Scientists mystified, wary, as Africa avoids COVID disaster - "there is something “mysterious” going on in Africa that is puzzling scientists, said Wafaa El-Sadr, chair of global health at Columbia University. “Africa doesn’t have the vaccines and the resources to fight COVID-19 that they have in Europe and the U.S., but somehow they seem to be doing better,” she said. Fewer than 6% of people in Africa are vaccinated. For months, the WHO has described Africa as “one of the least affected regions in the world” in its weekly pandemic reports. Some researchers say the continent’s younger population — the average age is 20 versus about 43 in Western Europe — in addition to their lower rates of urbanization and tendency to spend time outdoors, may have spared it the more lethal effects of the virus so far. Several studies are probing whether there might be other explanations, including genetic reasons or past infection with parasitic diseases. On Friday, researchers working in Uganda said they found COVID-19 patients with high rates of exposure to malaria were less likely to suffer severe disease or death than people with little history of the disease... this may suggest that past infection with malaria could “blunt” the tendency of people’s immune systems to go into overdrive when they are infected with COVID-19... The impact of the coronavirus has also been relatively muted beyond Africa in poor countries like Afghanistan, where experts predicted outbreaks amid ongoing conflict would prove disastrous. Hashmat Arifi, a 23-year-old student in Kabul, said he hadn’t seen anyone wearing a mask in months, including at a recent wedding he attended alongside hundreds of guests. In his university classes, more than 20 students routinely sit unmasked in close quarters."

What goes around comes around? UK won’t suffer the kind of Covid crisis engulfing EU - "The coronavirus situation in many parts of Europe is grim, with case numbers in several countries exceeding their highs of last winter and still rising vertiginously. Hospitals are coming under pressure and restrictions are being reintroduced, along with compulsory or near-compulsory vaccination. Whereas in the summer the talk was of how irresponsible the UK was in removing all restrictions and accepting rapid spread among young adults and children, with jests about “Plague Island” and the supposed buffoonery of our political and medical leaders, Britons might now be tempted to feel that “what goes around comes around” and it was better we had our final large waves in the summer and autumn (as Boris and his medical advisers said at the time) rather than waiting, as others have done, to have a larger wave in the winter."
The covid hystericists won't be happy
Europeans Ponder Living With, Not Defeating, Covid - The New York Times - "the rough outlines of how Europe might manage its latest outbreak were taking shape, at least for now, driven by everything from politics to people’s desperation to move on, especially at Christmas. Full lockdowns have mainly given way to less intrusive — and less protective — measures... Spain’s calculus on new restrictions is not only factoring in the all-important holidays, but also legal barriers that emerged after measures taken by the government in 2020. In July, Spain’s Constitutional Court ruled that the government did not have the authority to impose the lockdown measures that began in March 2020, which restricted Spaniards from leaving their homes except for essential trips like food shopping. Instead, the judges said, the measures required a full parliamentary vote, which few see passing with a majority in the future given how controversial the previous restrictions were."

Thread by @sdbaral on Thread Reader App – Thread Reader App - "As a physician, and public health specialist, my job is to empower and educate people to make the best decisions for themselves. Risk tolerance varies by person. Some folks have extremely high risk tolerance in their lives and others less so... To me, COVID-19 is a network issue—if people in your network are more likely to be essential workers (defined as people who cannot work remotely) or they are more likely to live with people who are essential workers, then your network risk is high... while we have focused on community prevalence, it has erased the inequities that defining COVID-19. I sometimes think of this as an “all lives matter” public health response—ie, not paying attention to pre-existing inequities that increase risk for some and not others.
I have always believed that COVID-19 risks are driven far more based on where people have to be (based on where they live and work) as compared to where they choose to be (social gatherings). Ultimately, as a service provider, I’m a pragmatist at heart and in practice.
I could tell people that they should sit home and do nothing, but all that will happen is that they will still do it but just not tell me about it. To me, harm reduction isn’t being happy or ok with a behavior, but it is about understanding it to give advice if it's sought."

‘Should Be Fired On The Spot’: Fauci Wants Fox News’ Jesse Watters Canned For Conference Speech
Don't they know Science Man is infallible?
‘Toxic climate’: Hong Kong pilots buckle under ‘zero COVID’ rules - "When a Cathay Pacific pilot checked the company’s seniority list last month, he was shocked by what he saw. Within six months, he had moved up about 400 places – an indication that the same number of pilots had left the airline during the period. The departures at the airline come amid mounting frustration with Hong Kong’s stringent “zero COVID” policy, which has cut off “Asia’s World City” from the world and raised questions about its future as an aviation hub... the breaking point for many staff came after health authorities sent 130 pilots to a government-run quarantine facility after three people contracted COVID-19 in Frankfurt. At least 20 staff members submitted their resignations the same day and more are expected to follow... Cathay Pacific, however, has been unfailing in accommodating the government’s policies, which some medical experts have criticised as lacking any scientific basis. Another Cathay Pacific pilot who spoke to Al Jazeera said he could only endure one round of the airline’s “closed-loop” system before going back on temporary leave as it was “too mentally demanding”. The closed-loop system requires crew members to remain in isolation throughout three to four weeks of flying, followed by another extended period of quarantine when they return to Hong Kong... John Grant, chief analyst at British consulting firm Midas Aviation, told Al Jazeera that the government’s zero-tolerance policies threatened Hong Kong’s status, including its position as the world’s busiest cargo hub... Richard Aboulafia, an analyst at aerospace consultancy Teal Group, said Hong Kong faced deeper challenges than other aviation hubs that had seen huge declines in traffic, such as Singapore and Dubai. “Given the other enormous challenges Hong Kong faces, such as the political crackdown, the massive exodus of talent and Beijing’s broader use of hostage diplomacy, the quarantine is really just a blip”"
Post-Covid-19, World Risks Having to Pay Off ‘Immunity Debt’ - WSJ - "Doctors in France are calling it the immunity debt: When people avoided each other during the pandemic, they failed to build up the immunity against viruses that comes from normal contact. As regular life resumes, society may find payments on that debt coming due, in the form of worse-than-normal viral disease outbreaks... Dr. Cohen said the hygiene measures adopted during the pandemic bring “an immediate and indisputable benefit” because common illnesses have been suppressed. But at some point almost all children are going to get RS virus, chickenpox and viruses that cause colds, which could mean larger outbreaks when the bugs make up for lost time, he said. Mathematical models by researchers at Princeton University suggest that substantial outbreaks of the RS virus and possibly seasonal flu may occur in future years, with peak outbreaks likely occurring in the 2021-2022 winter season in the U.S."
Clearly the solution is to lock down forever
Immunity debt: Yet another cost of bad COVID-19 policies - "influenza virtually vanished from Australia at a time when only Victoria had mandated the wearing of face masks in public, so the mask promoters definitely can’t claim credit for it. The disappearance of influenza also wasn’t due to a lack of testing; the number of laboratory tests for influenza increased in 2020... After the unprecedented winter lull, RSV infection rates in Australia skyrocketed in spring, shooting far above the levels typically seen in winter, and accompanied by a surge in diagnoses of bronchiolitis, a potentially serious (even fatal) condition which is most commonly caused by RSV... As the GPIP position paper explains, frequent exposure to pathogens (such as bacteria and viruses) trains the innate immune system – the first-responder arm of the immune system – to be more efficient at finding and destroying invaders. Children generally have greater exposure to pathogens than adults due to mixing in larger groups than most adults, as well as their less-than-stellar personal hygiene habits. This heightened exposure results in intensive training of their innate immune systems, which primes them for more robust immune responses against commonly-encountered pathogens, such as RSV and influenza viruses... the French authors worry that the lack of immune training caused by nonpharmaceutical interventions to control the spread of SARS-CoV-2 may lead to an increased rate of allergic and autoimmune disease further down the track, congruent with the “hygiene hypothesis”... Just weeks before the first case of COVID-19 was identified in Wuhan, China, the World Health Organisation held the Global Vaccine Safety Summit. One of the speakers was Heidi Larson, director of the Vaccine Confidence Project, which is funded by pharmaceutical companies, the secretive globalist think-tank Chatham House, and a gaggle of not-for-profits and NGOs with deep ties to Big Pharma. During her address, Larson made the following, rather disturbing comments (beginning at 1:29:50 in the final video block): “I think that one of our biggest challenges is… we’re in a unique position in human history, where we’ve shifted the human population to vaccine-induced, to dependency on vaccine-induced immunity… We’re in a very fragile state now. We have developed a world that is dependent on vaccinations.” Let that statement about our “fragile state” sink in for a moment. What Larson is alluding to is that the robust ‘herd immunity’ which in the past was developed through natural infection has been traded in for a much more tenuous – but highly profitable – vaccine-induced immunity."
How the Delta Variant Defeated Biden's White House - The Atlantic - "Joe Biden’s “mission accomplished” moment came on the Fourth of July. Standing behind a lectern adorned with the presidential seal, he peered out at the hundreds of maskless guests drinking beer and eating pulled pork on the South Lawn of the White House. “Thanks to our heroic vaccine effort, we’ve gained the upper hand against this virus,” Biden said. “We can live our lives, our kids can go back to school, our economy is roaring back.” Surely there was reason to celebrate. When he’d taken office six months earlier, more than 3,000 people were dying from COVID-19 each day; the death toll was now down to about 200 a day. When Donald Trump left Washington, D.C., on the morning of Biden’s inauguration, new cases were averaging 195,000 a day; by July 4, that figure had plunged to about 12,000... Within days of Biden’s speech, the highly contagious Delta variant would become the dominant strain of the virus in the United States, accounting for more than half of infections... “In some ways, [Biden] has never been able to recover from the politicization of the virus by the Trump administration,” Senator Chris Murphy of Connecticut told me... Even as Biden vows to let science steer the fight against COVID-19, politics also seems to have influenced his strategy... Kathleen Sebelius, health and human services secretary under former President Barack Obama, told me that she faced pressure from the White House to close schools in 2009 amid the H1N1 flu outbreak. The CDC didn’t believe nationwide school closings were necessary, she said, because “the virus was not breaking out simultaneously everywhere.”... A similar face-off is unfolding right now over booster shots... Two respected vaccine regulators working at the FDA, Marion Gruber and Phil Krause, submitted their resignations last week in part because the White House unveiled the booster program before the FDA could review all the data to make sure it was justified... What would have been the reaction if Trump had done something similar, say by laying out a vaccine program months before the FDA had even approved a vaccine? Answering his own rhetorical question, Giroir said there would have been “outrage over political pressure on FDA.”... “Whether it’s the Pfizer, Moderna, or Johnson & Johnson vaccine, you consistently have excellent protection against severe illness,” Offit said. “That hasn’t changed. If that hasn’t changed, then why the need for the third dose?” Indeed, the focus on booster shots may be undermining confidence in the very vaccines the White House is promoting. Offit said he’s heard from people who now worry that if they don’t quickly get a booster shot, they’ll lose their immunity. “We’ve scared people into thinking they’re no longer protected”... Anyone holding high elective office naturally wants to tout their successes. But one of Biden’s promises was to level with Americans: In his inaugural address, he said that leaders must “defend the truth” and “defeat the lies.” “When the president said on July 4 that we’re declaring independence from the coronavirus, that was so reminiscent of Trump saying it’s going to be over in two weeks,” Carlos del Rio, a professor of medicine at Emory University, told me. “I would have expected this White House not to do that, and I was disappointed that they did.”"
From September. Imagine taking credit for summer and Operation Warp Speed, and imagine ignoring the politicisation of the virus by liberals (most notably, dissing the vaccine)
Way more young people in Ontario died from effects of lockdown than of COVID itself - " It is especially noteworthy that the numbers are only representative of overdoses, poisoning and alcohol deaths, and not suicides, murders and other things that the agency says " often require lengthy investigation" and thus are not yet included. Also to be considered are the consequences of delayed surgeries and treatments for other health issues."
Clearly the lockdown was not strict enough
Sabrina Maddeaux: Lockdowns are killing young Canadians - "StatCan found opioid-related hospitalizations have been highest among those with lower levels of income and education, who are unemployed or out of the labour force, who self-identify as Indigenous, who live in lone parent households, and who spend more than 50 per cent of their income on housing. The data also found high levels of stress among women, those aged 35 to 44, LGBTQ+ communities, and those who live with children under the age of 15. It’s no coincidence these groups are also among the most likely to be impacted by closures of businesses, community supports and schools. As shocking as this latest report is, it comes with a caveat that means things are very likely worse than they seem... National modelling predicts a further increase in opioid overdose deaths through at least the first half of 2022 –– and that doesn’t even account for increasing rates of alcohol poisoning deaths. The other thing about substance abuse and addiction is that, even if they don’t result in death, they don’t simply disappear once stressors evaporate. Restrictions may eventually lift, but the substance-abuse issues that began or worsened during lockdowns will stick around for life, destroying livelihoods, relationships, and families in their wake. The potential collateral damage is, to use a term we’re now all intimately familiar with, exponential. These are not easy deaths. We are constantly asked, and rightfully so, by medical professionals and media to imagine the scene inside COVID-19 hospital wards. To picture the patients on ventilators, struggling to breathe, that privacy laws won’t allow us to see. It only seems fair to ask the same for the young and the vulnerable, many dying alone in apartments or on streets from overdoses; skin turning blue, gurgling and seizing. Also uncaptured by StatCan are the skyrocketing suicide attempts and self-harm rates among the very youngest Canadians. After last winter’s widespread lockdowns, some hospitals saw the number of youth admitted for suicide attempts triple within a four-month period. Those hospitalized during this period also generally stayed longer due to more serious attempts. Eating disorders in youth were described by doctors as “unprecedented,” and some children’s hospitals saw referrals increase by 90 per cent in the same four-month period. Children’s hospitals in Ontario considered transferring older teens to adult hospitals as they became too full to function. Our nation’s younger generations are self-harming and dying in unprecedented numbers that appear to directly correlate with closures, and yet few seem willing to acknowledge this lest it result in hard conversations that don’t include lockdowns as acceptable recourse. Meanwhile, Omicron data from South Africa, the United Kingdom and the United States continues to point toward significantly less hospitalization and death. Preliminary Canadian data suggests the same pattern, combined with anecdotal reports that some of the hardest hit hospitals from earlier waves, like Brampton Civic Hospital in Ontario, are down to only two COVID patients in the ICU. It’s extremely difficult to reconcile this growing pool of evidence with calls for additional restrictions when we know what the cost of those restrictions will be... At what point do COVID hospitalizations and deaths among older generations stop justifying the growing sacrifice of Canada’s young?"
Since lockdowns don't reduce deaths, lockdowns are just pissing in the wind
Carson Jerema: Forget lockdowns — the pandemic endgame is already here - "What if we won but we were too scared to admit it? Two years into this COVID nightmare, governments are still relying on rising case counts to justify closing businesses, shutting schools and trying to regulate what people do in their own homes, despite growing evidence that even though cases are soaring, hospital admissions are not rising at previous rates... framing of the pandemic as a “war” has always been wrong. It was language used to justify intrusions into our daily lives, but it also set up the false idea that the virus would somehow surrender and we would be able to claim victory. The language of war also serves to justify ongoing assaults on civil liberties because the fight continues ever onward, and the promised return to regular life is always just out of reach. If our leaders had simply laid out the case for getting vaccinated, without embellishing or making predictions they had no business making, there might be less frustration, less panic and less reliance on restrictions. The vaccines work well enough that they make their own argument. Instead, anxious to promise an end to the “war,” politicians oversold and continue to oversell what would be accomplished with widespread vaccination, dismissing new waves as “a pandemic of the unvaccinated.” A typical example comes from U.S. President Joe Biden, who falsely said in July that, “You’re not going to get COVID if you have these vaccinations.” In Canada, provinces set dates when most or all pandemic measures would be lifted that were tied to vaccination rates, most notably Alberta Premier Jason Kenney’s “open for good” promise last summer. And on Sunday, a clearly oblivious Prime Minister Justin Trudeau tweeted “let’s get out of this pandemic – for good,” after encouraging people to get their shots. So convinced our leaders were that victory was in sight that they dismissed almost out of hand the need for boosters until Omicron forced them to scramble, just as they had similarly rejected rapid tests, until the variant made them essential. The message has been clear: get vaccinated and return to normal. But when normal failed to materialize, governments, especially Ontario’s and Quebec’s, began reimposing restrictions as if vaccinations had never happened in the first place... Even though the new variant still doesn’t quite pass freely among the vaccinated, it passes freely enough to mock any notion that herd immunity or “COVID zero” are actually achievable, or that vaccine mandates are logical policy. What should have been emphasized from the start is simply that vaccination slows the spread of the disease and reduces the chance of severe illness and death. “Get the shot to reduce the spread” or “get the shot to stay healthy” doesn’t promise a return to pre-pandemic life, but it does clarify what is possible. The fact that lockdowns are even being considered when much of the population has some immunity isn’t much different than the reasoning of some vaccine refusers who claim that because the shots aren’t 100 per cent effective, they are somehow rendered useless... The fact that the spread of the virus hasn’t been blunted further is no justification to continue intruding in peoples’ lives, damaging the economy and the well-being of school children, and delaying other needed medical procedures."
FUREY: A former military leader breaks down what Ontario must do now | Toronto Sun - "When retired Lt.-Col. David Redman wrote Alberta’s 2005 Alberta pandemic influenza response plan, he received input from 10 deputy ministers. Only one of them was the deputy minister of health. The rest represented other ministries, other sectors. That’s because a pandemic is a whole-of-society emergency. Health care shouldn’t be the only voice at the table... the mistakes all started when Ontario Premier Doug Ford put the chief medical officer in charge and basically ignored the existence of Emergency Management Ontario. “They have not been allowed to do anything,” Redman said of EMO, which has previously been expected to take charge during floods, tornadoes, terrorism, nuclear accidents and, yes, pandemics. While they’re not specialists in any of those fields, they are tasked with the overall co-ordination of the response... During Redman’s decades in the Canadian Armed Forces, he was involved in responses to disasters across the world and has seen very few best practices rolled out to deal with COVID-19. “In two years, the people that are in charge have completely shown themselves incapable of even managing their own system”... Redman described EMO as “the glue that binds” and laments that “the doctors being placed in charge has meant we have ignored every other sector.” This is how we’ve gotten to a point that schools have once again been shut in Ontario as a response to there being around 300 people in the ICU with COVID-19. The 2018 federal pandemic influenza response plan put together by Dr. Theresa Tam’s office not long before COVID-19 began said that even in scenarios much more severe than the current one, places aren’t shut down by government. Instead, there is a priority on minimizing societal disruption. Redman said that the mission should be “to ensure the minimum impact of COVID-19 on Ontario,” and that this is what EMO would do. “Because the current mission statement is to ensure the minimum impact of COVID-19 on the medical system — two different missions”... That’s one thing we haven’t seen much of in Ontario: a solutions-based approach. Instead, we’re repeatedly told how impossible it is to get new beds, to find new nurses, to deal with surge capacity or implement any other creative options. Rather than innovate, Ontario’s health-care administrators and senior bureaucrats have been given permission by Ford to lazily rely on lockdowns as a control level whenever challenges come their way. Redman said because the overwhelming majority of people who have died of COVID-19 are the elderly with multiple underlying conditions, and because COVID-19 has proven to be less severe than influenza in lower age brackets, it’s long overdue that we do away with broad-based restrictions and develop a more targeted approach."
Common sense is easily defeated by hysteria
Harry Rakowski: COVID-19 restrictions in Ontario don’t make sense and won’t work - "When faced with crisis management the easy choice for governments is to do something quickly in response to perceived public pressure or political risk. This gives the illusion of being in control, but often leads to hasty and unwise choices with unintended consequences... We can’t stop the Omicron wave from infecting a large percentage of our population since it is so contagious. We can blunt its effects to some degree but the cure shouldn’t be worse than the disease. It makes no sense to close in person restaurant dining. All diners and staff must already be fully vaccinated. Even during earlier, more dangerous waves of the pandemic, dining with masks had a very low associated risk. Closing schools leads to mental health issues for children, inequalities in education, unreasonable strain on parents and challenging workforce reductions. It is safer for children to be in school rather than at home. Similarly, fitness centres provide an essential way for promoting health and wellness far beyond any small risk. Capacity restrictions on large sports venues of 20,000 exuberant shouting people make sense. Excessive restrictions on retail outlets catering to the vaccinated are not based on science. Closures if necessary should be strategic and selective based on outbreaks and risk... Ron DeSantis is a controversial Harvard and Yale educated Republican Governor of Florida. He has said many things that I disagree with and has vociferously refused to mandate any restrictions on Floridians. While this was not always in my view the right decision, he is currently riding a high wave of approval for his actions. Florida may have had a rocky summer but now is doing better than most states with tougher restrictions... Warm weather may help in Florida, but promoting vaccination particularly for those at higher risk is likely the key to better outcomes. It isn’t about restrictions. Very few dining venues in Florida even check vaccination status or mandate masks. Stores are fully open, venues are full. Hospitalizations and deaths are much higher in the northeast... Anthony Fauci, an outspoken and much criticized hero of this pandemic, has not recommended the shutdowns we are seeing in Ontario and Quebec, despite even higher strains on the U.S. health-care system. This is a very challenging time to be a health care advisor or to be in government. Criticism will come whatever path you take. However, leadership is about doing the right thing at the right time and in the right way. Current decisions are based on fear not facts. Current shutdowns are wrong, will lead to further mistrust of government and, even worse, won’t work."
Covid hystericists will say that the writer is a cardiologist and so is unqualified, but approvingly cite Bill Gates
End mass jabs and treat Covid like flu, says ex-head of vaccine taskforce - "The former chief of the UK’s vaccine taskforce says the mass vaccination programme should end after the booster campaign – and Covid-19 should be treated as an endemic virus like the flu. Dr Clive Dix thinks the UK should focus on “stopping progression to severe disease in vulnerable groups”... He called for a change in approach and a return to a “new normality”. “We should consider when we stop testing and let individuals isolate when they are not well and return to work when they feel ready, in the same way we do in a bad influenza season,” he said. Mr Dix urged ministers to support research into Covid immunity beyond antibodies to include white blood cells such as B-cells and T-cells (white blood cells), which could be used to build vaccines for vulnerable people specific to Covid strains... Dr Dix’s call to end mass vaccination comes as vaccine manufacturer Moderna’s chief executive said a fourth dose may be needed this autumn as booster protection wanes."
Another dangerous anti-vaxxer and covidiot!
This advice from the U.S. government during the 1918 Spanish Flu outbreak is "more holistic than everything we have been fed for the past 2 years" - "' Influenza is caused by a germ, the influenza bacilus, which lives but a short time outside of the body. Fresh air and sunshine kill the germ in a few minutes.'
Imagine if the government had told people this with Covid. UV light vaporizes the 'Rona, so closing parks while locking people in their homes (especially for an aerosolized virus) was about the dumbest thing governments could have done. Who knows how many vulnerable people were infected because of that backwards thinking?...
'Protect yourself from infection, keep well, and do not get hysterical over the epidemic.'
In 2021, our governments are actively encouraging hysteria!...
'You can do much to lessen the danger to yourself by keeping in good physical condition.'
Around 90% of all deaths have been in nations where at least half the population is obese.
Outside of age, obesity (and thus health of the heart, lungs, and other organs) is perhaps the most crucial factor in outcome. But instead of telling young, healthy people to go work and exercise, we kept them on their couches for a year eating free donuts as a reward for a vaccine... The government document from 1918 also ends with a suggestion to take readily-available aspirin... and hey, looks like you can probably do that for Covid too!!"
Does aspirin save lives in patients with COVID-19? - "This is the only randomised controlled study on aspirin use in patients with COVID-19, which observed that aspirin did not reduce 28-day mortality or the risk of progressing to invasive mechanical ventilation or death. There was a small increase in the rate of being discharged alive within 28 days, bleeding risk and slight reduction in the thrombotic events and duration of hospitalisation among the aspirin group."
