Covid is not the problem, Government is the problem. We have lived and died with respiratory viruses for many years without hysterics, worthless masks, and destroying everything with asinine lockdowns. Some get their flu shots, others opt out. This has never been a problem. Covid is comparable to the annual flu. Every year respiratory viruses take out some vulnerable people, vaccines or not. This will never change. Those who are agonizing over covid are really agonizing over the harm being done to them by corrupt bureaucracies, politicians, academia, so called experts, and the media. I'm 75 years old and do not fear covid. I choose to live in a place where I have more freedom than typical big city dwellers. I am a retired Ph.D. psychologist who specialized in trauma therapy. It sickens me to see the trauma being inflicted upon the USA by petty tyrants using covid as a weapon. If you must obsess, obsess over how you can work toward ending the tyranny being rapidly imposed upon a previously relatively free society. Today it's covid, tomorrow it will be something else. This will never end unless we put a stop to it.

So true! I obsess because I live in a city (San Francisco) where I need proof of vax to have coffee in my neighborhood cafe or to simply socialize with so-called friends.

Don’t waste your time or gas! I was just up in The Bay Area & Marin & Sonoma Counties last month. The energy of the place is OPPRESSIVE….there are a lot of Sheeple and even people who are for personal & medical freedoms have caved in to the oppressive energy as well. It’s very sad…I lived there in my mid to late 20’s & then again in my early 30s…went to college in Santa Cruz, so I know the Bay Area! I have no desire to return unless I absolutely have to!

I am sure you are right - but on Fillmore they deal drugs right outside the McDonald's all day long, you can see it through the glass wall. The cognitive dissonance of being refused a coffee for not being vaccinated twenty feet from visible, armed drug dealers - I feel like I would be like William Shatner describing space afterward!

The concern for public "health" and "safety" is such a joke here. Hundreds of poor souls have been living in squalor on the streets for years but somehow I am a threat to public health because I'm not vaccinated. Rats, human feces, lice....all good though as long as we're all masked and vaxxed.

Well the SF police let people steal shit all day long from all the local Walgreens & CVS as well as stealing high price handbags from store down in Union Square, and do nothing, so they won’t be hassling the folks conducting business outside of the McD’s in the Fillmore! I I bet business is up for those guys during these times! 😼

I feel your pain…was just up in the Bay Area in September. Visited an elderly aunt in The City & stayed up in Sebastopol on a rural property. Though Sonoma County is not as ‘restrictive’ as SF the WHOLE Bay Area, down through Santa Cruz feels very oppressive as well as the energy of the whole area feels the same. I live in SoCA down near the border. We are so much freer down here and our personal & medical freedom community is very active and growing bigger everyday! Who knew SoCA would be the hotbed of Liberty and Freedom in CA! (And you can forget LA, it too is as bad as SF! )

I was at lunch with two acquaintances visiting from LA and didn't connect the dots until halfway through - I asked them how they can deal with it and they started babbling about how it's so nice that things are open again! Then onto description of how kids love masks. Sadly I was not drinking.

I live in New York City. I am unvaccinated. I am 79 years old. Our Federal government supports vaccine mandates. Our governor states that "vaccines are from God" and she wants her apostles to spread the word and preach the gospel of vaccination. https://www.timesrecordnews.com/story/life/2021/10/16/ny-governor-god-gave-us-vaccine/8452042002/

She mandates that all health care workers and teachers must get vaccinated or be fired. No exemptions. However, the courts temporarily blocked this mandate. Our mayor has made an executive order that all indoor entertainment is banned from unvaccinated people. We are forbidden to attend sports events, movies, sports events, theater, restaurants, indoor gyms, indoor tennis courts. I am now unable to take weekly tennis lessons which I used to enjoy. He stated, "New York is a great city. But if you are unvaccinated, you don't deserve it." The mayor's executive order does not allow for medical or religious exemptions. He states that if he could, he would also ban access to grocery stores. Many people are clamoring for new laws to ban unvaccinated people from hospital care or medical care because they would be taking scarce resources away from those who deserve it. Dr. Peter Hotez has written editorials in Nature magazine claiming that unvaccinated people should be permanently quarantined. My health is poor. I suffer from a blood clotting disorder that would probably make vaccination dangerous to me--since all vaccines have been associated with blood clotting disorders. I obsess about vaccination all the time because I want to know in advance what new restrictions will affect me and whether they will end up forcing me to be vaccinated. I have decided that I will try to avoid vaccines except if jail or physical force or starvation makes it impossible to resist. After that if I suffer from disability due to vaccines, and it becomes unbearable, I plan to commit suicide. Since I now know the worst that can happen and I have a plan for it, I guess that's the best I can do. I do not worry about Covid at all, because I take Ivermectin, high dose vitamin D3, and other prophylactic supplements. I feel well protected from Covid but completely unprotected from vaccine adverse events. :(

Diana - there was a time in this country not so long ago when what you are describing would have been roundly condemned as a major human rights violation. But that country is dead. It lives inside many of us but externally, our country is unrecognizable.

It is impossible not to think of Covid all the time. It is a sword hanging over our head. It is as you described.

Is there any way you could move to a freer state?

Diana please keep up with us here. Many of us are frightened. Unsure of what is to come. But we need you. You are absolutely one of us. And quite frankly you are doing it in an area that is much more burdensome than most.

May God wrap His arms around you and keep you.

Lena I do love you. One of the awful things about mass censorship is that it keeps us apart. It is on platforms such as this that we find each other and can give each other support. There were over 250,000 Facebook followers of a support group for people suffering from vaccine side effects. Facebook shut down this group. Facebook is now censoring anyone who claims that vaccines are unsafe and branding us as "dirty" a threat to public health--much as the Nazis scapegoated the Jews. The fear mongering makes everyone eager to find someone to blame. Check out https://charleseisenstein.substack.com/p/a-temple-of-this-earth

Just as Trump got people to blame undocumented immigrants for "stealing" jobs. Our economy has stolen so much from its workers. RIchard Wolff has recently written a book about the relationship of Covid and the economy: "The Sickness is the System." Our dysfunctional privatized health care system has caused people to bankrupt themselves in order to get medical care. Vaccine injuries can almost never be reimbursed.

" One of the awful things about mass censorship is that it keeps us apart." Facebook closed groups of those with vaccine-induced illness. One of them had 200,000 members. Beside being wholly unethical, that's *cruel*, too. Pure evil, to comply with the narrative.

I very much appreciate your situation, respect you for holding out in a place that shames you for making a personal choice. Hold that line for your health, Diana.

What I agree with in theory but would love public debate about is another point you bring up with the phrase "dysfunctional privatized health care system". I haven't read the book you refer to, but did a quick internet search. Wikipedia lists Richard D. Wolff, author of the book you mention, as an American Marxian economist. His Youtube channel states his as a 'well-known critic of contemporary capitalism and leading proponent of an alternative economic system based on Worker Self-Directed Enterprises."

At first I was asking this question: Is this phrase "dysfunctional privatized health care system" promoting socialist health care, or that the current state of private is dysfunctional alone? Unfortunately, I believe it's promoting socialism and marxism.

Expand full comment

If you want to get more information about Dr. Wolff's views on the economy, he produced a recent YouTube video about worker shortages. His book, "The Sickness is the System," is available on Amazon. He is a Marxist. He believes that capitalism inevitably concentrates more and more wealth in the upper 1%, and that we are ruled by a wealthy oligarchy, since the politicians create policies/laws that benefit their donors instead of their voters. He would like workers to have more say in how their corporations are run. He is a proponent of "Worker Coops." See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iwxhfJAy2Yg&list=TLPQMTYxMDIwMjGJM1DXN8P-HA&index=5

He believes vaccines are safe and effective. He doesn't fully understand why people would refuse vaccination, and just believes what the mass media claim--it's Republicans who resent any form of government as an infringement on their "freedom." He tries to argue against this viewpoint, because we accept many government restrictions that make our lives safer. I did post a comment to argue against this viewpoints. To me there is a big difference between wearing a seat belt--even wearing a mask--and accepting a vaccine that may alter my DNA or kill or disable me.

I posted this comment yesterday, and haven't received any feedback from it:

Some libertarians argue that vaccine mandates are interfering with "personal freedom." Prof. Wolff argues that vaccine mandates are the same as seat belt mandates, traffic rules, anti littering, vandalism, etc. We nearly all agree to accept certain limitations in return for a safer environment and for the good of our fellow citizens. I will argue that vaccine mandates are different. Vaccines do pose significant risks of severe illness, disability, and death (see below). They also do not prevent the transmission of Covid or result in herd immunity. So it's not clear that everyone should be mandated to take them for the good of the community. The vaccines do seem to reduce the severity of Covid symptoms--which, therefore, reduces the likelihood of hospitalization and death. But this protection seems to wane after 4 to 6 months--especially against new variants which are not suppressed by the vaccines, but continue to evolve since the vaccines only protect against the original variant. Meanwhile, vaccinated people still can transmit the virus to other people--both vaccinated and unvaccinated. So herd immunity is impossible against Covid--or any other coronavirus. For example, each year the flu virus evolves different variants. Each year new vaccines need to be developed and administered. Therefore, taking the vaccine won't end up helping the community very much even though it may help the individual. In a recent podcast where Joe Rogan interviewed Alex Berenson, I believe they estimated the risk of getting Covid as about 1 or 2% for a vaccinated person and 5% to 7% for an unvaccinated person. The risk of dying is even lower. I believe we have a 99.7% survival rate. The people who die are overwhelmingly the very old, frail, and those with preexisting conditions. In Israel where 78% of the population is fully vaccinated, the majority of hospitalized Covid cases are vaccinated. Another argument is that vaccines are safe so it should be OK to mandate them for everybody. But a year ago the CDC published a paper showing that adverse reactions are much higher than originally estimated. The VAERS system reports extremely high rates of severe adverse reactions such as Guillain-Barre, Bell's Palsy, anaphylaxis, myocarditis, heart attacks, strokes, blood clotting disorders, seizures, etc.--and even death. https://trialsitenews.com/proof-that-the-cdc-is-lying-to-the-world-about-covid-vaccine-safety/ Furthermore, the current vaccines only have Emergency Use Authorization and are rarely administered with informed consent that would fully notify people of the risks that they are undergoing if they get vaccinated. Shouldn't people be able to get a medical exemption? Yet most doctors are pressured to withhold such exemptions for fear of having their licenses suspended. So using a seat belt poses very little risk to one's health. But using a vaccine if one has an underlying medical condition such as blood clotting, autoimmune disorders, heart conditions, etc. could be very dangerous to one's health. I believe, therefore, that each individual should be free to make their own decision about whether the risk is worth the benefit.

Dear Diana,

If you possibly can, please consider a move to Florida.

My wife & I recently stayed in Miami & it’s almost completely normal there.

But for the vagaries of the US immigration system, we would have remained indefinitely, as we have granted work visas (but have so far been totally unable to convert the approval into a stamped visa in our passports).

U.K. is falling rapidly into an inferno. It’s horrible that so few appear able to sed the terror just ahead. Two of the four constituent countries within the U.K. have already introduced vaccine passports (VaxPass). England inevitably will do so.

Our plans mirror yours, despite being just 61. We don’t plan to live in VaxPassWorld. We will exercise our right not to vis the last act of a sovereign human being.

I do hope you’ve some allies like you.

This evil plan being unfolded everywhere on the planet cannot merely have totalitarian tyranny as it’s sole objective. Not given the mass killing going on under the guise of vaccination.

These vaccines are not needed, since there are highly effective treatments; not effective, since large numbers of vaccine failures are being reported; not safe, since VAERS is showing 60X normal death rates compared with 30 years of prior vaccines.

With Dr Wolfgang Wodarg, I warned late last year that toxicity was absolutely unavoidable.

We are fortunate to have a dozen resourceful adults nearby & we plan to resist passively through the winter, during which time I anticipate power outages, motor fuel shortages, food rationing & the requirement that VaxPass be shown to obtain that ration.

All of this will be wholly manufactured.

I’d be absolutely terrified if forced to be injected with any of these products.

Best wishes

Mike

Dr. Yeadon, you are my hero. I feel honored to get your advice. I do have a close friend living in Florida, but I'm not yet ready to move. I have closer ties to friends and facilities in New York City. I live in a coop where I'm friendly with the staff. I have neighbors who offer assistance and are friendly with me. The government hates me--but I don't feel this hate constantly. Yes, I'm frightened about our future. But I'm hoping that we will not reach the level of oppression that I see in Australia. Even in Australia they haven't yet started forcibly vaccinating people. I'm OK with staying alone in my home to see if I can wait out the hysteria. I think of it like a video game or a board game. What is my best bet for insuring quality of life? All my medical care is in New York. I have 2 doctors who treated me and successfully almost eliminated arthritis pain. One is a chiropractor who gives me hands on fascial manipulation which is very effective. I would lose access to them if I move to Florida. I have a really comfortable apartment. I don't want to give it up. I have a network of friends that offer social support. I like NYU Langone (for my hospital). I can still play tennis outdoors for 7 or 8 months of the year. I like the local businesses: the pharmacy, the supermarket, my housekeeper. I have enough money to support myself. It would be very expensive to move. So for now I'm OK. Thank you so much for your support.

I'm so sorry, Diana. I too am unvaccinated and it astounds me how some people wish to treat us. I live in Georgia and its a lot more free, so is Florida. Is it possible for you to move away from New York? I remember seeing the NY Governor's comments (it was a gift from God, go be her disciples, etc.) and I was appalled.

I agree it seems like taking the vaccine is like playing some sort of Russian roulette, where you're not sure how it will impact you. Some have immediate side effects and others strange symptoms that no one can figure out how to fix (I watched the testimony of some of the vaccine injured gave at a press conference put on by Sen. Ron Johnson). It is very frightening because I do feel there are many adverse affects that are not recognized/being investigated.

I know sometimes it feels like the walls are closing in... I have to limit my time watching the news, etc. because it can be so overwhelming and stressful (I never thought I'd see some of the things we are seeing in America, such as: people's glee regarding tyranny/authoritarianism, wanting to exclude unvaccinated people from society and health care). I am deeply concerned for our country and for the future of my children (who are all very young). I come here to Alex's substack, as well as others to keep my sanity and to know that I'm not alone.

Even though I'm elderly, I am not obese, diabetic, in heart failure, or suffering from cancer. In that way I am lucky.

Diana, if you do ever get sick with Covid19, do you have your “medical kit” ready to deploy? Do you know about the FLCCC website- Frontline Covid Critical Care alliance of physicians with Dr. Pierre Kory and Dr. Paul Marik? If you can obtain ivermectin, you must do so. I’ve helped save tens of people ages 51-88 plus several younger folks with the FLCCC protocol. I was an internal medicine provider for over three decades. This protocol works. My 88 year old was well within a week, back to 100% normal within 2 weeks. No one ever dropped their oxygen saturations, none developed Covid organizing pneumonia, none went to hospital, and none developed Long Covid. Make sure you are taking 5000 units of vitamin D3 daily and get your serum level of vitamin D checked so you’ll know if you need boosting with extra D to get your serum levels in the 60-80 ng/ml range. Diana, we are all thinking of you, holding you up, supporting you from afar.

You can sink your fangs into her now while she is unprotected!" I understand totally. I think disaster will finally bring government to it's senses. But it will not. Because they live in a different world. They are mostly protected from any sense of responsibility.

Diana, thank you for sharing this heartfelt message about the sociopathic discrimination and malicious threats you are being subjected to.

I can’t imagine a more compelling reason for a medical exemption than a blood clotting disorder—have you explored the possibility of obtaining a medical exemption? Or a religious exemption if there are no ethical physicians willing to grant you a medical exemption? I do recall that New York’s laws are so severe, they don’t even acknowledge medical exemptions, at least when it comes to accessing certain venues, correct?

Regardless, it seems you have a potential lawsuit on your hands if you are either denied a medical exemption or access to necessities with a medical exemption. Wrongfully terminated employees are starting to have success in the courts—we need to hammer the system with lawsuits to help hold these tyrants accountable and at least attempt to obtain justice. I suspect you would be able to find an attorney who may be willing to offer their services pro bono. It’s an option to consider, in any case.

As others have also suggested, moving is a possibility as well. I urge you to consider all other avenues before permitting them to pressure you into vaccination, and above all, *please* do not embrace suicide as an option (which won’t be necessary if you don’t allow them to inject you!). I’m sure you have many people who love you dearly, and they would be devastated by your loss.

If you are desperate enough to consider suicide, you have every reason to fight with everything you’ve got to help liberate yourself and your fellow New Yorkers from these horrendous violations of human rights.

Please take good care, and I hope you find a solution that brings you peace, health, and joy.

Thanks so much for your heartfelt advice. I am retired, so I just need to stay quarantined and avoid all activities. It doesn't make sense for me to hire a lawyer just to play tennis. I do have enough money to hire my own lawyer. I would do it to gain access to Ivermectin if I am hospitalized since the government is forbidding hospitals to give proper medical care. I have 4 doctors. They all are ready to treat me with Ivermectin and early Covid medical treatment, so I'm not worried about Covid. Dr. Peter McCullough, Dr. Pierre Kory, Dr. Zeve Zelenko have treated thousands of patients successfully. I asked 3 of my doctors for a medical exemption. One doctor refused medical exemptions. She stated that her clinic has a policy of never granting medical exemptions. Another doctor said he would think about.

The third doctor didn't answer my request. I decided not to bother the 4th doctor. You know that the AMA has now threatened doctors with loss of their licenses if they oppose vaccination? NY doesn't honor medical exemptions anyway. I am not religious. I think it makes more sense for me to join a class action suit if NY decides to ban grocery shopping. Israel hasn't done that. I am able to accept a lot of restrictions on my freedom in order to avoid vaccination. I just want to be able to use the subway to visit my chiropractor for pain treatments for my arthritis. But I guess I can give that up also. I'm hoping that eventually Covid will burn itself out. Or lawsuits will prevail. Or mass strikes will influence the government. Every day I run to the internet to see the latest news. God bless you all for your support. So far NY is much better than Australia.

Diana, I agree that you don’t have any need to worry about COVID, especially since you’re already so well-educated on early treatment protocols.

I would urge you to continue pursuing a medical exemption while it’s still possible to get one. Maybe follow up with the doctor who said he’d think about it. How any physician could hesitate to grant an exemption to a patient with a blood-clotting disorder is beyond comprehension, but so is everything that’s been happening since this catastrophe began.

The AMA’s threat is totalitarian in the extreme (reminds me of professionals being required to take the “Oath” in Nazi Germany) and a terrifying prospect. I keep saying all of these ethical medical professionals need to form their own underground health network if they are barred from practicing due to these authoritarian measures. I would gladly patronize them over the colluders who are willing to take the Oath!

I hate to place my doctors at risk. Especially since NY doesn't honor any medical exemptions. Vaccine passports are the only way to enter indoor facilities. So far grocery shopping, public transportation, and medical offices are not banned. So my strategy is just stay at home. Maybe I can get a vaccinated friend to shop for me if groceries are banned. I have several neighbors offering to shop for me. My therapist says the Supreme Court will invalidate any mandate that excludes food. He believes in vaccines, though, and is planning to get a booster shot in February. He offered to write me a medical exemption, but he is not a medical doctor, so it won't be honored. I think that the government will make more and more restrictions on exemptions. Today the NYTImes had a special section praising the efficacy of vaccine mandates. They published a lot of individual profiles interviewing people who finally decided to get vaccinated after being threatened with losing their jobs and livelihoods. One woman stated she felt terrified after she got Covid and recovered--so she ran out and got vaccinated right away to feel safe! Fear mongering has totally misled this woman. She is already 19 times (I don't remember the specific number) safer because she has natural immunity after recovery from Covid. She doesn't need to be vaccinated. Indeed, I have heard that people who have recovered from Covid are MORE likely to have adverse reactions. The Times seemed to be celebrating vaccine mandates because finally they are persuading "the deplorables" to come to Jesus and get the jab. TI consider it misinformation to publish this woman's decision to get vaccinated without also stating that vaccination confers zero benefit for those who already have natural immunity. I see so many lies published in The New York Times, The New Yorker, The Funny Times, and TV news broadcasts. It's very easy to get triggered. Unvaccinated people are even described as suffering from mental illness. (I guess persecution will eventually drive us crazy.)

Factor V Leiden should definitely qualify as a medical exemption, Diana. For example, for young women who had this genetic condition, I would never prescribe birth control pills because to do so, may cause them to throw a clot. As it is, birth control pills do have that risk anyway. So, Factor V Leiden is a verifiable, sure-to-be-accepted Covid vaccine medical exemption I’d think. Cheers to you. So glad you have good neighbors and friends.

I have a doctor's appointment coming up in about 2 weeks. Based on your recommendations, I will ask him to test me for Leiden V and see if I can get a medical exemption. I had given up, but this forum is inspiring me with new strength.

Diana, it sounds like you’ve thought this through carefully and are approaching this pragmatically. We stopped going to the grocery store well over a year ago to avoid the nonsense and have been getting our groceries delivered from a combination of a local CSA, Thrive Market (https://thrivemarket.com/myaisle), ButcherBox (https://www.butcherbox.com/), Amazon, and other online stores as the need arises. I don’t know if you have Instacart (https://www.instacart.com/) there, but that has been a big help as well.

You are so right about the deluge of propaganda, and I wish more people were as knowledgeable and able to see through the lies as easily as you.

It is funny that those suffering from hypochondria, obsessive-compulsive disorder, paranoia, and mass delusion are accusing us of mental illness, but it is the sane who appear insane when lunacy is the status quo.

Take good care, whatever you decide, and keep us posted. Maybe start a Substack blog to share your journey?

If you are forced to get jabbed, ivermectin before and after will do a lot to protect you from the spike protein and clots.

Thanks for your advice. I also made a delicious drink from pink grapefruit, lemons, and pine needles that is supposed to produce shikemic acid to block spike protein from attaching to ACE2 receptors.

Dr. Pierre Kory has mentioned that if forced to take the jabs, take a dose of ivermectin a day before, the day of, and the day after your jabs. Also, if not contraindicated for you, take an aspirin a day, on a full stomach, for a couple weeks just before then after your jabs. That should help mop up any free circulating spike peptides (the ivy) and prevent clotting (the aspirin).

Hi everybody. I honestly spend most of my day thinking about or studying the Covid response, the threat of losing my livelihood and how to protect my family and our valuables ie. food security, nutrition, heat, shelter, land. I try hard to be present at work and with my loved ones but am 100% certain that we are at war with a malevolent egregore. If you follow the money, read the technocrats scripted narratives/initiatives and are paying attention to cuurent events the time to prepare for austerity is now. Any strong response from freedom loving people is going to need a reliable base of supply, communication and mutual aid. Build the secure network and link up with your people while being a good example for those still living in fear of the mob, the politics and the virus. Thanks for reading!

Yes please spread the word. Archon is another good one that relates to archetypes, the collective unconscious and the power of myth to transform society (Carl Jung, Joseph Campbell).

Egregore can mean a thought form created thru ritual and repetition that imposes its will on the host group. Think Platos cave allegory.. a powerful entity using light to cast shadows of the truth to captivate an audience (media and politics). A liberated person returning to the cave is attacked by the people hooked on the shadow world. Stay in the light.

Charles Eisenstein has been sharing about mob mentality and vaccination and people are referring to Desmet's concept of "Mass Formation" to explain the troubles. You also might want to take a look at Plato, Pharmakon and the Noble Lie.

As our founders were more than aware, human behavior and emotions have not changed over the eons. We are greedy. Rather than a living document, the Constitution was a way to control and restrain humans. We see we have indeed lost our way giving up liberty for security because our Constitution is not being followed. The Courts were a way to affim liberty but also have been corrupted. While Plato tries to inform our thinking about wise masters, our swamp masters think only of themselves, they are not the wise ones.

I suspect the public is now aware of that cool term, egregore functioning, that has consumed us. We can hope that some begin to demand better.

Agreed Dr Yeadon. I see the struggle coming down to a few key areas with some elements of self-destruction built-in by either error or design.

As you know this could end through a combination of 1) direct action. 2) ADE, OAS, Mareks and/or 3) catabolic collapse resulting in the central planners being unable to maintain compliance with "immunity as a subscription" and digital ID schemes. In this scenario, we win but should be prepared for austerity from top-down measures.

Some observations that have been articulted and you might consider: the gaslighting with contradictory guidance, arbitrary restrictions and ineffective treatments are "a feature and not a bug;" the virus response has been weaponized and is a form of marxist and/or thelemic

accelerationism to replace capitalism and free society with a reductionist utopian. In that case, the dialectic and response is anticipated as seen in the Rockefeller narratives and Event 201 ie. Lockstep and narrative control. The pushback is channeled into developing a panopticon surveillance and biosecurity state for more efficient means of control to serve the elite.

You might try yourMedCart. It’s shipped from India. Mumbai is a major generic drug manufacturing hub. It worked for me, three times, and it got through U.S. Customs, which is always a worry.

I'm homozygous for MTHFR which is a genetic difficulty processing methy folate. It means that I have problems detoxifying drugs. I get side effects to almost every drug. Supplements, though, not so much. I was disabled for almost 2 months after taking anesthesia. It turns out that side effects to medications, if severe, can trigger latent viruses (such as SARS-COV-2, Lyme, Epstein Barr, ChickenPox). That's part of my concern over vaccination. HOWEVER, I have been taking 12 mg. of Ivermectin every week with no side effects whatsoever.

And Scandinavia is already conquered. Once the "vaccine" uptake is done, so is the groundwork for the passport. The media/corporate "emergency" can be re-fabricated in a few days when needed. (Note the inverse: the groundwork can be completely dismantled overnight everywhere if the vaccinated just destroy their documents or turn off their phones; that's the fragility of a fundamentally arbitrary unperson paradigm.) As for Africa, I think they're overconfident in the ability to sell the vax based on closed-loop propaganda after the rest of the world starts dropping dead.

Whether the US is the prime target left is actually the interesting part. Territorially, we are expendable. Get Europe and China on lock and you can afford to nuke the rest (i.e., you reach "nuclear checkmate"). I am not sure "they" really expect to or care about winning over the heartland with the mandates. But as I've said elsewhere the biggest obstacle in Europe is actually Russia - territory is not expendable and vax uptake is low and flatlined. It's an interesting disconnect in the global depop scheme.

South Africa is driving hard, but with limited success so far as people are more worried about their next meal than Covid. The health department in some areas are refusing people their chronic medication if they aren't vaccinated, absolutely diabolical.

Vaccine passports are now a thing (after Mr Gates met with Pres Ramaphosa and whispered sweet nothings), but only for sporting events. At last week's first soccer match with spectators, organizers had 2000 tickets available, but only 200 people showed up. No sh*ts given that 80% of the population has already been infected.

Some businesses are implementing a "no vax, no job" policy, also with limited success, so now they are going after 12+ year old children - no parental consent needed. Face masks mandatory 24/7 indoors and out and a nightly curfew.. Lucky our police are hapless and most rules are being ignored.

You’re correct. The only detectable effect in a 1500 subject multi centre trial in Vietnam was that those specifically wearing cloth masks ended up with atypical bacterial pneumonias at a significantly greater frequency than blue mask western or no mask at all.

Dr. Yeadon, are you aware of the paper Fauci coauthored in 2009 on the 1918 influenza pandemic titled, “Predominant Role of Bacterial Pneumonia as a Cause of Death in Pandemic Influenza: Implications for Pandemic Influenza Preparedness” (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2599911/)? They concluded that a substantial portion of the deaths were not caused by the virus but rather by bacterial pneumonia—which, as you know, can be caused by mask-wearing (a fact Fauci no doubt knew when he pivoted to the pro-masking talking point).

Expand full comment

Yes, thank you, I had seen it & was aware that arguably there’s never been a respiratory viral pandemic as we’d previously have defined it (very many deaths over & above the usual elevated winter levels).

As you rightly point out, 1918 appears to have involved mass scale bacterial pneumonias in a pre-antibiotic era.

The 1950s & 1960s flu bugs had many deaths ascribed to them, but painstaking research by Canadian Dr Denis Rancourt found that none gave a rise in all-cause mortality.

Fascinating info about the 1950s and 60s bugs and all-cause mortality! I assume those passed with minimal fanfare due to the development of natural herd immunity. Thank you for the pointer to Dr. Denis Rancourt.

Thank you for the invitation but I’m choosing not to do new interviews at the moment and doing a bit more here. I’ve been interviewed perhaps 50X, and while Dr McCullough is over 500 !!!!

I’d retired early, in 2017, because I’d already experienced a life-threatening illness, rescued by skilful surgery, but all far from ideal when facing this nonsense.

I might change my mind (I will feel guilty soon, I expect) so if you notice new interviews, do get in touch.

I post often through a Telegram channel called “Robin Monotti + Dr Mike Yeadon”. In fact, I just shared the paper you reminded me of already!

Having spent the previous week trying to recover from the deluge that occurred after three of my articles went viral (thanks to Lew Rockwell, The Burning Platform, ZeroHedge, and American Digest publishing them, among others), I realized I wasn’t quite ready for that level of visibility. I had two 24-hour marathons in a row last week just trying to keep up, and it was taking a toll on both my health and creative time, which I try to be very protective of.

That said, if and when you change your mind, know that I conduct interviews in written form, so I would send the questions to you, and you would have the luxury of answering them at your convenience, even if it takes months. I’m in no hurry as I have a massive number of articles, interviews, and other projects on my todo list.

Meanwhile, I hope to see you at my blog if and when you have time to explore :-) My fairy tale (https://margaretannaalice.substack.com/p/the-vapor-the-hot-hat-and-the-witches) was partly inspired by what I learned from you, as are most of my other pieces, such as Letter to a Colluder: Stop Enabling Tyranny (https://margaretannaalice.substack.com/p/letter-to-a-colluder-stop-enabling) and Letter to a Covidian (https://margaretannaalice.substack.com/p/letter-to-a-covidian-a-time-travel). Perhaps you can share Letter with a Colluder to all your scientific colleagues you mentioned who are too afraid to speak out :-)

How wonderful to hear you’ve teamed up with Robin Monotti! I have referenced his excellent documentary work and will continue to do so, I’m sure. I’m not on Telegram as of yet but may need to investigate at some point, time permitting.

Will you be starting a Substack blog? Or is there a way to sign up for your existing newsletter? I had trouble finding it when searching but learned about its existence when OffGuardian published a piece from it a while back.

If you are able to share the links to the DayStar TV interview as well as the Polish-translated one you mention below, I’d love to see them!

The only time outside of sleep where I can absolutely assure no covid thought or talk is when I am playing sports. I have to concentrate. And it keeps me healthy... should I get covid ; / haha.

Yes I can easily go 1 hour w/o hearing about covid provided I listen to dance videos on YouTube and watch HBO (no commercials) or don't watch TV. However, I am constantly hearing my inner voice that brings up Covid issues. My vaccinated friends have forbidden me to speak about Covid, vaccinations, masks or Ivermectin. But I do have many unvaccinated friends. I have a worry that I'm going to slip up and forward anti-vaxx information to the wrong friends. I guess that will be funny.

Expand full comment

ignore covid, ignore the people who fear covid, hold disdain for the unvaxxed, and shut off the media.

i just came back from a b'day party for grandkids' other gramma. the daughter refrained from inviting any unvaxxed. the oldest person there was 72 and no health issues, no one else there had health issues but relations and old friends were not allowed if they were not anointed with the scam vaccines.

i am more than a little incensed, and i will cause huge angst when i refuse to go there for Christmas.

'she who must be obeyed' will be annoyed no end bc she is a karen and agreed with the auntie who shunned the unvaxxed!

i will shun the shunners.

people still think only the unvaxxed can spread it. that's the power of the word VACCINE. we are, at heart, a primitive species, little better at determining truth from magic than we were 10,000 years ago.

I do not think about covid because I do not listen to news nor do I pay attention to people that talk about covid.

I live in northern Virginia (yes in that Loudoun County, that used to be 100% conservative until 15 years ago) and I do not wear a mask anywhere. I have not had covid. Today I have a head cold, not a bad one.

I grew up directly to your east (several locations, we moved a lot). Northern VA sure has changed a lot in my life (I'm nearly 60). I moved away nearly 20 years ago. Except for one blood relative in MD, I have no friends or family in the area any more. I doubt I'll ever visit again. The entire area is utterly alien to what I knew even thirty years ago.

I'm not a kitten but I am a psychotherapist and obsessing about anything out of fear, of course, can lead to some debilitating psychopathologies and constrict your capacity to think in a creative, flexible and reasonable way (and thus your life will not go back to normal). I study the covid response from the perspective of a psychologist interested in mass psychosis, psychological control, and similar - the focus on covid is not motivated by fear but out of curiosity and a desire to understand. In other words the variables of "time", "energy/focus", "fear", "curiosity", could lead to psychopathic obsession OR something like a greater sense of self-identity, clarity, bravery, or any number of other positive attributes (like a helpful substack!).

Kitty, baby, you are spot on. Don’t forget that the 24/7 media megaphone wants us cold, scared and alone, and full of covidy crap. So, let’s throw off the suffocating covidness they have blanketed us with, and hit the sunlight and fresh air, pronto! Goodbye covid masters, we abandon you toot sweet! FREEDOM FLU!

Gato is right. Unfortunately, with the signs and the masks, even if you get away from the media and don't talk about it, it's hard not to be reminded.

How do I emigrate to Norway? In Canada the great reset is full steam ahead and there isn’t a province that isn’t completely F’d up. They are now forcing the vax on kids who can’t play sports without it. Kids are dying and no one cares. Social credit system here we come.

Best way is to find a job first. The company will help you relocate and get the papers in order. You can start here https://arbeidsplassen.nav.no/stillinger or here https://www.finn.no/job/fulltime/search.html?abTestKey=rerank&sort=RELEVANCE. Use google translate or similar.

I've had Covid. I took reasonable precautions (no vax) before I got it, yet I got it anyway and I'm just fine. (Still no vax.) I don't think about it at all now. Of course it helps that I live in a no-mask no vax-mandate lovely Red State. Everything feels normal around here, and has for quite some time, aside from a sighting of the increasingly rare masker.

hows the job market there? the fed mandates are designed to ruin life in ALL the states -- can't have the republicans free and happy, after all...

Expand full comment

In Montana- amazing job market. Shortage of workers. Our gov was the first to sign a bill that said an employer cannot ask about your vax status. The state is also offering a $5000 relocation bonus for new workers. Bozeman is a little insane due to a huge influx of blue state (gag) refugees- some are normals, some are very blue but they want to be free of the high cost of living and the restrictions on everyday life. The sad thing is that a number of local businesses have either closed or are struggling due to a lack of workers. Construction is booming. Gas prices are still around $3.30, although a year ago we paid $2.09. Starting salaries for unskilled labor- even at MacDonald's- range from $20 to $35/hour. Every single business in the area has a help wanted sign posted in the window- UPS, FedEx, the USPS- every single place. We need doctors, nurses, other healthcare professionals. Desperate for teachers and school personnel. There are two caveats- the influx of new residents has caused average home prices to shoot up- but this is because all the Californians are buying up luxury properties, thus inflating the average price. Things are still affordable in the county and the smaller communities surrounding Bozeman. We live in the county. The second caveat- Bozeman is the only school district- aside from Missoula- that still has a part-time mask mandate, although the governor has signed an executive order that school boards cannot compel students to wear masks. In addition, so I guess a third caveat- the Bozeman school board is quietly- over the objections of 95% of parents and teachers- attempting to institute an 'equity' curriculum. None of the surrounding community schools are doing either- no masks, no equity curriculum. So, people are trying to get their kids into other school districts and the private schools- really good private schools- have no shortage of students. People up here have big families as well, so I'm willing to go out on a limb and say this is a hopeful, prosperous state.

Oh wow, that sounds great. I'm in Vermont -- I moved here from California and somehow I arrived a democrat but turned republican. I guess I just found the meddling of democrats into every aspect of your life annoying, and now, actively dangerous. It's one thing to ban plastic straws and bags (ok, well who cares?) and make it illegal to throw "food scraps" in the trash (wtf? at least it's not enforced on the general public, yet) but now I'm worried about how crazy they'll go with vax mandates.

Is Bozeman the only place with jobs? How is the rental market -- perhaps I can keep my house in Vermont for now, but work in Montana? (I might lose my job because of vax mandates.)

Expand full comment

A lot of folks move here but work remotely. The rental market is tight, although housing is available in surrounding communities and we're talking maybe an additional 5-10 minutes from town. Now is a good time to look because those who wanted to move here before school started are now here and I'm seeing houses sitting on the market. Prices in Bozeman are high, regardless, plus Montana State is here so students take up a lot of the rentals near campus. We prefer the county in any case. Every place in Montana has jobs jobs jobs! Livingston is 30 minutes away and is an old western town- windy but really interesting. Billings is more industrial but super western and the downtown is great. Butte has jobs - gorgeous location and affordable housing. An hour from Bozeman on the other side of The Great Divide. Around Bozeman are the following- Gallatin Gateway, Four Corners, Belgrade, Manhattan, Amsterdam, Three Forks- all an easy drive. No traffic, especially if you are used to CA. I cannot tell you how gorgeous Montana is. The sunsets are beyond beautiful. And I love snow!

Thanks we are CA and looking around. Sorry to hear about the Bozeman equity curriculum. We will not be bringing CA trends with us on the contrary. I'm getting a pickup with a gun rack and a Gadsden flag.

We moved from CA in 2017. Never looked back but then we are originally from the Midwest. My husband's work dragged us to CA. Our middle daughter married a cattle rancher here, and the minute we had a grandbaby we left CA. Now we have two! Our youngest left CA as well and has no regrets. Our son still lives in Sac but he's looking to move. And yes, we bought a pickup, an Airstream, and guns. And fly our flag with pride. Check out Belgrade, Manhattan and Three Forks. All have great schools. It's like moving back to a time when America was safe and clean and happy. And normal! Mostly drama-free.

Hey Kitten. I live in SW Florida and thanks to our governor we can live life mostly free. Doctors offices and some retail stores still require mask wearing but no vaxx mandates allowed.

It seems there is a certain portion of the population that is hardwired to act as a herd and to follow their leader regardless of what dangers they are led into. They prefer not to think for themselves which makes them a danger to everyone who does. There doesn't seem to be a rational argument that would convince them to act like a normal human. Driving their own car, alone and wearing a mask they don't want any of their own to see them without their compliance gear in place. Being ostracized from their social circles is worse to them than getting the virus.

While "thinking about covid" I crunched some numbers about the UK and wrote an article about their "Vaccine Hell". Basically vaccines there are now worse than useless, confirmed by the numbers from PHE.

https://igorchudov.substack.com/p/uks-vaccine-hell-gets-worse-every

To give you a preview of this article: Vaccines in the UK have become LESS THAN WORTHLESS in October. “The vaccinated” get infected MORE than the unvaccinated. The vaccinated have higher infection rates and are now the drivers of the UK epidemic.

While some degree of “protection from death” still remains, it is dropping by about 7% every month for the most relevant groups. I break it down by age to avoid the stupid “but you need to do age adjustment” criticism, to show that the disaster is in almost every age group.

Every kitten deserves it catnip once in a while. Every human too! We all need our moments of respite in this tumultuous, divisive time.

When we come out of that break, however, it's impossible not to see and feel segregation / shame / medical apartheid being put upon you. That would be ignoring reality. Emperor's New Clothes kind of reality. Kitty - if you want to dream, how about leading us in dreams of IDEALS WE NEED TO BE SHARING.

What are our ideals for human rights today - worldwide - in the USA - in Europe?

What are our ideals for free speech rights today?

What are our ideals for medical ethics, medical rights today?
