Covid is a Global Propaganda Operation/Asia Pacific Today
An Australian interview with a professor of propaganda on what is happening and why.
Well worth watching (or listening):

CDC Director "What our vaccines can't do any more is prevent transmission"/CNN
Here is a 15 second clip of Rochelle Walensky talking to Wolf Blitzer:
She lies in the same sentence, claiming the vaccines still work "exceptionally well."
If they don't prevent transmission, you CANNOT USE PUBLIC HEALTH AND HERD IMMUNITY AS THE JUSTIFICATION FOR A MANDATE. At best, the vaccines might provide the recipient with some protection for a few months. But the downside is they might increase susceptibility or severity of disease later.
And when you add on the known and unknown short and long-term side effects, vaccination with an experimental product that went through minimal testing and poorly designed clinical trials just doesn't make sense.
All the bluster about mandates was designed to trick the public into getting vaccinated before the truth came out. Now it's out. Help your friends and family avoid these shots.
Remember: Your vaccine does NOT protect me, and it might not protect you either. Not for long. Then it might make things worse for you.

How many Covid-19 vaccine injuries has the federal government compensated?
Twelve thousand deaths have been reported to VAERS, along with hundreds of thousands of injuries.
There is only one way to get compensated for an injury, since the manufacturers have had their liability waived. That way is by filing with the Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program. There is a one year statute of limitations after a vaccination, so you need to hurry once your injury is believed to be due to a Covid vaccine.
How many people have been compensated? Zero
"As of August 2, 2021, the CICP has not compensated any COVID-19 countermeasures claims."
1700 total claims are pending. 686 claims have been filed for Covid vaccine injuries. Some have been adjudicated and denied, but we don't know how many. The longer that governments hide what they know about injury causation, the more will be denied.
In the 16 year history of this program, $6 million has been paid out for 29 claims. Only costs of medical care, lost wages and a death benefit can be claimed.
As Mary Holland once said, 'you have the right to file and be denied.'
Godfather Fauci says, "Give me that and I'd be really happy" after just describing the characteristics of ivermectin! If he can kill a few hundred thousand without blinking an eye, what else can you call him?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkMhqswIc20&t=107s
Fauci is asked about his ideal drug for Covid. And he lists these characteristics as his "Optimal Profile:"
- a pill that block a viral function
- oral, not injected
- minimal drug-drug interactions
- use for 7--10 days
- low toxicity
He points out you should
"take it early in the disease" and
"if you can keep that virus from going down into the lungs and to other organ systems, you can change that disease to a common cold type approach. We only need to knock out that virus for 7-10 days."
Folks, the ship is turning. Sad to say, too many died waiting. And Fauci the money man is not going to shill for a drug his agency can't patent. He'll instead extract more taxpayer money in a vain attempt to find this perfect drug--which a pharmacist just refused to dispense to a patient of mine, no doubt in part due to Fauci's criminal machinations.
But what will happen is that the concept of early treatment--not waiting it out--will enter the public consciousness. And some people will realize there is already a drug out there that can be used early.
While now Israel is saying 85-90% of those hospitalized with Covid (in a huge wave) were vaccinated. And 95% of those with severe disease are vaccinated. Israeli TV yesterday:

Covid Medical insanity, as described by an MD
August 6, 2021 (I don't have a URL for this accurate and succinct article.
Covid Medical insanity, as described by an MD
When did the world become insane? What is the reason for it? Big Brother? Depopulation? Or people in love with control?
I don't know and it's driving me nuts. But I've decided I'm tired of complaining about it to my friends and family and I'm willing to put my name on the line. If the woke culture wants to ruin me for speaking the truth, I guess I might as well just get it over with now.
I have been a physician for 24 years, a practicing ENT for 19 years. I have never before seen the medical establishment just stop thinking. Insanity is the new rule, and common sense cannot even be discussed.
From the beginning, 15 days to “flatten the curve,” I was shocked. We had never done this before, but perhaps this virus was really bad, so I gave the government the benefit of the doubt.
Then came Fauci.
He initially said social distancing didn't work, and masks were largely ineffective.
But by late March, he pronounced both masking and social distancing necessary. Weird...red flag.
What? So now I am alarmed.
I started researching the utility of masks. There were very good articles I found — one out of a respiratory center in Chicago, and another a good dental review. I bookmarked both of them. Less than a month later, the dental website was down, replaced by a text saying basically that their information is now irrelevant because of COVID. The Chicago article also had a disclaimer that previously wasn't there saying people shouldn't use their article politically. What? Don't use a scientifically derived article to make a scientifically based decision on the utility of masks? What the hell is going on?
Next comes PCR testing. Let's conveniently jack up the PCR Magnification cycles to 40+, resulting in a 90–97% false positive rate.
Then, let's start testing all elective surgery, asymptomatic exposures, and hospitalized patients with this fake test to artificially increase the Covid numbers.
In addition we will reimburse hospitals greatly for any diagnosed COVID admissions and ICU visits.
Oxygen doesn't work; go home until you get worse. Oh, and bring your family and friends with you; they'll need testing.
Steroids were advised against early on, which made no sense, because they do decrease inflammation and in ENT have been used widely for viral illness.
Next we find a few weeks later the secret drug to treat COVID: steroids. What?
Hydroxychloroquine HCQ—suddenly not safe, even though it has been used for decades worldwide with a great safety profile, but not anymore. Mention it, and you are a lunatic.
The same went for all other proven therapeutics, such as ivermectin and vitamin D.
Vaccines? “I wouldn't trust anything president Trump made.” That was Kamala Harris back in the fall.
Now if you don't get vaccinated, you don't care about other people, and you wanna watch people die.
Oh, and by the way, we should vaccinate everyone, including those who previously had COVID, pregnant women, and small children.
What about VAERS? That's the open record report system that the CDC has made almost unnavigable. It's slowly crept up and showed up to 12,000 deaths coincident with the vaccine. Then dropped to 6,000, only to come back up to 10,000 and now back to 12,000–Just a little glitch from our trustworthy government.
There are reports that the numbers could be ten times or more as high, and perhaps the CDC is misclassifying deaths to hide them. But let's trust the government; they've been so good thus far.
Now the latest lie: “the delta variant, is surging because of the unvaccinated.”
Ignore the data from other countries that have very high vaccine rates but high spiking cases, and ignore the data from other countries that have low vaccine rates and almost no COVID.
As a matter fact, let's not even look at Sweden, who essentially didn't do lockdowns or masking, has a low vaccination rate, and has almost zero COVID.
I have never lived in the world like this, where open medical dialogue is completely suppressed and there is only one party line.
I thought the left was always talking about how we shouldn't bully people, and we need to have "dialogue." Well...let's start.
The media and the government need to do their job and start opening dialogue to the other side. If we are crazy, it will come out.
If we are right, and the data show that to be the fact, then a large apology is warranted.
The US case and death graphs weren't scary enough, I guess
https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2021/08/05/coronavirus-covid-live-updates-us
So now the WaPO is showing WORLDWIDE Covid case and death numbers, which allows the graph of cases to have that scary parabolic slope. Google won't let me input the graph, even after laundering it through my photos app, but you can see it at the URL above.
Meanwhile at the NY Times, whose graphs also fail to transfer here, one can see that while cases have been climbing since June, deaths have barely budged.
CDC says that 349 children have died in all of 2020 and 2021 "involving Covid".
The CDC doesn't even tell us how many Covid killed. In Germany, with 84 million people (25% the US total), the Bild newspaper reported this week that only 20 children had died from or with Covid.
That means, for the US, that only 0.67% (less than 1%) of children who have died from all causes since the start of the pandemic, died with Covid as one of their diagnoses.
And if the real US numbers were closer to the German numbers, we would be looking at about 0.15% of child deaths having any relationship to Covid. (I say 'real' because a number of jurisdictions have been lowering their case and death numbers lately, so we don't know what the real numbers are.)
So the next time you hear we need to mask/distance/vaccinate "for the children," use these statistics and JUST SAY NO.
More than half of US doctors polled said they felt inappropriately angry, tearful, or anxious thinking about Covid-19. Moral injury from having to toe the party line?
From STAT:
New survey highlights increased burnout among physicians during the pandemic
Nearly two-thirds of doctors who responded to a new survey on physician mental health reported burnout, a 20% increase since 2018. This latest survey from The Physicians Foundation polled more than 2,500 U.S. physicians between the end of May and early June 2021. The vast majority of physicians reported being impacted by Covid-19, with many experiencing a reduction in income. When it comes to the pandemic's impact on their mental health, more than half said they felt inappropriately angry, tearful, or anxious thinking about Covid-19. Nearly half have withdrawn or isolated themselves from others and almost a third reported feeling hopeless. Only 1 in 7 physicians said they have sought medical help for their mental health, while 1 in 5 said they know someone who has considered, attempted, or died by suicide in the wake of the pandemic.

RESIST: Sen. Rand Paul: Mask mandates and lockdowns from petty tyrants? No, not again. Choose freedom
Resist. They can’t arrest us all. They can’t keep all your kids home from school
Rand Paul says he is against vaccine mandates because he believes in a free society
Kentucky Republican explains why he is pro-vaccine but does not support mandates on 'Fox News Primetime'
Resist.
They can’t arrest us all. They can’t keep all your kids home from school. They can’t keep every government building closed – although I’ve got a long list of ones they should.
We don’t have to accept the mandates, lockdowns, and harmful policies of the petty tyrants and feckless bureaucrats. We can simply say no, not again.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi — you will not arrest or stop me or anyone on my staff from doing our jobs. We have all either had COVID, had the vaccine, or been offered the vaccine. We will make our own health choices. We will not show you a passport, we will not wear a mask, we will not be forced into random screening and testing so you can continue your drunk with power rein over the Capitol.
President Biden — we will not accept your agencies’ mandates or your reported moves toward a lockdown. No one should follow the CDC’s anti-science mask mandates. And if you want to shutdown federal agencies again — some of which aren’t even back to work fully — I will stop every bill coming through the Senate with an amendment to cut their
Children are falling behind in school, and are being harmed physically and psychologically by the tactics you have used to keep them from the classroom last year. We won’t allow it againf a school system attempts to keep the children from full-time, in-person school, I will hold up every bill with two amendments. One to defund them, and another to allow parents the choice of where the money goes for their child’s education.
Do I sound fed up to you? That’s because I am.
I’m not a career politician. I’ve practiced medicine for 33 years. I graduated from Duke Medical School, worked in emergency rooms, studied immunology and virology, and ultimately chose to become a surgeon.
We are at a moment of truth and a crossroads. Will we allow these people to use fear and propaganda to do further harm to our society, economy, and children?
I have been telling everyone for a year now that Dr. Anthony Fauci and other public health officials were NOT following science, and I’ve been proven right time and time again.
But I’m not the only one who is fed up. I can’t go anywhere these days — from work, to events, to airports and Ubers, restaurants and stores, without people coming up to me thanking me for standing up for them.
For standing up for actual science. For standing up for freedom. For standing against mandates, lockdowns, and bureaucratic power grabs.
I see members of Congress refusing to comply with Petty Tyrant Pelosi. I think the tide has turned, and more and more people are willing to stand up. I see stories from across the country of parents standing up to teacher unions and school boards.
We are at a moment of truth and a crossroads. Will we allow these people to use fear and propaganda to do further harm to our society, economy, and children?
Or will we stand together and say, absolutely not. Not this time. I choose freedom.

A common cold literature review mentions the RSV vaccine trial, Vit C, Echinacea and zinc
From a 2004 review of the common cold. This paper says 10-15% of colds are due to coronaviruses. Some suggest a higher percentage. It can be useful to read literature that is untainted by current political considerations.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7125703/
The development of an RSV vaccine has been hampered by the experience with formalin-inactivated whole RSV vaccine in the 1960s, as it caused 80% of RSV vaccinees to become hospitalised compared with 5% of controls, as well as two fatalities [80]. Current major research has focused on a prophylaxis using a humanised mouse monoclonal antibody, Palizivumab, which has been shown to reduce the rate of RSV-associated hospitalisation in premature infants [81]. However, its use on a wider population will require further research.
There is currently no licensed Parainfluenza vaccine to date. The formalin-inactivated vaccine generated in the 1960s was not able to prevent PIV infection and was soon abandoned. At present, recombinant bovine PIV3 and human PIV3 attenuated vaccines are being evaluated in animal models as vectors for the delivery of other viral antigens such as RSV-G and RSV-F proteins. This bivalent vaccine combination provides a high level of resistance to challenge with PIV3 and RSV in animal models [82].
The conventional methods of vaccination are via the intramuscular and subcutaneous routes. Mucosal immunisation has recently been explored and represents an attractive manner of delivering vaccines. It is fast, simple and noninvasive, and it can be carried out by unskilled individuals. The use of mucosal vaccination seems logical in that most respiratory viral infections initially start at the mucosal sites. Therefore, inducing local immunity can help arrest the infection at an early phase before systemic complications arise.
Thus far, there has been inconclusive evidence to support the use of vitamin C and extracts of the plant Echinacea in common cold prevention. Daily supplementation with large doses of vitamin C does not seem to prevent common colds; however, there seems to be a modest (8–9%) reduction in the number of symptom days in individuals with established cold symptoms, with larger doses having a greater effect [83]. For Echinacea, currently available data from studies conducted in the adult population show positive findings both in the treatment and prevention of upper respiratory infection. However, variations in the design of the clinical trial and in Echinacea preparations have to be taken into account [84].
Zinc has been shown to possess antiviral properties in vitro, and different preparations of zinc have been proposed for the treatment of the common cold. Zinc lozenges appeared to have positive effects on adults, but negative effects on children in terms of duration and severity of common cold symptoms [85], [86]. Zinc nasal spray appears to reduce the total symptom score but has no effect on the duration of the common cold [87]. Recent research shows that zinc nasal gel can reduce the median time to cold resolution compared to placebo (4.3 days vs. 6.0 days; p=0.02) and decrease the median time to resolution of nasal congestion, nasal drainage, hoarseness and sore throat [88].
The Delta Helter Skelter. When Dire Delta is the excuse for new lockdowns and vaccine mandates, but the truth keeps dribbling out. Today more news from Israel
'Helter-skelter' means 'in chaotic and disorderly haste'.
It seems a good descriptor of how public health mouthpieces are dealing with the facts oozing out of the public health muck regarding the Delta variant.
Considering that their strategy has been to use Delta to impose ever more harsh and unjustifiable Great Reset measures, their brains must be spinning as they try to spin the latest info from Israel, UK and their own slide deck.
Now things look a lot worse for them than they did in that CDC slide deck. Check out these official graphs from Israel: cases rising equally in the vaccinated as the unvaccinated (while the vaccinated are in the majority of the population). But the vaccinated are not being spared severe illness, as claimed by our plucky CDC director. Two thirds of severe cases are occurring in the vaccinated.
How can you spin this into a justification for vaccine mandates? You can't. And unless the authorities can prove there is no ADE, getting a booster could just make things a whole lot worse.
[I think we should stop talking about this as a pandemic response. It is a coup, a Reset of the world as we knew it. The so-called pandemic responses simply serve to terrorize the public and prolong the outbreak, as well as prolong and worsen the illness in those for whom early treatment is withheld. ]

Why would you institute get tough policies and mandates exactly when the data show the vaccines are very leaky?
If your vaccine doesn't necessarily protect you or me very well, you can't achieve herd immunity and there is no societal justification to mandate the shot, or squeeze the unvaccinated.
Supposedly, CDC just figured this out. More to the point, the media just started reporting on it, mostly because of a leaked set of CDC slides.
So, it would appear that the only reason to get tough about the shots right now, would be to get them into arms before the public realizes the benefits are rapidly shrinking.
Pfizer applied for a full license, which would be the necessary condition to legally mandate the shots. But a poorly conceived and argued Office of Legal Counsel "opinion" was issued last week. It argues that mandates could be imposed under EUA.
It is unlikely that the feds would issue such a charged and difficult-to-defend document unless they needed it. They only need it if a license is not coming soon. Which suggests FDA has cold feet. Which is something new, considering how they licensed remdesivir. The data they have must be pretty bad. Maybe they are waiting for more data that will look better?
Just speculating...
Israel: Immunity waning in addition to increased infectivity of the Delta variant/ Haaretz
Israel's leaders sold the country to Pfizer, giving the company the medical records of everyone in Israel. Now Israel will be the first country to test booster doses, generating data so the rest of the world can follow. Is the information coming out of Israel accurate? Who knows?
Israelis have found “evidence that there is waning immunity” in COVID-19 vaccine, Israeli health official Dr. Sharon Alroy-Preis says. “We see a drop in the vaccine effectiveness for those vaccinated early on, and we see it for those elderly people over the age of 60.”
She added that 50 percent of the current infections are vaccinated individuals. "Previously we thought that fully vaccinated individuals are protected, but we now see that vaccine effectiveness is roughly 40 percent." She noted that while effectiveness remains high for severe disease, Israel is seeing diminished protection, particularly for those who have been vaccinated longer...
"We compare people — both over the age of 60 but also between 16 and 59 — who were immunized early on and fully vaccinated by the end of January. We see infection rates among them that is 90 per 100,000, which is double of those who are fully vaccinated by March," she said, adding that "we see a drop in the vaccine effectiveness against disease for those who have been vaccinated early on, and we see it for both elderly people over the age of 60 but also for the younger."
..."We saw that 80 percent of vaccinated individuals who have become confirmed cases themselves had zero contact with confirmed cases, while 10 percent had one contact of confirmed cases," she said. [This is called community spread, and when you cannot identify where the virus was picked up, and you refuse to treat contacts with effective post-exposure drugs, then Track and Trace is simply an expensive, bad joke.
But maybe not a joke for the surveillance agencies...--Nass]
I called the CDC to ask about the shots...
The following "conversation" was passed on by a friend. You don't know whether to laugh or cry. How can this be, and how did we get here?
ME: CDC, should I get poked if I already had Covid?CDC: “Yes, you should be poked regardless of whether you already had COVID-19. That’s because experts do not yet know how long you are protected from getting sick again after recovering from COVID-19.”ME: Oh, okay, we don’t know how long natural immunity lasts. Got it. So, how long does poke-induced immunity last?CDC: “There is still a lot we are learning about COVID-19 pokes and CDC is constantly reviewing evidence and updating guidance. We don’t know how long protection lasts for those who are poked.”ME: Okay … but wait a second. I thought you said the reason I need the poke was because we don’t know how long my natural immunity lasts, but it seems like you’re saying we ALSO don’t know how long poke immunity lasts either. So, how exactly is the poke immunity better than my natural immunity?CDC: …ME: Uh … alright. But, haven’t there been a bunch of studies suggesting that natural immunity could last for years or decades?CDC: Yes.NEWYORKTIMES: “Years, maybe even decades, according to a new study.”ME: Ah. So natural immunity might last longer than poke immunity?CDC: Possibly. You never know.ME: Okay. If I get the poke, does that mean I won’t get sick?BRITAIN: Nope. We are just now entering a seasonal spike and about half of our infections and hospital admissions are poked people.ME: CDC, is this true? Are there a lot of people in the U.S. catching Covid after getting the poke?CDC: We stopped tracking breakthrough cases. We accept voluntary reports of breakthroughs but aren’t out there looking for them.ME: Does that mean that if someone comes in the hospital with Covid, you don’t track them because they’ve been poked? You only track the UN-poked Covid cases?CDC: That’s right.ME: Oh, okay. Hmm. Well, if I can still get sick after I get the poke, how is it helping me?CDC: We never said you wouldn’t get sick. We said it would reduce your chances of serious illness or death.ME: Oh, sorry. Alright, exactly how much does it reduce my chance of serious illness or death.CDC: We don’t know “exactly.”ME: Oh. Then what’s your best estimate for how much risk reduction there is?CDC: We don’t know, okay? Next question.ME: Um, if I’m healthy and don’t want the poke, is there any reason I should get it?CDC: Yes, for the collective.ME: How does the collective benefit from me getting poked?CDC: Because you could spread the virus to someone else who might get sick and die.ME: Can a poked person spread the virus to someone else?CDC: Yes.ME: So if I get poked, I could still spread the virus to someone else?CDC: Yes.ME: But I thought you just said, the REASON I should get poked was to prevent me spreading the virus? How does that make sense if I can still catch Covid and spread it after getting the poke?CDC: Never mind that. The other thing is, if you stay unpoked, there’s a chance the virus could possibly mutate into a strain that escapes the pokes protection, putting all poked people at risk.ME: So the poke stops the virus from mutating?CDC: No.ME: So it can still mutate in poked people?CDC: Yes.ME: This seems confusing. If the poke doesn’t stop mutations, and it doesn’t stop infections, then how does me getting poked help prevent a more deadly strain from evolving to escape the poke?CDC: You aren’t listening, okay? The bottom line is: as long as you are unpoked, you pose a threat to poked people.ME: But what KIND of threat??CDC: The threat that they could get a serious case of Covid and possibly die.ME: My brain hurts. Didn’t you JUST say that the poke doesn’t keep people from catching Covid, but prevents a serious case or dying? Now it seems like you’re saying poked people can still easily die from Covid even after they got the poke just by running into an unpoked person! Which is it??CDC: That’s it, we’re hanging up now.ME: Wait! I just want to make sure I understand all this. So, even if I ALREADY had Covid, I should STILL get poked, because we don’t know how long natural immunity lasts, and we also don’t know how long poke immunity lasts. And I should get the poke to keep a poked person from catching Covid from me, but even if I get the poke, I can give it to the poked person anyways. And, the other poked person can still easily catch a serious case of Covid from me and die. Do I have all that right?
That big lie from last week--that 97% of hospitalized and 99.5% of deaths occur in the unvaccinated--proven a lie by CDC's own slide deck
And here is the URL for the leaked slide deck--it was hard to find.
These are CDC's slides. They don't always tell the truth. Occasionally they do.
And here is an article giving you other interesting numbers from the CDC's Provincetown data, which were released after the leak:
CDC study shows 74% of people infected in Massachusetts Covid outbreak were fully vaccinated

Official UK data (July 23) and Delta has significantly lower mortality than alpha, beta and eta variants
Alpha and Delta are split about 50:50 causing the vast majority of UK cases. Here is the updated report:
Mortality in the over 50 age group (pages 14 and 15) was 4.8% for alpha, 4.3% for beta, 5.3% for eta, and only 1.8% for Delta.
Here's the thing: the USG spin doctors created a lie about Delta so they could keep the panic going. Perhaps Delta looked fearful at one time. But now the Delta story is all bullshit. While Delta may be the first variant to break through vaccine-induced (limited and waning) protection, I can guarantee it will not be the last. Breaking through vaccine protection is a completely different issue than how virulent or deadly a variant or strain is, overall.
Just to confirm this for yourself, go look up The NY Times daily cases and deaths. The US cases are said to be over 80% Delta. You will find that case numbers began shooting up 4 weeks ago.
Deaths have normally followed case upticks with a two week delay. But this time, deaths have barely budged over the last two weeks, failing to follow the trajectory of cases.
It just shows we are living in scamdemic times. But are any of these numbers reliable? For whatever reason, it appears the UK government is significantly less brazen about making up statistics than the Walensky's and Fauci's are on this side of the pond.
The unvaccinated among us can be pleased we did not waiver from our convictions. Looks like for Delta, vaccinees got all the risk, and none of the benefit. And now they want to sell you a booster...
Mandates, wow. Look what can be accomplished when the president lacks a brain/ NYT
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/07/29/us/politics/biden-vaccine-mandates.html
"If you want to do business with the federal government, get your workers vaccinated,” the president said bluntly...
Numerous businesses — including Netflix, Saks Fifth Avenue, The Washington Post, Ascension Health, Lyft, Google and Morgan Stanley — all announced get-tough policies that require their workers to get shots as a condition of employment..."
WaPo's big CDC scoop on Delta variant in the vaccinated is unintelligible. Was it meant to be?
Here is the WaPo article, which the paper exclaims is "free" for all, not kept behind a paywall like the rest of the Post. So they want everybody to read it. Perhaps a federal agency or vaccine company paid for the privilege?
In a nutshell: WaPo reports that CDC admits that vaccination does not protect you against the Delta variant. Unsaid is whether it protects you against the other variants.
Has protection worn off, or was it missing for Delta to begin with? That simple question is never addressed. Might the vaccine make you more susceptible? This is a rare possibility, if it induced blocking antibodies.
Or is antibody dependent enhancement occurring? I don't think we know yet.
Ingrained in this message is is the hint that we will immediately need boosters--but they may not actually be boosters, if there is no immunity to boost. We might instead need a newly designed vaccine. Two more doses? But not to worry, that was the whole idea of the mRNA vaccines: new versions can be put together in a hurry. And Pfizer has been working on it.
Don't forget, our government in its infinite wisdom contracted for a couple of billion doses. What did they know that we didn't?
No doubt this story will stoke the market for monoclonal antibodies, a several thousand dollar treatment that only works in the early stage of illness, before you actually know whether you need it.
This article is allegedly based on a leaked slide show from CDC. And CDC is said to have its knickers in a twist over its vaccine "messaging." How will CDC deal with the fact that government officials told a Big Lie last week about 99.5% of hospitalized cases being unvaccinated, when the truth might stoke vaccine hesitancy? What message can they now use, having painted themselves into a corner?
But why did they paint themselves into a corner? Why did Fauci et al. make such an outrageous claim (the 99.5% one), when data from Israel, the UK, Singapore and elsewhere belied the lie?
Much of the rest of the article is a collection of quotes from people to whom the WaPo showed the slides. Since these experts are vaccine boosters, what would you expect them to say? Their remarks are vapid and unenlightening.
Of course this is more fear-mongering (CDC claiming that delta is the most virulent strain of all) designed to make us happily grab our retired masks and stop hanging with our vaccinated friends.
And now the government is going to force a vaccine that doesn't work on millions of employees.
The one thing that is clear in this whole story is they want the ability to inject us with something, and to do it over and over. We don't know why. And they're not telling.
The NYT says half a million Americans are getting the shot every day. Join the crowd! The Europeans are besting us in the number vaccinated. Do I believe the NYT?
The NYT is confused tonight. It has one article on the Delta variant-- CDC slides story, while it has another article claiming:
Although those steps fall short of a mandate, Mr. Biden also ordered the Defense Department to move rapidly toward one for all members of the military, a step that would affect almost 1.5 million troops, many of whom have resisted taking a shot that is highly effective against a disease that has claimed the lives of more than 600,000 Americans.
And Biden was late to get the message about the CDC slides, saying today:
“This is a pandemic of the unvaccinated,” Mr. Biden said, calling it an “American tragedy” and talking directly to the 90 million Americans who are eligible for a vaccine but have not gotten one. “People are dying and will die who don’t have to die. If you’re out there unvaccinated, you don’t have to die. Read the news.”
I guess those CDC slides really were leaked unexpectedly. I had been wondering if the federal employee vaccine mandate might bring a few federal whistleblowers out of the woodwork. Let's hope they keep the information coming.

WaPo 7/28 publishes multiple truth grenades as well as fake news about breakthrough cases
to ask, ‘Where’s the data?’
Excerpts:
But the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention did not publish the new research. In the text of the updated masking guidance, the agency merely cited “CDC COVID-19 Response Team, unpublished data, 2021.”
Some outside scientists have their own message: Show us the data...
" The Singapore Ministry of Health recently found that three-fourths of coronavirus cases in the past four weeks were in people who were fully or partially vaccinated, most with no or mild symptoms...
These post-vaccination infections have often been described by Walensky and other medical experts as rare. How rare is unclear. News reports of people getting sick after vaccination have been common in recent weeks. But scientific data is limited...
And here is the kicker: 3 months ago CDC acted to drastically reduce its breakthrough case numbers, by restricting reports to only people who died or were hospitalized, and requiring huge viral loads when tested, defined as having a positive PCR with cycle threshold no greater than 28... while normally Covid cases are considered positive with approximately 1000 times less virus --Nass
The CDC on May 1 said it would stop tracking mild and moderate breakthrough cases, and focus only on hospitalizations and deaths. As of July 19, the CDC had documented 5,914 such breakthroughs, including 1,141 deaths.
Even though the vaccines remain effective against all variants of the coronavirus, they are not designed to create “sterilizing” immunity. That’s why breakthrough infections happen."

Yet on July 21, NBC Boston noted that in Massachusetts alone, with less than 2% of the US population, over 5100 breakthrough cases had been documented.
As of July 17, a total of 5,166 breakthrough cases had been reported to the state DPH. Of those, 272 people were hospitalized and survived. Of the 80 people who died, 23 died without being hospitalized; 57 died following a hospital stay.
Health officials insist vaccine confidence should not be shaken, and say these numbers should be put into perspective. The overwhelming majority of the reported breakthrough cases -- more than 93% -- did not result in either hospitalization or death.
In other words, vaccinated breakthrough cases were just as likely to be hospitalized or die, or at even greater risk of these bad outcomes, as unvaccinated cases--Nass
