The Graphical Truth?

  Kung Flu Stupidity

I really wanted to finally write something about the Twitter Files today, only a month or two late here. However, after spending time reading and writing under Ron Unz's latest anti-"anti-vaxxer" article, I decided to use some of this.

In yesterday's Vaxxing Deaths or Covid Deaths?, Mr. Unz comes across very reasonable* and even civil in the comments too. (From that, I was a little worried he's under the weather - he says he didn't take a booster, so it's not that... whewww...)

I used "anti-"anti-vaxxer"" above, because I can't be sure if Ron Unz gets the idea that being against mandatory vaccination is not at all the same as being against anyone's taking the vaccine. Besides those who are sure this Kung Flu vaccination push is a purposeful depopulation via death or sterility program, most of us have a live and let live, errr, "live and let die" attitude about it. That is the reverse, but equally sensible, policy that Ron Unz has written. He would not wish to to force vaccinations on people - if they die they can learn the hard way. (I say the same thing, though we tried to avoid that with our family member, mentioned again below.) Mr. Unz should find a better term, "Vax-Choicers", perhaps? Then, he'd be one too, of course ...

I will present briefly 3 anecdotes two that I've already written more detailed posts on and one that I'd written about in an Unz Review comment before.

At the early stage of the Kung Flu PanicFest, April 15th and 16th, respectively, Peak Stupidity had the 2 posts, Kung Flu Mission Creep + Goosing the Numbers and Are Kung Flu death counts being goosed for insurance reasons?. To summarize my experience with this incentivizing the logging of deaths as being from the Kung Flu:

My healthcare plan told us early on (April ’20, AIR) that that there would be no deductible taken into account and no co-pay taken, for any medical treatment “due to” Covid-19. I think that’s a lot of incentive for the patient (obviously) and the doctors and medical businesses (they spend a LOT of money on their billing/collections departments) to call an office visit, a hospitalization, and a death, as being from the Covid-19.

Two years later I related in the post Kung Flu Kash the story I'll summarize thusly:

A close, 86 y/o family member of mine had heart/blood pressure problems only after taking the vaccine and all boosters (very insistent was she). She’d had LOW blood pressure her whole life before, to the point where some doctors would worry a bit. Did anyone think of entering this info in the VAERS database? Nah, you need help from the doctors with that, and I could tell the cardio guy didn’t want to talk about it. She died. (No doubt, she had other problems, but the heart problems were brand new.)

Finally, from nearly the same time this past summer:

My friend’d, also 86 y/o, Dad died (within a less than week-long period of illness) from what was very obviously a GI problem (lots of blood in the stool, etc.) for which they didn’t want to operate (old, with dementia). What was cause of death? Covid-19! (He'd been tested back at the nursing home, just as a routine when being transported anyway.) Well, GI problems are simply NOT one of the many symptoms of that virus. However, $9,000 for funeral expenses to his Mom speaks louder than my friends words in question to the doctor. (The Doc changed it at first, but then changed it back to COVID-19 a few days later.) I’m pretty sure the medical facilities STILL get “CARES ACT” or what-have-you funds from the US Government taxpayers.

Now, the first thing any naysayers will tell you is data is not the plural of anecdotes! or some such thing. No, see, my point is not to use single data points to try to make graphs and see trends. The point of the anecdotes is to demonstrate that the data that IS being collected is likely bogus. It's HIGHLY unlikely that any of these quick anecdotes are something special for my location, mine, or my friend's family. We've all read the reports of the Covid-19 Motorcycle deaths (and other outliers that still illustrate the example) and wondered how prevalent this all is. It IS prevalent. The incentives are there and nobody is picking on me alone.

Now, let us look at some graphs, shall we? The first is the one Ron Unz used in his article. He got it from page from the Health System Tracker website that says COVID-19 leading cause of death ranking.



Look at the big pink hill that spans July '21 to April '22. I suppose that purports to be the Delta variant of the Kung Flu. Now, I'd first thought, and written, that this was the time of the biggest push for vaccinations. This was when Big Biz quit cajoling and started threatening. Deadlines to avoid termination were first of Nov '21, end of Nov '21, and "better tell us WTF you're gonna do right now, in Oct '21, from yet again, 3 anecdotes of mine. Yet again, though, these are anecdotes that are examples of what were widespread practices throughout the country.

Now upon looking at data on American vaccination, I see I was partly wrong. This WAS the time of the big push, but that was to get the %-vaccinated numbers up toward 100. The EXPERTS wanted this, for reasons we suspect as nefarious, it was a big goal of the Globalists, with government agencies, Big Biz, and universities all requiring it, or trying to. However, most Americans had gotten at least the initial vaccination by the Summer of '21. (Who knew? I wanted no part of it.) Here is a graph of initially vaccinated, "fully vaccinated" (for whatever number of jabs that included at the time), and boostered up, from USA Today.



Yes, it IS strange for Peak Stupidity to use the USA Today standard Lyin' Press outlet for a source. It's usually best used as a doormat outside hotel rooms. However, this is just good graphical output without opinion**. If you recall, our site used to append "Infotainment" as a prefix to "PanicFest", as this whole thing was a godsend to the Lyin' Press. Another way to put it is that they had a big incentive to push the panic. This USA Today page is one that has been updated very regularly, it's got thematic/schematic maps of State and county level vaccination rates. One could have kept up with the infotainment on this page for the last 2 years, going "Hey, your State sucks! We're way ahead of you! Rah, rah!" or "Yeah, well your State sucks! You're way ahead of US!"

Note the scale of these numbers. They are daily counts. On one day in early April of '21, 2 million Americans took the jab!

However, I'm now interested in that booster shot surge from Oct '21 through March '22. That happened at roughly the same time as the big supposed rise in the Covid-19 death count as seen in the first graph here. It's does not exactly overlap though. The rise in supposed Covid-19 deaths is just ahead of the big surge in booster shots. The fall in supposed Covid-19 deaths is a month or month and a half later than the end of the big boostering effort.

That doesn't support cause and effect exactly. I would not dare venture to state that booster vaccine deaths have been mostly marked as Covid-19 deaths. There are a quarter million deaths or so under that portion of the pink line, whatever it really represents. However, some, or even many, of those deaths could have been booster or other vaccine induced. The incentives have been there the whole time, going both ways. It's easy to test positive, and being vaccinated may even help.*** Chalking up a death to the Kung Flu pays, while trying to document a vaccine-caused death not only doesn't pay but is made difficult.

Back to a simple anecdotes that may indeed mean nothing, I've never known anyone personally who died of the Kung Flu. I do know someone whose death was hastened by the vaccines and more so, the booster shot.

Then you've got the football player who just keeled over on the field last night. Very bad luck on the hit, they say. Yeah, has that happened much before these vaccines? There's been a lot of this, and it's not business as usual.

Anyway, beware reading graphs of data recorded by the Establishment, medical or otherwise. Your conclusion may be what they want you to conclude but not the truth. The truth is out there... somewhere... but I'm no Fox Mulder either.



* Although, he did feel the need to paste in his Kung Flu-as-American-bioweapon-against-China theory at the bottom. In this case, that has not much to do with the rest of this writing.

** It does link the reader to "Where can I get a COVID-19 vaccine?" and "Vaccines.gov" without anything like "What are my side effects?", which is something of a bias, I suppose.

*** That was the situation with my friend's Dad who died of a GI problem. He'd been vaxxed AND he tested positive. I'm not saying they go together necessarily, of course.

PS

Mr Smith, not exactly a typo- what I meant was that Fauci and others were well aware of the nature of this virus, well aware that lockdowns, masks, all the trappings of the Covid religion were worse than useless. I blame my advanced age for the confusion . I see Fauci a a Dr. Evil level villain.

PS: Mr. Smith, thanks for the 3 similar memes on conformism vs intelligence.

It's amazing that it's so hard to find out whether that football player got vaxxed or not. It sounds like he's getting better now, so he should be able to tell someone... if he's allowed to.

PS: Yeah, Mr. Ganderson, I noticed that the Lyin' Press is trying to put the 3 ailments together, the Viral Triad, as you wrote. Anything to re-create the PanicFest is a good thing for them, as they had so many viewers/readers hanging on their every word, number, and graph. They must miss it dearly by now.

If that ALG makes ANY Massachusetts high official look like Ron DeSantis, he's a literal Stalin, or something. I'm so sorry you have to put up with any of that. This brings up one thing.

Most normal people are hoping this Panic was a one-off. If the Globalist elites, the Feds, and local governments too have a re-enactment, this Federalism thing may go farther than the small steps it has. People may separate according to their belief in freedom vs. Police State "security". That wouldn't be a bad thing - it'd make it easier to draw the lines.

PS: Greetings, Mr. Ganderson & Friends,

I can't find any sort of straight answer on the internet about Damar Hamlin's Vaxx status. Presumably he was following whatever sort of protocol the Bill's demanded of their players. If he were an anti-vaxxer he would likely have made the news as such. (Possibly even fined by the Bill's or the league like some of his teammates.)

It would be nice to know if he was boosted recently as it would help establish what is true and what is speculation. Instead the media is just yelling “Misinformation!” at the top of their collective lungs through their giant megaphone when anyone suggests that Hamlin's cardiac arrest might be caused by the clot shot. (This behavior from the media is even less helpful than people yelling “Vaxx!” every time some celebrity or athlete has an adverse health event. Even if Hamlin is fully boosted he may truly be experiencing an episode of commotio cordis or something else entirely. We'll probably never learn what really happened in this hyper partisan environment.)

“I've had the 'Rona as many as 3 times...”
That's how you know that double shot of Pfizer is working. 😉

“While I believe people like Fauci knew what they were doing...” Is this a typo? (Honest question.)

“There seems to me to be a correlation between higher levels of education, and presumably intelligence, and acceptance of the Covid Religion.”

I too have noticed that there seems to be a positive correlation between educational attainment and belief in the Ever Lasting Corona Moloch. (PBUH) I tend to agree that higher levels of education do select for intelligence to some degree* (or well, used to. I think they have broken the acceptance process in the name of dieversity**.), but more importantly it also selects for conformity and willingness to jump through hoops to impress people perceived to be of authority.

Many (most?) highly educated people have been conditioned by their education (as well as their parents, society, their employment, their church, etc.) to (at the very least) acquiesce to the demands of “authority” or (in many cases) to be enthusiastic supporters of “authority's” policies. Some (many?) of these people embrace the masks, the vaccines, the social distancing, the elbow bumps, the arbitrary rules... They are, as you say, True Believers.

Intelligence alone is not what is determining anyone's acceptance of the Corona Religion.

(Intelligence may not even be a driving force behind many people's decision to accept (or not) the Corona Moloch into their heart?)

*It's a decent indicator up to an IQ of ~120 to maybe ~130. After ~130 (maybe ~125?) you're as likely as not to go to college/university.

**(not a typo)

A gross oversimplification of vaccine acceptance by IQ in 3 memes...

Mr. Alarmist- do you have a citation that the Bills' player got boosted? Not doubting you, mind you, but it would be helpful in the unlikely event I can convince someone around here that I'm not a crazy conspiracy theory guy.

Of course I have become more of a conspiracy theory (or spoiler alert) guy- I just don't think I'm crazy.

PS

I guess I agree with both Mr. Blanc and Mr. Mod.

Now, I'm just a retired History teacher, but during the initial vaccine roll out, when they were touting them as 100% effective, I thought to myself, bullshit- no vaccine is 100% effective, not to mention we've not ever come up with one for any corona virus. I caved to familial pressure and got the Pfizer two-shot, but no more. In retrospect I shouldn't have gotten the jabs, (I never get a flu shot, or as I like to call it, a "Flu shot in the dark") No more jabs for me, though. By my count, I've had the 'Rona as many as 3 times- and passed it on.

I'd love for there to be a Covid Nürnberg, or Truth and Reconciliation Commission - I'd trade punishment of these bastards in return for the truth, but I'm not holding my breath.

One other thing- while I believe people like Fauci knew what they were doing, there are a lot of true believers out there- and there seems to me to be a correlation between higher levels of education, and presumably intelligence, and acceptance of the Covid Religion.* Lots of people in our neck of the woods are still masked, social distanced, etc. One local school district is seriously considering reinstating mask requirements. Lots of talk here about the "viral triad" Corona, flu, and RSV. Should be good for another lockdown here, especially since we now have an angry lesbian governor- she's going to make Charlie Baker, who many of us believe is the worst governor in MA history (think about that: worse than M. Stanley Dukakis, Jane Swift, Deval Patrick) look like Ron DeSantis.

* Covidianism and GlobalWarmism are two rites of the same religion- I they both accept the legitimacy of the others' sacraments.

PS I think that Whitmer and her ilk fit my model. I doubt that she was trying to reduce the population of Michigan, or anywhere else. When the Plague came, she saw an opportunity to be a Hero! and save her constituents from Certain Death! Since she’s a Stalinist by nature, she chose Stalinist methods to accomplish her aim. But the motivation was the same as the rest of them. It didn’t work, of course, because anyone with two-brain cells to rub together knows that you can’t hide from an airborne-transmitted virus. If Whitmer hadn’t been a midwit listening to the “experts”, she’d have known that.

I don't give some of the PanicFest crowd that much credit, Mr. Blanc. Yes, President Trump, some of the Governors, school Principals, etc. are in that category, along with probably lots of scientists with big heads, out there "saving humanity" (like Alex Washburne, even). How would you categorize "Stretchin' Gretchin Whitmer, STILL (dammit!) Governor of Michigan, Mr. Blanc? I think her Totalitarian tendencies far overwhelmed her desire to save Michiganders from certain death, just as one example.

PS I know that there are those who claim that the entire Covid-19 event, including the so-called vaccines, was monumental plot by the global elites to reduce the Earth’s burgeoning population. I don’t know that this isn’t the case. But I doubt it. Whatever they knew of the origins of the virus, Those Who Rule Us saw it as an opportunity to be Heroes! and save their constituents from this Deadly Plague. They wanted to believe that the “vaccines” were “safe and effective”. So, they did believe it. Some of them still believe it. Whilst I don’t doubt that there was some malice involved, my money is on midwit incompetence on the part or pols (I’m looking at you, Donald Trump) who took the advice of midwit “experts” who knew—in the strong sense of “know”—little more than the pols knew.

Oi, so many thoughts, so little time. First, on the football player, notice how all the Pharma shills came out almost instantly with "commotio cordis!" almost like they had it planned and ready to go as an excuse (99% yes, they did). Except... it's an extremely rare condition, normally strikes people under the age of 18 and requires a very, very targeted strike from a small, speedy projectile, like a baseball or hockey puck. This was NOT the type of hit the football guy had.

Anyway, more deets on that here: https://wholistic.substack.com/p/damar-hamlin-commotio-cordis-usually

As for the general Covid stats baloney, one of the big, big cons was how they didn't record you as "vaccinated" until 14 days after you got jabbed. Huh. Thing is, though, that the jab causes an immediate and significant disruption to your immune system, which meant lots of people got Covid RIGHT AFTER THE JAB because they were more vulnerable to it. Some of them died of it quickly, yet those were ALL considered "unvaccinated." And then if you died from a vax reaction (a lot of the short term deaths seem tagged to "bad batches"), and also tested positive, you were yet another Covid death. At this point, the data is hopelessly corrupted.

Well, now we know definitively that the jab is bad, bad, bad for you. Unsafe and uneffective! And the more times you get it, the worse off you are, and by a lot more worse with each booster. But then, I knew almost immediately when the jabs were released that (1) they wouldn't work because they were based on a variant that WAS ALREADY GONE before the shots rolled out and (2) they would be dangerous because they hijacked your immune system via RNA transfection to respond with only one type of antibody (they are transfections, NOT vaccines).

So it was well understood (though highly censored) that the shots were going to be bad. What we didn't know, and couldn't know, was HOW bad and in how many ways. Now we're seeing the results -- infertility, heart damage, turbo-charged cancers, worsened allergy symptoms, on and on. Turns out the mRNA jabs are an incredibly broad-brush poison, impacting people in many different ways, and in many long-term ways we can only speculate, because they are still so new. But as we learn more about HOW the damage is caused (the recent reports on IgG4 for instance), the more we understand how very, very, VERY VERY VERY bad this stuff is.

I hope there is some kind of reckoning. But I doubt it, at least not in America. Though thanks to Elon Musk at least many of the anti-vax voices are back on Twitter.

Fauci is Eye-talian, and in years gone by would not count as White, much like some other groups in North Africa and the Middle East.

TPTB were very quick to call it CC and dismiss the possibility it was the vaxx... seems they have a problem with thorough investigations and facts.

We don’t know if it was the vaxxes ... but it was the vaxxes.

Dude was boosted last week, and they quickly scrubbed social media of the evidence of that after he dropped.

PS

Mr. Unz is positioning himself to the middle of the issue, probably because he’s not yet comfortable with embracing the truth that The Science™️ is actually scientific. He relies heavily on statistics that are at best questionable, e.g. COVID has actually killed a million Americans, even though it was in way too many cases accompanied with other factors, like motor vehicle accidents. At the same time he buys the vastly undercounted vaxx serious incident and related deaths stats. As I jokingly commented somewhere north of #500, if only Sidney Schanberg were still around to look deeply into the matter.

re Marek’s, Vaxxing the flock with a non-sterilizing vaxx (essentially one that does not fully stop spread) allows a virus to spread without losing much of its lethality ... the immunized birds have attenuated symptoms, and can still shed the virus to all birds, such that unvaxxed birds will all likely die, where in the normal course of natural selection in absence of vaxxes, the virus would likely lose its lethality as it evolved to be more transmissible in absence if the influence of the vaxx. The perverse thing about COVID vaxxes is they might act like the Mareks vaxxes to keep COVID more lethal than it might be, but still kill the vaxxed hosts prematurely by other knock-on effects.

That's an interesting concept, Adam. The timelines sure tell some story. Would we be better off it the virus just went though the population and we got immune and it got less deadly? That's the normal way of things. What is a Marek's style disease, BTW?
