RE: COVID19 / Coronavirus Overview - Global Research - awakened53 - 09-29-2020 New coronavirus mutation could be evolving to get around mask-wearing and hand-washing – ‘virus mutation’ so predictable that I did predict it. So bloody transparent it’s pathetic Covid-19 may have become more contagious as it has mutated, the largest genetic study carried out in the US into the virus has suggested, as scientists warn it could be adapting to interventions such as mask-wearing and social distancing. One variant of the novel coronavirus is now one of the most dominant in America, accounting for 99.9 per cent of cases in one area studied. The paper concluded that a mutation that changes the structure of the “spike protein” on the surface of the virus may be driving the outsized spread of that particular strain. Researchers have been sequencing the genomes of the coronavirus at Houston Methodist, one of the largest hospitals in Texas, since early March, when the virus first appeared in the city. To date, they have documented 5,085 sequences.

It’s just the start Cats can spread coronavirus to other pets and must stay indoors with their self-isolating owners, scientists have warned. New research suggests that cats can spread the deadly virus from one to another through their nose and mouth. Researchers from Colorado State University have advised keeping cats indoors if a human in a household has become infected- because they could spread coronavirus to other cats. They have also said that if a person with Covid-19 needs to be admitted to a hospital and has pet cats, the feline’s caretakers should know to observe social distancing as they would with a person. The research conducted by Colorado State University said: “Infected pet cats should not be allowed to roam freely outdoors to prevent potential risk of spreading infection to other outdoor cats or wildlife. “While neither species developed clinical disease in this study, cats shed infectious virus for up to five days and infected naive cats via direct contact, while dogs do not appear to shed virus. “Thus if symptomatic humans follow appropriate quarantine procedures and stay home with their pets, there is minimal risk of a potentially exposed cat infecting another human.” There are now hopes that cats’ immune systems could hold the key for new coronavirus vaccines. This comes as deaths related to coronavirus surpassed one million globally. After testing seven cats and three dogs that were injected with the virus, the research found that neither species appeared to get ill from Covid-19. But cats’ immune systems stopped the moggies from being reinfected.

Askania said: In the video at 22.00 minutes you see an operative taking a mouth swab, after they do the gloves and person will be contaminated from the breath or any possible physical contact with the tester, this means that the operative taking the swab needs to change their gloves and decontaminate after each and every person they come into contact with, this makes these testing stations obsolete and or very dangerous, especially if any of the people tested have the covid virus, or any other disease, these stations should be stopped immediately, they are to be avoided at all costs.

From the beginning I have taken the virus seriously. I reported the available information that the ability of the virus to spread threatened hospital capacity and could overwhelm the medical system. I supported limited closedowns in order to reduce the rate at which the infection spread. I reported that Vitamin C and D3 together with zinc and NAC strengthened the immune system against the virus. I reported that the masks people are wearing are not N95 masks and thereby do not prevent inhalation and exhalation of the virus. Some medical professionals have concluded that the masks do harm and no good. As more information became available, I reported that the virus attacked in a different way than assumed and that ventilators rather than the virus itself were killing people. When doctors discovered the HCQ cure, I reported that an inexpensive and safe cure was available. I defended with evidence and expert testimony the effectiveness and safety of the cure from public health officials and other Big Pharma shills who intentionally discredited the cure in the interest of Big Pharma’s hopes to develop an expensive and mandatory vaccine. For Fauci and Big Phama shills, profit took precedence over public health and safety. As more information comes available, we see that that the argument for another lockdown based on a second wave is based on increased testing using a test that produces false positives. A test that experts know to be unreliable is the basis for the effort to renew the lockdown, mandate vaccination, and wear ineffectual masks to keep the fear alive. Whereas I do not think the virus itself is a hoax, it is obvious that interest groups are serving their agendas by creating hoaxes around the virus. One agenda is to maintain a high level of fear so that people will submit to the vaccinations that will mean tens of billions of dollars in profit for Big Pharma. Another agenda is to blame Covid on Trump for calling for an end to lockdowns, not always wearing a mask, and supporting reopening of the economy. Democrats think this will boost their presidential chances. Another agenda is to condition the pubic to accept control measures, like the ones in the movie, V for Vendetta, that destroy civil liberty and constitutional protections. This enhances the power of the deep state over us all. It is certainly the case that power and profit interests have dominated public health concerns. One can understand why many view the Covd pandemic as an orchestration. The reports of Wuhan in China were frightening. The lockdown and massive number of cases, the mortality of which were not known. Despite the warning, the public health authorities in the entirety of the Western World were slow to take any measures and permitted the virus to infect the West.. No airline flights from infected countries were cancelled until after the virus was imported. Cruise ships continued to operate. No N95 masks were available. Measures, except in Sweden, were imposed that themselves were harmful and perhaps caused more harm than Covid itself. Big Pharma using its paid experts, whose research it finances, and NIH, CDC, WHO, and other allegedly “independent” agencies financially connected to Big Pharma, exaggerated the threat, ruined the economy with closedowns, and now uses a defective Covid test to orcherestrat a second wave of Covid. This past week NPR had on air a former Obama official who said we are doomed unless we lockdown 90% of the economy and all wear masks at all times. NPR’s “expert” did not know the difference between masks that protect and those that don’t. And neither does most of the American medical profession. I have just completed my annual physical checkup. Everywhere required a mask for entrance. I wore a surgical mask and took with me a N95. I told every nurse, every technican, every doctor, none of whom were wearing a N95 mask, that the masks they were wearing were useless, and I showed them the mask they needed if they were concerned about becoming Covid infected. They were dumbfounded. They had not a clue. One doctor, a female from India, said, yes, you are correct, but we wear masks to reassure the patients who have been indoctrinated by the American media. Covid is a danger, but so is life. Why wreck the economy and civil liberty over this one danger, especially as the danger has been exaggerated? Hardly anyone has died from Covid except people with co-morbidities. These deaths are concentrated in the older age groups for the simple reason that the longer a person lives, the more morbidity the person has accumulated by poor health habits such as diet, smoking, alcohol, and lack of exercise. These are the same morbidities that result in flu deaths. Americans need to recover from their gullibiity. Too many Americans believe the presstitutes and believe pubic authorities. Too few Americans understand that every crisis, real or manufactured, is an opportunity for an interest group’s profit and power. The explanations that Americans get are controlled to serve power and profit. If the public doesn’t catch on, America is doomed. Reprinted with permission from PaulCraigRoberts.org.

There have been some notable exceptions; a few journalists who still understand their vital role to question power. Unfortunately, for the most part, questions have been most notable for their absence. Without a functioning mainstream media, and with government scientific advisors seemingly bought and paid for by pharmaceutical corporations, it has been left to independent journalists and researchers to question the Covid-19 narrative that we are all supposed to accept without hesitation. Few have worked harder than Mark Oakford. Mark has sent 1,392 freedom of information requests to local authorities, Clinical Commissioning Groups, NHS trusts, Police Forces, Education Authorities, Ministerial departments and more. While a few requests remain unanswered, he has gathered data on more than 1.6 million public sector workers across the UK. That's 1.6 million ordinary working people, employed in every community from Wick to Penzance. Mark's efforts have provided us an opportunity to compare what we are told about Covid-19 mortality with the actual reality in our towns and cities. The questions he asked were reasonable and you would anticipate, given that the UK government are taking further Lockdown measures to fend off an alleged second wave of a global pandemic, that the requested data would be readily available. Full responses to Mark's information requests do not require any breech of data protection. Mark asked the following questions: [ol] [li]What is the total number of your workforce?[/li] [li]What is the total number of staff who have died from Covid-19 within your organisation?[/li] [li]What is the total number of staff who have been admitted to hospital as a result of Covid-19?[/li] [li]What is the total number of staff who have been properly diagnosed with Covid-19 not requiring hospitalisation?[/li] [li]What is the total number of staff who have had to take time of work through isolation procedures not counting when offices have been closed.[/li] [/ol] Questions 1, 2 and 5 should be simple enough for any public sector employer to answer. Perhaps questions 3 and 4 less so, although you would expect conscientious staff to disclose this to their employers. So what does Mark's diligent research reveal? The Official Statistics The Office of National Statistics provide mortality statistics for England and Wales. The number they record are based upon registered death certificates. While other data sources, such as the NHS and the Care Quality Commission, also provide mortality statistics, all registered deaths must eventually have a corresponding death certificate. For this reason, ONS figures are perhaps the most reliable. In their latest analysis report the ONS state the following figures for England and Wales for the period between 1 January to 31 August: [ul] [li]389,835 deaths in total[/li] [li]48,168 deaths were "due" to Covid-19 as it was identified as the "underlying" cause[/li] [li]13,619 deaths were due to pneumonia[/li] [li]69,781 deaths involved pneumonia[/li] [li]394 deaths were due to influenza.[/li] [li]506 deaths involved influenza[/li] [li]19,470 death certificates cited both influenza and pneumonia alongside Covid-19 (IPC deaths)[/li] [li]18,642 (95.8%) of IPC death certificates recorded Covid-19 as the underlying cause of death[/li] [li]8 (0.04%) of IPC death certificates recorded influenza and pneumonia as the underlying cause of death[/li] [/ul] According to the 2011 census, the population of England and Wales was 56.1 million with a working age population of 36.6 million. Since then, the population in England and Wales has grown to 59.5 million - an increase of 6%. Therefore, the current estimated working age population is 38.8 million. Of the 59.5 million, 56.3 million (94.6%) live in England. Giving us a current estimated working age population of 36.7 million for England. According to the ONS, for the year up to the end of August, the age-standardised mortality rate (ASMR) for Covid-19 in England, among the under 65's, was 16.6 per 100,000 people. We note that Covid-19 deaths among those under 18 is statistically zero. The ONS claim that approximately 6,092 people, of working age in England, have died from Covid-19 so far this year. For this age distribution, the chances of you dying from Covid-19 is allegedly 0.0166%. But only if you accept the government's claims. To date, Mark's research of more than 1.6 million UK workers, casts significant doubt over the government figures: for 1,641,281 UK workers the total number of deaths reported was 76. There is a minor caveat: retirement ages vary, meaning a small number of included employees will be older than 65. However, many people retire early and the broad impact of this on Marks FOI numbers is negligible. Mark’s research reveals an ASMR of 4.6 per 100,000; somewhat less than the 16.6 per 100,000 reported by ONS. The average percentage chance of Covid-19 mortality for the working population is 0.0046%. This is three and half times lower than the official ONS ASMR implies. This strongly suggests that, of the 48,158 reported deaths "due" to Covid-19, the real number is closer to 13,759. A discrepancy of 34,399. A figure which has been mentioned before. Something doesn't add up. Why The Discrepancy? While the ONS report 48,158 recorded deaths "due" to Covid-19, (at the time of writing) the UK government report 57,347 deaths "with Covid-19 on the death certificate". While there is a lag in the ONS data, due to the time taken to issue death certificates, the UK government’s increased tally, for the entire UK, recorded 1,173 deaths "with Covid-19" since the end of August. We have every reason to question this number. This variation, between ONS recorded Covid-19 deaths and government claims of additional Covid-19 mortality, represents an error margin of approximately 19%. If Mark's research is closer to the truth, and we have solid evidence to suggest that it is, then that error margin is greater than 75%. Some ONS statements make little sense. This reveals the two fundamental problems plaguing any meaningful analysis of the reported Covid-19 statistics. Firstly, the figures are complete mush. They vary wildly depending upon who is reporting them, their methods, what they are reporting and when. Secondly, the data-gathering process itself is littered with contradictions, bizarre processes, huge conflicts of financial interest and is prone to both error and manipulation. The death registration process, providing data to the ONS on Covid-19 mortality, results in statistical nonsense. It forces the ONS to openly make statements like this: Quote:Influenza and pneumonia was mentioned on more death certificates than COVID-19, however COVID-19 was the underlying cause of death in over three times as many deaths between January and August 2020.This illogical babble is what we have instead of meaningful mortality statistics. That doesn't stop the failed MSM from reporting them without analysis. This confusion is not necessarily the fault of the ONS. It seems to be the product of a death registration system purposefully constructed to inflate Covid-19 mortality statistics. When influenza, pneumonia and Covid-19 are on a Medical Certificate Cause of Death (MCCD) together, without a postmortem, it is ridiculous to suggest that nearly 96% of these deaths (18,642) must be Covid-19 deaths. Some may well be, but there is significant bias towards identifying Covid-19 as the underlying cause. The reason that they are reported as such has nothing to do with medical science and everything to do with the death registration system, created by the UK government, specifically for Covid-19. The ONS and the HM Passports Office issued guidance to doctors on completing MCCD's during the emergency period. This was a major relaxation of the standard checks and balances usually required to complete an MCCD. Doctors were informed that the World Health Organisation's International Statistical Classification of Diseases (ICD) for Covid-19 made it a notifiable disease under the Health Protection (Notification) Regulations 2010. Therefore, they informed MCCD signing doctors to do the following: Quote:Covid-19 is an acceptable direct or underlying cause of death for the purposes of completing the Medical Certificate of Cause of Death....Covid-19 is not a reason on its own to refer a death to a coroner.Covid-19 is diagnosed either from symptoms, that could be from a range of respiratory infections (including influenza and pneumonia), or RT-PCR, CT and serological tests which are frequently inaccurate or not fit for purpose. The ONS advised doctors how to add Covid-19 to MCCD's: Quote:If before death the patient had symptoms typical of COVID19 infection, but the test result has not been received, it would be satisfactory to give 'COVID-19' as the cause of death, tick Box B and then share the test result when it becomes available. In the circumstances of there being no swab, it is satisfactory to apply clinical judgement.This system more or less guarantees that Covid-19 will be recorded as the underlying cause of death. There doesn't even need to be any clear medical evidence that the decedent had Covid-19. Mark Oakford's research demonstrates that there is something seriously amiss with the statistical reporting of Covid-19 statistics. There is very little reason to put much faith in official reports of Covid-19 mortality. We are told that lockdowns are essential to avert a so-called second wave. Yet Mark found, for public sector workers who regularly interact with the public in the community, such as police officers, fire officers, park attendants and so forth, mortality was zero. Our entire way of life is being irrevocably changed because of the claims made about Covid-19. We should insists that those claims be rigorously scrutinised. -- Mark Oakford's collection of Freedom of Information replies is available here. RE: COVID19 / Coronavirus Overview - Global Research - awakened53 - 10-21-2020 Lockdown’s lethal toll laid bare: 50,000 children see surgery postponed, treatments for strokes plunge by almost 50%, and one in FIVE people were hit with depression in just one month as devastating effect of coronavirus restrictions are revealed A devastating picture of the impact of the lockdown on the nation’s health and wellbeing is today revealed in an exclusive analysis that brings together more than 130 studies. The Daily Mail audit – based on research published by medical journals, leading academics and charities – shows that the damage inflicted by the lockdown extends into every sphere of health, including cancer, heart disease, addiction, the welfare of children, domestic violence and mental illness. Experts say the analysis suggests that even after the pandemic ends, it will take years for the NHS to catch up with backlogs – and it will be too late for tens of thousands of patients. Doctors and politicians called on the Government to ensure all health services are protected if the spread of Covid-19 continues. The audit of 132 documents shows: Read More: Lockdown’s lethal toll laid bare: 50,000 children see surgery postponed |
