Absofuckinglutly!!!

Since the start of this shitshow back in December 2019 when I first heard of "the old whiny" people worried that they might die from the China Flu, my bile level was very high, because I "heard" the lack of concern for those who will have to bear this load of bullshit for generations to come, and such selfishness is appalling to me.

Yeah, I'm beating my dead horse even deader, again. The damage we have done and will continue to propagate long after the landfills are overflowing with useless masks, and "reasonable society" becomes a footnote on the dusty pages of history.

My grandchildren are reaping this crap, and should they have children, theirs as well.

I am the most selfish SOB for them and on their behalf.

I have had a damned good run, and am grateful for those that sacrificed that I had such opportunities.

And to anyone that this shoe fits, I hope you understand and live to regret your selfish part in all of it. For your fear of death, I have no compassion.

Biden Extends US National Emergency Over COVID-19

https://www.theepochtimes.com/...MZwkIRTR7HyHdxZnsGM4

President Joe Biden said the U.S. national emergency that was declared in early 2020 due to COVID-19 will be extended beyond March 1, citing what he called a “risk to the public health and safety.”

In a letter released on the White House website, Biden told House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) that “there remains a need to continue this national emergency.”

“The COVID-19 pandemic continues to cause significant risk to the public health and safety of the Nation. More than 900,000 people in this Nation have perished from the disease, and it is essential to continue to combat and respond to COVID-19 with the full capacity and capability of the Federal Government,” he wrote, adding that his office has “determined that it is necessary to continue the national emergency declared” almost two years ago.

As of late last year, data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Johns Hopkins University showed that there were 60,000 more COVID-19 deaths under the Biden administration than under the Trump administration.

President Donald Trump had declared a national emergency, which allowed the freeing up of about $50 billion in federal aid.


The emergency would have been automatically terminated unless, within 90 days prior to the anniversary date of its declaration, the president sent a notice to Congress stating it is to continue beyond the anniversary date.

“For this reason, the national emergency declared on March 13, 2020, and beginning March 1, 2020, must continue in effect beyond March 1, 2022,” Biden wrote in another statement, adding that the notice will be published in the Federal Register.

His decision to extend the emergency comes as several Democrat governors moved to rescind COVID-19 mandates, including mask rules, in recent days. The governors of New York and Massachusetts announced last week that they would end certain mask mandates in their states, following similar moves by New Jersey, California, Connecticut, Delaware, and Oregon.

And federal health officials last week indicated during a White House briefing that they were preparing for the next phase of the pandemic as Omicron cases have dropped.

One of those officials, White House COVID-19 adviser Anthony Fauci, told MNSBC on Tuesday that he doesn’t believe political sentiment is the reason why mandates are being dropped nationwide.

Some critics have said, however, that Democrat leaders are turning away from COVID-19 rules because they fear losing either the House or Senate in the 2022 midterms.

A Jan. 31 Monmouth University Poll showed that about 70 percent of Americans agree with the statement: “It’s time we accept that COVID is here to stay and we just need to get on with our lives.”

Naaa... he will still declare victory over COVID at the SOTU. And take all the credit.
The logical inconsistency is of no concern.

I am no smart guy, but I don't think they understand what the word emergency means. An emergency is a short term need for immediate action, not a two year engagement. At that point it's kind of just a situation.

So if Biden said that there is no “federal solution to Covid”, why is the doddering old fuck preaching about an unnecessary emergency extension? I’d love to see that old traitor drop dead so he can’t enjoy his ill gotten gain for even a second longer.

That 'has not' been proven in court just yet. Big Pharma may have total protection from liability, but I tend to agree with a number of the legal eagles I read about online that have suggested both employers and colleges, and any other groups with significant control over a person's life and future, may indeed be open to legal liability if they forced people to take a vaccine to maintain a substantial piece of their lives if that person later has a negative outcome as a result of taking said vaccine. I hope that works out to be the case, and that huge lawsuits result from the actions of all these entities.

New Zealand Coronavirus Restrictions Stay: PM Jacinda Ardern Says ‘Battle’ Just Begun

https://www.breitbart.com/euro...s-battle-just-begun/

New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern announced Monday her left-wing Labour government won’t lift coronavirus restrictions until they are “well beyond” the peak of the virus, speaking even as anti-mandate protest numbers continue to swell in the capital.

Ardern has predicted that coronavirus case numbers are likely to peak mid-late March, but restrictions including reporting who you meet with in public via the NZ COVID-19 Tracer app, social distancing from people you don’t know, vaccine passes and mandatory vaccinations will remain until further notice.

The leader has claimed the vaccine passports resulted in New Zealand avoiding “more general restrictions across the whole population”, and insisted the current measures including vaccine passes are “temporary.”

Ardern, a former president of the International Union of Socialist Youth who mysteriously blamed “imported” forces for driving protests in her country, also highlighted despite the measures being “temporary” she has stated they will “remain important in some areas though, for some time”.

“Now is not the time to dismantle our hard work and preparation, to remove our armour just as the battle begins” Ardern insisted at a press conference on Monday, the Guardian reports.

The Labour leader also attempted to chastise the anti-coronavirus restrictions protestors who have remained outside New Zealand’s parliament for the last two weeks by suggesting protestors should be “celebrating” that the restrictions were in place “rather than protesting”.

While New Zealand has had record low numbers of coronavirus deaths and cases, with 32,927 cases detected in total and 53 deaths overall, around 50 percent of NZ’s cases (16,356) are currently present in the local community, raising concerns about a lack of natural immunity to the virus as a consequence of strict coronavirus restrictions.

The Wellington Freedom Convoy has remained outside the New Zealand Parliament for the last 14 days, with police being forced to take a softer approach with protestors after a crackdown attempt which saw 120 arrested backfired when a video showing a naked woman being dragged by her hair by police officers went viral and brought widespread condemnation on the police.

Freedom convoy numbers are said to have significantly swollen in size, with around 800 vehicles blocking the roads around the parliament over the weekend as Kiwis from across the country arrived to show their support.

New Zealand’s police have however begun an operation to starve the protestors of support after they placed concrete blocks around the protest in the early hours of Monday morning in an effort to prevent more vehicles from arriving.

Protestors are reported to have clashed with the around 300 police officers during this operation. Eight protestors were arrested and seven police officers injured, with some protestors allegedly throwing human faeces at the officers.

Despite the clashes on the streets of Wellington, Ardern refuses to brook any criticism for her actions against the Freedom Convoy, as exchanges with local media confirm:

The Wellington Parliament freedom convoy has pledged to remain in place “as long as it takes” for Ardern to lift the restrictions, while Ardern insists the convoy will not have an impact on her decision to lift restrictions.

New Zealand Police Commissioner Andrew Coster has claimed to have been in touch with Canadian authorities after they passed emergency powers leading to the violent removal of the three week-long Ottawa freedom convoy by riot gear clad police officers over the weekend.

CDC admits it withheld data from the public because they didn't want to create vaccine hesitancy

This is from the NY Times. The truth is the data didn't support their narrative so they hid it. Do you think they would hide the data if it showed the vaccines worked? Of course not!

Steve Kirsch

CDC admits it withheld unfavorable data

Here’s the story in the NY Times which says:

Kristen Nordlund, a spokeswoman for the C.D.C., said the agency has been slow to release the different streams of data “because basically, at the end of the day, it’s not yet ready for prime time.” She said the agency’s “priority when gathering any data is to ensure that it’s accurate and actionable.”



But the C.D.C. has been routinely collecting information since the Covid vaccines were first rolled out last year, according to a federal official familiar with the effort. The agency has been reluctant to make those figures public, the official said, because they might be misinterpreted as the vaccines being ineffective.

https://www.nytimes.com/2022/0.../covid-cdc-data.html

Here’s a tweet about it:

@NBSaphierMDNicole Saphier, MD @NBSaphierMD
The CDC’s response when questioned about their withholding of Covid data and lack of transparency is essentially “we don’t trust you to be able to understand the truth.”

The condescension is palpable.

https://stevekirsch.substack.c...-from?utm_source=url

Hiding the data to avoid vaccine hesitancy is literally the opposite of informed consent. Doesn't matter if that information supports or doesn't support the safe and effective narrative, they have admitted to violating The Nuremberg Code and every other moral and ethical medical standard they're sworn to uphold.

And here's the crazy thing. Dr. Nicole Saphire thinks it means the wheels are coming off, but really nobody is going to care. And by nobody I mean the cabal that has pushed the mass vaccination as the solution to everything narrative, which includes the NY Times. The NY Times will do nothing to further investigate this because they believe and agree with the CDC's reasoning/excuse.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

They withhold data if it does not support their narrative.

From the article:

Kristen Nordlund, a spokeswoman for the C.D.C., said the agency has been slow to release the different streams of data “because basically, at the end of the day, it’s not yet ready for prime time.” She said the agency’s “priority when gathering any data is to ensure that it’s accurate and actionable.”

Another reason is fear that the information might be misinterpreted, Ms. Nordlund said.

“The C.D.C. is a political organization as much as it is a public health organization,” said Samuel Scarpino, managing director of pathogen surveillance at the Rockefeller Foundation’s Pandemic Prevention Institute.

Last year, the agency repeatedly came under fire for not tracking so-called breakthrough infections in vaccinated Americans, and focusing only on individuals who became ill enough to be hospitalized or die. The agency presented that information as risk comparisons with unvaccinated adults, rather than provide timely snapshots of hospitalized patients stratified by age, sex, race and vaccination status.

Ms. Nordlund confirmed that as one of the reasons. Another reason, she said, is that the data represents only 10 percent of the population of the United States. But the C.D.C. has relied on the same level of sampling to track influenza for years.

Some outside public health experts were stunned to hear that information exists.

“We have been begging for that sort of granularity of data for two years,” said Jessica Malaty Rivera, an epidemiologist and part of the team that ran Covid Tracking Project, an independent effort that compiled data on the pandemic till March 2021.

A detailed analysis, she said, “builds public trust, and it paints a much clearer picture of what’s actually going on.”

Concern about the misinterpretation of hospitalization data broken down by vaccination status is not unique to the C.D.C. On Thursday, public health officials in Scotland said they would stop releasing data on Covid hospitalizations and deaths by vaccination status because of similar fears that the figures would be misrepresented by anti-vaccine groups.

It actually makes a lot of sense for the CDC to hide the data. If the data shows the vaccines to be ineffective, people could used their scientific data as mis/dis/mal information. Can't have facts get in the way of the plan, whatever it is.

I hear people say it's about money, or God knows what else, but seriously, what in the world could the goal be here?

I understood when the medicine was effective against original strains, but it's no longer effective, why is there still a push for it? I can think of some kind of weird conspiracy theories like protection from eminent alien invasion, or aliens have already arrived and infiltrated the government and they are genetically modifying us to make good hosts. Literally any reason I think of to continue the push seems about as silly as aliens.
