Every ounce of credibility was lavished on the ‘vaccines’ being safe and effective
As mandates are being overthrown (the US Senate, narrowly ended the non-emerging ‘Emergency Powers’, a single vote along party lines, France is ditching COVID mandates except on public transport and care homes (a ‘macaron’ for Macron’s peevishness) and yet we must not lightly let pass the absurdities we have been besieged with by the ‘illiterati’.
First, every ounce of credibility was lavished on the ‘vaccines’ being safe and effective. Not only so, but they argued it was dangerous ‘not’ to be ‘vaccinated’ and we had to jab anything that moved by any means possible. Billions succumbed.
Their credibility is in tatters as it is now clear that the ‘vaccines’ do not prevent re-infection or spread, are showcasing ‘negative efficacy’ re Omicron (UK reporting re percentage of those ‘vaccinated’ in hospitals and suffering serious consequences from a resolutely ‘mild’ variant is absolutely devastating to the narrative).
And these folks attacked with unrestrained zealotry even the most credentialed who expressed fact-based scepticism. They mocked, scorned, deplatformed and vilified anyone not besotted with the tale of impervious ‘vaccine’ safety.
Omicron has publicly humiliated them and all their tap dancing and rain dancing, did nothing to undermine the data that emerged at the outset from South Africa.
My way or the highway
Until recently, doctors treated patients as individuals, with distinctive medical characteristics. There was no panacea that magically alleviated all suffering far and wide.
‘Vaccine’ administration historically has been fraught with pitfalls, even where there have been assiduous safety trials. And people all have different risks. So, until the ‘vaccine as unicorn’, pharma profit bloated assertions came to hold sway, the State did not presume to intervene between physician and patient.
The obsessive insistence to even ‘vaccinate’ those with ‘natural immunity’, with new studies only corroborating what we had established prior re the robustness, sturdiness and longevity of such protection, shows we became both medically and morally unhinged, with a political and profit spurred mania to ‘vaccinate’ every living human on the planet, when only a small percentage of the highly vulnerable should even have been considered.
Evidence?
Just recently, a massive study reported in “Science Direct” compares the mortality rates of patients treated with the ludicrously smeared Nobel Prize winning medicine, Ivermectin, versus the ‘official’ treatment of Remdesivir, which has multiple concerning side effects, including renal failure. Yet again, Ivermectin is categorically associated with palpable reduction in mortality. Nary a mainstream whisper.
Lockdowns were implemented (after being shunned since the middle Ages) over a crackpot model, never tested and completely inapplicable to an airborne pathogen that had already spread!
And then more crackpots from the UK got into the mix. Neil Ferguson is famed for his delusionally inaccurate epidemiological predictions, where the ‘magnitude’ of his errors has consistently been greater than the total ‘actual deaths’ from the alleged ‘pandemics’.
In 2001, he predicted 150,000 could die from foot-and-mouth disease (200 actually died), 2002 he gave us the terrifying prediction of 50,000 likely to die from mad cow disease (177 deaths came to pass). In 2005, 150 million were at risk from bird flu as per Neil, he even briefly flirted with 200 million (a total of 282 people died worldwide between 2003 and 2009). With a tinge of greater sobriety in 2009 the ‘reasonable worst-case scenario’ relating to swine flu was 65,000 British deaths (457 actually occurred).
Yet his dizzying inaccuracy and those of his sage peers, who we now learn may have been intoxicated by the wrong data, have not deterred him from forecasting 10,000 hospital admissions per day from Omicron. Weeks later, it was about 100 per week per million.
Masks were against public policy guidelines worldwide through 2019. No scientific documentation emerged to challenge that. Study after study finds no material impact. There are concerns about infections stockpiling on the masks and impact on oxygen flow in people. Jurisdictions with mask mandates have had soaring infections (Iceland, Israel, California, France, Singapore, you name it), but ‘evidence’ is not sought, just virtue signalling.
The ‘vaccine’ trials which touted efficacy that was on a ‘relative’ basis, which then jabbed the placebo control group in violation of all testing norms, which excluded anyone who might actually be vulnerable (aged, with comorbidities), are a transcendent hoax and the deceptions became more blatant and darker when it came to kids (the paralysis of Maddie de Garay along with the infliction of agony and devastating mental/emotional trauma for a population at virtually zero risk).
Why Full Safety Trials are needed
The ‘secret’ is most doctors, surgeons and GPs have no idea how the COVID ‘vaccines’ are purported to ‘work’. As one specialist suggested, just go and ask any of these ‘experts’ about codon optimisation, proline swaps in the ‘vaccines’ spike protein, self-assembling lipids, catatonic lipids to neutral in a neutral PH, spike bio distribution and so on.
And any medical expert worth their salt will confess the immune system is a lattice work of inter-relationships that encompass the entire human anatomy: cells, pathways, chemicals. Hence it is virtually impossible to predict how a novel product will interact over time with our anatomical biomes. ‘Experts’ make predictions, but robust testing has been the bedrock of medical practice because we do not know what we do not know, in this field or any other.
And these same ‘experts’ either genuinely, or to advance personal gain, got everything else wrong too: masks, lockdowns, distancing, the fiction of asymptomatic spread, the Ct (Cycle Thresholds) being set low enough to keep the PCR Test from being utterly absurd, risk stratification, seasonal impact, mortality rate…yet somehow, they are ‘suddenly’ blessed with rock solid knowledge about experimental gene therapies?

Failure to treat
It was never much of a plague, but certainly the medical ‘failure’ and public health ‘flops’ were legion. The government overlords waged war on effective, cheap repurposed FDA-approved drugs (Florida has just become the first State to officially ‘bless’ their use). That roughly 20% of US prescriptions are for off-label uses didn’t deter this, that if truly this was ‘novel’, doctors have to be allowed to exercise their judgment and see what works, was self-evident but ignored too.
For the first time in documented medical history there was a systematic injunction to ‘not treat’, to do nothing until people presented themselves unable to breathe at ICU. Mercifully, thousands ignored this, and remained ‘doctors’ not Pharma funded hacks. Once more, here is Dr. Tyson:
“If you see inflammation, use anti-inflammatories; if you see blood clots, treat blood clots; if you see pneumonia, treat pneumonia; if you see hypoxemia, treat hypoxemia; if you know its viral, use antivirals; if you do nothing, quit practicing.” 10,000 cured patients later, his protocol along with Dr. Fareed’s has more than proven its wisdom and applicability.
And here we come to the rub of the vast ‘expertise’ confusion. Consulting an ‘expert’ is only relevant if they will apply said expertise to actively and openly analyse the malaise presented. When 100% of the medical ‘establishment’ parrots virtually 100% of the same talking points, then we know vigorous debate and scientific exploration has been invaded by other marauders.
As Dr. Peter McCullough, a champion of COVID treatment, who has been attacked, litigated against and more, for the sin of seeking to treat patients and bring actual clinical findings to the fore, pointed out, by now, there should be COVID treatment protocols at every prestigious university, with outpatient ‘best practice’ and prophylaxis regimens. Instead, we have none, zero! NIH in the US, UK authorities, WHO bloviating, has become the untested gold standard, irrespective of results and outcomes elsewhere.
Has there been a single medical conference on treatment, where doctors who have had global successes come together to share their views? Actually, there have been, organised by outlier media organisations and bodies bringing together courageous practitioners who refuse to be cowed.
But nothing mainstream at all. There is the issue of censoring dissent, but there is the issue of no dissent from within being forthcoming at all. The river of inquiry became a moat of dogma supporting pharma evangelism.
How do you ignore Risk Stratification?
From the outset, it was evident there was severe age and comorbidity stratification of risk. The risk analysis shared by Italy and the Diamond Princess Cruise ship both testified to this, and the median age of death globally asserted to be at least ‘with’ if not always ‘from’ COVID is roughly 82, above life expectancy.
Worldwide clinical experience substantiated this subsequently, still not a mainstream peep. You cannot blow up a planet on misleading information of this magnitude and say it was to limit transmission, as if dictatorial assertion is justified and unlimited emergency powers with it.
COVID metrics were balderdash too. There were insurance and financial incentives to classify anyone testing ‘positive’ (however spuriously) and dying, as being a ‘COVID death’. Deaths due to gunshots and alcohol poisoning were included in the US and UK and doubtless elsewhere.
COVID ‘cases’ were anointed due to viral debris or bits of random nucleotide junk over-amplified by PCR ‘tests’. Test positive percentages did not take into account COVID-recovering, or multiple tests to get out of quarantine and more. To date, there is no random seroprevalence sampling for the US. No autopsy has been conducted by the CDC for reported deaths tied to ‘vaccines’.
The failure to curate any rigorously defined metrics punctures both accuracy and precision. This is an utter debasement of the scientific method.
Natural Immunity
To deny ‘natural immunity’, to attempt to ‘define it out’ as WHO tried to do, is blatant and utterly illiterate. Anyone who has attended basic Biology is versed in the immune system. How does anyone think we have made it this far as a species without it?
Until Omicron, there was virtually no documented instance of reinfection, anywhere in the world. Even nursing homes had no second waves. Moreover, we have clinical evidence of ‘immune specific’ cells circulating in individuals from the 1918 Spanish Flu. In a more contemporary vein, documented clinical evidence of robust SARS-CoV-1 immunity 17 years later! And as SARS-CoV-2 was 80% genomically the same, how fanciful to assert a suspension of basic biological responses?
We also have ‘cross reactive immunity’ where experience with infections from other coronaviruses (responsible for common colds) provided immunising protection.
So now, we are confounded. If immunity from other coronaviruses offers significant neutralising benefits, the immune system will produce immune-specific cells against COVID. But somehow, we are told this is to be discounted?

A Tyranny of the Mediocre…or the Oblivious
James Bembridge in a fine piece in Country Squire Magazine rightly excoriates Nadine Dorries’ hopes that the UK will become ‘the safest place in the world to go online’ …safe for her it seems, for you will therefore never hear anything, if she has her way, that could discomfit the gibberish being peddled to keep nonsensical ‘emergency’ powers in play (all this time later, very little is ‘emerging’ that is not a rerun). Note, she wishes to criminalise publicising such ideas or conclusions or research, making it a ‘crime’ to disagree with her and the coterie of terrified peddlers of this claptrap.
Given criminality implies intent, one might have considered that a high bar to hurdle. Not for Nadine Dorries and her flock, for whom the suggestion seems to be that there is something seditious about ‘thinking’ at all.
Not to be outdone the US Homeland Security proclamation is on hand, that threatens you with being classified as a domestic terrorist for daring to undermine faith in the US government, which has already sacrificed much of that faith by having our children, on no evidence at all, despite adverse effects galore, treated as profit producing, potentially disposable experimental lab specimens.
And when anyone points this out, or that embalmers in the US (as reported by ‘domestic terrorist’ candidate Steve Kirsch) are saying they are seeing over 50% of those coming through their practices having ‘clots’ they have never seen before and which are not found in the ‘unvaccinated’, rather than rush to take tissue samples to see if there is anything at all to this potentially cataclysmic claim, let us ‘brand’ anyone saying so as a terrorist and thereby show that George Orwell was being far too modest in his fears.
James puts it grippingly: “Protecting the public from fictional ills is for the government’s own gratification. This sadistic paternalism is cheered on by the credulous and the mediocre; people who are happy to be relieved from the burden of thinking for themselves and to be granted the authority to persecute those who do.”
Unconditional Human Rights
There is the utter disdain implied in Covidian policies, determining who ‘matters’ and what illness or harm matters and what does not. July 2020, the UK government reported that 200,000 lives may be forfeit via lockdowns. The mandatory health measures went ahead.
WHO in November 2020 forecasted that lockdowns would lead to between 200,000 to 400,000 extra tuberculosis deaths worldwide (through interrupted vaccinations that actually work, missed diagnoses and diverted medics) and these mostly among children (virtually none of whom were at risk with COVID). Governments pulled the switch regardless. Foreknowledge of such consequences makes what was done a true crime.
Who bestows the right to impose suffering even if claimed to be ‘for your own safety?’ How many jobs are you entitled to destroy, how many homes? And add to the slaughterhouse life savings, broken marriages, children’s education and development stunted, careers capsized, mental health destroyed, opportunities irreparably
sacrificed all ‘for our own safety?’
Are the 1 in 10 Canadians reported by The Toronto Star who have contemplated suicide since the pandemic began (due to pandemic policies of course, not the pathogen), to be taken in our stride? How many globally are to be forced into poverty and starvation over cuckoo policies which delivered no net benefit (over 40 global studies testify to this) and which were not on any pandemic playbook until we capriciously genuflected to COVID theatre streamed from Wuhan?
September 2020, head of the World Food Program warned the equivalent of ‘400 million full-time jobs have been destroyed’. We look on, pathologically addicted to our destructive, fact-free COVID response escapades. Again, the virus is not culpable. It is the stripping of our rights, denying us the ability to manage the risks and priorities that attend living. Why were we infantilised? There has been no sustained excess mortality globally over these years – and certainly nothing unprecedented.
How many lives and livelihoods are we entitled to destroy over our panic? Or do those lives not matter as their predicament cannot be readily exploited as click-bait for ‘profitable’ paranoia?
Humans by virtue of their humanity are entitled to assess risks and priorities. When you have a virus with an infection survival rate of 99.97% for those under 20, 99.98% for 20 to 49, 99.5% for 50 to 69, and 94.6% for those over 70, it is hard to justify the derailing of life as we know it. And then we find lockdowns backfire, 72% of COVID deaths in Canada for example have been in long-term care facilities.
The most vulnerable, still only mildly so, especially if treated by those ‘dreaded’ but oh so effective therapeutics, would have readily self-isolated for a month or two, letting those not at risk acquire immunity that would protect everyone.
There is no clause in the Charter of Rights and Freedoms that denies access to your life rights, because hospitals have been mismanaged and may become temporarily overcrowded (primarily because we insist on not treating early) or because of our mania for ‘testing’ which then sends care givers away on 14 days of unfounded and unscientific isolation.
You are not entitled to sacrifice one group of people for another, it violates all premises of ethics. And that is in essence, with no facts and no grounding, what we have done, extrapolating and forecasting, until we are surrounded by unintended carnage. While inexorably, seasonally, via new ‘vaccine’ frustrating variants, COVID continues on, awaiting our sanity or the Omicron blessing of high infectiousness and mild lethality to finally render it endemic.

Addled wits and the Ukraine
And so here we are, in a futile, avoidable conflict that creates fresh conflagration in an already ravaged world. Nurtured and hatched by foolish politicians, civilians are left to weep in front of shattered homes and lives.
Putin’s insane meltdown, careening off the rails albeit after years of NATO taunting and provocation, leads him to madly invade a sovereign neighbour. The West, needing Russian energy sources, inflicts patchwork sanctions and kicks Russia out of the Eurovision Song Contest.
Wolfowitz, the architect of the calamitous Iraq War, was behind the degradation of Russia as a series of deranged policy initiatives. Unnecessary to inflame, as we had a bankrupt country with an economy the size of Italy’s. The Communist ideology was in tatters.
And now we dare not say anything that provoked this debacle. As Peter Hitchens writes: “But if I warn a child that if he annoys a wasp, it will sting him, am I supporting the wasp?”
The eastward expansion of NATO, necessitated by nothing, made Russia into a target. We created a pariah out of a country we refused to have a civilised relationship with. The Chinese trammelled their people’s desire for freedom, violated promises to Hong Kong and we just went along. In fact, we institutionalised their sad, mad, aberrant pandemic playbook.
We have to hope we can summon a greater devotion to facts as we navigate an unwinnable war (due to the nuclear stakes) and face down the frenzied froth of Putin’s intemperate invasion.
It is time to face the world armed with sanity and engaged in collaboration. There are real devils out there and they need courage and nerve to face, as opposed to those invented by our shoving our heads up our collective backsides over a trumped-up viral strain.
Mandates are crumbling. It seems Djokovic will be able to defend his title at Roland Garros after all. There are things to defend anew for all of us.
