wow. this 10 second video pretty much sums up 90% of policy maker perspective and response.
almost none of them believe a word of the rules they are gleefully imposing on the rest of us.
"watch what i do, not what i say" is a powerful heuristic to assess sincerity.

Pandemic-Industrial Complex
Over the last 30 days. The U.S. conducted over 50MM COVID tests. We're now running at well over a $5+ billion dollar pace every month. Now you know why they love "testing testing testing" so much, despite the tests not working.

Australia abruptly abandons COVID vaccine trials after two participants test positive for HIV
The post-pandemic hangover needs to begin
But the media continues to feed the public their fear drug, so the inevitable pain will only be postponed, and greatly increased.
Today’s reminder that in Italy – the big developed country worst-hit by the ro – the odds of a healthy person under 40 dying from #Covid this year are 0.00006%.
Yes, less than 1 in 1 million.
True story, bro.

Bankruptcy lawyer conveyed to me: "Yeah, show me a hospital with less than 85% ICU utilization and I'll show you a hospital going out of business."

UK citizens are unwitting lab rats for the COVID vaccine
Two people in the UK went into anaphylactic shock upon receiving the vaccine. And so now the public is being warned that anyone with a history of allergies should probably not be vaccinated. This is extremely reckless, but I am relieved that there hasn’t been a big push for an “all-at-once”, same day vaccination plan for the entire world. There is no telling what type of injuries we’ll see next in the UK following vaccination.
A decidedly unscientific opinion
Retirees, teens/young adults in college, and highly-paid professionals are the only ones still buying into COVID doomsday-ism and supporting lockdowns. When I see anyone driving with a mask on, more often than not there is white hair above and shriveled skin behind. Or they appear to be sophomores in college. Or they’re driving a Lexus. These people have no conception of the pain that being thrown out of work can cause. Mainly, because they’re either retired, still on the parental dole, or they are able to work from home, they can indulge in the cinematic aspect of “crisis!” For them, “lockdown” is entirely theoretical. This gives them the opportunity to indulge in the worst of the idiocies being promoted by the Doomsday cult of COVID. There is no cost to it, reality doesn’t grab them by the neck and slap them around while demanding that they snap out of it.
Others aren’t so lucky.
An example: I briefly spoke with a man in his late 30’s, married with three kids, and the topic inevitably turned to COVID. He’d lost his job in the oil field due to the deliberately-induced economic collapse that lockdowns caused. Needless to say, his opinion of COVID was far more nuanced than, say, the married attorneys who work downtown. More nuanced than my 60-something neighbors who are enjoying a secure retirement and can indulge in fantasy.
This man, not retired, working a real job, doesn’t have the privilege of believing a lie. He knew that COVID was nothing more than a mild cold for the vast majority of infected people, and he knew that lockdowns were a crime. I affirmed that, yes, they are crimes against humanity, and that millions are suffering today because this fantastical belief in a boogeyman virus won’t go away.
Never forget: 266 U.S. hospitals furloughed thousands of workers in the Spring
Oh, COVID causes hospitals to be “overwhelmed”? Then why did hundreds of hospitals lay off thousands of staff during what was supposed to be pandemic? The disturbing information in this article, of course, has been memory-holed.
Italy’s COVID apocalypse that wasn’t
Great thread by Alex Berenson, pointing out what we all suspected.
2/ On the other side, 10,588 deaths were in people over 90.
Yes, 700 times as many people over 90 have died of #Covid in Italy as under 20. And 15 times as many as under 50.
The median age of death is 82.
Don’t let anyone lie about who’s at risk here.https://t.co/pDkVoKwb4X

Some specifics:
26% in kidney or liver failure.
23% with dementia.
17% with cancer within five years.
16% in heart failure.
12% with stroke.— Alex Berenson (@AlexBerenson) December 9, 2020
That’s right. IN ITALY – THE BIG COUNTRY HARDEST HIT BY COVID – fewer than two relatively healthy people under 40 are known to have died from the illness every month since the epidemic began.
