Omicron outbreak...Oh...

Life continues in Clown world. yes Israel has a very high vaccination rate so any new cases of anything will be mainly in the vaccinated, but hey...get your booster, LOL. Coming to a country near you soon: especially one telling you to rush to get a booster [Metro LINK] "Health Secretary Sajid Javid insisted that the Government will 'throw everything at' the booster programme, with GPs only focusing on urgent needs and vaccinations for the next few weeks."...for something they KNOW won't work against something they KNOW doesn't need it. A virus 'they know very little about' but know "Booster shots up to 75% effective against Omicron" [Yahoo UK] ...really?

But what's this: "Sadly at least one patient has now been confirmed to have died with Omicron"...[ALJ LINK] says Boris.

This was inevitable, but what did the patient die of?

Boris then blows it:"So I think the idea that this is somehow a milder version of the virus – I think that's something we need to set on one side – and just recognise the sheer pace at which it accelerates through the population." ...sorry? What? The idea it is milder? Why do we need to set it to one side? And we all know the 'sheer pace'...so what do you mean BoJo? Not thinking of an excuse for stricter restrictions are you? You have already obliterated any Christmas dinner/drinks trade the pubs might have gotten.

And a third jab of something we are getting VERY close to knowing causes a death surge?! FFS. Anyway, so now COVID deaths will be OMICRON deaths?

The Health Foundation report: What has happened to non-COVID mortality during the pandemic?

"In England, deaths from causes other than COVID-19 have been lower than usual for 80% of the pandemic. In January to September 2021, this was equivalent to about 34,000 (or 9%) fewer deaths than we would expect, based on historical mortality patterns."

"During the pandemic, deaths from eight of the nine leading causes of death in England were lower than usual."

They have got to keep the numbers hidden somehow, before we see 'behind the curtain'. The longer the politicians keep digging down in the hole they are in, the harder their punishment will be.

Openly obsessed oaf...

"The government is running out of time to stop messing up". "I would dearly love to see Boris grip this mess and turn things around. The time to do it is not much longer." writes UK Member of Parliament Steve Baker, Count the Cost in The Critic.

I disagree, BoJo the Clown has botched too much. Brexit (almost) is all he has to his name. The rest of the high-tax, open border, green zealotry and lockdown/ mask domestic terrorism is a few bridges too far for me. Steve Baker almost gets there too because before the final sentence posted above he writes:

It is long past time to finally, openly and honestly count the cost of lockdowns and restrictions and vote no to all these measures. That is the only way to get off this road to the hell of minute and ever changing restrictions on our lives on which the Government has embarked.

And btw, I don't give a toss about the parties they had, it is just further proof that ~~that~~ they don't believe this shit either.

Why Plan B? And Gove pushing for Plan C?! Show us the data! Well they don't because showing the data makes them look even more like politico-pharma tyrannical misfits. That link, written by 'a senior executive in a pharmaceutical company' ends with a great quote (one of many*) from Spanish philosopher Jorge Agustín Nicolás Ruiz de Santayana y Borrás (George Santayana to his mates)

Fanaticism consists in redoubling your efforts when you have forgotten your aim.

* A couple more as that Wiki page just reminded me: the omni-quoted "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it" and the sad truth about the human race:

"Only the dead have seen the end of war"

(the latter from Soliloquies in England and Later Soliloquies, readable online [LINK] at The Project Gutenberg eBook).

Objectivity, optimism over occasional obscurantism...

Empathy and Compassion over tyranny. Back in my October Opener, we read about The Great Barrington Declaration. They said: "As infectious disease epidemiologists and public health scientists we have grave concerns about the damaging physical and mental health impacts of the prevailing COVID-19 policies, and recommend an approach we call Focused Protection." "Current lockdown policies are producing devastating effects on short and long-term public health." I said:

"It is pure common sense and unfortunately a long way from the government's approach, which becomes more Monty Pythonesque every week."

Now it has been taken a step further: Collateral Global. "A global collaborative community of academics, health professionals and citizens who document, study and communicate the collateral effects of the measures taken by governments to mitigate the damage of the covid pandemic." [About]

This isn't just about Covid, it is about the effects, aftermath and long term damage of something far worse: politicians' and zealot jobsworths' reaction to it.

Opening offers...

The Daily Sceptic tells us BOB is now expanding into merchandise: "Responding to huge public demand, the celebrated artist Bob Moran is launching a range of exclusive merchandise featuring his legendary paintings. During a very dark period for humanity, Bob has been seeking to create powerful imagery which stands strong in the face of a global storm."

Bob says: "I am thrilled to finally be able to offer the opportunity to buy clothing featuring my artwork. Over the past 18 months, I have received countless requests for clothing from those on the side of freedom and decency." [Link to Bob's gallery]

It is my firm belief that we can only rescue society from this dystopian, authoritarian nightmare by getting the right messages to as many people as possible.

"I hope that these garments will be worn all over the world as a statement of defiance, a declaration of solidarity and a form of counter-propaganda. They are all well made, ethically sourced and carry high quality reproductions of my images."

[LINK to store] Just ordered my 'MSM bullshit' T shirt.

Obnubilation or overtly offing oldies?...

Hidden in plain sight...This article last week from Alex Berenson (his Wiki page editors will be made to eat their words sometime soon) caused a storm: "Vaccinated English adults under 60 are dying at twice the rate of unvaccinated people the same age"..."And have been for six months. This chart may seem unbelievable or impossible, but it's correct, based on weekly data from the British government". The fact checker shad a field day with some valid objections...these were fine and correct BUT but couldn't hole the data 'below the waterline'. The image below caused the furour and as he reported back then the graph is correct based on the data [UK Gov pdf.]

Now Alex has followed up, acknowledging the objections and answering them: the title from last week withstands the inspection, it is valid. Please read it all.

"What’s behind the rise in those deaths in the vaccinated elderly? We don’t know. But we’d better find out. Especially since we are now stuffing boosters into their arms."

Something is wrong.
