18 Reasons I Won't Be Getting a Covid Vaccine
All my friends had not heard most of the details I shared, so I figured you might appreciate hearing some of what I told them. Knowing how contentious this issue is, part of me would rather just write about something else, but I feel like the discussion/news is so one-sided that I should speak up.

How Big Pharma Uses Fauci and the Media to Murder Americans
TRANSCRIPT
In February of 2020, a state-run Chinese institute seeks a patent on the use of remdesivir to treat coronavirus, based on the results of a single patient.
In April of 2020, Anthony Fauci cited a study, which he said proved remdesivir could block coronavirus.
He claimed the study showed that remdesivir was “safe and efficacious” in the use against the Ebola virus in 2018 and 2019.
But this was a lie.
If one were to actually look at the study, which was testing four different drugs against Ebola virus, they will find that the Safety Board pulled remdesivir out of the trial 6 months early, because over 50% of the patients who received it died.
Fauci quoted a second study in his mandating of the use of remdesivir, a study conducted by the makers of remdesivir, wherein 50 patients with COVID were administered the drug for 10 days.
27% of them suffered from multiple organ dysfunction, septic shock ad acute kidney injury.
8% of them had to be taken off the drug after only 5 days, because it was killing them.
After the CCP and Fauci recommended the use of remdesivir, the US secured the world’s supply and began treating Americans with it.
COVID patients immediately began suffering kidney failure, which was then blamed on COVID, even though studies by the manufacturer show that Remdesivir causes it in 23% after only a few days.
When the kidneys fail, the lungs fill with liquid, which is how thousands have died in the hospitals, being put on ventilators.
And it’s all being blamed on COVID.
But if we read the fine print, we see that this is t be expected with remdesivir.
And this has happened before.
YouTuber, Jamie Dlux compared two patients from the past, Freddie Mercury and Magic Johnson, both diagnosed with HIV around the same time, both advised by none other than Anthony Fauci to take the drug, AZT.
As Freddie Mercury took deadly doses of the drug, his health quickly deteriorated until he died.
Magic Johnson started taking it but it made him feel worse and so he stopped.
The media storm surrounding Johnson’s condition immediately disappeared after he stopped taking AZT and never mentioned it.
And Magic Johnson is alive and healthy today.
This is how they kill us.
They sow fear with pop culture lies and kill us with deadly drugs in the hospital.
Just like the so-called vaccines, which the FDA were aware of how deadly they were back in October of last year, where they published all the side effects we are seeing today in the vaccinated, while failing to include them in the vaccine inserts.
For copies of these documents and for healthy treatment, you can go to Dr Ardis’ website.

Facebook Labels Canning and Gardening Groups as Too Prepared
In July 2020, Facebook announced they would add labels to posts from politicians “to protect the election and promote healthy civic engagement.”1 The labels were supposed to identify content Facebook thought was inflammatory, misinformation or lies, without removing the post.
Why Facebook felt they should “moderate” free speech that was not incendiary or promoted violence is a question for another time. According to left-leaning Media Matters for America,2 while the media giant continues to use labels on posts, a study of Trump's posts found that those that were labeled as possible misinformation had significantly more interactions than those that were not labeled.
In other words, the labels appeared to engage more readers. Facebook began testing a new label in July 2021. These labels don’t just identify potential “misinformation,” but go even further to prompt readers — asking if their friends are becoming extremists.3 Historically, extreme ideas have proven to advance society or drag it back into the Dark Ages. Consider:
- Book burning by the Nazis to ensure the next generation did not have access to thoughts contrary to Hitler4
- The idea that humans can fly, leading to the Wright brothers inventing the airplane
- That electricity could be harnessed, with visionaries like Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Edison working to find ways to have light in the dark
- That the medical establishment didn’t entertain the idea of handwashing to stop the spread of disease until 20 years of data showed the practice lowered rates of infection5
The thread that runs through these extreme ideas is that censorship influences the way society thinks and therefore changes the outcome. Had the German people been allowed to think for themselves, an entire country may not have been swayed by the propaganda of one man. If the medical community were open to the idea that their behavior was killing people, they may have saved thousands.
Of course, there are extreme ideas that should not be entertained. People will never be able to fly without assistance or walk into fire without protection. Yet, without censorship, these ideas die a natural death. It’s only through debate and sharing information that the truth wins out. And the truth is the only foundation on which society can realistically and confidently continue.
Facebook Labels Gardeners as Possible Extremists
CNN reported that Facebook prompts are being shown to some individuals, cautioning them that they may know someone who is becoming an extremist. Other prompts are letting people know they've been exposed to extremist content. This is part of Facebook's Redirect Initiative.6 Facebook spokesperson Andy Stone told CNN:7
"This test is part of our larger work to assess ways to provide resources and support to people on Facebook who may have engaged with or were exposed to extremist content or may know someone who is at risk. We are partnering with NGOs and academic experts in this space and hope to have more to share in the future.”
In the past, Facebook has been criticized for not acting on content that encourages people toward violence. Yet, these warnings are also attached to posts sharing information about seemingly innocuous subjects, like buying food. According to CNET:8
“One of the alerts, shared on Twitter, asks: ‘Are you concerned that someone you know is becoming an extremist? We care about preventing extremism on Facebook. Others in your situation have received confidential support.’
Another alert reads: ‘Violent groups try to manipulate your anger and disappointment. You can take action now to protect yourself and others.’”
As an image saved on archive.is from Reddit shows,9 Facebook is labeling those selling home-grown beef as “too prepared.” Compare the extremist views of preparedness to the Forbes10 report August 17, 2021, that the Taliban would have control of the Afghan social media accounts.
However, it doesn’t stop there. Twitter posts are reporting screenshots of canning and gardening groups that are also being asked, “Are you concerned that someone you know is too prepared? We care about preventing extremism on Facebook. Others in your situation have received confidential support.”
In other words, Facebook is labeling people who are preparing their food supply as potential extremists, but in August 2021, the social giant was fine with extremist groups like the Taliban taking over Afghan social media accounts.11 Twenty-four hours later, though, Reuters12 reported Facebook had a ban on the Taliban posting on the social media platform. According to vice president of content policy Monika Bickert:13
“They will not be allowed while they are prescribed by the U.S. law and even if they were not prescribed by U.S. law, we would have to do a policy analysis on whether or not they nevertheless violate our dangerous organizations policy.”
Bickert is referring to the fact that the U.S. has soft-pedaled their stance on the group as they are not on the U.S. State Department’s list of Foreign Terrorist Organizations.14 Since the U.S. has not classified them as terrorists, they can enter negotiations15 with a group whose actions historically have been less than trustworthy.16,17,18
Facebook’s definition of extremist ideas apparently conforms to the ideologies of the World Economic Forum (WEF), of which Mark Zuckerberg, co-founder and CEO of Facebook, is a member.19
For example, while some consider a guaranteed basic income paid by the government to all citizens as radical and dystopian, according to a charismatic presentation Zuckerberg made during a commencement speech at Harvard,20 moving the economic platform of the world to universal basic income is not an extremist move.
Instead, it’s something to be explored and tested. As reported by the WEF, Zuckerberg explained that “too few people had the opportunity to try out new ideas — like building his world-conquering platform.”21 This is in line with the WEF’s mission to reinvent the future22 by resetting the global economic platform.23
Facebook Activities Called to Question in Early 2019
In late 2018, PBS’s “Frontline” released a two-part film called “The Facebook Dilemma,”24,25 in which James Jacoby investigated the influence the social media giant had over the democracy of nations, and the lack of privacy parameters that allowed for tens of millions of users’ data to be siphoned and used to influence U.S. elections.
During 2019 Bloomberg26 reported Facebook was transcribing bits of audio they had recorded from users’ phones. This explained how many were seeing targeted ads after just speaking about a product or service out loud. Further research revealed even more disturbingly, Android apps were taking screen shots of your smartphone and sending the information to third parties.27
According to The Guardian,28 in 2018 Facebook had 40 journalists who worked as fact checkers located across the globe. They were split in their opinion about their fact-checking relationship with Facebook. The Guardian quoted one who said:29
“Why should we trust Facebook when it’s pushing the same rumors that its own fact checkers are calling fake news? It’s worth asking how do they treat stories about George Soros on the platform knowing they specifically pay people to try to link political enemies to him? Working with Facebook makes us look bad.”
Some journalists spoke with a reporter from The Guardian, who said they told him,30 “Facebook’s hiring of a PR firm that used an antisemitic narrative to discredit critics — fueling the same kind of propaganda fact checkers regularly debunk — should be a deal-breaker.”
The allegations into Facebook's PR activities came after the European Parliament called for a privacy audit when it was revealed that Facebook allowed Cambridge Analytica to misuse 87 million users’ data to influence election results.31 The breach cost Facebook a mere $643,000 for the role it played, which they paid to the U.K.'s Information Commissioner's office.
Facebook's reported revenue for the first quarter in 2021 was $26.17 billion, up 48%, due in part from higher-priced advertising.32 Although the fine was a drop in the bucket when compared against Facebook's revenue, it was the maximum possible penalty that could be imposed under the Data Protection Act 1998. Under the new laws passed in 2018, the maximum fine could have been $22 million.33
The reporter from The Guardian wrote that one of the fact checkers, Brooke Binkowski, shared how Facebook influenced their work, sometimes to protect their advertisers, writing:34
“... it appeared that Facebook was pushing reporters to prioritize debunking misinformation that affected Facebook advertisers, which she thought crossed a line: 'You’re not doing journalism any more. You’re doing propaganda.'”
This is inline with current activities, since extremist content that shares preparedness, self-reliance, and evidence-based data about viral spread, masking or shot programs may have an impact on the push toward the “Great Reset.”
Facebook's Prepandemic Campaign Against Vaccine Information
Facebook's campaign against people sharing information about vaccination programs had grown in strength even before the COVID-19 genetic therapy shot program. As I reported in early 2019, it was likely driven to protect the interests of their pharmaceutical advertisers.35,36,37
While many believe vaccination programs are not lucrative, consider Pfizer's Prevnar 13 vaccine, which is supposed to protect against common strains of pneumonia and made three times more money than Viagra in 2015.38
The rising profits from Prevnar 13 in 2015 were thanks to the U.S. government’s recommendation to start using it in adults over 65, and not just in children.39 As noted in the Financial Times,40 “… the success of Prevnar shows [vaccines] can be as lucrative as any drug.” So, if you have forums on Facebook sharing true experiences about vaccine side effects, you can see why Pfizer wouldn’t want those comments left there.
When you have a profitable business, you want to promote sustained growth. This means nurturing and protecting your products and services. That's normal in the world of business. What is not normal is enlisting the government to mandate the use of your product while simultaneously preventing sharing bad reviews that impact sales or force you to improve the safety or effectiveness of the product.
So, what was happening in the vaccine industry before 2020 has continued during the pandemic. The push to censor negative press about vaccines on Facebook has been outright shocking. The justification is that “misinformation” prevents people from making sound medical decisions.
It's the same justification being used by Facebook to label any information about the COVID vaccine41 as false or cautions people planting their own gardens against “extremist thoughts,” while offering “confidential support.”42
Government Asking Social Media to Ban Research
Christina Parks, Ph.D., has her degree in cellular and molecular biology. In this short video she testifies before the Michigan House on Bill 4471, which seeks to prohibit vaccinations as a condition of employment in Michigan. You likely have read or heard the information she shares about COVID, flu and DTap vaccines if you’ve been reading my newsletter.
Yet, the science she's quoting is the very information that Facebook, and the U.S. government would like to ban from social media sites. To manipulate and influence your behavior, it is essential that you do not understand the science behind viral pathogens and the vaccines that hope to control those infections — and that means stopping you from learning scientific truths by any means possible.
July 16, 2021, during a White House briefing43 press secretary Jen Psaki admitted that the Biden Administration is alerting social media companies to posts and accounts that the White House believes is peddling “misinformation” about COVID injections. This is illegal and a violation of First Amendment rights. During the briefing she cited the “Disinformation Dozen” report released by the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH).44,45
The report claims that 65% of anti-vaccine content on Facebook and Twitter comes from 12 individuals, including me. After this “disinformation” report was virally spread, the truth was revealed in an August 18, 2021, report from Bickert at Facebook, setting the record straight, and in the process demolished the CCDH’s claims. The report revealed:46
“In fact, these 12 people are responsible for about just 0.05% of all views of vaccine-related content on Facebook. This includes all vaccine-related posts they’ve shared, whether true or false, as well as URLs associated with these people.”
As the image on Reddit47 aptly demonstrates, Facebook now promotes the idea that growing food and buying food from farmers may make you “too prepared.” They will warn your friends they have been exposed to extremist ideas and can receive confidential support to ensure they don’t follow suit.

Political Commentator Kim Iversen Unpacks ‘Alarming and Shocking’ COVID Data From Israel
Political talk show host Kim Iversen, on a segment of the Kim Iversen Show Wednesday, called the latest COVID data coming out of Israel “alarming and shocking.”
Iversen reminded viewers that Israel was nearly fully vaccinated by February, after striking a deal with Pfizer to make its citizens “essentially … a giant study group.”
“They have very high vaccination rates in the country,” Iversen said. “Kids are still not vaccinated. There are some super ultra-Orthodox holdouts, but otherwise everybody in Israel banded together and they took the Pfizer vaccine — two doses.”
But by summer, Iversen said, Israel health officials determined the vaccine had worn off. “They saw skyrocketing numbers of cases, even after they’d hit this so-called herd immunity threshold of 70%.”
At first, Iversen said, it looked as though the vaccines might at least be protecting against more severe symptoms, because for the most part, only the unvaccinated were having to be hospitalized.
“But then as time went on … the hospitals started to fill up with fully vaccinated people,” Iversen said, “and they saw more and more cases among the fully vaccinated, and more and more of them becoming very severe to the point where the majority of their cases in the hospitals and in the ICU and those dying were fully vaccinated people.”
Iversen has been tracking data in multiple countries besides Israel, including Iceland, Chile, Seychelles, Uruguay and others.
“I have a whole list of countries that I’ve been monitoring on this,” she said. “And it was really clear early on that the vaccine was not stopping the spread, but it did seem to keep people out of the hospital for a period of time.”
But then Israel found the vaccine was wearing off — so they told everybody they would need a third, booster shot, “in order to participate in society,” Iversen said.
That seemed to work for awhile — but now cases are rising again.
“I don’t know what to make of that, “Iversen said. “And I’m not going to speculate. I’m just going to share the data and I’m going to keep watching that data. And we’re going to see what happens. I mean, at this point, that’s all we can do. All we can do is see what happens now.”

"Russiagate In A Nutshell": Glenn Greenwald Breaks Down Significance Of Expected Indictment Against Hillary Clinton Lawyer
Special counsel John Durham is reportedly seeking a grand jury indictment against to indict an attorney representing Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign after he allegedly peddled a fake story in 2016 that the Trump campaign was using a secret server to communicate with a Russian bank - a lie promoted by Hillary Clinton herself.
According to the Washington Post, Michael Sussmann, a cybersecurity lawyer and partner at Perkins Coie, pushed the theory that computer scientists had discovered secret server connections between Trump and Alfa Bank - an allegation which was then amplified through left-wing media chambers as part of their ongoing full-court press against Trump.
Breaking down the indictment is journalist and attorney Glenn Greenwald.
The scam that Trump was using a secret server to communicate with a Russian bank was promoted by Hillary herself, and touted by media outlets led by @Slate. Like so much that comprised Russiagate, it was a total fraud concocted by the DNC & media allies:https://t.co/mwKa2REj5f

New Study Finds Mask Mandate Failed to Reduce COVID Deaths, Hospitalizations, or Cases
This article was originally published by Matt Agorist at The Free Thought Project.
A new study published in The Southern Medical Journal (SMJ) found that a county-wide mask order in Bexar County, Texas, did not lead to a reduction in COVID-19 hospitalization rates or deaths.
The study, which was peer-reviewed, analyzed data before and after mandates were imposed at both the state level (July 3, 2020) and in Bexar County (July 5, 2020), Texas’s fourth-largest county.
“We defined the control period as June 2 to July 2 and the post mask order period as July 8, 2020–August 12, 2020, with a 5-day gap to account for the median incubation period for cases; longer periods of 7 and 10 days were used for hospitalization and ICU admission/death, respectively,” the study authors wrote. “Data were reported on a per-100,000 population basis using respective US Census Bureau–reported populations.”
Authors of the study, which was reviewed by the US Army Institute of Surgical Research, analyzed the daily average number of COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations, ICU visits, patients on ventilators, and deaths, and concluded the policy did not reduce any of these metrics.
“All of the measured outcomes were higher on average in the post mask period as were covariables included in the adjusted model,” the researchers said. “There was no reduction in per-population daily mortality, hospital bed, ICU bed, or ventilator occupancy of COVID-19-positive patients attributable to the implementation of a mask-wearing mandate.”

Science of Masks Uncertain?
The SMJ research results come four months after the CDC published a large-scale study that found there was no statistically significant difference in COVID spread among children in schools where masks were optional compared to schools where masks were required.
That study analyzed roughly 90,000 elementary school students in 169 schools in Georgia in November and December 2020.
Other studies, however, have found masks reduce the spread of COVID-19, including a large-scale analysis from Bangladesh currently in preprint and under peer review at the journal Science.
“We now have evidence from a randomized, controlled trial that mask promotion increases the use of face coverings and prevents the spread of COVID-19,” said Stephen Luby, a professor of medicine at Stanford and co-author of the study.
Others, however, contest this conclusion.
“The Bangladesh mask study does not show a statistically significant difference in the efficacy of cloth masks vs surgical masks,” Harvard epidemiologist Martin Kulldorff recently observed. “Based on the confidence intervals, both could be around 0% or both could be around 20%.”

— Martin Kulldorff (@MartinKulldorff) September 8, 2021
A recent New York magazine article said conflicting research on mask mandates, combined with the absence of outbreaks in Europeans schools that do not require children to wear masks, suggests the science on masks “remains uncertain.”
Follow the Science?
In light of the unclear efficacy of masks and mask mandates as a mitigation to slow the spread of COVID-19, many would argue it seems both unscientific and unhelpful to compel people to wear masks. (People, of course, are free to wear face coverings if they wish.)
This, perhaps, is why many people are beginning to resist measures that require them to wear face coverings to attend local gatherings and public meetings.
— Carmen Krebs (@CarmenKrebs5) September 8, 2021
However, fewer may realize that mask mandates fall out of the purview of science even if research concluded they were effective at reducing the spread of COVID-19.
As the economist Ludwig von Mises (1881-1973) once observed, in the modern world science has long been invoked by the state to coerce and dictate the actions of individuals.
“The planners pretend that their plans are scientific and that there cannot be disagreement with regard to them among well-intentioned and decent people,” Mises wrote in his 1947 essay “Planned Chaos.”
Science, however, cannot answer moral questions or provide answers in the realm of subjective value judgments. It cannot tell us what we should do or what we must do.
“[T]here is no such thing as a scientific ought,” Mises wrote, echoing a famous argument by the philosopher David Hume. “Science is competent to establish what is.”
Much of the debate surrounding COVID-19 stems from the fact that public health officials have overstepped the boundaries of science. Instead of making public health recommendations based on scientific evidence, the state has begun to use the power of the law to coerce individuals into actions.
The results have been disastrous—and frightening.
Masks mandates, lockdowns, and other state-enforced “non-pharmaceutical interventions” may very well reduce the spread of COVID-19—though an abundance of scientific evidence suggests they do not do so effectively and come with unintended consequences, some of which are dangerous and deadly.
But don’t call these interventions “science.” As Mises rightly understood, there’s no such thing as a scientific ought.

Study: Half of 'COVID hospitalizations' were for mild or non-COVID cases
(U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 3rd Class Jake Greenberg)
A newly released study reported by the left-leaning magazine the Atlantic found that nearly half of the patients hospitalized for COVID-19 in 2021 may not have been admitted for the virus or had mild symptoms or were asymptomatic.
The researchers from Harvard Medical School, Tufts Medical Center and the Veterans Affairs Healthcare System examined electronic records for nearly 50,000 COVID hospital admissions at more than 100 VA hospitals nationwide, said the Federalist in a report on the article.
The findings have significant public-policy implications affecting entities such as schools and businesses, noted one of the study's co-authors, Dr. Shira Doron.
"As we look to shift from cases to hospitalizations as a metric to drive policy and assess level of risk to a community or state or country, we should refine the definition of hospitalization," she said.
"Those patients who are there with, rather than from, COVID don’t belong in the metric."
The Atlantic author, David Zweig, explained that the researchers "checked to see whether each patient required supplemental oxygen or had a blood oxygen level below 94 percent." If either condition was met, the researchers classified the patient as having moderate to severe disease. Otherwise the case was considered mild or asymptomatic.
The study found that from mid-January through the end of June 2021, 48% of the hospitalized patients showing up on COVID-data dashboards may have been admitted for another reason entirely. Or they had only a mild presentation of disease.
Zweig wrote that the study "suggests that COVID hospitalization tallies can't be taken as a simple measure of the prevalence of severe or even moderate disease, because they might inflate the true numbers by a factor of two."
Earlier this month, Zweig wrote an article for The Atlantic presenting evidence that school children should not be required to wear a mask. His piece prompted angry Twitter users who didn't expect such reporting from the magazine to flag it for misinformation and call for a retraction.

NICKI MINAJ: ‘Open Your F**king Eyes’ to COVID Censorship, Twitter Ban is ‘Making Me Think’ That ‘There’s Something Bigger’ Going On
After being temporarily suspended from Twitter for questioning the COVID vaccine, pop star Nicki Minaj encouraged Americans to “open your f**king eyes” to the censorship currently happening in the West, adding that her ban made her think that “there’s something bigger” going on.
Minaj, the Trinidadian-born pop star, had made global news in recent days, for tweeting in support of medical freedom, explaining that someone she knows became “impotent” after taking one of the controversial COVID vaccines and then urging her followers to pray and weigh the benefits of getting vaccinated. In response, globalist media outlets became enraged at the star, with only Tucker Carlson and other pro-freedom outlets defending her. On Wednesday evening, Minaj even tweeted out a clip of Carlson defending her, causing an even greater backlash from pro-vaccine defenders.
— Nicki Minaj (@NICKIMINAJ) September 15, 2021
Shortly after posting the clip from Carlson’s show defending her tweets on the COVID vaccine, Minaj was temporarily suspended from Twitter. In a post to Instagram Stories, Minaj said that just as she was about to post a poll on the site, she realised that she had been put in “Twitter jail,” because “they didn’t like what I was saying over there.” In an email to National File, Twitter claimed that there had been no “enforcement action” taken on her account, casting confusion as to why Minaj was not able to post.
Minaj proceeded to go live on Instagram, slamming the censorship from Twitter just for asking questions about the COVID vaccine. “You can’t speak for the fear of the mob attacking you,” Minaj said, saying it should give people “chills up and down your f**king spine,” comparing what happened to the oppression of Christians across the world and other authoritarian regimes:
You should be able to ask questions about anything you’re putting inside your body. We ask a bunch of questions about the most simple things… But you can’t just innocently ask a question about something going in your body? I remember going to China and they were telling us that you can’t speak out against the people in power there. I remember all of us thinking, oh okay, well we understand and we respect the laws here, and that it’s so different where we live… Don’t y’all see that we are now living in that time, where people will turn their back on you… People will isolate you if you simply speak and ask a question.
In what may not be a surprise to some, Minaj added that many other musical artists feel the same way as her, “but they’re afraid to speak up” for fear of the same backlash happening to them. “I will never use Twitter again,” she added, noting that her ban from Twitter was making her think “that there’s something bigger” happening with censorship in general around the COVID vaccine:
I kept on seeing all these people with all these conspiracy theories I was like, oh what, please. But what in the world scared y’all that much that made you disable my f**king Twitter? I have not put out anything that I said was a fact about anything. I simply said we should be able to ask questions and speak. It’s scary when they start telling you that you can’t ask questions about anything… Listen to me. Please. Open your fucking eyes. Open your eyes! That’s all.

Major nation credits maligned 'horse dewormer' for dramatic victory over COVID
(Photo by Joe Kovacs)
The FDA-approved drug that has been disingenuously maligned by establishment health officials and media as "horse dewormer" is being touted by India's largest state as the key to quashing COVID-19.
The government of Uttar Pradesh, which has a population of more than 240 million, said Friday that 33 of its districts are "COVID-free" and the state has a total of only 199 active cases, the Hindustan Times reported.
The state said the recovery rate for COVID-19 has improved to 98.7%.
The Indian Express reported in May, as the Gateway Pundit noted, that Uttar Pradesh was the first state in India to introduce large-scale prophylactic and therapeutic use of ivermectin.
Establishment media's recent mendacious portrayal of people who treat COVID-19 with ivermectin as ignorant rednecks overdosing on horse dewormer persisted despite several embarrassing corrections to widely cited stories and the CDC's recommendation that the FDA-approved drug be given to most refugees who enter the United States.
The CDC's recommendation of ivermectin, which was touted as a "wonder drug" in the Journal of Antibiotics, is for the treatment and prevention of intestinal parasites. But the drug – whose inventors were awarded a Nobel Prize – was shown in both in-vitro and in-vivo studies long before the COVID-19 pandemic to have strong antiviral as well as antiparasitic properties. At least 44 peer-reviewed studies, 31 randomized controlled trials and real-world experience indicate it is a safe and effective treatment for COVID-19.
'To contain the impact of pandemic'
In May and June 2020, ivermectin was administered to all respiratory care professionals on an experimental basis in the Uttar Pradesh district of Agra. A team in the district led by Dr. Anshul Pareek "observed that none of them developed COVID-19 despite being in daily contact with patients who had tested positive for the virus."
The state government then sanctioned the use of ivermectin as a prophylactic, or preventative, for all the contacts of COVID patients and later for patients.
"Despite being the state with the largest population base and a high population density, we have maintained a relatively low positivity rate and cases per million of population," said Pareek.
In August, the Uttar Pradesh government issued a notification advising doctors to take 12 mg tablets of Ivermectin "to contain the impact of pandemic.
"This medicine is quite effective in protecting from COVID-19. Therefore, we appeal each and every citizen to have this tablet," the government said.
The Gateway Pundit noted that the tiny southern Indian state of Kerala, which has been largely dependent on vaccines, seen a significant increase in COVID-19 cases.
Kerala included ivermectin in the state's COVID treatment guideline in April but restricted its use to severe cases or those with associated disease, meaning it was reserved as a late treatment, if used at all.
Kerala abandoned ivermectin use altogether on Aug. 5.
Overall in India, only 5.8% of the population has been vaccinated.

News station gets flooded with vaccine horror stories
A Detroit TV news reporter who was seeking stories of loved ones who died of COVID-19 after refusing to be vaccinated got a surprise when the station's Facebook page was flooded with stories of loved ones who were injured or died after getting the jab.
ABC affiliate WXYZ-TV in Detroit had received more than 39,000 angry and often heartbreaking responses as of noon Monday after posting the request Friday, reported the World Tribune.
Virtually every Facebook string contains a firsthand report by people whose family members are grieving the loss of loved ones, the World Tribune said.
There was a grieving daughter and a would-be grandmother, and many reports of heart attacks and strokes.
Missing, the World Tribune said, are reports of people who died after refusing the vaccine.

COVID Propaganda Roundup: The ‘Safe and Effective’ Narrative Implodes
The latest updates on the “new normal” – chronicling the lies, distortions, and abuses by the ruling class.
Gaslighting 101: CDC, Merriam-Webster Quietly Changed Definition of ‘Vaccine’ Overnight in 2021
“It’s a beautiful thing, the destruction of words.”
-1984
Just as the Animal Farm pigs repainted the 7 Animal Commandments on the barn wall in the dead of night to suit their interests, so the social engineers did in January 2021 with the official definition of “vaccine.”
CDC’s old “vaccine” definition:
“a product that stimulates a person’s immune system to produce immunity to a specific disease”
CDC’s new “vaccine” defiinition:
“a preparation that is used to stimulate the body’s immune response against diseases”
Likewise, Merriam-Webster’s old “vaccine” definition:
“a preparation of killed microorganisms, living attenuated organisms, or living fully virulent organisms that is administered to produce or artificially increase immunity to a particular disease”
Merriam-Webster’s new “vaccine” definition:
“a preparation that is administered (as by injection) to stimulate the body’s immune response against a specific infectious disease”
CDC: mRNA Vaxx Efficacy in the US Down to 2/3 and Dropping
Via LiveScience:
“The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)… found that the vaccines’ effectiveness against COVID-19 infections declined from 91% prior to the delta variant’s emergence to 66% after the rise of the delta variant in the summer.”
Israel: Among Most-Vaxxed Nations Now Has One of World’s Highest Infections Rates
Via Science.org:
“Israel has among the world’s highest levels of vaccination for COVID-19, with 78% of those 12 and older fully vaccinated, the vast majority with the Pfizer vaccine. Yet the country is now logging one of the world’s highest infection rates, with nearly 650 new cases daily per million people. More than half are in fully vaccinated people.”
Pfizer Vaxx Down to ‘16% Efficacy Against Symptomatic Infection’ in Israel
Via CNBC:
“Data published by Israel in July, showed that the Pfizer vaccine was just 16% effective against symptomatic infection for those individuals who received two doses in January.”
Japanese Regulators Discover ‘Metal Particles’ in Moderna Vaccines, Halt Distribution
“Japan on Thursday suspended the use of 1.63 million doses shipped to 863 vaccination centres nationwide, more than a week after the domestic distributor, Takeda Pharmaceutical (4502.T), received reports of contaminants in some vials.
The contaminant found in a batch delivered to Japan is believed to be a metallic particle, Japanese public broadcaster NHK reported.”
Respect the Science: ‘Having SARS-CoV-2 Once Confers Much Greater Immunity Than a Vaccine’
COVID Warlord Fauci’s mass-Stockholm Syndrome captives have some new science-based cognitive dissonance to work through.
Via Science.org:
“The natural immune protection that develops after a SARS-CoV-2 infection offers considerably more of a shield against the Delta variant of the pandemic coronavirus than two doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, according to a large Israeli study that some scientists wish came with a ‘Don’t try this at home’ label,’ Science reported Thursday… The newly released data show people who once had a SARS-CoV-2 infection were much less likely than vaccinated people to get Delta, develop symptoms from it, or become hospitalized with serious COVID-19.”
Why would scientists wish for a warning label on legitimate research? They are openly acknowledging that their pro-vaxx narrative should trump data that undermines it.
‘Breakthrough’ Infection Risk for Vaxxed 13 Times Higher Compared to Natural Immunity From Previous COVID Infection
Via Yale-funded medRxiv:
“SARS-CoV-2-naïve vaccinees had a 13.06-fold (95% CI, 8.08 to 21.11) increased risk for breakthrough infection with the Delta variant compared to those previously infected, when the first event (infection or vaccination) occurred during January and February of 2021. The increased risk was significant (P<0.001) for symptomatic disease as well.”
Vaccinated Carry 251 Times More Viral Load than Unvaccinated
Via The Lancet:
“Viral loads of breakthrough Delta variant infection cases were 251 times higher than those of cases infected with old strains detected between March-April 2020.”
Via CBS:
“Breakthrough Delta variant infections are associated with high viral loads, prolonged PCR positivity, and low levels of vaccine-induced neutralizing antibodies.”
Research: ‘Imperfect Vaccination Can Enhance the Transmission of Highly Virulent Pathogens’
Via PLOS Biology:
“Vaccines that keep hosts alive but still allow transmission could thus allow very virulent strains to circulate in a population… anti-disease vaccines that do not prevent transmission can create conditions that promote the emergence of pathogen strains that cause more severe disease.”
What this means: when virulent new variants emerge, they will likely come not from the unvaxxed but from the vaccinated who are fertile breeding grounds/reservoirs for new strains.
What Happened to ‘Lasting Immunity’?
In June 2021, via The New York Times:
In late August 2021, via British Medical Journal:
Husband Has Vaxx-Induced Stroke, Mother Gives Shot to Kid Anyway
Many, if not the majority, of fully-domesticated COVID slaves are simply too far gone to be saved.
Exhibit A, via SF Chronicle:
Spectator Columnist Asks if She Is ‘Allowed’ to Talk About Vaccine Side Effects
Via The Spectator:
“Nobody wants to be thought of as hysterical. Emotional. A tad neurotic. So instead these conversations are going on discreetly, on WhatsApp chats, on internet threads, in hushed tones. Who wants to be accused of being a dreaded ‘anti-vaxxer’?”
What Is Stockholm Syndrome?
Via Sharie Stines, PsyD:
“Stockholm syndrome is a psychological condition that occurs when a victim of abuse identifies and attaches, or bonds, positively with their abuser. This syndrome was originally observed when hostages who were kidnapped not only bonded with their kidnappers, but also fell in love with them.”
Half of Warlord Fauci’s Own NIH Staff Won’t Take the ‘Vaccine’
In a news bit that deserved far more attention than it got in the corporate press (meaning virtually none), Anthony Fauci admitted in Congressional testimony that roughly half of his own NIH staff haven’t taken their “safe and effective” shots.
Also:
Enormous Percentages of Healthcare Workers Refuse ‘Vaccines’
Via New York Times:
“Among the nation’s 50 largest hospitals, one in three workers who had direct contact with patients had not received a single dose of a vaccine.”
Should we trust these experts – half of the NIH staff and a third of healthcare providers at major hospitals – or just the ones handpicked by the corporate media to push the “safe and effective” narrative on CNN?

Nothing Is Real: A Visual Journey Through Market Absurdity
Nothing Is Real: A Visual Journey Through Market Absurdity
Authored by Matthew Piepenburg via GoldSwitzerland.com,
When it comes to modern markets, risk assets and the now normalized yet twisted tango of fiscal and monetary policy gone wild, it’s safe (rather than sensational) to simply confess that nothing is real.
As I recently watched BTC drop by 16% in one hour from $50K to $43K, only to reach back up to $46K in 20 minutes, my 20+ years of Wall Street experience watched with bemused yet experienced awe at what amounted to just another day of leverage, emotion and institutionalized front-running as the big money whales in crypto pulled off yet another media and SEC-ignored pump-dump-and-pump trade.
In short, the unreal has simply become business as usual.
Real Education vs. Surreal Facts
By 1997, I had graduated from a steady, iconic and expensive list of higher educational institutions which emphasized critical thinking, objective data, historical context and basic math.
But had I told a single professor back then that one day we’d see the simultaneous occurrence of Treasury Yields at 1.35%, and
….an “official” YoY CPI (inflation) growth rate of 5.4%, and
…an S&P reaching all-time highs above 4000,
…despite negative annual GDP rates, and
… consumer sentiment tanking,
… it’s likely they’d ask me to return my diplomas.
Why?
Because everything I (and all the rest of us) had been taught long ago was that rising risk assets reflect healthy economic growth, vigorous natural demand and a robust confidence in continued productivity and hence free-market price discovery.
That, at least, was the “reality” that nine years of secondary (post high-school) education gave me before I began my first toe-dip into the public exchanges (i.e., asset bubbles) of 1999.
Experience vs. Theory
What did I learn after watching the NASDAQ rise to the moon in 2000 before puking by greater than 80% in 2003, and a sub-prime bubble that had investors giddy in 2006 yet on their knees by the autumn of 2008, or far more recently, a decade+ bull market hitting needle-peak highs on the backs $28T in national debt and a Fed balance sheet that had bloated from $800 billion in 2000 to over $7 trillion by 2020?
The answer is simple: Nothing I learned in school was “real” and nothing about our current moment in time has even the slightest resemblance to anything remotely characterized as natural, free-market or fair-price-driven.
Nothing. Not even close.
Instead, we live in a dystopian world of engineered markets, centralized economies and dis-information in which extreme money creation by 5 central banks have increased their balance sheets by 12X like this
…leading to un-natural (i.e., “accommodated”) credit markets in which sovereign bonds offer negative (and technically defaulting) yields like this
…which makes the cost of debt free for a select minority, allowing corporations and their grossly advantaged and over-paid executives to live (and bloat) off their own stock buy-backs at levels this
…which directly results in central-bank-created risk asset bubbles like this
…in which greater than 86% of that market wealth is enjoyed by just the top 10% of the population, leading to wealth disparity at record levels like this
…while the self-serving central bankers like this...
…who directly caused this historical distortion of capitalism, congratulate themselves on hubris-saturated book tours like this
… or subsequently become the directors of Treasury Departments like this.
Mass Media, Mass (and Deliberate) Hysteria
Meanwhile, a feckless media owned by just a handful of corporate boards with direct ties to governments, tech billionaires, bad Davos skiers and Wall Street, and which more resemble the “nothing is real” propaganda profiles of Joseph Goebbels and Pravda than the “truth to power” stewards of Woodward and Bernstein, continue to headline tweets from crypto front-runners likeMusk or fear-porn mask mandates for children from a locked-down Sydney to a head-down New York.
All this, despite the confirmed science that children present near zero risk of serious illness from a global flu whose case fatality rates are less than ½ of 1 percent.
Crazy.
But as every tyrannical, autocratic and corrupt regime has always perfectly understood, when the truth is a threat, feed the masses fear, anger and lies instead.
This is history 101 for anyone who reads a book rather than tweet.
But rather than rage against the architects of so much distortion of honesty, math, science and social contracts, the media and policy makers distract the masses with bread, circus, fear and anger, stoking the fires of racial division and invisible death from above, pointing their woke and increasingly sanctimonious fingers at everything from a rapidly defunded police force to the “criminally selfish unvaccinated” who apparently live in caves and don’t believe in science or their fellow man.
Meanwhile, that oxymoron otherwise known as “modern culture” (rich in opinions but poor in questioning or earning them) cancels everything from Little House on the Prairie and Dr. Seuss to Robert E. Lee’s statue in Richmond, Virginia.
Sadly, however, if the broke and legitimately angry masses in the new feudalism now somehow passing for capitalism or constitutional democracy (at least the kind I studied in law school) were informed rather than just frustrated and manipulated, then instead of blaming these angry and easy-to-denounce faces
…they could simply blame the smug and harder to justify faces of anti-heroes like this
…or this
…or this:
Returning to the Nonsense
For now, the pablum and doublespeak from these so-called experts continues to float like jetsam from the polluted currents flowing out of an increasingly discredited FOMC as the markets pretend to brace themselves for a potential “tapering” of the otherwise blatant money addiction (and counterfeiting) still masquerading as policy support.
Angry crowds, however, typically have no time for hard policy facts, economic history or founding father ideals; instead, they are educated by 50 word-count tweets and the latest celebrity wisdom or virtue-signaled headline. It is easier to live as though nothing is real
Unknown to many in those angry crowds gathering around Robert E. Lee or Dr Seuss, for example, the Atlanta Fed just cut its q3 GDP forecast by 50% in matter of days.
From where I sit in terms of both history and economics (at least until these subjects are equally “canceled” from the modern curriculum), falling GDP as indicated above effects all our lives far more than falling statues or controversial children’s books.
But as we’ve written so many times, the powers-that-be are clever little foxes, and even crashing GDP and skyrocketing debt, which are objectively time-proven cancers for society, can be a boon for their false narrative of governmental or central bank “guidance,” which is nothing more than increasing social control hiding behind a Covid mask.
Debt to GDP: The New Distortion
After all, one way to address the appalling 135% debt to GDP ratio in the U.S. is to simply reduce the productivity component rather than debt component of the ratio, akin to telling a man with only one arm that his shirts will fit better if we remove the remaining arm.
A “bad” debt to GDP figure is just veiled anchoring for more QE “stimulus” and more ludicrous fiscal spending of money which governments don’t in fact have but which a mouse-click at the Eccles Building can produce in seconds.
In simple speak, this latest GDP “bad news” looks like an open as well as carefully planned piece of “good news” for a QE-addicted, fully Fed-supported and ultimately rigged to fail stock bubble.
The Pointless Taper Debate
As for Fed tapering, even the hawks at that same Atlanta Fed can’t keep their message or ethics straight for more than a week.
Nothing at all shocking or new there…
Another Fed Two-Step
Back in August (8/27), for example, Atlanta Fed President, Raphael Bostic, bravely declared: “Let’s start the taper and let’s do it quickly.”
But fast forward just a few days to September 2, and that same Fed President, like so many other fork-tongued masters of doublespeak within the FOMC, back peddled with fabulous elan, declaring instead that “we’re going to let the economy continue to run until we see signs of inflation.”
The amount of “duplicitous dumb” within this single sentence defies both belief and this report’s word count, but for simplicity’s sake, and despite “signs of inflation” literally everywhere, Bostic’s latest semantic two-step translates to this: Don’t expect a “taper” of the free money spigot anytime soon.
Besides, and as we wrote last week, even if a “taper” in Fed QE were to occur, such hawkish optics won’t stop the Fed from dumping ever-more dovish liquidity into the system via clever little tricks up the sleeves of its Reverse Repo Program.
In short, the Standing Repo Facility (or SRF) is just QE by another clever acronym, so please: Don’t let the headlines or double-speak from above fool you.
Taper or no taper, the dollar in your wallet is about to drown under even more currency-killing liquidity from on high.
In short, nothing is real.
