You nailed it.

And that's funny, because right this moment I'm forcing my 5 year old daughter to watch the original Ghostbusters with me after we watched Afterlife last night. Because I said the original is better. So far she doesn't agree with me.

We had the same disagreement about Willy Wonka. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This is great. It seems to me that Ben Shapiro has become a bit more savage these days and I love it.

Consider, if Ole Slo Joe wants to really 'pivot' in some substantial way, as Shapiro alludes in the video, he'd have to withdraw the mandates. Then he'd have to explain why thousands of people got canned from work over the past few months for nothing. Nah, Biden is locked in a box with no way out. Any direction he heads results in failure....kinda like his entire political career. And the more he flounders, the worse the economy will get. It's all a house of cards, and the wind is really starting to kick up.

What Shapiro doesn’t mention is the money angle of all this. These FRAUDS either don’t want to or just cannot stop the money train at this point. They have gotten filthy rich from promoting illogical fear over what has increasingly been proven by actual medical professionals around the world to be not only as severe as they have lied about it being, but the ineffectiveness of ALL “vaccine” mitigation for anyone but the elderly or those with multiple health issues. For profit one way or another. At our expense as a nation.

And then there’s the untold number of deaths and severe reactions to the vaccines themselves. And continuing talk of poisoning our children with this garbage they call “vaccines”. I truly want all the liars held accountable for continuing to push the “vaccine” lies. For intentionally ignoring the truth about natural immunity and vilifying those of us that follow the actual science of said natural immunity as reckless tin foil hat wearing extremists. For their part in driving families (or even friends and acquaintances) apart with their LIES just because they subscribe to different political parties.

I truly want to see their house of cards collapse and those responsible for weakening this country held accountable. I’d also love to see all of the assholes in this country that attacked normal Americans for wanting this lie to end eat a country mile of shit. I hope the morons on the left are capable of readjusting to reality and also getting on with their lives without continuing to subscribe to the LIE they’ve been brainwashed into gulping down that this is a “pandemic of the unvaccinated”. The facts prove otherwise- this couldn’t be more clear when there is almost no protection from getting Covid after “vaccination”. End the stupidity of “if I hadn’t been ‘vaccinated’ I might have been hospitalized or worse” when they got the illness the bullshit “vaccine” was supposed to protect them from.

Lastly, I want the Chinese government, traitors to humanity, held accountable for their part in this. I want our so called leaders and their lying lackeys like Fauci stripped of office and power. I want companies like Pfizer, Moderna, and J&J held liable for pushing their dangerous snake oils for profit and profit alone while ending testing and hiding known adverse effects. This last hope is unlikely to come to pass without the citizens of this nation banding together and demanding it, and there are a lot of mentally ill or brainwashed people out there if the numbers of drivers and folks walking around outside while wearing masks is any indicator.

Follow the money and see who is profiting from these vaccine sales. "Joe Biden, who was working for the University of Pennsylvania when the deal was made, received more than $900,000 from the University of Pennsylvania in the two years before he ran for president in this past election."


University That Funds Biden's Think Tank And Hosts FactCheck.Org Has Contract With BioNTech, Gets Paid For Vaccine Sales And FDA Approvals

https://nationalfile.com/unive...sales-fda-approvals/

Documents obtained by NATIONAL FILE show that the University of Pennsylvania, which hosts and funds Joe Biden’s think tank called the Penn Biden Center, directly profits from the sale of Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna Coronavirus vaccines. The University gets more money if more vaccines are sold. The University of Pennsylvania also gets “milestone payments” when the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approves a Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine. The university’s Board of Trustees receives the money directly, and the university is protected from any civil liability stemming from BioNTech’s products.

BioNTech signed a licensing agreement in 2018 with the University of Pennsylvania, which directly funds the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement. Even though Coronavirus had not yet broken out when the deal was made, the 2018 agreement ensured massive payments for the University of Pennsylvania if its technology ended up getting used in new mRNA-based vaccines. Well, UPenn’s technology did end up getting used in the mRNA-based Coronavirus vaccine produced by Pfizer and BioNTech, and the deal has led to massive revenue for the university. Joe Biden, who was working for the University of Pennsylvania when the deal was made, received more than $900,000 from the University of Pennsylvania in the two years before he ran for president in this past election.

The University of Pennsylvania also houses the pro-vaccine website FactCheck.org. University of Pennsylvania president Amy Gutmann is now Biden’s nominee for Ambassador to Germany. The Biden administration’s FDA has speedily approved or authorized Pfizer-BioNTech vaccines including for children — all while the Penn Biden Center’s parent university enjoys massive profits from vaccine sales and FDA approval. And the Pfizer-connected FDA even knew about numerous adverse events for children related to the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, but allowed children to be injected with it anyway. Now, as the FDA considers emergency use authorization for a Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine for children as young as six months old, the direct financial relationship between these vaccines and Joe Biden’s think tank must be exposed.

University of Pennsylvania Profits From Pfizer-BioNTech And Moderna Vaccines
NATIONAL FILE’s source explained to us that “UPenn earns massive payments (actual terms confidential, likely in the billions)” from Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna vaccines.

The University of Pennsylvania admitted in December 2020 that “The Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna COVID-19 mRNA vaccines both use licensed University of Pennsylvania technology. As a result of these licensing relationships, Penn, Dr. Weissman and Dr. Kariko have received and may continue to receive significant financial benefits in the future based on the sale of these products. BioNTech provides funding for Dr. Weissman’s research into the development of additional infectious disease vaccines.” It turns out that Dr. Katalin Kariko is both an adjunct professor at UPenn’s Perelman School of Medicine and also a BioNTech vice president.

On November 5, 2018, BioNTech stated: “BioNTech AG, a rapidly growing biotechnology company focused on the development of immunotherapies for the precise and individualized treatment of cancer and prevention of infectious diseases and the University of Pennsylvania (Penn), Philadelphia, USA, today announced that they have entered into a strategic research collaboration. The goal of the exclusive, multi-year partnership is to develop novel nucleoside-modified mRNA vaccine candidates for the prevention and treatment of various infectious diseases. Under the terms of the agreement, BioNTech and the lab of Drew Weissman, MD, PhD, at Penn will exchange their in-depth knowledge and experience in mRNA research and development to advance the discovery of novel vaccine candidates. Penn will be responsible for a dedicated preclinical research program from discovery through to the completion of IND-enabling studies in up to ten infectious disease indications. BioNTech will be eligible to receive an exclusive worldwide license to further develop and commercialize product candidates arising from the research collaboration. If proprietary Penn technology is part of a new mRNA-based vaccine, the university will be eligible to receive additional milestone payments and royalties from BioNTech. Detailed financial terms were not disclosed.”

Drew Weissmann’s work led directly to the Coronavirus vaccines including the Pfizer/BioNTech injection. In December 2020, Penn Medicine stated: “The scientific team whose 2005 messenger RNA biology discovery at the University of Pennsylvania helped pave the way for the COVID-19 vaccines from Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna received their first dose of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine together on Friday, Dec. 18 at Penn, more than 20 years after they began their basic science collaboration. Drew Weissman, MD, PhD, a professor of Infectious Diseases in Penn’s Perelman School of Medicine, and Katalin Karikó, PhD, an adjunct associate professor at Penn and a senior vice president at BioNTech, together discovered that exchanging one of the four building blocks of messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) molecules could greatly increase its therapeutic potential. They shared their perspectives as longtime researchers in the field who are comfortable taking the vaccines themselves, and called on the public to trust the decades of scientific research that has led to these important vaccines now being deployed in the global fight against the virus, encouraging others to get vaccinated when it becomes available to them.”

HERE IS THE SEC LICENSING AGREEMENT BETWEEN BIONTECH AND THE UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA DATED OCTOBER 9, 2018: The agreement states that “All payments to Penn hereunder shall be made by deposit of USD in the requisite amount to the “The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania…”

Document at link

According to the SEC Licensing Agreement, BioNTech pays the University of Pennsylvania with “milestone payments” for each vaccine approval application that gets approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or another regulatory agency, up to the first three approvals.

Look at these “Development Milestones” that the University of Pennsylvania gets paid for, and keep in mind that the term “BLA,” according to this agreement, is defined as “an application submitted to a Regulatory Authority for marketing approval of a product, including (a) a Biologics License Application or New Drug Application submitted to the FDA, (b) a Marketing Authorization Application (“MAA”) in the European Union, (c) any equivalent or comparable application, registration or certification in any other country or region, or (d) any successor applications or procedures, supplements or amendments that may be submitted with respect to the foregoing.”

The BLA process appears to be very lucrative for the University of Pennsylvania. For example, when the FDA approved the Pfizer-BioNTech “COMIRNATY” Coronavirus vaccine in August 2021, the FDA granted “BLA APPROVAL” to the injection.



BioNTech pays the University of Pennsylvania “Commercial Milestone Payments” corresponding to worldwide vaccine sales, meaning that the University of Pennsylvania makes more money if Pfizer-BioNTech sells more vaccines:



The University of Pennsylvania scored civil legal immunity for itself in its deal with BioNTech, including from any cases of “bodily injury” or “death” that might be associated with the vaccine. According to the SEC Licensing Agreement: “Licensee shall defend, indemnify and hold Penn and its respective trustees, officers, faculty, students, employees, contractors and agents (the “Penn Indemnitees”) harmless from and against any and all liability, damage, loss, cost or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), including, without limitation, bodily injury, risk of bodily injury, death and property damage to the extent arising out of Third Party claims or suits related to: the gross negligence, recklessness or wrongful intentional acts or omissions of Licensee, its Affiliates or Sublicensees and its or their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, in connection with Licensee’s performance of its obligations or exercise of its rights under this Agreement…any violation of Law by Licensee or its Affiliates or Sublicensees…”



In 2017, University of Pennsylvania president Amy Gutmann announced the launch of the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement, with Joe Biden taking over as the head of the Penn Biden Center and also assuming a role as a professor at the University of Pennsylvania. The University of Pennsylvania stated that “The Center will be located in Washington, D.C. Biden will also have an office on the Penn campus in Philadelphia…The Penn Biden Center promises significant impact for both Penn’s teaching and research missions. As Presidential Practice Professor, Biden will hold joint appointments in the Annenberg School for Communication and the School of Arts and Sciences, with a secondary affiliation in the Wharton School.”

Joe Biden made more than $900,000 from the University of Pennsylvania between 2017 and 2019 for very little work. Biden confirmed his leave of absence from the University of Pennsylvania in April 2019 when he kicked off his presidential campaign. The liberal American Prospect reported that “The center basically functioned as a foreign-policy think tank for Biden’s inner circle. It gave Penn a foothold in Washington…”

University of Pennsylvania professor and vice provost of global initiatives Zeke Emanuel, a key architect of Obamacare when he served in the Obama administration, publicly welcomed Biden to UPenn. Tony Blinken, who now serves as Joe Biden’s Secretary of State, was the Penn Biden Center’s managing director before he ran the Biden State Department. The Penn Biden Center’s current leadership team includes Obama administration alum Caroline Tess, and its business manager is a longtime employee of the University of Pennsylvania. Recent Penn Biden Center officials Ariana Berengaut and Colin Kahl, who pushed pro-vaccine propaganda in the early period of the Coronavirus pandemic, have both worked for either Joe Biden or for the Obama-Biden administration and Kahl is now Biden’s Under Secretary of Defense for Policy. Michael Carpenter, the recent Penn Biden Center managing director who pushes hawkish talking points against Russia, is now working as an ambassador in the Biden administration.

According to Politico: “The Penn Biden Center does not fundraise. The University of Pennsylvania uses general funds to operate the center and has no plans to solicit money for it in the future, according to a university spokesperson.”

Document at link.

When the Penn Biden Center opened in February 2018, Joe Biden was at the launch ceremony in Washington, D.C. with University of Pennsylvania president Amy Gutmann. The Penn Biden Center brags that “The Penn Biden Center officially opened our doors on February 8, 2018, with an event featuring the President of the University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Amy Gutmann, and a discussion on global affairs between Joe Biden and distinguished journalist and Penn alumna, Andrea Mitchell. The center welcomed guests from Penn and across the worlds of government and foreign policy, including former Secretary of State John Kerry, former National Security Advisor Susan Rice, Attorneys General Eric Holder and Loretta Lynch, and current and former members of the U.S. Congress.”

NATIONAL FILE’s source told us: “Even in FactCheck.Org’s seemingly extensive “A Guide to Pfizer-BioNTech’s COVID-19 Vaccine,” they omit info about their host university’s contributions to mRNA and payments from BioNTech specifically. There is no mention at all of UPenn’s mRNA licensing agreements.”

FactCheck.org, which claims to be “nonpartisan,” states the following on its website: “FactCheck.org is a project of the Annenberg Public Policy Center of the University of Pennsylvania. The APPC was established by publisher and philanthropist Walter Annenberg to create a community of scholars within the University of Pennsylvania that would address public policy issues at the local, state and federal levels.”

The Annenberg Public Policy Center, which owns FactCheck.org, is based on the University of Pennsylvania campus in Philadelphia and also in Washington, D.C. and is funded with an endowment from the Annenberg Foundation, which partners with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. The Annenberg Foundation is FactCheck.org’s top funder according to its most recent financial disclosure. FactCheck.org also takes funding from Facebook and Google and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation but claims that its donors “have no control over our editorial decisions.”

FactCheck.org has an extremely close working relationship with its host university. FactCheck.org states that “FactCheck.org receives in-kind support from the Annenberg Public Policy Center including some infrastructure costs as well as supervisory, technical, and administrative support from APPC faculty and staff. We do not attempt to assign a dollar value to these in-kind services, which are funded from the APPC’s own resources.” Kathleen Hall Jamieson, the director of the Annenberg Public Policy Center and the co-founder of FactCheck.org, is a University of Pennsylvania professor. FactCheck.org’s director emeritus Brooks Jackson gave birth to FactCheck.org shortly after joining the Annenberg Public Policy Center. FactCheck.org also states that “Credit card donations may be made through our “Donate” page, which is managed on our behalf by the University of Pennsylvania.” The University of Pennsylvania runs a donation fund for FactCheck.org.

“We Failed” – Danish Newspaper Admits Failure and Apologizes for Not Questioning the Government’s COVID-19 Narrative (VIDEO)



https://www.thegatewaypundit.c...-19-narrative-video/



One of the leading newspapers in Denmark issued a public apology for spreading the government’s lies about COVID-19 and narratives without sufficient skepticism throughout the pandemic.

Ekstra Bladet published an article last month with the title “Vi fejlede,” which means “We failed.”



Ekstra Bladet is a Danish tabloid newspaper, published by JP/Politikens Hus in Copenhagen and was founded in 1904.

“THE CONSTANT mental alertness has worn out tremendously on all of us. That is why we – the press – must also take stock of our own efforts. And we have failed,” Ekstra Bladet journalist Brian Weichardt wrote.



Ekstra Bladet wrote [translated]:

For ALMOST two years, we – the press and the population – have been almost hypnotically preoccupied with the authorities’ daily coronatal.



WE HAVE STARED at the oscillations of the number pendulum when it came to infected, hospitalized and died with corona. And we have been given the significance of the pendulum’s smallest movements laid out by experts, politicians and authorities, who have constantly warned us about the dormant corona monster under our beds. A monster just waiting for us to fall asleep so it can strike in the gloom and darkness of the night.

THE CONSTANT mental alertness has worn out tremendously on all of us. That is why we – the press – must also take stock of our own efforts. And we have failed.

WE HAVE NOT been vigilant enough at the garden gate when the authorities were required to answer what it actually meant that people are hospitalized with corona and not because of corona. Because it makes a difference. A big difference. Exactly, the official hospitalization numbers have been shown to be 27 percent higher than the actual figure for how many there are in the hospital, simply because they have corona. We only know that now.

OF COURSE , it is first and foremost the authorities who are responsible for informing the population correctly, accurately and honestly. The numbers for how many are sick and died of corona should, for obvious reasons, have been published long ago, so we got the clearest picture of the monster under the bed.



IN ALL , the messages of the authorities and politicians to the people in this historic crisis leave much to be desired. And therefore they lie as they have ridden when parts of the population lose confidence in them.


ANOTHER example: The vaccines are consistently referred to as our ‘superweapon’. And our hospitals are called ‘superhospitals’. Nevertheless, these super-hospitals are apparently maximally pressured, even though almost the entire population is armed with a super-weapon. Even children have been vaccinated on a huge scale, which has not been done in our neighboring countries.


IN OTHER WORDS, there is something here that does not deserve the term ‘super’. Whether it’s the vaccines, the hospitals, or a mixture of it all, is every man’s bid. But at least the authorities’ communication to the population in no way deserves the term ‘super’. On the contrary.
Neil Oliver, a Scottish television presenter, reacted to the Danish newspaper’s apology for COVID-19 coverage throughout the first two years of the pandemic.


“I suspect that what’s happening is that it’s simply that newspaper, that organization has realized that the jig is up. You know they’ve been caught out,” Neil said during the interview with GB News.



“They’re now trying to explain themselves and get themselves out of the hole that they’re in. I presume that the media organizations, mainstream media in the UK and elsewhere would try the same tactic but again I say I think it’s too late,” he added.

Over 200 million people in the U.S. already got the shot. If they had required adequate safety studies before the roll out this would have been known. What else will come out later?


CDC Signals Changes to COVID-19 Vaccine Schedule, in Part to Address Heart Inflammation

https://www.theepochtimes.com/...1ueE9jkEBvrpIPig151t

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on Feb. 4 outlined an expected change to the COVID-19 vaccine schedule for people with weak immune systems and signaled that a different alteration is coming for the general population to try to cut the number of post-vaccination heart inflammation cases.

The CDC told its vaccine advisory panel that it is planning to adjust guidance for people with compromised immune systems, a group that doesn’t respond as well to vaccines as the general population and is the only population that is advised to get four shots of the Moderna or Pfizer jabs, or the messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines.

Current CDC guidance for the immunocompromised says they should receive three doses of an mRNA vaccine within two months, and get a fourth dose at least five months after the third dose.

The revised schedule would recommend the population get that fourth shot as soon as three months after their third one.

For recipients in the population who received the single-shot Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine, the updated guidance says they should get a second dose at least 28 days after their vaccination, and a third dose as soon as two months later.

The guidance update applies to people 18 and older who received the Johnson & Johnson or Moderna vaccines, and people 12 and up who received the Pfizer jab.

The rationale for the adjustment includes small studies that indicate the immunocompromised are better protected if they get the fourth shot sooner, Elisha Hall, a health education specialist at the CDC, told the panel, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices.

The goal is “to help this population that may not be as well protected get their booster dose sooner, particularly with concerns about initial immune response, loss of protection over time, and high community transmission due to the Omicron variant,” she said.

Omicron is the dominant variant of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus in the United States. The CCP virus causes COVID-19.

The vaccines were already waning in protection over time against infection while the Delta variant was dominant in the country, and have performed even worse against the Omicron strain.

Dr. Camille Kotton, an infectious disease expert at Massachusetts General Hospital and a panel member, said she had seen many immunocompromised patients in the past two months who “followed all the rules,” including the recommended vaccination schedule, but still became infected with the virus.

The updated guidance “will help dramatically,” she said.

The other likely change deals with the length of time that elapses between the first and second shot of the mRNA vaccines. Both have a two-dose primary schedule.

At present, the second Pfizer dose is recommended around 21 days after the first and the second Moderna dose is recommended around 28 days after the initial shot, but surveillance data shows that among many age groups, particularly young males, who have received the vaccines, there has been a higher than expected rate of heart inflammation.

Data from Canada and England, which have both extended the interval, suggest an extended time period between the first and second doses increased vaccine effectiveness and lowered rates of myocarditis and pericarditis, two forms of heart inflammation that have cropped up following mRNA vaccination.

“The longer interval resulted in lower myocarditis rates, whereas the shorter interval had higher myocarditis and pericarditis rates,” Dr. Bryna Warshawsky with the Public Health Agency of Canada said.

Dr. Grace Lee, a medical officer at the Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital and the advisory panel’s chair, said the data presented “are fairly convincing that an extended interval is not only potentially safer from a myocarditis standpoint, but also potentially more effective.”

The data pertains to when Delta was the dominant variant in much of the world. Omicron displaced Delta in December 2021 in the United States.

Some countries have halted or curtailed the use of the mRNA vaccines, particularly Moderna’s, among youth due to the heart inflammation issues, but U.S. health authorities have so far continued to recommend the shots for all Americans 5 and older, asserting the vaccines prevent more hospitalizations than the heart inflammation cases they cause.

The panel’s COVID-19 vaccines work group, after analyzing altered vaccine schedules from various countries, endorsed an interval of eight weeks between the first and second dose of an mRNA vaccine primary series. The CDC has not yet decided whether to follow the advice.


If changed, the revised schedule could affect millions of people. Some 33 million Americans aged 12 to 39 remain unvaccinated, as well as tens of millions of Americans in older age groups. It would also push back booster shots, which are currently recommended five months after the Moderna or Pfizer primary series, and two months after the initial Johnson & Johnson shot.

Dr. Walid Gellad, a professor of medicine at the University of Pittsburgh, called the expected change “a big deal.”

At the same time, it is “troubling” that it “took so long for US policy making to catch up to other countries,” Gellad, who is not on the panel, wrote on Twitter.

Panel members said they hoped the change would help convince unvaccinated people to get a jab.

“I think that it affords a level of safety and also demonstrates to the public that we are very focused on doing this in the right way,” said Dr. Oliver Brooks, chief medical officer of Watts HealthCare Corporation.

Are you fricking kidding me. This is in and of itself an admission these snake oil injections don't work. What's next, walking around 24/7 with an IV of snake oil stuck in your arm? I cannot believe people are stupid enough to fall for this BS. And they openly say the vaccines lost effectiveness for Delta and have worked even worse for Omicron....but you need another booster anyway. Huh? How about I inject you four times with the Chickenpox vaccine and then be shocked when it doesn't have any effect on Covid acquisition, spread, or symptoms.

Remember PARA's Shapiro video above about 'pivoting'. Well, that doesn't appear to be happening given CDC is forging ahead with business as usual while this administration circles the drain faster and faster.

Another lie from our great leader.


Biden continues fearmongering and inconsistent messaging regarding COVID-19

https://www.washingtonexaminer...g-regarding-covid-19

President Joe Biden tweeted about the risks and perils of not being vaccinated against COVID-19 on Saturday. It was the latest attempt by the president to scare people into getting vaccinated. However, the statistics he used aren’t consistent with many previous reports and studies, including those by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

“Here’s the deal: Unvaccinated individuals are 97 times more likely to die compared to those who are boosted,” Biden tweeted. “Protect yourself and those around you by getting vaccinated and boosted today.”

Clearly, the objective here is to create a sense of fear that if people don't get vaccinated, they are likely to die. For most of the country, that just is not truthful. Vaccines do help prevent death, but even at the peak of the disease, most people who have contracted COVID have recovered.

Yet, at a White House briefing during the last week of November, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky, MD, stated that unvaccinated people were 14 times more likely to die compared to vaccinated people. So, is the country supposed to believe that over the course of about eight weeks, that probability somehow increased nearly seven times?

However, these statistics cited by Biden and the numerous reports of different probabilities do much more harm than good. They reinforce the skepticism of those against vaccines and damage the credibility of this administration. Such credibility was already on thin ice given that Biden said in July 2021 that you will not get the virus if you get the vaccine. Playing around with numbers does nothing to help these concerns. Such discrepancies contribute to the polarity over getting the vaccine.

Don't know if these are vaccine related, posting because of the irony.

According to TMZ, who was first to report the news, McDonald collapsed after delivering her second joke of the evening.

I fell for it and got my first two Moderna vaccines. I will not get vaccinated again for COVID! I still ended up getting COVID and who knows if my symptoms were the way they were because of the vaccine or not as this virus affects so many so different.

My mom with cancer refused the vaccine and got still got COVID and successfully fought it. Her and I both followed the FLCCC protocols which I think is what helped.

We are officially about to hit the 1 million covid deaths mark in America.We all know know this is probably inflated however it is the official narrative,and is the highest total death toll in the world. It is sure to bring about a great embarrassment to the Biden regime when the 1 million mark is reached. So maybe that is why hospitals are told to stop reporting covid deaths to the government. There is a reason they are changing policy after 2 years.

My SIL works at the local hospital. When you subtract all the GSW, vehicle accidents, heart attacks and any other cause of death that was creditied to COVID over the last couple of years, I doubt we are anywhere near 1,000,000 deaths from it in the U.S.

These days, no matter what actually killed you, you died from COVID. Regards 18DAI

How many of those that died FROM Covid could have been saved with basic outpatient therapies that are proven and utilized globally now? (and were readily available in 2020)

You are right but it is the official fear count.Now that Biden is in the White House it is working against the Democrats. When it officially hits 1 million it will produce headlines and people will see how bad their policies have failed. "The world's leader in deaths." So much like the illegal alien problem where they ship them all over the U.S. in the dead of night and refuse to release the numbers to even Senators, they will try to hide the numbers from the American people now that their fear campaign will backfire on them.

Just my 2 cents worth.

I’m on day 5, I think. Sore throat finally gone. I’m right near zero energy and plan to spend the day in bed.
