Israel has an old fashioned greatest-good-for-the-greatest-number style philosophy, so it’s interesting to keep an eye on what they do. From the Times of Israel:
Netanyahu aims for 25% of Israelis vaccinated in month; 250,000 had shots so far
PM says he wants to lift pace of inoculations to 150,000 a day; another 5,433 virus cases found, day before 3rd lockdown; Health Minister intends to vaccinate teachers this week
By TOI STAFF
26 December 2020, 7:04 pm 1Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Saturday he sought to reach a vaccination rate of around 150,000 people a day within a week, and to have inoculated over 2 million Israelis by the end of January.
Israel’s population is about 9 million.
Though the Health Ministry had yet to issue updated figures after Shabbat, Channel 12 News reported that some 266,000 people had gotten the first of two shots by the end of the first week of Israel’s vaccination push.
At a pace of 150,000 vaccines administered a day, Netanyahu said that within a month 2.25 million Israelis could receive both doses of the vaccine. That amounts to over a quarter of Israel’s 9.25 million population.
“This is the critical stage… because this is the entire at-risk population: All the medical teams, all the people over 60. Within this stratum is 95 percent of the mortality. Once we finish this stage, within 30 days we can get out of the coronavirus [pandemic], open the economy and do things that no other state can do,” he claimed, echoing an assertion he made Thursday.
Health Minister Yuli Edelstein said in a statement Saturday night he would seek to vaccinate the country’s teaching professionals this week, to help protect them as schools remain open during a new national lockdown. …
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu predicted on Thursday that Israel would likely be the first country in the world to overcome the pandemic. “I want to tell you that the combination of the marvelous vaccine campaign on the one hand, and a short and quick lockdown on the other, is allowing us to get out of the coronavirus [pandemic],” Netanyahu said in a statement. “And we’ll likely be the first country to get out of [it], within a few weeks,” he added.
Israel is signed up for 8 million doses of the Pfizer vaccine and 6 million of Moderna, enough for 7 million people. Bahrain has been inoculating residents with the Chinese Sinopharm vaccine for more than a month.
If something turns out to be wrong with the vaccine, well…
I hope they were discriminating against the untermenschen as usual.
Netanyahu allegedly agreed to pay much more per-vaccine than other countries.
Germany donated half a billion to help with manufacturing of te Biontech/Pfizer vacccine, but they didn't call up all of the doses they had rights to and also waited till the EU was ready to buy to avoid "nationalist" "Alleingänge", and the EU waited till all the others buyers had spoken.
Now we can't even activate all of the vaccication centers that were set up in great haste because we have too little vaccine to go around, less that tiny Israel.
“This vaccine is terrible, and such small portions”.
Why is China so low?
By the way, let’s assume that third world countries are slow to utilize the vaccine. Would that imply that the virus could continue to mutate significantly?
One of the guesses about the U.K. mutation is that it happened in a single person with a partly broken immune system, so it was a matter of SARS-CoV-2 variants competing with each other inside one body that resulted in so many changes at once. Herd immunity is probably required to to stop that particular method, but many people in the world aren't going to be vaccinated for months, years, or ever that we can expect such changes to continue to happen.
‘Israel is signed up for 8 million doses of the Pfizer vaccine and 6 million of Moderna, enough for 7 million people.’
I wonder if that’s calculated to be enough for half the people under Israeli rule, or enough for all the Jews?
…sounds more like inoculate all the Jews and let the gentiles die, but I won’t jump to conclusions. It’ll actually be mildly interesting if Israel starts simultaneously getting flak from overseas for giving priority to Jews and flak from the folks at home for giving any vaccine at all to gentiles while there are still Jews who haven’t been innoculated.
Your insinuations about Jews getting priority over Arabs are based on what evidence?
The highest priority is Jerusalem, because it's the hardest-hit big city. And Jerusalem is about 40% Arab.Replies: @Colin Wright
And if you're implying something about the West Bank and Gaza, well, virtually all of those people rule themselves, or would if they were a democracy.
The Palestinian territories are left to their own or the UN'S devices. As they have one of the youngest populations on earth, they don't need it quite as badly as others.
A small country with highly centralised administration.
Because it’s a hoax.
And will ignore annoying minority groups when necessary.
They should come over and inoculate New York City and my neighbors here in the surrounding environs while they’re at it — because that would essentially be an extension of the project.

Not if the Vatican (pop. approx 800), Gibraltar, San Marino or Liechtenstein set their minds to it, and get their populations inoculated in a day, if not an afternoon.
I wonder how long it will take, say, India, which has 1.6 billion doses on order, and has a large vaccine manufacturing as well as distribution capability, to get at least half its population vaccinated.
I’ve heard that the Haredim are not so happy about vaccines. Perhaps because of the supposed effect on fertility?
Anyway, more power to them. I wish I could also believe in the magical properties of vaccines, but I don’t. Lockdowns and masks will likely continue for at least half of 2021. Happy New Year.
For male fertility, based on what we know about wild type virus infection testes morbidity, the odds are massively in favor of taking the vaccine, although that too should be tested, and is being checked out by one of the first researchers on this topic.

Because they don’t have the virus.
The UK seems to be going through another crisis as NHS staff test positive for covid. Trouble is even if you are still perfectly fit (a 23 year old described it as ‘like a bit of a hangover’) you can’t infect the patients.
Cardiff University Hospital put out a call last night for any med students with clinical experience (probably year 4 and above) to come and help in critical care.
For every med student who volunteered, probably 100 people retweeted it to the world in “OMG!!!!” mode. The tweet’s been removed.
“Israel is Inoculating 6 Times faster than the US.” I say, why so slow?……… Israel 2020 population is estimated at 8,655,535 people at mid-year according to UN data.
331,002,651 people in the United States 2020 Less we forget,US has Planes flying the meds, Isreal they can deliver meds by foot If necessary.
Define “significantly.” As of yet the claims about increased transmission of the U.K. mutation are from sketchy people and quite a distance from being proven, although there’s enough change the claims just might be true. Important for vaccines is that at least one of the sites on the spike protein that our bodies decide to latch onto is “conserved,” stuff that can’t significantly change or “the virus won’t virus.”

It’s a very badly described concerns about fertility, for the ex-Pfizer guy and his medical associate are not only are ignorant of the general state of the art of the better vaccines, see their first concern about antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE), they didn’t explain how the spike protein in vaccines is uniquely dangerous vs. an uncontrolled wild type virus infection. That requires insight from immunologists and I assume testing.

We have two things that (90% probability) came out of a lab in the last year and a half. Neither is "natural" and "natural" itself has never meant "good".
Get Xi's special, his virus attacks almost every cell in your body, hijacking their ribosome's to make complete copies of itself, which then go out and infect other cells, causing them to produce more virus, which attack more cells... A cascade of virus and destruction of cells only stopped by your immune system rallying--which it does pretty readily for most younger folks and less readily for older folks--leaving behind whatever destruction.
Get the white man's vaccine (not to dismiss a bunch of hard working Asians no doubt involved--thanks) and you'll have the ribosomes in some muscles cells hijacked to pump out the spike protein--and just the spike protein not a live virus--for a day or two causing your immune system to react and build spike protein attacking anti-bodies.
We've got guys here who laugh off as a trivial nothing something like the flu for a couple weeks (fairly common even among the healthy young) and the low risk of death ... then hyperventilate over vaccine reactions which are considerably more trivial and order of magnitude more rare. ("Oh my arm hurt and i had a fever for a day." I'll take it!)
I know lots of people aren't mathematical thinkers--see immigration--but even (generously) 1/10000 versus 1/100000 are very different things.Replies: @vhrm, @Je Suis Omar Mateen

As for the effect of the vaccine on fertility, male or female, right not it is "unknown". They are doing a study about it, but since they started just a few days ago the results will come a bit late it seems to me... :D
https://www.local10.com/news/local/2020/12/20/study-investigates-effects-of-covid-19-vaccine-on-male-fertility/
Is this supposed to be taken as evidence that these vaccines are indeed really safe in the long run? What if this turns out to be the opposite Exodus 12:13, e.g. “blood on the doorposts” tells Him where to cull?
A much better question would be to ask why the elites are so united behind this. The media owned by high finance (globalist) push it 24/7/365, and Bibi (Israel first) is the first to lock down his country (last September) and the first to vaccinate on TV (or pretend to).
To me there is only one answer: we are past peak oil, with a financial system completely bankrupt, and they are turning the screws to make sure the West is under their control, and they can de-populate it along with the decline in oil. My best guess is that most national elites are also along for this ride, by hook or by crook they understand the need to reduce the population.
So their depopulation strategy is somewhat selective.Replies: @diconezhardly, @J.Ross

Hmmm, I see one person so far has had an anaphylaxis reaction to the Moderna vaccine, has a severe shellfish allergy and used an epipen he carried for that to address it, then went to the hospital's emergency department and was treated and released.

Minnesota lawmakers, one of whom is a doctor: nearly half of Covid deaths may be something else.
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/coronavirus-death-certificates-minnesota-inflated
Changed the criteria for determining death, changed the definition of herd immunity, changed the rules for voting, changed the measurement of crime (it is now down even if murder and carjackings are up), changed the color of daylight so that now it looks like we are all drowning in blood because we are trapped inside the stomach of our overgrown over-aged and definitely dying ruling caste.
Official US covid death count of 330k lines up pretty well with 2020 excess death count over trend of about 400k.
Unzers believe so many conspiracy theories, elites must have a terrible time keeping track of all their conspiracies. Maybe there’s an app on Play Store for it?
Now this 330 and 400k does overstate how bad Covid is, because it is pulling forward deaths of the sick elderly that otherwise would have happened in 2021, not killing the young and healthy. So the second half of 2021 will likely have the lowest number of deaths in the USA in the past 20 years, and 2022 below trend as well.
The shift to WFH and lockdowns are also decreasing deaths from auto and other accidents of the young and healthy.Replies: @Getaclue
However, some of the examples in there are clearly the "bad" kind of coding:
car crash, drowning and alcohol poisoning? No. That said, even a 2x difference in deaths due to Covid doesn't fundamentally change our understanding of the disease.
It makes the lockdown response even more indefensible, but it's not like even the government figures of death excuse the level of infringement of, you know, free assembly and such. Yes, the courts say such temporary infringement is allowed in times of emergency, but their level of deference to the Executive branches is surprisingly high compared to their rulings against Trump on, DACA, temp terrorist country travel ban, etc. etc.
However, as i've mentioned before, various autocratic and semi-autocratic regimes operate under rather spurious "emergency laws" and "wartime powers" for decades. (e.g. Egypt)
Most of the writing on this stuff wrt Covid was from March and April. Then seems to have became ignored as people become inured to it. Which is one of the big dangers.

Possible devil’s advocate point: China has a billion and a quarter slaves earning Maseratis for a hundred million lucky ones on the coast. When you have that many people under a high tech prison planet regime, you could have tons legitimately with a virus, but move folks around and count them in such a way as to Xi the numbers, and not really be lying.
All that free American money makes it easy to buy vaccines for the population. I am assuming it is for the Jewish one only. Can you imagine what we could do with our money if we just kept it here?
Again, the aid is in the form of credits to purchase military equipment, and amounts to just north of 1% of the country's gross domestic income.
“Israel’s population is about 9 million.”
“Israel is signed up for 8 million doses of the Pfizer vaccine and 6 million of Moderna, enough for 7 million people.”
I sense a discrepancy.
It pays to be wary of anything coming from anywhere regarding COVID-19. There is an article in ABC News giving us ten reasons why we will have to wear masks and “take all precautions” even after the vaccine, including that, “The duration of vaccine immunity is unknown.” and that, “It is unclear whether vaccines prevent transmission of COVID-19.”
In other words, they are engaging in hyperbole about the enormous accomplishment ofn achieving a vaccine at “warp speed,” and at the same time telling us that it is a complete nothing burger because we don’t actually know if it does any good.
The duration is by definition unknown, as is the duration of natural immunity, seeing as how this is a new virus and thus new vaccines for it. But based on serological (blood) studies it looks like it's going to be plenty "durable." And it's not very practical to do a serious test of their ability to stop transmission in a normal Phase III trial, we again are depending on the serological studies which say both types of immune system reactions are like those we've seen with other viruses and vaccines for them where they do stop transmission.
But even then its no small good thing that Phase 1A healthcare workers aren't going get sick with COVID-19 and be off work perhaps when their hospital is in dire need of staff, and that the most vulnerable in our nursing homes are going to get some direct protection. Plenty of time to find answers to those two current unknowns.Replies: @BenKenobi, @Dumbo

It’s interesting to live through a manufactured mass hysteria. And, frankly, it’s boring – much like all mental illnesses are ultimately boring in the long run.
There’s a lot of disturbing material in the Gift, but one of the most disturbing points is the perverse ineffectiveness of the malignant public health bureaucracy. Anti-AIDS messages are hamstrung by a desire to sell drugs and a prerequisite that nothing be construed as criticizing any homosexual activity. At one point someone claims that most of the floats in the San Francisco pride parade are about AIDS and generally come from the numerous agencies which purport to treat it. As the panicdemic destroys our economy and locks lives down we might ask, exactly what would it take for the public to distrust public health experts? Evidence doesn’t matter here. A monstrous, backward track record is not enough to impugn them. The proliferation of tax (and charity) funded nothing-organizations is not seen as suspicious. Even when they can get past lyingpress and tech monopoly censorship, mainstream-credentialed dissenters cannot win over the dead end third of television-believers. The malignant public health bureaucracy is very good at making money and at shepherding whatever disease they watch to proliferation. They’re so bad at anything else that a little real journalism would be enough to attack them. So in other words they’re safe.

“ nearly half of Covid deaths may be something else”
Official US covid death count of 330k lines up pretty well with 2020 excess death count over trend of about 400k.
Unzers believe so many conspiracy theories, elites must have a terrible time keeping track of all their conspiracies. Maybe there’s an app on Play Store for it?
Now this 330 and 400k does overstate how bad Covid is, because it is pulling forward deaths of the sick elderly that otherwise would have happened in 2021, not killing the young and healthy. So the second half of 2021 will likely have the lowest number of deaths in the USA in the past 20 years, and 2022 below trend as well.
The shift to WFH and lockdowns are also decreasing deaths from auto and other accidents of the young and healthy.

Who cares when it’s the US tax payers’ money he’s buying it with, amirite?
American aid to Israel is in the form of credits to buy military equipment. It accounts for just north of 1% of Israels gross domestic income.
Total cost for subsidizing Israel from 1979 goes into 1980s dollars runs into trillions . . Israel in addition gets extra grants loans and subsidies . These loans are not paid ,has not been paid but simply been rolled over .
There is additional clause . Israel will be compensated for the interest that is due on the loan . Basically USA pays Israel to borrow and keep the money . ADL and AIPAC bragged about Israel not requiring any money anymore and that it can do without US aid.So what Schumer does when this idea gets some support for consideration in Congress by Rand Paul.? NYTimes reports that backdoor discussion has nipped it in the bud .What happens when JCOPA is announced ? Israel comes with begging g bowl and gets the latest technology and more grants .What happens when Obama asks for delaying the settlement ( mind that this is request not to engage into an illegal act for next few months ,not a demand to stop the illegal actions ) .Isreal gets 40 billions worth of aids in addition over next 10 years .
Let me tell you whats going to happen next. Biden seeks to reenter JCOPA.Israel will throw tantrums, make some forays into Gaza ,kill few more in checkpoints and kill some scientist while the bribed nasty human like Schumer and Memenedez will tell that Israel need more money ( see how it works- its not Israel now but its bribed delegates in USA ) Congress will oblige with another 50 billions .

The legislative solution introduced by representative Brad Schneider (D-IL) and supported by the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) is the "Guaranteeing Israel’s QME Act of 2020." The bill proposes amending the Arms Export Control Act by requiring the president to consult with the Israeli government before proceeding with any such sales. The president would then have to submit a report card to Congress on the degree to which Israel’s "Qualitative Military Edge" might be impacted. The AECA was already amended in 2008 and 2012 to require certifications that any sales would not "adversely affect" Israel’s military edge. https://original.antiwar.com/smith-grant/2020/11/09/the-israel-lobbys-qme-scam/ 3Analytical output from pro-Israel think tanks such as the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD) outline even additional solutions beyond the Schneider bill – by showering more "free" US weapons on Israel and more US taxpayer money for Israel to purchase Israeli weapons systems https://schneider.house.gov/sites/schneider.house.gov/files/QME%20Bill.pdf4 This is the worst betrayal of what known as sovereignty and diplomacy.https://thehill.com/policy/defense/525302-senate-wants-security-guarantees-for-israel-before-us-sale-of-f-35s-to-uae Rep.

Can't believe the Chosen People are jabbing themselves with mRNA vaccines that turn you into
a GMO human and cause cytokine reactions. Show your sources Stevei.Replies: @That Would Be Telling
That can’t be known yet based on the late start of Sputnik’s V Phase III trial, they did their big announcement and boasting a month before starting that minor detail. Moderna effectively started their’s 3 months before (the FDA forced a month’s delay, officially because they weren’t recruiting enough diversity), Pfizer/BioNTech’s blended Phase 1/2/3 trial finished ten days before Moderna’s. In both cases, the gating factor was two months of safety data from half their participants who’d gotten the vaccine.
You shouldn’t believe it, because that’s a lie.
You’re mixing up buzzwords, it’s anaphylaxis reactions, and so far with one exception below only reported with the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine. And a substantial fraction of the US cases I know about are people who were already susceptible to anaphylaxis, who after the first two NHS cases shouldn’t have taken this vaccine later in the US.
Hmmm, I see one person so far has had an anaphylaxis reaction to the Moderna vaccine, has a severe shellfish allergy and used an epipen he carried for that to address it, then went to the hospital’s emergency department and was treated and released. Note there’s guaranteed to be some of this with any vaccine or drug or food as far as I know, the question is at what rate.
I am kind of surprised that either mRNA vaccine caused anaphylaxis. How much protein is there in either vaccine? Other components of protein therapeutics are limited to parts per million, if I recall correctly. I would have assumed that nucleic acid products would be similarly pure. Come to think of it, the mRNA vaccines may not even be biologics. Are they made by in vitro transcription?
Finally, would people who went into anaphylaxis have had the same reaction to the virus, or are they reacting to a contaminant or the cat ionic lipid coat, or what?Replies: @That Would Be Telling

This was obvious since last March just based on the CDC’s special COVID guidelines, and has been obvious from the CDC’s own statistics for many months now.
There is not a single statistic about this pandemic that isn’t bulls**t. The case numbers are fake. The hospitalization numbers are fake. And the numbers of deaths are fake.
In other words, they are engaging in hyperbole about the enormous accomplishment ofn achieving a vaccine at "warp speed," and at the same time telling us that it is a complete nothing burger because we don't actually know if it does any good.Replies: @That Would Be Telling
I’m impressed, you quote us two clear and correct statements, then lie about what they say, and expect us to believe you, not the statements??
The duration is by definition unknown, as is the duration of natural immunity, seeing as how this is a new virus and thus new vaccines for it. But based on serological (blood) studies it looks like it’s going to be plenty “durable.” And it’s not very practical to do a serious test of their ability to stop transmission in a normal Phase III trial, we again are depending on the serological studies which say both types of immune system reactions are like those we’ve seen with other viruses and vaccines for them where they do stop transmission.
But even then its no small good thing that Phase 1A healthcare workers aren’t going get sick with COVID-19 and be off work perhaps when their hospital is in dire need of staff, and that the most vulnerable in our nursing homes are going to get some direct protection. Plenty of time to find answers to those two current unknowns.
Fact is, people are being forced to take a vaccine that may not prevent transmission and may need to be repeated every six months to have any effect, for a disease that only kills 0.04% of people infected and most of them over 80 years old.
And for that, people are still forced by authoritarian governments to stay in their homes and use stupid masks.Replies: @Jack D, @AnotherDad, @Je Suis Omar Mateen, @That Would Be Telling

Enough.
We have two things that (90% probability) came out of a lab in the last year and a half. Neither is "natural" and "natural" itself has never meant "good".
Get Xi's special, his virus attacks almost every cell in your body, hijacking their ribosome's to make complete copies of itself, which then go out and infect other cells, causing them to produce more virus, which attack more cells... A cascade of virus and destruction of cells only stopped by your immune system rallying--which it does pretty readily for most younger folks and less readily for older folks--leaving behind whatever destruction.
Get the white man's vaccine (not to dismiss a bunch of hard working Asians no doubt involved--thanks) and you'll have the ribosomes in some muscles cells hijacked to pump out the spike protein--and just the spike protein not a live virus--for a day or two causing your immune system to react and build spike protein attacking anti-bodies.
We've got guys here who laugh off as a trivial nothing something like the flu for a couple weeks (fairly common even among the healthy young) and the low risk of death ... then hyperventilate over vaccine reactions which are considerably more trivial and order of magnitude more rare. ("Oh my arm hurt and i had a fever for a day." I'll take it!)

The adverse reactions to the fake vax are feature, not bug. People like to feel they earned their imaginary immunity to an imaginary illness, and what better way to earn it than a few days of mild illness. No pain no gain, amirite.
I said since the early days of CoronaHoax that I’d take a fake vax if it would placate the bedwetting facediaperists (Sailer, Unz, et al) and allow a return to normal. Covidiots have made clear that fake vax still means facediapering and lockdowns forever, though, so men with functioning brains and balls have zero incentive to take the fake vax.

In Chicago more people in their twenties vaccinated than people over the age of 55. Truly hard to understand why so many people under the age of 30 are being vaccinated while so few over the age of 65 are being vaccinated.Replies: @Mark G., @Mike Tre
The elderly are much more likely to die from this so if you vaccinate them first there might be a big drop in deaths. This will lead to a decrease in fear levels for the population in general and they may then decide not to get vaccinated. There will also be less pressure to make the vaccine mandatory for everyone. The companies who developed the vaccine may not want a situation developing where there is a rapid drop in demand for their vaccine, possibly even to the point where unsold doses are sitting in their warehouses.
Politicians have also used this epidemic to have the power turned over to them to decide who should benefit and who should have to sacrifice during this epidemic. The problem here is that if you give government leaders this power they may someday use it to sacrifice you for the benefit of them and their family and friends. Most government leaders are not selfless individuals concerned only for the common good. To gain more power, they may have exaggerated the danger of this virus to the average person while also making it worse than it needed to be by blocking or belittling simple and inexpensive methods that would have dropped the death totals like common nutritional supplements or HCQ or, now, the misallocation of a vaccine that will quickly end the epidemic if given to the right groups.
BUT, almost by accident, they do make a few valid points. One is that perhaps we should be looking at quality of life years lost and not just deaths, so even though the 90 year old is say 4x more likely to die from the 'rona vs. say an average 70 year old, the 70 year old might have 5x the number of quality of life years remaining and so may be more deserving. 2nd, someone mentions that it is common not to treat pneumonia, even with antibiotics, for really far gone Alzheimer's patient - in our society we don't euthanize such people like dogs the way they do in some places but neither is it right to prolong their suffering when a merciful God wants to call them to their rest. So vaccinating such people would be equally wrong. And lastly one mentions that if the vaccine went to the highest risk group first, there would have been a lot of anti-vax stories about how my grandma got the vaccine last week and then she died 3 days later. By giving it to a relatively healthy group of doctor, nurses and other health care workers, there are going to be fewer "grandma died from the vaccine " stories.

Well, although some Israeli Jewish do-gooders protest, I don’t see an issue here. Citizens of Israel will be inoculated. Arabs make up 20% of Israeli citizens; Israeli Jewish settlers in West Bank are also Israeli citizens. They will be vaccinated equally.
Arabs in Gaza & West Bank are not Israeli citizens. They have their own separate health system, school system etc. Putting aside the fact that Arabs in those lands are in the state of permanent warfare with Israel (and all Jews), Israel has no legal obligation to get vaccine & inoculate them. One should not confuse Israeli Arabs (20% of Israel’s population) with Palestinians in those two territories.
My opinion: if they tried, they would be accused again of interfering with Palestinian suzerainty & people, or trying to diminish the Palestinian authority or Hamas controlled Gaza. Palestinians are a more intelligent, organized & dangerous American blacks. Whatever you do or don’t, you’re guilty.

The interstellar hysteria as hyped by the Globalist owned Mainslime Media was intended to do what it has done — destroy economies to set up The Great Reset of the NWO Banksters — with a plague of NWO “medical” experts/Faucis seeded in at every level (in Government etc. also) this was easy to accomplish and on cue they all went to work having “gamed” it previously with the Gates Foundation and Rockefeller Foundation — along with Neal Ferguson “Models” and propaganda that would embarrass Goebbels — the fact people so glibly lie about all of this in superior tones is pathetic.: https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/12/330000-americans-die-china-coronavirus-closer-20000-died-china-coronavirus/
I had Bird Flu or whatever the ChiComs let out in 2007 — had it for like 3 months could not get rid of it – – it was terrible, many thousands died I do believe — no one cared. It was not politicized/weaponized as part of a Globalist NWO Great Reset and Gates Foundation and Rockefeller Foundation hadn’t “gamed” and “planned” it yet as to how to weaponize it nor set up Faucis and Neal Fergusons to do their bit at various levels where they have seeded in thousands of these NWO “Expert” lackeys to bring in Medical Martial Law on us….Sucks to be sick but to allow a group of super rich networked psychopaths to destroy the world and enslave us over it? Get well soon….
The globalists are neoliberals who did not want to restrict travel or impose quarantines either now or then because freedom and growth, you know, so in 2009 under Tom Frieden the US CDC and Obama admin decided against quarantining people returning from Mexico where it had first broken out and let swine flu lose on the world after Mexico had tried to contain it (they used masks, too). Swine flu spared the elderly risks group because they had some immunity from strains that had circulated in their youth, that's why the mortality numbers und the intensive care numbers didn't rise as high. They planned to do nothing about Covid, too, but were forced by Bergamo that showed how an unmitigated outbreak would look like in a country with lots of elderly.
This was not planned, although special interest groups are clearly using it to their advantage.

FWIW, there is no real time reporting system for covid vaccine inoculations. It goes through State public health reporting systems, that can be slow.
So far the states have gotten 9 million doses and have done what they have done. I personally know two health workers that have gotten shots.
There is no reason the states can’t roll this out quickly. But we don’t exactly know.

Palestine has a government with a President – he’s even named in the Arab News story. The Palestinian government is supposed to be in charge of basic municipal functions such as health care in Palestinian controlled areas. They begged and fought for autonomy and they got it. No Israelis at all go into Gaza. So now that they have autonomy they whine that the Israelis aren’t taking care of them. They sound like teenagers. Maybe their rich Arab friends can pitch in and donate the funds to buy the vaccine for them and Iran can buy it for their Hamas buddies. Although the Pali leaders will probably just steal the $ – that’s how it usually works. Arafat supposedly was worth a billion $, all stolen.
In Israel proper, all Israeli citizens, including its millions of Arab citizens, will get the vaccine from their government.
The duration is by definition unknown, as is the duration of natural immunity, seeing as how this is a new virus and thus new vaccines for it. But based on serological (blood) studies it looks like it's going to be plenty "durable." And it's not very practical to do a serious test of their ability to stop transmission in a normal Phase III trial, we again are depending on the serological studies which say both types of immune system reactions are like those we've seen with other viruses and vaccines for them where they do stop transmission.
But even then its no small good thing that Phase 1A healthcare workers aren't going get sick with COVID-19 and be off work perhaps when their hospital is in dire need of staff, and that the most vulnerable in our nursing homes are going to get some direct protection. Plenty of time to find answers to those two current unknowns.Replies: @BenKenobi, @Dumbo
Please tell us, how much are you getting from Pfizer. It’s not possible that someone is voluntarily so keen on defending vaccines in almost every single one of his posts. This goes beyond a mere mania.
Fact is, people are being forced to take a vaccine that may not prevent transmission and may need to be repeated every six months to have any effect, for a disease that only kills 0.04% of people infected and most of them over 80 years old.
And for that, people are still forced by authoritarian governments to stay in their homes and use stupid masks.
-- a reasonable estimate for the IFR is probably an order of magnitude higher--0.4%, 0.5% something like that. We've known this since the Diamond Princess came back with the first decent bounded sample set. (IFR 2% on a very elderly skewing population, that translates to something like 0.5% on a US style population distribution.) Nothing since has changed that estimate. (You're most over 80 perhaps an overstatement. But fortunately, you're right this really is overwhelmingly a geezer killer and doesn't pose much risk of death to normal healthy young folks--working, making babies, raising kids.)
-- if the vaccine crushes infection it will crush transmission as well. It may not completely "prevent" it but it will crush it so much it might as well.
Finally, people take vaccines for the fricking flu. Because getting the flu can be very unpleasant and cutting the circulation minimizes the number of folks getting that unpleasantness, including those highly vulnerable--newborns and the very old.
This vaccine (mRNA variants) is even better than most. No live virus. No self-replication. Not even a dead virus.

In the NY Times there is a panel discussion of “ethics experts” led by Emily Bazelon on who should get the vaccine. Mostly it is a Leftist clown show with various Peoples of Color trying to outflank each other from the Left – one says people of color in the US should get it first. Then another chimes in and says, no the people of the Global South should get it first. Etc.

BUT, almost by accident, they do make a few valid points. One is that perhaps we should be looking at quality of life years lost and not just deaths, so even though the 90 year old is say 4x more likely to die from the ‘rona vs. say an average 70 year old, the 70 year old might have 5x the number of quality of life years remaining and so may be more deserving.
2nd, someone mentions that it is common not to treat pneumonia, even with antibiotics, for really far gone Alzheimer’s patient – in our society we don’t euthanize such people like dogs the way they do in some places but neither is it right to prolong their suffering when a merciful God wants to call them to their rest. So vaccinating such people would be equally wrong.
And lastly one mentions that if the vaccine went to the highest risk group first, there would have been a lot of anti-vax stories about how my grandma got the vaccine last week and then she died 3 days later. By giving it to a relatively healthy group of doctor, nurses and other health care workers, there are going to be fewer “grandma died from the vaccine ” stories.

Please show your math. Official sources say that the US has had around 20 million cases with 340,000 dead so a fatality rate of 1.7%. or 40x your number. If there are 340,000 dead and the death rate is only .04% that means that 850 million out of the 350 million people in US have had it. At .04% we would have hit herd immunity somewhere around 100,000 deaths but that doesn’t seem to have happened at all. So I suspect that your .04% number is not just wrong but WAY wrong. Insanely wrong. Of course if you start with such flawed data you are going to reach incorrect conclusions.

If there are travel restrictions they will be imposed by places (e.g. Australia) that have almost conquered covid and don’t want people bring in fresh infections to restart it.

I am kind of surprised that either mRNA vaccine caused anaphylaxis. How much protein is there in either vaccine? Other components of protein therapeutics are limited to parts per million, if I recall correctly. I would have assumed that nucleic acid products would be similarly pure. Come to think of it, the mRNA vaccines may not even be biologics. Are they made by in vitro transcription?
Finally, would people who went into anaphylaxis have had the same reaction to the virus, or are they reacting to a contaminant or the cat ionic lipid coat, or what?

Too late to prevent, but keep on your C, D and especially your zinc and a zinc ionophore (i've been taking quercetin). Keep up your humidity (although the main benefit there is prevention). And your fluids. And just power on through. The folks near my age have been between "normal cold" and getting their ass kicked with really bad flu for a few weeks.

Would you ask your daughter’s bf if he lost his sense of ‘taste’, or if he lost his actual sense of taste: sweet, salty, bitter, sour, and umami? As we all know, most ‘tastes’ are actually smells. The are just perceived differently. Very hard to believe, but scientists swear up and down that it’s true. On the other hand, they used to tell us that different tastes were perceived on different areas of the tongue, sweet in front, etc. Nope, all sorts of taste buds are everywhere on the tongue.
I once worked with a Cuban guy who wore so much cologne that I could taste it whenever I talked to him face to face. Ever since I have wondered if the cologned air ended up in my mouth, so I tasted it, or whether any sufficiently strong odor is perceived as taste.
I’m very interested in whether corona-Chan kills taste bud tastes.

There is talk that if you can prove that you have had the vaccine then they won't require you to stay in quarantine. So the vaccine is really a benefit, saving people who wish/need to travel to Australia two weeks and thousand of $. But if you don't want to take it and would rather spend two weeks locked up, you could do that too - vaccination is probably going to be an alternative to quarantine, not a replacement for it, at least at first.
But the main thing is that Australia is a sovereign state and they can impose whatever conditions they want for people to come into their country. It's not unusual for countries to require certain vaccinations as a condition of granting a visa. And there are a lot of countries that choose to balance public health vs. individual freedom differently than we do in the US so it would not surprise me if some places do eventually make the vaccine mandatory for their citizens just as some states in the US require (with various loopholes) children to have certain vaccinations in order to attend school. There's an old saying that your freedom to swing your fist ends where another person's nose begins.

There’s another old saying about a camel’s nose and a tent… People already accepted lockdowns and masks as part of life and things that supposedly “liberal” Western governments can mandate at will.
So they will readily accept forced vaccinations in order to be able to travel or go to a concert or work. And later they will accept a microchip inserted up their rectum.

From my point of view, refusing the vaccine has exactly zero effect on other people, as I think this “pandemic” is mostly a lie.

Large swaths of Africa and Asia are relatively unaffected (compared to West); so they may already have some immunity due to other reasons. Also, sufficiently large fraction of Westerners would remain unvaccinated for a number of reasons that virus will have no problem continuing mutations.
End result will be similar to what we have now with influenza and common cold. Fewer people will die and we will learn to live with it. It already kills only 2% of the infected (400,000 out of 20+ millions ).

That’s an interesting article. I assumed (and continue to) that there’s a lot of cases where there’s gray area. e.g. that someone with heart or lung problems was pushed over the edge by Covid. That one is going to be inherently a judgement call of how much Covid contributed to the death etc. (and really we should develop more robust statistical models to be able to attribute death probabilistically anyway, covid or not. i.e. person X died of 30% heart-disease; 30% old age; 40% flu)
However, some of the examples in there are clearly the “bad” kind of coding:
car crash, drowning and alcohol poisoning? No. That said, even a 2x difference in deaths due to Covid doesn’t fundamentally change our understanding of the disease.
It makes the lockdown response even more indefensible, but it’s not like even the government figures of death excuse the level of infringement of, you know, free assembly and such. Yes, the courts say such temporary infringement is allowed in times of emergency, but their level of deference to the Executive branches is surprisingly high compared to their rulings against Trump on, DACA, temp terrorist country travel ban, etc. etc.
However, as i’ve mentioned before, various autocratic and semi-autocratic regimes operate under rather spurious “emergency laws” and “wartime powers” for decades. (e.g. Egypt)
Most of the writing on this stuff wrt Covid was from March and April. Then seems to have became ignored as people become inured to it. Which is one of the big dangers.

“So much lying as to CVirus — the CDC has admitted that only 6% of the 330,000 actually died of the CVirus as opposed to dying “with” it in a car crash, suicide, cancer etc.”
So if you admit that 330,000 actually died, it’s pretty weird that such an anomalous number should be dying right about now from all those car crashes and cancer diagnoses, not to mention the fact that the overwhelming majority of those deaths involved conditions such as respiratory failure, cytokine storms, etc. You really want to pretend those were all motorcycle accidents? That’s the hill you’re going to die on?
And by the way, how many of those dying of AIDS actually died ‘of’ HIV as opposed to dying ‘with’ it? I suspect it’s a lot lower than 6%. That doesn’t mean AIDS is imaginary, or that we should be cavalier about letting HIV get into the blood supply.
In other words, if the lies you’re peddling are supposed to be an improvement on what the CDC is feeding us, they need work

Naturally, Jews living in these areas are eligible for the vaccine.

Meanwhile Israel will work to torpedo it again despite getting money second times because it hopes to reenact the situation in 3-4 years by forcing the withdrawal from the treaty (negotiation ) and letting USA enter again in 4-5 years as long as USA forks out money to that little shitty country .

The legislative solution introduced by representative Brad Schneider (D-IL) and supported by the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) is the “Guaranteeing Israel’s QME Act of 2020.” The bill proposes amending the Arms Export Control Act by requiring the president to consult with the Israeli government before proceeding with any such sales. The president would then have to submit a report card to Congress on the degree to which Israel’s “Qualitative Military Edge” might be impacted. The AECA was already amended in 2008 and 2012 to require certifications that any sales would not “adversely affect” Israel’s military edge. https://original.antiwar.com/smith-grant/2020/11/09/the-israel-lobbys-qme-scam/

The globalists are neoliberals who did not want to restrict travel or impose quarantines either now or then because freedom and growth, you know, so in 2009 under Tom Frieden the US CDC and Obama admin decided against quarantining people returning from Mexico where it had first broken out and let swine flu lose on the world after Mexico had tried to contain it (they used masks, too). Swine flu spared the elderly risks group because they had some immunity from strains that had circulated in their youth, that’s why the mortality numbers und the intensive care numbers didn’t rise as high.

Despite some early smart policies (like using the army to close the Haredi Jews’ infected cities), Israel was in the end an incompetent disaster in terms of containing the pandemic’s spread in the population, and Israel now has thousands of people killed by the virus.
On the other hand, in Israel there is demonstration of high state capacity in this fast rollout of a refrigerated Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine.
Approval of Israel’s own domestically produced vaccine was slowed over the summer through over heavy regulation ( https://en.globes.co.il/en/article-israel-covid19-vaccine-head-we-lack-support-1001351425 ), but the government reportedly negotiated rapidly to purchase millions of doses from different international manufacturers.
In the case of Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, Israel was one of the first to buy it, and is paying almost double price per dose ($30 for a dose). This showed that the authorities were planning effectively, and understood that the importance of speed.

Public healthcare in Israel is probably almost reaching the level of developed countries, and the ability to fast rollout vaccine which requires cold-storage seems to be an example.
At the same time, the atmosphere in the vaccination rollout in Israel, can appear like an extroverted third world banana republic country. Video of the vaccine rollout me think of the characteristic ambiguity in Israel – tropical atmosphere of third world brown country, yet apparently competent strategy of fast vaccination.

Why does Israel already have the necessary number of doses to vaccinate its entire population? Didn’t the Israeli medical ethicist, Zeke Emanuel, tell us that we needed to share our doses with the Third World first?
Perhaps the notorious traitor Jon Pollard carried a bunch of doses over when he was repatriated to Israel: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/jonathan-pollard-released-free-landed-israel-spy-with-wife/
Private flight paid for by ol’ Sheldon Adelson, Pollard kissed the ground upon arrival in Israel, and he was greeted in person by Netanyahu. Bad optics for anyone paying attention.
Pollard should have suffered a lot more, IMHO.
So, you want to go on the record recognizing Israeli sovereignty over Holy Balestine?
Hmm, this is the only thing making me think the vaccines are useful for those under 65. So far our betters harp on masks, no travel, no restaurants, etc. but never bothered to follow it themselves. Like them or hate them, the Israelis are deadly serious when it comes to survival. Maybe it’s just panic, but it is a “walk the walk” moment to consider.
But collectively the story is quite different. Look at the last page of this LA County "Dashboard", and see how the 18-49 age cohort was solidly above 35% of all hospitalizations May-October, and generally above 40%. As burdens on the healthcare system, and people who transmit COVID-19 to those who end up getting maimed or killed, younger folk are very significant. As vaccine supplies become plentiful next year, it's going to be interesting to see how various societies and polities deal with people who insist they have a right to maim and kill others by transmitting COVID-19 to them. Herd immunity is after all needed for the 5% or more who can't gain protection from a vaccine.
Even if they’re pretty old, including having some comorbidities, the raw odds of any single person dying from it are low, although practically no one is considering morbidity in those who survive, which we know is non-trivial in both effects and numbers. So our betters know they personally aren’t at much risk, and I would guess a lot of them get a kick out of doing things they’ve forbidden to the whites, members of the middle class, etc. who are under them.

except it doesn’t. our whole foreign policy is based around jewish interests. the in kind benefit of that is gogorillion dollars.
and the nonsense about israel having to buy from the US is complete horseshit. If giving people money to buy our stuff is good for the US, why don’t we expand that policy to every country on earth? “hey mexico, here’s a trillion to buy us made cars, big nose tribe explained this benefits the US so it must be true”
