Dear DMark:

Berenson, Yale grad, award winning NYTimes journalist, noted novelist and science and health writer is a "known quack"? Give me a break.

His reporting in the last two years mostly deals with statistics.

Can you look at the statistics without merely foaming at the mouth like a crazed wind up automaton? They (not sure who they are but they include nearly all Democrats, most Republicans, the Public Health Bureaucracies, the Main Stream Media, the Universities etc) go into attack mode.

Yours,

Alex Bereonson's substac from yesterday:



Real Covid numbers from Australia's largest state. 76 percent of deaths since mid-January are in the vaccinated. Death deaths in the boosted are soaring.
Alex Berenson
Feb 1

Every day, the Australian state of New South Wales reports Covid deaths by age - and vaccination status.

Unlike American figures, these do not depend on inaccurate hospital reporting of vaccination status. They are not manipulated or “age-adjusted.”

They are as close to real time data as exists anywhere in the world. New South Wales even reports whether people under 65 had serious health conditions.

Overall coronavirus deaths have accelerated dramatically in New South Wales in the last month, as the Omicron variant speads. (The state has about 8.2 million people, so 40 deaths a day there is equivalent to 1,600 in the United States.)


So who is dying?

In the last 15 days, 417 of the 552 people who died of Covid in New South Wales were vaccinated, compared to 135 who were unvaccinated.

Sixty of the vaccinated people who died had received a booster shot. Those deaths skew markedly to the last few days. Forty-nine of the 60 boosted people died in the last week - including the most recent, a man in his thirties who had no preexisting conditions.

—

The adult population in New South Wales is roughly 95 percent vaccinated, including about 40 percent boosted. So the “adjusted rate ratios” the Centers for Disease Control and media bluechecks love to present instead of actual numbers probably still show that the vaccinated have great protection.

But NSW also recently provided strong evidence that many of the unvaccinated elderly people who died were too sick to be vaccinated. On Jan. 28, it reported a batch of 35 deaths that had occurred earlier in January from nursing homes.

Nursing home residents are generally the frailest of the elderly - a 2010 study in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society found that 65 percent of residents died within a year of entering the home.

SOURCE: https://www.ucsf.edu/news/2010/08/9817 ... 20age%20of%20participants,study%20died%20within%20six%20months.

Thus, for the last year, they have been vaccinated as a matter of course.

Yet New South Wales reported that 14 of the 35 nursing home residents who died - 40 percent - had NOT been vaccinated. The only conceivable explanation for the fact that so many unvaccinated residents are among the dead is that most were too sick to be vaccinated.

When it comes to Covid deaths and vaccines, the adjusted ratios - especially from the United States - are effectively meaningless. The raw numbers are what matter.

Which is why the public health authorities and elite media go out of their way to hide them.

Wow, even knowing how corrrupt the Democrats are, this shocks me. Note the murder's connection to longstanding and very effective voter fraud.

Dear Dmark:

I said the mainstream media's glee in deaths of those who were antivax. I did not specifically reference your refernce to the death. Yours was very pithy without comment. Yet you must have posted about the death for a reason.

Carlos Tejehda's death of a heart attack after his vaccine clearly raises the question of whether it was a heart attack caused by the vaccines which are well known to cause heart attacks as well as strokes.

Here's the quote from Pope Francis on Sept 15, 2021, courtesy of France 24.

Aboard the Papal Plane (AFP) –

ADVERTISING


Pope Francis on Wednesday spoke out against "denier" cardinals who refused the coronavirus vaccine, in an apparent swipe at his main opponent who recently contracted Covid-19.

"In the College of Cardinals, there are a few deniers. One of them, the poor man, contracted the virus," the pontiff told reporters as he flew home from a trip to Slovakia.

The 84-year-old did not name the man he was referring to, but conservative US Cardinal Raymond Burke, one of Francis' fiercest and most vocal critics in the Catholic Church, was recently admitted to hospital in the United States with Covid-19.

Dear Mr. Scott:

I didn't mention first hand experience of vaccine injury because I was focusing on something which virtually all of us have experienced in the last month.

Moreover, it is hard on the ground to know if you are experiencing a vaccine injury or not. Here are a few of my experiences:

* Last May, a friend's daughter, required by the JCMC to get vaccinated miscarries her third child in the end of the second trimester. These things happen. I don't know if an autopsy was done. Some autopsy of the reported vax related miscarriages describe highly unusual clots. Thus, this would be only a little more than speculation.
* A guard in my office building, age 40 with two young children, dies of a brain hemorrhage a month after her shot; Because brain hemmorages are very rare in young people, this seems likely to me.
* The uncle of a woman two offices down dies of a heart attack blamed on the shot in July. I don't have enough information to evaluate this notwithstanding the niece's absolute certainty.
* a friend at work, age 36, has a massive heart attack, two weeks after his second shot of Pfizer, with no prior history, no family history, and no significant signs of heart disease. The doctor do not report this to Vaers but let him know he can if he wants. (I don't even think that is correct). He is also reporting issues with renal problems now which the doctors are blaming on the meds.

There have been other deaths this year that have not been explained. That happens.

What is truly terrifying is reports of excess deaths in highly vaccinated populations, sometimes just moderately excessive, e.g. 8%m sometimes catastrophically.

Yours,

Mao

Dear Mr. Scott:

Can you send the link debunking this?

You know that the entire apparatus of "fact checking" is part of the suppression of speech and thought and seeks to delegitimize anyone challenging the narrative.

The real truth will be almost impossible to determine. However, we all had personal experience in the last two months of these facts:

1. The vaccines don't stop you from getting Covid. I know about 75 - 100 people over the last month who were sick. Probably, 65 of these were unvaccinated. My nine year old was sick as if with a bad cold for a day and a half.
2. The vaccines don't prevent you from getting less sick from Covid. Of the 75 people I know directly, the sickest people were all vaccinated- though none of them were hospitalized thank God.
3. The vaccines don't prevent you from spreading the virus. I caught the virus from a vaccinated co-worker who thought she had a hang over.
4. The virus, at least in this point, is not a big deal. I was the sickest in my unvaxxed household, which meant two days of aches and pains and a headache and symptom free by day four and fully recovered in ten days.

So we can leave aside the information war and based on our direct experience argue the only rationale path is: no masks, no vaccines, no restrictions whatsoever.

And lets just pray that those who have been hurt by the vaccines recover and that those who so far have shown no reaction continue to have no adverse reaction.

Yours,

Mao

There is something unsettling and creepy about the way the mainstream narrative takes absolute pleasure in the death and suffering of an anti vaxer. Pope Francis, "the merciful," was crowing with delight when Raymond Cardinal Burke was hospitalized. Numerous other vaccinated cardinals and bishops have died of Covid but no matter.

I find it extremely sad when people who have been very pro vax end up dying of the vax, e.g. Carlos Tiejhada the NY Times reporter who died after the booster. https://thecovidblog.com/2021/12/25/ca ... stagram-dead-hours-later/

Anyway, may Meatloaf rest in peace. I wonder if he was still a very large man which would not help him with Covid and I wonder if he had good treatment, eg. Hydroxychloroquine etc

You can access deaths from the vaccine, generally thought to be underestimated by a factor of between 10 to 100. Here is the CDC website.

Btw, my account on Nextdoor was disabled because "I no longer live in the neighborhood." Not sure how or why the would have tracked this down. It's true, I moved for family reasons a year ago but I continue to have an office in Jersey City and to be active in my parish and in various community organizations.

Is it paranoid to think someone ratted me out and this is a pretext? My wife, for example, posts about non controversial things and she has not had her account shut down.

Dear RCScott:

Looks like you may be right and Nextdoor is not owned by FB. Or it is? There are posting saying both. This post says that FB has a competing platform, Neighborhoods. https://marketrealist.com/p/who-owns-nextdoor/

Now that I think about it, I'm not sure what is worse. That Nextdoor was owned by FB which appears to be wrong or that Nextdoor an independent startup is just as Orwellian as the Chineses corrupted and monopolistic FB.

Please keep the corrections coming. This is how truth comes out!

Yours,

Mao

Dear Mr. RScott:

Thanks for your correction, if you are correct. There is, however, a lot of basis to believe that Nextdoor is owned or otherwise controled by FB.

See, for example, https://www.mediagistic.com/blog/nextd ... ntly%20reached%20out%20to,Facebook%20Audience%20Network%20(FAN).

Some clips about a film, Utopia, also an Amazon series, is about the need for population control and to reset by creating a virus and a vaccine that sterilizes (a protein and amino acid).

LOL, would gladly post in Latin but not only would the censor miss it but so would my friends and neighbors.

This entire idea of shutting down the discussion because its "dangerous" is crazy and foreign. True, western democracies had censored speech traditionally, basically based on concerns about obscenity and blasphemy. The First Amendment was written to prevent the Federal Government from censoring political speech. This became controlling over the states after the enactment of the 14th Amendment.

SCOTUS has repeatedly held that even speech which on its face is dangerous- advocating the killing of groups or the over throw of the government is still protected.

The Common Law does have provisions for addressing false speech in Libel and slander actions. It also has provisions for addressing speech that causes immediate harm, e.g. yelling fire in a crowded theater- that is a basis for inciting a riot etc and creates liability.

The posters who seem unable to communicate without making juvenile personal attacks seem to have amnesia about how this country was until a few years ago. Ironically, there are almost no restrictions on obscenity and none on blasphemy.

Yet now our scientists, doctors, teachers, judges, lawyers are being terrorized into a party line.

Wanted to generate some appreciative feedback for JCLIST, but no luck.

I don't post on FB and have no Twitter Account. I do, however, use Nextdoor. Apparently, they are now owned by FB.

Nextdoor's censor is truly Orwellian. A post there which questions or attacks the vaccines for covid is not allowed to be put up. Moreover, I am then blocked prospectively unless I swear to follow the censor.

If one speaks indirectly or in code, it will be posted. However, it is inevitably taken down within an hour or two.


Even an abstract post to discuss freedom of speech and censorship was taken!

An experience, perhaps, of things to come.

Congrats to JCLIST for allowing free speech- in particular about the Wuhan flu and various responses to it.

Why are almost all of the other established platforms engaging in view point discrimination?

Why are the professional societies, corporate interests, universities, unions, churches all tripping over themselves to virtue signal that they are on the side of the anti reason and anti speech.

And why are most normal people not freaked out by this???????

ass phenomenon to solve the problems.

(00:09:57): Mass formation is actually a symptomatic solution for a real psychological problem. In my opinion, this crisis in the first place is a large societal and psychological crisis much more than a biological crisis, let’s say. From this state of mental intoxication you can explain all the rest of the phenomenon of totalitarianism. The mental intoxication leads to a narrowing of the field of attention. It makes people only see what is indicated by the narrative.

(00:10:41): For instance, people see the victims of the Corona virus, but they don’t seem to see at the cognitive level, the collateral damage of the lockdowns and all the victims that are claimed by the lockdowns. They are also not able, at an emotional level, to really feel empathy for the victims of the lockdowns. That is not because they are very egoistic. No, it’s just an effect of this psychological phenomenon. And it’s definitely—even as a consequence of mass formation, people do not get egoistic at all. But rather, to the contrary, mass formation focuses your attention so much on one point that you can take everything away of people—their psychological and physical wellbeing, their material wellbeing—you can take it away and they will not even notice it.

(00:11:41): That’s one of the major consequences of mass formation. It’s exactly the same as hypnosis, as classical hypnosis. When a hypnotist—during hypnosis someone’s attention is focused on one point, you can cut in his flesh, the person will not notice it. That is what happens all the time. When a hypnosis is used as a kind of an anesthesia during a surgical operation, a rather simple hypnotic procedure is sufficient to make people completely insensitive to pain. You can, without any problem, cut in their flesh. Even under some circumstances you can perform an open heart operation in which the surgeon cuts straight through the breastbone and the patient will not notice this. That shows us that the focusing of attention is so strong, both in mass formation or in hypnosis, that people are really insensitive to all the personal losses they experience as a consequence.

(00:12:51): Another consequence, that is very typical for totalitarian states, is that people become radically intolerant for dissonant voices. Because if someone tells another story, if someone claims that the official story is wrong, then this person threatens to wake the people up and they will get angry because they’re confronted with the initial anxiety and the initial psychological discontent. So they direct all that aggression at these dissonant voices, at the other voices. And at the same time, they are radically tolerant for their leaders, for the people who pronounce the mainstream narrative. These people can actually cheat and lie and manipulate and do everything they want, but they will always be forgiven by the crowd because the crowd seems to think that they do it for their own sake. That’s also part of the mechanism of mass formation.

Even if we would succeed in waking up the masses now, they would fall prey to a different story in a few years. And they would be hypnotized again, IF, IF we do not succeed in solving the real problem of this crisis. Namely the question: Why did we as a society get in this state in which a large part of the population feels anxious, depressed, experiences a lack of sense, feels socially isolated? That is the real problem. And if we do not succeed in finding out where this problem comes from then the masses will always be susceptible to leaders who try to lure them into a mass formation. So I think the real question in this crisis is: What is there in our view of man and of the world in the way in which we look at life that makes us experience lack of sense-making? In my opinion we must conclude that it is something in our materialistic mechanistic view of man in the world that leads up to a radical destruction of the real social structures and social bonds and of the feeling that life makes sense.

OPINION: DON’T VACCINATE YOUNG CHILDREN
By RUSSELL BLAYLOCK, MD
Mon,11/15/21-4:00PM, 2,860 Reads
I find it incredible that several writers have found the deaths of thousands of mostly healthy people after receiving a virtually untested “vaccine” as something we should ignore, all based on manipulated statistics. Benjamin Disraeli was correct— “There are three kinds of lies: lies, damn lies and statistics”. It has been shown by VAERS data that the number of deaths linked to the COVID-19 vaccines after the first six months of their release exceeds all the deaths linked to other vaccines given over the past 30 years. These COVID-19 “vaccine” related deaths are increasing at a shocking rate, by several hundred each week.

What really concerns many of us is the rush to vaccinate children aged five to 11 with, what many of us consider, a deadly “vaccine”. Our children are already over-vaccinated and adding these deadly vaccines will, in my opinion and others, mean thousands of small children will possibly die and tens of thousands more will be left permanently ruined by these biological agents. Do these “vaccine” proponents think it would be acceptable for small children to die from a vaccine they do not need, and which has now been shown to be highly ineffective?

There is a major difference between a perfectly healthy child dying from a naturally spread disease and dying following a so-called “treatment” to protect someone else. Especially when that child’s risk from the disease is virtually nil. Experts in vaccine injuries are warning of a possible explosion of autoimmune diseases in these children, including juvenile diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, and asthma. Neurodegenerative and neurodevelopmental diseases are also a major concern.

Studies have shown that the vast majority of deaths associated with this virus occurred among people over age 70, most in their 80s and that the majority of the 9,367 deaths now reported with the vaccines by VAERS also occurred among this very same age group. Additionally, these COVID-19 deaths are also occurring by far among people who have serious co-morbid conditions and a poor prognosis without the virus.

Two highly regarded studies have recently shown that these COVID-19 vaccines powerfully suppress all immune cells utilized in fighting viruses, thus making these vaccinated children (and adults) highly susceptible to not only the Covid-19 viruses, but all viruses. Another study out of Sweden found that the spike protein from the vaccines, much to their surprise, entered the nucleus of the immune cells and inactivated two essential DNA repair enzymes. They concluded this would incapacitate the immune system of these vaccinated individuals. Paralysis of DNA repair enzymes would also put the vaccinated child at a very high risk of developing one of the hematological malignancies, such as lymphomas or leukemias. In essence, we could see an explosion of childhood leukemias or lymphomas among these vaccinated children.

We now know that vaccinated individuals can spread the virus variant. Studies have shown that the vaccinated have very high levels of these viruses in their nasopharynx.

Dr. Peter McCullough published his results of early treatment of COVID-19 infected patients and reported that in his patients he has seen an 85% reduction in hospitalizations and especially ICU admissions—that equates to saving the lives of 85% of the infected people in his practice. The CDC ordered doctors not to administer early treatment, but rather allow these people to deteriorate to the point they were severely ill before any treatment was initiated. What this means nationally is that had early treatment been the standard, 595,000 people out of the claimed 700,000 Covid-19 deaths, could have survived, mostly in good health. That means that 85% of the people that died, died unnecessarily because of a CDC imposed policy.

These young children, in essence, would be vaccinated with potentially dangerous vaccines for a virus which in well over 99% of cases, will not make them sick. Worse still, most authorities agree, these children are not transmitting the virus. So, why are they being subjected to these experimental “vaccines”?

We have seen that vaccinating pregnant women can increase the risk of miscarriage if they are vaccinated during the first trimester of their pregnancy. Based on my careful study of the effects of immune stimulation during pregnancy (as with vaccines) I have warned that we could see a dramatic increase in autism and schizophrenia in these offspring, especially if vaccinated during the second and third trimester. I have published this immune mechanism in several scientific journals.

Which one of you proponents of forced vaccination of these very young children would be willing to exchange the life of their own child or grandchild for an elderly relative, a relative with only a few months or years of life left on this earth. I certainly would never consider such a selfish or inhumane idea. I have experienced the terrible agony and ongoing grief of losing my grandchild at age 7 years—I would have been more than glad to have died in his place. The thought that I would sacrifice the life of my child or grandchild so that I could live or extend an elderly relative’s life a few months or years is beyond any consideration.

Mag Benson Companies 211201

These children have an extremely low danger from this virus or the variant, but thousands will die, and hundreds of thousands may be permanently damaged by these “vaccines.” Will the proponents of these “vaccines” respond coldly to these vaccine-induced deaths in “statistical terms” and ignore the thousands of individual children that will have died as these same cold-hearted people have with the tens of thousands of dead vaccinated adults?

What kind of civilization sacrifices its young so the extreme elderly might survive just a little longer? There are many ways to protect the elderly population beyond ineffective, dangerous “vaccinations.” I know, I am one of these elderly.

Send this to every NJ voter you know who still has some semblance of sanity. Even if you are vaccinated and believe its the right thing, deceitful, intrusive and coercive governmental overreach must be resisted. Like Governor Newsome in California, if he retains the governor's office he will double down and NJ will be worse than California.

Credible reports say that Murphy will impose vaccine mandates on New Jersey after the election. Since NJ seems always in competition with California to be the worst state in the union, I suspect we can expect mandates for public employees, probably private employers. Will he also require these "leaky vaccines" that do not work and have proven dangerous side effects to be jabbed into all school children- public, private and parochial? Probably! How could power be such an aphrodisiac to cause a man to destroy our liberty and threaten our health all while everyone says like sheep- "he's keeping us safe."

And since the Democratic machine has been harvesting votes for the last month, is there any doubt who is going to win? Does not help, of course, that the GOP put up a sort of Murphy lite as a candidate- though a much more likeable and normal guy.

The SPLC (Southern Poverty Law Center) is a far left Marxist inspired hate group who goes around calling every normal person an extremist. I don't know anything about the Oath Keepers but I do know that the rule of law is being undermined by the Left.

good for them Your demand for vaccination status is harrassing, hysterical, and improper.

Oh no! Very sad if true. Another piece of old Jersey City gone.
