Coming or Going?
June 5, 2020
I'm getting more confused than ever over this pandemic now. There's so many mixed signals from everywhere, it's hard to know if the virus is coming or going? Is it gaining strength and causing more infections like it seems to be doing in some cases, or is it weakening and going away as some scientists suggest? The signals in the news coming from all sides: doctors, scientists, politicians, schools, hospitals etc seems to be in one big massive conflict.
Personally, I believe like I have all along.... that most of us have already had it back in late December and early January when we thought we had the flu or a weird cold or something and thus most of us are already immune to it. That's what I believe. I believe the authorities know that as well.
I believe the lockdown was imposed for some other reason (probably for the massive tranfer of wealth that occurred during the lockdown - as per an article I'll be posting in this message). I also believe they wanted to do away with as many people as they can - due to over population reasons, so the sick and elderly (who else? - they're always the targets) along with some ethnic groups (as per another article I shall post here) were targetted to be done away with via this virus.
I know for a fact that the way they handled the whole lockdown thing was patently wrong. I'm sure most of the medical officers world wide knew that too, but they were told to shut up and sit down and let the politicians handle the whole thing. Because there was a total global concerted effort to close the borders down all at the same time and the same measures were taken amongst most countries at the same time too. You couldn't get any more collusion than that if you tried.
So whatever this is, it's political more than it has to do with health, as you will also see some of the doctors and scientists intimating in some of the following stories too.
As I'm sick and tired of the gloom and doom and outright lies and BS surrounding this pandemic, I am going to inject some fun and interest in this post as well, by providing links to fun music videos, interesting books with information in it you can use to protect yourself or to save money or maybe for the upcoming relockdown we're all about experience in a few weeks time. But I promise you it will all be COVID19 or lockdown related. No going off on tangents to visit Disneyland virtually this time. We're going to stay right here and figure out what's going on and how to cope with it. If that's at all possible.
So to start off....

Researchers just retracted a massive study on whether a common malaria pill can help treat coronavirus This is an excerpt from that article (used under fair use):
Initially published in May, the study had found that the treatments didn't appear to help patients hospitalized with the novel coronavirus and instead were associated with heart complications and an increased risk of death.
But in the weeks since the study was published, scientists have been raising questions about the paper's statistical analysis and integrity of the data, which are held by a US company called Surgisphere.
Initially, editors at The Lancet issued an "Expression of Concern," saying that serious scientific questions had been raised.
Some of the study's authors launched an independent third party peer review of the data used in the study, but said that Surgisphere wouldn't transfer over the full dataset.
"Based on this development, we can no longer vouch for the veracity of the primary data sources," the authors wrote on Thursday.
So all I'd like to know is what the Surgisphere company is so afraid of? And why they won't had the data back over for further study? Do they have their own agenda for not wanting that medication to work, or what? That's what I'd like to know.

COVID-19 anti-vaxxers would 'let the disease continue to kill people', Bill Gates warns Bill Gates would let his vaccines continue to kill people instead. That's what he'd prefer, because that way he gets paid for each dose of lethal, misscarriage causing vaccine he sells to some poor country. I wouldn't buy anything that Bill Gates was near, if it went in my body somehow. I mean I wouldn't even buy a bubble gum if he owned a bubble gum machine dispensing company. (Meaning he didn't make the gum but he handled it, so there's no telling what he did or didn't do to it, so I just wouldn't trust it).

Coronavirus: WHO advises to wear masks in public areas Ummmm duh..... I've been saying this since we first heard about it in January but I was told I was crazy and to shut up. I mean just washing your hands and nothing else didn't make sense to me, considering it is a respiratory disease. We don't breathe, cough or sneeze with our hands, but we do with our noses and mouths. So now that I've given up on even listening to any of these half baked bozos, and only now, they're saying wear a mask. I was wearing one before - maybe when it counted the most - as there were more cases going around, but again I believe I already had it and am immune. Anyhow I've given up wearing them now because the surgical masks and homemade masks are totally useless to anyone, so I don't see the point of wearing them and I only have a couple N95 masks left and we each have a P100 mask with changeable filters, but those are big heavy rubber monsters of masks that I would hate to wear in the summertime. So unless it's mandated by law saying we have to wear a mask, I won't.
Coronavirus: AstraZeneca to begin making potential vaccine
Since Bill Gates has his hand in this, I shant be getting this vaccine. I think I'll wait for the one in Canada to be made if I get one at all.

'Senseless' and 'wrong': North Carolina mayor condemns police destruction of medics' tent From what I've seen of the cops actions in the US lately this doesn't surprise me. They all seem to be senseless lying murdering thugs, or what some might call hypocrites or chickens and others might call anti-racist. Given the clashes between the public and the cops I'm not sure what I'd call them, because there's as much of a chance they are anti-racists as they're chicken and so kow-tow to the crowd and kneel. Or maybe it's somewhere inbetween, where they can't stomach going draconian, authoritarian on their own people.

Time to stock your medicine cabinet for the pandemic Stock up on non perishables as well. Get whatever you need done, done.

In general use this month to prepare for the next lockdown because it's coming whether you like it or not.

‘Respect them’: Even in wealthy areas, food bank demand high Maybe if they sold some of their more expensive toys they'd be able to afford to feed themselves. I'm sorry but when I see wealthy people bumming for food that just reminds me of a millionaire I knew who took his 3 kids to McDonalds and bought 1 coke and put 3 straws in it and made them share it. Some of them are so cheap they squeak and if they can find a free meal they will. Like that millionaire told me..... He didn't get to be a millionaire by spending his money - he got to be one by saving it any which way he could. So it wouldn't be beneath his dignity to go to a food bank, nor for a lot of his friends either.

Know Your Rights: How To Film Police Safely And Legally In Canada This might have more to do with if you're in a rally or riot and want to film cops actions, but again given the exorbitant cost of those physically distancing tickets they love to hand out to anyone and everyone, it might also apply here as well. But in any case, it's good for everyone to know, because I know that cops actually deleted some photos I had on a digital camera years ago, because I witnessed something and took incriminating pictures that they didn't like. I didn't know until just now that they weren't allowed to do that.

Unmasking the stealth virus behind COVID-19
Sask. man says province shouldn't be clawing back disability payments for people on CERB Like I said above, it's always the poorest that gets hurt the worst. I swear after having gotten a measly $65 a month disability cheque for years, I'd just like for the gov't official that thought that was sufficient be forced to live on that just for one month to find out how "sufficient" it really is. Now if I were still getting that and got CERB but they clawed back my disability, I'd be totally flabbergasted that they could be that petty and mean. They were already petty & mean enough with me as it was, forcing me to drive 15 kms to see them and back every 2 days when gas was in the $1.50 a litre price range, because they were dicking me around pretending they would pay for glasses for me, when all they wanted to do was harass the daylights out of me. Finally, one afternoon my "agent" called and asked me why I didn't go in to see him that day and I asked him point blank that if I had've would he have signed off on my glasses I need and he said "no" and I said well gas isn't free, if you want to see m that badly start paying for my gas to go there and back all the time. He said no, so I said no well I'm not going in then and you can sit on the big $65 you give me and spin if you want to. I don't give a F, because right now you're costing me that much to go see you every 2nd day for nothing. So yeah they can be mean, nasty, nitpicking and just plain cruel when they want to be and I think any one of them treating someone who's already disabled (like as if they think we did it to ourselves, so we could sit home and collect that big whoopdie do amount of $65 a month, or that it's somehow fun to be disabled and in pain a lot of the time) the way they do, should have to endure the same treatment & amount they're doling out for at least a year, to see if they can take it themselves. I'd be surprise if the jerk that was my agent would even be able to last a half a day on what he gave me.

Yarmouth ferry won't run if it puts Nova Scotians at risk, minister says Since I grew up on the route that went from Yarmouth to Halifax and knowing how vital to the economy those cars and trucks coming off those ferries were to the communities along the way (they'd stop for gas, food, ice cream, a roadside veggies stands, stay in motels, etc... especially those coming off the 3pm ferry), I have to wonder what kind of risk he's talking about? The risk of making a living and earning money or the risk of catching the non-existant virus?
