The virus may be withering in a year but unfortunately the Branch Covidians are here to stay I'm afraid.

COVID Will End Up Resembling Common Cold By Spring Next Year, Leading Experts Say

Professor Dame Sarah Gilbert and Sir John Bell have both said coronavirus will eventually cause illness which are as mild as a common cold, playing down fears of a more deadly variant and adding the UK "is over the worst".

"Those who do not get vaccinated will immunize themselves naturally, because the Delta variant is so contagious," he added.

"In this way we will end up in a situation similar to that of the flu. You can either get vaccinated and have a good winter. Or you don't do it and risk getting sick and possibly even ending up in hospital."

I like how she compares it to the Flu and Flu shot. The vast majority of everyone I know the contracts the Flu every year had received the Flu vaccine in the Fall.

Not sure if this has been brought up but BLM New York has come out against vaccine mandates. Seems nobody is talking about it.

They're also people that's never got their ass handed to them for sticking their nose where it doesn't belong.

Yeah, that's been on the news.

One of two things will happen:
1. BLM will be bought off by the Biden administration to change their stance.
or
2. Fauci will announce a new scientific discovery that the vaccine isn't effective for blacks, or any people of color, and the mask & vaccine mandates don't apply to them. They should then receive reparations for any inconveniences this pandemic has caused them.

ONE CAN HOPE !!

at some point it will be funny to watch the COVID doomers hang on tooth-and-nail to every excuse they can to prolong the FEAR ! Smile

for my part -- I'm not a COVID 'denier' -- its been a serious health problem sadly. but many in the US have lost their collective minds over it -- and the fear mongering drives me bat-shit

As they say- Follow the money.

https://investinganswers.com/a...tocks-owned-congress
Hmmm! This is interesting. According to this article, of the top 10 stocks owned by members of Congress in 2021, Pfizer comes in at number six, and J&J is number seven. And I'm sure their families have invested accordingly.

Allowing the human immune system to do what it was meant to do doesn't put money in Swamp Critter's pockets, so this pandemic needs to continue.

30 facts you NEED to know: Your Covid Cribsheet
You asked for it, so we made it. A collection of all the arguments you’ll ever need.

https://off-guardian.org/2021/...our-covid-cribsheet/



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
-- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

How are things down under? They have unintentionally made the most compelling example ever for why you cannot ever allow only the military and police to have access to all the good guns.

We’ve given up too much here in the USA already with regard to the 2A. But we have seen some successes as well. We should never lose sight of that.

The way that nanny state’s surveillance apparatus works I may never set foot in Australia again. I caught more than just a few bans on social media for being QUITE vocal against their government. This was BEFORE all the covid garbage started. Fuck that government and the jackboot wannabes who think it’s ok to walk all over their citizens.

It sucks that Australia is inhabited by so many drones. There are good people there who don’t deserve to live like that.

Based on the reaction of employees and customers, you'd have thought these people were on fire and eating babies when they entered the store. Fucking lemmings. Everybody wants to be a cop.

Santa Cruz, CA, and the store was Trader Joe’s. Trader Joe’s has some nice stuff, but a *lot* of them are “granola eaters”. They have been very religious about masks from day one.


I was at that Trader Joe’s this summer while on vacation. We were at that store the morning the statewide lockdown was lifted. We didn’t wear masks. Nobody said a thing. Employees were all smiles. In fact, as we were entering the store the employees were laughing and rejoicing at removing the tape barriers and signs outside the store.

All that to say, what lemmings they are. Apparently incapable of critical thought, only able to think what their government and media tell them to think. It’s so sad.

This should give the wear-your-mask crowd a stroke, since those are the same people who whine about climate change and saving the planet:

22. Masks are bad for the planet. Millions upon millions of disposable masks have been used per month for over a year. A report from the UN found the Covid19 pandemic will likely result in plastic waste more than doubling in the next few years., and the vast majority of that is face masks.

The report goes on to warn these masks (and other medical waste) will clog sewage and irrigation systems, which will have knock on effects on public health, irrigation and agriculture.

A study from the University of Swansea found “heavy metals and plastic fibres were released when throw-away masks were submerged in water.” These materials are toxic to both people and wildlife.


Your move, shit heads Cool

BTW, item number 29 - I've pointed this out several times. It's a puzzler, ain't it? Better get Scoob and the gang to warm up the Mystery Van.

"29. Since the beginning of 2020, the Flu has “disappeared”. In the United States, since February 2020, influenza cases have allegedly dropped by over 98%.

It’s not just the US either, globally flu has apparently almost completely disappeared.

Meanwhile, a new disease called “Covid”, which has identical symptoms and a similar mortality rate to influenza, is supposedly sweeping the globe."

This mass hysteria will be studied by future scholars...it'll become a cautionary tale. In a sane, rational world the 'experts' responsible for the world economies reaction to this pathogen would be tarred and feathered...the cucks are still giving terrible advice to this day and some are actually idolized by the culture. It's truly insane, but fear is a powerful emotion and half the population operates on emotion.

Ivermectin for Prevention and Treatment of COVID-19 Infection: A Systematic Review, Meta-analysis, and Trial Sequential Analysis to Inform Clinical Guidelines

Conclusions:

Moderate-certainty evidence finds that large reductions in COVID-19 deaths are possible using ivermectin. Using ivermectin early in the clinical course may reduce numbers progressing to severe disease. The apparent safety and low cost suggest that ivermectin is likely to have a significant impact on the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic globally.

Interesting info on disposable masks and the doubling of plastic waste they are causing. The left never cares to see the consequences of their actions. Maybe Fauci can win some kind of award for being the single greatest influence to plastic pollution in history. Quite an accomplishment.

Sadly, there are a number of studies with similar conclusions. Yet, those in power continue to eschew treatment in favor of prevention, even though their preventive measures have failed and will continue to do so. It makes no sense...unless there is another agenda.

Personally, I believe the goal is/has been to utterly disrupt the healthcare system in this country, and worldwide for that matter, in order to usher in universal healthcare. "Never let a good crisis go to waste", and all that.

Will the COVID-19 crisis catalyse universal health reforms?

I couldn't believe that simply money was the only motivation for this Covid tyranny. And sure, nationalized healthcare was in the mix, as if it weren't already. But in my myopia, I didn't look far enough. I think you're right, Gustofer, internationalized healthcare goes a long way in the explaining the breadth and depth of the power grab that is afoot.

Uh oh Biden, you fuckwit, what are you going to do now? Seems only about half of the contracted military ship builders are vaccinated.

https://www.defenseone.com/bus...e-vaccinated/185593/

Only about half of the workers at two of the Navy’s shipbuilders are vaccinated against COVID-19, top executives from the two companies said.

The sobering numbers, which were revealed during Defense One’s State of the Navy event Thursday morning, offer a snapshot of defense contractors’ struggle to get workers vaccinated. The Biden administration is expected to release vaccination guidelines for federal contractors on Friday.

“We're waiting to see what either the [Federal Acquisition Regulations] or the OSHA rules, once promulgated, do,” said Mark Vandroff, CEO of Fincantieri Marinette Marine. “That would give us additional requirements and potentially additional authorities, since right now we can't force our employees to be vaccinated.”

The Wisconsin shipyard, which borders Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, makes Freedom-class littoral combat ships. Last year, it won a contract to build Constellation-class frigates for the Navy. It also builds warships for Saudi Arabia.

“Right now, we're masked when we're around other people when we're not outdoors,” Vandroff said. “We'll keep that mask requirement in place for as long as we remain a high transmission area.”

Since the beginning of the pandemic, 330 of the shipyard’s 1,350 workers—about 25 percent of the workforce—have been infected with COVID-19, Vandroff said. None have died.

“North of 50 percent” of workers at Marinette Marine are vaccinated, Vandroff said. That’s slightly more than the general population of Marinette County itself.

The company has offered workers free vaccines at the shipyard. Workers are also given paid time off to get vaccinated, Vanddroff said.

“We're going to continue to make vaccines available to our workforce and continue to urge that,” he said.

Meanwhile, at General Dynamics Electric Boat, the employee vaccination rate “is in the neighborhood of about 50 percent,” according to Kevin Graney, the company’s president.

Electric Boat—which builds Virginia-class and Columbia-class nuclear submarines—employs more than 14,000 workers, most of whom work in Groton, Connecticut, and Quonset Point, Rhode Island. That’s far below the average in the surrounding New London and Washington counties, where the overall vaccine rate is 69 percent, according to the New York Times vaccine tracker.

“We're continuing to make sure that [vaccines are] available to everyone,” Graney said.

Graney said workers at Electric Boat’s Connecticut and Rhode Island facilities are required to wear masks indoors.

Many Navy shipbuilding are located in states and counties with low vaccination rates. For instance, Huntington Ingalls Industries’ Ingalls Shipbuilding is in Pascagoula, Mississippi, where the vaccination rate is 37 percent. HII’s Newport News Shipbuilding is located in a community that has a 45 percent vaccination level. The vaccine rate in Mobile, Alabama, where Austal USA builds the Independence-class Littoral Combat Ship, is 41 percent.

The Pentagon has mandated COVID-19 vaccines for all uniformed military personnel; all federal civilian workers must be vaxxed by November. Guidance for contractors is expected to be announced on Friday.

“We'll see what OSHA and what the [federal acquisition regulations] does as far as additional rules, and we'll be ready to comply with those rules,” Vandroff said.

The United Launch Alliance was the first major defense contractor to require employees to get vaccinations.

Leidos has said its employees must be vaccinated by Oct. 1 or provide a negative COVID-19 test result to gain access to a company facility, a company spokesman said.
