Bangladesh just reported zero COVID deaths in the entire country in a 24-hour period. Charitably, one-quarter of the population is vaccinated. This poor, incredibly densely populated nation appears poised on the verge of achieving herd immunity – despite violating every principle the high priests of the pandemic assure us are necessary to beat COVID.
Bangladesh has a population of roughly 167 million people. These people are jammed together in an area the size of Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania has a population of roughly 13 million.
Bangladesh has a population density of over 3000 people per square mile. The population density of the United States is 94 people per square mile.
Keep in mind that the average population density for Bangladesh includes areas of the nation that are essentially uninhabitable. Urban areas of the nation are almost incomprehensibly more densely packed.
Dhaka, the nation’s capital, has a population density of 36,941 residents per square kilometer. That is 95,677 people per square mile.
The poor live in vast, unbelievably dense slums. That’s at least 40% of the population and keep in mind that ‘poor by Dhaka standards’ is so far below U.S. poverty levels as to be virtually incomprehensible to the average American. Dhaka is regularly named one of the world’s least livable cities behind just behind war-torn disaster zones in the Middle East.
Living conditions in Bangladesh are unsanitary, squalid, and dangerous. Bangladesh is a desperately poor country. Any academic talk of social distancing or disinfection of work areas or schools is an indulgence in fantasy. People hang on by their fingernails. They survive. They have no time or money or resources for games. If anything we are being told by the lords of the lockdown is true, Bangladesh ought to be a killing field. This is the virus’s fantasy come true. The entire nation is a petri dish.
COVID should be tearing through the slums of Dhaka like wildfire, and the bodies should be stacked like cordwood in the narrow, filthy alleys that separate the shacks jammed with people and the gutters running with filth. A single cough could infect dozens of people already weakened by other diseases, malnourished, and unable to afford medical care.
It is not. The contagion is burning out. We have been lied to. COVID is vanishing from Bangladesh.
And yet, in Europe and the United States, the high priests of COVID continue to ignore reality. The men and women who claim to speak for science, data, and objectivity push ahead with an agenda designed to strip the populace of individual freedom, empower big government, and enrich Big Pharma.
Some 79% of Germans are “fully” vaccinated. COVID numbers are soaring. And, so, of course, the prescription must be more of the same.
Meanwhile, all across Europe average people are rising up and demanding an end to the madness. They are marching. They are refusing to comply. They can see with their own eyes what the so-called experts either cannot or will not. All of the lockdowns and social distancing measures and vaccinations have failed.
The “pandemic” will end when sufficient numbers of the people in each nation have had the disease and acquired natural immunity. We cannot vaccinate our way out of this situation. We cannot end the disease by decree.
Bangladesh is perhaps the ultimate proof of the complete bankruptcy of every idea that has been trotted out by the bureaucrats and autocrats of the planet since this entire crisis began. It exposes the complete lack of any factual basis for the belief that we must continue to force vaccinations on the population and punish those who fail to comply.
Perhaps more than anything it highlights the real agendas at work here. People must get vaccinated, because they must be made to comply and because Big Pharma must have its profits. A solution to this manufactured crisis, which preserves personal freedom and rests on natural immunity achieves neither of those goals.
If anything we are being told by the “experts” were true, Dhaka would be a ghost town. It is not. It is moving ahead and out of the pandemic. We are not so lucky.

PING
They would be if Dr Fubar had his way 🤪
Consider that they just might be lying about the COVID death rate.
You know, *might* be lying.
Because unlike the USA, Bangladesh is a poor nation and cannot afford to bribe the medical establishment with $12,000 for every death recorded as COVID.
I had COVID last month, it was no big deal...
The only difference between that and any other flu I’ve ever had was a total lack of sense of smell.
That was very weird... other than that no biggie.
Why?
Maybe they are. I mean I have not heard from anyone there since goodness knows when.
Seems they are on the "youngish" side of the world population, and more readily able to survive it.
I doubt they are germophobes. Their immune systems are probably as robust as they get.
Anyone who survives to adulthood in Bangla Desh probably has a very formidable immune system.
Yes...thank you! I love that. It’s a stupid cold!!!
And…there has never been a successful coronavirus vaccine. That’s because Coronas reproduce and mutate prolifically. These mutations are not unusual. And most of the time the mutations are more contagious but less lethal.
I am not a virologist. I just read. These facts are fairly easy to verity. Are reporters and politicians so busy they can’t read?
In the last two years, Bangladesh peaked at 8.7 cases per 10,000 in August. The US peaked at 75.8 cases per 10,000 in January.
Bangladesh peaked at 0.14 deaths per 10,000 in August. The US peaked at 1.02 deaths per 10,000 in January.
The US needs to send Bangladesh some vaccines and respirators.
You should be celebrated. Since you’ve recovered so nicely, are you still on track to perform your tricks on Saturday at Bishopsgate?

Given general living conditions there, it could be “survival of the fittest” whose genes have been refined over many, many generations.
