—TAKEAWAY LESSONS FROM PANDEMIC 2020-21: A THREAD—

Below, a few basic lessons I have drawn, as a political philosopher and informed citizen who has made it my business to closely follow political, social, economic, clinical, & epidemiological aspects of the pandemic:

1/ Most mainstream journalists cannot be relied upon to critically uncover, & impartially convey, the facts surrounding a complex & unfolding crisis. If you watch RTE, BBC, or CNN, you are fed naively one-sided stories laced with fear-mongering, misleading use of statistics, etc.

2/ If you wish to inform yourself about a public crisis like this pandemic, you must find commentators who have limited access to mainstream media, good credentials, & arguments that consider a wide range of available evidence. You need to be pro-active about diversifying sources

3/ Reliance by govts upon advisory committees with a clearly one-sided take on the pandemic (eg suppression at all cost) has led to catastrophic outcomes. Govts must diversify their scientific sources & encourage ROBUST scientific debate among their advisors.

4/ Hyper-centralised management of public health is ineffective. Decision-making power must be decentralised so that it can adapt quickly to local conditions. Care homes were badly hurt by top-down mandates that were sluggishly responsive to evolving conditions on the ground.

5/ The trust-based model of public health was ditched in 2020. Govts have turned to a “command & coerce” approach, unleashing widespread distrust & resentment toward public authorities. More coercive health policies have not been shown to be more effective than less coercive ones

6/ Locking down healthy populations has had catastrophic repercussions on health & well-being with very small returns if any as a method of disease control. We must NEVER repeat this reckless experiment ever again.

7/ Future public health crises must be handled with efficient, targeted policies driven by detailed risk assessment. We knew from March 2020 which populations were most & least at risk, but most govts foolishly chose to treat EVERY social interaction as a high risk scenario.

8/ Public fear has been fed daily by media & politicians focusing on remote possibilities rather than probable outcomes. Public officials & journalists need to inform the public with facts & evidence, not feed their fears with IDLE SPECULATION about potential disasters.

9/ Many Western nations are now prepared to jettison basic civil liberties like freedom of movement & patient consent in the pursuit of an unrealistic “zero Covid” utopia. Widespread civil disobedience & protests may be the only effective antidote to these totalitarian tendencies

10/ This pandemic has offered us a poignant illustration of the dangers of highly centralised States. In a highly decentralised State local & municipal authorities could push back against civil rights violations & destructive stay-at-home orders imposed by national govts.

1) THERE IS A VERY REAL, CREDIBLE AND SIGNIFICANT DANGER THAT mRNA SPIKE PROTEIN THERAPIES WILL INDUCE PRION OR PRION-LIKE DISEASE

A paper from 2016 shows that prion and prion-like proteins can also spread and propagate from cell to cell through macropinocytosis. It is also

2) noted that the Spike Protein of SARS-CoV-2 can enter cells through macropinocytosis, without the presence of the entire virion. Given the recent Tweet to me by @endocdoc, where he recently saw a patient develop Creutzfeld-Jakob after COVID-19, the extant paper showing CJD

3) CJD after COVID-19 infection and the recent death of the head of Astra-Zeneca research from CJD should be concerning to all. Especially if he gave himself the AZ therapy during Stage 1 or Stage 2 trials. This would give a possible timeframe for onset.

Again, all Spike Protein

4) mRNA and DNA should be paused until long term animal studies can be

1/MUST-READ. THIS EXPLAINS EVERYTHING. 1995, "CDC Foundation" created. Allows Pharma to $$$ CDC. $28 million in ONE YEAR from Pharma, $13.5 million in ONE YEAR from @BillGates and Melinda Gates Foundation. CDC IS IN PART INVESTED IN PHARMA via

2/ Thus FUNDING what CDC says to US. I am furious:my state, synagogue "await CDC guidance". Also support vaccines. BUT CDC IS PROFITING AND FUNDED BY BILL GATES AND PHARMA. CDC inflates COVID data too, per peer reviewed study.COMPLETE CIRCLE OF CORRUPTION. Needs criminal charges.

3/ BINGO. TOTAL CORRUPTION. CDC Foundation "invested" ONE BILLION in "lifesaving programs" worldwide; millions of its funding from Pharma, Gates. "PARTNERS" WITH FOR PROFITS (as does NHS dashboard). SO CDC IS INVESTED/ALIGNED W FOR PROFIT COMPANIES and its guidance is corrupted.

BAYES' THEOREM: The basic reason we get so many false positives to COVID19. The disease is so rare that the number of false positives greatly outnumbers the people who truly have the disease: THE MATHS:
https://t.co/oLHyxYJW9H

"Suppose that you are worried that you might have a rare disease. You decide to get tested, and suppose that the testing methods for this disease are correct 99 percent of the time"

"Suppose this disease is actually quite rare, occurring randomly in the general population in only one of every 10,000 people. If your test results come back POSITIVE, what are your chances that you actually have the disease? LESS THAN 1% chance that you have the disease!"

"The basic reason we get such a surprising result is because the disease is so rare that the number of false positives greatly outnumbers the people who truly have the disease"

Say mass testing of the contagious virus was done to 1 million people. In that million, 100 will really have the disease, 99 will be correctly diagnosed as having it. 999,900 of the million will not have the disease, but of those about 9,999 will be false positives! #BayesTheorem

1/: The Nuremberg Code is a set of research ethics principles for human experimentation created as a result of the Nuremberg trials at the end of the Second World War. In light of the current events, they are more actual than ever before. ⬇️an important thread⬇️

2/: These so-called ‘Doctors’ Trial’ focused on physicians who conducted #inhumane and #unethical human experiments in German concentration camps, in addition to those who were involved in over 3,500,000 sterilizations of German citizens. (the picture shows doctors/criminals)

3/: Ten points of the code were given in the section of the verdict entitled "Permissible Medical Experiments". They can be found in detail on the following website:

4/: Point #1 means that the person involved should have legal capacity to give consent; should be so situated as to be able to exercise free power of choice, without the intervention of any element of force, fraud, or deceit.

5/: Using an insufficiently-tested vaccine on humans is unethical. However, as long as people voluntarily consent to receive the vaccine, being informed about all risks, everything is OK. Doing this with force, however, is against the Nuremberg Code.

Important - share: Camera footage out of care homes (USA, corrected), provided by @RobertKennedyJr's team. You can clearly see: Collateral Damages, Army assisting, force, death.

Once upon a time there was a Raja named Uttānapāda born of Svayambhuva Manu,1st man on earth.He had 2 beautiful wives - Suniti & Suruchi & two sons were born of them Dhruva & Uttama respectively.

Now Suniti was the daughter of a tribal chief while Suruchi was the daughter of a rich king. Hence Suruchi was always favored the most by Raja while Suniti was ignored. But while Suniti was gentle & kind hearted by nature Suruchi was venomous inside.
#KrishnaLeela

The story is of a time when ideally the eldest son of the king becomes the heir to the throne. Hence the sinhasan of the Raja belonged to Dhruva.This is why Suruchi who was the 2nd wife nourished poison in her heart for Dhruva as she knew her son will never get the throne.

One day when Dhruva was just 5 years old he went on to sit on his father's lap. Suruchi, the jealous queen, got enraged and shoved him away from Raja as she never wanted Raja to shower Dhruva with his fatherly affection.

Dhruva protested questioning his step mother "why can't i sit on my own father's lap?" A furious Suruchi berated him saying "only God can allow him that privilege. Go ask him"
