The only nation that actually cracked down on the 2008 financial meltdown and jailed the criminal, rent-seeking, parasite bankers responsible, is the First country to lift all of the deliberately damaging, deliberately ineffective, and deliberately draconian COVID-19 restrictions?

There’s something special about this land and its people - I would love to drop in for a visit. Bravo Icelanders!!

Encore everyone else.

Still inexcusable torture. The pivot from this point onward needs to be massive pressure on corrupt political tyrants and corrupt pharma companies.

We cannot be comfortable with a boot off our neck.

The time for just wanting to be left alone is over.

We must stay on offense.

Vikings leading the charge! Will be fascinating to see how tourist revenue rebounds in countries that lift restrictions (Iceland, Mexico, UK) compared to those who are doubling down on fascism (Canada, Australia, NZ).

They had 30 deaths in 2020. The jab reduced that number to 30 deaths in 2021. EFFECTIVE!

"How the mighty (mRNA shots) have fallen. ... As a wise man once said, virus gonna virus."

Ah, but having tasted the power their subjects will obviously allow, tyrants are still gonna tyrant. The control will continue to advance by other means. Stay vigilant. It's far from over and indeed may just be starting. We're just turning a page to a new chapter in a long march.

Wow, as a Canadian I think I may have to move there. Alas I don't think Chairman Trudeau allows that now. I am still working out all the details of martial law, but it seems like mobility is another right that we are denied. It seems to have disappeared along with our other rights to life, liberty and security of the person. While provincial governments are easing restrictions, I am having a hard time celebrating when Chairman Trudeau imposes martial law. I will emphasize again that these assholes have lied to us for two years and it may look like they are playing nice with us but don't fall for it. Its a trap. Stay alert, strong and free and God help us!

@Alex, for the record Mexico was the first one, I went in 2 weeks ago and absolutely no questions asked including tests, contact tracing etcetera , was not even wearing a mask at customs. People are done with the Lies!!!! Thanks as always for putting the truth out there whether it hurts or not.

Alex, Steve Kirsch ran a Substack article about the very study you wrote about, "proving" that Ivermectin was useless for covid. Many medical professionals, including Dr. Pierre Kory, read the study results, and came to the opposite conclusion.

As did many of your Substack subscribers, as shown in their comments.

I have an idea! How about you debate Dr. Kory?!

I like the last sentence of the last mail.

"Mostly caused by the unvaxxed" + "Mostly understood that the vax does not prevent transmission" = PEOPLE ARE STUPID TO THE INFINITE AND BEYOND BEYOND BEYOOOOOOND.

Same in my country.

Ok so has that time passed? When was that written? I would like to see the report that all mandates and restrictions HAVE ended, and not are about to end. Please forgive my cynicism. But living in Ontario I hear nothing but lies and false promises intended to anesthetize the public while preparing them for more tyranny. This for a solid 2 years.

Please let me know if and when they actually do it. Or have they already?

And an unwise man recently misread a JAMA article on ivermectin, was called out in it by his readers, called them “fanatics” and hasn’t issued a peep since.

Arrogant bastard gonna arrogant bastard.

So as a physician - I just dont get how the vaccine "protects" you against severe disease. If it can't stop you from getting it, or spreading it - or it can't document lower viral counts - how does it achieve this miraculous finding.

I personnel dont believe they work at all. Almost everyone I know who has died from Covid was vaccinated. I think any protective effect is likely from patients with prior natural immunity and severe bias from very different populations.

Norway already did this - no vax no test no mask - so Iceland is second 😉

Same in Ireland too. Masks are gone too, from next Monday. Unless you want to keep yours, that is.

well this is amazing and just so everyone knows canada has now levelled up the fascism as under the emergencies act we are tracked for everything we say (yes i am sure this was done before) but now they can actually punish us. as of today. usually i would post this sort of info on my instagram stories but starting today i cannot. as a mother for 4 children how do i fight for my childrens future and if we effectively cannot speak. protesting is illegal now. they are even recording phone conversations. my 11 year old daughter said to me "mom, if we cant protest and we cant even share the info, how will it ever end?" and to that I had no answer.

As the State of the Union is looming, it’s likely restrictions will continue to fall here too. Biden will take credit for all we’ve done re: vaccines, COVID policies, etc. I wonder if CDC will recommend against masking . . . Gosh, it’s amazing how Dem governors and the entire western world (sans Canada) has this amazing coordinated messaging.

Good for Iceland. But there it is again, “the vaccine prevents serious illness”. My experience on the street is, that statement is bunk. Studies seem to sometimes show a slight advantage. When you factor in the small percentage of devastating vaccine injuries, often among the young, this last canard is disturbing. After promising SOOO much the Vaccine Industrial Complex is down to, “well at least it prevents serious illness”- B.S.. this is criminal and I’m sick of hearing it.

Hooray! Someone needs to tell Governor Inslee of WA. He still has mask mandates in effect until March 21st. I’m sure he choose this date because it is after March 17th (St Patrick’s day) when hundreds gather and celebrate in pubs. He is a total clown. He usually follows his blue brothers in Oregon and California but this time has stepped out of the box and independently made his decision and science be damned!

Meanwhile, back in the USSR, I mean USA, Biden has declared the national emergency declared on March 13, 2020, and beginning March 1, 2020, must continue in effect beyond March 1, 2022.

And the American military leading the way in failing to budge an inch from their mandates and thus making no effort to retain quality soldiers. But I hear they are pretty good with their pronouns and CRT study groups!

I can't help but think that tourism is the driving force behind lifting restrictions. Even the hyper-woke EU is considering the removal of mandates & restrictions. Note the DATE. Could it be that travelers want to travel again? Tourist destinations want an infusion of tourist money?

BUT no one wants to say that because it would come across as mercenary--putting money ahead of so-called public health/public safety.

Now that the general public figures covid is manageable/treatable, masks are silly, and who-the-hell-knows about vaccines, I think the fear is lifting.

But hey! That's just me. I tend to follow the money.

PS: The reason why Iceland is dropping all restrictions is because tourism is in the toilet. Bad enough that not many people want to visit in the first place.

That is good news, but I heard Switzerland did the same thing a few a days ago. Question is, when will this happen in the USA? My prediction - while Fauci is still around, a long time. Separately, the Pentagon just approved the National Guard mobiliz to DC to squash the Freedom Truckers arrival. Predictable.

Switzerland has lifted all restrictions. Including to outside travelers. They said 90% of the country has immunity through infection or vax.

Wonderful news and it’s thrilling to think of foreign travel again. However I have a gnawing suspicion about when the other shoe is going to drop. The sudden cascade of 180° reversals within a space of two months is just not normal for most governments, particularly when it comes to liberating types of actions. I hope I’m wrong.

I think the cabal’s play in the current removal of mandates is to set up their future strategy. For the next “pandemic” they will gladly remove all mandates once “vaccine” uptake is deemed high enough. Coercion is a hell of a drug.

As soon as I saw this, I went to check out the Iceland races (marathon, half-marathon, and 10k) and plan to start training again. I've been so demoralized by the nonsensical rules for masking, distancing, and at least here in NYC, jab requirements for races, that I had almost given up. I'm thinking of doing the Volcano Half (or maybe even full?) in September. I doubt I can help with spreading the infection as I think I may have had "omicron" in December (or just a plain old cold), but I'll be bringing my money that might otherwise have gone into the coffers of races here in NY.

I see an article on Breitbart that Ireland is eliminating "almost all" restrictions, starting Monday. UK has already apparently done so. Ireland will still be hurt by their and other countries enter and exit restrictions. I have close relatives in Ireland. The elderly have been locked down for 2 years. Imagine being locked down in remote, rural areas in the west of Ireland in places where population density is extremely low. You cannot underestimate the lemming like conformity.

Lacking data from the results of unvaxxed who received early treatment there is no informed consent. The very idea that risks of adverse events are rare is simply a lie and have no real world meaning when the control group is infected & treatment is withheld.

This is all a ruse. All the tyrannical rulers are easing restrictions based on the false premise that for the most part there draconian mandates worked. Now you’re allowed to go back to normal…for now. When the next “pandemic” or any other “emergency” comes about they will drop the hammer again, maybe worse than this time…

They still cannot quite bring themselves to admit that this would have been over long ago, with no vaccines and natural immunity. Still a bunch of pompous asses in my book. How much money did the US government and drug companies pay these people that they have lost all sight of reality?

As probably the first country, Faroe Islands announced a fixed plan for a total abandonment of all Covid19 restrictions on the 21st January. At the end of this month, the last few limitation will be lifted.

During the whole period with Covid19 there has never been any real restrictions in the Faroe Islands and certainly not any mandates. Instead the government has given guidelines and recommendations.

The purpose with the guidelines that have been valid the last month or so has not been to avoid that people get Covid19, but rather to avoid that too many get sick at the same time. Now 60% of the population have had Covid19. Some have died with Covid19, but very few have dies because of Covid19.

Was just talking to my wife about where we can go on vacation this year. Iceland might be it now. Refused to go somewhere that required a negative test. The test itself isn’t bothersome but I don’t want the cloud about getting a (maybe false) positive and have all our plans ruined.
