A look at the German efficacy data, which show temporary effectiveness against symptomatic infection and severe outcome, collapsing to the same baseline after a few months.
Here in the States (excuse me, we used to be States, but now are the centralized Federal America) we have chaos on the streets over abortion court rulings. We show our stupidity by protesting a court opinion that merely returns the issue to the 50 State governments for a local determination. The masses should be in the streets over Covid policy. But that might make sense and we are woefully short on the common variety. Pray, plan, prepare and RESIST.
exactly! all funded and bused to the locations just like the geo floyd riots bs trying to damage Trump, just like the jan 6th lies and dark govt created chaos. this is all gearing up to try to threaten conservatives before the november elections. everything satan does will backfire eventually. God will deliver
Definitely a part of the old Saul Alinsky Rules for Radicals Bible... what else ! Create (through a "leak"), a crisis, THEN USE the crisis you created to justify just about anything on your agenda. Best part, the "run of the mill" person on the street is SO DUMB, so uneducated via the public "schools", never ever catches on, so, you can just create one "crisis" after another and never have to fear anyone will see a "pattern", or believe what is happening ! They are getting us ready people, more on the way, crisis after "crisis", food shortage, baby formula shortage (do NOT attempt to MAKE a home formula... hummm, so did ALL the babies raised on home made milk, corn syrup, etc. "formula" during WWII DIE ? Sounded on the news today like they must have ! Media spitting out dire warnings about making formula at home, so, must not be anyone born during the war years who was fed home made formula who lived ? Maybe just a few who were were breast fed by a BIRTHING PERSON no doubt ?. Auto shortage, no electronics ( however, maybe electric autos available ?), next crisis...oh yes, gasoline, war in Ukraine, now fertilizer (trying to use human waste...the VERY reason so many US citizens pass on produce from some other countries, and so on ! Never ends. Now next... oh, yes, here we come, a stunning rise in serious hepatitis. Had to laugh today, former president (who at the time was not my favorite "statesman") spoke a day or two ago, saying when he was president we had a stable stock market, serious border control, plenty of gasoline and other energy supplies, reasonable food prices, low mortgages, building was booming, North Korea was quiet, no nuclear tests, etc. etc. and then said, "well, in other words, you were secure, and safe and, well, heck, all you had to do was go to the beach and ENJOY..." For a president I was not fond of, in retrospect.... he was right on target ! ! Oh, nearly forgot today's crisis: 100 BILLION (with a "B") of money we did NOT have, money which now causes ONLY the lower and middle classes pains, and it 100 Billion printed up, literally "sprinkled everywhere" to "fight Covid of course", and most went to scammers. Good decision making right ? DO NOT THINK, SEND the people money, drop it out of airplanes if necessary, call the mint, print 24/7, we'll worry about it later (liar liar, not going to EVER worry about anything you did), now, the poor, dumb, "masses" can just deal with it. 100 BILLION...gone, didn't help the homeless, the hungry, the struggling, didn't do one single thing to fight "Covid", just emptied out the treasury to benefit the scammers, the struggling woman with a beauty shop, or the couple with the ice cream shop.... nothing, out of business for good. Great job D.C., we love ya, and sure, we'll keep ya all right in the same job, for the next 30, 40, years ?
I think we are in deep trouble. D.C. has been D.C. for decades, but there was always a "balance", the heads of the major departments, the cabinet members, the leaders of both parties in both house and senate, were not total ideologues. Oh most certainly, they sounded like it, but they knew, and WE KNEW, there were always some knowledgeable people there to steer us clear of total disaster, but we are running on empty now completely, Yellen, treasure head and economist... seems on the surface (?) to have absolutely no understanding of economics... or, is just acting as is she does not understand ? Who knows, but this is happening in every department area, something is very wrong here, what is really going on. a "Mary Poppin's Tic-Tock singer" in charge of what the population should know as
truth and what should not be allowed to reach the public... really ? I do not understand, no matter what party you support, how people can support what is going on now.
You mean like BLM organization protestors ONLY.... no multi-million mansions ..... YET ! Give the organized abortion supporters time and they too will collect in the billions to buy mansions, possibly an island in the Bahama's, you know, the corporate things they need to have impressive birthday parties for their own children, adult parties on their private island, well, you know, things the elite NEED ! Those little essentials no elite can be without, a jet or two, 6 homes PLUS a mansion, an island..... you know. If you don't know, perhaps YOU are spending too much time in Walmart considering if you can afford to splurge this week on a whole roasted deli chicken !
Abortion has always been a useful tool of the left. Right now, it's being used as a diversion from the sorry state of our economy...the high food and fuel prices. I would suggest that the Supreme Court leak was done for exactly this reason, to create a hysterical distraction going into the election season. And the useful idiots are always ready to be distracted. The Dems are facing a real ass whooping in November, and they are currently clinging to the hope that the Roe v Wade issue will distract people from the real issues and go vote for the Roe warriors instead of bread and butter issues. If they get hysterical about Roe, they imagine that people will suddenly stop noticing how high their food bills are, their sky high electric and gas bills, their unaffordable gas costs. It's like people can only concentrate on one thing at a time, although I'd say that might be true for a lot of the lefties.
Roe v. Wade was the worst and most obvious example of legislation from the bench I can remember. There is simply no way to reasonably believe that the intent of the framers was to create or protect a right to abortion that did not exist at the time. Everyone, even the proponents of the decision, knows this was a "rabbit pulled from a hat" decision. There's no doubt at all that the justices of the court in 1973 sidestepped the Constitutionally-defined means of creating a Constitutional amendment (which is deliberately difficult to do) and simply created one themselves without any input from Congress or any of the states.
The idea that a simple majority in the Supreme Court (whose members are deliberately not accountable to the people of the US, as their only concern is supposed to be the actual text of the Constitution) can unilaterally create any Constitutional amendment they wish at any time should scare the bejeezus out of any American. No matter what your position on abortion, if you are American, you should celebrate the reversal of this example of legislation from the bench. If the Constitution means whatever a simple majority of political appointees say it does, completely unmoored from the actual text of the document, it means nothing at all.
Definitely..and when you look closely, they also seem to just be having a "good time", a party, almost like the "occupy Wall Street" stunt... a bunch of people acting more like they are at a music festival out in the desert or fields somewhere !
EXACTLY ! Look, look the war, look, look, at the gasoline pumps, look, look at the empty shelves, hear much about getting your BOOSTER lately ? NOT A PEEP about it here in Florida, nothing, crickets... Hummmm ?
Bingo... look here, look here, next crisis please, forget the vaccines don't work, forget inflation, look here, food crisis, I TOLD YOU SO (says Biden) in my unintelligible "speech" 3 WEEKS AGO, I told you things were going to get worse, remember ?"
I for one have no complaints if you choose to shift your emphasis to other matters. After two years of this, I'm heartily sick of discussing coronavirus all the time. That said, it's essential that we keep the pressure on these sadistic midwits, because if they're allowed to slink off without consequence after their crimes against the human species they will certainly be back for more in the near future.
I'm more concerned with what the authoritarians intend, than with SARS-2 "studies" as this point. The devastation of the economy and livelihoods, so far, is a self-inflicted destruction greater than 9/11--needs accountability and go no further.
and to... let's see, mental health, teen suicide, job loss, business closures that will never open again, the down grading of public school curriculum's to nothing but social and cultural issues, OUT with the "difficult" subjects; chemistry, economics, mathematics, biology, analysis, thinking skills, speaking skills, history, .......... and let's see, what else we can add to the list ? Maybe a life long distrust of our friends, our neighbors, our own family members ? Maybe animosity that will never fade completely ? Hey, what about firing up hate and anger and every negative emotion in racial relations ? They say divide and conquer, so get "white" supremacy center stage, come to think of it, perhaps "they" (the "elites") are correct, we ARE a very stupid people to fall for all this, and fall over, and over, and over ! Next ? Students, turn in your PARENTS, turn them in to the state/government schools... ah la Dr. Zhivago ? Hey, you know that "white guy" next door, better not trust him, better turn him in too, and hey, that family on the corner down there, they look a "little Asian" like to me, turn them in ! Oh people, we MUST stop being so gullible !
We need some CLEAR discussion on this site (and others as well) as to EXACTLY what this "Great Reset" "WEF" is all about, so many joke make a joke of it, I'm not so convinced it's a "joke" !
I watched these people in the 1960s. It seemed like that they had mostly gone away for several decades, but turns out they had not. Over the years they've been inserting themselves into universities and schools and working on their brainwashing in a more subtle way. So now they're baaaccccckkkkk.
Sure have ! I LEFT my university teaching position for exactly that reason, the insertion, SO SUBTLE, so slow and easy, and if you dared to "notice".... it was NOT good. You played emperor's new clothes all the time !
The leaving is part of the problem. Somehow sanity needs to return to the colleges. The graduates will, I think, will discover truth as they venture into life. The brain washing into failed policies will become apparent. They will, I hope, force the universities back.
I would love to hope, by nature I am a "glass half full" individual, but in this I am not hopeful. Most have no idea (though parents paying for this "brainwashing", when they thought their adult children were learning, not being indoctrinated, are beginning to "catch on". Changing a university's direction is nearly impossible, but a philosophical revolt by parents and the general population in any public school district WOULD work, and work quickly ! Though most states allow their public school's curriculum, hours, number of days of classes, etc. to be determined by strong teachers' "unions", given the will, the could change the public schools drastically. One simple and very effective change could be establish an open work (right to work) state. That is only a beginning, but that first step must be taken if things are ever to change. People need to stop and think, why would a public school teacher need the health and safety protection of a union like miners, meat processing workers, nuclear and explosives workers.... all those whose very lives are in danger daily ? Our schools, before unions, were exceptionally successful. Check out the TEST 8th graders passed before going on to high school ! Very very few college graduates could pass it; constitution of the USA, democratic republic and how it works, poets, writers, ancient Greek philosophers, world history, just look up the types of tests an 8th grade student had to pass in my mother's day (prior to WWII). Nearly every district in our entire state had MANDATORY high school attendance laws, the number of high school grads in the midst of the great depression was actually HIGHER than today, think of that, higher than 50% even when families (like my mother's) were literally living on what they could raise in the garden and can at home, and what my grandfather could hunt (deer, quail, rabbit, etc. etc.), anything it took for TWO GOALS, not die of starvation and make sure his two children (my mother being one) GRADUATE from high school ! WHO today, what parent, really cares enough to make sure their child(ren) finish 12 years ? Oh yes, of course, it is the parents of the ELITES who rule us ! That's right. Those parents do not allow high school drop outs ..... so what needs to change ? Priorities perhaps ? Get back to work or not, favorite TV program or not, parents attend every school board and building meeting ? Nothing comes before their RESPONSIBILITY and DUTY.... to RUN THEIR PUBLIC SCHOOLS. Alternatively, just leave it to whoever.... the school administrators, the superintendent, the principal, or the local union representative ? I mean THEY are the professionals, we parents don't know much about how to run a school ! ? What does it actually take to make it CLEAR what parents expect their schools to TEACH and how many hours a week they expect it to be taught ?
Do NOT take "your eyes off your fries" (old direct quote from Ronald McDonald, in this case a "health" emergency )... if you do, they KNOW you can't think or analyze, and we will all get more of the same, and bigger even than last time ! Count on it !
my belief is that we are in a lull before another big storm. Articles like this can help sway some people who might be in middle with their beliefs. We need more people to come to our understanding so that we become the dominate consciousness. I will be posting this to Facebook. We all must stay strong and never forget how we have been abused.
oh, I won't stop posting about Corona, it will probably always be a dominant focus of this blog – it will be with us in one form or another for decades. but, I want to get away from the daily grind of charts and graphs while I can, especially as they don't tell us very much right now.
My prediction is that there will be another "variant" that appears sometime in the US in September that will require lockdowns and mail in voting.
Also... it may very well be real. I suspect that all the boosting has ruined the immune system of the people who got a jab rather than saline, and now we can never reach herd immunity. Instead, it will be C0VID4Evah, as variants keep appearing and killing people, while Big Pharma/ Governments keep pushing the poison death jabs.
Please do. I'm getting a little annoyed with folk who say it's over and we should move on. The memory hole is a real thing. So much evidence of the malfeasance of our leaders over the last 50 years has been ignored while the crimes continued in the background because people don't keep hammering it and finding the evidence and solutions. It is more convienient to move on to the next make-believe crisis and that is what our rulers want us to do.
Never stop picking it apart, Eugy! Your analysis, your conversations and all the pickers, talkers, analysts, and rational thinkers are who will stop the "next" pandemic's hysterical response. Thanks!
Have you already covered Geert Vanden Bossche's dire warning? Something is happening in Massachusetts. They are reporting 68% of covid hospitalizations are in the fully vaccinated and their zero mention of stats for the unvaccinated clearly signals the rest had the initial 2 shots. At the same time I am hearing of people with significant lung involvement. This is odd or alarming as this sudden change comes just a week after Dr VB warning.
do you follow Walter Chestnut's substack? He has been investigating amyloidosis as a possible explanation for some side effects and long covid. We know the spike encodes for errant proteins.
he essentially says that the extended vaxx injuries will start showing up within a couple of months, not next year or years from now. How the multiple jabbs keep weakening the intricate workings of the natural immune system, leaving the multi-jabbed at risk for any invader that our untouched healthy immune systems beautifully eat and disarm daily. The jabbed immunity cannot recognize anything but the spike, it misses every other part of covid and other viruses. To the vaxx'd, I'd say do everything in your power to increase your health, ideal weight, diet, exercise, vit D status! Same advice to the partially vax'd and the unvax'd, so much incentive to do our part and take responsibility for our health and bodies or else you will be killed slowly by this 'death-sentence medical industry' that Obamacare has created in 12 short years.
There’s a bit more to it than that. He talks about increased virulence either through mutation of the n terminal domain, or through glycan coating of the virus. But it’s not clear to me what the evolutionary benefit to the virus of mutations that lead to increased transfection in the lower respiratory tract would be.
Yes I would like to see a review of his thesis (which I don’t really understand: where is this evolutionary pressure on the virus to mutate towards increased virulence come from? What is driving it?)
Yes, I would like to understand it better as well, - with due respect to Del and Dr. Bossche for their brilliant effort to try to simplify it for the average person.
Sister in law runs a nursing home. Every time there is dose given in the home the next day a few residents pass away. I mean they all pass away at home point but it's pushing some the the end too quickly.
I think we can’t get lost in the weeds with all the data with Corona,I have no complaints about you not covering the mountain of data that is going to be coming, the next few months ,that will only show how greatly the vaccine/lockdown campaign failed.I also believe you have a greater understanding of the zeitgeist of all this and hope you continue to add more because data simply won’t stop this from happening again,they  ignored everything and kept their plans in place until it was just do dangerous to proceed.
Interesting that yesterday in the USA ,it was Mother’s Day and absolutely no one in public health made any claims to “not visit mother because you will kill her with Covid “ ,this week Fauci was busy getting the  adulation the little psycho needs at a University of Michigan graduation (for 2020 grads who missed) and psycho Gates is selling his book while acting like he got nothing wrong and we only need to do harder and quicker next time.Right now in the USA ,we are doing what we should have in May of 2020 absolutely nothing,another wave came to quickly to push for boosters.In fact the District of Columbia (Washington D.C.) hasn’t reported cases in about 2 weeks and it appears they stopped on purpose.So like Trump stated (it will just disappear) as in no more case reports,no one cares because the effects of lockdowns and vaccines are hitting hard now.
I live in Cook County home of Chicago; the medical elites here have just raised the covid alert to medium: the second highest alert on the CDC scale. This level requires individuals to wear a mask if they "feel" "immunocompromised". There has definitely been a noticeable increase in mask wearing in the deep blue town I live in. The local medical authorities have also increased the number of counties being designated medium.
I have absolutely no doubt that as the election season heats up in the fall we will be elevated back to high: required masks indoors, also in schools .
They will milk the covid for the elections; I believe it is entirely possible they demand only mail-in voting.
They will never stop using this for their political advantage.
Not here at least.
People love their servitude too much to give it up.
Yes ,they probably didn’t do much with this wave because the focus is in the November elections and what if they have this crazy idea ,admit the vaccine has failed right before the election to scare up the population so they can do mail in voting,along with the biggest gaslighting campaign ever of blaming Trump for the vaccine,then claiming they weren’t forcing anyone to take it.
Anecdotally, many vaccinated people (and some boosted x 2) in my circle are ill right now with Corona-like symptoms (sinus infection, low grade fever, "flu"), though they say they are testing negative for Corona. It is unusual to have flu and sinus infections this time of year in the region I am located in. You mention the booster effect moving toward zero - I wonder about the shots resulting in negative effectiveness against cold/flu-like illness after a few months pass. I'm hearing there will be another Corona immunization campaign in the Fall in the northern hemisphere, at the same time as the annual flu campaign. (perhaps a combo shot?) Fear that a lot of people will fall ill regardless of ongoing boosters/annual shots if there is indeed negative effectiveness occurring.
hmmmm, three (boosted) people in my inner circle with a bad cold that they 'just cannot shake off'. One got somewhat better after well over a month, the other two have now been referred to specialists to rule out lung infections and god knows what else.
Jessica Rose did a podcast with Chris Masterjohn where they chatted about this phenomena and bounced around some theories why the jabbed would have negative tests with positive symptoms. Pretty sure that was in the second hour but the whole discussion gets into a lot of possible theories along with established realities in the data.
Thanks @PamelaDrew, listened to parts of this Masterjohn-Rose podcast which helpfully provides time stamps. Believe you are referring to the part at 2 hrs 12 min, which added some to my thinking.
Way outside my expertise or understanding to know more than where the best able among us have discussed the theories. Invest the three hours and see where the ideas Jess and Chris bounce around fit your theories to build on or bust it.
Yes, I follow Berenson and Malone as well. I have been hearing about "negative effectiveness" from them and elsewhere, but just surprised how many vaccinated family & friends of mine are saying they are sick right now.
"The reason we have ecstatically promoted booster campaigns, is plainly not because more injections will do anything about Omicron. It is rather because medical bureaucrats and politicians, having overpromoted the vaccines, can’t give up their faith in them. "
We also have a media culture that rewards narratives that defend centralized power and a pinch of profit incentives that liberally grease the wheels of the corp-gov-media machine.
"I’ve had a few back-channel complaints that I’m not covering the day-to-day Corona research and statistics as much as I used to."
For me this is a positive since a bazillion folks are now tracking statistics and digging into Pfizer FOIA and it's nice to have some focus on broader themes. Count me in the group who are thrilled to have you venture into lesser discussed areas. If Geert is correct and the variants generated by the leaky vaccines do become more deadly there will be plenty of opportunity for virus specific analysis ahead.
Wayback has over 6,700 captures for the site so the data is reasonably protected. My long suit is more the politics, propaganda and dirtbag activities.. my science is pretty basic.
Always good to check and see what is saved or not, the Substack authors are notoriously bad about archive copies so a dozen a day are an easy find for me. Get a toolbar button so you can check for saves or save with two clicks and best of all 404 Not Found will redirect to an archive capture IF someone saved it.
How confident are we of data that shows reduced symptomatic infections/hospitalisations post-vaccination are in fact due to vaccination and not other reasons… end of season, natural decline in number of infectious people?
The Israeli study says: We estimated the rate of confirmed infection and severe Covid-19 as a function of time starting at 8 days after receipt of a fourth dose (four-dose groups) as compared with that among persons who had received only three doses (three-dose group) and among persons who had received a fourth dose 3 to 7 days earlier (internal control group).
I assume the Robert Koch Institute paper referenced (like almost all the other studies) does something similar. Any short term benefit sure seems to be an artifact of cohort shifting - where adverse events and covid type II (covid symptoms from the vaccine) in the days immediately following vaccination are blamed on the (n - 1) shot cohort. (h/t el gato mala)
most people got booster doses by Nov/Dec, I think – the effect is probably washed out by the time you see the convergence here. but, yes, always helpful to keep in mind.
In that first graph the green line hits zero pretty hard and stays there. Normally we would expect it to approach zero as a hyperbolic curve, if that was the final outcome. To me, it looks as though they rounded up any negative efficacy (to hide it).
I for one am glad that you're writing about non-coof subjects. You clearly have an inquisitive and incisive mind and I would like to hear your views on other subjects, as I for one am sick of coof coof coof all the time. Even something like a movie review would be a welcome addition to the site. Or if that's too pedestrian, you can write about classical music or broader cultural matters, such as how German food is criminally underrated or how Scandinavians aren't fully human.
Yes. That the inoculable experimental gene therapy treatments were neither as effective nor as safe as promised has been obvious to anyone paying attention (for at least ten months).
Your last paragraph is the most important one. Don’t let them implement more draconian measures “as preparation” for Round 2. This is not accidental.
Thank you again- Germany is so important in the analysis. FYI, I think typo in the blue line/orange line section? Last one should be orange and not blue?

even the late RBG said Roe was incorrectly decided
Absolutely correct, no constitutional basis at all.
Well stated. Thanks.
The Roe V Wade protesters are mostly paid protesters.
Definitely..and when you look closely, they also seem to just be having a "good time", a party, almost like the "occupy Wall Street" stunt... a bunch of people acting more like they are at a music festival out in the desert or fields somewhere !
ever more distractions as the evidence of the deaths associated with the vaxxed become every day more apparent
EXACTLY ! Look, look the war, look, look, at the gasoline pumps, look, look at the empty shelves, hear much about getting your BOOSTER lately ? NOT A PEEP about it here in Florida, nothing, crickets... Hummmm ?
went to my local Wally World to stock up on tp today, and there were large areas of the store with no racks or shelves
Bingo... look here, look here, next crisis please, forget the vaccines don't work, forget inflation, look here, food crisis, I TOLD YOU SO (says Biden) in my unintelligible "speech" 3 WEEKS AGO, I told you things were going to get worse, remember ?"
You should be in the streets demanding why another $40 billion is being sent to Ukraine to be laundered or blown-up by the Russians.
Amazing how all this money is suddenly available when politicians really want it.
they want it for the MIC
I for one have no complaints if you choose to shift your emphasis to other matters. After two years of this, I'm heartily sick of discussing coronavirus all the time. That said, it's essential that we keep the pressure on these sadistic midwits, because if they're allowed to slink off without consequence after their crimes against the human species they will certainly be back for more in the near future.
I'm more concerned with what the authoritarians intend, than with SARS-2 "studies" as this point. The devastation of the economy and livelihoods, so far, is a self-inflicted destruction greater than 9/11--needs accountability and go no further.
and to... let's see, mental health, teen suicide, job loss, business closures that will never open again, the down grading of public school curriculum's to nothing but social and cultural issues, OUT with the "difficult" subjects; chemistry, economics, mathematics, biology, analysis, thinking skills, speaking skills, history, .......... and let's see, what else we can add to the list ? Maybe a life long distrust of our friends, our neighbors, our own family members ? Maybe animosity that will never fade completely ? Hey, what about firing up hate and anger and every negative emotion in racial relations ? They say divide and conquer, so get "white" supremacy center stage, come to think of it, perhaps "they" (the "elites") are correct, we ARE a very stupid people to fall for all this, and fall over, and over, and over ! Next ? Students, turn in your PARENTS, turn them in to the state/government schools... ah la Dr. Zhivago ? Hey, you know that "white guy" next door, better not trust him, better turn him in too, and hey, that family on the corner down there, they look a "little Asian" like to me, turn them in ! Oh people, we MUST stop being so gullible !
I agree John! I am enjoying the wide variety of topics Eugyppius covers. That’s why I decided to become a paid subscriber.
And eugyppius is still covering the same issue in a way, the totalitarian behavior whether in graphic styles or education.
There's the heart of it ALL.... "the totalitarian" haze over the whole world !
so true, the conspiracists among us think the plandemic arrived specifically to roll out the tyrannical WEF Great Reset
We need some CLEAR discussion on this site (and others as well) as to EXACTLY what this "Great Reset" "WEF" is all about, so many joke make a joke of it, I'm not so convinced it's a "joke" !
I watched these people in the 1960s. It seemed like that they had mostly gone away for several decades, but turns out they had not. Over the years they've been inserting themselves into universities and schools and working on their brainwashing in a more subtle way. So now they're baaaccccckkkkk.
Sure have ! I LEFT my university teaching position for exactly that reason, the insertion, SO SUBTLE, so slow and easy, and if you dared to "notice".... it was NOT good. You played emperor's new clothes all the time !
The leaving is part of the problem. Somehow sanity needs to return to the colleges. The graduates will, I think, will discover truth as they venture into life. The brain washing into failed policies will become apparent. They will, I hope, force the universities back.
I would love to hope, by nature I am a "glass half full" individual, but in this I am not hopeful. Most have no idea (though parents paying for this "brainwashing", when they thought their adult children were learning, not being indoctrinated, are beginning to "catch on". Changing a university's direction is nearly impossible, but a philosophical revolt by parents and the general population in any public school district WOULD work, and work quickly ! Though most states allow their public school's curriculum, hours, number of days of classes, etc. to be determined by strong teachers' "unions", given the will, the could change the public schools drastically. One simple and very effective change could be establish an open work (right to work) state. That is only a beginning, but that first step must be taken if things are ever to change. People need to stop and think, why would a public school teacher need the health and safety protection of a union like miners, meat processing workers, nuclear and explosives workers.... all those whose very lives are in danger daily ? Our schools, before unions, were exceptionally successful. Check out the TEST 8th graders passed before going on to high school ! Very very few college graduates could pass it; constitution of the USA, democratic republic and how it works, poets, writers, ancient Greek philosophers, world history, just look up the types of tests an 8th grade student had to pass in my mother's day (prior to WWII). Nearly every district in our entire state had MANDATORY high school attendance laws, the number of high school grads in the midst of the great depression was actually HIGHER than today, think of that, higher than 50% even when families (like my mother's) were literally living on what they could raise in the garden and can at home, and what my grandfather could hunt (deer, quail, rabbit, etc. etc.), anything it took for TWO GOALS, not die of starvation and make sure his two children (my mother being one) GRADUATE from high school ! WHO today, what parent, really cares enough to make sure their child(ren) finish 12 years ? Oh yes, of course, it is the parents of the ELITES who rule us ! That's right. Those parents do not allow high school drop outs ..... so what needs to change ? Priorities perhaps ? Get back to work or not, favorite TV program or not, parents attend every school board and building meeting ? Nothing comes before their RESPONSIBILITY and DUTY.... to RUN THEIR PUBLIC SCHOOLS. Alternatively, just leave it to whoever.... the school administrators, the superintendent, the principal, or the local union representative ? I mean THEY are the professionals, we parents don't know much about how to run a school ! ? What does it actually take to make it CLEAR what parents expect their schools to TEACH and how many hours a week they expect it to be taught ?
Do NOT take "your eyes off your fries" (old direct quote from Ronald McDonald, in this case a "health" emergency )... if you do, they KNOW you can't think or analyze, and we will all get more of the same, and bigger even than last time ! Count on it !
Good way to die John... ignore the enemy. Are you on their side?
Do you imagine the enemy's only active front is the scamdemic?
They have non stop wave after wave of shit coming down the pike.
If you had referenced this I would not have commented.
Btw, Warpspeed Trump , AKA well have the military deliver it, Aka as Take the vaccine trump..Trump... after it was well known as deathvax...
IS NOT OUR BUDDY
Btw , piss on Nuremberg trials...
I think hanging is to good for these bastards.
Nuremberg 1 was the warning...they ramped it up... human civilization must ramp it up to end this...

Second video says it’s private. Liked the warrior one!
my belief is that we are in a lull before another big storm. Articles like this can help sway some people who might be in middle with their beliefs. We need more people to come to our understanding so that we become the dominate consciousness. I will be posting this to Facebook. We all must stay strong and never forget how we have been abused.
oh, I won't stop posting about Corona, it will probably always be a dominant focus of this blog – it will be with us in one form or another for decades. but, I want to get away from the daily grind of charts and graphs while I can, especially as they don't tell us very much right now.
Or are purposely misleading
My prediction is that there will be another "variant" that appears sometime in the US in September that will require lockdowns and mail in voting.
Also... it may very well be real. I suspect that all the boosting has ruined the immune system of the people who got a jab rather than saline, and now we can never reach herd immunity. Instead, it will be C0VID4Evah, as variants keep appearing and killing people, while Big Pharma/ Governments keep pushing the poison death jabs.
And blamed on we unvax’d!
A small blessing, but I’ll take it!
I think it would be useful to draw corollaries between this Fauci Fiasco, and the one he created with AIDS
Please do. I'm getting a little annoyed with folk who say it's over and we should move on. The memory hole is a real thing. So much evidence of the malfeasance of our leaders over the last 50 years has been ignored while the crimes continued in the background because people don't keep hammering it and finding the evidence and solutions. It is more convienient to move on to the next make-believe crisis and that is what our rulers want us to do.
sorry for the edit. lost a sentence.
Never stop picking it apart, Eugy! Your analysis, your conversations and all the pickers, talkers, analysts, and rational thinkers are who will stop the "next" pandemic's hysterical response. Thanks!
Have you already covered Geert Vanden Bossche's dire warning? Something is happening in Massachusetts. They are reporting 68% of covid hospitalizations are in the fully vaccinated and their zero mention of stats for the unvaccinated clearly signals the rest had the initial 2 shots. At the same time I am hearing of people with significant lung involvement. This is odd or alarming as this sudden change comes just a week after Dr VB warning.
do you follow Walter Chestnut's substack? He has been investigating amyloidosis as a possible explanation for some side effects and long covid. We know the spike encodes for errant proteins.
No thanks for the heads up! I read one journal article on that- I think posted by DoorlessCarp. I will check out Walter Chestnut.
Geert Vanden Bossche thinks the worst is still to come: https://thehighwire.com/watch/
he essentially says that the extended vaxx injuries will start showing up within a couple of months, not next year or years from now. How the multiple jabbs keep weakening the intricate workings of the natural immune system, leaving the multi-jabbed at risk for any invader that our untouched healthy immune systems beautifully eat and disarm daily. The jabbed immunity cannot recognize anything but the spike, it misses every other part of covid and other viruses. To the vaxx'd, I'd say do everything in your power to increase your health, ideal weight, diet, exercise, vit D status! Same advice to the partially vax'd and the unvax'd, so much incentive to do our part and take responsibility for our health and bodies or else you will be killed slowly by this 'death-sentence medical industry' that Obamacare has created in 12 short years.
There’s a bit more to it than that. He talks about increased virulence either through mutation of the n terminal domain, or through glycan coating of the virus. But it’s not clear to me what the evolutionary benefit to the virus of mutations that lead to increased transfection in the lower respiratory tract would be.
I don't think all the mutations we have seen were natural
nope, they were straight from the 2nd and 3rd and 4th jabs and all of the shedding
Yes I would like to see a review of his thesis (which I don’t really understand: where is this evolutionary pressure on the virus to mutate towards increased virulence come from? What is driving it?)
Yes, I would like to understand it better as well, - with due respect to Del and Dr. Bossche for their brilliant effort to try to simplify it for the average person.
“Intelligent Design”
wow, i just made the same comment before i saw this! in future i must scroll down and read all earlier comments 'afore i make my own!
Sister in law runs a nursing home. Every time there is dose given in the home the next day a few residents pass away. I mean they all pass away at home point but it's pushing some the the end too quickly.
When nursing home residents pass away, the government saves money on Medicaid payments.
I think we can’t get lost in the weeds with all the data with Corona,I have no complaints about you not covering the mountain of data that is going to be coming, the next few months ,that will only show how greatly the vaccine/lockdown campaign failed.I also believe you have a greater understanding of the zeitgeist of all this and hope you continue to add more because data simply won’t stop this from happening again,they  ignored everything and kept their plans in place until it was just do dangerous to proceed.
Interesting that yesterday in the USA ,it was Mother’s Day and absolutely no one in public health made any claims to “not visit mother because you will kill her with Covid “ ,this week Fauci was busy getting the  adulation the little psycho needs at a University of Michigan graduation (for 2020 grads who missed) and psycho Gates is selling his book while acting like he got nothing wrong and we only need to do harder and quicker next time.Right now in the USA ,we are doing what we should have in May of 2020 absolutely nothing,another wave came to quickly to push for boosters.In fact the District of Columbia (Washington D.C.) hasn’t reported cases in about 2 weeks and it appears they stopped on purpose.So like Trump stated (it will just disappear) as in no more case reports,no one cares because the effects of lockdowns and vaccines are hitting hard now.
I live in Cook County home of Chicago; the medical elites here have just raised the covid alert to medium: the second highest alert on the CDC scale. This level requires individuals to wear a mask if they "feel" "immunocompromised". There has definitely been a noticeable increase in mask wearing in the deep blue town I live in. The local medical authorities have also increased the number of counties being designated medium.
I have absolutely no doubt that as the election season heats up in the fall we will be elevated back to high: required masks indoors, also in schools .
They will milk the covid for the elections; I believe it is entirely possible they demand only mail-in voting.
They will never stop using this for their political advantage.
Not here at least.
People love their servitude too much to give it up.
Yes ,they probably didn’t do much with this wave because the focus is in the November elections and what if they have this crazy idea ,admit the vaccine has failed right before the election to scare up the population so they can do mail in voting,along with the biggest gaslighting campaign ever of blaming Trump for the vaccine,then claiming they weren’t forcing anyone to take it.
they are supposed to be cooking up an Omicron/flu vax for the fall
no doubt. More scare garbage.
Well LA told folks to test before gathering on Mother’s Day. 🙄
Anecdotally, many vaccinated people (and some boosted x 2) in my circle are ill right now with Corona-like symptoms (sinus infection, low grade fever, "flu"), though they say they are testing negative for Corona. It is unusual to have flu and sinus infections this time of year in the region I am located in. You mention the booster effect moving toward zero - I wonder about the shots resulting in negative effectiveness against cold/flu-like illness after a few months pass. I'm hearing there will be another Corona immunization campaign in the Fall in the northern hemisphere, at the same time as the annual flu campaign. (perhaps a combo shot?) Fear that a lot of people will fall ill regardless of ongoing boosters/annual shots if there is indeed negative effectiveness occurring.
hmmmm, three (boosted) people in my inner circle with a bad cold that they 'just cannot shake off'. One got somewhat better after well over a month, the other two have now been referred to specialists to rule out lung infections and god knows what else.
Wonder if they have already ruled out a compromised immune system?
Jessica Rose did a podcast with Chris Masterjohn where they chatted about this phenomena and bounced around some theories why the jabbed would have negative tests with positive symptoms. Pretty sure that was in the second hour but the whole discussion gets into a lot of possible theories along with established realities in the data.
https://chrismasterjohnphd.com/covid-19/2021/12/27/jessica-rose-adverse-events-reporting-and-much-more
Thanks @PamelaDrew, listened to parts of this Masterjohn-Rose podcast which helpfully provides time stamps. Believe you are referring to the part at 2 hrs 12 min, which added some to my thinking.
Way outside my expertise or understanding to know more than where the best able among us have discussed the theories. Invest the three hours and see where the ideas Jess and Chris bounce around fit your theories to build on or bust it.
Many knowledgeable people have been tracking and discussing this, including Berenson, Malone, Vanden Bossche, and others.
Yes, I follow Berenson and Malone as well. I have been hearing about "negative effectiveness" from them and elsewhere, but just surprised how many vaccinated family & friends of mine are saying they are sick right now.
"The reason we have ecstatically promoted booster campaigns, is plainly not because more injections will do anything about Omicron. It is rather because medical bureaucrats and politicians, having overpromoted the vaccines, can’t give up their faith in them. "
We also have a media culture that rewards narratives that defend centralized power and a pinch of profit incentives that liberally grease the wheels of the corp-gov-media machine.
"I’ve had a few back-channel complaints that I’m not covering the day-to-day Corona research and statistics as much as I used to."
For me this is a positive since a bazillion folks are now tracking statistics and digging into Pfizer FOIA and it's nice to have some focus on broader themes. Count me in the group who are thrilled to have you venture into lesser discussed areas. If Geert is correct and the variants generated by the leaky vaccines do become more deadly there will be plenty of opportunity for virus specific analysis ahead.
Wayback has over 6,700 captures for the site so the data is reasonably protected. My long suit is more the politics, propaganda and dirtbag activities.. my science is pretty basic.

Thank you very much!
Yes. Boosters are nothing more than a dangerous elephant fence.
How confident are we of data that shows reduced symptomatic infections/hospitalisations post-vaccination are in fact due to vaccination and not other reasons… end of season, natural decline in number of infectious people?
The Israeli study says: We estimated the rate of confirmed infection and severe Covid-19 as a function of time starting at 8 days after receipt of a fourth dose (four-dose groups) as compared with that among persons who had received only three doses (three-dose group) and among persons who had received a fourth dose 3 to 7 days earlier (internal control group).
I assume the Robert Koch Institute paper referenced (like almost all the other studies) does something similar. Any short term benefit sure seems to be an artifact of cohort shifting - where adverse events and covid type II (covid symptoms from the vaccine) in the days immediately following vaccination are blamed on the (n - 1) shot cohort. (h/t el gato mala)
most people got booster doses by Nov/Dec, I think – the effect is probably washed out by the time you see the convergence here. but, yes, always helpful to keep in mind.
Key word: estimated.
Thank God for Omicron. The off-ramp for stupid policy if it is only used.
In that first graph the green line hits zero pretty hard and stays there. Normally we would expect it to approach zero as a hyperbolic curve, if that was the final outcome. To me, it looks as though they rounded up any negative efficacy (to hide it).
seems plausible, especially when you remember how few 5-11 year-olds would have been vaccinated in those early days, just after authorisation
"the orange line is 60+ year-olds with two doses; and the dotted orange line is 18–59 year-olds with three doses."
I believe this may be a typo in the description for the third graph.
yes, thanks, finally fixed.
I for one am glad that you're writing about non-coof subjects. You clearly have an inquisitive and incisive mind and I would like to hear your views on other subjects, as I for one am sick of coof coof coof all the time. Even something like a movie review would be a welcome addition to the site. Or if that's too pedestrian, you can write about classical music or broader cultural matters, such as how German food is criminally underrated or how Scandinavians aren't fully human.
Yes. That the inoculable experimental gene therapy treatments were neither as effective nor as safe as promised has been obvious to anyone paying attention (for at least ten months).
Your last paragraph is the most important one. Don’t let them implement more draconian measures “as preparation” for Round 2. This is not accidental.
Thank you again- Germany is so important in the analysis. FYI, I think typo in the blue line/orange line section? Last one should be orange and not blue?
thanks, fixed.
