My presence on social media is fairly limited when it comes to numbers, and I say that because two women I follow (a podcaster and a poet) have discussed changes in their menstrual cycles from the emergency authorized Big Pharma products circulating.
I’ll stick with the poet’s twitter feed (and some replies) because her experiences were put out there to read, starting with this:
And here are some replies:
A few weeks later, this tweet and reply:
All these comments are from people who have actually taken the vaccine. I say that because the podcaster I mentioned has NOT received a vaccine, but has suspicions, which are being discussed widely right now in the media I follow, that these jabs could be transmissible.
That probably sounds crazy and I really hope it IS a bonkers idea with no basis in reality. Except that it DOES have a basis in reality:
Transmissible vaccines may provide a promising solution for improving the control of infectious disease, particularly zoonotic pathogens with wildlife reservoirs. Although it is well known that heterogeneity in pathogen transmission impacts the spread of infectious disease, the effects of heterogeneity on vaccine transmission are largely unknown. Here we develop and analyze a mathematical model that quantifies the potential benefits of a transmissible vaccine in a population where transmission is heterogeneous between two subgroups.
Why does it feel like mad scientists have been given carte blanche to experiment on us in real time?

The CDC claims that smoking is responsible for 480,000 yearly deaths, including 25,000 from secondhand smoke.
Yet, the government has never forced anyone to stop smoking.
So then, why are you forced to wear a mask?
Still think all this is about saving lives?
Big Swede, your argument is non sequitur. Moreover, government has implemented far, far, FAR more coercive measures to incentivize discontinuation of tobacco smoking, than have been employed to encourage wearing of protective masks! And in both cases, NOT ONE PERSON has been “forced” to do anything. It has been made inconvenient or impossible to do certain things unless masked, but the rack and screw do not await you if you selfishly insist on a non-existent “right” to endanger the health of others by either smoking, or going maskless, in others’ breathing space.
Have you put as much time into studying plagues and pandemics throughout human history, as you have ruminating on massive occult evil perpetrating a malevolent conspiratorial crime against humanity cloaked by the veil of a concocted public health crisis?
Science matters. And it doesn’t give a shit what you believe!
I agree that science matters and await the peer-reviewed studies that show asymptomatic spread among children justifies my kids wearing masks outside at recess.
as for the rest, there are HIPPA privacy laws that prevent individuals from going into why they are unable to mask-up like the rest of the caring people who have avoided politicizing this and rely solely on the science.
Kev, if you could gasps the government’s motivation of outlawing the manufacture and sale of menthol tobacco products versus banning all nicotine products, saving a half million lives, you’d discover their true agenda.
Who is “they?” It’s a simple matter to ban menthol cigarettes, which are worse for public health than non-menthol cigarettes. Banning all nicotine-based products, on the other hand, would be a collosal failure (as is most addictive drug prohibition). In the late 80s/early 90s, Health Canada embarked on a major anti-smoking campaign, beginning with cigarettes. (More than once, my serious nicotine addiction was re-activated after months of abstinence, by puffing a Canadian filterless Player’s Navy Cut, the ones that produce thick, bluish smoke upon exhalation, or another Canadian brand). Cigarette boxes had to feature gruesome, full-color photographs of such things as dissected, cancer-ridden, black-gritty-exteriored lungs, etc. OK, so far, so good…a publicly-funded health care system, in contrast to a private one, has a major incentive to emphasize preventative medicine in order to reduce costs, rater than maximizing profits of drug manufacturers.
Next, a series of tax increases was imposed on all tobacco product sales. Over a span of a few months, a 20-cigarette box went from ~ $2/box to over $7/box. Yanks on vacation could make some kit bringing in their allotted two cartons (preferably Marlboro reds) and lighting up on the deck of a ferry or other public place. Canadian nicotine addicts would provide a return more than double one’s investment.
Tobacco does not grow well in Canada’s fertile oceans of wheat. So the average Canadian addict, for financial reasons, became dependent on black market cigs from the U.S.
As one could predict, cigarette smuggling from the U.S. into Canada became a big deal. The Great Lakes became a transit route for this. Lake Ontario became a smuggling pathway for enterprising Americans who invested in high speed (and appropriately named) cigarette boats, and a group of buddies with AK-47s, a half-dozen speed boats and obligatory black turtle necks and watch caps could make more that A MILLION BUCKS A MONTH making bi-weekly nocturnal runs to the other shore with boatloads of cartons of Marlboro reds. RCMP awaited one such run but fled when they yelled “freeze” and found themselves confronted by dozens of automatic assault rifles. Eventually, the FBI busted the most prolific smugglers but the damage to Canada’s well-intentioned anti-tobacco strategy (and disastrous drop in healthcare-supporting taxes) had been done. Price increases were rolled back significantly (but not completely) and Canadian cigarette sales grew (but never fully recovered). Within a couple of years, American cigarettes retailed for as much as Canadian, and the incentives to smuggle, already diminished, vanished altogether.
It has proved much more effective in reducing smoking than simply jacking up price, to make indulgence in the vice increasingly difficult during employment hours and in public. Outright prohibition would, for the same reasons as the Health Canada regime that flopped 35 years ago, be a collosal failure and would fuel a growth spurt in organized crime.
Nearly half of Americans smoked in the late 50s/early 60s.
The social stigma/age restriction/inconvenience/tax combination approach has produced dramatic results. Per CDC:
“…Cigarette smoking remains the leading cause of preventable disease, disability, and death in the United States, accounting for more than 480,000 deaths every year, or about 1 in 5 deaths.
“In 2019, nearly 14 of every 100 U.S. adults aged 18 years or older (14.0%) currently smoked cigarettes. This means an estimated 34.1 million adults in the United States currently smoke cigarettes. More than 16 million Americans live with a smoking-related disease.
“Current smoking has declined from 20.9% (nearly 21 of every 100 adults) in 2005 to 14.0% (14 of every 100 adults) in 2019, and the proportion of ever smokers who have quit has increased.”
I’d love to pontificate about vaping but my reply to Big Swede’s Comment distorting truth re the Salk Institute research was lost when my smartphone glitched, and I want to write it again; also, I’ve yet to address ‘transmissible vaccines.” I’m burned out for now. So I’ll end this reply here. The points of it are simply that prohibition is usually the worst method of reducing harm from drug addiction, and that the “true agenda” of both tobacco companies and big Pharma when it comes to nicotine products and non-smoke-producing, highly potent nicotine delivery devices initially marketed as “smoking cessation aids,” is just to produce obscene profits by marketing highly addictive products.
From The Salk Institute.
An explosive new study by researchers at the prestigious Salk Institute casts doubt on the current crop of gene-based vaccines that may pose a grave risk to public health. The article, which is titled “The novel coronavirus’ spike protein plays additional key role in illness”, shows that SARS-CoV-2’s “distinctive ‘spike’ protein”..”damages cells, confirming COVID-19 as a primarily vascular disease.” While the paper focuses strictly on Covid-related issues, it unavoidably raises questions about the new vaccines that contain billions of spike proteins that could greatly increase the chances of severe illness or death. Here’s an excerpt from the article dated April 30, 2021:
“In the new study, the researchers created a “pseudovirus” that was surrounded by SARS-CoV-2 classic crown of spike proteins, but did not contain any actual virus. Exposure to this pseudovirus resulted in damage to the lungs and arteries of an animal model—proving that the spike protein alone was enough to cause disease. Tissue samples showed inflammation in endothelial cells lining the pulmonary artery walls. (Note– “Vascular endothelial cells line the entire circulatory system, from the heart to the smallest capillaries.”)
The team then replicated this process in the lab, exposing healthy endothelial cells (which line arteries) to the spike protein. They showed that the spike protein damaged the cells by binding ACE2. This binding disrupted ACE2’s molecular signaling to mitochondria (organelles that generate energy for cells), causing the mitochondria to become damaged and fragmented.
Previous studies have shown a similar effect when cells were exposed to the SARS-CoV-2 virus, but this is the first study to show that the damage occurs when cells are exposed to the spike protein on its own.” (“The novel coronavirus’ spike protein plays additional key role in illness”, Salk.edu)
The new research paper is the equivalent of a hydrogen bomb. It changes everything by confirming what vaccine critics have been theorizing for months but were unable to prove.
Now there is solid evidence that:
Covid-19 is primarily a disease of the vascular system (The vascular system, also called the circulatory system, is made up of the vessels that carry blood and lymph through the body.) and not the respiratory system.
The main culprit is the spike protein. (Spike protein–“a glycoprotein that protrudes from the envelope of some viruses” Merriam-Webster “Like a key in a lock, these spike proteins fuse to receptors on the surface of cells, allowing the virus’s genetic code to invade the host cell, take over its machinery and replicate.” Bruce Lieberman)
Truth hurts.

Big Swede, you’re in way over your head here, and your argument is a collection of false claims, erroneous conclusions, distortions of fact, invalid syllogisms and pseudoscience.
First, you begin by introducing your featured excerpt with “From the Salk Institute.” But it is NOT from the Salk Institute (though it cherry picks a snippet from the Institute’s press release). It is from a secondary source you don’t identify, that is not a peer-review, reliable, bona fide scientific journal, but a web site or other locus with a cultural/political agenda it promotes by propagating disinformation, misinformation, half-truths and fallacious reasoning. That secondary source is spinning the findings of the Salk Institute (“SI”) beyond recognition.
Second, the excerpt admits early on that the referenced Salk Institute research has NOTHING whatsoever to do with COVID-19 vaccines. It then erroneously asserts that nonetheless, the research findings “inevitably” raise the specter of those vaccines being dangerous.
Particularly ludicrous is the altogether unsupportable statement:
“The new research paper is the equivalent of a hydrogen bomb. It changes everything by confirming what vaccine critics have been theorizing for months but were unable to prove.”
HA! Bullshit! How so? As the journal article and the Salk Institute’s press release about it clearly say, it has long been known that the SARS-CoV-2 virus gains entry to cells via its glycoproteinous “spikes” binding to cell surface ACE II (“S”) receptors. If you had, in the last year, read anything authoritative, or taken even a small amount of time following the research and actually learning something about virology cellular microbiology and immunology prior to going off half-cocked in furtherance of your cultural/political agenda, you would realize that it is also nothing new, that COVID-19 is a “circulatory disease.” It is also a neurological disease. It is also a gastro-intestinal disease. It affects multiple organ systems.
Pedantic arguments over whether COVID-19 is “primarily” a respiratory disease or a circulatory disease are of little or no substantive value. But on the non-pedantic side of the tracks, on the treatment front, the findings should direct increased focus on interdicting intracellular processes in infected vascular cells resulting from the glycoproteinous spikes.
It so happens that respiratory tract vascular endothelial cells have the highest prevalence of S-receptors. The manner of introduction of the SARS-CoV-2 virus into the cell commences with spike/S-receptor affinity on the surface of respiratory tract endothelial cells. The microvasculature of that endothelium is rich in S-receptors. It has been known for decades that blocking S-receptors (or interrupting conversion of ACE I to ACE II) inhibits vasoconstriction, thereby contributing to control of hypertension.
What SI researchers did here, was to confirm that, and to unravel the precise microphysiology by which, spike glycoproteins not only utilize cellular mitochondria for viral replication, but in that process additionally inflict mitochondrial and other damage to the infected cell.
Of course, even if that were not so, the cell would lyse (rupture and die) from the replicated clones accumulating in the cytoplasm.
The SI research certainly does NOT prove or stand for the proposition that COVID-19 is not transmitted via inhalation of exhaled respiratory droplets laden with virus.
Nor does this research in any way establish that the mechanism of action of the mRNA vaccines is dangerous. If that were so, then deaths from circulatory pathology such as myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, and thrombosis would be occurring by the millions in mRNA vaccine recipients. Not only is this not the case, but the vast majority of COVID-19 deaths are due to respiratory failure after the lung’s alveoli fill, rupture and consolidate when they fill with blood and pus.
The mRNA vaccines work by SARS-CoV-2 messenger RNA coded for the virus’s spike protein, being coated with lipid and injected into deltoid muscle. The lipid coating enables the mRNA to slip into muscle cells. The mRNA, which does not enter the muscle cell nucleus, then works with cellular components to synthesize the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. The mRNA then degrades, is shunted into cellular waste vacuoles, and its harmless remnants are expelled into the bloodstream and excreted in human waste. The synthesized spike protein is expelled from the muscle cell, to the cell surface. The innate immune system, and then the adaptive immune system, respond to the spike proteins, latching onto them with antibodies specific to their molecular structure. The antibody-spike protein complexes — which are inert — are then carried by the bloodstream to the excretory system and eliminated.
Note, that the attachment of antibodies to the synthesized glycoproteinous spikes renders them incapable of interacting molecularly with cells. Accordingly, release of the protein/antibody complexes into the bloodstream poses no threat. That is why the statement “While the paper focuses strictly on Covid-related issues, it unavoidably raises questions about the new vaccines that contain billions of spike proteins that could greatly increase the chances of severe illness or death” is TOTAL GARBAGE.
What would happen if the SARS-CoV-2 virus coronal spikes did not induce B memory cells primed by vaccine to neutralize the spikes of infecting viri with the antibodies specific to those proteins existing by virtue of the mRNA vaccines? The viral RNA would enter the vascular endothelium via the S-receptor-rich respiratory tract, infect endothelial cells including those of the blood vessels, replicate, destroy the infected cells and continue their onslaught, producing disease and death including by this very mechanism verified to exist by the Salk Institute!
In order for your adopted and regurgitated assertion to be true, the mRNA vaccine-induced spike protein— not pre-formed glycoproteinous spikes on a pseudovirus — would have to be demonstrated to produce the vascular cellular damage observed in the SI in vitro and in vivo experiments.
The purpose of in vitro studies, then animal studies, then three-phase human trials, is to determine whether a vaccine will be efficacious and safe.
Perhaps some of the extremely rare coincidental occurrences of three vascular deaths following vaccination — the rate of which is three per one million doses — might be causally related to the vaccine, for example resulting from accidental intravenous injection of the vaccine and clotting associated with endothelial blood vessel lining damage produced by spike protein synthesized in the cytoplasm of those vascular cells, when a vaccinator fails to draw back in the plunger to verify lack of aspirated blood before pushing the plunger and injecting the dose. That is, of course, pure speculation on my part and it seems far-fetched. If it were a real thing, it would be expected to occur far more frequently.
In sum, what you’ve posted here in your Comment as “Truth” is pseudo-scientific crap. Truth does not hurt, it is neutral. But this kind of disinformation propagated for the promotion of a cultural/political agenda, does grave harm.
Here’s some truth, the mRNA injections are not vaccines.
But here’s the big one, Covid-19 was not a pandemic.
Guest Post by Southern Sage
The pandemic hoax is over. This is not and never was a “pandemic”. A pandemic is a disease that kills – repeat, kills – million of otherwise healthy adults and children, as in the Spanish Flu, the Black Death or the Plague of Justinian. Corona virus (Covid-19) is a serious public health threat in the same way many other diseases have been, from AIDS to Swine Flu, Hong Kong flu, and so one. Thanks to nincompoops (or corrupt evil bastards) like Fauci , Gates and Ferguson, our political leaders were panicked into adopting unnecessary and arguably counter-productive tactics that have wrecked our economy and likely saved hardly anybody.
If New York is any indication, ignorant government intervention cost thousands of lives. A targeted approach concentrating on public transport, large crowd events and the vulnerable (hospitals, nursing homes, people already suffering from serious health programs) would have cost a fraction of what was spent and would have been far more effective.
Washing your hands, avoiding crowds, insisting on proper cleaning of airplanes and subways, wearing a mask or, better, staying inside if you are sick or vulnerable, were the proper responses. Destroying the economy was not.
The silly behavior of many (not all) health care professionals has exposed them as nothing more than self-centered white trash. I will not even go into the “doctors” dancing TicTok with brainless nurses and having the gall to put it on the Internet. Ditto for the dirtbags in scrubs trying to keep free Americans from getting on with their lives. They deserve to be run over or have the crap beaten out of them.
If you are a healthy person not creaking with old age and you are still running around with a mask and gloves, or ratting out your more intelligent neighbors who do not buy into this farce, you are a shameless moron.
They’re not even hiding it anymore.
Here’s the “Big Lie”.
We were all lied to about how “horrible” 2020 was going to be — and was — in terms of excess death. Indeed this is the “justification” used for everything — ‘Warp Speed’ (despite the now-emerging risks of killing people wholesale), lockdowns, mask orders, destruction of businesses, ruining a full year of student education in the United States and more.
The CDC paraded around their charts telling us repeatedly that people were dropping dead at a ridiculous rate and so did the media. You know, people were dying but otherwise wouldn’t have? This was the entire reason that politicians, businesses, schools and others gave us for all these “measures”; we had to do it because people were going to and did die at a wildly-excessive rate. This was an awful pandemic, remember — the worst since 1918, dwarfing all recent experience.
What if I told you that was all a lie?
Fact: It was a lie.
2020 was not the worst excess death year since the 1918 pandemic.
It was second.
The worst year in recent memory was…. wait for it…… 2017.
That’s right — all of the screaming, the lockdowns, masks, development of stabs, all of it: We did it and are still doing it for, what we now know, was a complete and total load of bull****.
In 2017 the excess death rate was 14.7%, with 400,732 excess fatalities (more than in 2020) resulting in 13.0 million years of lost life and this was wildly higher than in 2020 because a very large percentage of those excess deaths in 2017 were in working-age people who had a lot of years left, on average, where in 2020 an enormous percentage of the deaths were in nursing homes where the average life expectancy at admission is SIX MONTHS. How much worse was 2017? Let me quote it for you:
The comparison is more striking when years of life lost is the measure used. Goldstein and Lee estimate that the mean loss of life years for a person dying from COVID-19 in the United States is 11.7 y. Multiplying 377,000 decedents by 11.7 years lost per decedent gives a total of 4.41 million years of life lost to COVID19 in 2020, only a third of the 13.02 million life years lost to excess mortality in the United States in 2017.
In terms of years of life lost due to excess mortality 2017 wasn’t just worse than 2020 — IT WAS THREE TIMES AS BAD and more people, by gross count, died in excess as well!
In short the media, Fauci, Birx, your Governor, your county and city Mayors and all the so-called experts lied through their teeth and rat****ed you, your employment, your social life and scared you to death over a disease that in fact resulted in less excess death by a factor of three in terms of years lost than an entirely-ordinary year three years prior during which nobody said a damned word.
We should use every means available, fair or foul, to shove this fact up the rectums of all government agencies and so-called “experts” that screwed us for what was not a record-breaking year in terms of excess deaths. In short they lied; just three years earlier we had a worse year and yet not one peep was uttered nor a single action taken that harmed or destroyed a person, business or freedom.
Bet this won’t get into the public consciousness? Like hell it won’t.
It’s already happening.
