Coronavirus Crisis: Main Thread

^^^Not to mention, in this gaslight theatre, where are all the BIOHAZARD waste baskets!???

Da da doooon!

"This scourge", huh. The IFR is 0.2, which places it within range of influenza.

Many died due to lockdown-related measures and initial treatments (particularly ventilators).

The numbers and stats have been misleading and/or manipulated from the start.

But i repeat myself. Again.

Might as well repeat myself. Again. Too. Why is every country on Earth taking part in this deception? Why is everyone willingly trashing their economies to further the lie?

So the below outcomes are simply just... what? "Unfortunate" byproducts of world leaders attempting to resolve the health crisis?

In one year of covid hysteria billionaires’ wealth increased by $5 trillion, CEOs saw a 29% pay raise, 150 million people fell into extreme poverty, and thousands of children starved to death. This was all sold to us as “public health.” It’s the greatest fraud in human history.

239,000 excess child and maternal deaths in South Asia alone:
https://news.un.org/en/story/2021/03/1087542
Severe disruptions in health services due to the COVID-19 pandemic may have resulted in an additional 239,000 child and maternal deaths in South Asia last year, United Nations agencies said on Wednesday.

Almost all from preventable causes

[the above excludes deaths and loss of livelihoods due to lockdown measures Stateside. Terminal or seriously ill avoiding necessary treatments; sharp rises in drug overdoses and suicides in the past year. All due at least in part to lockdowns and related restrictive measures. And now we can add 'vaccine'-related deaths and near-term adverse effects. We'll have to wait another ~year for any potential long-term effects to -- hopefully not -- kick in. We don't know, because there is NO DATA AT ALL Re: long-term adverse effects for these experimental shots]

Look at all the related threads here covering aspects of events related to this virus. These are not disparate, random, happenstance scenarios.

In an increasingly interconnected world where massive wealth is concentrated in ever fewer hands and all media is owned by a handful of entities, how is this such a difficult concept to accept?

No, it's not the fucking "illuminati", nor the "elite", at least not the elite we're familiar with, front-facing and visible [well, except perhaps for Gates and a few aspiring beasts like Bezos].
It's the squirrels. The squirrels run it all.



Here's a microcosm:

All public companies -- and some private/"non-profit" companies -- have a Board of Directors; a small committee of executives from other corporate entities that gather and oversee company governance.
They generally don't micro-manage, or even necessarily offer details, but they [ostensibly] direct initiatives and long-term strategy, and help maintain policy adherence. (or whatever corporate-speak tasks they're charged with. WRex's twitter comment in the prior page is applicable, more so with certain entities than others: "these institutions have immense power only in principle, and very little latitude to wield it. In practice they are reactive, schizophrenic, and unable to bear responsibility.")

But somehow this premise is IMPOSSIBLE at scale, when FAR MORE Monies, Power and Influence are at stake, eh?

You can continue to hold on tight to your position. "It can't possibly be coordinated, even loosely, therefore NONE of it is sinister in intent. It's just flawed leadership attempting to solve complex scenarios".

Despite mounting evidence to the contrary, the 'happenstance' position will continue to be clenched tight.

If the events of 2020 can't open minds to the concept that things are not as outwardly presented, nothing will. Enjoy the Soma.

Of course there's rich fuckers in cahoots to enrich themselves (see the UK response for a particularly nauseating example), and of course there is sinister intent on the part of some people who see this as an opportunity to push through new policies (Schwab and friends), or both, but none of those things exclude the possibility that there is also a virus going around killing a shit ton of people. It would be so much easier for "them" to do their evil deeds if the virus was real and as bad as reported. No need to worry about the bluff being called, and no need to pull off a global psyop.

Understandable points for the most part, but my primary objection/position is how they've oversold the actual lethality of the virus -- not to mention the constant fearporn/manipulation, and misleading presentation, of the raw data -- all of which drive the needle further into the red (for me at least) in the direction of concerted effort to minimally capitalize on a crisis, if not outright advance planning months or years beforehand.

Similar to 9/11 in certain respects.

How do any of us view 911? I doubt anyone in this forum subscribes to the notion that 'terrorists' were responsible (well, at least not the terrorists depicted in the media).
If entities can plan, carry out, and cover up an event as 911 -- 20 yrs ago -- similar or related entities can sure as hell carry out other large-scale events in a world markedly more centralized, conditioned, and interconnected than in the early 00s.

2 very different operations, granted, and it's unlikely for us to know any of the details -- there will be (and have been) misdirections, red herrings, gaslighting, limited hangouts, poisoned wells.... all the standard M.O.s, perhaps more refined than before.

To me, rather then attempting to find out how this all started -- as it's moot, and other than a would-be fall guy or two in the coming year+ [beware, Fauci], justice will never be served -- i'm far more interested in the plans these beasts have in store in the months/years ahead, particularly in the areas of privacy and autonomy. Mandated shots, electronic health passport requirements and blockchain-related monetary tracking, UBI and related control mechanisms, etc.

I highly doubt any of these looming initiatives will be going away. To the contrary, they have only just begun their ramp-up, already initiated in beta form within 'Blue State' cities.

And many will line right up to subscribe. They already have.

It's interesting the creator of this blog/forum is the most hardcore anti mask/vaxxer Ive seen online, and sadly despite being a "good little liberal" for a long time I fully believe the origins of Covid are fishy as hell. This is absolutely not like past pandemics of the past few decades. Its not to diminish the unimaginable horror show going on in Brazil, India and America...but are we really to believe the elites are telling the truth about Covid-19 being some random "Zoonetic" animal jump even tho there's no evidence of this or the wet market theory? Also even if Covid came from a lab, this is not to blame China which the globalists probably want to do for their WW3 scenario. If anything I feel the US funded the level 4 lab where the gain-a-function Covid escaped from

There was no "pandemic" in 2017, so how does one explain this? (and keep in mind: these are the 'official' COVID tallies referenced below, subject to inflated and unprecedented -- prior to 2020 -- criteria).

Hints: media/govt-induced hysteria, fearporn, and manipulation of metrics.

[2017] 401,000 deaths in excess
[2020] 376,504 deaths ascribed to COVID-19

"CDC reported that 376,504 deaths ascribed to COVID-19 occurred in 2020. ...similar to but below the estimated total number of excess deaths of 401,000 in 2017."


2017 ECLIPSES 2020 IN LIFE YEARS LOST

[2017] 13.02 million life years lost excess mortality
[2020] 4.41 million years of life lost to COVID-19

...because "COVID-19 deaths in 2020 occurred at much older ages, on average, than the excess deaths of 2017."

Come on, that's way offside, 8-Bit. Like a billion other people online, he's not an anti-vaxxer, he's properly skeptical about a new technology that's being administered through hard persuasion and/or outright coercion, both official and social, he's aware of the extremely alarming deep political context to this, and he's observing the vast psychosocial damage appearing in the wake of questionable public health policy seemingly driven by viciously anti-human supranational forces who aren't even pretending otherwise. (They have the Media for that.)

And in Canada, we're fucked. I've never been more frightened.

If there was a "like" button (and frankly, I prefer this forum keep to its anachronistic ways), I'd click it for Streeb's comment. Spot-on.

[Harvey]

I also agree entirely with Streeb. Jeff evinced an admirable consistency of depth and perception over time, something lacking even among many seasoned RI'ers. One need only look at how many were taken in by 'RussiaGate' if further proof were needed. And yet, consider how generally respectful of others those of us who didn't 'buy in' tended to be. Recall how we were regarded as Trump supporters or enablers (when nothing could be further from the truth) merely for doubting the specific narrative. Team sports, team perceptions. Unlike Freitag, who actually voted for Trump, we were merely sceptical of the claims being made with regard to Russia and time has proved us entirely right, but far too late. It is certainly instructive to remember how little discernment occurred here during that entire period, a fact which ought to provoke a modest degree introspection with regard to how little is occurring now.

Perhaps 8bit would do well to examine his own self, yearning as he is to adopt the thought stopping slogans propagated by corporate media on behalf of all those supranational powers.

"blue states" are being owned by "red states" right now. All of this only underscores the stupidity of it all at the State level. As if a virus recognizes imaginary lines on an f'ing map.
States like NJ continue to hold to their mask mandates despite all evidence indicating masks are ineffective, particularly now that we have more than 2 months of data from other States that lifted mandates. Decisions being made based purely on State politics. Despicable.

Of course, when flu season comes back around late Fall we'll go through this entire charade all over again.

@GregAbbott_TX

Today Texas reported:

* 0 Covid related deaths--the only time that's happened since data was tracked in March, 2020.

* the fewest Covid cases in over 13 months

* the lowest 7-day Covid positivity rate ever

* the lowest Covid hospitalizations in 11 months.

Thanks, Texans!

Three weeks ago, expert Megan Ranney tweeted out that in person dining combined with decreased masking was a “recipe for a surge”

Cases are down -43% since

How much longer will it be before the media acknowledges that experts had absolutely no idea what they were doing

@IAmTheActualET

To all the fear pornographers somehow suggesting COVID hospitalizations in younger people are rising "because variants" or what have you - hospitalization rates are falling in all age demographics, but faster in seniors, hence proportion of younger demographic being higher

mRNA vaccine delivery using lipid nanoparticles

Abstract

mRNA vaccines elicit a potent immune response including antibodies and cytotoxic T cells. mRNA vaccines are currently evaluated in clinical trials for cancer immunotherapy applications, but also have great potential as prophylactic vaccines. Efficient delivery of mRNA vaccines will be key for their success and translation to the clinic. Among potential nonviral vectors, lipid nanoparticles are particularly promising. Indeed, lipid nanoparticles can be synthesized with relative ease in a scalable manner, protect the mRNA against degradation, facilitate endosomal escape, can be targeted to the desired cell type by surface decoration with ligands, and as needed, can be codelivered with adjuvants.
