After being in denial for weeks,the administration at the hospital where I work finally sent a weekly staff email reporting the percentage of hospitalized patients with Covid who were fully vaccinated ( >30%). The ‘epidemic of the unvaccinated’ narrative is breaking down…

Expand full comment

the stats are cooked in two main ways: a) people with one shot OR two shots but less than 14 days after shot 2 are 'unvaccinated', which is a lie. b) the cdc has entirely different testing guidelines for vaxxed and unvaxxed. Vaccinated people are only tested if they seem to be symptomatic and having actual covid issues, whereas unvaccinated people are (likely) tested no matter what, regardless of any symptoms. This will automatically find more 'cases' in the unvaxxed. Thus, US data on vax efficacy is garbage.

Expand full comment

Yeah it looks like this "unvaccinated' b.s. is just to continually push the nonstop propaganda that the unvaxxeded are the ones getting sick and essentially killing everyone the world over.

Expand full comment

What is commonly overlooked (or misunderstood) is vaccines aren't a cure, simply an artificial activation of the immune system. This is a pandemic of people with weakened I'm unemployed systems, increasingly common in modern hedonistic cultures. The vax gives everyone a boost, but much weaker response in people with weakened immune health. Those co morbidities affect vax response just as much as real virus.

A competent medical bureaucracy and honest government would be advising everyone that people with healthy immune systems are mostly unaffected by this virus, and don't really need vaccination except as an insurance policy if they're unaware of their immune strength. But the medical industrial complex is interested in profitable pills and procedures. It's a sickness industry, not health. They prefer you to get sick. It's their business model.

Well then. Let’s stop with the PCR tests and move to the serum immunity tests.

I found out today that two doctor friends of ours attended a wedding back east in the summer. The criteria for attending? (These are mostly doctors mind you), was a vax pass OR proof of immunity!

Agreed . But it seems what constitutes someone being unvaccinated. Some "unvaccinated" stats include vaccinated people but over 14 days ago 🙄🤣

Expand full comment

And now that you are unvaccinated after X months it will become nearly impossible to distinguish vaccine injury from Covid from ADE from other viruses. Juking the stats, starting with the definitions, is a time-tested way to avoid accountability and raise ambiguity and consequent hysteria and strife among even the brightest people.

That’s why I keep to my four C19 truths - they don’t require ‘data’ or ‘science’ to be valid - so I don’t flounder when it comes to the ‘doctoring’ of statistics (just realised how apposite ‘doctoring’ is in the current sentence - lol)

SARS vax was a fail with way less adverse effects than this one. By the same standards, the mrna vaxes would have been called failures months ago. We need to decide whether it's more important to have zero risk vaccines, harming a tiny fraction of recipients, or to save millions who actually died from the vax being withheld for a year. It appears that decision has been made, at least partly. I'm guessing future pandemics will see vaccines rolled out even quicker.

We'll never have zero risk, in anything. But we know how to determine very low risk quickly.

Expand full comment

It isn't an all or nothing answer. The risk is possibly justified for older people and those with health issues but pretty obviously not for young healthy adults and children. I'm also not sure that you would have "saved millions who actually died from the vax being withheld for a year". I think it's unknown how many people would have been saved and for how long.

Expand full comment

A serious medical practitioner must wonder:

How many lives and livelihoods would have been saved had the medical “higher ups” been honest about using life-saving early treatment protocols like the ones being posted from the FLCCCdotnet?

Think of the hundreds of thousands who died perhaps needlessly and painfully because the “leadership” at the top was negligent, corrupt and lying?

And most definitely they were not (and still are not) “following the science”.

Expand full comment

Yes, but its also unknown how many were saved by not trying to climb Everest. But probably a lot. The vax clearly reduced serious illness. Sooner would have been better.

Expand full comment

If the FDA and CDC had been “following the science” then the jabs would have been stopped months ago due to deaths from the jabs and the hundreds of thousands world-wide who have been injured.

And ZERO liability from Big Pharma.

Nice scam if you will fall for it.

People ask me why I won’t submit to the jab.

There are scores of serious reasons not to. The biggest one is the fact that NO ONE is being held liable for deaths or injuries.

Expand full comment

People should be able to take whatever vaccines they want to. Just don't make them. If it's such a lifesaver, self-interest ought to be enough.

Expand full comment

We have to wonder why they seem so desperate. We could be generous and accept that they only want to stop the virus, and they believe the vax of the only way. They probably know better, if not initially, certainly by now. Next best guess is they're embarrassed that nothing is working so they look for scapegoats -- the unvaxed. Possibly it's good old corruption, shilling for the lobbyists who made them the best offers. Banning effective meds clearly says something nefarious is afoot. But the worst motive is they hope for political advantage. They won white house and senate purely on the virus panic, and they think they can do it again. I smell sedition.

How can they both claim vaccines give herd immunity and is better than natural immunity (which is lifetime), and also that they don't work after 2 weeks? I guess just put it on the list with all the other DoubleThink they are selling.

Expand full comment

They don't claim this. The NY Times reported some weeks back that herd immunity is "off the table" according to the CDC. Yet still the myth persists that vaccines will get us there. Pfizer has said openly that the vaccines were never intended and cannot provide herd immunity.

The NYT also supported Stalin with glowing news of his success while suppressing the Holodomor. It is paper of Marxist record. This is and never has been about the virus.

Expand full comment

They only said this because anyone with one eye can see these vaxs do NOT contribute to herd immunity. I'm old enough to remember Fauxi saying we needed 60-70% to get to herd immunity... "Dr. Anthony Fauci has long cited 60% to 70% as the level of COVID infection/vaccination the country would need to achieve herd immunity — for the disease to fade and life to return to normal, writes the New York Times' Donald G. McNeil Jr."

Herd immunity has not been defined and accepted according to my research, which means any politically inclined actor can make it up as we go along.

This is a great read that lays bare lies told by the WHO and Fauxi. https://www.aier.org/article/who-deletes-naturally-acquired-immunity-from-its-website/

This is the CDC definition, which you will notice shows no measurable, verifiable numbers. They have, apparently, accepted the study linked in the article, which was IMO a start, but not definitive. If you can't measure it, it is always open to games. You will also notice that, while they include prior infection, they go against their own definition and down play natural immunity. Bunch of skunks.

"Community immunity: A situation in which a sufficient proportion of a population is immune to an infectious disease (through vaccination and/or prior illness) to make its spread from person to person unlikely. Even individuals not vaccinated (such as newborns and those with chronic illnesses) are offered some protection because the disease has little opportunity to spread within the community. Also known as herd immunity."

Herd immunity only applies to a specific pathogen. We're dealing now with "variants" which are mutations of the original virus ("victoria") which is pretty much gone. Most areas have herd immunity against the original version. Mutations naturally occur in all viruses, quicker in those with broad proliferation. It's a probabilistic function of replication. Widespread adoption of vaccines reduces survivability of the original virus, but not the mutations. They should probably call the current versions covid-21 -- they're different from -19.

Now they are trying to propagandize us with the TRUE Delta variant. The other was just a “test run” kinda Delta variant?!:

Yeah, this thing mutates fairly quick. They're going to run out of letters. Keep in mind the current vaccinescwere designed for the original version. Shouldn't be surprised it doesn't work as well on the mutants. They try to simplify it to a specific version because they think we're stupid. Seems to be working.

I refer you to my comment above. Partial/Fully Vaxxed Delta infections have surpassed Unvaxxed Delta infections. The ratio of Unvaxxed to Fully Vaxxed Delta infections has dropped from 6.7 as of June 21 to 1.9 as of August 29. Deaths have been upside down for weeks. The Fully Vaxxed are less likely to be infected (as of today), less likely to seek care, less likely to be hospitalized, and more likely to die.

Really? You believe their stats on deaths? Natural herd immunity has always been better, when dealing with “corona” viruses. Besides, thousands & thousands of people have beat the infection with prophylaxis & treatment protocols…without the vax.

The narrative they continue to push is “ at least they didn’t die, they would have surely died without the vaccine.”

You can’t even have a conversation anymore with this cult.

I had a staff meeting the other day and we were discussing the rate of young people in the company not being vaccinated.

The HR flunkie was ranting about these young female workers worried about infertility, when they need to be worried about being on a ventilator!

I honestly believe that many people are just angry because they were bamboozled into receiving this vaccine and now want us all to suffer. This large amount of people cannot possibly think that everyone with Covid-19 is ending up on ventilators.

Something more is at play here, could it be Stockholm Syndrome?

** people are just angry because they were bamboozled into receiving this vaccine and now want us all to suffer**

That's exactly what it is. It's the "crabs in a bucket" cliche. They can't undo their decision, so they want you to do the same thing and be remorseful, too, even if they can't express their own remorse in public.

The odds of a healthy young woman being on a ventilator from covid is infinitesimal, that's the irrational fear shining through. The comparative risks are not equal.

I have a friend with three healthy teenage girls, ages 12 to 17. All three got the shot. All three literally didn't need it at all. I could never do that to my own kids.

I agree about a young woman getting sick being infinitesimal. What's bizarre is that I see young women in their 20's remasking again at the gym, at the grocery store etc. Not all, but some. I cannot fathom was is going on in their minds. After 20 months are that just that uninformed and that risk averse?

The irony of that sentiment - which I have seen online as well - is that if these vaccine maniacs are so convinced that the vaccine is life saving and that everyone will eventually get Covid then shouldn't they be content to sit back and let Covid kill all the unvaccinated naturally? Why do they have to murder the unvaccinated when, by their belief, Covid will kill all the unvaccinated anyway while the vaccinated will be safe and alive? It just goes to show you that they don't really believe that the vaccine works.

It has been clear by now that the whole covid panic was manufactured by the media for partisan election year reasons. The US started the panic and it spread to other countries and became self-sustaining.

Note that I'm not saying covid isn't real, just that the panic was manufactured and that led to an overreaction by government and individuals who are led around by the media.

The panic was so extreme and so self-sustaining that only an exogenous element could reduce it, hence the rush to get the vaccines out. Government needed those vaccines to quell the panic. And they appeared to work at first.

But now they don't evidently don't work as well and the panic is starting to roar back as the religious converts lose their faith.

I was hospitalized about a month ago with double viral pneumonia, very similar to Patrick Reed's experience, except that I was only tested when I went in (positive) and they never tested me on the way out six days later, instead just saying, "symptoms started two weeks ago, you're probably negative".

It started out as a very minor fever and I should have gone to the doctor once the coughing started, but I didn't and I took a turn for the worse. I saw getting sick as an act of God and getting worse as combination of bad luck and my own ineptitude for not handling it better. I never once regretted not getting the shot.

Nonetheless, the vitriol I received from family members after I got home, one in particular, was off the charts. I was called "arrogant" and "ignorant" and "reckless" and "selfish" for not being vaccinated.

"This hospitalization was totally preventable," was a theme they kept coming to.

I'm tempted to share Patrick Ward's story with them - he was vaccinated after all - and ask if his hospitalization was "preventable" too, but I'm also resolved to take the high road and show grace to those who have been brainwashed by the perma-panic and not let is escalate.

But it sure is tempting.

Yes, exactly. I am overweight. Not obese, but I could stand to lose a few pounds.

I suspect that had it been a heart attack or a stroke - both "preventable" by losing weight - there would not have been the same response.

This particular relative has also been VERY compliant since the nonsense started 18 months ago: religious masking, skipping family holidays, keeping his kids home even after school reopened. He had to be shamed into attending his own grandmother's outdoor funeral last fall and even then he stood at the very back and wore a mask the whole time and drove home as soon as the service was over.

I think a lot of his screed was directed towards what he sees as "recklessness" from me for not playing along with his overcautiousness.

This is of ultimate importance.

How did they know it was viral vs. bacterial pneumonia? AFAIK, both lungs is likely to be viral and one lung bacterial, but how firm is this distinction? I wonder how many casualties are caused by the undertreatment of bacterial infections for fear of breeding antibiotic resistance.

Expand full comment

My understanding is that they can tell from the chest x-rays. Viral pneumonia is usually inflammation and structural damage in multiple spots in both lungs. Bacterial pneumonia is usually just a single spot of inflammation in one lung.

Expand full comment

They're not mutually exclusive. Bacterial infection often results from the mucous and inflammation produced by viral infection. Also common in masks worn more than a few hours. Bacteria and viruses are everywhere, just looking for a welcoming home. Healthy immune systems handle both. Those with weakened immune function are susceptible to both.

They have been a total Fraud spewing nonsense Misinformation and from our Government leaders Like Fauci and Collins Disinformation. Alex Berenson, Comes from a good Family a good bringing up by a Loving family. He doesn't deserve to be treated like a Criminal. People Need to Man up and Apologize to him and respect him as well. He Alex Berenson, is not only right about Drugs he is right on Covid-19 Face masks and social distancing and the Locked 🔒 downs. I put all my decades of Knowledge on the line and I support Alex Berenson, and I will never stop supporting him he is a Great Man.

People what we are seeing is a form of chemo brain. I see it with my friends. It took me awhile to realize they were not having just 1 bad day. They were in a fog all day long. It does not appear my very young friends have chemo brain. My older friends are bad. I am not sure they recognize me each day. So if they are walking past me they don’t seem to see me. When later I mention their walk, they seem confused they walked at all. They are forgetting events all together. They also seem more reclusive. They seem to be picking fights with others. Combative. Seriously, I am not joking here. Ran this past a friend not vaccinated and she admitted she is seeing it with her family. Anybody?

my mother is in a nursing home(in new york no less and she lived thru the cuomo debacle). she can't stay away for more than a few minutes at a time. she got covid after her first jab back in january. slept constantly then as well. she has had a couple of 'mild' strokes in the months since the jab and is so confused that she doesn't know where she lives and cannot understand phone conversation. could it be dementia from old age? yes. could it be blood clots killing here gray matter due to the jab? that is my bet...

My mom also had a series of "mild strokes" post vaxx.

my wife's uncle has had a heart attack and 3 strokes since he got his jab(the third one yesterday). non-smoker, teetotaler, in pretty good shape for a 73 year old. seems suspicious to me. my wife works for the state of massachusetts and our governor has made the jab mandatory for all state employees. we are concerned that she could have clotting issues as well if it runs in families. we were hoping to get her a religious exemption but after her uncles strokes, i am wondering if a medical exemption may be possible.

BBC - BREAKING NEWS - VERY GOOD NEWS (Note: all text below is directly quoted from BBC)

The UK's vaccine advisory body (Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation) has refused to give the green light to vaccinating healthy children aged 12-15 years old...based on concern over an extremely rare side effect of the Pfizer vaccine which causes heart inflammation.

Children are at such low risk from the virus, the JCVI decided that vaccination would offer only "marginal gain" and, therefore, there was "insufficient" evidence to offer mass vaccination to this age group. Prof Wei Shen Lim, chairman of Covid immunisation for the JCVI said it was "taking a precautionary approach".

"The margin of benefit is considered too small to support universal Covid-19 vaccination for this age group at this time.

"The committee will continue to review safety data as they emerge," he added.

The JCVI's advice is that at-risk children aged 12 to 15 should be offered a vaccine.

They include children with the following conditions:

blood cancers

sickle cell disease

type 1 diabetes

congenital heart disease

Public Health England latest technical report dropped today...

SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern and variants under investigation in England/Technical briefing 22/September 3, 2021

Public Health England reports that Delta is the dominant variant in the UK. This variant accounted for 99% of sequenced and 98% genotyped cases from July 25 through July 31, 2021 in England (PHE technical briefing 20/August 8 ). PHE has not updated this data since.

PHE last reported the Delta variant Case Fatality Rate (CFR) of ~0.2% - 0.3% in early July (PHE technical briefing 18/July 9). PHE has not updated the CFR since.

PCR cycle threshold (Ct) values from routinely undertaken tests in England show that Ct values (and by inference viral load) are similar between individuals who are unvaccinated and vaccinated.

Delta in England as of 8/29/2021...

Unvaxxed: 219,716 cases/536 deaths/0.2440%

Unvaxxed <50: 212,989 cases/99 deaths/0.0465%

Unvaxxed 50+: 6,724 cases/437 deaths/6.499%

Fully Vaxxed: 113,823 cases/1,091 deaths/0.9585%

Fully Vaxxed <50: 62,403 cases/37 deaths/0.0593%

Fully Vaxxed 50+: 51,420 cases/1,054 deaths/2.450%

50,119 Unlinked Infections

108,870 Partially Vaxxed Infections

113,823 Fully Vaxxed Infections

219,716 Unvaxxed Infections

Partially/Fully Vaxxed infections have surpassed Unvaxxed infections.

1.9 times more infections in Unvaxxed versus Fully Vaxxed.

(2.5 times more infections in Unvaxxed versus Fully Vaxxed as of August 15)

(3.2 times more infections in Unvaxxed versus Fully Vaxxed as of August 8)

~60.7% of deaths were in fully vaxxed.

~64.1% of deaths were in fully vaxxed 50+.

~68.6% of deaths were in fully/partially vaxxed.

555 more deaths of fully vaxxed than unvaxxed.

617 more deaths of fully vaxxed than unvaxxed in 50+ cohort.

697 more deaths of fully/partially vaxxed than unvaxxed.

745 more deaths of fully/partially vaxxed than unvaxxed in 50+ cohort.

We don’t have the prior health status of those who died in any of the cohorts.

We don’t know the breakdown of “vaccines” taken by the vaxxed.

In NJ, Governor Murphy is requiring the "vaccine" for all teachers. Teachers that don't get the experimental gene therapy will have to submit to weekly Covid testing to keep their jobs. "vaccinated" teachers will not have to be tested weekly. Given that there is almost zero difference in transmission between vaccinated and unvaccinated, having separate rules for the different groups is insane. If the fear is unvaccinated children will be infected, they can be infected just as easily by a vaccinated teacher, who can in turn be infected just as easily as a non-vaccinated teacher.

It blows my mind that no journalists are even asking this question and pointing out the contradiction. The media in NJ simply parrots out whatever the administration decides to make up for the day. It is beyond infuriating.

It's not just New Jersey.

In early August on CNN, the CDC Director admitted the fully vaxxed can be infected and transmit the Delta variant and have similar viral loads to the unvaxxed. She claimed that the fully vaxxed were protected from serious disease but the PHE data undermines that claim if the objective is to not die.

This video has been hard to find, so...

The fully vaxxed Delta infections are catching up with the unvaxxed Delta infections...and more fully vaxxed have died. The CFR for the <50 unvaxxed cohort is lower than the CFR for the <50 fully vaxxed. The CFR for the 50+ unvaxxed is very high, but this group likely includes people who are too ill to take a vaxxine and have a higher risk from infection.

I'm not a data person...and the data is incomplete and imperfect...but even I can see something isn't right.

IMO, better to submit to the weekly Covid tests than take the jab. They'll figure it out soon enough.

Interesting signal for the under 50 vaccinated. But, if all or most of those 37 were immunocompromised it would not be as relevant - it would also be important to know whether they were from early or late "breakthrough" infections relative to vaccination date.

Expand full comment

We need more data on age stratification, time from 2nd vaxx, and co-morbidities to have a better understanding.

Nevertheless, the data do not support the narrative claims of a pandemic of the unvaxxed or vaxx protection from severe disease. The ratio of Delta infections in the unvaxxed to fully vaxxed has dropped from 6.7 as of June 21 to 1.9 as of August 29. Delta infections in the partially/fully vaxxed now outnumber those in the unvaxxed, and the deaths have been upside down for weeks.

The fully vaxxed are less likely to be infected (but the gap is closing), less likely to seek care, less likely to be hospitalized, but more likely to die. The goal is to not die.

I've always been suspicious of the low number of infections in the 50+ unvaxxed cohort. It's counterintuitive that the most vulnerable cohort would have the smallest number of infections even if the majority of the 50+ population is vaxxed. The high CFR for this cohort is concerning, although it dropped slightly since the last report.

And we cannot assume people in this cohort are anti-vaxxer ne'er-do-wells who refuse the jabs. This group also includes people who are too unwell to take the vaxxines and are likely at greater risk of serious disease with infection.

As more and more people get damaged, maimed for life, and killed from the vaccines, we will see the psychosis of the already-jabbed increase. As they realize what they've done to themselves in allowing themselves to be used as lab rats, and that it's irreversible, they will become more and more hostile toward those of us who refused.

I totally agree with this. It feels like a real-life dystopian novel where in 10-20 years there will be one group of people with cancer and infertility and other permanent side effects and another smaller class of people who never took the shot and who don't have those conditions.

And because the "vaccinated" class is larger (at least 70% got at least one shot), the government will be catering to them at the expense of the unvaccinated... or maybe it causes a breakup of the country? Or a conflict between the two groups?

Either way it's scary, because such a large group of people let themselves be panicked into a permanent decision to take an under-tested experimental medical treatment when, for most of them, the risk of the disease was much less than the potential risk from the drug itself.

Yes, I think you are right. The dissonance can only get worse from here. The only way to avoid it is for them to realize they were wrong. There has to be a path to redemption for the pro-Vax cult.

Expand full comment

Taking a medicine, or avoidng it, without understanding the risks is irrational. A risk evaluation shows the vax is very low risk, and the virus is very low risk for most. Many people have higher risk for handling infections, so taking the vax is rational. Taking a risk you don't need is irrational, unless there are other benefits like the thrill of victory. Mountain climbers. Free divers. Driving to a bar.

Rationality is a complex business. Accusing others of being irrational for taking risks you don't understand is ... irrational.

I like a lot of your posts, but I'm not going to address your repeated assertion that your risk assessment demonstrates the Covid vaccines are low risk until you actually articulate it.

Expand full comment

At a simple level, most vax recipients are unharmed by the vax, and most people are unharmed by the virus. Both are exceptionally low risk. Taking a low risk vax to avoid a low risk infection needs additional considerations to make an informed choice. For most, the deciding factor is convenience. They avoid a lot of hassles by complying, like wearing brand name clothes helps pick up women.

Some people are higher risk, both from infection or vax. If they know the vulnerabilities, that helps inform their decision. Many don't know, and have to decide emotionally. Fortunately, even deciding on incorrect criteria is mostly harmless. It's unfortunate that so many are incapable of making informed choices, depending instead on the orthodoxy prescribed by whichever tribe they joined.

Dear god when are they going to treat this illness instead of just leaving you to almost die in the hospital. Hospitals are now a death trap, protocols are made by AI in the electronic medical records such as Epic. Medicine is no longer in the hands of doctors. I do not want to go into a US hospital. I buy private insurance at about 1000+ a month, I would gladly pay a monthly fee to a hospital chain directly if they would have a comprehensive approach to heal you, including nutrition, rest, and yes medicines and procedures IF you need them. If they could look you in the eye instead of at the computer screen and speak with your family that would also be a plus.

Any doctors want to band together and get it started? I want out of this government/hospital administrator run healthcare system.
