Everything here is based on what trusted independent experts have said as well as deductions from what they have said. Everyone needs to know the truth, not fake news and misinformation. We do not need government reactions to the virus that destroy the Bill of Rights and the Constitution We do not need censorship by those same people or those they control. If people don't act soon, that's what we'll get. Here is one thing to take action on -
Forced Covid Vaccine? Please watch the video. NOTE: when I say I've researched this or that, I am using this definition (yes, I've been told I didn't do research because I didn't do the actual study!): "the systematic investigation into and study of materials and sources in order to establish facts and reach new conclusions."
Wow - this blog post is getting longer by the day. So here is a very brief summary of the most important point: 1. Regardless of all that has been done, the virus will not be gone until herd immunity is reached. All the actions taken thus far are delaying that date only, not preventing a single death or case. 2. There are currently at least two things you can do to survive and even thrive without hindering or delaying herd immunity.
Masks, social distancing, stay-at-home orders, quarantines, lockdowns, testing, etc., will not end the virus. They will only slow it down and are therefore not needed other than to keep the hospitals at a manageable level. As those orders are lifted, there will be spikes again as just happened with Japan and Australia. The only thing that will end the virus is when herd immunity is reached The more people who get the virus the sooner it will end. That is herd immunity and what Fauci said he did not want (probably the only time he's been honest). I put together a short and long version at the end of this blog post explaining what constitutes herd immunity and how it works.
The other day I posted the story of a star football quarterback who tested a false positive for Covid resulting in this quote from his wife: “Even after we knew it was false positive, our school told us they were not allowed back, I was approached in a grocery store and told I was ‘endangering others,’ my kids were harassed and kicked off a playground, I was told I needed to wait in my car when trying to pick up food, and people closest to us had to get tested just so they could go back to work.. and that’s just to name a few things,” Kelly said. Someone criticized me for suggesting maybe you might not want to get tested and then added at least not until tests are accurate. I would double down on my view knowing that this virus will not go away until herd immunity is reached regardless of testing or any other measures they have taken. When this finally does end, the same amount of people will have died regardless of any interventions, just the time frame will be different. If you don't believe me, go to an epidemiologist for the explanation. Or just look at what Sweden did and where they are - almost at zero deaths now. And watch the Highwire link below.
The Highwire from Aug 6, 2020 - Explains how herd immunity really works - i.e. - lockdowns will not change the number of cases of any virus nor the number of deaths from it, only the time period in which they occur. Plus much more is covered in this episode.
What Happens When the CDC Uses Crude Science to Support Public Policy? By Allison Lucas, Esq. - This is on the subject of masks. Complete with references. Check Allison's bio at the bottom if you think for any reason she is not qualified to write this. Plus, with the information from the epidemiologist interviewed in The Highwire, even if masks worked, they would not change anything other than the timeline. Also, scroll down to my previous posts on this subject.
If you missed seeing the Frontline Doctors press conference, you can see them as well as the evidence on HCQ here:
Hydroxychloroquine Protocol Continues Getting Censored. Again, and I'll keep repeating this - the doctors in the videos, the Yale epidemiologist referenced are the kinds of people I go to for my information and research. I will only go to regular people like me if they give references to these kinds of experts.
Now that you've had a chance to watch the frontline doctors speak and are interested in their credentials (“ white coat doctors “) because the media, etc. are trying to discredit and ban them.... Here you go-
The panel of doctors that were banned:
Simone Gold, MD - Emergency Medicine Specialist in Los Angeles, CA and has over 31 years of experience in the medical field. She graduated from Rosalind Franklin University Of Medicine Science/The Chicago Medical School medical school in 1989. She is affiliated with Centinela Hospital Medical Center.
Dr. Bob Hamilton - pediatrician from Santa Monica, California. Medical School UCLA Geffen School of Medicine, Los Angeles, CA. Internship UCLA Geffen School of Medicine, Los Angeles, CA. Residency UCLA Geffen School of Medicine, Los Angeles, CA.
Dr. Stella Immanuel - primary care doctor in Houston, Tx. Went to medical school in West Africa, Nigeria. Has practiced in Louisiana and now resides in Texas where she has treated more than 350 Covid patients.
Dr. Dan Erickson, DO - Emergency Medicine Specialist in Bakersfield, CA and has over 16 years of experience in the medical field. He graduated from Western Univ Of Health Sciences/College Of Osteopathic Medicine Of The Pacific, Western University Of Health Sciences medical school in 2004. (While both degrees mean your doctor is a licensed physician, their training differs slightly, and each has a unique perspective on care. “An M.D. follows an allopathic medical training path, whereas a D.O. follows osteopathic,”)
Dr. James Todaro, MD - a Ophthalmology Specialist received his medical degree from Columbia University, Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons in NY, and completed his surgical training with four additional years of residency in ophthalmology.
Dr. Joe Ladapo MD, PhD - Physician at UCLA and clinical researcher. Internal Medicine, American Board of Internal Medicine, 2011.
Residency Internal Medicine, Beth Israel Deaconess Med Ctr-East Campus, 2009-2011.
Internship Internal Medicine, Beth Israel Deaconess Med Ctr-East Campus, 2008-2009. Degree Harvard Medical School, MD, 2008 Harvard University Grad. School of Arts, Sciences, PhD, 2008.
First GIANT POINT - These people should be American Heroes bringing important information and dialogue to light but instead, they are being censored and bullied.... don’t you think it’s time you began to ask why? What subject did they talk about? Their almost 100% success rate treating and curing people who had Covid by giving them HCQ (hydroxychloroquine), zinc, with azithromycin. The very same thing Tony Fauci is doing his best to hide or prevent you from getting. Could it be that he stands to make a fortune from one of the vaccines (that's a rhetorical question - we know the answer)? Here's another link with a probable explanation:
Dr. Fauci’s Double Standards: Polarizing the Nation on Hydroxychloroquine. On the last line of that link's page, I would add, "and death." I just found this link:
Global HCQ studies. PrEP, PEP, and early treatment studies show high effectiveness, while late treatment shows mixed results. Some of the studies used HCQ with and/or without zinc. Here is the link where I found out about all those studies:
NEW Study: Hydroxychloroquine Treatment of COVID had a 79% Lower Mortality Rate than Countries that Banned it - by listening to the video of an interview with a cardiologist, I learned of the link and went to it. The article itself is an opinion but the doctor gives the facts with supporting evidence. Hopefully, by reading articles that give the facts you will understand why I never listen to CNN and why you should not trust the CDC, FDA, etc. They all lie. You must investigate if you want the truth.
Next GIANT point - The same number of people will die from Covid regardless of what actions were taken. However, by doing what they did, an equal or greater number of people will also die as a result of their response - from suicides, drug use, drinking, accidents, heart attacks, etc. Plus with the economy now in ruins and millions of jobs lost, they'll be thousands more homeless and businesses will be gone. All for nothing gained. And all because they want a multi-billion dollar vaccine, or perhaps to get Trump out of office, or even worse. Perhaps they want to destroy the Bill of Rights and the Constitution - it's happening in front of our eyes.
Herd Immunity is a fact. Masks, social distancing, quarantines, stay-at-home orders, etc., will not change those who catch Covid and those who die from it, it will only change the timeline. The two things that will lessen the numbers are first, according to the frontline doctors are HCQ, zinc, and azithromycin, which they are doing their best to block and censor. The other thing that they are blocking and censoring is how to support your immune system. If you scroll down my blog you'll find the answers on how to do that.
What's the bottom line? They are willing to let you die so they can come out with a vaccine that will most likely do no good at best, and may kill you at worst.
HERD IMMUNITY
The short definition of herd immunity: a reduction in the risk of infection with a specific communicable disease (such as measles, Covid-19, influenza) that occurs when a significant proportion of the population has become immune to infection because of previous exposure so that susceptible individuals are much less likely to come in contact with infected individuals (like what a fire break does when fighting a fire).
The long version of Herd immunity (also called herd effect, community immunity, population immunity, or social immunity) is a form of indirect protection from infectious disease that occurs when a large percentage of a population has become immune to an infection from previous infections, thereby providing a measure of protection for individuals who are not immune. In a population in which a large proportion of individuals possess immunity, such people being unlikely to contribute to disease transmission, chains of infection are more likely to be disrupted, which either stops or slows the spread of disease. The greater the proportion of immune individuals in a community, the smaller the probability that non-immune individuals will come into contact with an infectious individual, helping to shield non-immune individuals from infection.
Individuals can become immune by recovering from an earlier infection. Some individuals cannot become immune because of medical conditions, such as immunodeficiency or immunosuppression, and for this group, herd immunity is a crucial method of protection. Once a certain threshold has been reached, herd immunity gradually eliminates a disease from a population. This elimination, if achieved worldwide, may result in the permanent reduction in the number of infections to zero, called eradication.
Herd immunity was recognized as a naturally occurring phenomenon in the 1930s when it was observed that after a significant number of children had become immune to measles, the number of new infections temporarily decreased, including among susceptible children.
If herd immunity has been established and maintained in a population for a sufficient time, the disease is inevitably eliminated—no more endemic transmissions occur. If elimination is achieved worldwide and the number of cases is permanently reduced to zero, then disease can be declared eradicated. Eradication can thus be considered the final effect or end-result of public health initiatives to control the spread of infectious disease.
The benefits of eradication include ending all morbidity and mortality caused by the disease, financial savings for individuals, health care providers, and governments, and enabling resources used to control the disease to be used elsewhere.
Individuals who are immune to a disease act as a barrier in the spread of disease, slowing or preventing the transmission of disease to others. An individual's immunity can be acquired via natural infection or through artificial means, such as vaccination. When a critical proportion of the population becomes immune, called the herd immunity threshold (HIT) or herd immunity level (HIL), the disease may no longer persist in the population, ceasing to be endemic.
NOTE: You don't really need to understand the math below, as epidemiologists will do this for a given disease. For Covid-19, it has been estimated to be around 20% because many people already had immunity to it from past coronaviruses.
The critical value, or threshold, in a given population, is the point where the disease reaches an endemic steady state, which means that the infection level is neither growing nor declining exponentially. This threshold can be calculated from the effective reproduction number Re, which is obtained by taking the product of the basic reproduction number R0, the average number of new infections caused by each case in an entirely susceptible population that is homogeneous, or well-mixed, meaning each individual can come into contact with every other susceptible individual in the population, and S, the proportion of the population who are susceptible to infection, and setting this product to be equal to 1:
R0*S=1
S can be rewritten as (1 − p), where p is the proportion of the population that is immune so that p + S equals one. Then, the equation can be rearranged to place p by itself as follows:
R0*(1-P)=1, so 1-P=1/R0, so Pc = 1-1/R0
With p being by itself on the left side of the equation, it can be renamed as pc, representing the critical proportion of the population needed to be immune to stop the transmission of disease, which is the same as the "herd immunity threshold" HIT. R0 functions as a measure of contagiousness, so low R0 values are associated with lower HITs, whereas higher R0s result in higher HITs. For example, the HIT for a disease with an R0 of 2 is theoretically only 50%, whereas a disease with an R0 of 10 the theoretical HIT is 90%.
When the effective reproduction number Re of a contagious disease is reduced to and sustained below 1 new individual per infection, the number of cases occurring in the population gradually decreases until the disease has been eliminated. If a population is immune to a disease in excess of that disease's HIT, the number of cases reduces at a faster rate, outbreaks are even less likely to happen, and outbreaks that occur are smaller than they would be otherwise. If the effective reproduction number increases to above 1, then the disease is neither in a steady-state nor decreasing in incidence, but is actively spreading through the population and infecting a larger number of people than usual.
An assumption in these calculations is that populations are homogeneous, or well-mixed, meaning that every individual comes into contact with every other individual when in reality populations are better described as social networks as individuals tend to cluster together, remaining in relatively close contact with a limited number of other individuals. In these networks, transmission only occurs between those who are geographically or physically close to one another. The shape and size of a network is likely to alter a disease's HIT, making incidence either more or less common.
The cumulative proportion of individuals who get infected during the course of a disease outbreak can exceed the HIT. This is because the HIT does not represent the point at which the disease stops spreading, but rather the point at which each infected person infects fewer than one additional person on average. When the HIT is reached, the number of additional infections begins to taper off, but it does not immediately drop to zero. The difference between the cumulative proportion of infected individuals and the theoretical HIT is known as the overshoot.
In heterogeneous populations, R0 is considered to be a measure of the number of cases generated by a "typical" infectious person, which depends on how individuals within a network interact with each other. Interactions within networks are more common than between networks, in which case the most highly connected networks transmit disease more easily, resulting in a higher R0 and a higher HIT than would be required in a less connected network.
