“The daily death count has morphed into the daily “new case” count, as 100,000 tests a day have exploded into 700,000 tests. Is it a wonder cases are increasing? But what they don’t dare mention is that deaths and even the death rate continue to decline. In fact the CDC warns that Covid is at the stage where it cannot even be classified an epidemic due to declining deaths. Still, more masks are required and petty dictators all around are calling for a return to lockdown. Can the truth ever be heard above all the lies?
For months, the Washington Post and the rest of the mainstream media kept a morbid Covid-19 “death count” on their front pages and at the top of their news broadcasts. The coronavirus outbreak was all about the number of dead. The narrative was intended to boost governors like Cuomo in New York and Whitmer in Michigan, who turned their states authoritarian under the false notion that destroying people’s jobs, freedom, and lives would somehow keep a virus from doing what viruses always do: spread through a population until eventually losing strength and dying out.
The “death count” was always the headline.
But then all of a sudden early in June the mainstream media did a George Orwell and lectured us that it is all about “cases” and has always been all about “cases.” Death, and especially infection fatality rate, were irrelevant. Why? Because from the peak in April, deaths had decreased by 90 percent and were continuing to crash. That was not terrifying enough so the media pretended this good news did not exist.
“In 1968-69, 100,000 Americans died from the flu that year. That’s equivalent today to 165,000 Americans. Nothing closed down. … We didn’t have a 24/7, lying, hysterical thing called media.” – Dennis Prager (source)
How Big Pharma lies: the *actual data* shows asymptomatic people don’t spread covid, what she originally stated. To backpedal, Kerkhove says the *models* (not actual data) say asymptomatic people, people who have no symptoms can spread covid — to justify social distancing until the dangerous $vaccine that may not work comes out.
Is it rare for asymptomatic carriers to spread covid-19 or not? Should we wear masks or do they do nothing? This week the W.H.O. goes back and forth on recommendations AGAIN!Del breaks down Maria Van Kerkhove’s backpedaling comments during a press conference. WHO can we trust at this point?#WHO#LOCKDOWN#FLIPFLOP#CONFUSION
Much of the BLM movement is based on complete deceptions, like this one, pushed by Al Sharpton, etc..
Filmmaker Joel Gilbert exposes the Trayvon Martin shooting’s key witness as a fraud and reveals the shocking true story – Filmmaker Joel Gilbert uncovers the true story of the shooting of Trayvon Martin that divided America. By examining his 750-page phone records, Gilbert discovers the key witness in the trial of George Zimmerman, Rachel Jeantel, was a fraud. Gilbert locates Trayvon’s real girlfriend, Diamond Eugene, who actually was on the phone with Trayvon in his final minutes, and exposes the epic hoax.
Joel Gilbert makes these points in a 6/8/20 Jeff Rense interview:
Rachel Jeantel was the key witness purported to have heard the scuffle over the phone. Prosecutors used her testimony to bring the case to trial, because otherwise it was clearly self-defense. Trayvon was killing Zimmerman. Diamond Eugene was Trayvon’s real girlfriend, who was on the phone. She refused to lie for the prosecutors. Gilbert proves Jeantel lied in the trial, and wasn’t Trayvon’s girlfriend at all.
The Michael Brown case, for which BLM burned Ferguson for, was also based on a lie, and was clearly also self-defense.
The Ahmaud Arbury case in Georgia was also self-defense. Arbury punched a white guy who was legally open carrying a gun, and tried to take it from him.
Big Pharma rejected the use of hydroxychloroquine to treat covid in thousands who then died on ventilators because of two faulty studies written by a bogus, 6-person company for the prestigious journals “Lancet” and “New England Journal of Medicine!” One employee was a sci-fi writer, and another an adult-content model!
Big Pharma has successfully scared millions away from the inexpensive and safe HCQ + zinc cure by falsely claiming HCQ is dangerous and ineffective, based on these erroneous studies, which the vast majority of people will never learn are erroneous, probably on purpose, so they can justify the murder (see “Perspectives on the Pandemic | The (Undercover) Epicenter Nurse“) of thousands of covid patients on their 88%-die ventilators, that they get $39,000 per patient for using, and so they can push their dangerous vaccine that may not even work.

Surgisphere: governments and WHO changed Covid-19 policy based on suspect data from tiny US company
Surgisphere, whose employees appear to include a sci-fi writer and adult content model, provided database behind Lancet and New England Journal of Medicine hydroxychloroquine studies
The World Health Organization and a number of national governments have changed their Covid-19 policies and treatments on the basis of flawed data from a little-known US healthcare analytics company, also calling into question the integrity of key studies published in some of the world’s most prestigious medical journals.
A Guardian investigation can reveal the US-based company Surgisphere, whose handful of employees appear to include a science fiction writer and an adult-content model, has provided data for multiple studies on Covid-19 co-authored by its chief executive, but has so far failed to adequately explain its data or methodology.
Two of the world’s leading medical journals – the Lancet and the New England Journal of Medicine – published studies based on Surgisphere data. The studies were co-authored by the firm’s chief executive, Sapan Desai. …
The Guardian’s investigation has found:
A search of publicly available material suggests several of Surgisphere’s employees have little or no data or scientific background. An employee listed as a science editor appears to be a science fiction author and fantasy artist whose professional profile suggests writing is her fulltime job. Another employee listed as a marketing executive is an adult model and events hostess, who also acts in videos for organisations.
The company’s LinkedIn page has fewer than 100 followers and last week listed just six employees. This was changed to three employees as of Wednesday.
4:25 “There are a number of medical concerns related to covid that are completely ignored by this, that put African-Americans at greater risk, and that are not being addressed by the very health professionals that say they care about saving black people’s lives. For example, vitamin D deficiency is common in … elderly people in nursing homes and African-American communities, who are historically deficient in vitamin D. And it affects your immune system … how sick you get with this virus and your survivability.” – Lara Logan

Health “Experts” Still Want Lockdowns Yet Support BLM Protests, Tucker Carlson & Lara Logan React
There is ZERO conclusive evidence provided by the CDC that supports healthy or “asymptomatic” individuals wearing a mask prevents the spread of illness.
Funeral directors are seeing this phenomenon as well as medical examiners. Dan McGraw, president of Gill Brothers Funeral and Cremation in Minnesota, recently complained about the fact that almost all the deaths he deals with are being certified as the result of COVID-19, including those who died of cancer in hospice. …
Last week, the local Fox affiliate in Alaska reported that there are some serious questions about the tenth coronavirus death reported by the state. 90-year-old Donald VanBuren lived alone and was reported to have died of the virus, but neighbors who took care of him assert that he died of cancer and kidney failure.
Horowitz: The coronavirus death rate has been inflated all over the country
Covid didn’t kill many who are reported to have died from covid.
Artificially inflating “covid” death numbers!
Many “covid” deaths were not caused by covid, because of the new, unprecedented guidelines that Dr. Scott Jensen famously blew the whistle on. And hospitals get $13,000 for each death they call “covid” from Medicare.
Flu deaths have been treated differently. People who died with flu, but not of flu were not called “flu” deaths.
Dr. Ngozi Enzike, Director of the Illinois Department of Public Health, at an April 19, 2020 press conference with Governor JB Pritzker, explains how the State of Illinois defines a Covid-19 death.
“I just want to be clear in terms of the definition of people dying of covid. The case definition is very simplistic. It means at the time of death, it was a covid positive diagnosis. That means that if you were in hospice and had already been givena few weeks to live, and then you were also found to have covid, that would be counted as a covid death. It means that if technically, even if you died of a clear alternate cause but you had covid at the same time, it’s still listed as a covid death. So everyone who’s listed as a covid death doesn’t mean that that was the cause of the death, but they had covid at the time of death. I hope that’s helpful.”
Liz Wheeler: “You say the economic devastation from the lockdown is worth it if it saves even one life, but you ignore the lives that will be lost thanks to the lockdown — from suicide, drug overdose and despair, abuse, starvation, economic devastation, or medical treatments delayed and surgeries cancelled.”
Fauci should tell people the truth about getting enough sun (instead of covering faces with masks) or taking vitamin D3, which cuts the danger of covid drastically, and then he should resign. He’s a disgrace. Big Pharma’s liar in chief!
Big Pharma is Satanic! They completely reject the vitamin C+D treatment that has excellent success with no adverse side effects. They rigged the hydroxychloroquine studies to fail by not using zinc. Now they fast-track a drug costing 50 times more using Fauci’s own rigged study, as Del shows here!
Chloroquine (and HCQ, its derivative) is one of the most prescribed drugs in history. It has been for over 70 years and the incident rate of concerning reactions has been practically negligible according to the medical community.
From the American College of Cardiology: “Several hundred million courses of chloroquine have been used worldwide making it one of the most widely used drugs in history, without reports of arrhythmic death under Word Health Organization surveillance.”
Why is chloroquine/HCQ suddenly being so demonized, apparently unjustly?
[NOTE: Joel Skousen does not recommend going to a doctor while having Covid-19 because they’ll lock you down. You lose all rights. It’s better to take natural remedies outside of the hospital.]
The numbers are in on the great Covid-19 pandemic . . . but unfortunately those numbers are unreliable. From mendacious models and puffed-up projections to dodgy death data and tainted tests, today on The Corbett Report James highlights what the accredited scientists and award-winning researchers are saying about the pandemic pandemonium of 2020.
In 1976, the US government declared that everyone should take a vaccine to stop a national pandemic from the Swine flu. At that time, the US had a population of 218-million people, and 46-million took the vaccine. Four-thousand were injured by the vaccine and filed lawsuits for-$3.5 billion. Most of the claims were for neurological damage and death. According to 60 Minutes, the vaccine was never even tested, although the media propaganda proclaimed that it was safe and effective – and necessary to prevent the spread of a pandemic that never was. -GEG
Dr. Scott Jensen, a Minnesota family physician who is also a Republican state senator, told “The Ingraham Angle” Wednesday that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) guidelines for doctors to certify whether a patient has died of coronavirus are “ridiculous” and could be misleading the public. …
“The idea that we are going to allow people to massage and sort of game the numbers is a real issue….
Jensen gave a hypothetical example of a patient who died while suffering from influenza. If the patient was elderly and had symptoms like fever and cough a few days before passing away, the doctor explained, he would have listed “respiratory arrest” as the primary cause of death.
“I’ve never been encouraged to [notate ‘influenza’],” he said. “I would probably write ‘respiratory arrest’ to be the top line, and the underlying cause of this disease would be pneumonia … I might well put emphysema or congestive heart failure, but I would never put influenza down as the underlying cause of death and yet that’s what we are being asked to do here.”
“I’ve been warning for the past few weeks: take a look at the numbers from the W.H.O., and in an “apples to apples” comparison, the Coronavirus has HALF the mortality rate of the seasonal flu when it comes to “death to confirmed cases” ratio. #coronavirus
