    By 1985 -- four years after AIDS first appeared -- 73% of the cases were in gay men, 17% in intravenous drug users, 3% in Haitians, 2.2% in those who'd received blood, and 1% in sexual partners of AIDS patients. Less than 4% didn't fit into one of these categories.

    With zero cases of proven heterosexual transmission, in February 1985, Fauci said, "Am I worried about [heterosexual transmission]? Yes."

    By 1987, only 4% of AIDS cases could possibly be attributed to heterosexual contact -- and half of those were in Africans and Haitians.

    And yet, here was Fauci in March 1987, still babbling about the risk of AIDS to heterosexuals. Asked if AIDS could be transmitted to men by vaginal intercourse, he answered, "Absolutely." He actually warned the public about French kissing: "[H]ealth officials have to presume that it is possible to transmit the virus by exchange of saliva in deep kissing."

    If some of these quotes sound familiar, I cited a few of them in that March 2020 column, at a time when "public health authorities," cable news hosts and the president were demanding nationwide lockdowns.

    Today, Fauci is doing the exact same thing with COVID, treating teenagers as if they face as much danger as people in their 70s, despite the latter having a 300 times greater chance of dying from COVID than those under 20. For young people who contract COVID, the chances of dying are less than the risk of dying from sunstroke over the course of their entire lives. Even for those in their 30s, the odds are about the same as their lifetime risk of dying by choking on food.

    If he's ever interviewed by a serious journalist, perhaps Fauci could explain why his idea of "science" is about avoiding stigmatizing certain groups, and not about saving lives.

    The above was an article that just happened to come out last week.  Whether you agree with her on most things.  She does have some good points in that article.

    A quote about the article:

    AIDS: 750,000 USA, 36 million worldwide.
    COVID: 780,000 USA, 5 million worldwide.

    That odd switch in US vs world deaths should tell you something we already know...

    The number of Covid deaths in the US has been grossly exaggerated for political benefit.

    In the 80’s and 90’s people died from the AIDS treatment (AZT) and not the actual AIDS virus. 

    In the movie Dallas Buyers Club the bad guy was Fauci. 

    Associated Press article from 1988

    If you drill down on the numbers put out by World O Meter you will see some amazing things. Iceland has an overall death rate of one in every 500+ recorded cases. Last six months Iceland is up to one death in 2200+ cases. The UAE has one death per 345 cases, Israel at about 150 cases per death. Canada at 50, USA at 67, same with UK.

    So why such a big difference? Iceland that much more healthier? I am thinking the main answer is a "vast majority" of cases go undetected. Mild, asymptomatic cases not being tested. The CDC said last May that the vaccinated are far less apt to get tested with mild symptoms than the unvaccinated are. Their cases undercounted for sure. Yes, some deaths are not actually caused by COVID, my belief is that number just too small and there have to be other factors involved. Iceland a small island nation with very good testing. Believe they are not missing cases like other nations are.

Last six months Iceland is up to one death in 2200+ cases. The UAE has one death per 345 cases, Israel at about 150 cases per death. Canada at 50, USA at 67, same with UK.

    So why such a big difference? Iceland that much more healthier? I am thinking the main answer is a "vast majority" of cases go undetected. Mild, asymptomatic cases not being tested. The CDC said last May that the vaccinated are far less apt to get tested with mild symptoms than the unvaccinated are. Their cases undercounted for sure. Yes, some deaths are not actually caused by COVID, my belief is that number just too small and there have to be other factors involved. Iceland a small island nation with very good testing. Believe they are not missing cases like other nations are.

    WHAT DID ROBERT F. KENNEDY Jr. SAY ABOUT FAUCI?

    The Real Anthony Fauci:

    If you haven't read the book but are still pro-Fraudci, pro-big Pharma and pro-covid "vaccine" mandates, please STFU until you do so.  peace_5

    NYC residents were promised no masks if you get the shot. 

    A huge majority of New Yorkers got the shot, and now they have to wear masks anyway *AND get another shot*

    “Trust the science!”

    That statement, as written, is misleading.

    Not all (or any) "vaccinated" New Yorkers have to wear a mask.  NY GOV Kathy Hochul announced a statewide mandate in effect until at least Jan.15 but it only applies to [quotation from CNBC] "all indoor public places unless the businesses or venues already have a vaccine requirement in place"

    Meaning, vaccinated citizens with proof of vaccination are not required to wear masks in those particular businesses which offer that exception.  In many places they may be required to wear masks anyway, but in many cases they will not. 

    So your statement, which does not mention the exceptions, is misleading as written.

    There are six more states that have full mask mandates, for the vaccinated and unvaccinated, than there were at the end of July, NBC News reported. 

    Seven states: Hawaii, Illinois, New Mexico, Nevada, Oregon, Louisiana, and Washington, as well as Washington D.C. and Puerto Rico have full mask mandates.

    So this is basically saying that IF you have the vax, you CAN NOT spread covid. I mean, if people that have multiple doses of the vax can take their mask off in doors, that entitles they can NOT spread covid, right? So my question, if you have multiple doses of the vaccine within a short past, can you spread covid?

    Whoopsie. Everyone that thought these major social media platforms were correct when they censored people are in for an awakening. THEY ARE OPINIONS AND IT WAS STATED IN LEGAL PAPERS. What if the "fact checkers (which is really opinion biased)" are the ones that are factually wrong?!

     

    You can not use big tech as "factually correct" anymore. They are not "fact checkers". Which has been argued since this censorship started. Now it's in legal documents and proven they censored views they did not like, not because the information was factually incorrect, but merely because they didn't like the tone.

    Logic of our leaders;

    Children need to be vaccinated so they don't spread the virus to those more vulnerable. That is after you point out healthy children rarely get seriously ill from covid.

    You may want to exclude those unvaccinated from holiday gatherings.

    The vaccinated need not be tested to attend large events and even college sports players that are vaccinated need not be tested.

    August; due to the high number of breakthrough cases Fauci recommends everybody wear masks. Rules above still apply.

    Some locals show a Vax card to get in, no need to wear a mask going against Fauci recommendation.

    University with 99% Vax rate has major outbreak. Nevermind, rules above still apply.

    It's too early in the Omicron outbreak to make determinations yet Fauci already says boosters are 75% effective for Omicron. Where is that conclusion coming from?

    Several college football teams i.e. Ohio State, had a "flu" outbreak and they played through it. Not one player said they were relieved that their covid test was negative. There wasn't any, they're vaccinated.

    So we know breakthrough cases are common. UK reported in July that 40% of hospitalizations were vaccinated. Somehow our vaccines here are better because nobody will report that high of a number. At the same time the UK reported that 40% our president says "Get the vaccine and you won't get COVID. 

    Highly vaccinated countries like Portugal are still having issues. 

    So here we are rewarding obedience rather than science. Get the shot like we tell you and get a free pass. Nevermind covid gets around the shot and you can and will still spread it.

    If you 100 people you knew would be hospitalized if they got covid, gave 50 of them the vaccine, 25 would be hospitalized. That's what we are seeing, 25% are vaxed. So getting the vaccine results in a coin toss 50/50 that you would be still hospitalized.

    With Omicron showing to be mild the new garbage coming out will be; Positive tests even though your vaccinated is the new normal, don't worry about that, your PROTECTED from severe illness or hospitalizations!!

    Of course Omicron is mild for the unvaccinated too, so like in the UK you will hear Omicron has killed an unvaccinated person!! How about  the AGE and previous health status of the person who died?? Oh no, can't tell you that unless they were young and healthy. You only need to know they were unvaccinated.

    Of course if a vaccinated person dies we will quickly inform you they were old, weak, and feeble.

     

    The new normal.

    new Columbia University study says the omicron variant of COVID-19 is “markedly resistant” to existing vaccines and antibody treatments, and that even booster shots may provide only modest protection against infection.

    Fauci says boosters are exactly 75% effective against omicron.

    The CU study also says natural immunity totally ineffective.
