Omicron scare tactics
By Joel S Hirschhorn | December 17, 2021
What is the public to believe about omicron variant? The usual nutty pro-vaccine media are making a lot of fear-mongering noise about omicron.
Here are some things to keep in mind.
A very new medical research article provided compelling information that COVID vaccines are not effective against omicron. The article concluded: “The Omicron variant presents a serious threat to many existing COVID-19 vaccines and therapies.” The only data coming out is on the ineffectiveness of the vaccines. There are no data on whether ivermectin and natural immunity are equally ineffective.
This too was said: “The scientific community has chased after SARS-CoV-2 variants for a year. As more and more of them appeared, our interventions directed to the spike became increasingly ineffective. The Omicron variant has now put an exclamation mark on this point.”
Here is a really important point to keep in mind. Omicron may look like it has high transmissibility, but this may have much more to do with the ineffectiveness of vaccines than with the intrinsic nature of this variant!
See my previous article on omicron that showed research indicating intrinsic low transmissibility relative to delta, and similar to other variants:
Consider these relevant omicron facts.
In South Africa, with only 26% vaccinated, despite omicron, not only has there been no surge in COVID deaths, they are the lowest they’ve been in 18 months. This, after more than three weeks into omicron in South Africa. If screams about a surge were accurate, it would have started by now. And doctors there say the omicron cases are far less severe than presumably delta.
Fewer than 1 in 50 people with confirmed omicron cases are being hospitalized in South Africa – which suggests that the actual hospitalization to infection rate is far lower still. Why? Because so many people with omicron have such mild cases they don’t bother getting tested.
South African scientists announced the discovery of the Omicron variant on November 25. Since then, the country has had more than 230,000 Covid-19 cases, but just 377 deaths. And as of this writing, none of those deaths are confirmed to have resulted from Omicron.
The UK as of now has reported 1 (1!) omicron death, and it was “with” the virus, not necessarily from it. If there have been deaths globally from omicron, they have not been reported
When you read about mounting COVID cases in the US just remember that there normally has been a winter surge in cases. Cases can also be easily manipulated by public health agencies by running PCR tests at high cycles, creating false positive. Keep your attention on deaths in people where there has been gene sequencing to confirm omicron. Ugly and corrupt political forces controlling public health agencies have every reason to create a surge in cases so that fear can be maintained and the public made receptive to getting vaccine and booster shots.
Be patient, do not go crazy over omicron. Keep doing the many good things to maintain a healthy immune system, such as taking vitamins D and C, zinc and quercetin.
Plus, a new medical research article on ivermectin concluded that it really is very effective as a prophylactic, a genuine alternative to COVID vaccines.

Climate Science: Is it Currently Designed to Answer Questions?
By Prof. Richard S. Lindzen | Global Research | September 22, 2014
Program in Atmospheres, Oceans and Climate. Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Global Research 30 November 2009
Abstract
For a variety of inter-related cultural, organizational, and political reasons, progress in climate science and the actual solution of scientific problems in this field have moved at a much slower rate than would normally be possible.
Not all these factors are unique to climate science, but the heavy influence of politics has served to amplify the role of the other factors. By cultural factors, I primarily refer to the change in the scientific paradigm from a dialectic opposition between theory and observation to an emphasis on simulation and observational programs. The latter serves to almost eliminate the dialectical focus of the former.
Whereas the former had the potential for convergence, the latter is much less effective. The institutional factor has many components. One is the inordinate growth of administration in universities and the consequent increase in importance of grant overhead. This leads to an emphasis on large programs that never end. Another is the hierarchical nature of formal scientific organizations whereby a small executive council can speak on behalf of thousands of scientists as well as govern the distribution of ‘carrots and sticks’ whereby reputations are made and broken. The above factors are all amplified by the need for government funding.
When an issue becomes a vital part of a political agenda, as is the case with climate, then the politically desired position becomes a goal rather than a consequence of scientific research. This paper will deal with the origin of the cultural changes and with specific examples of the operation and interaction of these factors. In particular, we will show how political bodies act to control scientific institutions, how scientists adjust both data and even theory to accommodate politically correct positions, and how opposition to these positions is disposed of. … continue

Hey, just want to inform you about 1 important condition which puts NA/Europe in an disadvantage in comparison with South Africa.
In South Africa they are now in their summer period. High uv’s(to burn the virus particles) alot of natural D
So unfortunately we have to wait for more data

Point taken, and isn’t it noteworthy that the authorities/fear mongerers only promote jabs and boosters but never vitamin D.

Most definitely,
The thing is they have driven themselves into a corner which can’t get out.
Its too late to admit there are early treatment options to deal with the virus for the vulnerable.
Its too late to admit that the vaccine’s risk/performance is not favorable so they double down.
Its too late to admit that what they promoted is not what its provided
Its too late to sound like a broken record to inform the general public that the average vitamin D levels are below optimal.
If there is one thing I have learned. Is that politicians to admit they were wrong is political suicide and thus the rest of their career.
One reason might be that an opposition parties who are in general seen as unreasonable hold that position they could have retreated to, but because of the political battlefield to do that now will only allow them to be ripped into pieces by the other political parties. ergo end of the political career and perhaps regular career. (That is the political side) So its better to “Wag the Dog”
A failed bureaucrat. To lose its own position which the power he holds. Did we really assume without putting in “Confucius method” in assigning bureaucrats that they wouldn’t want to safe their own skin no matter what. They made gamble and right now it looks like they are loosing. The can’t afford that.
In my opinion the current setup of politics is promoting corrupt behavior, due to it being a thankless job with no rewards in the future. When the naïve views of politics are driven out from you the only thing that remains is how to provide security of lifestyle etcetera for the future.
In the end the government is a reflection of its people. Only caring about themselves even if somebody else has to die for it.

….”never vitamin D”……Nor Ivermectin, which has been very successful in many countries, but here in Australia, doctors have been banned from prescribing it, and No explanation as to “why”…..

You can “Flog a dead Horse” all you want to, but it won’t run. Ivermectin has been successfully used in a number of countries around the World, and has successfully stopped Corona in its tracks, but it has been banned here in Australia(but the American Congress has been inoculated with it), and, of course, the British PM held a party at his home in Downing Street and no precautions what so ever, were taken, against Corona Virus.
When you cannot trust your Prime Minister to “Practice what he Preaches” the game is up. “Corona Virus is a Fraud on mankind…..
I have a healthy disrespect for politicians generally(it comes with age, and experience), and quite frankly, I’m “Sick to death” of hearing about it, all day, every day.
