Denmark has fewer than 6 million people – 1/60th as many as the United States.

Nearly its all adults are vaccinated, mostly with the Pfizer mRNA vaccine that is the world’s supposed gold standard. Half have received third “booster” doses.

On Wednesday Denmark reported 28,000 Covid infections – equal to about 1.7 million in the United States.

The figures are similar in the United Kingdom, and all over Western Europe. Many countries are at 90 percent adult Covid vaccination levels, with boosters soaring. And they are all now in the midst of an epidemic of Covid contagion that dwarfs any that has come before.

The vaccines sure seem to have failed.

That’s wrong, though.

The reality is worse.

The data from several countries now show clearly that infection rates are higher in vaccinated people.

Iceland has a 91 percent vaccination rate (and an over 50 percent booster rate) in its population over 12. This is its chart of cases per-capita by vaccination status. Not absolute, per-capita. Dark blue is fully vaccinated, light blue is unvaccinated, black is boosted.

Alex is one of the very few reporters left who is doing real reporting and analysis.  He can’t work in legacy media any more because it has become a mouthpiece for the state.

What was once long hair, Woodstock and “question authority” has become “shut up” and follow your leaders so fast you almost missed it, yah?

But vast numbers of Americans are learning the truth and applying it in their daily lives.  The legacy media is so dead it doesn’t even know that it’s dead.

Hopefully everyone knows that by now, but this post will be a dump of recent papers, articles and reports.

From Steve Kirsch, substack.

I got an email recently from Mike Yeadon, former VP of Pfizer, who urged me to check out this video. He wrote me this email on 12/24/21:

Steve,

This is about the worst 15min I’ve ever seen.

Mass covid19 vaccination is leading to mass murder.

Mike

The video references this paper, posted on December 10, 2021, On COVID vaccines: why they cannot work, and irrefutable evidence of their causative role in deaths after vaccination by Sucharit Bhakdi, MD and Arne Burkhardt, MD. It has been getting a lot of attention lately.

BLUF: The vaccine was implicated in 93% of the deaths in the patients they examined. What’s troubling is the coroner didn’t implicate the vaccine in any of those deaths.

They’re not going to implicate themselves or their colleagues.  They’re scared.

At America’s Frontline Doctors.

A Lancet study comparing vaccinated and unvaccinated people in Sweden was conducted among 1.6 million individuals over nine months. It showed that protection against symptomatic COVID-19 declined with time, such that by six months, some of the more vulnerable vaccinated groups were at greater risk than their unvaccinated peers.

Doctors are calling this phenomena in the repeatedly vaccinated “immune erosion” or “acquired immune deficiency”, accounting for elevated incidence of myocarditis and other post-vaccine illnesses that either affect them more rapidly, resulting in death, or more slowly, resulting in chronic illness.

COVID vaccines are not traditional vaccines. Rather, they cause cells to reproduce one portion of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, the spike protein. The vaccines thus induce the body to create spike proteins. A person only creates antibodies against this one limited portion (the spike protein) of the virus. This has several downstream deleterious effects.

First, these vaccines “mis-train” the immune system to recognize only a small part of the virus (the spike protein). Variants that differ, even slightly, in this protein are able to escape the narrow spectrum of antibodies created by the vaccines.

Second, the vaccines create “vaccine addicts,” meaning persons become dependent upon regular booster shots, because they have been “vaccinated” only against a tiny portion of a mutating virus.

[ … ]

… the vaccinated become more clinically ill than the unvaccinated. Scotland reported that the infection fatality rate in the vaccinated is 3.3 times the unvaccinated, and the risk of death if hospitalized is 2.15 times the unvaccinated.

From Alex Berenson, the vaccines don’t stop Covid hospitalizations or deaths.

And finally, if you think you can’t trust a single person, institution or agency around you under any circumstances under the sun, you can always trust the actuarial.  If they’re wrong, companies go bankrupt.  Via Vox, this report from an insurance company.

The head of Indianapolis-based insurance company OneAmerica said the death rate is up a stunning 40% from pre-pandemic levels among working-age people.

“We are seeing, right now, the highest death rates we have seen in the history of this business – not just at OneAmerica,” the company’s CEO Scott Davison said during an online news conference this week. “The data is consistent across every player in that business.”

OneAmerica is a $100 billion insurance company that has had its headquarters in Indianapolis since 1877. The company has approximately 2,400 employees and sells life insurance, including group life insurance to employers in the state.

Davison said the increase in deaths represents “huge, huge numbers,” and that’s it’s not elderly people who are dying, but “primarily working-age people 18 to 64” who are the employees of companies that have group life insurance plans through OneAmerica.

“And what we saw just in third quarter, we’re seeing it continue into fourth quarter, is that death rates are up 40% over what they were pre-pandemic,” he said.

“Just to give you an idea of how bad that is, a three-sigma or a one-in-200-year catastrophe would be 10% increase over pre-pandemic,” he said. “So 40% is just unheard of.”

Davison was one of several business leaders who spoke during the virtual news conference on Dec. 30 that was organized by the Indiana Chamber of Commerce.

Most of the claims for deaths being filed are not classified as COVID-19 deaths, Davison said.

“What the data is showing to us is that the deaths that are being reported as COVID deaths greatly understate the actual death losses among working-age people from the pandemic. It may not all be COVID on their death certificate, but deaths are up just huge, huge numbers.”

He said at the same time, the company is seeing an “uptick” in disability claims, saying at first it was short-term disability claims, and now the increase is in long-term disability claims.

“For OneAmerica, we expect the costs of this are going to be well over $100 million, and this is our smallest business. So it’s having a huge impact on that,” he said.

He said the costs will be passed on to employers purchasing group life insurance policies, who will have to pay higher premiums.

The CDC weekly death counts, which reflect the information on death certificates and so have a lag of up to eight weeks or longer, show that for the week ending Nov. 6, there were far fewer deaths from COVID-19 in Indiana compared to a year ago – 195 verses 336 – but more deaths from other causes – 1,350 versus 1,319.

These deaths were for people of all ages, however, while the information referenced by Davison was for working-age people who are employees of businesses with group life insurance policies.

At the same news conference where Davison spoke, Brian Tabor, the president of the Indiana Hospital Association, said that hospitals across the state are being flooded with patients “with many different conditions,” saying “unfortunately, the average Hoosiers’ health has declined during the pandemic.”

In a follow-up call, he said he did not have a breakdown showing why so many people in the state are being hospitalized – for what conditions or ailments. But he said the extraordinarily high death rate quoted by Davison matched what hospitals in the state are seeing.

“What it confirmed for me is it bore out what we’re seeing on the front end,…” he said.

The number of hospitalizations in the state is now higher than before the COVID-19 vaccine was introduced a year ago, and in fact is higher than it’s been in the past five years, Dr. Lindsay Weaver, Indiana’s chief medical officer, said at a news conference with Gov. Eric Holcomb on Wednesday.

Just 8.9% of ICU beds are available at hospitals in the state, a low for the year, and lower than at any time during the pandemic. But the majority of ICU beds are not taken up by COVID-19 patients – just 37% are, while 54% of the ICU beds are being occupied by people with other illnesses or conditions.

Make sure to catch the part in bold again.  And read it again.

I would put this squarely in the category of clinical mental illness of some sort (or various sorts).

In honor of the fact that she apparently restricted who could see her picture, here it is from a screen capture.

This doctor says by a factor of 100 (I’ll embed the video below).

This paper comes up with a value of at least 20 (twenty).  VAERS underreports vaccine injuries by a factor of 20.  Yes, I read the paper.  No, I didn’t download the data and calculations from Github and independently confirm the results.  I wish I had that much time, but I’m working too many projects at the moment to do that.  Alas, if I was independently wealthy … or paid to do the review.

But since I know how difficult it is to prepare formal papers and do the work behind them, and since I have my own Researchgate site, I have immense respect for anyone who has the confidence to put their work out for review (including all data and calculations) and take the beating that might come.

Natural News.

A Virginia hospital has yielded to a court order and allowed ivermectin to be given to a patient infected with the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19). The medical facility permitted the use of the anti-parasitic drug after a judge threatened fines of $10,000 per day.

The move was a victory for the family of Kathy Davies, who has been receiving COVID-19 treatment for several months at Fauquier Health in Warrenton, Virginia. Her husband and son launched a legal battle against the hospital earlier in December 2021 to allow the use of ivermectin on her.

Davies’ family decided to take action after the hospital’s standard protocols – which included placing her on a ventilator – did not improve her condition. An anonymous friend of the family said Fauquier Health had also been giving her remdesivir, which is said to increase the risk of causing the liver and kidneys to fail.

The Davies family explored the possibility of ivermectin following the initial recommendation of family physician Dr. Martha Maturi. However, Fauquier Health rejected the proposal – leading to Davies’ relatives taking legal action. A back-and-forth legal battle between the hospital and the family led to an initial Dec. 9 court ruling that ordered the use of ivermectin, which the hospital refused to obey.

A later judgment on Dec. 13 from Circuit Court Judge James P. Fisher found that Fauquier Health was in contempt of court for refusing to allow ivermectin for Davies. According to the Daily Wire, the judge gave the hospital three choices: comply, appeal the court order or face the $10,000 per day fine. The fines would be retroactively imposed beginning Dec. 9.

Fauquier Health finally complied with the court order on Dec. 13, permitting Maturi to administer ivermectin to Davies after 41 days on a ventilator. She received her first dose on the same day and is set to continue treatment using the drug.

“Kathy just started on her ivermectin last night, and that’s by the power of prayer,” the family friend told LifeSiteNews in a Dec. 14 phone interview. (Related: UPDATE: Husband & father dies after being denied ivermectin by hospital.)

In his Dec. 13 ruling, Fisher argued that Fauquier Health had inadequate reasons to block the ivermectin treatment. He also pointed out that the hospital did not bother to conduct “an analysis of the merits of ivermectin as a treatment protocol.” Thus, Fisher concluded that the hospital would need to make “all reasonable effort” to facilitate the treatment Davies’ family seeks.

In a Dec. 15 statement, Fauquier Health said Maturi did not have privileges to practice at the hospital. It added that they could not allow her a physician who is not a staff member to administer medication as it would “violate standard practice and Virginia law.”

[ … ]

Kory subsequently tweeted: “[I] just heard the hospital [administrators] were freaking out trying to get [a registered nurse] to give ivermectin by 9 p.m. Nothing like $50,000 and a PR nightmare facing you, versus just another COVID patient dying from a care standard set by profits and supported by the craven, or ignorant complicity of most medical doctors.”

Wow.  Brave actions by the medical staff indeed.  Perhaps they can crawl on hands and knees to Fauci’s home and beg his forgiveness for administering something that is tolerated well, not dangerous, and has a much better chance of success than his Remdesivir (which destroys the liver and kidneys).  Maybe high priest Fauci can absolve them of their sins by virtue of the fact that they were forced to do this.

GP.

Eastport-South Manor Central School District (ESM) in Suffolk County, New York sent out an email to all parents informing them about the new physician in their district.   The new hiring was part of the new regulations regarding Sudden Cardiac Arrest of students Grades K- 12.

In addition, districts are required to make sure that all staff are aware of the warning signs of sudden cardiac arrest and what to do if a person experiences sudden cardiac arrest, the email continued.

A concerned parent reached out to The Gateway Pundit saying that the email is very suspicious, considering New York is very close to mandating the COVID shot for students to attend school.

Ah yes, the good ole’ days in grammar school.  I recall them well, with kids dropping dead from heart problems and doctors on scene to try to save them.

Good Lord.

The FDA is working with the post office to hold packages containing ivermectin. The FDA could better use its resources to, I don’t know, publicly release the docs submitted by Pfizer to license its mandated liability-free V earlier than 75 years from now! https://t.co/i6eLcqnciX pic.twitter.com/O2d1zgTjAB

Because they are evil and would rather see people perish.  After all, India cured Covid with Ivermectin – we can’t allow the fear porn to stop and make this go away. They might lose their leverage over the poors.

Seen at Vox Day, this article.

Recently, I received news that top researchers at multiple highly respected institutions (including Harvard) who had earlier been publicly promoting the vaccine have now changed their minds and are privately refusing to get the booster.

How is that possible? Did we finally convince them with the data? Most of my truthteller friends have been censored and/or deplatformed. So what is causing these people to shift their views so quickly?

The credit for the attitude shift goes our best convincer: the vaccine itself.

These researchers are seeing first hand how dangerous the vaccine is because they are involved in studies in hospitalized and/or outpatients and they see the numbers first hand.

Of course, they can’t say anything officially since they would be fired or have their funding taken away.

The nurses, NPs and PAs saw it before the doctors did, and openly admitted it all (many of them refusing to take the shot).

The doctors risked the loss of too much money.

Today they changed the definition of “fully vaccinated” and declared that the most recently named variant will be a three-dose regimen.

It becomes more absurd with each day that passes.

How about this one?  “The Food and Drug Administration is asking a judge to give it 75 years to produce data concerning the Pfizer and BioNTech vaccine, up 20 years from a previous request.”

Uh huh.  Makes sense.

News.

As set forth in more detail in its Order, a Georgia federal district court judge today issued an injunction halting enforcement of Executive Order 14042, which requires that federal contractors and subcontractors with specific types of covered contracts ensure that their covered employees are fully vaccinated against COVID-19 by January 18^th, 2022.

As the Order states,

Accordingly,  the Court ORDERS that Defendants are ENJOINED, during the pendency of this action or until further order of this Court, from enforcing the vaccine mandate for federal contractors and subcontractors in all covered contracts in any state or territory of the United States of America.

In a brief 28-page decision U.S. District Court Judge R. Stan Baker found

it necessary, in order to truly afford injunctive relief to the parties before it, to issue an injunction with nationwide applicability.

The case was initially filed by the states of Georgia, Alabama, Idaho, Kansas, South Carolina, Utah and West Virginia.  However, Associated Builders and Contractors, Inc. a nationwide trade organization “representing tens of thousands of contractors and subcontractors that regularly bid on and work on federal contracts for services” petitioned to intervene in the suit and joined the states in their request for a preliminary injunction.

In granting the injunction, Judge Baker found

The Court finds that Plaintiffs have a likelihood of proving that Congress, through the language it used, did not clearly authorize the President to issue the kind of mandate contained in EO 14042, as EO 14042 goes far beyond addressing administrative and management issues in order to promote efficiency and economy in procurement and contracting, and instead, in application, works as a regulation of public health, which is not clearly authorized under the Procurement Act.

The Court also found that “Plaintiffs have a likelihood of proving that EO 14042 does not have a sufficient nexus to the purposes of the Procurement Act and thus does not fall within the authority actually granted to the President in that Act.”

This Order follows the order of a Kentucky federal court also enjoining enforcement of the Executive Order in Kentucky, Ohio and Tennessee.  In contrast, today’s Order halts enforcement of the Executive Order nationwide.

Zero Hedge is also covering this.  This one comment sums up how I feel about all of this.

Damage has been done. How many lost their jobs over an illegal order? How many millions that didnt want the death jab were forced by their employer? You can vote your way into communism but you have to shoot your way out.

As I’ve noted before, the cowering cowards of the SCOTUS have already declined to hear this several times and let the mandate go forward, knowing full well it’s unconstitutional.

Oh, they would probably say something like “But cases must be heard first at the appellate court level to flush out the issues.”  In the mean time, good men and women get injured, and religious rights get violated.

One good sign is that some prog commentator is astonished at Gorsuch and pens this ridiculous title “Neil Gorsuch’s Terrifying Paragraph.”

“I accept that what we said 11 months ago remains true today – that ‘[s]temming the spread of COVID-19’ qualifies as ‘a compelling inter­est.’ At the same time, I would acknowledge that this interest cannot qualify as such forever. Back when we decided Roman Catholic Diocese, there were no widely distributed vac­cines. Today there are three. At that time, the country had comparably few treatments for those suffering with the disease. Today we have additional treatments and more appear near. If human nature and history teach anything, it is that civil liberties face grave risks when governments proclaim indefinite states of emergency.”

That’s weak tea, but tea nonetheless.  Hopefully the SCOTUS does the right thing when it finally makes its way to them – and it will make its way to them.

It would have been better to have addressed this months ago.
