Do you think all the genetic sequencing work going on is just a load of rubbish?


If you understand that NO VIRUS has ever met Koch's postulates (which is the gold standard for identification of infectious diseases), you understand that they've never been able too 100% link a DNA sequence with any "virus" in history.

They pick whatever DNA sequence they THINK that is associated with the "virus", and then they simply claim it's that one without any other way of verification. This is, by definition, a load of rubbish. And if you increase the cycle in the PCR tests (which the own inventor said that was not designed for diagnosing any infection), you'll detect literally anything you want.

They get away with it because people, in general, have no idea how it all works.

are you people going to make me pull out the meme of the dude pissing on the other dude's leg? I'll do it if I have to.

LOL, masks don't work. I wonder where I have heard that before.

For people who don't quite understand why the masks didn't work even though they stopped 50-80%% of particles sized whatever, I will try and explain.

While they initially knew this was aerosolized in transmission (the Chinese study showed that within weeks), they quickly downplayed that until well into the pandemic when they CDC finally admitted that it was almost entirely spread by aerosol transmission. Technically, you could get it from spittle in your mouth, but almost all of it was just swirling around the air and everyone was breathing it no matter the effort to distance, etc.

This means that if say 95% of particles size 5 and up (just using basic numbers) are stopped by a mask, the particles size 4 and under are what are carrying 95% of the transmission vector virus, and effectively none of those was stopped.

It doesn't matter if 100% of the particles size 5 and up are stopped. The particles (aerosols) smaller than that that spread 95% of the virus were not.

The "Studies" showing particle stoppage did not properly correlate it to transmission stoppage and "seemed" very convincing. They also fit the official narrative, so were pushed heavily by media, Fauci (the guy who funded creation of Covid) , etc.

In fact, the polypropylene fibers in surgical masks and n-95 masks are specifically designed to incapacitate viruses via electrostatic forces.

I am aware that polypropylene fiber masks attract and capture particles due to electrostatics, but this is the first time that I have heard that the electrostatic effect ‘incapacitates’ the virus.
Do you have a citation for this?

Let's throw another wrench in the whole masking farce... masks could have been effective if they had been treated with a saltwater bath and dried before use. MotherMayEye authored a post (with studies if I remember correctly) at the time.

I sprayed my masks with colloidal silver. I don't have any studies showing efficacy, but my hope/assumption was that the silver would work the same as salt. Maybe it worked... maybe it didn't... but it sure didn't hurt.

I think the main purpose of mandatory masking was for the constant literally in-your-face visual reminder of DANGER!!! Keeping people on edge and one step from panic.

I still see fools driving around in their vehicles alone with masks on now.
I like to wave to them to see how they react.
Most just stare blankly.


Fools? Hmmmmm....

I know a family who did this because they have an elderly family member with health issues who also travels in the vehicle. They didn't think they could prevent infection, but hoped to minimize viral load in the vehicle in case someone is infected.

Just good people taking reasonable precautions for reasonable risks.... doing what they can do for themselves and by themselves.... for someone they love and cherish.

Not a damn thing foolish about that!

I do however wonder about folks who are so intrusive about what others do for themselves and by themselves in the sanctuary of their own vehicle... especially to the point of mockingly "waving" at complete strangers for cheap points.

Ill-fitting, porous cloth masks are about as effective at preventing Covid as underwear is at preventing VD. Not putting yourself in with the infected is the bigger key, in both cases.

I still believe that Covid cases would have been cut by a high percentage if stores like Walmart were forced to operate all cash registers to prevent the congregation of customers for long periods at the checkout process.

Another poor decision in restaurants was the policy of every other booth and then enclosed with shower curtains. Effectively making “cootie boxes” for customers to pass Covid to others while the unused tables remained relatively clean.

Even hospitals were terrible as an uncle was released and then called the next day to be informed that the test results came back as positive for Covid. This was early on when results took time and were inaccurate. He still had to take dialysis on “Covid Days” because of it for three weeks with the other infected. Same clinic, just on the off days…so how did he catch it? Doesn’t take Encyclopedia Brown to solve that mystery. Shaggy and Scooby would knock that one out by first commercial.

Are you the poster that knows stuff but won't share because you signed a gagging order and will lose your job if you do?

Something like that.
I signed a thing and got paid to keep my mouth shut and not pursue the court system because of a thing in regards to the covid vaccine. Almost not but maybe was Pfizer Inc.

Were you vaccine damaged or are you hiding something about vaccines from the public?

Almost not but maybe was Pfizer Inc.

I don't understand what you are saying?

The masks being used during the pandemic don't prevent covid. There has never been any good evidence that they make any difference, it's as simple as that. Mandating the use of masks was done to instil fear, so that we would constantly be reminded that other people were vectors of disease.

Being made to wear masks while going about your day outdoors in fresh air makes it even more obvious. That can only be an exercise in insanity, or psychological manipulation. As if to rub it in, how many of the people mandating them were caught out not wearing them?

Remember that 60th birthday party of a certain ex president? Where the 400+ guests were unmasked (they were a more "refined" group or something...so it seems virus knows to leave you alone if you're on the guest list lol), while the hired help and servants had to wear them constantly?

From your source: (randomized study group vs. real life population groups may yield different results)



The study authors did admit to some limitations and a risk of bias, including the low number of people who followed mask guidance and the wide variation of outcomes.

"The results might change when further evidence becomes available," they wrote.


What I've noticed through all of this regarding masking and disinfecting is that people were not wearing N95 masks, which is what was recommended at the beginning of all of this, in the small town population I was out and about in. I also saw many people wearing mostly cloth/surgical masks improperly and not using hand sanitizer before entering stores. Who knows what their hygiene habits were at other locations or at home.

There are at present not enough studies, either way, to ascertain exactly what measure or a combination of measures will slow down transmission because throughout this whole pandemic a combination of measures was enforced/used.

I believe a combination of measures, such as mask wearing, disinfection, distancing and not gathering in large crowds may have helped the most to thwart transmission.



The most strident critics of government interventions and of public health measures during COVID-19 go so far as to say that the “cure was worse than the disease”—that is, they think NPIs killed more people than COVID-19 itself. Our research found no evidence for this assertion; we found that letting the virus rip through the population in an uncontrolled way was much deadlier, at least in the short term, than the most stringent NPIs, such as shelter-in-place orders.

The only way to prevent COVID, is simply not using the fake, fraudulent, tampered, manipulated thing called PCR test. By the way, if you did PCR testing, they have your DNA. That's all they wanted with this testing crap, collecting DNA. For what? We don't know yet.

I believe the post said something about those driving around ALONE in a car with a mask on...

Like somehow the covid virus is traveling in feral packs just waiting to pounce on the unsuspecting when they pull up at the next stoplight. Yes, they are fools who haven't even the slightest understanding of how disease spreads.

I'm not going to point out something that every person should have thought of.
I noticed it from the get go and acted on so and essentially got paid to STFU.
Those eggs aren't going to pay for themselves.
