Life expectancy: a counterfactual example

https://covid19.apps.agenarisk.com/
I think the government should mandate tinfoil hat wearing to lower the risks from getting struck by lightening! It would do more than face covering for “COVID”
I like Norman.
Yes, also very sceptical. I’ll remain on guard. Either they know there are pending legal challenges that are going to succeed, are aware that many can see the Emperor is not wearing any clothes, or it’s a ruse. We’ll wait and see.
Just how much longer can this country (UK) justifiably keep further Covid restrictions in place? Not that they were justifiable in the first place. And that very handy, tyrants 350 page handbook, ‘Coronavirus Act 2020’, also has to go – in its entirety.
Thing is those poo bag members of Parliament can bring it all back at the drop of a hat.
Very few of the draconian restrictions came from that Act. They came by way of secondary legislation at the whim of ministers ostensibly using powers under the 1984 Health Act.
Despite nothing in the public health act 1984 that mentioned locking healthy people in their homes!
Lifting to hide the fact they failed? Until I can travel to any country and move about unimpeded as a vaccine-free human, I will consider them to have restrictions.
Keeping greenpass for traveling is absolutely not all the restrictions!
Increased “vaccinations” = increased deaths.
Simples.
Looks that way, doesn’t it?
EXACTLY what the medical trials showed.
All cause mortality was LOWER in the placebo group. Jabbing killed more than non jabbing.
500% more heart attacks in the Pfizer trial, as if by magic we see no end of sportsmen grabbing their chest and collapsing.
Conin
jectioncidenceWhats that coming over the hill
It’s a variant
It’s a variant
What’s that coming over the hill
It’s a variant
Bet you still need to be vaxxed to enter the country, as a foreigner, or as a minimum show a negative test.
All these countries supposedly dropping all covid restrictions are all continuing to discriminate against the unjabbed, including the UK.
We are all pretending that the jabs have saved the day.
But hey, we also pretended that covid was super dangerous, that lockdowns are effective, that masks work, that testing is helpful.
2 years of pretending turns into a hard habit to drop.
Then there is the even more cynical take which is, of course, jabbed or not jabbed makes no difference, but the jabbed need to be rewarded for paying their tax and to not discriminate would be to admit to the jabbed that it was pointless and they will never do that.
Despots don’t give in. They take everyone down with them. Like Germany and Japan fighting to the bitter end in WWII, even if it meant the destruction of the their country and deaths of millions.
And what we have in power in pretty much every country now are despots fronting for the WEF.
I think we all knew this was the best we could hope for ‘we won, we saved you with jabs and restrictions, now we can let you be free again, mostly, because our restrictions worked’.
“And they’ll work again the next time that The Science tells us that they’re necessary. And now I’ll hand over to The Science, in the shape of its living avatar, Professor Neil Fergusson.”
Reminds me of the film: Battle of Britain, where Goring said, ‘if we lose this war, they’ll tear our ass out’.
Perhaps it’s just a coincidence that countries with the most authoritarian rules have leaders from the community of WEF Forum of Young Leaders.
World’s Entire Fascists?
I think “WEF Youth” has more of a classic, historical feel to it.
As indeed would Schwab Youth, or Schwabjugend.
Schwab boasts that ‘our people’ (i.e. WEF agents) have ‘penetrated’ all these positions of power. He not only mentions Macron, but a large part of the French Cabinet, as ‘our people’.
Until a government apologizes, ends ALL measures for ALL and vows to never implement them again, this is just tactical line giving.
And even then, we’ll only be save from a repeat after a successful prosecution of all culprits and the worst accomplices, followed by a major institutional overhaul.
It’ll never happen. No government will ever admit they’ve made a mistake. Maybe in three hundred years but even that is unlikely as there will be other pandemics before then – perhaps even a proper one.
Wow. I had no idea Sweden had fallen so badly. Bring back Anders he must have been under huge pressure from the cabal.
Yes, reports of its liberties had been over-egged. It avoided mass internment, but that was about all.
It was pretty restriction free when I visited in October 2020
Anders Tegnell is still there, there has been a change of prime minister, however.
Magdalena Andersson is another WEF Stooge.

I’d hope everyone under https://www.weforum.org/people/ worries they’ll share the fate of the Ceausescus
I wonder, precisely who is an ‘unvaccinated’ person? If you had two jabs last summer, then you are to all extents and purposes ‘unvaccinated’ now. If you had a booster any earlier than the first week in November, then you are – again, to all extents and purposes – ‘unvaccinated’ now.
A ‘vaccinated’ person us a craven, compliant, boot-licking zombie.
What gunk remains in their veins is irrelevant.
Very unworthy of you; as an extremely, conflicted and reluctant but immune compromised jabbed person, I take the greatest possible exception to being labelled “craven, compliant, boot-licking zombie”. I will not stoop to your execrable level, but I wish you well in your recovery.
Bingo. Unvaccinated is whatever the State declares on a day to day basis. Freedoms will be rented as long as compliance continues.
Johnson says he wants to stay in until 2030, the plan for Agenda 20/30 is still on track. Devolving more to local jobsworths and less to central governments is the global institutions plan to oversee countries and Blair, the placeman for the UK is still sniffing around.
we were sold Brexit, we got net zero crap and keeping aligned with the crap!
We need establishmentxit/outside-Westminsterxit
We do need change, but the local councils did not cover themselves in glory during covid/ie jobsworths
Most, or all, local councils are 3rd rates. They have shown themselves pathetic and self-serving.
You could be right – another 8 years of ‘Covid’ – and then it just gets worse!
Tegnell may not believe in lockdowns but from what I’ve read he’s been more than happy with all the other ridiculous <expletive> that’s been implemented.
“Sweden is to lift almost all its Covid restrictions”
But not all. I’m sure I’ve seen this before somewhere… ah, yes: “Norway to remove almost all restrictions”, “Denmark to remove almost all restrictions”.
All restrictions have gone – just remember to show your Vaxx Pass or we won’t let you in!
“special recommendations for those who have not yet been vaccinated will remain”
Well, no surprise there.
I have concerns that the recent spate of restriction lifting across Europe is simply a media psyop campaign.
Wait and see what the new rules will be. As far as I can judge, vax passes are still required, as are tests and vaccinations.
I will happily be proved wrong.
As I said last night, Finland’s Government have now declared they have no intention of getting rid of the Vaxx Pass. Ever. In case another virus might happen to come along…
The people orchestrating this fraud should have been removed long ago – not a single one of them has been. They’re all still cashing in.
Yes it’s a cat and mouse game of psychological torture. Massive protests have also made them chose now to back off a little, maybe, to make us lose momentum. But the whole system is still in place and can be reimposed at any moment.
Agreed, on the latest information that I can find, both Finland and Denmark have declared that vaxpässen macht frei. Corporate media headlines are not reality.
No longer?
It never was!
‘Sweden to end restrictions’
The poster in Stockholm advising people to think about washing their hands a bit more often is to be removed.
And will they let clean-blooded people into their nice country?
Bet not.
Yes they will, provided you show ‘proof or having had negative results from a test’ or that you are ‘recovering from Covid’.
Of course, you don’t know what result the test will throw up, and if it comes up as ‘positive’ what then?
What a fantastic country we live in
We are so lucky, we have had free jabs, free tests, free holidays from work, free money, free PPE, free hand sanitiser and masks
Now we are now going to be given free gas and electricity
Reminded me of this quote
“If you think health care is expensive now, wait until you see what it costs when it’s free.”
― P.J. O’Rourke
From each, according to their taxability.
To each, according to their greed.
Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson said:
The pandemic is not over, but is entering a completely new phase. We are nearing the point for Sweden to open up again…
Its not over because it never began. The whole ‘pandemic’ has been and is, a total fraud, and that includes Sweden too..
Oh and.. Magdalena’s another Schwab sprog..
Speaking to the BBC’s Laura Kuenssberg about his claims to be a low-tax Thatcherite, Sunak says he has had to deal with the pandemic and the biggest economic shock in 300 years.
What occurred 300 years ago?
Answer: The South Sea Bubble, another exercise in fraud and mass hysteria. .
“No longer a danger to society”.
It never was a danger to society. It was/is a danger to certain individuals, but not to society as a whole.
Meanwhile news is that Brussels is proposing to extend the use of health passports until 20 June 2023. this link is in Dutch.

I think it will only last as long as Income tax was which was abolished at the end of the Napoleonic war.
Sorry but your response is confusing.
First question: Are you writing about British Income tax? If so that was reinstated again. So perhaps not the best example to suggest that this will not last long.
https://www.parliament.uk/about/living-heritage/transformingsociety/private-lives/taxation/overview/incometaxbolished/
If you are writing about British taxes in response to a EU proposal? As the UK is no longer in the EU I don’t understand the comparison.
Perhaps you could explain things to your audience?
If this goes ahead. It could well mean that The Brits may not be able to go on vacation to the EU, visit friends there or visit their holiday properties.
There will no doubt be many who do not care about this, but there will be a significant number who will care. Those who don’t care, care for an apartheid system.
I think he was joking about dropping UK income tax.
The author mentions why was Tegnell not at the press conference. Because he retired last summer!
I expect you to be better informed on this site!
When was this announced?
UnHerd did an interview with him in the summer, I heard it, amongst other sources, there. I think he even said when it all started he will retire soon.
Thank you for the update.
No doubt, his replacement is from the Fauci/Whitty school of Branch Covidian indoctrination.
Thanks for the info. Didn’t realise this.
Did he retire or was he retired, though?!
Tegnell isn’t retired. He’s still state epidemiologist as of yesterday. We’ve seen less and less of him over the last 12-18 months presumably because his face didn’t fit once politicians got involved. He never was director of the public health agency. That’s the post that been replaced. That’s now the ghastly political puppet Karin Tegmark Visell who says exactly what she’s told to say at press conferences and shuffles like an embarrassed school girl when asked searching questions. Alongside her we also have the even more ghastly new PM Magdalena Andersson who I guess in a bid to show herself as some “iron lady” type was the driver of the absurd, petty and pointless rules which are current plus the unvarnished authoritarian virtual imposition of vaccination ongoing. Yes Sweden has fallen low! The terrible thing is that it’s still better than anywhere else. The world is in a state.
Was covid ever really a danger to society? I mean it was hardly the Black Death or the Spanish Flu was it – I mean I’ve still yet to know anyone who actually died of covid or even met someone who knew someone who died of covid – I’m sure there were deaths because of covid but for all the government propaganda about how virulent and deadly this virus was you would have thought everyone would have known someone who died of covid after two years of this insanity. Some would argue that covid was no more a threat than a severe case of seasonal flu and I would be inclined to probably agree with them – In fact when I had covid back in Feb 2020 I have to say that I ‘ve had worser cases of flu to be honest.
The government’s official figure for infection fatality rate (written answer to Parliament by Jo Churchill, Under-Secretary of State for Health) was 0.096% during the 100% Delta phase last August.
And mostly people in their 80s and with multiple comorbidities.
So, no, never a danger to society.
They knew that, of course. This was their own figure.
totally agree, by any other name
“this means we can open up society, at least for all who have been vaccinated.”
what a Nazi!
The rapes and shootings can continue as they were then. Thanks to Sweden’s importing of so many members of the ‘Religion of Peace.’
I’m not really interested in the removal or lifting of most / almost all restrictions.
It has to be the removal of all / every coronavirus restriction and ‘innovation’, including all the digital / paper passes and the cessation of testing and jabs.
A distinct bonus would be that every single individual and organisation involved will get their just desserts.
If you can’t see the hideousness of politicians grasping onto perceived threats or triumphs and then proclaiming them like it was part of their agenda then you probably deserve to be led by the nose. I have spent time in Scandinavia and I know that many people wouldn’t give a toss about the utterances of this prat. Please just disappear and die.
New studies of effectiveness of Ivermectin emerging every day. Peer-reviewed, large PSM study from Brazil finds, regular use of ivermectin as a prophylactic agent was associated with significantly reduced COVID-19 infection, hospitalization, and mortality rates. The study was published in the Cureus Journal of Medical Science. This medicine is proven over and over again to be effective for covid and flu like symptoms. You can get your ivermectin by visiting https://ivmpharmacy.com
So now we’re the “not yet vaccinated”?
It was such a shame when Sweden stopped doing Science and begun following The Science(tm). The list of NPI’s perfectly shows the politicians utter ignorance. None of them will work with a virus spreading by aerosol. This was a purely political reaction. Anders must be so disappointed but probably not surprised.
“Gotta be seen to be doing something”. Why?! All part of destroying a Control Group I assume.
It will never go away unless constant pressure is applied. Its probably scaled back due to other hidden motives
Sweden will be a Muslim country by the year 2050 so perhaps things will be different then. The immigrants are having more children than the native Swedes.
Off topic, but I was talking to a friend about a friend of a friend who’s a massive bedwetter (and prat). The bedwetters wife keeps on testing positive with the LFT, they reckon it’s because her nose bleeds after shoving a stick up her nose and the blood affects the result. Apparently even they are questioning the need to test.
is it still the same thing though .it appears ending restrictions only for the ” vaxxeds’?
or is this truly ending all restrictions . somehow am lacking complete trust in anything they spout the past 2 years
“…special recommendations for those who have not yet been vaccinated will remain”, though what these are and how binding they are is unclear….”
Let’s guess, shall we? And the word ”yet” is telling, as is ”recommendations”. Weasely or what?
Interesting? Make of it what you will.
