“Scamdemic”, indeed

How many times have you heard over the past several months that SARS-CoV-2, also known as “novel coronavirus” or “COVID-19”, is a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad, dreadful, awful, nasty, lethal bug that will kill us all?

More times than you care to count, I wager. But if you’re reading my work, you know that all of the hysterical bloviating and fear-mongering and horror porn from the never-to-be-sufficiencly-cursed whorenalists and presstitutes of the mainstream (((media))) are mostly false.

It doesn’t matter what you call this disease. You can use the formal medical names given above if you wish, though in my opinion that gives the whole thing a bit too much respectability, considering the scale of the disaster that we have inflicted upon ourselves. Since I have a rather irreverent and deeply cynical streak, I prefer to alternate between calling it the Kung Flu, General Tso’s Chicken Pox, the Chinese Mumps, the WuFlu, the Commie Pox, and the Chinkvirus – depending on which one I think will be most offensive to the sensitive and the Chinese Communist Party on any given day.

Whatever you choose to call it, after over a full year of this nonsense – because, remember, the Commiepox started spreading throughout the Commie Kingdom probably last October or November – the fact remains that almost everything that we’ve been told about it is a BIG FAT LIE.

We were told initially that the Infection Fatality Rate was 3-5%. That is to say, three to five percent of ALL those infected would D.I.E. Now, let’s be honest, that’s a terrifying number. I was in Singapore in 2003 when SARS hit – thanks, again, to the Chinese, or more specifically, their government – and I remember that this disease, with its genuinely nasty 10% IFR, basically destroyed the economy of the entire southeast Asian region for that whole year.

The truth, however, is that the actual IFR of the Chinese Mumps is more like 0.26%, and probably even as low as 0.138%:

Do we know how many people have been infected up to this point? If so, we can make a better guess at the likely IFR, and your risk of dying.

Dr Mike Ryan, the executive director of the World Health Organization’s health emergencies programme, recently stated the WHO has estimated that 750 million people have been infected worldwide

If this is the case, calculating the current, rather than the estimated, IFR is pretty straightforward. You simply divide the one million deaths [1,034,068, to be fully accurate], by 750m. 

1,034,068/750,000,000 = 0.138 percent.

So, an IFR of 0.138 percent. Which is significantly lower than the initially predicted one per cent. Or, to turn this figure around, according to the WHO figures, if you become infected with Covid-19, there is a one-in-750 chance you will die.

That is BEFORE we get to the fact that the much-ballyhooed 1% IFR that wormed its way into all of the various epidemiological and virological models, was a direct result of a colossally stupid arithmetic error:

Yes, we are testing and testing, and finding more so-called cases. As you will. But the hospitals and ICUs are virtually empty. Almost no one is dying of Covid anymore, and most of those who do were otherwise very ill.

Instead of celebrating that, we’ve artificially created a whole new thing to scare ourselves with. We now call a positive test a Covid “case.” This is not medicine. A “case” is someone who has symptoms. A case is not someone carrying tiny amounts of virus in their nose.

Now, however, you test positive, and you’re a “case.” Never in history has medical terminology been so badly mangled. Never have statistics been so badly mangled.

When researchers look back at this pandemic, they’ll have absolutely no idea who died because of Covid, or who died – coincidentally – with it. Everything’s been mashed together in a determined effort to make the virus look as deadly as possible.

Lockdown happened because we were told that Covid could kill one percent. But Covid was never going to kill more than about 0.1 percent – max.

That’s the figure estimated back in February, by the major players in viral epidemiology. A figure that has turned out to be remarkably accurate. Bright guys. The March 11 one-percent prediction? Not so much….

The original version of that article from Dr. Malcolm Kendrick claimed that the CDC made a huge mistake by confusing the CFR and the IFR of bog-standard regular influenza, and then multiplied the mixed-up number by 10 to get the IFR of the Kung Flu. Which means that the true fatality rate of the Commiepox was estimated at 100x too large. Subsequently, Dr. Kendrick withdrew that claim based on actual research (*GASP!!!!*) by real fact-checkers who said that it didn’t happen.

Maybe it did, maybe it didn’t. What we can say with a fairly high degree of certainty is that the CDC and WHO original estimates of 1% IFR were WILDLY off, because the CDC’s latest mortality figures indicate that if you catch the dreaded bug, and you’re under 60, you have a 99.5% chance or higher of surviving.

Those are damned good odds, and they are almost certainly extremely conservative.

Now let’s get to the subject of the lockdowns. Did they stop the spread of the virus, or stop people from dying like flies? Based on the data and the evidence… NO. They didn’t. In most countries, infection rates started declining BEFORE the lockdowns were imposed. PommieBastardLande locked down hard for two weeks a month ago – much to my shock, they didn’t extend the lockdown, but they’re still reacting very stupidly to the bug even so. Yet the data back in mid-November indicated that infection numbers were falling even before the Limeys locked down. And the data from the earlier lockdown this year shows that those lockdowns were imposed AFTER the infection rates started dropping.

The logic behind lockdowns was always idiotic. They were imposed without any real science behind them. The problem with lockdowns can be expressed in two straightforward syllogistic questions that end exactly the same way:

  1. If lockdowns are effective, and infection and death rates are successfully suppressed by lockdowns, then why do we need more than one lockdown?
  2. If lockdowns are ineffective, and infection and death rates are not successfully suppressed by lockdowns, then why do we need more than one lockdown?

Politicians are obviously extraordinarily risk-averse – media images of dead people, especially old dead people, do not do Good Things for a politican’s re-election prospects. And old people tend to be the ones who vote the most. So inevitably, politicians panicked in the face of the Kung Flu and locked everything down.

But that only explains the liberal democrat (Daemoncratic, really) Western nations, which are predisposed toward short-term stupidity and consequence-free wish-fulfilment modes of thought. China’s government is known for long-term strategic thinking and for not giving two shits about its people. Why do they continue to impose extreme lockdowns even though they keep telling the entire world that everything is fine, nothing to see here, move along?

Because they are using the crisis as an opportunity to impose even more strict controls on movement and thought than we ever suspected possible:

As if all of that wasn’t bad enough, the gold-standard RT-PCR tests that so many of us have had to take, turn out not to be quite so useful after all:

A publisher admitted it is urgently re-investigating research, following revelations that the PCR test it extols is defective, giving too many false-positives. The news comes as a new group plans a legal challenge over the checks.

Last week I reported on an astonishing review conducted by a group of senior scientists on a paper on which most Covid testing is based. It comprehensively debunked the science behind the Corman-Drosten paper, which described a protocol for using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique to detect Covid, finding 10 fatal flaws, including major failings in the operating procedure and potential conflicts of interest among its authors.

The team behind the review demanded that Eurosurveillance, the journal that published the original research, retract it at once, as in their view it clearly failed to meet proper standards. This is of vital importance because the Corman-Drosten paper laid the path for mass PCR testing as the main source of data on the coronavirus. Almost all case numbers, infection rates and even deaths attributed to Covid are based on PCR tests (and all the attendant lockdowns and restrictions on people), and a huge amount of them use the method set out in the Corman-Drosten paper.

Now we are getting news that UK frontline healthcare workers are suffering allergic reactions to the very hastily prepared Pfizer vaccine:

The UK’s medicines and healthcare regulator has urged people with a history of ‘significant’ allergic reactions not to opt for the Pfizer vaccine, after two NHS medics, vaccinated on Tuesday, experienced severe reactions.

Professor Stephen Powis, the national medical director for the NHS in England, said on Wednesday that the Medicines & Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) had issued a warning about the administering of Pfizer’s Covid-19 vaccine. 

Now let’s put that together with what the actual vaccines that Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Moderna, and others are coming up with. Those vaccines are using very questionable and untested techniques that previously never got out of the rodent testing stage – because in that stage, the mRNA vaccines ended up weakening and destroying those rodent immune systems. If you want to get a full breakdown of why these vaccines are a terrible idea, you can start by reading Mike Whitney’s take on the situation and progressing from there:

The new Covid vaccines will make billions of dollars for the big pharmaceutical companies, but here’s what they won’t do:
1) The vaccines will not cure Covid
2) The vaccines will not prevent people from contracting Covid
3) The vaccines will not prevent Covid-related hospitalizations
4) The vaccines will not prevent Covid-caused deaths

Now, I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking, “If the vaccine does not protect me from getting Covid (or dying from Covid), then why should I take it?”

And the answer is: “You shouldn’t. It makes no sense at all, especially in view of the fact that new vaccines pose considerable risks to one’s health and well-being.

“Risks,” you say? “No one said anything about risks. I thought this wonderful new Covid cure was entirely risk-free; just take the jab and– Presto– life goes back to normal.”

Wrong. There are risks, significant risks that the media and the medical establishment have papered-over with their ridiculous Happy Talk about “miracle” vaccines. But all of this is just public relations hype designed to hoodwink people into injecting themselves with a dubious substance that does NOT do what it’s supposed to do, and which DOES pose serious long-term risks to one’s health.

Do you begin to understand now the depths to which we have sunk?

Try to get your head around the number of freedoms that we have surrendered to governments around the world. Those governments have turned around and abused those powers far beyond their breaking points. They would have us believe that this bug is ONLY infectious after 10pm, and then only if you’re sitting in a restaurant or bar – but if you’re packed together in big crowds rioting and protesting and celebrating the sham electoral “victory” of a Fake President, then it’s not infectious at all. And they want you to believe that you shouldn’t have anyone over at your house for Thanksgiving or Christmas, and that you shouldn’t travel at all – while they themselves dine out without masks or social distancing in fancy French restaurants and travel to Mexico while you’re stuck alone at home.

They want you to believe that masks will keep this disease at bay, when the latest actual scientific information that we have on the subject shows fairly clearly that there is no real preventative benefit from wearing masks.

In other words… they want you to be deaf, dumb, and blind to reality. They want to break your will and your ability to survive without government assistance. And they want you to refuse to question their “humanitarian motives”, so that they can impose upon you any level of restriction that they can get away with.

After all, they aren’t the ones being affected. Their businesses aren’t being destroyed. Their savings aren’t being wiped out. And their hopes, dreams, and aspirations aren’t being crushed.

Here in the old country, government bureaucrats are sitting pretty and raking in the cash – while the gym that I attend is shutting down at the end of the year because other gyms in the franchise are hurting badly and they need to sell the floor space for my gym in order to pay off some other capital costs.

This isn’t going to end well. Either people will get tired of these insane restrictions and erupt in open rebellion – as is already happening in parts of the USA and even in some parts of the UK. (I’d more or less given up on the inhabitants of PommieBastardLande and considered them as little better than very gullible and pliant sheep, but evidently they still have some of that Blitz Spirit even today.) Or, more likely, they’ll carry on being stupid and sheeplike and refuse to take any serious action, and governments will eventually gain complete control over their lives, thoughts, habits, and actions.

Neither outcome is desirable or useful. The rebellious areas will move to full-scale war, while the compliant ones will see their lifestyles crater and their incomes collapse – because that’s what happens when governments take total control.

Meanwhile, Eastern Europe is still looking relatively free. Given what I’m seeing and hearing with the Pfizer vaccine, I would sooner trust a medic intent on sticking the Russian-made Sputnik V vaccine into my arm than I would anything made by the Western labs. The fact that the heavy hitters in the vaccine business, like GSK and Merck, have kept utterly silent on the issue of effective vaccinations, should really worry you. These are the guys who actually know WTF they’re doing in the field and are behind time-tested, proven, reliably engineered vaccine manufacturing technologies.

And they aren’t saying a word.

Johnson & Johnson, which isn’t a big player in the vaccine market, paused their vaccine trial using old-fashioned deactivated virus cells. AstraZeneca’s vaccine candidate has some serious questions surrounding its efficacy that have yet to be answered. And the Chinese, who gave us the WuFlu to begin with, are rolling out their own vaccines, which is… frankly terrifying.

This is one area where criticism of His Most Illustrious, Noble, August, Benevolent, and Legendary Celestial Majesty, the God-Emperor of Mankind, Donaldus Triumphus Magnus Astra, the First of His Name, the Lion of Midnight, the Chaddest of Chads, may the Lord bless him and preserve him, is actually completely legitimate.

You CANNOT bring a vaccine candidate for something as weird as the Chinese Mumps out in 8 months. It just doesn’t work like that. Vaccines typically take years to develop and usually aren’t anywhere near 90% effective. Some are, but even something as relatively benign and well-understood as influenza mutates over time, and that renders vaccines pretty ineffective fairly quickly.

Operation Warp Speed may well go down in history as one of the worst private-profit-public-risk experiments in human history. Time will tell. I can’t blame the God-Emperor for trying to keep people’s morale up and boost hope – that’s his job and he does it better than anyone else. But this insistence on developing a vaccine at all costs – at any cost, regardless of efficacy or safety – is genuinely foolish.

What is unambiguously clear at this stage is that most world leaders NOT named Trump or Putin are using this pandemic as an excuse to destroy your personal freedoms and your ability to live a normal life.

The question you have to ask yourself is: what are you going to do about it?

    “The question you have to ask yourself is: what are you going to do about it?”

    That is a good question. Th situation here in Israel is also quite mad. We have been to 3 election cycles in the last 2 years and there is another one coming.

    What can you do?
    One of my LTRs is somewhat into conspiracy theories (yes, the one I wrote about). So when she tells me the latest thing published there, I ask her: “What are they recommending?”. Guess what? They’re not recommending anything apart from waiting for the day it happens, and they’ll stand there feeling righteous and telling everyone: “WE TOLD YOU SO!”.

    This merits it’s own post. Promise to take the time and prepare one, with recommendations.

      Good stuff. I’ll look forward to that one.

    So GSK and Merck still haven’t released a vaccine? I guess they are waiting for Pfizer to crash hard and swoop in with better drugs.

    What worries me a lot lately, are the messages I get on my phone from the government saying, ‘Don’ t worry just wait for the vaccines’ to paraphrase. We don’t know how it will turn out and they get excited about bowing down to those corporate overlords. In my country we have a huge variety of herbs and fertile land to make healthy produce (meat is shit in Cyprus, except for free range chickens) so we can fight off disease and the government wants to waste all this money on vaccines.

    So GSK and Merck still haven’t released a vaccine? I guess they are waiting for Pfizer to crash hard and swoop in with better drugs.

    That’s EXTREMELY unlikely, for two reasons.

    First, a successful vaccine candidate using the tried-and-true methods of dead, inactive, attenuated, or conjugate virions can take up to 10 years to develop – not 8 months. The mRNA technique that Pfizer is using is untested, unproven technology that, as I wrote above, never got past the rodent trials stage because it proved to be bloody dangerous at that level.

    Second, NO vaccine has EVER been successfully developed for a coronavirus organism. A SARS vaccine was in development for a while but ran out of funding because the threat disappeared after a few years.

    The most likely explanation, in my view, is that GSK, Merck, and J&J have realised that the traditional method of developing an effective vaccine is more likely to fail than succeed. I believe J&J paused their clinical trials back in October after someone got sick with an “unexplained illness”.

    In my country we have a huge variety of herbs and fertile land to make healthy produce (meat is shit in Cyprus, except for free range chickens) so we can fight off disease and the government wants to waste all this money on vaccines.

    Yes. Given that you are most likely young and healthy, the best thing that you can do to protect yourself against this stupid scam is to eat fresh vegetables and meat, get plenty of fresh air and sunshine, exercise hard, and stay mentally alert and active. In other words – behave like a MAN. The rest is commentary.

    If you want a cheap way of guarding against the Commiepox, take some multivitamins with lots of Vitamin C, D, and Zinc. And you’ll be fine.

    Everything I’m seeing tells me that these Kung Flu vaccines are going to turn around and bite us in the arse, really hard, in a few years’ time.

    I have no doubt that the God Emperor will protect his people, and fully understands that they will use their own judgement in assessing the risks associated with the unproven vaccines. I suspect he will understand that their immunization rate will be very low.

    On the other hand, the Democratic supporters are likely to have a high immunization rate. Given what we currently know about the potential side effects of the vaccines, including reproductive effects (effectively sterilization), do you think it might be a play to reverse the demographic effects of immigration bu using the vaccines as a self administers bio weapon?

    I’m confident he would make sure that people will be given every opportunity to decline, will be properly advised of the dangers, and will not be forced to comply under Trump. It would be amusing to see thousands of Democrats lining up like lemmings about to jump into the abyss.

    Interested to hear your opinions.

      That’s possible. The God-Emperor has delayed giving his own staffers the vaccine, for now, which MAY indicate that he knows more than he is letting on about the whole issue.

      As a general rule, Trump seems to be quite happy to treat Americans like adults – though there have been some notable exceptions.

      Given what we currently know about the potential side effects of the vaccines, including reproductive effects (effectively sterilization), do you think it might be a play to reverse the demographic effects of immigration bu using the vaccines as a self administers bio weapon?

      I seriously doubt that the God-Emperor thinks along those lines. He is the Great Negotiator and a bit of a blowhard, not a cold-blooded psychopath. He also likes immigration in general, like any good civnat would. He is actually a good and decent person even to liberaltards – I don’t think he has the heart to do something that nasty.

      I’m confident he would make sure that people will be given every opportunity to decline, will be properly advised of the dangers, and will not be forced to comply under Trump. It would be amusing to see thousands of Democrats lining up like lemmings about to jump into the abyss.

      Yes, it would be grimly amusing. Left-liberalism has long been a self-defeating, self-annihilating mindset. With this latest vaccine and its as-yet unknown side-effects, we could see things going very squirrelly in a very big hurry.
