So it might be a good idea to make the switch to decadence and enjoy a stoli bolli while you can, because I'm reliably informed that under Davosian rule, King Klaus will have the peasantry programed to want home-made, potato-peel vodka to go with their bug canapes. And you will be happy about it, apparently.

Well, I rarely comment on occurrences in my life but need to now..received a call at 11:00 last night that my dear friend died from a heart attack; age 55..this is third loss from a heart attack in the past 8 months I have had..the first was a very good friend who was somewhat overweight and rarely got checkups so I chalked his death up to his life choices; age 58..a couple of months later I lost another friend from a heart attack, he was not in bad shape and had a generally clean living; age 62..I am devastated from the latest news and even though I try to be objective of cause, I keep landing on a common denominator..all were vaccinated..I never expected at 60 years old that I would lose so many in such a short period of time..I certainly expect that in my later years..if Anthony Fauci were in front of me right now the sight would not be pretty

So sorry to hear this. All were way too young to have heart attacks, IMO. My friend just told me she had a heart attack 7 weeks after her booster. She’s 78 and had high cholesterol so it’s hard to connect to the jab. I know others who had strokes, heart attacks, serious and deadly “falls”, cancer resurgence, died in their sleep. All in the past year. They all can’t just be coincidences!

I felt the same anxiety about my sister (51) & my niece (19) who are both tripled vaxxed – when they participated in a 10k walk/run at Disney World a couple weekends ago. 😨

My sister & her family think I’m some nut job because I’ve been concerned about the mRNA vaccines from the start. I do not believe they’ve taken seriously any info I’ve attempted to share with them over the past year regarding the risks.

Instead, they have mostly cut me out of their lives. Ditto with my father, his wife, & a few friends. I am so sad over this.

Wow! I’d feel the same at a 10k! Many of us have felt the pain of being dissed and excluded since the toxxines were launched. In the end, I believe our concerns will be validated. However, many won’t acknowledge this since it means they’d have to blame themselves.

I'm so sorry about this. For those of us awake, it is hard not to see the connection with the jab, and at the same time even harder to convince others (if we can even bring ourselves to mention it). I lost my brother around Thanksgiving to kidney failure and severe heart disease that developed after fairly routine surgery, conditions of which there was no hint before. Then my sister-in-law, his widow, suffered a stroke which the doctors in the emergency room initially refused to recognize because she had no risk factors. I had tried to warn my brother about the jabs but he politely refused to listen to me or read anything I sent them. My sister-in-law on my husband's side just died of a massive cancer that appeared suddenly and killed her within a few months. She was completely on board with all the covid stuff and had not long before the cancer appeared had the booster. I'm afraid we are going to be seeing a lot of this in the next few years.

What we can observe from the data is that cancer and heart/vascular disease related deaths increased significantly in 2020-21. But the slope began to increase before vaccines were available. Several physicians I know have commented that the COVID extremes resulted in diversion of resources and deferred treatment for other conditions. One speculated that the dramatic decrease in screening resulting from mandates is a logical explanation for greater severity of outcomes (in plain language: more deaths because we're not finding it early enough to do anything useful). A consequence of poor risk management IMO.

For myself I can say my physical condition was adversely affected when the forced closure of gyms, bars and nightclubs. Between the three that's where I get most of my exercise ;-).

In addition, Covid infections themselves can cause vascular/heart damage. Much like the toxxines do.

Any flu increases risk for those with existing heart or vascular conditions as well as those with respiratory problems.

BTW this was the first red flag for me concerning the “vaccines”. My understanding is that they were designed assuming the spike was just a key to allow the virus to “open” and enter the cell. Little did the designers know that the spike is itself a major toxic player in the disease. And the mRNA was creating a spike factory in every vaxxed body! I’m only a layman, but that’s my interpretation of what I’ve read. And it set off alarm bells.

This is the first article I saw on the subject. I’m sure there are more. It’s how the wild spike protein damages the vascular system. Probably similar effect with the faux spike in the injectable product.

It will be interesting to see what Life Insurance companies have to say later this year…..

Expand full comment

Insurance companies are already reporting huge increases. Two months ago, the CEO of OneAmerica Insurance said “the increase in deaths represents “huge, huge numbers,” and that it’s not elderly people who are dying, but “primarily working-age people 18 to 64” who are the employees of companies that have group life insurance plans through OneAmerica.

“And what we saw just in third quarter, we’re seeing it continue into fourth quarter, is that death rates are up 40% over what they were pre-pandemic,” he said.

“Just to give you an idea of how bad that is, a three-sigma or a one-in-200-year catastrophe would be 10% increase over pre-pandemic,” he said. “So 40% is just unheard of.”

Whether you a skeptic on the Covid narrative doesn’t seem to correlate well with being a neocon. In fact, that is why the pivot from Covid to Russia make so much sense for politicians.

Something is definitely off with Berenson. At best he's just incapable of considering evidence and/or conclusions at odds with his preconceived notions. We've now seen three specific areas (Malone, Ivermectin, Ukraine) where he's shown he's completely unwilling to consider anything contrary to his initial knee-jerk opinions. It's a level of closed-minded arrogance coupled with snarky pontifications that just grates on people, just an utter inability to read the room. He's very likely on the spectrum (as are many), but most learn some social graces and coping skills by middle age. Apparently he has not.

He got it right on the vaccines, but in hindsight that was likely due to stubborn contrarianism rather than any dogged pursuit of the facts. It's gone to his head and made him even more insufferable.

Expand full comment

Rather than in the spectrum he is likely just an arrogant, over self promoting ass

Expand full comment

I subscribed to Berenson because he was willing to put in the time to track down data that contradicted the narrative. He would often exaggerate the conclusions, but the papers he would unearth would otherwise have been buried permanently. Also, I think his instinct that “virus is going to virus” was the correct framing from the beginning.

Expand full comment

Don't be so sure in your assessments of 'US weakness.' Certainly our present leadership is minor league, but the nation's technical strengths should not be underestimated.

While Russia is openly parading these new missiles for all the world to see, don't forget the accomplishments of, for instance, Kelly Johnson's Lockheed Skunk Works who among other things designed the P-51 in 90 days at the end of WWII. That was really too late to have much effect on that war, and it would soon be eclipsed by the advent of the jet fighter. Nonetheless, it was an amazing accomplishment and demonstration of American know-how.

But you say, that was 70 years ago, what about now? Good question. Some years ago the USAF retired its fleet of near-hypersonic SR-71 reconnaissance aircraft. Those in turn had replaced the venerable U-2, like the one in which Francis Gary Powers got shot down in 1960 over Russia (by an SA-2 missile). (Both Skunk Works products, BTW.) The SR-71 flew so fast and so high -- its actual capabilities are still classified to this day -- that it was immune to attack from the ground or air, and it could fly at will whenever and wherever it wanted. The Soviets could see it up there, but were powerless to do anything about it. And remember, the SR-71 operated secretly for many years before its existence was even acknowledged. (In its later days, it would be shown sometimes at airshows, I remember seeing one in the 1980s at Fairchild AFB near Spokane. There's one on static display at an aerospace museum near Portland today; if you're lucky (as I was) there might be a retired SR-71 flight officer on duty as a docent, explaining that still amazing aircraft.)

The lesson to be learned here is that the USAF would not have retired the SR-71, or shown it in public, until (likely many) years after its replacement was fully operational. From this point on, I am talking only about things that have been presumed or speculated, but are consistent with past US military history.

So what replaced the SR-71? The official story is spy satellites, but useful as those are, they have too many limitations that a manned, maneuverable system does not have. Those in the know believe that there is an advanced spy plane some call Aurora. This aircraft/spacecraft has capabilities that exceed the SR-71 by at least as much as the SR-71 exceeded the U-2, which is substantial. While the SR-71's top speed is still classified, there is some evidence that it was much, much higher than the claimed Mach 3 (about 2000 mph). Aurora then is likely able to fly in near space, from an isolated and top secret base somewhere in the middle of nowhere (SR-71s were based at Beale AFB near Sacramento, hardly in the middle of nowhere), and go anywhere anytime. It will no doubt implement the most advanced stealth technology, so it is essentially invisible. Where the SR-71 could be seen but not attacked, Aurora is essentially invisible.

It is also possible that such a platform could have some offensive capability. One never knows until one day, when Aurora is declassified. Now where would the technology for this come from? Well, the USAF has been doing lots of strange things out in the desert at Area 51 and now Area 52. Few people actually know what they are up to, though they've been out there for decades and clearly up to something that they don't want the general public to know about. Supposedly the F-117 stealth fighter was first flown out there, while it was still top secret.

Anyway the point of this is that we should not believe that the US military has been out-performed by the Russians or Chinese. They are doing things that (unlike Russian and Chinese PR) they won't talk about. There may, for example, be a fleet of hundreds of US Navy nuclear-powered mini-attack subs out there lurking in the depths, waiting to destroy enemy assets on a moment's notice with ultrafast seaborne/airborne torpedo/missiles. The US has the technology for this -- these mini-subs could easily be based in a small, unobtrusive facility in port somewhere with sail-in, sail-out secrecy. Nobody would know.

It's possible that the Russians and Chinese are all about propaganda, one of their strengths after all. That Chinese hypersonic glide missile or whatever they called it? It has to be launched from a Long March booster, IIRC roughly equivalent to a US Titan or Russian Proton -- a big, expensive rocket that takes quite a bit of time to prepare and launch. Hardly a serious weapon system, not to mention that it landed some 25 miles off target.

Russia and China are not standing still. But neither is the USA -- the difference is that the most advanced military systems of the US military are top secret. They are not putting on shows and bragging to everybody, they are doing it quietly. As has been their practice for 75 years now.

Expand full comment

As a kid in the 1950's I was living in the U.K. as my father was stationed there for a number of years with the USAF. As a navigator, he was involved in the U2/Gary Powers stuff and flew a lot of secret missions connected with the U2s. At that time, my mother had no idea what his various missions were about. He only told us a bit about it much much later, not long before he died in 1989. And even then he didn't tell us all the details, so yes, the military is always pretty top secret in certain things.

Even in the military, programs like these are on a 'strict need to know' basis. Many command officers are not aware of the true extent (and sometimes, even the existence) of the programs. That's the only way to keep things secret, and the US military has been doing this, successfully, for key programs now since the advent of the Cold War.

Expand full comment

Thanks, it wouldn't load any data for me earlier!

Expand full comment

Something to note about Sweden (where I'm from) is that any death where the virus was confirmed present at time of death, is entered as a Covid death, along with any other causes of death, so the same person may appear multiple times in the official mortality registry.

Say for instance someone dying of heart failure while also having liver cirrhosis, and while carrying the virus; that would be entered once in each category if the physician declaring the person dead thought it a significant contributor to death.

So looking in one registry will yield about 16 000 dead (virus present/suspected), while another will show about 8 900 (virus and infection confirmed as cause of death/significantly contributing factor) and yet another might show even fewer if the cause of death is put as Covid infection resulting in loss of life, with no known comorbidities.

So one really needs to dig into multiple files, databases and such from several agencies, and a lot of the information is classified for the public due to doctor/patient confidentiality, and if you have that kind of access you are only allowed to share information with formally appointed researchers.

Not to advocate drinking (or becoming a teetotaller) but making your own is very easy. I mean, ridiculously so if you don't live in apartment.

And here in Sweden, due to the state having the monopoly on selling alcohol, vodka /is/ much more expensive than gasoline. 25:-/L for gas, about 150:-/L for vodka (and then it's the cheap stuff that tastes as if you're gargling with turpentine).

As to converting liters and gallons, I gave up when the article I looked at started going on about "eight quarts to a gallon" and imperial gallons and liquid gallons vs. dry gallons.

There are So many HARMS from the covid regime. An increase of alcohol and drug abuse is one of the many.

Also I just spoke with a friend in the state I grew up in.

3 people I know from high school just dropped dead suddenly all previously healthy. Late 50’s.

i am just a little kitten, but i remember some anonymous guy claiming to be from moderna on 4chan saying that half the nanoparticles were destined for the liver and contained a mutant version of a cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor...

We stressed out people and triggered alcoholism! Yay! (Remember "excess deaths = Covid" crap research papers?)

No one could have forseen this outcome. No one. I bet the same thing hasn't happened with drug overdoses or smoking . . .

Vodka is good for cleaning. It is pure alcohol, safer than the poisonous Isopropyl alcohol sold in the drug store. I don't drink vodka (don't drink any alcohol or wine, beer, etc., but use the vodka for cleaning.) I buy the cheapest brand available.

I use it to clean my hummingbird feeders. After cleaning with vodka, and then rinsed with clean water, the feeders are well cleaned for the birds.

Timing wise, this is more attributable to the lockdowns than the shots. Excess deaths coincide almost 1 to 1 with the imposition of lockdowns & mass unemployment. The shots weren't available until late 2020...

Deaths are up significantly in 2021 vs 2020 for those from 15-70 yo.

Thanks your all cause mortality graph is exactly what I was looking for, nice post!!

Wrong. Look at world data, age stratified excess deaths. Old folks over 80 were the bulk of deaths from Covid in 2020 and excess deaths for 2021 track with vaccine rollout and are concentrated in young working age folks. Not that corp media in NATO countries report any of it but the truth is out there. https://www.euromomo.eu/graphs-and-maps

Ludwig can speak for himself but I think he's talking specifically about the plot Gato posted. It clearly shows the incidence of alcoholic liver deaths level increasing in mid-2020, well before the shots were rolled out. His comment is exactly correct. The vax may have exacerbated this in 2021 but was clearly not the initial impetus.

We are on the same side here but before denouncing someone as "Wrong" you might want to make sure the context is correct. We need to persuade people, not drive them away by shouting at them.

Also, just butting in here, liver damage from alcohol to the extent that it kills you isn't something you get from half a year to a year of drinking. The figures probably shows alcoholics getting an extra push hand from lockdowns and other high-stress stupidities and paying for it.

And (stealthily checking liver cirrhosis in the national health registry) Hepatitis B and C can factor into it, as can fatty liver disease. Seeing as how substance abuse generally reaches a stage of "pop anything to keep the DTs/withdrawal away", it shouldn't be unreasonable to assume that what we are seeing is a sort of "all of the above" aggravated by mandates and lockdowns.

Thank you for sharing. Love listening to Naomi Wolf and Edward Dowd. His comment … “we are a legion”

Im just going off the graph presented by egm. That shows excess deaths prior to the Vax, but coinciding with NPIs...

Three videos to watch:

Naomi Wolf explains Pfizer lab animal results shows fast migration from injection site to major organs of the body: https://rumble.com/vx5zn8-naomi-wolf-discovers-more-crimes-against-humanity-in-pfizer-study.html

Edward Dowd broke some of the news about insurance company numbers and funeral industry numbers showing MUCH higher deaths in 2021. He is working with actuarials behind the scenes, and they've broken open the CDC numbers and shows a "vietnam-level" event for millenials (18-49) in terms of deaths, and a WWII-level event for boomers in terms of death from the vaccines. He says Wall Street has woken up, and there will be some more major news coming out next week. https://rumble.com/vx58bw-edward-dowd-explains-how-thousands-of-people-have-died-from-covid-vaccines.html

Edward Dowd shares info disclosed from a German insurer (this was reported a week or so ago) https://rumble.com/vx41ro-edward-dowd-2.5-to-3-million-germans-have-been-injured-by-covid-vaccines.html

And get this... Republican legislators are looking to pass a bill to amend a current fund to take care of people who have suffered from adverse events! This feels like they're opening a liability shield with OUR tax dollars for vaccine companies that fraudulently foisted this on to us? And the FDA, Fauci and others are complicit in this! It's because so many of them have holdings in these companies, and receive fat donations from them as well. https://ussanews.com/senate-republicans-introduce-covid-19-vaccine-injury-bill/ The fund already exists, but they want to make it easier to draw from it, as only 79 claims have been paid out, while over 7000 have been filed.

The lipid nanoparticles concentrate in the liver with the resulting damage from spike protein. Liver damage causes scaring. So the jab could exacerbate an already damaged liver causing disease severe enough for diagnosis.

no doubt - big and growing drug abuse problem in US - but the chart takes off early 2020 - the early 2020 plandemic lockdowns couldn't have produced that in that timeframe - something else drove that - booze getting substituted for ocycontin?

I suspect we have some measurement bias in this chart, as liver cirrhosis takes more than 2 years to present, but...we can also note that science indicates that sugar is a significant cause of liver damage. We can theorize that "lock down" has increased both alcohol and sugar consumption. Also dramatic increases in watching Netflix and Prime Video as well as conventional "news" media - and there is a definite link between watching a lot of news media and accelerated brain death ;-).

Just wait until we start seeing "autoimmune hepatitis (K75.4)" outpacing "alcoholic liver disease (K70)".

Must have missed the NY Times story on this trend or maybe I'm just a fascist for thinking it might be important. Every life matters of course--we learned that when having lockdowns shoved down our throats in 2020--but I guess some more than others?

And to think that the once great stalwart of all things Vodka, Smirnoff, is now made by Diageo of Dublin!!! My semi alcoholic friend of many years ago had a riverboat in Zimbabwe (and that's way back) and he named the boat "Cirrhosis of the River!"

To be clear, is this saying two years prior, there were roughly ~35,000 deaths. While during covidiot times, the number of fatalities increased to somewhere approaching ~40,000 deaths due to cirrhous of the liver?

BTW: If you're not following Edward Dowd on GETTR, you need to be. He's been all over exposing this data in a fashion that is bound to get serious traction. He's a former star BlackRock investment fund manager who is educating Wall Street with the undeniable horrendous jab-related early death data:
