Another great article from the Epoch Times. This is information you cannot get from the MSM.

Typical fools. I remember in the 1980’s when San Francisco had a problem with seals in Fisherman’s Wharf. The 100’s of seals slept everywhere and San Francisco threw everything at the seals: fences, bad noises, bad smells, etc. Then San Francisco gave up, the seals do their thing and the tourists are happy. Give up the vaccine addiction, let herd immunity to its thing and the citizens will be happy.

then there’s this...

13 Sept: Cleveland Jewish News: Caught on hot mic, Israeli health minister says ‘green pass’ not based on epidemiology
Imposing “green pass” rules on certain venues is needed only to pressure members of the public to get vaccinated, and not for medical reasons, Israeli Health Minister Nitzan Horowitz said on Sunday, ahead of the weekly Cabinet meeting.

Horowitz was caught on a hot mic telling this to Interior Minister Ayelet Shaked, who was also unaware that the conversation was being taped and would be broadcast on Channel 12 News...

Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett subsequently told the Cabinet that tolerance towards those who choose not to get vaccinated has ended, according to Channel 12...

13 Sept: Times of Israel: Health minister on hot mic: Some COVID restrictions are to incentivize vaccines
Intelligence Minister Elazar Stern laments that the unvaccinated are taking up beds in coronavirus wards: ‘It’s irritating’
By TOI STAFF
Several ministers were overheard prior to a cabinet meeting on Sunday saying that some coronavirus-related restrictions are only aimed at incentivizing vaccination, rather than driving down morbidity, while lamenting that the unvaccinated are taking up hospital beds.
“I also think you can remove the Green Pass for outdoor restaurants,” Interior Minister Ayelet Shaked told Health Minister Nitzan Horowitz, in footage broadcast by Channel 12 news on Sunday evening...

following is Nick Coatsworth, former Deputy Chief Medical Officer, Australia, also admitting vaccine passports merely a method to push the vaccines:

VIDEO SKY NEWS AUSTRALIA: 7min45sec: 14 Sept: Townsville Bulletin, Australia: Vaccine passports could be ‘very successful’ if made temporary
Infectious diseases specialist Dr Nick Coatsworth says the way to make vaccine passports successful is to have them temporarily to encourage vaccination rates.

“You make them temporary. They’re not going to be around forever, ***they’re designed specifically to increase uptake rates,” Dr Coatsworth told Sky News Australia.

“They don’t exclude full participation in society, there might be things you can’t go to without a vaccination passport.
“It doesn’t fully exclude people from society, but it does give you an incentive to get yourself vaccinated.
“If we promote them in that sort of way then I think they could be potentially very successful.”

They keep jabbing people with the a vaccine designed to fight the Alpha variant when people mostly have the Delta variant. All these brainiacs can’t figure out that what worked against the Alpha doesn’t work against the Delta.

Maybe they need to realize that the vaccine IS the variant.

Perhaps some one needs to have a talk with NAFTALI BENNET who may be a smart person in many ways and perhaps maybe even a good politician but he appears to be lacking common sense, as anyone who has been following this pandemic by now knows that you cannot vaccinate yourself out of it. If he keeps up what he is pushing he may end up with a lot of dead Israelis, is this really what he wants? Hopefully he is less stupid than the powers to be in the US who are on the same path.

“Our tolerance for people who do not get vaccinated has run out,” Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett stated Sunday, exasperated that his vaccination strategy—arguably the most aggressive in the world—has failed to curb the Delta variant coursing through the country.

Just like crazy uncle joe says.

I guess liberals are all using the same playbook.

246 on Sunday were deemed critically ill,

Out of a population of nine million. Is that a crisis?

How many Israelis are currently critically ill with cancer, or heart disease, or kidney disease, or just the regular flu?

I suppose if the media ignored all medical stories except dog bites, reporting every severe dog bite in the world, every day, people would think there was a catastrophic crisis in dog bites. Everyone would be buying mace and wearing leather, bite-proof clothing, etc.

4,636 total Covid deaths in China! What an amazing country!

I recall early on and when they had maybe 700 dead. Some guy was in a meeting with some US government people regarding Covid and said “I’m guessing it is more like 7,000!” One of the head guys in the briefing said “70,000. Now lets get back to work here.”

In the USA it is about 0.2% of the population dead from Covid if the Worldmeters numbers are to be trusted. For China, with a population of about 1.4 billion, that same percentage would be 2.8 million people dead.

But, the Chinese live in much larger and denser cities than we do, so I’m guessing that transmission would be higher as well. NYC has about 0.4% Covid dead of the population. I’m guessing China’s numbers would be more like that. (So double it to 5.6 million people). Although had in poor medical care, living conditions, etc....

Honestly.

On the absolute basis of science (the scientific method and synthesizing what we know from the studies so far world wide), we should stop immediately fussing about covid politically. No more mandates for anything, with ONE EXCEPTION*.

No more doing anything you don’t wish to do, masking, vaccinating, etc. Live our lives normally. Protect our family members and neighbors who are ill or immune compromised. Shop for them and wear masks with them if it helps. Expect the metabolically compromised (including obesity) to have the facts they need now to be able to change their diets and lifestyles to protect themselves. Done. Fini.

*The one exception is that we should all mask up in senior residences and medical buildings. Forever. It should be the only thing coming out of this stupid pandemic. It’s as decent as lowering curbs on street corners for people in wheelchairs or with strollers.

Flus killed some of us every year. We did no stopping of society ever. We never shut down holidays or get togethers. Every Christmas party or winter wedding or concert was a super spreader event. Humans are MEANT to be exposed to germs and fight them off. Let’s get back to believing in ourselves.

I was having this discussion with a friend in Israel yesterday. She is unvaccinated, which makes her a pariah. We were talking about the insanity of both Israel and the US in dealing with COVID.

The difference I see is the data from Israel is true and there are many more valuable studies, but the government does the exact opposite of the medical recommendations.
