Reality check is at TAE
You found the studyThe death toll from the coronavirus pandemic shows startling variation, some countries having rates of less than ten per million, while western Europe and the USA are in the hundreds. Among the likely reasons are ecological (high population density and urbanisation), demographic (ageing and multicultural societies) and clinical (obesity and chronic disease such as diabetes mellitus). Also, there are significant differences in diagnostic practice and recording.
Niall McCrae and David Kurten: EU Numbers Show Correlation Between Flu Vaccine and Coronavirus Deaths
By Jim Hoft
Published May 13, 2020 at 9:41pmHowever, a factor that hasn’t been considered is the flu vaccine, which is widely administered to the elderly. Some correlation with Covid-19 mortality, although not necessarily causal, is readily apparent. The medical establishment tends to cast any critic of vaccination as an extremist, but we are not ‘anti-vaxxers’. We present our case tentatively, and leave it to readers to decide whether this is a reasonable line of enquiry.

…. spit in your hand, and shake hand, (with Liz Cheney), to seal the deal.July 3, 2020 at 2:27 pm #60772TomasParticipantGreat photo, too bad it is not still like that as they have dropped the WWII monument in between the Washington monument and placed it right at the edge of the reflecting pool of the Lincoln Memorial. Replacing any grand effect with a Disney land park like confusion of hyper activity with the proverbial splashing fountain in the middle of a concrete pavilion with no protection from the sun.
The WWII monument is divided at it’s center by the east west axis of the mall with a Atlantic section representing the European theater in the north and a Pacific section representing the Pacific theater in the south at odds with the major east west axis of the mall. If you are standing on the major axis you would be looking either directly to the east and the Atlantic or to the west and the Pacific. I know there was the North Atlantic and The South Pacific theaters in the war but it sure seems out of wack with the already established movement of the major axis, where one feels there is a great, movement toward the vast openness of the west, the rest of the country and the setting sun behind the Pacific Ocean.
The already existing monuments on the axis the Capital, the Washington monument and the Lincoln memorial are all balanced like the human face by symmetry, with one half of the building in the south and one half in the north, that is crossing the central axis, uniting the four quadrants of east and west, north and south. The WWII monument on the other hand is split by the east west axis like a broken plate creating a feeling of division and boredom, instead of unity and strength. Revealing the center or the dominant axis is a major aesthetic flaw, the center is implied and felt but not seen, it is the underlying geometry that does the yeoman’s work of organizing and making space intelligible to the human mind.

The American public helped finance the development of remdesivir
That’s a $3,000 price tag for a government-sponsored drug treatment that experts say the company could offer at $10 and still make a profit.
Federal officials most certainly could do things to reduce the price of remdesivir and any other COVID treatment.They just refuse.

The Latest Research on COVID-19 Treatments and Medications in the Pipeline
There are no approved coronavirus treatments at this time.
The drug that’s furthest along in clinical trials for treating COVID-19 is remdesivir, a new intravenous antiviral that the FDA has not yet approved, though they did grant an emergency use authorization for it to make it more accessible.On June 1, 2020, Gilead announced more results from their phase 3 study — this time they looked at hospitalized patients with moderate symptoms of COVID-19. People who got remdesivir for 5 days were 65% more likely to improve on day 11 compared to those who did not get the treatment. Some people got remdesivir for 10 days, and they also seemed more likely to improve compared to those who didn’t get any. The difference was not statistically significant, though (in other words, this might’ve happened by chance). Until more data is shared, it’s unclear why remdesivir appears to work better when given for 5 days instead of 10 days.
Not all remdesivir studies have been positive. Take a study of 236 patients with COVID-19 in China, for example. (This was a randomized, double-blinded study, which is the gold standard for clinical trials.) In one specific analysis, a group of patients in the study who received remdesivir within 10 days of showing symptoms recovered slightly more quickly than those who received a placebo. However, this difference was not statistically significant, meaning it could have been due to chance. When looking at all patients in the study (regardless of when they received remdesivir), there was no difference in time to improvement compared to placebo. The researchers state that larger studies are needed to confirm the results.

Do you think that covid19 might have come from a lab? How about a lab in the USA?
Do you think that covid19 could have been going around before being detected and announce by China?
The people who have been involved or who know are listed in the following papers from the Department of Defensehttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31066571/

These estimates highlight the need for continued influenza surveillance and VE estimate calculations each season among the different DoD populations as circulating strains and VE may change annually.( Don’t take my word. If you can understand the special language used in those papers, do your own research and arrive at your own conclusions)

Does the Flu Shot Increase COVID-19 Risk (YES!) and Other Interesting Questions
This may be the most important newsletter I have written to date. Here are a few quick answers to the questions I will cover in case you aren’t interested in the whole story:
Does the flu shot increase the risk for coronavirus infection? YES!
Could a new flu vaccine be partly responsible for the COVID-19 mortality rate in Italy? YES!
Is the rush to a vaccine the best solution? No, it could bring catastrophic results.
How does the SARS-CoV-2 infect and are protease enzyme supplements the key to creating our own endogenous antiviral protease inhibitors? Yes, I believe so!
Are there certain medications like blood pressure drugs and proton pump inhibitors that increase risk for infection and mortality? YES
Is it chloroquine or is it zinc that is working as a possible aid in treating COVID-19? A strong case can be made for zinc!
Can plant polyphenols and flavonoids act to increase the antiviral effects of zinc? YES! And they possess other benefits too!The rest of the newsletter will explain these somewhat controversial conclusions. It is a lot to cover. So, I am going to be as concise as possible. References are provided for those so inclined.

Abstract
This report primarily focuses on the data collected and analyzed from the worldwide network of sentinel military treatment facilities chosen to participate in the Department of Defense Global Respiratory Pathogen Surveillance (DoDGRS) program. Sites that participated in the 2018-2019 DoDGRS program submitted 24,320 respiratory specimens for diagnostic testing. Clinical results showed a total of 5,968 positive influenza cases. In the beginning of the season, starting in surveillance week 48, influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 was the predominant subtype. The predominant subtype switched to influenza A(H3N2) beginning in week 6 and continued through the end of the season. Influenza B virus detection was less common during the surveillance period (i.e., 1% of total submitted specimens and 5% of total influenza detected). In addition to routine surveillance, the DoDGRS program also conducts vaccine effectiveness (VE) studies twice per year to determine interim and end of season estimates. Overall, the adjusted end of season VE for all dependents regardless of influenza type was 30% (95% CI: 22%-38%).July 3, 2020 at 9:50 pm #60781DimitriParticipantYou have been had ….

I think there are two illnesses out there. The “novel” coronavirus is a mild disease. The hypoxemic, blood-turns-to-glue syndrome is rare (so far), and studying it has been precluded by the hype of the former. I suspect it involves a major scandal.
I think it is a “co-factor” syndrome, which is why I had looked into the vaccinations and drugs they pump into frail folks in care homes, or urge on frail folks who live at home.
For “fun”, check the FDA’s drug recall website. A bad batch of something interacting with something else is as likely to be implicated as a virus cooked up in a lab. The “novel” coronavirus is a cover, IMO.

Here in central Texas we peer over the precipice into super-summer, our next season, a season that you may not enjoy where you live. We have had good June rains, and clouds hang in the sky, reflecting and diffusing the strong sun. When these clouds go away, and the rains stop (next week, they say) it will get hotter. Super-summer persists until late August and early September rains come to break it, which didn’t really happen last year. It was a long summer last year.
This year, prepare early for fall-planting in September. That is the most versatile time to begin a garden in central Texas. Here is my strategic-gardening post from 7/4/16, 4 months before the 2016 election, http://www.johndayblog.com/2016/07/liberty-garden-central-texas-climate.html

They looked at data covering the entire population of Portugal, and cross-linked the people regularly taking HCQ with the people having a laboratory test result for Covid-19 (either positive or negative).
The study concluded that chronic treatment with HCQ confers protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection. The odds ratio was 0.51 (after adjustment for age, sex, and chronic treatment with corticosteroids and/or immunosuppressants), meaning that the people who regularly take HCQ (for lupus, etc.) were about half as likely to have a laboratory-confirmed case of Covid-19.

July 4, 2020 at 1:13 am #60789Doc RobinsonParticipantAn old article in the The Baltimore Sun describes a number of biosafety problems, and potential problems, at Fort Detrick, Maryland.
Trouble in the air at Fort Detrick
by Kenneth King
February 28, 2011Even without deliberately floating its germs in the air, USAMRIID [Fort Detrick’s U.S. Army Medical Research Institute for Infectious Diseases] has had trouble keeping track of them. In 2009, it discovered 9,200-plus vials (one-eighth of its stock) weren’t logged into inventory. In 2003, while cleaning up a leaking Detrick chemical dump, employees found 100-plus vials of buried live bacteria. “The documentation for where this came from doesn’t exist,” Detrick’s safety director at the time, Lt. Col. Donald Archibald, stammered.
There have been multiple instances since 2001 of Detrick anthrax ending up at places it wasn’t supposed to be — inside the facility and (according to the FBI) outside as well, in the U.S. Postal Service.
In 2009, after safety lapses exposed a USAMRIID researcher to tularemia, two weeks passed before anyone suspected her illness was tularemia, the focus of her research. At Boston University in 2004, and at Texas A&M in 2006, months elapsed before infected researchers were correctly diagnosed. Sick biodefense researchers seem rarely to suspect the diseases they’re researching.
Lab-acquired infections are a particular concern now that researchers at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the University of Wisconsin and elsewhere have brought the 1918 flu back to life, and developed deadly bird flus that transmit easily between humans.
Such recklessness makes laughable USAMRIID Commander John Skvorak’s declaration that USAMRIID is “tightly regulated” by the Army and CDC. The Government Accountability Office’s chief technologist testified in 2007 that the country’s now 1,300-plus “high-containment” germ labs were essentially regulating themselves. Little has changed since then.
According to the Dallas Morning News, CDC inspections missed or ignored a veritable biosafety train wreck at Texas A&M until a public expose by a small nonprofit forced the CDC to suspend the university’s select agent research and investigate further. The red-faced agency ultimately issued a 21-page report on A&M’s safety lapses.
CDC administrators ignored warnings of their own engineers about the backup power configuration for the CDC’s new suite of BSL-4 labs, causing a complete power loss and loss of negative air pressure in 2007. A second power loss occurred in occupied CDC labs that same year.
The CDC didn’t even require that research developing new bird flus — probably the most dangerous germ research in the country — be conducted at the highest level of containment.
The CDC also allowed USAMRIID researcher Peter Jahrling to conduct experiments trying to infect monkeys with smallpox. Currently, smallpox does not infect animals other than humans. That’s why world health authorities were able (they thought) to eradicate the disease. Risking the establishment of an animal reservoir for smallpox makes about as much sense as resurrecting the 1918 flu.
The CDC’s reputation for “safety” rests on its secrecy, and on the fact that it hasn’t killed anyone in Atlanta since two janitors died of Rocky Mountain spotted fever in 1976.

Is the Coronavirus Scare a Psychological Operation?
Posted on June 3, 2020
The common impression is that the entire matter began in reaction to events in China but even that is not clear. For example, the virus is said to have originated in the city of Wuhan and the first, limited, lockdown occurred in that area from January to March. China has since said that it warned the WHO about the virus during the first week of January. However, it is known that U.S. intelligence agencies, (https://www.forbes.com/sites/mattperez/2020/04/08/report-us-intelligence-officials-warned-about-coronavirus-in-wuhan-in-late-november/#620cbf95a1eb )
were aware of the potential outbreak even before that, in November 2019. A Chinese spokesman later suggested that the U.S. military might have brought the virus to Wuhan during the military games held there in October. ( https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/coronavirus-chinese-official-suggests-u-s-army-blame-outbreak-n1157826 )Whether SARS-COV-2 was genetically engineered in a laboratory, like the NIAID-funded Wuhan lab, is a subject that has become of interest to many scientists. The Wuhan laboratory is not the only place the U.S. supports work like this, however, as the Pentagon funds such labs in 25 countries across the world. Located in places such as Eastern Europe, the Middle East, South East Asia, and Africa, these labs isolate and manipulate viruses like the bat coronaviruses from which SARS-COV-2 originated. This bat-research program is further coordinated by a group called EcoHealth Alliance. ( https://www.ecohealthalliance.org/ )

Go figure…July 4, 2020 at 9:41 am #60797Dr. DParticipantGeorgia chart is quite telling. It says the lie is in framing. Reopening? Nothing. (~5 day delay) Mr. Floyd killed May 25th. Riots begin. Spike starts on June 15. Nah. Can’t be. I read science that riots actually STOPPED the spread of CV: the virus can tell.
“What these relatively decent jobs numbers may actually show is an economy that reopened too quickly.”
Huh. How do you figure? Chart above says reopening did nothing. Ziltch. What to do when that happens? Report it anyway, of course! You know, how 60% of NYers got CV while under quarantine in their house? So clearly it was all that going out and reopening that did it. Science!
“With almost 2.7 million confirmed Covid-19 cases”
Which means nothing if they’re not sick
“and 128,000 deaths”
20-40,000 of which were intentionally caused and 50-90% of the others were caused by refusing multiple cures we have, including HCQ, which doctors have used as high as 99% success rate in hard-hit NY.
…What were you saying again? This disease which has a 500K ÷ 8B = 0.0000625 rate.
How many people die on earth? 150,000. A DAY. x ½ x 365 = 27,300,000
In other words, you can barely pick them out of the statistical noise. Especially with the deaths being over 70 + comorbidity. Quarantine the nursing homes. You know, the way that is legal and done for 500 years?
…But they need this to rig the elections. They don’t care if a million people die, ‘voluntarily’, by withholding care. Don’t care if the Lancet helps kill all 1M of them. And lately to stop immediate hyperinflation as the system goes exponential, overnight bailouts are $1T/day. You need a lot of deflation to counteract the exponential end of the system. And since they could care less and actively WANT you all dead, means nothing to kill a hundred thou, a mil, to do it, just as they would in a war. Which is what this is.
Spending the 4th watching “Hamilton” while insurgents shuttle guns and armor to revolutionaries in unmarked vehicles, trying to burn down police stations with heavy fighting for 12+ hours. The entire city is only one of several torn up, laid waste, bullet holes, graffiti, biohazard, arson, rape, murder, killing black children in the streets. Just the way they wanted, are funding, and supporting glowingly on TV. Okay.
“China Didn’t Alert WHO To Coronavirus Outbreak — The Internet Did (DC)”
Maybe, but Taiwan did and WHO ignored them. We know that officially. Did Ft. Deitrick do it? What makes you think any of their past leaks were accidental?
“a vast a majority of Americans want to bring the troops home.”
The government hasn’t done what the people want since I can remember when. Vietnam?
“A patriot must always be ready to defend his country against his government.” — Edward Abbey
He wasn’t the first. Thomas Paine said likewise. The government is not the nation, not the people. They are usually AGAINST the nation and the people, advancing their own self-interests, which is often but not entirely the interests of oligarchy. But we have an answer: More Government!
“Can anyone explain the logic?”
The logic? Destroy everything. Forever. Any reference to anything, any person, and time, other than myself, my ego, is a limit of my perfect, endless, abusive power. Like the Orwell quote says. And they support this as a goal most desired, because their minds are either aligned to rebellion, or to order.
Oh and PS, did anyone ask? Did anyone poll the groups in question? Not on your life. They got a couple people who don’t like it – because there are always a couple people mad at anything and making a buck on it. But the head of BET said yesterday he thought white people liberals were stupid, maybe they should ask what black people want. You know, like scholarships, not burning down black businesses and black infrastructure in black cities? Jericho Green noted “I don’t want to live in a world without blackface.” You know: a world without jokes. A world where no one can be stupid and nothing is ever forgiven.
“Hamilton” has every character cross-cast, although I suppose they’ll be bigots for not cross-casting them by gender too. No one cared, because it’s not the point. But wait! I thought it was bigotry, cultural appropriation and oppression not to have the exact race of the exact character play the actor of the character. You know: down to where if you have a half-black half-Haitian child, you must go find a half-black, half Haitian voice. You know: instead of an “Actor” which is what we used to have. This just happened for the cartoon “Central Park.” Apparently she was not allowed to play the character’s white half. As irony is dead, no doubt soon Nancy Cartwright can no longer voice Bart Simpson, nor Chuckie, but only 50 year-old women. Ah, what a wonderful world that will be when we get rid of “Acting” in favor of a fringe religion based on “race purity” which doesn’t scientifically exist.
‘Cause that’s what this is: a religion. And it’s the old religion. You might remember it from a previous wave of the “National Social Democratic Worker’s Party.”
Notes from the other day:
“Othering” is making someone “not us” but “them.” Actually, unless you’re demented in other ways that shouldn’t matter either, but most are so… So in our “othering”: “they” are bad, “they” aren’t even human. So of course it’s morally good and right to dress up n black and punch anyone you think might be “them”, attack their children with guns and fireworks, get them demonetized, de-banked and de-jobbed. You know: God’s work. When you hurt enough “others” with arson, extortion, and murder, then you’re good guy! It’s obvious! See 1930s race-based religion, above.
“ The Central Bank “Bailout of Everything” Will Be a Disaster (Lacalle)”
Yes. It’ Socialism. No one can fail: we pay everyone for everything. And of course you have rich guys in rich dachas with private security at the top, while the poor get poorer. The good and working are not rewarded, the bad and lazy are not punished. Logic and physics are suspended leading to complete madness and chaos. But this time is different.
I can’t believe they’re still trying Harris. Did they have “America’s Talent” to find the worst two candidates in the party?
Remdesivir if I remember, operates by halting cell division. That is, it halts virus cells from doubling while the body has time to kill them. So then it absolutely makes sense that halting cell division for more than a few days would be terrible: cells don’t live that long and the body always has a lot to do, especially dividing to create more white blood cells n stuff.
I’m concerned if the author doesn’t know this, as it’s remdesivir’s single function, but check me.
Vindicated? “Trump-Touted COVID-19 Drug Hydroxychloroquine Works, New Study Funds”
The surprising thing — and how we know it’s Armageddon and the world is ending – is that CNN reported this. …You know, after killing 500,000 people by trying to be your doctor.
Well the French surrendered without firing a shot. Irony may be dead, but jokes and stereotypes aren’t. My poor country. It’s not like the people aren’t tough. Sigh.
“3 waves” of 1918-1919 pandemic flu in the US. We are retracing them.”
Not if it’s made up (like the ‘76 vaccine), a co-factor attack which seems likely, and a 0.006% rate. The only thing that’s been attacked is our economy. Oh and Democracy. That.
“if Usian’s have even an inkling, of what’s coming?”
Coming? We have open street fighting in Seattle, among other places, and have for a month. Do Usians have a clue? Not even now. CNN (I think) just reported “Well, I guess we’ll have to wait for something to happen…” Wait? A city just tried to secede using armed forced, and the Feds are arresting Antifa steadily, as soon as the violent crimes are written up and warrants are served. “The revolution will not be televised.” Strangely, it’s completely televised, overblown by 100-fold in fact, but denied. Didn’t see that coming. No one notices. …But do remember the U.S. is very large. It contains multitudes. What they’re doing is a bee-sting to us, really. Don’t exaggerate only the blue areas are destroying themselves, don’t overreact.
