Bombshell testimony from Dr. Anthony Fauci earlier this year reveals he made up the six foot social distancing rule and other measures to ‘protect’ Americans from Covid. The Mail has helpfully compiled some highlights from that testimony ahead of further testimony from Fauci later today.
Kids’ learning loss and social setbacks have been well documented, with one National Institutes of Health (NIH) study calling the impact of mask use on students’ literacy and learning “very negative”.
And the impacts from social distancing caused “depression, generalised anxiety, acute stress, and intrusive thoughts”, another NIH study found.
Speaking to counsel on behalf of the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic earlier this year, Fauci told Republicans that the six foot social distancing rule “sort of just appeared” and that he did not recall how it came about.
“You know, I don’t recall. It sort of just appeared,” he said according to committee transcripts when pressed on how the rule came about.
He added he “was not aware of studies” that supported the social distancing, conceding that such studies “would be very difficult” to do.
In addition to not recalling any evidence supporting social distancing, Fauci also told the committee’s counsel that he didn’t remember reading anything to support that masking kids would prevent Covid.
“Do you recall reviewing any studies or data supporting masking for children?” he was asked.
“I might have,” he responded, before adding “but I don’t recall specifically that I did”.
The pandemic patriarch also testified that he had not followed any studies after the fact regarding the impacts that forced mask wearing had on children, of which there have been many.
And his answer was an ironic Covid-esque pun, “I still think that’s up in the air,” Fauci said about whether masking kids was a solid way to prevent transmission.
Further, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) told the counsel that he believes the lab leak theory – the idea that COVID began at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) – is a real “possibility”.
“I think people have made conspiracy aspects from it,” he said, adding “it could be a lab leak”.
“So I think that in and of itself isn’t inherently a conspiracy theory, but some people spin off things from that that are kind of crazy.“
His admission that COVID may have began at the WIV comes four years after he backed the publication of a paper which threw cold water on the lab leak theory called the ‘Proximal Origin’ paper.

Not to worry about the excess death we already have worldwide, no, let’s worry about the more important deaths to come from covid!
Go f yourself Teddy!
I’m sliding towards the end of the recovering phase of this. Initial symptoms became notable last Saturday. As usual, it was unpleasant (runny nose for days on end), somewhat painful (muscle pain) affected my ability work to some degree (1 3/4 hours completely lost due to fatigue/ exhaustion. generally somewhat reduced efficiency) but nothing really serious.
Suggestion to end this pandemic of WHO announcements: Ask the guy if he’s willing to stop while pointing out that he should consider this very carefully because he will have to bear the consequences. Strangle him if he answers No. Traditional method for getting rid of incompetent political advisors in the Ottoman Empire.
And waterboarding for anyone who tries to force anyone (especially kids) to wear masks again.
In 2019, nobody would have panicked if they fell ill for a week. Stay home, wrap up, take it easy. It’s how we work.
I will not do any different in 2023.
My brother just had covid really bad. He had to have a lie down for a couple of hours. Then my dad got it. He is 91, but just a sniffle for him.
Have you had any of the jabs RW?
No. But there’s no real reason for that beyond it didn’t seem worthwhile to spend time on getting an injection not even its proponents really considered to be useful for anything.
Ok. Just wondered as the few I know who didn’t get jabbed have only been ill once with Covid.
But I’m happy you avoided it.
Maybe these muppets should have held on to their perfectly good natural immune system instead of swapping it out for a pointless vaccine replacement!
Now, now Dinger.
We ‘swap.’ There is no requirement to embellish swap with the horrible added affectation of ‘out.’
They’re nudging. The Mail ran a front page fear article just the other day. It’s September and they’re already ramping up the fear. We’re heading for winter when colds and flu are entirely normal and you can see they’re desperate to bring back restrictions. I half wonder if they’re trying to goad people into civic violence in order to take down opposition to their totalitarian agenda. The communist Michie is at the root of this for sure.
They are testing the waters. But most people now have “herd immunity” to their BS now.
I hope you’re right. I’m dubious. Just the other day, someone I know woke up feeling a bit under the weather, ran straight to the chemist for an LF test and, of course, tested positive, causing havoc through out the company that person works for…
People put up with all this before. We saw how they turned into zealots last time. I can see unions and other organisations trying to force work-from-home and compulsory masking to help bring down the government.
I really f***ing hate the world right now and I’m in danger of turning into a misanthrope! I’ll end up being one of those mad, bearded old men living in the middle of nowhere, who waves a shotgun at anyone who comes within half a mile of his remote shack!!
I’m with you on that. I’m an extremely mad and annoyed old woman (and could well be bearded…). We live in a quiet rural community but I study Right Move closely for properties that are stand alone, preferably with a long driveway. A locked gate, a shotgun and some very large dogs would be a welcome addition. Who would of thought that would be my dream property and situation for my old age?
….a moat would be nice…try getting over that to read my smart fricken meter!! LOL!
Remotely switchable off by a phone signal
I bet that person got loads of sympathy for ‘suffering from covid’. No doubt many more weeks off for long covid (aka swinging the lead, taking the p15s, skiving)
How very brave /s
Perhaps I’ll buy a remote shack near to yours and we can take shifts on guard. I don’t have a shotgun though, but I could improvise some horrific man-traps.
If this happens all over again, God forbid, then there is little to no hope for humanity.
There will be zealots of course, but hopefully just a tiny sliver of the population now.
Why are people still taking these stupid f…ing tests? It’s beyond me. Totally agree with your last paragraph these numties are so depressing.
There was someone on a facebook group I’m in, panicking the other day because Tesco had run out of tests and what on earth were they supposed to do? They should still be free, covid hasn’t gone away, blah blah blah.
Daily Mail and Daily Telegraph seem to offer Covid fear and scepticism in equal measure.
Fortunately, most people with more than two brain cells are responding to this with a resounding (yawn).
Yes..I just don’t care what they say…..and by the look of the comments underneath the article neither does anybody else….!!
Personally I’m responding to it thinking about setting up a new political party to be called The Voters Union Party. This side of the pond the citizenry have become far too meek, misunderstand and don’t even consider their ancient rights and think the government are in charge. They are letting authoritarians take over with a kind of “no hum, I’m sure it won’t be as bad as all that” attitude.
The Voters Union Party will propose an open source, publicly owned technological voting solution that will make it possible to transparently lend your vote to a pressure group. For example, Toby Young would make a great pressure group president. The pressure group will be able to pick salient high priority issues and say to the government do x, y, z or we will take this block of votes away from you. That way politicians will be less able to ignore the priorities of the citizenry and will be able to see, if they fail to execute they will definitely be losing a big chunk of votes. At the moment the First Past the Post system means they are able to divide and conquer every vote with the threat; If you don’t vote for us the other lot will get in.
There will, quite rightly, be some scepticism/concerns about any technological voting solution, but I think if the system is set up using open source technology and transparent auditable ledgers, and the right processes, it will be possible to protect privacy, but still allow individuals to verify their vote has been correctly handled whilst providing assurance the system will detect fraud through statistical randomisation of vote verification. Part of the deal will be that after the event voters may be requested to verify the way they voted to auditors. They will have the choice to decline, but this should provide significant enough means to verify voting fraud is kept to a minimal “individual” level.
I’m thinking of voting for the party Kellie-Jay Keen is hoping to start, if she has a candidate in my area. Too many enemies, only one vote
Instead of listening to the WHO, most people are listening to The Who: “We won’t get fooled again!”
And “we’re not gonna take it”
And, for those of us old enough “why don’t you all f-f-f-fade away”
Hope I get old before I die…… or something like that.
Haha, classic! And an anthem for the unjabbed; ”Oh, I, oh I’m still alive…hey, I, oh I’m still alive!” Well I can’t not share the awesomeness now can I?

He sure plays a mean pinball.
Maybe I shouldn’t play this game
Has anyone seen this massive load of cock and bull yet? Haven’t read it all and haven’t delved into who funded the study or authors’ background etc but I smell scientific guff in the same way I’d smell a midden on a ‘global boiling’ day if I fell asleep atop it. Get a load of this;
”The results of this study offer support for the hypothesis that cognitive ability is a profound and direct determinant of COVID-19 vaccination. While it does not necessarily imply that the relationship is causal, we may at least confidently conclude that the relationship is not easily explained by family background, environment or socioeconomic factors.
Although cognitive ability is not directly observable by policy-makers, and while policies directly targeting individuals with certain levels of cognitive abilities may not be ethically or politically feasible, we have demonstrated that simplifying the vaccination decision through the use of pre-booked appointments was particularly effective in overcoming vaccination resistance and hesitancy among individuals with lower cognitive abilities.”
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0167629623000796
And another one. What the chuff is going on? I think it’s because the people who browbeat everyone to get jabbed is now feeling pretty stupid given all of the data which show they were wrong on every level, so they’re now projecting their annoyance with themselves and their own stupidity onto everyone who was too wise and intelligent to listen to their bollocks. Yeah *we’re* the stupid ones!
”Since vaccination adherence is crucial in reducing morbidity and mortality during a pandemic, we characterized the association between demographic, intelligence, and personal attributes and COVID-19 vaccination adherence among young adults.
MethodsCohort study including vaccination data of 185,061 personnel, collected during 13 months of COVID-19 vaccination campaign, while a wide array of vaccination incentives were offered. The effect of demographic data (age, gender and socioeconomic status), military medical fitness – fit for combat service, administrative service, or unfit (volunteering), general intelligence score (GIS) and military social score (MSS) assessing social abilities, on vaccine adherence (allocating by IMOH guidelines) was examined.
During a COVID-19 vaccination campaign, addressing vaccine hesitancy contributing factors and providing wide vaccine availability, GIS and physical fitness had the strongest association with vaccination adherence among young adults. When planning future vaccination campaigns, implementing these insights should be considered to improve adherence.”

It appears to be setting up The Unvaccinated as simpletons. According to them, their results imply less deaths and a shortened pandemic if everyone had been vaccinated.
Reading between the lines: if you’re not vaccinated you’re not capable of making the ‘correct’ decision so someone should make it for you.
Well it won’t make an iota of difference anyway because nobody regrets not taking it and that’s never going to change. Let them crack on with their meaningless BS and multi-pronged attacks. Those above studies carry precisely zero weight and have no impact anyway because who exactly is going to see them? It’s just bilge.
I think it’s far more ominous than that. They’re basically trying to show that anyone who refused the jab – whether the first or subsequent boosters – is in some way mentally incapacitated and thus can be forced by the docs to receive mandated medical treatment. I refer to Laurence Fox’s GB News piece on Friday 08/09 regarding the young lass who has been refused medical treatment, and the highly alarming judgement made by Mrs Justice Roberts. Despite two separate psychiatric assessments confirming her mental capacity, the judge overruled and in doing so set an awful precedent, saying:
In my judgement…ST [the young lass] is unable to make a decision for herself in relation to her future medical treatment…because she does not believe the information she has been given by her doctors [my emphasis]
Fox interviewed Professor David Jones, Director of the Anscombe Bioethics Centre, who noted that this decision was ‘very worrying‘ and asked ‘is the fact that you disagree with your doctors sufficient to say that you lack mental capacity?‘ (from about 11.30 – 12.20 min on vid)
So you can see what they’re trying to do here, with those articles and that decision. You won’t be able to refuse because refusal itself shows lack of mental capacity and thus they will force the decision on you regardless. Absolute, unadulterated uber-Orwellian medical tyranny, all at the behest of Big Pharma.

(ST story starts around 2.30, Justice Roberts’ decision at 5.48, Prof Jones segment from 10.20)
If this was
TwitterX, someone would undoubtedly make a tasteless joke to the effect of “of course those who regretted not taking it aren’t talking about it, because they are dead, gotcha!”, and perhaps an even more tasteless joke about the late rock star Meat Loaf in that regard. But as we are seeing with the persistently high excess death numbers, the joke is ultimately on the people saying it.It’s literally nothing more than their Branch Covidian cult version of the perennial “deathbed conversion” legend, combined with much jealousy and projection of course.
“cognitive ability is a profound and direct determinant of COVID-19 vaccination.”
Aye, for the terminally stupid
like one of my brother’s in law.
Last night as I warned him of the dangers of giving up cash and that CBDC’s were coming with all they entailed, he accused me of being a conspiracy theorist. Obviously I had to put him in his place and corrected him:
“I’m a conspiracy realist. You are a reality denier.” That shut the tw#t up.
It’s an inverse relationship whatever they imply.
Zing!
Thankfully I have no doubt about my cognitive abilities. I’m not perfect but I know roughly whereabouts I sit in the range between commonsense and unthinking-credulity.
It took some gumption to resist during those dark days but I’m so glad I didn’t succumb
We have been called brave for refusing the injections. To be honest I don’t consider my wilful intransigence brave. I did my research and knew the injections were a joke from the start.
“Vaccines” ordinarily take 10-15 years to get to market but these wonder drugs took six months and much evidence suggesting they were brewed up and ready before the Scamdemic so red flag one.
Red flag 2 – there was not any evidence of mass deaths which pretty much confirmed we were being had.
Red flag 3 – these junk products were being pushed intensively with even Bliar rolled out to promote them. When he stated that those refusing the injections were mad I knew my decisions were correct.
Always do the opposite to anything spewed by Bliar, it’s a safety guideline. In fact, so safe, it’s a life-saver.
So true.
“Always do the opposite to anything spewed by Bliar, it’s a safety guideline. In fact, so safe, it’s a life-saver.”
That was the case with Iraq, and also the case with all things Covid, especially the jabs.
And in fact there were more excess deaths AFTER the jabs than there were in 2020.
TL;DR version:
“It’s mostly the midwits who are willing to get jabbed. Both dimwits and geniuses are less likely to get jabbed voluntarily.”
I believe there was a meme about that. But the joke is ultimately on the jabbed, as those who willingly got it are now revealed as the dumb ones.
Anyone else noticed the increased grid pattern in the sky? Burning/scratchy sensation in the throat? Irritated skin? Cold symptoms? Generally feeling under the weather?
It’s jab season & GPs are being paid an extra £5 per injection. Got to ramp up the fear to drive folk into the GP surgeries…. Can’t have GPs losing income now can we??
Related to the ‘Sahara sand’ the MSM has reported is an analysis by a UK based chap with reference to other analytical studies so that he knows what he should find in this ‘Saharan sand’.

Geoengineering is yet another important subject which is ignored ATL as examining it would expose the nefarious actions of the parasite class aided & abetted by useful political stooges. Lifting the veil on this subject gives even more credence to the damage which Net Zero is doing, climate catastrophising & the transfer of wealth/property upwards.
“Geoengineering is yet another important subject which is ignored ATL”
Absolutely with you on that BB.
Summer: don’t go outside, the weather will kill you
Autumn: don’t go to school, falling concrete will kill you
Winter: don’t go outside, deadly viruses will kill you
Spring: don’t go anywhere, Putin might nuke you.
Meanwhile, message from cowering wfh laptop class to working class: keep delivering our stuff, peasants!
No surprise that our favourite hereditary millionairess Stalinist has been busy working on how to make population “adhere” to WHO vaccination campaigns – an interesting choice of word.
The multi-milliomnare communist Susan Michie?
Being rich isn’t a betrayal of the communist doctrine, she’s simply more equal than everyone else.
And, oh look, RAAC concrete ‘found’ at Gatwick and Heathrow, so no flying out of the country for you, prole: stay at home and take your medicine. Still think a rerun of the ‘concrete’ scare is pencilled in for hospitals maybe late autumn: and how about for multistorey carparks and shopping centres from, say, early December? Citizen, know your place: your Christmas celebrations are killing the planet.
Careful! Hasn’t Christianity (and hence Christmas) been labelled one of those white supremacist thingies, or some sort of transphobic hate speech wotsits? Need to check with Wokey Welby as I’m struggling to keep up with it all…
Ah yes, Welby…who thinks the EU is “the greatest dream realised for human beings since the fall of the Western Roman Empire”, let alone his unrepeatable comments on climate change (1930s Germany features, I recall). Probably already getting itchy fingers to lock up all the churches ASAP, because “it’s what Jesus would have wanted.” Anyone running a book on the first church to be closed ‘because concrete’?
These psychopathic megalomaniacs aren’t giving up, are they?
Why doesn’t he do us all a favour and F off, perhaps go and torture some more innocents in his own country, I heard he was very good at that.
Why does that Tedros bloke always look like a rather imbecilic drunk who’s been rudely awakened after sleeping off the excesses of the previous day in his office chair? I mean, what an absolute wreck the man looks.
I sort of hope that one of the deaths is him.
If this treaty does go through, I will refuse to follow any diktat originating from the corrupt WHO. If I’m arrested then I guess that’s what will happen.
As someone else said: fk u Ted.
There is something going round. My eldest son got it and was really run down for it. The rest of us got nothing but a brief sniffle or nothing. My eldest is the only one jabbed, so he could travel. His immune system is a disaster. Gets layed low by every cold. I haven’t been I’ll in two years. Hydroxy, Zinc and V C,D has worked well.
I suspect that those who had bad batches, about 5% to 10% of the population are going to get hit hard by this. Hospitalisations and deaths may well get quite bad. This time it may be indiscriminate and not age or comorbidity related.
So if young and middle aged people start getting really sick due to ADE, well they will try this all over again for sure and they will have the bodies to back it this time.
Hope I and Geert Van den Bosch are totally wrong.
Good post. I would offer that 100% of the vials of poison are ‘bad batches’. ADE works over time. You can die in 15 minutes or 15 years, depending on the quantity of neurotoxins in your bloodstream and the penetration of your organs. If you are strong, healthy with a good immune system, you might not notice anything for a long time. But the more you ingest the worse it gets. And of course by the time you are sick, another scariant is to blame. Or Klimat thingy. And the ‘only solution’ is yet more toxins.
Scratch the surface of zealotry, and you will always find jealousy lurking beneath the surface. They both come from the same Latin root word, after all.
Imagine how much different the world would have been if, on that fateful day of March 8, 2020, Italians simply gave Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte a good, hearty “Vaffunculo!” instead of going along with his Lombardy (and then national) lockdown that most of the world ended up mindlessly copying. Every country not named China, except maybe some of their immediate neighbors briefly perhaps, would most likely never have done so, and would have adopted the “flu strategy” instead. Death rates would likely have been lower in the long run. And this entire conversation would be academic for the most part.
Who?
The same politicians that would jail us for not installing a heat pump should not even be trusted to empty our wheelie bins. I feel sorry for the populations of the western world that see our countries overrun with illegal aliens with pretend to save the planet eco socialist governments squeezing every bit of prosperity out of us that they can in the phony climate war that has NOTHING to do with climate and the phony covid boll..ks.
teddy , have a shave & a wash
…. and iron your shirt and straighten your tie.
