets to an area, to give it nothing to spread into, this may be a counter-fire military action. mRNA “vaccines” have not done that job, nor have viral-vector DNA vaccines. Chinese Sinovac and other “traditional” vaccines appear to be safer, not implicated in so many deaths, but do not appear very strong or sustained and are not “sterilizing”, either.
Omicron appears to function as a very infectious and “mostly harmless” free-vaccine. This will naturally thwart the COVID-fear-mass-formation-totalitarian battle plan, by eliminating COVID-fear.
This meme of Omicron-as-the-end-of-COVID is spreading in the financial world, already. The world of finance is going through changes as growth is transitioning to “de-growth”, and none of the dominant economic models will work in this new paradigm. They all assume growth.
Fuel and resource limits won’t permit economic growth now.Jenny and I have resumed ivermectin-based-treatment almost 24 hours ago, and are doing well, without fever, and with normal vital signs. We will continue until we seem fully recovered, though that seemed to be the case before, and we had recurrence of viral illness and positive nasal swab tests yesterday. It is more likely overall that we have Delta, but cannot be completely certain. It was dominant in Texas when the first family-member of our “cluster” got sick 12/21/21. Our hospitalized family member reports feeling better and also sounds better on the phone this morning.

He could really use certain relevant actuarial data…

5G regulation controversy: “Should we drop cals or airplanes?”
The Aerospace Vehicle Systems Institute (AVSI) and the Radio Technical Commission for Aeronautics (RTCA) did independent evaluations and found that 5G base stations on the ground as well as 5G phones on a plane operating in the new frequencies may well overwhelm the radio altimeter filters and may lead to their misreporting of the distance to the ground.
When that happens the results can be deadly:
Turkish Airlines Flight 1951 was a passenger flight that crashed during landing at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport, the Netherlands, on 25 February 2009, resulting in the deaths of nine passengers and crew, including all three pilots.
…The crash was caused primarily by the aircraft’s automated reaction, which was triggered by a faulty radio altimeter. This caused the autothrottle to decrease the engine power to idle during approach. The crew noticed this too late to take appropriate action to increase the thrust and recover the aircraft before it stalled and crashed.
Aircraft builders like Airbus and Boeing and altimeter producers like Garmin have asked the FCC to limit the use on the 5G frequencies near to the altimeter frequency ranges.
The FCC said no:
Aviation industry concerns were detailed by AVSI in an October 2019 study. Garmin cited AVSI’s research in an FCC filing this week, saying it showed altimeters “subjected to simulated 5G interference sources” output misleading data on a plane’s height above the ground, and this incorrect data “would not be able to be detected by downstream safety-critical systems that enable safe operation of aircraft in all weather conditions.”
The FCC found that AVSI’s report “does not demonstrate that harmful interference would likely result under reasonable scenarios (or even reasonably ‘foreseeable’ scenarios to use the parlance of AVSI).”
For the FCC to do something one must prove that something harmful is likely to happen under reasonable scenarios.
That is a good approach when the potential harm is a dropped phone call.
But it is a bad approach when a potential harm is a dropped passenger airplane.
Dropped airplanes are what the FAA is concerned about...
Starting January 5 2022 the telecommunication providers will activate the new frequencies on their 5G base stations in 45 major cities. If there is even the slightest hint that these may interfere, as is expected, with any radio altimeter the FAA will block any night or restricted visibility traffic to and from the related airport.
”Stay tuned”, I guess…

Jenny and I finished our courses of ivermectin Friday and Saturday. She had the longer course of treatment, since it began with exposure, but finished first.
We both got gradual recurrence of symptoms after finishing ivermectin, notably starting with a metallic taste and increasing phlegmatic cough, and advancing to mild headaches, fatigue and mild temperature elevation (100.3F for me last night).Jenny got a positive COVID rapid test this morning. Nobody showed up at the test site I went to. I waited for half an hour. I guess they are out sick.
About 5 hours later, I did get a rapid Abbot test, which turned immediately and darkly positive as the nasal-swab juice hit the test line. Not everybody will understand how immediately happy this made me feel to finally have a positive COVID test result in my hands.
It’s not on a database anywhere, but I’m posting a picture of it, taken in the car when we got home.One of the family members that Jenny got exposed to before Christmas got better, and the other one got worse after finishing ivermectin, and hospitalized after a few days off of it, even though the full 5 day course was taken, and all of the other medicines and supplements were also continued.
We have started back on ivermectin. I feel good 5 hours later, and will report our response to treatment.
This extended persistence and resurgence of the virus, whichever strain we have, comes as news-to-me.
Live and learn…Dr. McCollough Says Outpatient Treatments For COVID-19 Have Been Suppressed
“Lots of messaging on the vaccine, but zero mentioning on treatment, none. And it’s been from the very beginning. There is a theme here, I hope everyone’s starting to get the theme. There is zero effort, interest, promotion, or care about early treatment, people who are sick with COVID-19,” said McCollough.
“But there is a complete and total focus on people who don’t have COVID-19 and giving them a vaccine.”
https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/dr-mccollough-says-outpatient-treatments-covid-19-have-been-suppressedCharles Hugh Smith figures 2022 is the year of consequences, of the system breaking. Yeah…
https://www.oftwominds.com/blogjan22/surprise1-22.htmlThe Federal Reserve managed to suppress interest rates but it doesn’t control risk or consequence. On the systems level, all that central banks accomplished was to transfer all the risk piling up as a consequence of their incentivizing of speculation to the entire financial system itself.
By incentivizing speculation and feeding the belief that assets can never decline, the central banks have implicitly made a promise they cannot keep: consequences have been extinguished along with risk. One consequence of incentivizing speculation and backstopping the biggest players’ bets is that the biggest players have garnered the vast majority of the gains (see chart below). This vast differential has generated unprecedented wealth inequality, a concentration of wealth in the hands of the few at the expense of the many that has completely corrupted the nation’s political and social orders.
2022 is the year that the second-order effects come home to roost: all the risk that has been transferred to the financial system as a whole will generate consequences the Fed and other central banks are unable to control. The stupendously toxic incentives to speculate will generate consequences the Fed and other central banks are unable to control. The stupendously toxic wealth inequality will generate consequences the Fed and other central banks are unable to control.
The hubris and magical thinking of the central bankers has infected the entire populace, the majority of whom now confuse magical thinking with optimism. The belief that central banks can extinguish risk and consequence and the second-order effects of those consequences is magical thinking. The belief that asset bubbles will keep expanding because of the omnipotence of central banks is magical thinking.

…But Russia’s position is that the West merely abide by promises made soon after the collapse of the Soviet Union; instead, it’s seen NATO encroach up to its doorstep in eastern Europe and the Baltics from the mid-2000s on to now. For example, among the current demands on the table is for Brussels to rescind its prior pledges to put Ukraine and Georgia on paths to NATO membership, with Kremlin officials repeatedly affirming this would be a “red line” requiring drastic “action”.

There is a good picture of us at the “mini-mcmansion” homestead-addition in Yoakum for the last sunset of 2021. https://www.johndayblog.com/2021/12/sunset-on-2021.html More pictures later.
Time Travelers,
Years are sometimes better in retrospect, or maybe just more tolerable without the anticipatory tension and anxiety. I think this will have been the last year that anybody could even make themselves believe that things would eventually “go back to normal”.
I’m feeling better about 2021 since I finally caught and quickly got over COVID, thanks to ivermectin, vitamin-D, zinc, quercetin and lecithin, all of which you can buy at a pharmacy and/or feedstore, depending on what your feedstore carries in the supplement-for-humans department.
Jenny did even better on post exposure ivermectin treatment, never having fever or severe fatigue.There was a lot of tension with the creation of a lower class of humans, “the unvaccinated”, which I morally had to join.
There was the inevitable firing to exclude me from the good, compliant people at the clinic.
The dramatic sneak-attack firing of the gardener story is here: https://www.johndayblog.com/2021/10/go-down-gardening.htmlI am hearing that has not worked well. I know some very good nurses left because of the change in politics.
I wish everybody well who still serves there, and know that many still hold me as a friend and colleague.We have squandered our savings and my modest pension savings from the clinic upon the “mini-McMansion” addition to our homestead in Yoakum, which is not actually finished, but Boy does it look finished from the outside!
We are making arrangements to bring the inside into completion in this coming year, the sooner the better, but the initial rush phase is over except some touch-ups.
Thanks to those helping us with this!Retrospectively Yours,

This is very well written and not brief, so I will encapsulate.
The COVID pandemic is being used as a tool to bring about a specific change in the global economic system, which supports the digital-electronic information network.
The financial system is failing, which is inevitable, and the electronic information network is relied on in all aspects of human communication, commerce and endeavor.
Maintaining support of the digital information system requires a replacement financial system. The WEF proposes global central bank digital currency, which central bankers will control at will.
This will be initiated in a crisis through UBI,universal basic income, through smart-pohnes. Electronic money will soon be the only form of money..
This money will control all who use it. They might receive and might have it removed from them, or restricted for any reason.
People could be excluded from economy and travel easily.
Individual initiative would only be permitted as it served this global centralized system.
Individual threats could be eliminated through economic shunning, or apprehended in ;erson, based upon their location coordinates.
I will point out that this system sustains an expensive upper layer of cost, the extraction of profits at the top by bankers and other financial capitalists.
That cost is paid by the vast majority of humans, who will live in subservience and own nothing”.
I see that the COVID-emergency narrative is weakening. Official pronouncements about Omicron are intentionally vague and open to multiple interpretations this week. This tells me that the COVID-Emergency control-narrative is breaking, and there is unease about what to say now, and how it will look next month. We need to press hard and continuously and openly for a more human and cooperative “crowd-sourced” solution to the end of growth-economy.Ellen Brown presents an alternative strategy to support the electronic information infrastructure, without micromanaging every human to death. Huge loans, for extraction of wealth through financial attacks on productive companies, need to stop, to support the real economy. Small to medium company loans and personal loans, for economically constructive enterprises need to be increased. Bankers and bank employees should not be rewarded for extracting wealth, and should get ordinary pay. The Bank of North Dakota and German community banking practices are instructive.
Ms. Brown advocates less extraction, more local control, and incentivization of low cost loans to real-economy enterprises, letting speculative financial capitalism wane and wither on the vine.
…Small companies account for 64 percent of new U.S. jobs; yet in most U.S. manufacturing sectors, productivity growth is substantially below the standards set by Germany, and many U.S. SMEs are not productive enough to compete with the cost advantages of Chinese and other low-wage competitors. Why?
Werner observes that Germany exports nearly as much as China does, although the German population is a mere 6% of China’s. The Chinese also have low-wage advantages. How can German small firms compete when U.S. firms cannot? Werner credits Germany’s 1,500 not-for-profit/community banks, the largest number in the world. Seventy percent of German deposits are with these local banks – 26.6% with cooperative banks and 42.9% with publicly-owned savings banks called Sparkassen, which are legally limited to lending in their own communities. Together these local banks do over 90% of SME lending. Germany has more than ten times as many banks engaged in SME lending as the UK, and German SMEs are world market leaders in many industries.
Small banks lend to small companies, while large banks lend to large companies – and to large-scale financial speculators. German community banks were not affected by the 2008 crisis, says Werner, so they were able to increase SME lending after 2008; and as a result, there was no German recession and no increase in unemployment.
China’s success, too, Werner attributes to its large network of community banks. Under Mao, China had a single centralized national banking system. In 1982, guided by Deng Xiaoping, China reformed its money system and introduced thousands of commercial banks, including hundreds of cooperative banks. Decades of double-digit growth followed. “Window guidance” was also used: harmful bank credit creation for asset transactions and consumption were suppressed, while productive credit was encouraged.
Werner’s recommendations for today’s economic conditions are to reform the money system by: banning bank credit for transactions that don’t contribute to GDP; creating a network of many small community banks lending for productive purposes, returning all gains to the community; and making bank behavior transparent, accountable and sustainable. He is chairman of the board of Hampshire Community Bank, launched just this year, which lays out the model. It includes no bonus payments to staff, only ordinary modest salaries; credit advanced mainly to SMEs and for housing construction (buy-to-build mortgages); and ownership by a local charity for the benefit of the people in the county, with half the votes in the hands of the local authorities and universities that are its investors...
[Municipal bond defaults can be avoided, also.] All of this could be done without new legislation. The Federal Reserve has statutory authority under the Federal Reserve Act to lend to municipal borrowers for a period of up to six months. It could just agree to roll over these loans for a fixed period of years. Bhatti and Alston observe that under the 2020 CARES Act, the Fed was given permission to make up to $500 billion in indefinite, long-term loans to municipal borrowers, but it failed to act on that authority to the extent allowed. Loans were limited to no more than three years, and the interest rate charged was so high that most municipal borrowers could get lower rates on the open municipal bond market...
[The crisis which would “necessitate” the emergency imposition of global central bank digital currency by financial elites and central bankers can be avoided.]
Playing with matches that could trigger a $30 trillion debt bomb is obviously something the Fed should try to avoid. Prof. Werner would probably argue that its policy mistake, like Japan’s in the 1980s, has been to inject credit so that it has gone into speculative assets, inflating asset prices. The Fed’s liquidity fire hose needs to be directed at local production. This can be done through local community or public banks, or by making near-zero interest loans to state and local governments, perhaps mediated through a National Infrastructure Bank.

Thanks. I spent a lot of time resting in bed Monday and Tuesday, completely ok with resting and meditating peacefully with my headache.
Monday I woke up with bronchial irritation, and the typical mild COVID symptoms progressed. I took zinc, quercetin and lecithin, along with my usual vitamin-D and 81 mg aspirin, and a boost of vitamin-D. I improved some by the next morning, but not as much as I wanted, so I took 0.4 mg/kg of ivermectin, the dose the FLCCC folks are now advising, twice the usual dose for parasites. By mid afternoon I felt much better. I did continue everything else.
By yesterday (Wednesday) morning I awoke feeling pretty close to normal, and took that same dose of ivermectin again. I had a pretty normal busy day yesterday, driving to Yoakum to deal with house construction, electrical wiring and inspection. I masked, talked outdoors, told everybody that I was recovering on ivermectin-based treatment and did not want to infect them. Jenny and I walked for 1.3 miles when I got home, both of us feeling good. I had no fever at all and only a lisght headache at bedtime, which resolved without Tylenol.
I am continuing treatment, and stepping down my ivermectin dose to about .25 mg/kg per day for 3 more doses. I never did begin an antibiotic in this stepwise progression of adding treatments, so no doxycycline or azithromycin. I did so well so quickly without it, that I considered it not necessary in my case.
Likewise, Jenny did so well with ivermectin-only post exposure prophylaxis, starting a few hours after exposure, that she also is taking ivermectin, zinc, quercetin and lecithin. She has felt normal for a couple of days now.
Your mileage may vary. We were in a unique position to begin things very early. We knew the initial exposure she had to her family members.
Having your preparations made, as per this post from last week is prudent: https://www.johndayblog.com/2021/12/otc-covid-rxs-for-omicron.html@Oxymoron: How doyou process honey?

@Zerosum: Doing much better this afternoon, after adding ivermectin this morning, clearly better.
@Hexadec: “Smuggling” indeed! I take offense, sir of madam.
That being said, the doses of melatonin that help are really high and might induce hibernation. Jenny cruises along well and I am now rapidly improving.World Health Organization (WHO) Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus Said “vaccine boosters are used to kill children, which isn’t right” and just went right on talking.

Catching Up,
Omicron incubates more quickly to symptoms than prior strains do, maybe 4 days instead of 5 days.
Jenny got exposed last Wednesday when she carried COVID medicines and supplements to family in San Antonio and stayed a half hour making sure everything was understood and arranged.
She got mild symptoms Saturday/Sunday, but we had put her on daily ivermectin already, so it has stayed fairly mild.
I woke up sick yesterday morning, after sensing something faintly wrong the previous day.I began taking zinc and quercetin-with-lecithin at noon yesterday, and again last night (3 times per day dosing).
My symptoms have been coarse irritation in my chest airways, cough, headache, aches in all my little muscles, headache, fatigue and some increased temperature. My fever peaked at bedtime, with Temp 101.0F. I took 2 extra strength Tylenol and felt better this morning, though symptoms again increased somewhat.
My temp is 98.8F now, and I’ll see if it goes up if I feel worse. That’s how it was last night.I have added ivermectin to my treatment this morning, judging that I have improved some with zinc, quercetin and lecithin, but would like to improve faster and better.
I am naturally curious as to what I will notice, taking things one step at a time. Jenny continues to feel closer and closer to normal, never having had more than mild symptoms, similar to “cedar fever” and a bit more of aching/cramping in the areas which are still recovering from surgery, so the ivermectin has seemingly been relatively protective. I presume that I caught it from her, since the timing is right. She had a negative nasal swab yesterday and a negative flu.
It seems that the viral load in her nose is very low. That’s good.We are lounging around with fairly mild COVID, went for a nice warm afternoon walk yesterday, and are eating fresh vegetables.
I’ve considered taking a couple more Tylenol this morning, but I’m not feeling progressively worse, and have no fever, so I won’t.

I’ve been seeing if I can tell if meditation helps my immune system, as I have read.
I can meditate while lying around.
I am not feeling fearful or threatened, just achy and unmotivated.
I’m pretty curious about all of this. It’s quite interesting to finally explore it with my own body.Viral Incubator

We ended up with Jerry (Warren Commission) Ford and Nelson (shoot-the-bird) Rockefeller.@D.Benton Smith: Goldilocks homesteading, “just right”. Yoakum has 6000 people, a freight line, 3 hardware stores, a good grocery store, and Czech/German farming roots to the 1830s. It was never a slave town. Soil is good. Climate is tolerable if you can stand 90 degrees with 90% humidity some nights, and have good shade in the daytime.
There is no ground water to tap. That’s a potential problem.
People used to collect water in cisterns.
Potatoes and sweet potatoes in the ground never get stolen by armies. Avoid having more than a little of what armies want to steal. Cive it to ’em. Be nice about it, I guess…@VP Gary: Man there are a lot of depopulation-mechanism waves washing over this little bay we are in!
Get a second home somewhere and start fixing it up. (Yoakum is 2 hours from Houston, 2 hours from Austin and 2 hours from San Antonio, off the radar)
Get a house that does not need much work if you can. It’s hard to get work done in rural areas. You meet thieves with meth and alcohol problems first…
You can search regional agricultural maps of soil type, and look up the groundwater availability of local water supplies. Google maps satellite view has a lot of detail these days, and can be very instructive.
You don’t want more than an acre of good soil at the edge of town, I’ll guess.
That’s a lot of physical work, already.
@Oroboros: Spiro Agnew; everybody knew he was mob, like Bibi Rebozo (sp?). Nixon was actually pretty sharp, and very well prepared to be president. He knew what happened to JFK and why, and was very cagey. Dick Nixon had a hard damned time, even though he was less than honest. I think he tried to do his best a lot of the time.@Herr Werner, Both COVID (if bloodborne) and vaccines can infect and hrm the heart muscle cessls and their support cells, the pericardiocytes. Maybe 10% of young, healthy athletes get systemic COVID, but all “vaccinations” put spike protein in the blood, and the cells that are making it get attacked by lymphocytes, sometimes other cells, too, autoimmune disease.
This covers that, and also the question about autopsies (rare events): As Evidence of Pathogenic Priming Mounts, Calls for New Medical Approaches to Mute Autoimmunity Must Be Addressed
A compilation of evidence is disturbing. Further mass casualities might be preventable.
Pathogenic priming, as originally described, is the act of exposing people (or animals) to epitopes that match human proteins, leading to the inducement of autoreactogenic antibodies that attack tissues anywhere in the body…
A German pathologist performed autopsies on fifteen post-inoculation patients who died, and found that >90% had their organs attacked by their immune systems (autoimmunity)…
The conclusion (if supported by further data) is that essentially EVERY inoculant recipient suffers damage, with more damage after each shot. The damage could be cumulative, and the shots may be synergistic. Given the seriousness of the types of damage (autoimmune diseases, cancer, re-emergent dormant infections, clotting/strokes, cardiac damage, etc.), these effects will translate into lifespan reduction, which should be counted as deaths from the inoculations. So, in the USA, where ~200M people have been fully inoculated, the number of deaths will not be the 10,000 or so reported in VAERS, or 500,000-1,000,000 scaled-up deaths from VAERS, but could be closer to tens of millions (or more) when the inoculation effects play out! …
Are we headed for the situation where the ~30% unvaxxed will be devoting their lives to operating whatever is left of the economic infrastructure and serving as caretakers for the vaxxed?
https://popularrationalism.substack.com/p/as-evidence-of-pathogenic-priming@Saul Goodman: I’m really wondering about the test results these days. They are not correlating well with symptoms and history in some cases.

Yet another independent study confirms over 150K Americans killed by the COVID vaccines

The New Normal – Pandemics of the Vaccinated?
Are we beginning to see further evidence of ADE or OAS occurring in the UK data?
…So, what does the data from the UK tell us today. Firstly, those who have been infected with COVID-19 and become reinfected are more likely to test positive for an infection compatible with the Omicron variant, compared with those who test positive with their first infections. More shockingly, when you delve into the data itself, THE MORE YOU VACCINATE, the more likely you are to get Omicron… As the vaccination status increases, the likelihood of testing positive with Omicron increases from 1.57 in one dose individuals, to 2.26 in two dosed and 4.45 in 3 dosed. Due to the small dataset, this is only a modelled likelihood of testing positive with Omicron. (could be better, could be worse)
https://nakedemperor.substack.com/p/the-new-normal-pandemics-of-the-vaccinatedNew studies show that the COVID vaccines damage your immune system, likely permanently
The vaccines are making it more likely you’ll be infected with Omicron 90 days after you are fully vaccinated...
Worried about Omicron? Guess what? After 90 days, the vaccine they gave you is going to make you MORE likely to get infected from Omicron, not less…
In short, you are getting a short term benefit against Delta, but at the expense of a degradation of your overall immunity to everything else...
This paper means we will need to inject people every 30 days if we want to “protect” them. Based on the harm that the vaccines do to our immune system, it’s likely that the needed interval will shorten with each booster.
If people don’t get boosted as required, they will be MORE vulnerable to Delta and Omicron than if they weren’t vaccinated. That’s what NEGATIVE vaccine efficacy means. It doesn’t mean the protection wears off (like we were told). It means the OPPOSITE of what you were told: it means the vaccines helps the virus to infect you (by suppressing your immune system, probably permanently each time we are injected according to Dr. Ryan Cole). It means we were lied to.

https://popularrationalism.substack.com/p/as-evidence-of-pathogenic-primingMy impression is that Omicron is also a lab created strain, with the same “fingerprints” of all functional-mutations and very few random-mutations compared to a nearest ancestor which would have to have diverged over years ago. I already think Omicron is the military-vaccine. Protects from “future strains”…
US Army Creates Single Vaccine Against All COVID & SARS Variants, Researchers Say
Within weeks, Walter Reed researchers expect to announce that human trials show success against Omicron—and even future strains.
https://www.defenseone.com/technology/2021/12/us-army-creates-single-vaccine-effective-against-all-covid-sars-variants/360089/Omicron was over 94% of cases of COVID in Texas by last week. “Current” statistics are not really current, so rapidly does this propagate.
Omicron is said to spread about 3 times more effectively than the prior strains, due to better binding and replication in the upper airways.
It is much less likely to be fatal, since it does not bind the deep lung tissue well, so is less prone to spread into the bloodstream and other organs.
