being lied to about the drugs that heal COVID19. America's FDA, and National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Dr. Anthony Fauci, are dragging their feet on approving a drug that provides very strong positive effect on COVID19. Fauci, speaking from the White House, said on the matter of approving Hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin: Official government guidance to doctors! From the world's most populous nation! With the largest COVID19 infection! Which has shown the largest drop in caseload! This is "anecdotal evidence" to Dr. Fauci and America's FDA. These imbeciles are so busy making the paperwork go faster for you...

Police in Paris no-go zones are becoming overwhelmed trying to maintain the nationwide quarantine and have handed out record numbers of fines.

A man guarding a local pharmacy told newspaper Le Temps that many of the residents do not even believe the virus is a threat to them at all “They do not understand anything. Some even say that this virus is a fable of whites...

I pay $1600 per month for healthcare as a small business owner to cover my wife and two kids I still have at home. Next month, I will not send the premium. If I needed healthcare right now, there'd be none. So why am I paying? Besides, when I needed an MRI for a ruptured achilles, the Hospital charged me $3600 and only covered $1600 of it. When I got a hernia, they said it was cosmetic... When I needed an xray, the only thing the doctor really cared about, was me taking a colin test, poop test.... I told...

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) ripped Democrats for blocking a mammoth stimulus package from advancing on Sunday, accusing them of a "spectacle" and "playing games" with the economy. "I want everybody to fully understand if we aren't able to act tomorrow, it will because of our colleagues on the other side continuing to dither when the country expects us to come together and address this problem," he said from the Senate floor. McConnell noted that during the vote the stock futures dropped five percent, adding that "the notion that we have time to play games here with the American...

March 22 is the feast day of Saint Octavian of Carthage — a martyr for orthodox Nicene Christianity to its rival tradition of Arianism. One of the most consequential of the ancient world’s many confusing christological ruptures, the Arian controversy arose in the fourth century when the priest Arius of Alexandria preached that Christ was a subordinate entity to God the father — distinct from what is now the mainline trinitarian Christian position that God the father and Christ the son are equal and consubstantial divinities. The Arian position enjoyed substantial support, and it was largely to resolve this controversy...

The Third Sunday of Lent is that of the Veneration of the Cross. The cross stands in the midst of the church in the middle of the lenten season not merely to remind men of Christ’s redemption and to keep before them the goal of their efforts, but also to be venerated as that reality by which man must live to be saved. “He who does not take up his cross and follow me is not worthy of me” (Mt.10:38). For in the Cross of Christ Crucified lies both “the power of God and the wisdom of God” for those...

Good Evening all: Here is the 72 hour update (Day +5 from original post) on the data presented below. The data has been fast changing and as for all data sets there is some good news, some bad news, and some interesting news. I am adding the UK to the analysis. I will post the incremental 48 hour data points under each country. In terms of the data, the Worldodometer uses 2400 GMT to measure the 24 hour period, so I am convinced this is standardized appropriately. From the High level view, Italy is going showing reduced new cases today...

Feminism attacks the very foundation of society because it attacks family life. This post points to my personal analysis of the catastrophic effects and modus operandi of this mental disease: https://freedom-demokrasi-and-civilised-humanity.com/2020/03/23/i-will-tell-my-story-2/ Sane people will fight it.

I say no. It is not worth the high unemployment and millions of destroyed businesses just so we could potentially save the lives of hundreds of thousands 80 years old citizens. Today is Day 7. We have until Day 15. Then let's go back to business as normal while keeping our elderly and medically vulnerable in quarantine. If we continue to lock things up to destroy our economy, well, the American people are not going to put up with it.
