A List Of Some Of The Most Absurd Things That Have Happened In Recent Weeks

  • The CDC’s guide to “Preparing for a Hurricane or Tropical Storm” lists the first step in preparing for a hurricane as: get a COVID-19 vaccine.
  • White House Press secretary Jen Psaki admitted in a White House Press Briefing “we are flagging problematic posts for Facebook that spread misinformation.” She further admits that the White House is working with online influencers to provide them with “accurate information and boost trusted content.” Furthermore, Psaki claims that people “shouldn’t be banned from one platform and not others for providing misinformation.”
  • A man whose mask strap broke during a flight was criminally charged with “mischief” for sneezing on an Air Canada Flight.

  • Youtube censors video of Nobel prize winner Dr. Satoshi Omura for discussing ivermectin. The Japanese biochemist won a Nobel Prize for his work that led to the development of ivermectin (which is now being described as a “wonder drug” for COVID19 by the medical community, including a group of world experts known as the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance). YouTube’s “Medical Misinformation Policy” explicitly prohibits “claims that Ivermectin or Hydroxychloroquine are effective treatments for COVID-19.”
  • Leaked internal slides reveal Canada plans on launching a national COVID-19 vaccine passport system — but not until December 2021 at the earliest. The presentation, prepared by the Treasury Board of Canada, confirmed that the final product will follow the internationally recognized SMART Health Card standard.
  • France just approved a law restricting the unvaccinated from visiting the hospital. France’s new so-called “health law” obliges the French to get a health pass showing they have been vaccinated against Covid19, or recently tested negative. Starting August 1st, the French population will have to show a COVID-19 health pass to enter restaurants, concerts, shopping malls, hospitals (for non-emergency procedures and visits), and to travel via trains or planes. Italy has implemented a similar pass known as the “green pass” and the UK recently announced its “COVID status certification” QR scanning app program.
  • World renowned epidemiologist John Ioannidis published an article titled “Infection fatality rate of COVID19 inferred from seroprevalence data” in the WHO’s academic journal Bulletin, where he analyzed 61 studies. The analysis found that the median COVID-19 infection fatality rate for people under 70 years was only 0.05% (and 0.23% when corrected for all ages). The study also estimated that over half a billion people have been infected as of September 2020. If this is true, this would mean that COVID-19, while more prevalent than the seasonal flu, actually has a similar fatality rate to the flu after all. As NIAID director Dr. Fauci told CBS News on Feb. 16, 2020: “a very severe seasonal flu is 0.2% to 0.4%; regular seasonal flu is 0.1% or a typical pandemic like 1957 of 1968 is 0.5%-0.9%.”
  • The Church of God in Aylmer, Ontario has been fined over $200,000 for holding outdoor worship services. The church has been holding outdoor services ever since their doors were locked on May 14, 2021 by the courts for not complying with public health orders.
  • When discussing the banning of public gatherings, Robert Chief, Health Officer of Nova Scotia, admits that “the other purpose of the injunction is to prevent groups that are deliberately spreading false information.”
  • BC apologizes for outing the unvaccinated. The BC Government News’ official blue-check Twitter account asked followers to “tag a friend or family member who still needs their first dose.” In an effort to “help them register” for their vaccination appointment.
  • Pfizer is seeking U.S. authorization for a 3rd dose of its COVID-19 vaccine, saying that another shot within 12 months could dramatically boost immunity and may help ward off the Delta variant. Pfizer’s own data is now showing that its vaccine immunity against the coronavirus declines in vaccinated people over time, particularly in the elderly. In Israel (the only country to have exclusively received the Pfizer shot) data shows 40% of recent COVID-19 cases were vaccinated -mostly over 6 months ago. Compared to less than 1% who were unvaccinated but had previously tested positive.
  • Thailand entered a new lockdown on July 19th and is set to remain in lockdown until medical workers and other essential workers receive a 3rd “booster” Covid vaccine. 
  • A journalist has been summoned to appear in court for the crime of committing journalism during a state of emergency. The journalist was streaming live for Druthers and had their press badge, Druthers shirt, and Druthers mic flag visible the entire time.
  • B.C. Doctor, Dr. Stephen Malthouse, sues The College of Physicians and Surgeons BC (CPSBC) over right to free speech. Malthouse filed his case in June 2021 in response to a May 17th, 2021 letter from the CPSBC stating that he would be reprimanded if he continued to express public opinions relating to Covid-19.
  • Biden announces the government will be going “door-to-door, literally knocking on doors” urging people to get the shots. Meanwhile, Uber and Lyft are offering free rides to vaccination clinics on select dates.
  • At least 1,086 Ontarians died waiting for surgeries in 2020, according to a report by SecondStreet.org, as the healthcare system cancelled non-essential procedures. Disruptions to healthcare have continued into 2021 as Ontario halted non-essential surgeries in April. Ontario estimates it will take 3.5 years to clear the backlog of surgeries.
  • 1/3 of the world’s population went hungry during the pandemic, says the UN. The IFAD president, Gilbert Houngbo, said enough food was being produced to feed everyone and the crisis is a failure in the food system. 
  • The Canadian Museum for Human Rights is now only welcoming fully vaccinated visitors and children under 12. Ironically, their new policy is a violation of human rights
  • Biden claims that social media platforms like Facebook are “killing people” because “the only pandemic is among the unvaccinated.” What Biden failed to mention is that a primary reason for this is because, earlier this year, the CDC announced it would stop recording COVID breakthrough infections (infections in vaccinated people) unless they result in hospitalization or death (whereas unvaccinated individuals who test positive for COVID-19 still count as a “case” even if they are asymptomatic). Additionally, new guidance was issued to laboratories recommending a reduction of the PCR test’s Ct (cycle threshold) value to 28 cycles (from 40 cycles), but only for fully vaccinated individuals being tested for COVID. The change in Ct value makes the tests wildly less sensitive for vaccinated people, while keeping the tests overly sensitive for unvaccinated people. Both changes resultS in lower overall numbers of reports of “breakthrough cases” in the U.S. and a higher number of “unvaccinated cases.” Nevertheless, the US government allocated 4 billion dollars to fight vaccine hesitancy. 
  • Even when adjusted for inflation, the US has now officially spent more on the economic fallout of the Coronavirus than it spent fighting both world wars combined.
  • Deaths from drug overdoses in the US soared to more than 93,000 last year, a staggering record that reflects the pandemic’s toll on efforts to quell the crisis and the continued spread of the supply. The death toll jumped by more than 21,000, or nearly 30 percent, from 2019, according to provisional data released by the National Center for Health Statistics, eclipsing the record set that year.
  • The Teletubbies got vaccinated! They showed-off their “COVID-19 Vaccination Tubby Cards” on Twitter to prove that they were vaxxed with either “AstraTubbica” or “Noo-nson & Noo-nson.”
  • A study from researchers at the Hospital for Sick Children found that more than half of children aged 8 to 12 reported clinically significant depressive symptoms during the second wave of the pandemic. That number jumps to 70 per cent among adolescents surveyed.
  • A member of the WHO investigation into the source of the pandemic that issued its report (saying the virus was “likely natural”) earlier this year.
  • UK Government ministers are expressing concerns that COVID could be spread through farting. They have pointed to evidence that suggests Covid-19 could be spread when an infected person breaks wind in a confined space such as a toilet.
