America is reopening big time, as the percentage of Americans vaccinated begins to move upwards of 50%, and new cases of Covid-19 plummet. Airports and roads are congested once again. Restaurants and bars are bringing the crowds indoors. Heck, Vermont, a state with among the most stringent anti-covid quarantine regimen in the country now says bar hopping is okay as it nears an 80% vaccination rate.
But America’s path to coveted “herd immunity”–President Biden has set a goal of 70% of Americans to be vaccinated by July 4 as part of a full return to normalcy– is littered with all kinds of potential and theoretical obstacles. Will corporations make vaccination a condition of employment, as Delta Airlines has done? Will more colleges and universities join with the dozens that have made vaccination a condition of enrollment next fall? Will other organizations that cater to large groups gathering indoors require vaccination?
For the Boston Red Sox, the questions are here and now: How will the team get J.D. Martinez, its star slugger, to get on board with the vaccination protocols? That question illustrates the controversy that has bogged the country down for months, and threatens to continue dividing Americans, even as the vaccination drive at 50% success has enabled the U.S. to finally break free of the worst of the Covid pandemic’s deaths and economic paralysis…..as other major countries from Brazil to India to Japan remain in the throes of Covid outbreaks.
Here is the ‘problem’ associated with J.D. Martinez, as I understand it from reading newspaper sports pages: Major League Baseball has set rules that allow teams considered fully vaccinated (85% or more of players, coaches, and key staff) to discontinue wearing masks in the dugout and bullpen, to resume non-baseball team activities like clubhouse card games, and the opportunity to bring family members on road trips. For teams that don’t make the 85% level of fully vaccinated, there are serious risks as potentially affects team success—most critically, unvaccinated players are subject to seven-day quarantine periods if they come in close contact with someone who tests positive for COVID-19. By contrast, vaccinated players do not need to enter close contact quarantine unless they become symptomatic.
So back to J.D. Martinez…..If the Red Sox remain below the 85% vaccination rate, as it currently is, the team could lose him, and other unvaccinated players, for a week of quarantine, at a critical point in the season. Right now, Martinez is number four in the league in batting average, number six in runs batted in, and number nine in home runs….and the Red Sox have been in first place in their division most of the season thus far. In other words, he’s pretty much the Red Sox’ best hitter, and he makes a big difference in their fortunes. Moreover, to the extent he encourages younger players to get vaccinated, he helps the team get to the 85% level.
This isn’t the first time the slugger, who is paid in excess of $20 million a year on a multiyear deal, has gone against the medical/political grain. Back in early 2019, he was the only Latino player or player of color to join in a visit to the Trump White House in honor of winning the 2018 World Series. (He’s shown in the photo here shaking hands with then-President Trump.) In the current situation, it should be pointed out, Martinez isn’t playing the role of big-league anti-vaxxer; rather he has been coy on the subject. A Boston Globe reporter recently reported: “I asked J.D. Martinez if he considered it important for the Red Sox to gain that same advantage as other teams, as it could make a difference in their season. He acknowledged that’s been mentioned to the players
“ ‘That’s not a team decision,’ Martinez said. ‘That’s a personal decision. That’s to each his own. Everyone has the right to believe and to think what they want to think about their body and what they’re putting into their body.
‘It’s one of those things where it would be nice to have that kind of advantage. But it is what it is, you know?’ “
The reporter wasn’t satisfied. “So I finally just asked Martinez if he were vaccinated. He declined to answer.”
Such answers aren’t satisfactory to many Red Sox fans, who tend to feel the Red Sox should do anything and everything necessary to win games. They quickly forgave the manager, Alex Cora, who led the Red Sox to a world championship n 2018, when he was suspended for the 2020 baseball season as punishment for being involved in a cheating scandal while he was with the Houston Astros in 2017; he was brought back to manage the Red Sox this season.
And the fact that many of the Major League players are making millions of dollars each year is another irritant, as a number explained in comments following a Boston Globe article:
Said one fan: “Unbelievable. Employees earning millions of dollars risking the success of the team because they don’t want a jab? Seriously? Make vaccinations mandatory.”
Another: “ ‘Explain’ to the stubborn young studs that, for the good of the team’s stats, they are going to LOVE the arrangements at Double A ball.”
A third fan: “It seems ridiculous that the team resists vaccination when one of their own, Eduardo Rodriguez, missed much of last season with a serious covid complication. If a healthy athlete can be afflicted with myocarditis after covid, why would his teammates continue to avoid a simple, well proven prevention?”
It’s often said that baseball highlights issues in American society before they become widely apparent. In that event, sports and medicine as politics is likely going to be with us for a good while.
So we should all do what the “experts” tell us to do? I don’t think that’s advisable and here’s why.
A warning in Proverbs to “be not with gluttonous eaters of meat” is relevant to our current coronavirus problem. Most of the meat consumed by humans these days is defective as it is overly rich in linoleic acid and arachidonic acid. Here is the problem.
Excerpt from a 1992 Review by German scientist Olaf Adam entitled Immediate and long range effects of the uptake of increased amounts of arachidonic acid:
“Within the last 50 years, changing nutritional habits in Western communities led to a fourfold increase in the supply of dietary arachidonic acid, provoked by the same increase in the consumption of meat and meat products.”
This next excerpt is from page 2 of the Introduction to a 1996 Symposium entitled Biological Effects of Dietary Arachidonic Acid:
“Arachidonic acid is the most biologically active unsaturated fatty acid in higher animals. Its concentration in membranes and its magnitude of effects depend on its amount, or that of its precursors and analogues, in the diet. The tendency of the field of nutrition to ignore the role of dietary arachidonic acid will optimistically be reversed in the future.”
A quarter century has elapsed and the whole World is spooked by a cold virus. The COVID-19 pandemic wouldn’t have been a big deal 60 years ago at the beginning of the anti-saturated fat campaign. But now, a substantial portion of humanity has become metabolically unhealthy and vulnerable to COVID-19 infections and complications. Ironically, recently published research suggests American Heart Association dietary advice to swap saturated fats for linoleic acid has created this crisis.
By way of illustration, in a 1986 article entitled ‘Linoleic acid content in adipose tissue and coronary heart disease’, in the four European regions studied, researchers observed that heart disease mortality was lowest in Italy where the proportion of linoleic acid in adipose tissue was high and saturated fat low. In contrast, heart disease mortality was highest in Finland where adipose linoleic acid content was low and saturated fat content high.
In plain language, high linoleic acid content in fat cells is associated with lower mortality from heart attack. However, In Italy, there have been 2,064 COVID-19 deaths/ million population. In Finland, 167 deaths/million pop. In Norway, 143 deaths/million population. Why the dramatic difference? That can be attributed, at least in part, to higher saturated fat intake and lower linoleic acid intake in the Nordic countries. Excerpts from a June 8, 2020 MedPageToday article about the Role of Unsaturated Fats in Severe COVID-19:
“Humans have 1 to 5 kilograms of linoleic acid stored in fat. In this stored form it’s safe, but it’s released by lipases in pancreatitis and in COVID-19…. It has been known for a long time that the composition of the fat we store in adipose tissue takes several years to change in response to changes in diet. Dietary habits, that is, the fats we cook in such as butter and different types of oil, as well as the foods we eat, are strongly determined by culture, region, tradition, and what we’re taught is good or bad, though there is little evidence for the latter. In the long term, avoiding high unsaturated fatty acid intake may help with future pandemics like COVID-19, and severe pancreatitis or similar disease scenarios.”
Where does arachidonic acid fit into the picture? Chicken meat furnishes about 36% of the animal protein consumed by humans. So, grain-fed chicken meat is a major source of both linoleic acid and arachidonic acid. Per capita chicken meat consumption appears to be related to COVID-19 mortality. For example, neighboring countries Iraq and Iran have different per capita chicken consumption and correspondingly different COVID-19 mortality.
Iraq – COVID-19 mortality: 392 deaths/1M pop Poultry meat consumption 2018: 9.44 kg Iran – COVID-19 mortality: 916 deaths/1M pop Poultry meat consumption 2018: 27.2 kg
The difference is even more striking for African countries.
Uganda – COVID-19 mortality: 7 deaths/1M pop Poultry meat consumption 2018: 1.16 kg Botswana – COVID-19 mortality: 323 deaths/1M pop Poultry meat consumption 2018: 3.93 kg Namibia – COVID-19 mortality: 286 deaths/1M pop Poultry meat consumption 2018: 9.91 kg
South Africa – COVID-19 mortality: 926deaths/1M pop Poultry meat consumption 2018: 42 kg
In the Western Hemisphere:
Haiti – COVID-19 mortality: 24 deaths/1M pop Poultry meat consumption 2018: 8.65 kg Dominican Republic – COVID-19: 329 deaths/1M pop Poultry meat consumption 2018: 37.2 kg
The cartoon caption reads, “Honey, come look. I’ve found some information all the world’s top scientists and doctors missed.”
According to the top scientists and doctors, the jab is the only way to defeat the virus. They missed a better option; correct the defects in the food supply so that humanity can become metabolically healthy again.
Typo in this sentence: In the current situation, it should be pointed ouy, Martinez isn’t playing the role of big-league anti-vaxxer;
Thanks, it’s fixed.
all very interesting = about the anarchodonic and linoleic acid, but Occam’s Razor tells us the better answer, is : there is no pandemic. There never was. Comparing all-cause mortality country by country, demonstrates it’s entirely a media myth. for instance: more individuals died in 2017, in Canada, than died in 2020? so where’s your pandemic?!
Eliminate fearmongering predicated on PCR test results … proven bogus … and the daily spellcasting of “cases cases cases” … the thing is seen as a coverstory for usurpation of totalitarian power over the economy.
honest examination of the proofs of foreknowledge of socalled SARS2 Covid19 proves it’s calculated medical fascism for an ulterior evil end.
You sneered that the complaints about deaths + injuries from the Poisoned Needle don’t refer to an official source, Mr Gumpert? How about EudraVigilance = as authoritative as it gets
The European Union database of suspected drug reaction reports is EudraVigilance, which also tracks reports of injuries and deaths following the experimental COVID-19 “vaccines.” this database maintained at EudraVigilance is only for countries in Europe who are part of the European Union (EU), which comprises 27 countries. The total number of countries in Europe is much higher, almost twice as many, numbering around 50. So as high as these numbers are, they do NOT reflect all of Europe. The actual number in Europe who are reported dead or injured due to COVID-19 shots would be much higher than what we are reporting here. The EudraVigilance database reports that through July 3, 2021 there are 17,503 deaths and 1,687,527 injuries reported following injections of four experimental COVID-19 shots. From the total of injuries recorded, half of them (837,588 ) are serious, life-threatening injuries.
If that’s not a story worthy of attention by the Complete Patient, what is?
https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/human-regulatory/research-development/pharmacovigilance/eudravigilance
There is no such thing as vaccine-created herd immunity despite the continued drumbeat to achieve it. There never was. It is pure myth. It’s why classrooms of children can and do still get measles outbreaks despite almost full vaccine compliance. Really, it’s just a method of guilt-tripping people into taking the jab. Second, the Salk Institute has stated that Covid is primarily a vascular disease and that the spike protein is the main cause of the vascular degradation. The very same spike protein that these gene therapy shots instruct your body to make. The “vaccine” is telling your cells to manufacture the very protein that causes vascular failure and death. Third, to date there have been over 4400 deaths reported, directly from the vaccine, and over 21500 serious injuries. All voluntarily reported through VAERS. Voluntary reporting means many are NOT reported. The EU tracks deaths better and they have exceeded 8500. No vaccine should be mandatory and no one should be pressured into taking an experimental gene therapy product with no long term studies and a short term record of causing death and serious injuries. If a person feels that this shot will protect them, why should they care if someone else is or isn’t compliant? They are still protected, right? This is where the “herd immunity” baloney enters the argument. You are taking the shot to save grandma down the street—yeah, sure. Requiring children, who have a 99.97% survival rate from Covid, to take a dangerous experimental gene therapy experiment is criminal (but highly profitable). Josef Mengele would be proud of what Big Pharma has been able to accomplish with a huge heap of help from the 24/7 fear-based media. Expect many, many more highly profitable experimental fast-tracked vaccines in the pipeline. Pharma has found the pot of gold.
Each of us that live a life of purpose finds our mountain to die on. That same mountain can drive you crazy !
2.8 million people die each year in the USA. That is nearly 8,000 per day.
Nearly 900 people per 100,000 die. https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/deaths.htm
The reason the USA is rapidly emerging from Covid etc is because so many have had it and so math are vaccinated. It’s very simple.
So thank those that got the shot and those that got sick and recovered. And let’s get on with life.
I am a proud Modena guy and have had no problems. No extra arms growing. No green skin! Magnets don’t stick to me. GPS systems don’t track me. I feel great. So do all the rest of my family and friends both Republicans and Democrats that have saved our country from the likes of India.
A subset of Americans have really chosen a weird mountain to fight.
But America is plagued with conspiracy starring with the very popular “Big Lie”. The fact is Trump lost the 2020 election and that’s a fact. No number of additional audits will change that but…. a huge numbed of Americans believe he is still president and believe the big lie. It’s truly amazing.
Nothing surprises me anymore. Lies grow so quick and so big …. the bigger the lie the faster in grows.
So my advice. Calm yourselves down. Our country is not trying to kill you. Trump is vaccinated and so is our president.
Get over it. Find something more relevant and a mountain more important to die on
Like access to good whole unprocessed foods that build the immune system and reduce obesity and other diseases. That’s a far better mission to obsess over.
disappointing to see Mark McAffee right back at it mere days after posting a list of topics verbotten personally. That Trump Obsessive Syndrome is a bitch. A few doses of invermectictin may help. Since he won’t get professional help for his double-minded-ness, I guess it falls to me to make available the facts … to those who still care about what used to be called “the real world”
I remind readers that Mr McAffee is a dyed in the wool Red Diaper Baby. A lifelong comsimp exploiting his prestige in the Raw milk community for spinning the Central Party Line.
for those able to think for themselves, best short rebuttal, is > as explained by Gary D Bennett at the URL below. Foreknowledge of the ScamDemic goes back at least 2 decades. The argument that it was contrived for an ulterior, evil purpose, is irrefutable for those who will get the facts and think for yourselves.

We don’t know how lucky we are in this country. As Americans engage in denial and agonize about the Covid vaccines, South Americans are heading here in droves to take advantage of vaccines unavailable in their countries (which are gripped by Covid).
“Frustrated with the lagging pace of vaccine campaigns at home and seeing a surplus of doses in the United States — where tens of millions of Americans have opted not to get inoculated — wealthy and middle-class Latin Americans with American tourist visas have been flocking to the United States in recent weeks to score a Covid-19 shot.
“It’s like a dream,” said Ms. Gonzalez, who got her shot in Miami in April.
“The access has proved a bonanza for the privileged in countries where the virus continues to take a brutal toll — even if many, including those who are benefiting, struggle with the fact that vaccine tourism exacerbates the inequality that has worsened the pandemic’s toll…..”
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/29/world/americas/latin-america-vaccine-tourism.html?action=click&module=Spotlight&pgtype=Homepage
David,
It is certainly amazing how the masses tend to flock towards participating in an arbitrary ritual… As I previously stated, the antivaccine movements is growing on the backs of those who believed in “vaccines” and paid the unfortunate price for that belief. Indeed, and that fear driven belief is so overpowering in some cases that even if a person or their loved ones experience a serious complication or even dies due to a vaccine injection, they still hold to the belief that those injection are good. There is nothing good about them… their use represents an invasive, toxic and unnatural invasion of the body and are accordingly the most insidious form of abuse ever perpetrated on humanity!
The following is not a rare nor isolated incident…
https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/rfk-jr-the-defender-podcast-cherie-romney-17-year-old-pfizer-vaccine-blood-clots/?fbclid=IwAR1glYBiMdHNYc7MYTFUmoiRRSyuqWPVej2Os_CUubhnaUgLBNM1snn3nCk
David,
The following Forbes article paints a different picture then what you are suggesting. If complacency is indeed to blame, which I doubt, then the USA could be in for some rough days ahead despite vaccinations… The cyclical nature and rapid rate of mutation of viruses will ultimately tell the tale.
“Some Countries With The Highest Vaccination Rates Are Facing A Surge In Covid Deaths And Infections–Experts Say Complacency Is Partly To Blame”
https://www.forbes.com/sites/roberthart/2021/05/29/some-countries-with-the-highest-vaccination-rates-are-facing-a-surge-in-covid-deaths-and-infectionsexperts-say-complacency-is-partly-to-blame/?sh=43b73a2e4457&fbclid=IwAR0PRPaBzvq45nk7hxuJB3wwvo3JZCDOHVpd3xNby-KZDTGdApWxv6zJADI
Certainly it’s possible we’ll have some kind resurgence–we are in new territory here. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try to provide protection from a terrible pandemic that has killed more than 3 million worldwide.
And by the way, if you read through the article you linked to, it says this near the end, after pointing out the various highly vaccinated small countries that have seen a resurgence: “The efficacy of the vaccines used is also a pertinent worry, with a number of highly vaccinated countries having made heavy use of Chinese vaccines.”
David,
This is not new territory; humans have been dealing with the cyclical nature of disease/viruses for thousands of years. Recent human interventions such as vaccinations merely encourage new variants with the latest so-named mRNA and viral vector “vaccines” likely being no exception.
When I said “new territory,” I was referring to the Covid vaccines. Of course, vaccines have been used since the 1800s, and have helped rid us of such scourges as smallpox, diphtheria, typhoid, polio, and others.
As I already stated. There is NO such thing as vaccine created herd immunity. No proof at all of such. No need to thank any vaccinated person because they are NOT immune. Even Moderna’s own SEC filings for this vaccine state that the trials don’t prove immunity or prevent transmission. Only possibly lessen symptoms. Be proud that you are gullible. You feel fine now but who knows what the long term brings for short term false security. There is currently a 1million dollar prize being offered to anyone that can show proof of isolation of the Sars-Co2 virus. No takers to date. You may want to read this:https://andrewkaufmanmd.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Statement-of-Virus-Isolation-SOVI-by-Morell-Cowan-and-Kaufman.pdf No one has isolated this alleged virus. Show me proof. These shots are NOT vaccines. They are gene therapies asking your cells to manufacture the very protein alleged to cause the damage to people’s vascular and respiratory systems. I could give two sh*ts about Trump. My facts come right from the vaccine maker and those who actually study these shots, not the propaganda from CDC and FDA via CNN. Read The Rise of Tyranny to learn just how corrupt the FDA is. They rubber stamp just about anything that rolls out of the Big Pharma plants and consider Big Pharma to be their “clients” to serve rather than as any kind of watchdog agency. Any scientist that speaks out against a drug/vaccine approval is quickly silenced or removed. Another story on the effects of this non-vaccine: https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2021/05/30/covid-19-vaccines-causing-damage.aspx?ui=d4ed582ca5e45b94098e10dd13d34aa3d81fdbbedc7b1ca754ddbaaa06a37568&sd=20200817&cid_source=dnl&cid_medium=email&cid_content=art1HL&cid=20210530_HL2&mid=DM897878&rid=1170771703
It should always be the person’s choice.
You have a link to that SEC filing from Moderna?
The links you provide are from prominent anti-vaxxers who have little credibility on the vaccine front.
Oh man, “prominent anti-vaxxers”….so anyone that dares to question injections of these cocktails are prominent anti-vaxxers. Teens and adolescents are now developing myocarditis and pericarditis from these injections but they are A-OK for kids according to the FDA(never saw a drug they didn’t embrace). Do you really expect media companies and politicians that are bought and paid for by Big pharma to question their golden goose? So anyone who speaks out against these is not to be trusted while those being sponsored by the makers are the vanguards of truth. Fauci funded Moderna but Fauci is beloved and trusted and his NIAID is a part patent holder. Financial incentive to promote this technology? I will correct my statement: The SEC filing states that their technology is a gene therapy technology but in their clinical trials, they made it clear that they could not measure the presence or absence of the virus and could not measure the presence or absence of transmission of the virus.
“Prominent anti vaxxers” include Sally Fallon Morell and Tom Cowan, who together authored a book arguing that the pandemic wasn’t really a pandemic, but rather illness resulting from 5G wireless network technology (which I wrote about in a blog post).
https://www.davidgumpert.com/why-do-denial-and-cult-dominate-the-lives-of-one-time-food-rights-activists
They, along with Joe Mercola, another “prominent anti-vaxxer” mentioned in your material, have never seen a vaccine they didn’t oppose. I presume this goes back to smallpox, diptheria, tetanus, polio vaccines. I know whenever I pose the question among the antivaxxers here (Is there a vaccine you find acceptable?), I never get an answer. That’s because they are against all vaccines, and were certain the Covid vaccines were poisonous or otherwise dangerous before they were even announced.
And btw, you still haven’t produced a link and/or a direct quote from that Moderna filing. I’m sure you haven’t seen it, but rather read some other conspiracist’s interpretation, but Moderna’s IPO filing probably includes all kinds of hedging language, as all companies going public are required to do to fully alert investors as to potential problems with their products/services, as well as a history of the vaccine technology, which goes back more than ten years (as I described in a post here).
https://www.davidgumpert.com/modernas-spectacular-covid-success-highlights-new-science-driving-vaccines-a-platform-like-the-iphone
And one other thing, Fauci didn’t “fund Moderna.” Various government agencies like NIH provided research funds to Moderna (and other vaccine developers), but they don’t generally get patent rights. Accusations that Fauci holds patents have been put out there by conspiracy theorists, and not verified.
https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2020/may/12/jerome-corsi/conspiracy-theorist-spreads-false-claim-about-fauc/
David, I could only find this filing: https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1682852/000168285220000017/mrna-20200630.htm. This sentence, “We are a biotechnology company creating a new generation of transformative medicines based on messenger RNA (mRNA), to improve the lives of patients. mRNA medicines are designed to direct the body’s cells to produce intracellular, membrane, or secreted proteins that have a therapeutic or preventive benefit with the potential to address a broad spectrum of diseases.” Pretty much describes the product as gene therapy.
Also as to Fauci funding Moderna:
The second sentence of this release from Fauci’s NIAID— The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health, is funding the trial.
https://www.niaid.nih.gov/news-events/nih-clinical-trial-investigational-vaccine-covid-19-begins
Moderna Phase 3 study: https://www.modernatx.com/cove-study “The study team is testing if the vaccine can help the immune system produce effective antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 virus so that, in case of infection, the virus does not cause illness. ” In other words, symptom reduction. No mention of immunity. “Typical vaccines for viruses are made from a weakened or inactive virus, but mRNA-1273 is not made from the SARS-CoV-2 virus. It is made from messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA), a genetic code that tells cells how to make protein…” Instructs body to make the very spike protein that causes vascular degeneration, inflammation of vascular and heart tissue.
And finally: https://www.axios.com/moderna-nih-coronavirus-vaccine-ownership-agreements-22051c42-2dee-4b19-938d-099afd71f6a0.html
Bob, think you’re getting bogged down in semantics. The intent is to “help the immune system produce effective antibodies against” Covid. It’s a vaccine using a different technology than traditional vaccines, which is a big part of the innovation around it. There is risk associated with any medication or therapy that deals with the immune system. The idea is to reduce the risk significantly from the disease itself, and the mRNA vaccines seem to have done that.
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1682852/000168285220000017/mrna-20200630.htm Directly from the filing: “Currently, mRNA is considered a gene therapy product by the FDA. Unlike certain gene therapies that irreversibly alter cell DNA and could act as a source of side effects, mRNA-based medicines are designed to not irreversibly change cell DNA; however, side effects observed in gene therapy could negatively impact the perception of mRNA medicines despite the differences in mechanism. In addition, because no product in which mRNA is the primary active ingredient has been approved, the regulatory pathway for approval is uncertain. The number and design of the clinical trials and preclinical studies required for the approval of these types of medicines have not been established, may be different from those required for gene therapy products, or may require safety testing like gene therapy products”
Key word here is “currently.” This filing was made in mid-2020. FDA gave approval to mRNA vaccine in December 2020.
if this doesn’t give you pause to reconsider what the hell is going on, nothing will.
8 minute explanation of why injection of the experimental drug is “very disconcerting”
from one of the real world-class experts in the field
Thank you for that, Mark! We still have many in our community that have fallen prey to the herd insanity that the Trump presidency brought us. I am so very sad to have seen some otherwise intelligent folks completely discredit their careers (thinking WAPF) by choosing greed over honesty and to believe conspiracy theories over science. I am most saddened to see the effect of this on the very valid work of people like Weston A. Price and Mary Enig. It kinda taints the whole thing, ( I am a former chapter leader) I agree about how desperately we need a national health reboot, and I had hope many who have access to the best foods would take the time to help others gain access to decent quality food. Too bad many are still obsessing about Trump instead of focusing on the real problem most Americans have, access to truly nourishing food.
Cindy,
A truly meaningful “national health reboot” will not happen if tptb persist with their overbearing controlling ways… In order for that reboot to occur freedom of choice re. food and health care need to be the order of the day.
Those who persist at inserting Trump’s name into their argument need to ask themselves who indeed is guilty of “obsessing” with the man…
there was zero hope of any health reboot from the feds, but would it not have been a wonderful time for the many (WAPF and the natural food/health community) who have good food and the knowledge to eat it to open the conversation instead of playing the anti mask obstructionist game? That got the real food cause nowhere. We could have had a true breath of fresh air for once. I have no guilt about bringing the former president into the conversation, as he certainly did not help do anything but add to the confusion and he does need to be held accountable for his actions..
part of that “brutal toll” is > thousands of perfectly-healthy people who dropped dead hours / days after taking the poisoned needle. Over 10,000 so far.
the tale of adverse reactions is a whole tragedy unto itself
as a journalist, Mr Gumpert, you ought to use the proper nomenclature: it’s not a vaccine. the correct term, is “experimental drug’
Since the original title of your blog, was “the complete patient”, it behooves you to compare how the campaign to inject the entire nation with this gene-altering medical device, against the Nuremberg Code.
start with the book “The Trial of the Nazi Doctors”.
I know dozens of people who have been vaccinated, and not a single one has dropped dead. You notably don’t provide a link to a credible source, so all I can assume it’s another case of denial of events you don’t like or don’t agree with your warped narrative.
The term ‘experimental drug’ may be a regulatory term used at some point. But the vaccines produced by Moderna, Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson are vaccines. And no ‘gene-altering’ has been documented.
Reuters.

Fact check.
https://www.medalerts.org/vaersdb/findfield.php?TABLE=ON&GROUP1=CAT&EVENTS=ON&VAX=COVID19 all voluntarily reported. Actual numbers probably higher as many don’t know of or how to report to VAERS. The link you provide says the CDC could not establish a causal link, which I find to be bull manure. A person gets the shot, dies a day or so later. Nothing to see here folks. Yeah, right. It’s always “coincidence” when someone dies following a shot but when someone dies of heart failure and then receives a bogus PCR test that says he/she had Covid, it was most certainly Covid that killed them. See how it works? The CDC says that only 5% of all the Covid deaths actually have Covid as cause of death on death certificate. https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/covid19/mortality-overview.htm (scroll down to Most Frequently Listed Co-morbidities) PCR high false positive rate that can’t distinguish between live and dead genetic material and counts over 30 are completely useless(according to Pope Fauci) but most labs do counts of 40. So all God’s children got Covid because the PCR can’t tell the difference between a flu, cold, dead random genetic material. Interestingly, a new phenomenon called “vaccine breakthrough” has now appeared. People getting Covid despite being “vaccinated” so the CDC altered what constitutes infection for vaccinated people. Now they must either die or be hospitalized and have positive PCRs with counts at 28 or less. Adjust the way you define infection and you suddenly prove that vaccines are working great. See how it works?
Just to fill in further, the VAERS (Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System) allows unverified data and events to be filed. Unfortunately, some of the stuff there is blatantly false, but it is picked up by the conspiracy crowd and peddled as fact. Here is further explanation by a monitoring group:

I know this person would be labeled a “prominent anti-vaxxer” but I think he does a pretty good job of summing up what has been happening. He’s quite correct about AIDS, as well. Another virus never isolated but used as an excuse to sell toxic drugs and make billions(and kill many in the process). Fauci promised a vaccine for that, too, and handed out plenty of money to do so but in that case, he couldn’t produce. The gene therapy technology wasn’t ready for prime-time, yet. https://blog.nomorefakenews.com/2021/05/31/wuhan-lab-bioweapon-gain-of-function-but-the-virus-doesnt-exist/
The Moderna mRNA does not enter the cell nucleus where DNA resides. It has a short effective life and is excreted by the body.
If vaccination is not effective then please explain why the USA with its 55% adult vaccinnation rate is on the top of the best countries list for control of CV right now? Why the rich from other countries ( that are in CV trouble ) are paying for airline tickets to come to the USA to get their shot?
What you seem to lose sight of Mark is that these genetically engineered mRNA injections are experimental. In other words, the company’s manufacturing them cannot conclusively state that they are in fact safe and effective. Anyone agreeing to receive these shots are serving as test subjects/ Guinee pigs. You as an adult are welcome to submit to those shots if you will… That said, making these experimental injections available to children without their parents consent and rewarding them with ice cream as is happening in Toronto Canada if they receive the injection is clearly unethical.
I submitted a comment earlier this morning on David’s blog that I suspect is being vetted since it has not shown up as of yet. The comment is in reference to an article titled, “Are the Covid Vaccines safe for use during pregnancy? – We doubt the 920 Women who’ve lost their baby due to them think so”. You might want to ask yourself what is going on inside of a pregnant woman after receiving those shots that causes her to lose her child…
You parroted your friends at the CDC who state that the mRNA does not enter the cell nucleus where DNA resides… I would be curious to see what type of guarantee they have to offer with respect to that conclusion, since I know that they know that once a genetically engineered product is released and or injected there is no conceivable way of knowing, predicting and controlling their overall effects.
Richard Strohman, Ph.D., Professor Emeritus, Department of Molecular and Cell Biology, University of California at Berkeley sums it up well… “When you insert a single gene into a plant or an animal, the technology will work. You will be able to move that gene from organism A to organism B. You will be able to know that the transfer was successful. You will be able to know that the gene is being expressed, and even that the function of the gene is being expressed. So you’ll get the desired characteristic. But you will also get other effects that you couldn’t have predicted from your original assumptions. You will have also produced changes in the cell or the organism as a whole that are unpredictable. And that’s what the science is having to deal with.
And that’s what the science is having to deal with.” end of quote…
with 8000 people dying every day in America and the aged being the most intensively vaccinated group ( they were first ), they of course are a population of people that will die after getting the shot. As a paramedic i know convalescent homes very well. Anything will put those on the edge over the cliff at the end of life.
Everyone that is vaccinated will eventually die after getting the CV shot! Does some one have a new cure for dying of old age? Only things that are certain…death and taxes.
Ken,
Even though I volunteered as a Moderna Guinnie pig, I agree with you that children should not be vaccinated. They are a very low risk population and not at significant risk.
I agree.
I find it odd that you don’t question what you are told about this “vaccine” yet, as a small farmer, when the gov’t and the manufacturer tells you that glyphosate is “safe and effective” for your crops do you perhaps raise an eyebrow? When the gov’t tells you that raw milk is a dangerous product that should never be consumed do you believe them or maybe ask if that is truly the case? Yet, when a company who has never had a successful product before comes out with a completely new product that is injected into your arm, that tells your body to start manufacturing something that doesn’t belong there and has no long term studies and was rushed to production after a short trial period that had some rather shady numbers proving “effectiveness”, you say, “Yes please. I trust you completely. After all you’ve never been wrong.” And if anything will put the elderly over the cliff such as this shot, why would you push them? You can’t vaccinate elderly, obese, diabetic, toxic people back to health. Just as Bill Gates is trying to do in India and Africa with his vaccination programs, when providing the people with clean water and proper nutrition/sanitation would easily be the answer. Adding more toxins into an already toxic, nutritionally starved body is not a cure to anything.
I went ahead and got the J&J shot, it is made like the flu vaccines so I was not as concerned. I listened to an interview of a 90 year old veteran, when asked if he was concerned about getting the vaccine, he replied “of course I am, but I am equally concerned about getting covid.” Just a small injection (pun intended) of common sense. My mother taught public health nursing, and I am not big on vaccinations, especially think way too many of them in childhood as a real problem. However I always promised my mom I would get vaccinated if there was a global pandemic, and I spent many hours reading her material on science and public health.

Following a receipt of a reply to the above letter from the EMA conceding that the gene-based vaccines do enter the bloodstream, the Doctors for COVID Ethics sent a follow-up letter and rebuttal to the EMA stating.
“We acknowledge receipt of your March 23 reply to our letter dated February 28, seeking reassurance that foreseeable risks of gene-based COVID-19 “vaccines” had been ruled out in animal trials prior to human use. Our concerns arise from multiple lines of evidence, including that the SARS-CoV-2 “spike protein” is not a passive docking protein, but its production is likely to initiate blood coagulation via multiple mechanisms.
Regrettably, your reply of March 23 is unconvincing and unacceptable. We are dismayed that you choose to respond to our request for crucially important information in a dismissive and unscientific manner. Such a cavalier approach to vaccine safety creates the unwelcome impression that the EMA is serving the interests of the very pharmaceutical companies whose products it is your pledged duty to evaluate. The evidence is clear that there are some serious adverse event risks & that a number of people, not at risk from SARS-CoV-2, have died following vaccination.
For the avoidance of doubt, if your regulatory body does not immediately suspend its ‘emergency’ recommendation of potentially dangerous inadequately tested gene-based ‘vaccines,’ while the matters which we have highlighted to you are properly investigated, we hereby put the EMA on notice of being complicit in medical experimentation, in violation of the Nuremberg Code, which thereby constituted the commission of crimes against humanity.”

Vaccine researcher admits ‘big mistake,’ says spike protein is dangerous ‘toxin’
https://www.lifesitenews.com/mobile/news/vaccine-researcher-admits-big-mistake-says-spike-protein-is-dangerous-toxin?__twitter_impression=true&fbclid=IwAR0xkBhBymmK2PyRqsm4LNSUkyNSTpauozyp4yzPLj_vTD1_ci3XTu8NN40
“New research shows that the coronavirus spike protein from COVID-19 vaccination unexpectedly enters the bloodstream, which is a plausible explanation for thousands of reported side-effects from blood clots and heart disease to brain damage and reproductive issues, a Canadian cancer vaccine researcher said last week.
“We made a big mistake. We didn’t realize it until now,” said Byram Bridle, a viral immunologist and associate professor at University of Guelph, Ontario, in an interview with Alex Pierson last Thursday, in which he warned listeners that his message was “scary.”
“We thought the spike protein was a great target antigen, we never knew the spike protein itself was a toxin and was a pathogenic protein. So by vaccinating people we are inadvertently inoculating them with a toxin,” Bridle said on the show, which is not easily found in a Google search but went viral on the internet this weekend.”
Thank you, Ken. This is exactly what researchers have been saying for quite a while–even the Salk institute stated that the spike protein was THE cause of the vascular degeneration so why ask the body to make more of it for a short term symptom reduction???? That people are losing their livelihoods because they refuse this injection is shameful and sad. The FDA will most likely bend to the drug company demands and obediently move to approve this “vaccine” beyond emergency approval. Money always wins in the end.
Read this : https://byrambridle.com/
There is no spike protein in the mRNA vaccines:
absolutely nothing has changed with respect to our understanding of the incredible safety and efficacy of the COVID-19 vaccines – they are our best tools to fight the COVID-19 pandemic.
there are no peer-reviewed publications (or data, or pre-prints) which support Bridle’s claims.
all of the data Bridle claims to have “revealed” have been publicly available for months.
John,
Who stated that spike proteins are in the vaccines???
As Dr. Robert Malone, creator of mRNA vaccine technology pointed out, the “lipid nanoparticles” in the COVID vaccine, “tell the body to produce the spike protein (that) leave the injection site and accumulate in organs and tissues.”
““According to the data in the Japanese study, (the bases for University of Guelph viral immunologist professor Byram Bridal statement) lipid nanoparticles were found in the whole blood circulating throughout the body within four hours, and then settled in large concentrations in the ovaries, bone marrow and lymph nodes”… ‘Malone said there needed to be monitoring of vaccine recipients for leukemia and lymphomas as there were concentrations of lipid nanoparticles in the bone marrow and lymph nodes. But those signals often don’t show up for six months to three or nine years down the road, he said… Usually, signals like this are picked up in animal studies and long-term clinical trials, but this didn’t happen with mRNA vaccines, Malone said.”
This is not new information yet it is contrary to what the public were led to believe… that these lipid nanoparticles remained localized to the injection site and did not enter the blood system! This is not new information yet it is contrary to what the public were led to believe… that these lipid nanoparticles remained localized to the injection site and did not enter the blood system… In essence anyone thar receives this injection are now manufacturing these spike proteins and that is not a good scenario for one to be in.

Death by Medicine, the book authored by people with UN-assailable credentials, reported the FACT that iatrogenic deaths = caused by mistakes by drs/ the ‘system” = are the number one cause of death in America

Mr Gumpert : as a journalist, you are missing the story of a lifetime.
the entire Covid 19 thing is the greatest medical malpractice in history
If the Complete Patient was still in the business of scrutinizing the medical racket, here’s the kind of thing we’d see on this website. Yet we don’t.
Greg Reese is the master of micro documentaries for our dystopic era.
This 5-minute piece, which charts the unlikely rise of Moderna, Inc and the nearly $20 billion US Tax Dollars spent on their mRNA “vaccine” needs to be sent to all of the sleeping zombies in your life.
According to the official narrative, COVID-19 was first discovered as a pneumonia outbreak in the city of Wuhan on December 31st, 2019 and it wasn’t until January 9th of 2020 when this supposed mystery virus was officially diagnosed as a novel coronavirus.
Operation Warp Speed began on May 15th of 2020 to facilitate and accelerate the development of COVID-19 vaccines. Of the companies receiving research funding, the one responsible for the mRNA vaccine was Moderna.
But we know that none of this checks out.
We now know Anthony Fauci used NIH funds to create a novel coronavirus capable of directly infecting humans. And we also know that Modern has been working with Fauci’s NIH on the mRNA COVID vaccine since December of 2019.
Born in 2010 as ModeRNA Therapeutics, they were criticized for their specialty of mRNA bio-hacking, that transforms human cells into drug factories and later changed their name to Moderna.
With a reputation for losing top talent and keeping investors in the dark, due to dangerous, unpredictable side-effects, Moderna somehow became Big Pharma’s Golden Unicorn. They went public in December 2018 with the largest-ever IPO in the biotech industry. Without even having a safe, effective product, they blew up faster than Uber.
And a year later, before COVID-19 ever made headlines, Moderna was working with Fauci’s NIH, outsourcing redacted challenge studies, where subjects are deliberately infected with the Fauci-funded Wuhan Lab-made coronavirus and treated with Moderna’s experimental gene therapy.
And as fate would have it, the massive investment in Moderna paid off. Operation Warp Speed brought Moderna’s pay-off to just under $2.5 billion and actual sales to the US, alone is already over $15 billion.
There does not seem to be any breakthrough science. The mRNA is still proving to be as unpredictable and deadly as experts have been saying for years.
And we now officially know that the shot is permanently changing a person’s DNA.
And yet, people are still lining-up to get the shot, thanks to media and Big Pharma. And thanks to the self-proclaimed philanthropists who fund the media and Big Pharma; the ones who call themselves the “Good Club”. The ones who met in 2009 to discuss how to save the world and how overpopulation was a major priority.
How much more evidence do we need, before we collectively realize that this entire thing is a scam?
https://forbiddenknowledgetv.net/taxpayer-subsidized-self-genocide/
“How much more evidence do we need?” the article asks. Interesting question, since the article doesn’t provide a single credible piece of documentation to support its off-the-wall accusations.
if this doesn’t satisfy your demand for something “official”, then nothing will
The US Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) is “overwhelmed” with reports of vaccine adverse effects in the wake of the COVID-19 vaccination campaign, cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough last week told Laura Ingraham on Fox News.
Asked to address the possibility of underreporting of COVID-19 vaccine-related “cardiac complications,” McCullough said he thought the CDC was “overwhelmed” by the massive increase in reports of vaccine adverse events.
“The CDC every year with all the vaccines combined get about 16,000 safety reports and about 25 deaths reported to the VAERS system. So far with COVID-19 they’ve received over 300,000 safety reports, over 6,000 deaths, nearly 20,000 hospitalizations, I think they’re completely overwhelmed,” he assessed.
Regarding COVID-19 vaccine effects being observed, he noted, “What we’re seeing is a really disturbing pattern in those individuals under age 30, and that’s myocarditis, and that’s where the spike protein [induced by the COVID-19 vaccine] replicates inside heart muscle cells, damages the heart muscle cells and results in chest pain, EKG changes, positive troponin signs and symptoms of heart failure.”
“20 percent of these kids are developing abnormal echocardiograms with reduced left ventricular function. And in terrible cases like this, they actually die. So I think vaccination ought to be completely prohibited in anybody under age 30. That would simplify the picture greatly,” he concluded.
According to the VAERS website, VAERS “is a national early warning system to detect possible safety problems in U.S.-licensed vaccines. VAERS is co-managed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).”
The site notes that “VAERS is a passive reporting system, meaning it relies on individuals to send in reports of their experiences to CDC and FDA. VAERS is not designed to determine if a vaccine caused a health problem, but is especially useful for detecting unusual or unexpected patterns of adverse event reporting that might indicate a possible safety problem with a vaccine.”
Here is one for the notebooks and a real sign of the “city kid syndrome”.
We had a wonderful farm tour today. Lots of young kids and moms.
We use crushed walnut shells on our roads for dust control and they even look great with a reddish tint. They are soft on the tires and we don’t water roads anymore.
But…. what do you know. We had a kid react to the walnut shell as an allergy. Full body light hives and a moderate general allergic reaction. Not anaphylactic and dud well with some Benadryl. No ER visit.
Can not make this stuff up.
My grand kid’s play in huge piles ( truck load mountains… they love them. ) of walnut shells and we use them for cows bedding along with almond shells.
Farm tour safety for visiting suppressed urban micro biome children is a real challenge in today’s suppressed immunity world. They had no reaction to our raw milk at all and normally they react to pasteurized products.
I guess they are taking the road to gut micro biome recovery with raw milk Just don’t walk on our roads !
URL is to an article re > Oat socalled “milk” gaining ground in the marketplace. the Image displacing reality.
I guess if it looks like milk, and is labelled ‘milk’ for purposes of commerce, it’s milk? But the human body does not accept this thin whitish fluid as such because, of course, oat milk doesn’t have the nutritional components of REAL MILK. Especially > the suite of vitamins / precious fats necessary for maturation of sexual organs. Confer with Weston A Price = Nutrition and Physical degeneration
the ersatz “milks” cooked up out of plants, are a deliberate nefarious tactic by Big Pharma for dumbing-down the personal immune systems, so the dupes are perpetual customers
I know how farfetched my theory is : that suppression of whole raw milk is a witting attack on the white race, yet the evidence is there for those who will apply the scientific approach. Preventing white people from getting our heritage soul food, is a calculated tactic for impairing our reproduction. Same as the God damned vag-zeen… no mere co-incidence that it is now proven to invade the sex organs with the ‘spike protein’ being called a “toxin’ by the top experts

For those considering these experimental mRNA injections, you’d do well to read this comment published in the Lancet Medical Journal. I doubt very much that vaccine proponents and the mainstream media are considering ARRs (absolute risk reduction) criteria when assessing and reporting on “vaccine” efficacy… As the author points out, “ARRs at 1·3% for the AstraZeneca–Oxford, 1·2% for the Moderna–NIH, 1·2% for the J&J, 0·93% for the Gamaleya, and 0·84% for the Pfizer–BioNTech vaccines tend to be ignored because they give a much less impressive effect size than RRRs (relative risk reduction) at 95% for the Pfizer–BioNTech, 94% for the Moderna–NIH, 90% for the Gamaleya, 67% for the J&J, and 67% for the AstraZeneca–Oxford vaccines” . As well, when considering the demonstrable risks of stroke, blood clots, heart attacks and death from these vaccines, it seems apparent that fear and not science is the main reason why people are agreeing to receive these unnatural fast-tracked and overrated injections.
https://www.thelancet.com/action/showPdf?pii=S2666-5247(21)00069-0
Ken,
Try to consider the benefits in spite of fast track. The rate of illness and deaths has dropped to very low levels and continue to drop in the USA, now that we have a high rate of vaccination. Countries with very low rates or none are dying like flies on fly bait.
Consider the greater good ? in spite of the small individual risk.
In my large circle of friends, there is not one person that has had a bad event. Not one. The VAERS database is a collection of both good and bad data. A review of some sample VAERS data shows that it has been corrupted by anti Vax posters. All you need to do is go and enter bad data and it shows up. No vetting or validation. Kind of like giving the PETA crowd an open microphone at a raw milk rally.
It doesn’t work. I am not blind to the fact that there have been and will continue to be adverse events from vaccination, that’s a fair statement, but using VAERS as a foundation is an error.
Mark,
As I pointed out to David, influenza peaks between December and February. Its activity then gradually peters off and ends as late as May. How then can one conclusively state that these mRNA injections are in fact “doing their job” and that this so-called pandemic that clearly demonstrates a similar seasonal pattern to influenza is in fact not merely coming to the end of its seasonal cycle? Considering the following article and the well understood cyclical nature of corona and influenza viruses I feel confident in suggesting that the latter is likely occurring and that these experimental toxic genetically engineered injections are doing diddly squat. The public at large would do well to consider the implication of bypassing the body’s natural censoring and immune stimulating mechanism via the injection of these invasive and insidious substances into the human body…
“Historical coronaviruses show evidence of seasonality & immunity”
https://www.ucl.ac.uk/news/2020/mar/historical-coronaviruses-show-evidence-seasonality-immunity
“Using historical data, a UCL research team has found that levels of infection from three common coronaviruses appear to have followed a seasonal pattern in England, with peaks occurring during winter and broadly at the same time as influenza. The researchers found that only small amounts of coronavirus were transmitted in the summer.”
I have not worn a mask throughout all of this foolishness and I will not be getting the vaccine. Merely considering the short-term implications of receiving this mRNA injection is shortsighted to say the least.
Ken, what I read here is part of a steady drumbeat to rewrite history. The “revised” history eventually will have Covid as a “flu” that was fading out on its own when the vaccine was made available. This is what the antivaxxers say about polio. But as Mark points out, it’s not a “flu” that’s fading away in countries that have failed to vaccinate, India being most notable.
David, there are many factors that come into play with respect to the cyclical nature of viruses and disease… the geographic and climatic influences are merely single components that can affect their presence and evolution in the ecosystem. This has been going on for millennia and all of these man made restrictions and unnatural interventions are not constructive and will inevitably end up doing a great deal of harm.
I respect your choice I’m not being vaccinated.
In the northern. Hemisphere India shares our seasons.
We are experiencing a dramatic decline in CV, with high rates of vaccination. India with its low rates of vaccination are suffering a staggering crisis of death.
Between our huge numbers of people that have had CV and the 65% of adults that are vaccinated, I would say, we are pretty well protected here in the USA.
I love a précis like this, by Martin Armstrong, one of the wiser heads commenting on the state of the financial world
my take, being : there is no ‘pan-demic’. There never was
………………………
QUESTION: With over 1 million millionaires and billionaires fleeing the north to the south, why do these people not see the handwriting on the wall? Willful ignorance? Or are they planning to try to prevent non vaccinated people from even engaging in any commerce?
ANSWER: This reminds me of how Spain fell. Indeed, Spain was once the richest nation in Europe. It had America and the gold kept piling in. Spain was the Financial Capital of the Western World at that time. Even the main currency in the United States prior to the Revolution as Spanish dollars. (photo of ) is a private note from the Exchange Office in Mississippi. Note that they picture a US dollar as well as Spanish dollars. The US adopted the Spanish monetary system because it was the Financial Capital of the Western World at that time.
The Spanish Inquisition was even rejected by the Pope. It was being used for political purposes not unlike how they are using COVID today. They would torture and confiscate the property of especially Jews and Muslims. What they too succeeded in doing was driving the jews out of Spain. Where did they go? They migrated to Amsterdam and in the process, they began banking and the first insurance companies. It was the English who copied the “Dutch” which were really the Jews at that time who even created the first stock exchange – the bourse.
It was the Sephardi Jews from the Iberian Peninsula who had been expelled from Spain in 1492 after the fall of Muslim Granada. There were some who first migrated to Portugal. However, they too were forced to leave in 1497. The crown was using religion for-profit and the Jews were given the choice between conversion to Catholicism or suffer the death penalty on the grounds of heresy. By expelling the Jews, they set in motion the fall of Spain. The country became a serial defaulter and wiped out both the Italian and German bankers in the process. It was because of their defaults that the banking also migrated north to Amsterdam.
I see the very same process unfolding. The government is seeking to punish those who are not vaccinated. They are using COVID as the excuse to tear society apart to further their own power by maintaining the division between people. Nobody really knows what these vaccines are. People I know who have been vaccinated are handed a long legal document which states they are consenting to an experimental vaccine that has “not been approved” counting on the fact that people just sign such papers and have no clue what they really say.
The real question is WHY are governments involved in such an effort when the death toll is no worse than the flu? Now we have Canada bluntly proposing to suspend all elections using the pandemic as justification. It simply means we have arrived at the end of socialism. They know that.
Europe has destroyed its bond markets. Pension funds are insolvent for they need 8% annual returns to break even. They must change the monetary system for they can no longer borrow endlessly to fund their wildest dreams. Welcome to the New Age of Authoritarianism.
Martin Arthur Armstrong is the former chairman of Princeton Economics International Ltd.
He is best known for his economic predictions based on the Economic Confidence Model, which he developed.
Mark and Gordon, five of our adult family members have now received our first doses of the Pfizer vaccine, via a vaccination site set up at a local convention centre by the regional health authority. There were NO forms to sign, and certainly no long legal documents. Location: British Columbia, Canada.
All we had to do was to show up at the site at our scheduled appointment time and present our health cards to one of the people staffing the front counter. Then, after a short wait, we were directed to the appropriate station where a nurse explained the vaccine and answered our questions. Then we went to a waiting area set up to sit for 15 minutes under the supervision of another nurse in case there were any immediate side effects. No long forms, and certainly no legal documents. The whole process from start to finish was over within 30 minutes. It was run like clockwork. And none of us, nor any of our friends, have experienced any side effects other than a mildly sore upper arm for a day or two.
The registration process here in BC is detailed at https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/covid-19/vaccine/register . This page directs one to review a page at https://www.healthlinkbc.ca/healthlinkbc-files/covid-19-vaccines which has details about the vaccine. The government also provides a free hotline 24/7 (HealthLink BC) to talk to a health professional to answer questions.
thanks for the comic relief, Anne, on this profoundly important subject. Now that the Central Partly Line propaganda has been folded in to the forum, I’ll start posting the daily obituaries of individuals who succumbed within hours/ days of submitting to the poisoned needle. Especially the ones who’d gone public, boasting about how happy they were to step up and do their duty for the common good.
Up to 4000 so far, in Europe. Every one of whom was a real person, with a life worth living, ’til they put their trust in a medical experiment which – beyond argument – has drastic harms and sequelae. And that doesn’t even get started with the hundreds of thousands of adverse affects. For what? For a phenomenon usually called “influenza” ….
for laughs, look up the etymology of tht word’. When they started noticing the yearly cycle of sickness, the medical professionals of the day ascribed it to “the influence of the planets” !! And you want us to “follow the science” ?!!
all politics is local. In Lytton British Columbia, Dr Charles Hoffe injected 900 residents with the stuff. 1 died right away. 3 are so badly injured that no specialist will see them. When he started publicizing his experience – the FACTS, mind you – the BC College of Physicians tried to shut him up. They then took away his privilege at the local hospital. … Point being > one small example of how the entire ScamDemic was a HOAX to drive the herd towards becoming permanent customers of Big Pharma.
it’s not about your health ; it never was
by perpetrating FRAUD upon British Columbians as to the nature of the experimental drugs … it’s NOT a vaccine … inducing customers to participate in a grand medical experiment contrary to the Nuremberg Standard … the province put itself on the hook for untold damages.
This very minute, evidence is being gathered for the class action lawsuit by Dr Stephen Malthouse and David Code.
corrigiendum to my prior post
it isn’t 4000 deaths in Europe from the quack-zeeen…. it’s 13,000 and counting. Over 1 million 400 thousand adverse reactions there.
feeling particularly lucky today? As though lightening could strike you, in particular, as you purchase a lottery ticket? yet you discount the very same odds re being one of the ones who dies or has a blood clot stroke occasioned by the Quack-Zeeen
And certainly you and your data have a reputation of reliability and accuracy, Mr. Watson. Even if there is no source or linkage. But even assuming there was some resemblance to reality in your data (which there isn’t), they would still be much lower than the tens of thousands of deaths associated with Covid. But somehow, in your scheme of things, the deaths from Covid aren’t worth mentioning, while those you fantasize come from a vaccine are all that matter.
When I was vaccinated I did not have to sign anything other than permission to be vaccinated. It was a consent form. Half page at most. No fine print.

Mark,
I couldn’t agree with you more, “If we want our children in school to read and run and breathe and thrive in school… do well in school, they need to eat first, their gut needs to drive their brain, and were all about children thriving.”
Unfortunately, the predicament children and their parents are faced with, is that tptb/health officials and the CDC are clearly not concerned with a healthy gut and children thriving”, when they force children to wear a mask on their face, to social distance, to continually use disinfectants on a daily basis, coerce them to be injected with toxic concoctions that have a deleterious effect on their gut and overall physiology and give them no other option in school but to drink pasteurized, nutritionally inferior dead milk…
“Turning an experimental medical procedure on children into a raffle.
Purchasing their compliance with a chance to win $50.
It’s utterly shameful that a Public Health agency is behind this.

When Americans my age were children, we were lined up and vaccinated til the cows came home, I’m still alive, still quite healthy at 67.
On top of using taxpayers’ dollars to pay vaccine manufactures gob loads of money in order to purchase these experimental mRNA injections, governments are also using taxpayers’ dollars as a way to tempt and coerce the public into receiving those same injections… This is definitely a win win situation for the vaccine manufactures! Follow the money…

I fully agree with Kennedy…
“Even though the media and politicians are currently trivializing the problem and even foolishly calling for a new type of vaccine to return to normality, this vaccination is problematic in terms of health, morality and ethics, but also in terms of genetic damage.” Robert F Kennedy Jr, Children Health Defense
“Not since the actual Holocaust has something so evil been foisted on the world in the name of “public health.” COVID-19 vaccines are not only unsafe, Kennedy contends, but they represent a “crime against humanity that has never been committed in such a significant way in history.””
“As experienced physician Dr. Wolfgang Wodarg said: Actually, this ‘promising vaccine’ for the vast majority of people should be banned because it is genetic engineering!’”
https://bestnewshere.com/robert-f-kennedy-jr-warns-dont-take-a-covid-19-vaccine-under-any-circumstances/?fbclid=IwAR2GIC791zYOXXxu0tDjFSB2uWhHYpuF-aPkdZPDe64FUS0aSLiRPJsfPps
Ken, comparing the Covid vaccine to the Holocaust is obscene, and I’m surprised you would associate yourself with words so ridiculous and disgusting.
Admittedly David, the methods that were used to conduct medical, including immunization experiments during World War II and the Holocaust were far more egregious. That said, a parallel can be drawn and you should not be surprised that I would do so… I have repeatedly stated that “the vaccine paradigm is one of the most insidious form of abuses ever perpetrated on humanity, especially children”. When all is said and done, the coercive and manipulative tactics currently being used (on a global scale no least) to foist this experimental injection on the public, including children, is unconscionable to say the least.
You’re entitled to your opinion, but that’s all you have, is an opinion, unsupported by any inkling of facts. The Holocaust involved the murder of six million Jews, some of which occurred as part of medical “experiments.” There is nothing approaching murder with the Covid vaccines. Indeed, the vaccines have arguably reduced illnesses and deaths from Covid and allowed much of the world to resume a sense of normalcy. That may be unconscionable to you, but as I said, that’s just an opinion, nothing more. If Robert Kennedy parrots that view, it’s just another unsubstantiated opinion.
David,
Perhaps this Children’s Health Defense article of an interview with Vera Sharav is in part the reason why Kennedy drew a parallel with the holocaust…
“Nazism, COVID-19 and the destruction of modern medicine: An interview with Vera Sharav”
https://childrenshealthdefense.org/transcripts/nazism-covid-19-and-the-destruction-of-modern-medicine-an-interview-with-vera-sharav/
When asked the question, “So when you’re drawing these parallels between what you’ve seen in history and what you’re seeing now, is it offensive to compare Nazism to what’s happening in America today?”
Vera’s response, “What’s offensive is what’s happening in America today… What I’m suggesting is that when you eliminate the sanctity of the individual person, you are crossing that line. You’re no better… It begins in the public health arena. Public health is government, and that is what happened in Nazi Germany. All of medicine wound up being public health. Once you have medicine in partnership with government, there is no individual care. The Hippocratic Oath goes out the window.”
Once again, you’re quoting people who are spouting words, opinions, with no facts or historical analysis to back them up. Vera Sharav was a child in Nazi Germany–she is a Holocaust survivor (her father was murdered). That doesn’t make her a Holocaust or Nazi historical expert. And her words..’in Nazi Germany all of medicine wound up being public health’ tell us nothing of substance. For ordinary Germans there was no private health care? I don’t believe so. Is she referring to the bizarre medical experiments carried out on Jews in concentration camps? Making a connection to the Nazis and the Holocaust of any controls or rules you don’t agree with makes for tantalizing headlines, and that’s what’s happening here.
I’m not saying you can’t draw parallels from today to what happened in Nazi Germany. I did that recently in an analysis comparing the Jan. 6 attempted American insurrection with a 1920s attempted Nazi insurrection. But I used facts and historical documentation to back up my analysis, which states in part: “What comes next in positioning the January 6 events? Unbelievable as it might sound now, one logical next step would be to begin repositioning the Capitol insurrection into a day of glory and national celebration, perhaps even a national holiday.
“We actually have a model of how that might come about in Adolph Hitler’s November 9, 1923 “Beer Hall Putsch,” which followed a script amazingly similar to Trump’s January 6 Capitol insurrection. Just as Trump complained endlessly that the November 2020 election had been stolen from him, Hitler as an up-and-coming pol complained in rousing speeches before thousands during the summer and fall of 1923 that Germany’s expected victory in World War I had been stolen by its defeatist politicians, the “November criminals” who surrendered in fall 1918.
“And just as there was a pitched battle between insurrectionists and police resulting in deaths and injuries at the U.S. Capitol, a gun battle broke out on November 9, 1923, during a march by 2,000 Nazis to take over the Bavarian government; four police were killed, along with two dozen of Hitler’s followers and militia members. Both countries attempted in their own way to punish the plotters. A German court sentenced Hitler to five years in prison for treason. America’s version of prison was to cut Trump’s Twitter and Facebook bullhorns….”

Majority of Physicians Decline COVID Shots, according to Survey
Share:
Of the 700 physicians responding to an internet survey by the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS), nearly 60 percent said they were not “fully vaccinated” against COVID.
This contrasts with the claim by the American Medical Association that 96 percent of practicing physicians are fully vaccinated. This was based on 300 respondents.
Neither survey represents a random sample of all American physicians, but the AAPS survey shows that physician support for the mass injection campaign is far from unanimous.
“It is wrong to call a person who declines a shot an ‘anti-vaxxer,’” states AAPS executive director Jane Orient, M.D. “Virtually no physicians are ‘anti-antibiotics’ or ‘anti-surgery,’ whereas all are opposed to treatments that they think are unnecessary, more likely to harm than to benefit an individual patient, or inadequately tested.”
The AAPS survey also showed that 54 percent of physician respondents were aware of patients suffering a “significant adverse reaction.” Of the unvaccinated physicians, 80 percent said “I believe risk of shots exceeds risk of disease,” and 30% said “I already had COVID.”
Other reasons for declining the shot included unknown long-term effects, use of aborted fetal tissue, “it’s experimental,” availability of effective early treatment, and reports of deaths and blood clots.
Of 560 practicing physicians, 56 percent said they offered early treatment for COVID.
Nonphysicians were also invited to participate in the survey. Of some 5,300 total participants, 2,548 volunteered comments about associated adverse effects of which they were aware. These included death, amputation, paralysis, stillbirth, menstrual irregularities, blindness, seizures, and heart issues.
“Causality is not proven. However, many of these episodes might have resulted in a huge product liability or malpractice award if they had occurred after a new drug,” stated Dr. Orient. “Purveyors of these COVID products are protected against lawsuits.”
The Association of American Physicians and Surgeons has represented physicians in all specialties since 1943. Its motto is omnia pro aegroto, everything for the patient.

Amos Miller found in contempt of Court.
detailed article on food safety news … no friend of the Campaign for REAL MILK
it does not give me pleasure to report this. It does confirm my analysis of what was going on. …. nothing to do with genuine safety of food. Everything to do with the racketeers running a competitor off the field. Moreover > destroying someone whose food handling practices and marketing model embarrassed them. Of course they got him for “contempt’ = the government’s weapon of choice when they are on the losing side of the discussion about “quality”

This from the article linked to:
“Of the 700 physicians responding to an internet survey by the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS), nearly 60 percent said they were not “fully vaccinated” against COVID.
“This contrasts with the claim by the American Medical Association that 96 percent of practicing physicians are fully vaccinated. This was based on 300 respondents.
“Neither survey represents a random sample of all American physicians, but the AAPS survey shows that physician support for the mass injection campaign is far from unanimous….”
A few factoids:
-The AAPS has 5,000 physician members
-The AMA (American Medical Association) has 240,000 members
-There are more than 500,000 physicians in the U.S.
To conclude that this tiny survey from a tiny physician association shows that doctors have rejected the Covid vaccines is totally ridiculous.
Note, from the above article… ““According to the data in the Japanese study, lipid nanoparticles were found in the whole blood circulating throughout the body within four hours, and then settled in large concentrations in the ovaries, bone marrow and lymph nodes.
‘Malone said there needed to be monitoring of vaccine recipients for leukemia and lymphomas as there were concentrations of lipid nanoparticles in the bone marrow and lymph nodes. But those signals often don’t show up for six months to three or nine years down the road, he said… Usually, signals like this are picked up in animal studies and long-term clinical trials, but this didn’t happen with mRNA vaccines, Malone said.”
Gordon,
Thank you for the Amos Miller report.
I find it fascinating that the legal actions against Miller all seem to be meat and poultry related. Not raw milk related.
It will be interesting to see what the injunction reads. What will the courts and FDA block him from doing going forward . Will sales of raw milk over state lines be part of it ?
For the last ten years, I have been under FDA continuing injunction. Mine is all about no sales of raw milk over state lines. But the FDA has never seemed to care much about Amos and raw milk. Totally unequal enforcement of CFR 1240.61. The FDA has made it clear to
me that there is no pressure on them to enforce sales of raw milk equally.
They seem to enjoy causing pain on some and ignoring others as part of their culture of pain and injustice. There is a place in hell for those in the FDA that promote breast feeding and its long list of health benefits, Yet… want to incarcerate anyone selling safe raw milk or making those same claims on another mammals milk. It defines hypocrisy. It defies science.
It ignores their own PUBMED research.
Weird. Truly weird and corrupt organization. And I would say that to their face. If fact I have said that to their faces so many times. Never miss an opportunity. Every inspector that visits us gets a long line of questioning about why they selectively enforce Regs and why they ignore their own PUBMED and NIH science. They just stare at me….They say. “We will share that with management”. I persist any way with relentless education pressure citing their own published studies and hard science.
Totally dis functional.
If you read the story from Food Safety News, most of it appears to be drawn verbatim from the USDA/Justice Department filing seeking a contempt order against Amos Miller. And most of the federal argument is about trying to discredit the private food clubs Amos Miller sponsors around the country. If you’ll recall (and I know it is difficult to recall amid all the legal proceedings involving Amos Miller), back in 2019 the Trump administration’s Justice Department made a major announcement about undertaking America’s first legal campaign targeting private food clubs by going after Amos Miller. Here is the post I did about it:
https://www.davidgumpert.com/trump-admin-touts-first-ever-legal-campaign-against-private-food-clubs
I wasn’t as the hearing Wednesday where Miller was found in contempt, but I gather from the FSN article he didn’t have legal representation. That’s in keeping with Amish practice. Sometimes it works out, but sometimes it’s a disaster, as we saw with the salve case involving Sam Girod, which led to him spending more than four years in federal detention.
Mark, you may see unequal enforcement of the law, but what I see is federal regulators who get their jollies going after easy pickings–Amish farmers they know won’t fight back based on real legal arguments and precedent….and thus give the regulators and prosecutors easy notches on their proverbial holsters.

“Covid’s warped vaccines… Highly credentialled whistle-blowers sound a warning”
https://www.spectator.com.au/2021/06/covids-warped-vaccines/?fbclid=IwAR1yCLusSK6Ts_jdp5vT9MqT5Gp3DCFRIOk5I4pWzl1ftmGwkxv4gGHF0LA
“How could Covid vaccines inflict so much and such diverse harm? Perhaps because of two fatally flawed assumptions; that the spike protein is harmless and that it remains in the injection site. Recent research at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston shows that the spike protein circulates in the plasma of vaccine recipients for up to 28 days and researchers at the Salk Institute showed that the spike protein on its own, without the virus, damages the cells in the walls of blood vessels, triggering clotting and also attacking platelets, so that the blood can’t clot. Dr Stephanie Seneff, a senior research scientist at MIT, and Dr Greg Nigh reviewed possible unintended consequences of the mRNA vaccines including acute and long-term induced pathologies, such as blood disorders, neurodegenerative diseases and autoimmune diseases.
‘The credentials of those sounding an alarm are impressive. Mike Yeadon, the chief scientific officer running R&D at Pfizer over 17 years and a co-founder of Ziarco, a biotech company he sold to Novartis for $US1 billion, is deeply concerned about the failure to do proper safety trials and says attempts to foist the vaccines on those who don’t need them — healthy people aged 60 and under — is resulting in avoidable deaths and constitutes a crime against humanity.”
A review of the over 4000 patents surrounding the novel corona virus/SARSCov-2… Indeed, “novelty is a manufactured illusion”
This hour-long interview hosted by Dr. Reiner Fuellmich is well worth taking the time to listen to.
https://www.nomorelockdowns.ca/20210715_faucidossier
With respect to above interview Provincial MPP Randy Hillier states, “The last 16 months have been a rollercoaster of fears and facts, and we have seen the narrative behind COVID-19 change constantly, it was novel after all, what could we expect?
‘Dr. Reiner Fuellmich who has been leading the charge on exposing the true information surrounding COVID-19 recently hosted Dr. David Martin, a professional analyst who has shared some disturbing information. His evidence appears very compelling and credible, and I have fact checked some of the patents he has identified. It’s clear COVID-19 was never a novel (new) virus.
‘Watch this interview in full, hear the testimony of Dr. David Martin and the patents he’s analysed over the last many years. All publicly available going back to 1999 showing the Novel Coronavirus was well known for two decades. He explains his credentials and provides many quotes about how this present outbreak was probably engineered.
‘It was a surprise to me that we knew about this back in 2000 following a patent application by Miller, Klepfer, Reid and Jones Jan 28 2000 US patent 6372224.
In 2016 Dr. Peter Daszak President of EcoHealth Alliance stated, “We need to increase public understanding of the need for medical countermeasures such as a pan corona virus vaccine. A key driver is the media, and the economics will follow the hype. We need to use that hype to our advantage to get to the real issues, Investors will respond if they see profit at the end of the process.”.
Dr. Scott Gottlieb, a former chief of the Food and Drug Administration, stressed the urgency of approving new vaccine boosters in the United States and said data from Israel showing declining efficacy among people vaccinated late last year prompted vaccine maker Pfizer to seek an emergency use authorization for its Covid booster.
https://www.forbes.com/sites/jonathanponciano/2021/07/11/declining-vaccine-efficacy-particularly-among-older-individuals-prompting-pfizers-emergency-booster-request-former-fda-chief-says/?sh=3113649912dc&fbclid=IwAR2Ov9Ysht01o5bo1hJu01CuFtboS5VYGyBKVgg3G9lU6hya9BUYw62p5uA
Of course, “emergency use authorization” is required… I suppose they are going to expect immunity from liability as well? FOLLOW THE MONEY!
This statement made in 2016 by Dr. Peter Daszak President of EcoHealth Alliance is worth repeating, “We need to increase public understanding of the need for medical countermeasures such as a pan corona virus vaccine. A key driver is the media, and the economics will follow the hype. We need to use that hype to our advantage to get to the real issues, Investors will respond if they see profit at the end of the process.”.
Well, at least Joe Mercola is #1 at something: he’s declared the number one spreader of vaccine misinformation following an investigation by the NYTimes.
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/07/24/technology/joseph-mercola-coronavirus-misinformation-online.html
Which means the information he is making available to the public is an affront to those who are afraid of the truth… Heaven forbid if one should take a rational stand against the sacred ritual of conventional medicine. Indeed, and it would also explain why Mercola has been subjected to ongoing censorship by social media and is one of 12 people “flagged” as problematic by the White House administration according Press Secretary Jen Psaki. If anyone is historically and currently guilty of disseminating “misinformation” and “killing people”, the White House Administration clearly fits the bill!
David, It must be disturbing for you being a journalist and writer in the United States today where the President of your country and his entourage are actively involved in categorizing and encouraging the censorship of those who are challenging their narrative… As Dr. Mercola correctly states in the following article, “Not only is blatant censorship tolerated, it is being encouraged by the very people who were to be entrusted with protecting our freedom of speech.” Indeed, and a similar situation is occurring in Canada where the Liberal government succeeded in passing its creeping internet censorship Bill C-10… Fortunately the Senate had the wherewithal to more or less reject it with one Senator going as far to call the bill “Orwellian”… and another stating that, “sanctimony is the hidden foundation of this bill”.

The First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution protects us against the government trying to censor the privately-owned media. But that’s it. There’s nothing illegal about Facebook or Twitter removing material they regard as false or inflammatory. The rule is the same as it’s long been regarding media consumption: if you don’t like a particular outlet or publication, find something else that suits you. There are plenty of choices. Mercola is pissed because Facebook and others called out his disinformation campaign–blanketing these outlets with dozens or even hundreds of articles, much containing blatantly inaccurate information, for the purpose of furthering his political and/or business agenda (i.e., selling more nutritional supplements). Not much different than what the Russians did in 2016 to promote Trump’s election.
David, the government administration in Washington has openly demonstrated their intent to enlist/compel private social media outlets as poxy censors in order to control the flow of information. In other words, the administration is engaging in a concerted effort to write the script of what its citizens can believe, what they can express, and what they are allowed to share and post on social media. This is an outright violation of freedom of speech, the concept of informed decision making and individual autonomy… It may not fit the exact definition of the 1st Amendment but it doesn’t make it any less egregious.
when a corporate entity becomes ubiquitous in commerce, it is in the category of an utility. FaceBook is at that stage now.
corporations are creatures of the government. Mussolini gave a good definition of ‘fascism’ as is happening in your neighbourhood, this very day
What we have today in America ( even earlier in Canada, not so much Mexico ) is Red Fascism.
… evident to those of us who have eyes to see, is …. the Biden administration telegraphing its intent to regulate not only which corporations will be winners or losers in the marketplace ( already happening ) but what is allowed to be expressed in what was formerly – the free marketplace of ideas. Criminalization of ideas the party in power doesn’t like
Facebook is a hugely profitable company, but not because it is ubiquitous in commerce. It actually does relatively little in commerce compared with, say, Amazon. No, Facebook makes its money by running the most effective advertising site anywhere….made effective by all the user data it possesses. Facebook would like to be more active in commerce, but hasn’t quite come up with the magic formula yet. You lost me there in your verbiage about Biden picking winners and losers. Trump was the champ there- his most blatant effort came when he negated Amazon’s win of a $10 billion Defense contract for a new cloud capability, because he hated Jeff Bezos for allowing the Washington Post to operate a free press. Microsoft eventually won the contract, and most recently, DOD canceled the whole project and is starting over to try and obtain a nonpartisan bidding process.
