Good newa; glad to hear…keep on healing…

The immune system has two basic functions: to identify foreign tissue and to provide defense against infection.

In general, the more immunocompromised someone is, the less effective vaccines will be for them.

Immunotherapy is a treatment that can suppress, or dampen, immune responses when the immune system is “overactive,”

So goes Israel.

Pat King is a key figure leading the trucker protest. He is a white nationalist and a thug. Here is one link highlighting some of the controversy around this guy:

No, I will not participate in any demonstration that gives any firm of approval to the likes of this guy. Not even if he is perfectly aligned with me on the issue of vax mandates. To do so would be to choose fascism over our current corporatism. Horrible choice but that’s where we are. Nothing short of deplorable that we have no sane leadership in Canada on covid.

Sumac- do you really think that guy is the reason those truckers are doing what they’re doing?

“And yet she claims there are hydras”

And yet here you are two years later claiming against all CDC evidence and advice that masks and vaccines work.

I mean, at least previously you believed “The Science”. What’s the excuse now?

These guys were wrong every minute of every day for 727 days now. So is it really that much of a stretch to think they might be a leeeetle bit more wronger somewhere? Yes, apparently. For those refusing CDC evidence they were wrong in the first place.

“Quebec Bans Unvaccinated from Buying Groceries at Walmart, Costco (TNC)”

I’m sorry, it was only last week that you were REQUIRED to shop at Walmart and Costco in order to aggregate the maximum people together for transmission. They had closed all small business by force. But today the #Science is the #Opposite.

“your great-great-great-grandchildren will still be getting immunized against coronavirus,’ … you got your flu vaccine this fall you were immunized against a strain of influenza”

No I didn’t, and neither did hardly anybody else. And it was really lowering profits and p-ssing them off. However, data showed flu vaccines so nearly useless as to be statistical error. As any idiot could see: if you prevent a cold vector, that specific strain will be far less likely to work. So every competitor will spread instead, rendering the vaccine useless. Every year. 100%. …Don’t worry, Scientists are too retarded to figure it out after 20 years of hard work. Their paychecks depend on it.

“Spotify Sides With Joe Rogan, Removes Neil Young’s Music: ‘A Costly Move’ (NYP)”

Not really. Neil barely owned the catalog and who listens to him anyway? I guess all the groundwork I set for how incredibly, impossible old and totally, TOTALLY obsolete and irrelevant bands are really paid off. And I was talking about AC/DC, DECADES newer than Neil Young. I mean, wasn’t he in vaudeville?

Listen, I’m not young either, but I can read a gol-durned CALENDAR. I know what DECADE is. Young is from – 1966 – that’s SIXTY years ago. As I’ve said before we have COLONELS in office who graduated in Y2K. Your Medical DOCTOR was born before 1996. Do adults really not know how passed on and irrelevant they are?

“ADRIAN! ADRIAN!!! I’m still a contender, Adrian.”

Jesus man, get a grip on yourself. Joe Rogan is an old man and he’s HALF Young’s age.

“I am not censoring anyone.” –Young Yes. Yes you are. You are specifically asking for someone to be censored to the very fullness of your abilities. Instead of believing in people, believing in truth, and believing people will come around to the best information and decision if we talk it out openly. He has lost faith in man, and therefore in freedom. His purpose in life is to prevent other people from doing what he doesn’t like. Now “Get off my lawn!”

So did he do this to Bossa Nova and the Tijuana Brass? He refused to sell to corrupt record companies during Vietnam or were record companies just so moral and clean then? Uh-huh. Neil Young: another Boomer Canadian Fascist. So. Proud.

The world bows to me. The world revolves around me. Kill the youth! Don’t let them have a voice on radio those 5 Million dang anti-war terrorists!

He also has no idea what he’s protesting or objects to. Rogan had Gupta on. Is that what he’s protesting? He won’t say. Or is it Malone? Because the CDC is now approaching convergence with DOCTOR Malone, saying vaccines don’t work, masks don’t work, lock downs don’t work, tests don’t work, and vaccines don’t stop the spread. So Mr. Young is a CDC denier? That’s his real problem? Because Rogan is a CDC PROMOTER for having Gupta on.

Since we’re now the 100% Covid channel can we switch gears to the economy now that oil is $90 and markets are tanking worldwide? That’s going to kill a lot more people than Covid; but heck — statistically everything kills more people than Covid. According to the CDC. Today anyway. Tomorrow all the science and stats will reverse again and people here will Support/oppose/support/oppose the latest CDC guidance.

Charts: very bad, moving so fast there’s little point in posting them. Rates: inverting fast, will be obsolete in days. Bonds: garbage. Stocks: garbage. World stocks: far worse. US$: not too good either, but there is the requisite rush to safety out of margin-unprecedented-in-world-history with stock prices/valuations unprecedented-in-world-history. Rates rising: housing and commercial RE tank. Rates rising: drop in stocks. Rates rising: WITH inflation in a stagflationary nightmare that will kill the poor more than they’re already dead, dead, dead.

The poor will therefore revolt, right now, and are. Past tense. It’s our “Western Spring” where Fed-created rising food prices lead to the toppling of governments NOT to be replaced by Klaus Schwab nor anybody like him. Instead, the complete ineptitude and disbelief in governments, leading to devolution and decentralization. The Unthinkable: People not doing what they’re told! By Neil Young. Our unelected leader of that-which-can-be-said.

Leading to what? He world does not yet know. Economic theory says screwing with money prices (rates) leads to a terrible and eventually total, all-encompassing “Mis-allocation” of resources. Where we have Playstations out the wazoo and no corn chips. 99% of a car but not enough car to sell. Lots of cars but no gasoline to run them. Plenty of houses but no shingles. Multiply by EVERY. SINGLE. CONSUMER. Good. That’s “Mis-allocation”. The total f—k-up of central planning. Idiots squared, spread widely.

Problem: since it’s not “oil” that’s our problem, not “corn”, but “Every. Stinking. Thing.” Tractor chips, cold medicine, lettuce, tires, you can’t “Fix it” by opening a N95 mask plant or building a new grain elevator. They’ve f’d EVERYTHING. We need brake pads BUT ONLY Brake pads for the 2011 Malibu and have too many brake pads for the 1999 Toyota. We have too many chocolate bars but no Romaine. Post-it notes and no toilet paper.

So you tell ME how you “fix the supply chain” in this situation. You can’t. Only honesty, honest money, and an end to market rigging can send the accurate signals to the market again and start fixing how you broke EVERYTHING. And that fix really quite slowly. Years. Decades. While everyone who won on previous market rigging all go dead-broke and fail as that rigging stops.

There is no solution but honesty and taking your medicine, which Ain’t nobody gonna do. But it’s starting right now whether Powell likes it or not. Remember how “The Fed will never let the market crash” in 1999? They can print money. Or in 2008? Subprime is contained? They can always print money? “They” won’t let it happen? How’d that work out for you?

And here, rates rising, inverting, recession already begun, “They” are going to stop it this time like Never once beforein history? They CAUSE the crashes, people! with too-low rates raised barely by half. We’ve now had red-line stimulus of too-low rates for DECADES past what the markets should have. We’ve got 8-15% inflation and rates at 1%. Powell is ONE THOUSAND, FIVE HUNDRED basis points behind the curve and rising 100bp a month.

But I’m sure it’ll all work out fine. Just here, hold this bag for me. Stocks only go up.

What a phlunkin’ dumb truck, that Canadian prime minister: … that fully vaxxed, yellow chicken is locking himself in the house for next five days! Freedom Convoy rolls into Ottawa this weekend, …

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he’s isolating for five days after he was exposed to COVID-19.

F.S.

“”… your great-great-great-grandchildren will still be getting immunized against coronavirus…”
Really? Is that because he thinks I am getting the flu vaccine now? I think I may have received the flu vaccine once or twice in the past 30 years…but it has been so long that I don’t recall when it was. The flu vaccine makes no sense for me, nor for many others. The only time I get a bad case of the flu is when I am badly stressed out…and I don’t always get it then. My asthmatic mother doesn’t usually bother with the flu vaccine.

So, sure, if my great-great-great-grandchildren are very aged or have many comorbidities they might take a coronavirus vaccine.

Or, just maybe, very few folks will be taking vaccines because we all learned not to trust big pharma, and learned that vaccines have limitations and humanity never did get a vaccine that worked appropriately for a coronavirus!

@sumac.carol, post 99202

It is my understanding that the organizers of the Canadian truckers convoy are Tamara Lich and D.J. Dichter (as noted on the Truckers Convoy GoFundMe page). Tamara has made a point of distancing herself from Pat King and explicitly stated he is not leading the convoy, though obviously he’s fully participating in it.

One concern I have is that the MSM, when they do mention the story, state the funding has been frozen – which is not true. Is that a ploy to get people to stop contributing? Donations are currently over $6 million dollars in any case!

For the first time since covid started, I am feeling a bit of hope. The convoy has also revealed how many of us are in support of freedom and ending all mandates.

TAE and those who post comments have become a huge support system to me. Thank you all!!

@Figmund Sreud, post 99208

Justin Trudeau found a way to hide from the truckers!! He’s isolating for 5 days but I think the truckers will be there longer than that. I wonder how the Canadian government is going to handle this convoy?!

Yin & Yang
During the siege of Sarajevo in early 90’s, first defenders were the city’s thugs and criminals since they were the only one who had weapons.

I was chatting with one of my kids about medical masks vs. cloth masks. So, 10% fewer Covid infections if all are wearing medical masks vs. cloth masks means that…

In two equal sized groups of people, one wearing cloth masks, one medical masks

Say 100 of the cloth maskers would get Covid
And 90 of the medical maskers would get Covid.

I asked my son: If I were immunocompromised or had comorbidities that made Covid dangerous to me, would I feel significantly safer if I and everyone else were wearing medical masks rather than cloth masks?

If Covid is super dangerous to me, than that danger is barely mitigated by medical vs. cloth masks. If Covid is a danger to me, I’d best avoid contact with others who might spread Covid to me — which means social isolation or hanging out only with the Covid recovered, non-symptomatic — and Covid vax status is as irrelevant to my safety as the mask that may or may not be worn. Likewise, if Covid is super dangerous to me, it makes sense to use prophylaxes such as vitamin D and zinc, etc., and to get treatment quickly should I contract symptomatic Covid.

Why is it, I wonder, that so many minds have been hijacked to such an extent that they cannot see and/or follow this logic, cannot arrive at this conclusion?
(I know, rhetorical question: mass formation is the answer.)

Here’s another one: on the trucker’s page of Tamara Linch, they show a clip by Pierre Poilievre, who was one of Prime Minister Harper’s key people. One of Poilievre’s claims to fame was a push to bring “right to work” (ie kill unions) legislation into Canada. Either Linch agrees with Poilievre’s perspectives or she is politically naive in accepting support from someone who happens to agree with the anti-vax perspective but does not agree with her other perspectives. Either way this is not a good sign. I’m guessing Linch is not naive because she is quite politically active:

I would be the first to line up in support of a leader who was clean.
Of course truckers are there for their own good reasons; however, in allowing themselves to be aligned with compromised leaders, they are helping to build a leadership platform for these nefarious folks, who will certainly put their new-found high profiles to use.

It’s good to know that there are some establishment voices who aren’t drinking the “let’s start WWIII” Kool-Aid:

YA THINK???

One more try:

Christ was from an outdated, disreputable family that was pointedly anti-progressive and had mentally-ill cousins living in the forest. He was Pro-Roman, anti-church and violently pro assault weapon. MLK and Assange were sleeping around. I guess we can’t have political views then, or political allies. Poof: the bad guys win. I don’t do no work; I might get my apron dirty. But it sure is easy to sit on the couch and scold others. I can complain about the work of other men all day so long as I don’t have to do any of my own.

It took the CDC 2 years to figure out N95 masks work better than cloth? Of course not. So it’s curious why they suddenly announce this, during the least deadly variant wave yet. What a crock. It’s actually comical how most people wear their mask. I don’t wear one unless I simply can’t get away with not wearing one, such as work. Even at the height of the pandemic, when shopping I only ever wore a cloth bandana. Science my ass. Truly we’ve become a nation of hysterical retards.
