The ‘Experts’ Are Still Pushing Mandates

by Ian Miller
24 May 2024 1:00 PM

We’re in the middle of 2024, and the ‘experts’ still won’t give up their ridiculous defence of Covid mandates.

By now, the evidence against the effectiveness of Covid policies and so-called ‘interventions’ is overwhelming. Mask mandates were a spectacular failure, with the most heavily masked populations often seeing worse results than cities, counties or countries with little to no masking.

Vaccine mandates and passports were an unmitigated disaster; coercion created mistrust, and resistance and in some cases may have led to unnecessary, damaging side effects.

School closures, as we have clearly learned, were a tremendous, world-changing disaster. And it was made all the more frustrating by the fact that we had examples across the globe showing that they weren’t needed.

None of that’s stopped those committed to maintaining the fantasy of Covid mandates from desperately seeking to validate their belief system. And that desperation just led to one of their most absurd claims yet.

Covid Social Distancing and Vaccines Saved 800,000 Lives, Don’t Ya Know?

Two researchers from formerly reputable institutions, the University of Colorado, Boulder and the University of California, Los Angeles, just recently published a paper claiming to have cracked the fantastical code on just how effective the social distancing, lockdowns, mask mandates and Covid vaccines were at saving lives during the pandemic.

And what do you know? They found that the policies they supported were tremendous, highly successful interventions! Who would have ever guessed?

According to the headline, they claim that: ‘Mitigating behaviour and vaccines saved around 800,000 American lives.’

How did they arrive at this awe-inspiring conclusion? With a model, of course!

Mechanism: Around 68% of Americans got vaccinated before first infection
First Covid infection much less dangerous after vaccination

Back of the envelope estimate of lives saved
Full structural model of epidemic with behaviour and vaccines

This is what we’re dealing with here; a model based on a “back-of-the-envelope” estimate of lives saved, with their esteemed educated guess as to how many Americans were vaccinated before becoming infected.

Well, ‘guessing’ might not be accurate… completely guessing is more like it. According to their methodology, they used serology data on the timing of infections and vaccinations, though, of course, without direct links between individuals who were infected and those who were vaccinated, there’s little we can learn from population-wide serology data.

Not to mention that to create their model on the benefits of vaccination, they examined data from just 30 states on “COVID-19 deaths by vaccination status”.

Serology data on timing of infections and vaccinations

30 states: COVID-19 deaths data by vaccination status

But as anyone with even a cursory knowledge of Covid data knows, this type of data is hopelessly corrupted.

Thanks to public health experts and their pharmaceutical company allies, most jurisdictions only count individuals as being vaccinated starting 14 days after their second dose. Those with just one dose are effectively viewed as ‘unvaccinated’ for purposes of data collection. This type of counting skews the reliability of deaths by vaccination status, as does the fact that there were mountains of mistakes made by public health administrators and jurisdictions regarding data collection throughout the pandemic.

But especially when it comes to deaths by vaccination status. Not to mention that the supposed efficacy of Covid vaccines is highly reliant on when the data were measured. Even the CDC’s own data in late 2023 effectively acknowledged that the original vaccination series had waned to reach zero efficacy.

Regardless, the poor methodology used to create this model is evidenced by one of their first examples of measuring combined and infection seroprevalence.

The blue dots in this photo represent “cumulative percent infected plus vaccinated without infection” while the red and yellow are “cumulative percent ever infected”.

First, these numbers rely on seroprevalence estimates, which while useful are hardly definitive. Secondly, the researchers apparently ignore that the percentage of infected skyrockets starting in late December 2020, accelerating significantly after the vaccines were introduced.

They also then suggest that behavioural modifications were responsible for saving nearly 800,000 lives because they delayed infections until after vaccination.

This though is nonsense.

The charts below use the blue line as the estimate of what would have resulted if behaviour had remained the same, with no vaccination. The red line is the actual course of the pandemic.

But these charts assume as a given that behaviour was responsible for lowering the curve of deaths in 2020 and early 2021, then use a faulty assumption of vaccine efficacy based on corrupted data from 30 states to suggest that there were hundreds of thousands of lives saved.

Their model relies on their assumptions being accurate when we know for a fact that they aren’t. How do we know? Because states and countries that did not have similar behavioural modifications often had better results.

They ignore this fact to create the model. Literally.

“Behavioural response had a lot in common across U.S. states,” they say. But we know that’s not true. People living in California, particularly in 2021 and 2022, had very different experiences than those living in Florida or Iowa. Mask mandates and vaccine passports continued in California and New York deep into 2022, while Florida banned vaccine passports and had virtually no masking by spring 2021.

They claim that behavioral modifications were responsible for “delaying deaths”, but there’s no evidence that that’s true since different areas with different responses often had similar results.

Somehow, they also then claim that people “would have gotten infected without protection of vaccines”, a nonsensical fantasy given we know that the vaccines provide zero protection against infection.

So they both credit behaviour with reducing infections and delaying deaths, based on nothing, but also credit vaccines with reducing infections, and thus deaths. Also based on nothing.

Their assumptions prove their results, a classic failure of modeling.

It also ignores the importance of more transmissible, less virulent variants. Omicron resulted in an explosion of infections, though with lower mortality rates. Testing also exploded in 2021 and 2022, meaning that more people could test positive and thus be counted as ‘Covid deaths’ without it being the underlying cause.

Of course, this also doesn’t account for the harms these policies caused: the increased deaths from lockdowns, despair and substance abuse and addiction, and the harms from increased obesity and learning loss, or physical abuse suffered by children no longer in schools.

This model is a farce; a politically motivated tool for media outlets to use to justify their advocacy and the activism of people like Fauci and organisations like the CDC. “Covid vaccines and masking and behaviour saved lives, because we assumed they did,” would be an accurate headline for the research paper.

Even though all the evidence suggests a much more complicated picture.

You’d think these efforts would have ended by now, given that we’ve reached the middle of May in 2024. But as long as there are researchers committed to upholding their ideological biases, we’ll continue seeing poorly reasoned, misleading publications.

And boy oh boy are there researchers committed to upholding their ideological biases, almost as if they’d put in place yet again the mandates for their next pandemic.

The younger royals can see what is coming down the road (well, their advisers can, anyway). The traditional base of ordinary, run of the mill Brits are thinning out and so Windsor. Inc. have decided to turn their backs on them and make a play for the next generation.

The next generation are woke, committed to fighting climate change and in a deep trance under the spell of the WEF, corporate bio tech oligarchy, who are actually a very natural ally of an entirely decorative, rent seeking monarchy.

Luckily for all of us, we are at a point in history where what Harry, William or Charles thinks is almost 100% inconsequential. I’d almost say they’re bordering on Tony Blair territory where their support for an issue probably has a negative effect.

How does it use ‘less carbon’ to track and chase a man who dropped a lolly wrapper 4 years ago, by using 4 thicko New Zealanders with walky talkies and a fossil-fuel burning van?
I had New Zealand on my list of places to visit a few years ago, but they are all beginning to look permanently stupid down there, and I don’t think there’s much point in flying all that way to be surrounded by a bunch of spastics.

Here’s a better video of life in that part of the world (I know it was posted a day or two ago, but it’s not bad):

I try to tell myself that they mean well and no not what they do but it doesn’t really help anymore. I don’t bear any of them any ill will I just wish I had the power to cast out the spell that has captured the minds of many. It has no particular bent except that the mainstream must be right because it is the mainstream. Although there have been encouraging trends in recent months with major mainstream news networks suffering huge audience losses. Maybe we just have to hang on a little bit longer and a tipping point will be reached.

Isn’t he just trying to get revenge for a tortured life under the spotlight of the media?

Given that he’s had to live his entire life including his childhood being constantly judged by everyone in a very public way, so he now wants all of us to be surveilled and judged for every tiny little action. The New Zealand holiday is just a way to get the scheme started.

In short, the guy had a very tough childhood and has grown up into a completely mental adult. My guess is that he needs to be institutionalised.

It’s the awareness that we are ruled by the least among us and we have no clear pathway out of this nightmare. They will rule by politics or mind control or by the dreadful power of the purse. And this time is harder to bear because of the lack of an alternative vision and a sense that the West has run out of gusto.

There are plenty of alternative visions, they just don’t get any coverage because the jackboot stamps on anything which is contrary to the narrative. You must know that.

You have to, in a certain way, have a bit of admiration (grudging of course) for the political class who can manage to undertake a global coup over their populations, in such a way that their populations don’t realise that they have been at war for the last 2 years with their own governments.

That is a tricky war to wage and it is even harder to fight back in an “invisible” war like that.

Once again, voodoo cultism masquerades as science, of course lockdown is part of green ideology, of course lockdown is mediaeval superstition, abandoned centuries ago as policy but revived by the mediaevalist philosophy of environmentalism.

“The uncontested absurdities of today are the accepted slogans of tomorrow. They come to be accepted by degrees, by dint of constant pressure on one side and constant retreat on the other – until one day when they are suddenly declared to be the country’s official ideology.”

I grew up in LA and spent most of my life there. No one who truly wants to live a “sustainable” existence would choose LA as a home. There is nothing sustainable about the LA lifestyle. Even LA’s water has to be brought in from hundreds of miles away (transforming the once verdant Owens Valley into a desert).

As Elon Musk pointed out when promoting his Boring Company scheme, just moving around from place to place in LA means sitting in traffic among hundreds of cars belching out carbon monoxide and other poisons.

There are arguments for frugality in terms of spiritual purificaton. St Francis saw his mission as an embrace of poverty not solely an attempt attempt at its alleviation.. I’m all for it if it comes from the heart in a genuine spirit of renunciation. But this is something entirely different. They got their hobby horse gift in 1992 and have been developing more and more devious ways to monetise it. As if these people are sadhus or renunciates, they are utterly soulless and fly around on private planes. It was all meat on the menu at the COP summit.
