The Shots Have Failed, So Let’s Amp Up Global Vaccination Rates!

African countries have done well during the pandemic without high rates of vaccination. The Biden regime won’t stand for that.

By Debra Heine
April 19, 2022

The White House on Monday announced a second global COVID-19 summit to discuss how to bolster vaccination rates internationally, despite data from around the world showing the mRNA and adenovirus-vector vaccines do not stop the spread of the virus, and appear to be associated with a higher rate of non-COVID deaths.

In a joint statement with Belize, Germany, Indonesia, and Senegal, the White House said the purpose of the summit, which is scheduled to be held virtually on May 12, will be to “redouble our collective efforts to end the acute phase of the COVID-19 pandemic and prepare for future health threats.”

“The emergence and spread of new variants, like Omicron, have reinforced the need for a strategy aimed at controlling Covid-19 worldwide. Together, we can mitigate the impact of Covid-19 and protect those at the highest risk with vaccinations, testing, and treatments,” the statement said. “We know we must prepare now to build, sustain, and finance the global capacity we need, not only for emerging Covid-19 variants, but also future health crises.”

The summit originally was scheduled for March but was pushed to April after the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and because the administration was still working with Congress to secure funding “for millions of people in low- and middle-income countries,” Politico reported. The event was reportedly postponed again on April 5 after Congress voted down the $19 billion in additional funding USAID requested to support its efforts to ramp up vaccination rates in 11 low-income African countries through the end of the year.

This push to vaccinate low-income African countries makes little sense in the face of data that show unvaccinated African countries doing much better with COVID than heavily vaccinated countries.

For instance, in “low-income” Nigeria (population 206 million), only 6.5 percent of the population is fully vaccinated, yet the country has had only 3,143 COVID deaths compared to 987,000 deaths in the heavily vaccinated United States. In Cameroon (population 26.55 million), only 1,927 people have died of the virus. Low COVID fatality rates, in fact, are typical throughout Africa, even though rates of infection have been high.

A recent WHO study found that true infections in Africa were 97 percent greater than initially recorded, which means that 65 percent of the entire continent has already been infected. The authors of the study estimated that the infection rate had reached 76 percent in West Africa by the end of the third quarter of 2021, before Omicron hit.

“Despite repeated warnings from WHO director-general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus that the coronavirus would devastate Africa, the continent has been among the least affected by the pandemic,” the Associated Press couldn’t help but notice.

To explain the disparity, the WHO pointed out that Africans tend to have fewer comorbidities than people in other nations.

In its new analysis, WHO said the milder COVID-19 cases seen in Africa were attributable in part to the continent’s much smaller proportion of people with underlying risk factors like high blood pressure, diabetes and heart disease.

Another factor could be the antiparasitic and antiviral drug Ivermectin. Mortality was significantly lower in African countries that participated in an intensive campaign for Ivermectin use to to control onchocerciasis, also known as river blindness.

New Zealand (population 5 million) was doing similarly well for the first two years of the pandemic amid draconian lockdown policies. But things changed for the island nation after its mass vaccination campaign, as noted by The Blaze‘s Daniel Horowitz:

According to the NZ ministry of health, every age bracket has achieved higher than a 90% vaccination rate except for those ages 5-11. Also, more than half of all adults, especially those in vulnerable categories, have boosters.

Thus, New Zealand lived out the COVID bio-state dream. The population fully locked down until three doses were available. Thus, they should be experiencing no COVID, and certainly no COVID deaths, right? Well, in fact, New Zealand experienced nearly all of its deaths precisely after all of this was accomplished in March 2022! And with the mildest of variants!

The May 12 summit, the White House statement said, will focus on several areas and “place an emphasis on supporting locally-led solutions to both immediate and long-term challenges.”

But the verdict on the worldwide mass vaccination campaign is in already.

COVID rates have soared since Biden convened the first global COVID-19 summit in September, as the Delta and Omicron variants proved to be impervious to the vaccines.

And the data in country after country show huge increases in COVID cases where most people are fully vaccinated, along with unacceptable levels of vaccine injuries and deaths.

The shots have failed.

So naturally, the Biden regime is repeating and reinforcing its global mass vaccination agenda.

The White House called on “world leaders, members of civil society, non-governmental organizations, philanthropists, and the private sector to make new commitments and bring solutions to vaccinate the world, save lives now, and build better health security—for everyone, everywhere.”

At the top of the list of solutions is “getting shots into arms.”

If anyone ever wondered, this mask insanity has shown us exactly which people in our society are the most gullible, weak minded, obedient and just plain stupid. Of course, social media does a good job of that too.

Yeah, OK douchebag

Up to this point it's been the MASKERS harassing and bullying the free breathers who just want to be left the fuck alone.

Paul Krugman has always been a douche bag.
He makes a lot of predictions, all of them wrong.

If you do nothing today, click the link and scroll down through the responses and tweets under leftist krugmans page, read the propaganda, video from a Mass Senator, they even still attack Trump. these folks are absolutely bat shit crazy...

Maybe it's time to repost this so it can be shared with all the 'Science Deniers' out there losing their minds right now...

Here's a middle school level science experiment demonstrating the effectiveness of masks:

Of course, ANYONE who's ever worn glasses with a mask 'should' already know that Masks Don't Work!

While the US and its citizens suffer, our elected reps opt to send more money (we don't have) to people the US has 'zero' responsibility for, and that by most metrics, have done better without our meddling. Yep, I hate them all in Washington.

It's worse than that even...
The money goes to Pfizer and Moderna (a portion of which gets recycled to Democrat campaigns) and the shots go into the arms of people who don't need or want them.

Why do we want the shots in their arms? Eliminate the control group. Almost none of them have been vaccinated, yet they have almost no Covid problem. What have they used in Africa? Ivermectin!

This is great (video in tweet so I can't embed):

I don't know what chance a bill like this has to pass in Rhode Island, but nevertheless, it just reinforces the timeless edict...never vote for a democrat.

*****************************

Rhode Island Dems Submit Bill To Double State Income Tax For Parents Of Unvaccinated Minors

Rhode Island Democrats want to punish the parents of children who refused to submit to the COVID vaccine mandates.

If passed, the bill will financially cripple individuals by doubling their personal income tax and requiring them to pay a monthly fine of $50.

State Senator Samuel Bell is the lead legislator backing the bill, which mandates all Rhode Island residents, workers, and taxpayers receive a COVID-19 vaccine as well as any subsequent boosters that the state’s director of the department of health shall require.

The bill’s text can be read here.



The law will apply to every person “of at least 16 years of age” as well as every person “under 16 years of age” and over 10 years of age.

In order to receive an exemption for a minor, an extremely strict requirement has been drafted into the bill. Parents will need to have three different doctors state on record that the child is “not fit for immunization” and the child themselves will have to place their signature on the form.

The state’s department of health will then be vested with the power to investigate each individual case and, without details provided as to how the determination might be made, may summarily reject the petition and reinstate monetary penalties on the minor’s guardians.

Employers, both public and private, will be tasked with enforcing the legislation as well. If an employee who is not strictly working remotely fails to provide proof of vaccine and his employer fails to terminate his employment, that employer will receive a monthly fine of $5,000 imposed on them.

Bell, who is personally motivated due to an ailing newborn son with a compromised immune system, was joined by Senators Mack, Acosta, Anderson, Seveney, and Mendes in introducing this bill.

To justify the legislation, Bell has pointed critics in the direction of a Boston Globe piece by journalist Dan McGowan that makes the claim that nearly 65% of residents support a statewide mandate. This number comes from a survey that was conducted by a ‘joint project’ known as the COVID-19 Consortium for Understanding the Public Police Preferences Across States.

What McGowan and Bell fail to mention is that the methodology of the survey—which was rubberstamped by Harvard, Northeastern, Rutgers, and Northwestern—states plainly that it is a ‘nonprobability sample‘ done using an online tool created for market research.

That’s a highbrow way of saying ‘this survey isn’t at all representative of the population and, in fact, it’s not even random sampling at all.’

It’s self-evident that this sort of legislation is a violation of Rhode Islanders’ individual liberty, but to justify it with a survey regulated by the same rules as a Whose Line? episode is beyond the pale.

I’ve been saying this since masks were introduced- masks might stop large droplets (which isn’t even inhaled) but the fine vapor (which can hang in the air for quite a while) is barely affected. Short of a full face respirator, you’re not stopping Covid with paper, cloth, an N-95, etc.

State Senator Samuel Bell

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_Bell_(politician)

Samuel W. Bell (born July 7, 1989) is an American politician who serves in the Rhode Island State Senate representing the 5th district in Providence. A Democrat, he was first elected to the senate in the 2018 elections, and assumed office in 2019.[1] Bell is a member of the Democratic Socialists of America.[2

A data scientist at Brown University prior to his election to the legislature, Bell was most noted for an investigation which revealed that the National Rifle Association was illegally funneling national money into Rhode Island state elections in an attempt to prevent the state from passing gun control legislation. His investigation resulted in the NRA being forced to shut down its Rhode Island political action committee.[4]

Bell decided to become involved in politics as a result of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Newtown, Connecticut in 2012.[5] Bell defeated incumbent senator Paul Jabour in the Democratic primary in September 2018,[6] and ran unopposed in the general election.[1] He assumed office on January 1, 2019.[7]

Bell ran for re-election in 2020, being challenged in the Democratic primary by majority leader of the Providence City Council Jo-Ann Ryan.[8] Bell defeated Ryan by 50 percentage points, and ran unopposed in the general election.[9]

When not in the senate Bell works as a geologist.[5]

Personal life
Bell is married to Samantha Weiser, a chairwoman of the Rhode Island Democratic Women's Caucus who also works for Hasbro.[3][10] Bell and his wife are both Jewish and identify as bisexual.[11] They live together in Mount Pleasant.[5] In October 2018, Bell publicly alleged that he and Weiser were personally targeted with antisemitic and homophobic posts from users of the neo-Nazi forum website Stormfront.[11]

The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) is a multi-tendency socialist and labor-oriented political organization.[7] Its roots are in the Socialist Party of America (SPA), whose leaders included Eugene V. Debs, Norman Thomas and Michael Harrington.[8] In 1973, Harrington, the leader of a minority faction that had opposed the SPA's transformation into the Social Democrats, USA (SDUSA) during the party's 1972 national convention, formed the Democratic Socialist Organizing Committee (DSOC). The DSOC, which Harrington described as "the remnant of a remnant", soon became the largest democratic socialist group in the United States. In 1982, it merged with the New American Movement (NAM), a coalition of intellectuals with roots in the New Left movements of the 1960s and former members of socialist and communist parties of the Old Left.[9]

Initially, the organization consisted of approximately 5,000 ex-DSOC members and 1,000 ex-NAM members. Upon the founding of the DSA, Harrington and the socialist feminist author Barbara Ehrenreich were elected as co-chairs of the organization. The DSA has a stated goal of "[participating in] fights for reforms today that will weaken the power of corporations and increase the power of working people." To achieve this goal, the organization has endorsed Democratic presidential candidates, including Walter Mondale, Jesse Jackson, John Kerry, Barack Obama and Bernie Sanders, as well as Green Party candidate Ralph Nader and other third party candidates.

The DSA is the largest socialist organization in the United States.[10] As of July 2021, the membership of the organization was reported at over 94,000 and the number of local chapters was 239.[1] The organization is credited with the rise of millennial socialism;[10] in December 2017, the median age of its membership was 33, compared to 68 in 2013.[11]

Though not a political party , members of the DSA have run in elections and held office. In November 2018, two DSA members, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rashida Tlaib, were elected to the House of Representatives as Democrats. Eleven were elected to state legislatures.[12] In November 2020, Ocasio-Cortez and Tlaib were re-elected to the House, and were joined by two more DSA members, Cori Bush and Jamaal Bowman, who have also been seated as Democrats.

Information, seeing the lunacy in action, reckon it's like watching a train wreck.

Actually we need to see and read it, this place can be an Echo chamber, and that's all and good, but every once in a while it's wise to see what the other side is saying and doing, and the conviction they do so with.
