stillnessinthestorm--2020-12-06--The COVID Case Con Continues, Positive Tests Are Not The Same as Case

( Brian C. Joondeph , M.D . )
As many Americans recover from their “ virtual Thanksgiving , ” sharing prayers and turkey across the internet , the media is pushing their November propaganda narrative , that Dementia Joe really won the presidential election and that COVID cases are once again surging across America .

Certainly not .
COVID is tested using PCR which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nose repeatedly until the test is positive .

Garbage in , garbage out .

The Washington Post claims that Wuhan coronavirus cases are “skyrocketing” while the New York Times wails that “It has hit us with a vengeance.” Yet the media is oblivious, either ignorantly or deliberately, to the reality that positive tests are not the same thing as cases.
A “case” has a very specific definition, apparently beyond the intellectual realm of Wolf Blitzer or Neil Cavuto. The CDC provides a specific “case definition.” A case is not just a positive test. Instead, what is needed is “presumptive laboratory evidence AND either clinical criteria OR epidemiologic evidence.” Notice the AND, meaning not simply a positive test.
The current COVID surges are positive tests, and even those are suspect, without regard to whether those who test positive are actually sick or not. I was curious about drive-by testing and last weekend gave it a whirl. It only took about 20 minutes and was free, meaning I got what I paid for. Results were promised within three days but took just over seven days to find out that I was virus free.
Given the sensitivity of the COVID PCR test, it is likely that some of those being tested, without any symptoms or exposure, will be reported as test positive and added to the case tickers running constantly on Fox News and CNN.
Saying someone with a positive COVID test is a “case” is fraudulent. For comparison, blood glucose has an upper test limit of 140. Is everyone above that number a diabetic? Even if they just ate a doughnut or ice cream cone before testing? Or does it take more than a single blood glucose level before one is diagnosed with diabetes?

Many Stoics believe that a universal order determines everything that occurs. In other words, everything that happens is meant to happen and is perfect in one way or another. Everything that has to happen, will happen. Many well-known great thinkers subscribed to the stoic philosophy, including Seneca.
The perfection these philosophers referred to isn’t the absence of mistakes, defects, or challenges. Instead, it’s the idea that everything fits together and everything has its place. Thus, there’s an internal logic to what often seem like random events.
“My formula for greatness in a human being is amor fati: that one wants nothing to be different, not forward, not backward, not in all eternity. Not merely bear what is necessary, still less conceal it- all idealism is mendaciousness in the face of what is necessary- but love it.” -Friedrich Nietzsche-
The Stoics agreed with Eastern philosophers and many different religions on this point. Everything that happens is perfect because it’s destiny. It isn’t necessarily a prewritten fate, but it’s determined by an infinite number of circumstances that come together to shape what happens around you.
Everything that happens is perfect
An entire set of circumstances determines your destiny from the moment you’re born. In fact, you don’t choose to be born nor do you choose your genetic makeup or your sex. All of those factors set you on a certain path from the get-go.
You can add to that the fact that you don’t choose your parents, your nationality, your social class, your extended family, or your immediate surroundings. Nor do you have any control over the historic context in which you’re born into. All of these hugely important elements of your life and your personality are out of your hands.
As if all that weren’t enough, your fate is also largely determined by where you are in the birth order and the physical and emotional state your parents were in when you came into the world, among other factors. Although it may feel like you shape your own personality, many random factors condition your upbringing. Stoics believe that all of this is perfect because the result is your unique life.
Acceptance
Obviously, many of the early events in your life that you could call “fate” are full of contradictions, challenges, and problems. However, each event has particularities that set you on a specific path that you have to follow. Everything that occurs after that is perfect because it develops the essence of who you are.
The mistake is assuming that there are universal paradigms or models for what it means to be human. There’s no “ideal” time to be born, no perfect parents, no circumstances that are immune to contradictions. If you cling to those unrealistic ideas, it’ll lead you to absurd nonconformity.
It’s absurd because there’s no use in rebelling and striving for the impossible. You can gripe and moan all you’d like, but you won’t change anything. In fact, the better you get at accepting your unique and exclusive reality, the less you’ll suffer. Otherwise, you’re like a carnation complaining about not being a rose. Silly and pointless.
Acceptance doesn’t mean resignation
Neither Seneca nor other Stoic philosophers believed that accepting your fate means resigning yourself to it or feeling bitter about your lot. That kind of attitude would only lead to helplessness. Instead, they advocate for an open-minded attitude. You should greet whatever happens with open arms because it’s exactly what’s supposed to happen. They encourage us to celebrate the mystery that makes each person unique in the world.
Within the Stoic philosophy, however, there’s some room for free will. It’s small, but it exists. It shows up in your life as the possibility of choosing one path or another or one action or another at different points in your life.
Stoics believe that accepting the universal order of things is possible when you stop complaining about the consequences of your actions. Instead, you have to approach them as a revelation. A sign that everything that happens is perfect.
Who you are and what you do with your life isn’t laudable if you only do the “right” thing. Everything has an intrinsic value because it’s the manifestation of a predesigned plan. Your job is to try to understand it, let it run its course, and gratefully accept what fate brings you.

What is our mission? Why do we post what we do?
Our mission here is to curate (share) articles and information that we feel is important for the evolution of consciousness. Most of that information is written or produced by other people and organizations, which means it does not represent our views or opinions as managing staff of Stillness in the Storm. Some of the content is written by one of our writers and is clearly marked accordingly. Just because we share a CNN story that speaks badly about the President doesn’t mean we’re promoting anti-POTUS views. We’re reporting on the fact as it was reported, and that this event is important for us to know so we can better contend with the challenges of gaining freedom and prosperity. Similarly, just because we share a pro/anti-[insert issue or topic] content, such as a pro-second amendment piece or an anti-military video doesn’t mean we endorse what is said. Again, information is shared on this site for the purpose of evolving consciousness. In our opinion, consciousness evolves through the process of accumulating knowledge of the truth and contemplating that knowledge to distill wisdom and improve life by discovering and incorporating holistic values. Thus, sharing information from many different sources, with many different perspectives is the best way to maximize evolution. What’s more, the mastery of mind and discernment doesn’t occur in a vacuum, it is much like the immune system, it needs regular exposure to new things to stay healthy and strong. If you have any questions as to our mission or methods please reach out to us at feedback@stillnessinthestorm.com.

stillnessinthestorm--2020-12-06--California Sheriff: I Won’t Enforce Gov. Gavin Newsom’s ‘Ridiculous’ COVID-19 Rules

( Jordan Davidson ) Riverside County , Calif. Sheriff Chad Bianco published a video on Friday saying he will not enforce California Gov .
Gavin Newsom ’ s latest lockdown orders that will devastate local hospitals , businesses , schools , and civil liberties .
Related And We Know — August 4th 2020 : Patriots STAND United Against Covid 19 Global OBEY Push ( Video ) These closures and stay-at-home orders are flat-out ridiculous , ” he added .
“ The metrics used for closures are unbelievably faulty and are not representative of true numbers , and are disastrous for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ department will not be coerced into threatening the livelihoods , safety , and security of local residents .
Instead , they will trust local citizens to protect themselves and others with “ common-sense ” precautions .
“ He is expecting us to arrest anyone violating these orders , cite them and take their money , close their businesses , make them stay in their homes , and take away their civil liberties , or he will punish all of us , ” Bianco said .

(Jordan Davidson) Riverside County, Calif. Sheriff Chad Bianco published a video on Friday saying he will not enforce California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s latest lockdown orders that will devastate local hospitals, businesses, schools, and civil liberties.

These closures and stay-at-home orders are flat-out ridiculous,” he added. “The metrics used for closures are unbelievably faulty and are not representative of true numbers, and are disastrous for Riverside County.”
Bianco said his police department will not be coerced into threatening the livelihoods, safety, and security of local residents. Instead, they will trust local citizens to protect themselves and others with “common-sense” precautions.
“He is expecting us to arrest anyone violating these orders, cite them and take their money, close their businesses, make them stay in their homes, and take away their civil liberties, or he will punish all of us,” Bianco said. “While the governor’s office and the state has threatened action against violators, the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department will not be blackmailed, bullied, or used as muscle against Riverside County residents in the enforcement of the governor’s orders.”
Bianco highlighted Newsom’s hypocrisy in constantly refusing to follow the same rules he is inflicting on Californians, as well as his threat to withhold funds from localities that don’t obey him while doing exactly the same thing to the federal government regarding enforcing immigration laws.
Newsom’s “dictatorial attitude toward California residents, while dining and luxury traveling, keeping his business open and sending his kids to in-person private schools is very telling about his attitude toward California residents, his feelings about the virus, and it is extremely hypocritical,” Bianco said, referring to the governor’s recent dinner at a fancy restaurant with a dozen other people right after prohibiting gatherings of more than three households for Californians.
The video responds to Newsom’s most recent order, announced Thursday, closing hair salons, banning indoor and outdoor dining at restaurants, and limiting retail capacities to 20 percent in areas if ICU bed capacity falls below 15 percent. Bianco said he believes “all jobs are essential to someone,” and that Newsom’s demands in the name of health will actually impede local hospitals’ ability to treat COVID patients and others.
“When the medical field is so split about this virus, it might be time to employ a little common sense,” he added. “Keeping money and support from our hospitals who are struggling with normal seasonal increases in patients, coupled with COVID-19 patients, is irresponsible.”
Bianco encouraged his community to continue to follow health guidelines such as practicing social distancing and wearing masks, saying he believed that Americans are responsible enough to gauge their own risks and take precautions to protect themselves and others. Newsom’s expectations, Bianco stated, do not resemble true leadership.
“Leaders do not threaten or attempt to intimidate or cause fear, bullies do, as has been our position from the beginning of this pandemic,” Bianco said.

At just one test per 100,000 of population, it did the lowest rate of testing in the industrial world, restricting tests to those with symptoms. It imposed the lowest “stringency” of government policy (as measured by one of the world’s most limited lockdowns, far less severe even than Sweden’s, with scant closing of schools, restriction of travel, or banning of gatherings and other events).
Yet Taiwan experienced only seven total deaths, the lowest level of per-capita deaths among all populous countries.
By comparison, the Diamond Princess cruise ship, with 3,700 aboard and in quarantine, registered 10 deaths. The cruise ship group was dominantly in the vulnerable group of over 70 years old. But Taiwan boasts a life expectancy of over 80 years and saw it increase by the usual annual rate in 2020.
To discuss such enigmas, I yesterday visited Jeffrey Tucker, the editorial director at AIER, the American Institute of Economic Research, and author of a superb new book on the crisis, Liberty or Lockdown.
Near me in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, AIER resides in a castle on a hill overlooking the town and the world.
Apart from the Discovery Institute in Seattle, which I co-founded with Bruce Chapman, AIER is increasingly my institutional home.
You may know Great Barrington through the Great Barrington Declaration from October 4 by Dr. Martin Kulldorff of Harvard, Dr. Sunetra Gupta of Oxford University, and Dr. Jay Bhattacharya of Stanford, all globally eminent authorities on epidemics and infectious diseases.
Signing their joint declaration were hundreds of other medical scholars from around the world and tens of thousands of lay people.
The declaration concluded:
Adopting measures to protect the vulnerable should be the central aim of public health responses to COVID-19… nursing homes should use staff with acquired immunity and perform frequent PCR testing of other staff and all visitors… Retired people living at home should have groceries and other essentials delivered… When possible, they should meet family members outside rather than inside. A comprehensive and detailed list of measures… is well within the scope and capability of public health professionals.
Those who are not vulnerable should immediately be allowed to resume life as normal. Simple hygiene measures, such as hand washing and staying home when sick should be practiced by everyone to reduce the herd immunity threshold. Schools and universities should be open for in-person teaching. Extracurricular activities, such as sports, should be resumed. Young low-risk adults should work normally, rather than from home. Restaurants and other businesses should open. Arts, music, sport and other cultural activities should resume. People who are more at risk may participate if they wish, while society as a whole enjoys the protection conferred upon the vulnerable by those who have built up herd immunity.
Amazingly, this common-sense statement aroused huge official resistance. Even the Town Council of Great Barrington itself indignantly disavowed any connection to it. The eminent epidemiologists were said to be part of a “death cult.” AIER was dismissed as a fringe operation.
Jeffrey Tucker points to the Taiwan story as crucial and revelatory. The basic facts are charted and analyzed by AIER scholar Amelia Janaskie. While most analysts explained Taiwan’s exemption from Covid by citing various foresighted government and public health policies, Janaskie concluded that government policy had almost nothing to do with it.

Sunetra Gupta believes that the huge growth of world population during the twentieth century was largely an effect of globalization imparting similar biological learning processes on human immune systems. For the first time in human history, viruses propagated everywhere. As a result, human immune systems everywhere were trained in suppressing them. Through the cosmopolitan spread of immune system learning, the world escaped a grim perennial cycle of devastating plagues and extinctions striking successively in unprepared localities.

Gupta comes from Calcutta, where viral threats are largely confined to the lowest castes, which gain herd immunity for the rest of Indian society to an unfathomable array of diseases.
Now public health experts and therapeutic states entertain the idea that they can fight disease by quarantining the healthy as new untouchables, locking down our economies, and summoning vaccines for every new threat. But viruses are an intrinsic part of the human biome. The only reason we populate the globe in billions is that our systems learned how to deal with them.
Sunetra Gupta now fears that we are forgetting the role of globalization and learning in the growth not just of world commerce but of the world’s population itself. The lockdowns and other anti-globalization and isolationist movements pose the threat of a new dark age for human immune systems and economies alike.
The ultimate scarcity is time. Contriving remedies for every disease is a fool’s errand that would doom the human race to an endless waste of time and resources in a whack-a-mole frenzy beating down diseases that always crop up in unexpected times and places.
But billions of human immune systems across the planet in an unfathomable process of biomic learning are constantly surveying the viral landscape. They are maintaining an eternal vigil against high entropy threats, while human minds uncover new economic opportunities in a spiral of human progress of globally interacting bodies and souls.
The best testimony to the success of these mutual learning processes is not only the amazing story of Taiwan. It is our very presence on the planet today, some 8 billion learning systems strong, distributed as widely as human minds and interacting everywhere to ensure the survival of learning and growth.
