Attorney General William Barr said some states are going too far in their enforcement of stay-at-home orders and the Justice Department may have to get involved to protect civil liberties.
Barr appeared on radio host Hugh Hewitt’s show Wednesday to discuss how these “burdensome” social distancing measures must be lifted now that America is passing the curve of coronavirus cases.
“These are unprecedented burdens on civil liberties right now, and the idea that you have to stay in your house is disturbingly close to house arrest,” Barr told Hewitt. “I’m not saying it wasn’t justified, I’m not saying some places it might be still justified. But it’s very onerous, as is shutting down your livelihood.”

newswars--2020-04-22--Norwegian Psychiatrist Claims Joe Biden is Suffering From “Dementia”

Norwegian psychiatrist Fred Heggen claims that Joe Biden is suffering from “ dementia ” and that his condition has worsened “ at galloping speed.

What if his condition worsens further over the next two-three months ?
” Heggen asked .
The psychiatrist asserts that Biden ’ s behavior at campaign events and debates over the past few moths , characterized by “ forgetfulness , mischief , confusions , gaffes , and aggression , ” is indicative of someone who is beginning to struggle to perform basic mental functions .
“ This is not scare propaganda on my part .
Everyone who has had experience with people with dementia knows that a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ particularly dramatic course , ” Heggen wrote .
The psychiatrist suggested that Biden ’ s campaign staff were aware of his limitations and that this is why he is only rarely presented for short speeches and is heavily screened from the public and the media .

Norwegian psychiatrist Fred Heggen claims that Joe Biden is suffering from “dementia” and that his condition has worsened “at galloping speed.”
In an opinion piece published by Nettavisen entitled ‘Why Democrats are rallying behind a possibly demented candidate?’, Heggen, who is also a medical director at the Lovisenberg Diaconal Hospital’s psychiatric clinic in Oslo, says the presidential candidate is suffering from obvious cognitive failure.
“Of course I may still judge him wrongly, but in my eyes he appears as a person who is already very affected by dementia. And the presidential election is still far ahead. What if his condition worsens further over the next two-three months?” Heggen asked.
The psychiatrist asserts that Biden’s behavior at campaign events and debates over the past few moths, characterized by “forgetfulness, mischief, confusions, gaffes, and aggression,” is indicative of someone who is beginning to struggle to perform basic mental functions.
“This is not scare propaganda on my part. Everyone who has had experience with people with dementia knows that a deterioration can come quickly and have a particularly dramatic course,” Heggen wrote.
The psychiatrist suggested that Biden’s campaign staff were aware of his limitations and that this is why he is only rarely presented for short speeches and is heavily screened from the public and the media.
Heggen opined that it was “madness” someone like Biden should be allowed to have “his finger on the nuclear button.”
Biden has made numerous gaffes in recent months, including when he told a crowd in South Carolina, he was “running for the United States Senate” and that if they don’t like him they can “vote for the other Biden.”
The former vice-president also infamously botched the the Declaration of Independence when he said, “All men and women created by — you know, you know, the thing.”

J from Laredo, Texas joins Owen Shroyer on Infowars’ War Room to describe his experience with tyrannical police that issued $4,000 tickets to him and his friends for washing their cars after curfew.
“There was a dad with his two teenage sons, one of them a senior in high school, and they gave them each a $4,000 fine. That’s $12,000 to one family,” J explained.
He continued to say the group were all following the city’s social distancing policies and they were all wearing masks.
However, the city’s curfew declares citizens cannot be out after 10:00 pm and the police decided to enforce the tyrannical law in this situation instead of issuing a warning.

In a new exclusive interview with UAE’s The National on Wednesday, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said the US is demanding of Beijing access to all major Chinese bio-research virology labs.
“We, collectively the world, still has not had access to the Chinese labs,” the top US diplomat said. Crucially, The National reports of the new statements:
“For the first time, he mentioned multiple labs beyond Wuhan’s Institute of Virology (WIV) that would be critical to access to determine the origin of the virus.”
Reiterating that the virus originated in China while calling into doubt the official WHO narrative and assertion that coronavirus originated in animals Pompeo further said:
“These labs in China, not just the WIV, there are multiple labs that where the Chinese Communist Party is working on various levels of pathogens,” Mr Pompeo told The National. “It is important that there would be a global effort that those people working with dangerous substances have the capability to prevent accidental release.”
The new statements will no doubt be taken as another Washington provocation in Beijing’s eyes, coming as speculation goes full mainstream that the deadly virus actually originated at either the Wuhan Institute of Virology (8 miles from the Wuhan wet market where cases first popped up last year) or the nearby Wuhan Center for Disease Control and Prevention (a mere 300 yards from the wet market).
Pompeo said US allies like Germany and Australia have voiced support to US administration efforts to get the bottom of it, and said further in the interview it “would be important to the question presented [determining the origin of the virus] and it’s important we get the answer, not just as a historical matter, but so we can prevent such a thing from happening again… it is time that there would be transparency and access so that the world can respond.”
Since last week the mainstream media, including CNN, began taking seriously outbreak origin theories centering on Wuhan’s high-level research labs. For example Gordon G. Chang is a columnist for The Daily Beast, a publication which elsewhere mocked “conspiracy theories” centered on an accidental or purposeful release:

“This is dangerous,” Pompo said, adding: “this is not political, you have to know the nature and the pathway that the virus took in order to save lives, and that didn’t happen, they were too slow.”

Symbolism observed in the 2012 Olympics opening ceremony appears to show eerie similarities to the current coronavirus pandemic , many on social media are claiming .
The elaborately choreographed ceremony during the 2012 Olympics in London featured dozens of nurses , hospital beds and patients , in what was billed as a celebration of the UK ’ s National Health Service .
One section of the routine featured nurses dancing and putting children to bed ahead of a dark sequence , narrated by Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling , where demons emerge along with many villains from English literature .

CHEOPS, a mission named after the iconic Egyptian pharaoh and commissioner of the big Giza pyramid, will zero in on previous observations of already known extrasolar planets.
Having gone through three months of tense testing for exceptional precision, ESA (European Space Agency) planet hunter CHEOPS, which stands for Characterising ExOPlanet Satellite, is ready to comb outer space for heavenly bodies outside – and far away from – our solar system, ESA said in a statement.
In March, the cutting-edge space telescope began looking at well-known star systems: for instance, the last two weeks were spent observing two stars that are known to host exoplanets.
Functioning in a way similar to NASA’s TESS spacecraft, and using the same transit method, CHEOPS will accurately identify gradual dimming in a star’s brightness, which translates into some unknown planet passing its star.
For the mission, ESA has been collaborating with Switzerland’s University of Bern and University of Geneva, with scientists having had to conduct the tests involved in the preparatory stage from home due to the COVID-19 lockdown.
“We were thrilled when we realised that all the systems worked as expected or even better than expected”, said CHEOPS Instrument Scientist Andrea Fortier from the University of Bern.
Routine science observations are expected to begin at the end of April, ESA officials said in the statement. The team specified that CHEOPS will hone in on known exoplanets to measure their sizes with unprecedented precision, while other exoplanet-targeting equipment like NASA’s Kepler Space Telescope and the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) were designed to scour space for planets around other stars.
CHEOPS – the Greek name of the ancient Egyptian pharaoh Khufu – “first needed to observe stars whose properties are well known, stars that are well-behaved — hand-picked to be very stable, with no signs of activity”, CHEOPS project scientist Kate Isaak said in the statement.

newswars--2020-04-22--If Face Masks Are Mandatory, Then It’s Time to End Mask Patents

President Trump is convening with governors to reopen the economy , which will likely mean some sort of compulsory face mask order .
Now is the time to seriously consider scrapping the patents on masks such as the N95 .
Government at all levels has severely overreacted to the COVID-19 pandemic , but at long last there is political will to at least pretend as though there should be some return to normalcy .
That , of course , doesn ’ t mean partisan politics is being set aside .
The governors of Connecticut , Delaware , New Jersey , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Island , all Democrats , have announced that they are forming a “ regional advisory council ” to come up with a plan to reopen their economies .
The same thing is being tried by West Coast Democratic governors in California , Oregon , and Washington .
However , the ultimate action taken will be a centralized one , Trump assures us , tweeting , “ a decision…will be made shortly !
” The clampdown on economic and civil liberties will be restructured , almost certainly with more relief to the former than @ @ @ @ @ @ @ any new national or regional policy will adopt is the condition that increased commerce requires mandatory mask wearing .
New York governor Andrew Cuomo , who polls evenly with Joe Biden as Democrats ’ top presidential pick , has ordered employers of operating businesses to supply employees with masks .
Such a policy across the nation would have to look more like how Los Angeles is doing it , sacrificing quality for quantity in masks .
There , shoppers must don face coverings in order to enter stores , but pulling a shirt @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
If masks are so important to public health , as some studies and Asian countries indicate , then the government ought to knock down every obstacle in the way of people buying and selling the best masks possible .
Patent law would be a good place to start .
Deterring innovation , it puts manufacturers at risk of litigation if they produce face masks that infringe on one of more than one thousand US patents that cover the N95 , 3M ’ s medical mask and the most prized respirator on the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ don ’ t want to be the jerk saying people shouldn ’ t do things to save people ’ s lives , ” but potential contractors “ should have eyes wide open , ” Washington lawyer Ranga Sudarshan of Covington & Burling , who argues intellectual property cases in the US Court of Federal Claims , told IndustryWeek .
Even as 3M admits that it can ’ t supply enough N95 masks at the current demand , the company has yet to release its patents royalty-free , even temporarily , to other market @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stands behind the force of government to protect its monopoly .
As Rothbard wrote in Man , Economy , and State , “ Patents prevent a man from using his invention even though all the property is his and he has not stolen the invention , either explicitly or implicitly , from the first inventor .
Patents , therefore , are grants of exclusive monopoly privilege by the State and are invasive of property rights on the market.
” Federal law may ostensibly protect against patent “ hoarding ” when it ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be produced for its purposes , but patent owners still can reap royalty payments from the contractors , according to IndustryWeek .
Now , removing the patent or its protections , just for a time , may not even be considered by those who put politics first .
It ’ s one thing when the TSA rolls back its ban on large bottles of hand sanitizer , or when governors relax border restrictions on nursing licenses .
Such welcome changes offer unaccountable bureaucracies to save face .
Undoing patents is far too costly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the market .
Consumers might begin to wonder , as did the late legal theorist Butler Shaffer , “ Were Leonardo ’ s or Gutenberg ’ s inventions , or the Egyptian pyramids , or the Roman aqueducts , rewarded by state-issued patents ?
” Are patents as we know them , government issued , necessary at all ?
Shaffer noted , “ Patents and copyrights inhibit the creative process by discouraging the exchange of information , ” adding that the patenting process is so prohibitively costly that it leaves the little inventor @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , which will keep the patent power in exchange for the invention .
It is unknowable how much further 3M or another innovator may have taken the N95 idea were it not for the patent monopoly .
As intellectual property expert Stephan Kinsella puts it , “ It is possible that companies would have an even greater incentive to innovate if they could not rely on a near twenty-year monopoly.
” In the meantime , seamsters are turning to GoFundMe to support their homemade mask donations , such as these or these .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ FaveCrafts.com are providing free DIY guidelines that will come in handy for those unable to find good masks in stores .
Entrepreneurship remains alive and well in America , but as demand grows or government mandates expand , the patent monopoly will inhibit what public policy ostensibly seeks : a healthy people and a healthy economy .

President Trump is convening with governors to reopen the economy, which will likely mean some sort of compulsory face mask order. Now is the time to seriously consider scrapping the patents on masks such as the N95.
Government at all levels has severely overreacted to the COVID-19 pandemic, but at long last there is political will to at least pretend as though there should be some return to normalcy. That, of course, doesn’t mean partisan politics is being set aside.
The governors of Connecticut, Delaware, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Rhode Island, all Democrats, have announced that they are forming a “regional advisory council” to come up with a plan to reopen their economies. The same thing is being tried by West Coast Democratic governors in California, Oregon, and Washington.
However, the ultimate action taken will be a centralized one, Trump assures us, tweeting, “a decision…will be made shortly!”
The clampdown on economic and civil liberties will be restructured, almost certainly with more relief to the former than the latter. One likely compromise that any new national or regional policy will adopt is the condition that increased commerce requires mandatory mask wearing.
New York governor Andrew Cuomo, who polls evenly with Joe Biden as Democrats’ top presidential pick, has ordered employers of operating businesses to supply employees with masks.
Such a policy across the nation would have to look more like how Los Angeles is doing it, sacrificing quality for quantity in masks. There, shoppers must don face coverings in order to enter stores, but pulling a shirt up over the mouth and nose suffices.
If masks are so important to public health, as some studies and Asian countries indicate, then the government ought to knock down every obstacle in the way of people buying and selling the best masks possible.
Patent law would be a good place to start.
Deterring innovation, it puts manufacturers at risk of litigation if they produce face masks that infringe on one of more than one thousand US patents that cover the N95, 3M’s medical mask and the most prized respirator on the market, IndustryWeek reported.
“I don’t want to be the jerk saying people shouldn’t do things to save people’s lives,” but potential contractors “should have eyes wide open,” Washington lawyer Ranga Sudarshan of Covington & Burling, who argues intellectual property cases in the US Court of Federal Claims, told IndustryWeek.
Even as 3M admits that it can’t supply enough N95 masks at the current demand, the company has yet to release its patents royalty-free, even temporarily, to other market producers. Effectively, the multinational conglomerate stands behind the force of government to protect its monopoly.
As Rothbard wrote in Man, Economy, and State, “Patents prevent a man from using his invention even though all the property is his and he has not stolen the invention, either explicitly or implicitly, from the first inventor. Patents, therefore, are grants of exclusive monopoly privilege by the State and are invasive of property rights on the market.”
Federal law may ostensibly protect against patent “hoarding” when it’s the government demanding that a protected item be produced for its purposes, but patent owners still can reap royalty payments from the contractors, according to IndustryWeek.
Now, removing the patent or its protections, just for a time, may not even be considered by those who put politics first.
It’s one thing when the TSA rolls back its ban on large bottles of hand sanitizer, or when governors relax border restrictions on nursing licenses. Such welcome changes offer unaccountable bureaucracies to save face.
Undoing patents is far too costly to those benefiting from monopolistic control on the market.
Consumers might begin to wonder, as did the late legal theorist Butler Shaffer, “Were Leonardo’s or Gutenberg’s inventions, or the Egyptian pyramids, or the Roman aqueducts, rewarded by state-issued patents?”
Are patents as we know them, government issued, necessary at all?
Shaffer noted, “Patents and copyrights inhibit the creative process by discouraging the exchange of information,” adding that the patenting process is so prohibitively costly that it leaves the little inventor at the mercy of the big corporation, which will keep the patent power in exchange for the invention.
It is unknowable how much further 3M or another innovator may have taken the N95 idea were it not for the patent monopoly.
As intellectual property expert Stephan Kinsella puts it, “It is possible that companies would have an even greater incentive to innovate if they could not rely on a near twenty-year monopoly.”
In the meantime, seamsters are turning to GoFundMe to support their homemade mask donations, such as these or these. Crafty hobby sites such as SewCanShe.com and FaveCrafts.com are providing free DIY guidelines that will come in handy for those unable to find good masks in stores.
Entrepreneurship remains alive and well in America, but as demand grows or government mandates expand, the patent monopoly will inhibit what public policy ostensibly seeks: a healthy people and a healthy economy.

Peter Schiff recently appeared on Newsmax The Income Generation with David Scranton to talk about the impacts of the coronavirus government shutdown on the economy .
The segment turned into a somewhat contentious debate about inflation .
Guest host Jeff Small insisted we aren ’ t going to see price inflation , despite the Federal Reserve creating trillions of dollars out of thin air .
Peter said Small ’ s ideas are divorced from economic reality .
The interview started off on a less contentious note .
Scranton pointed out that as of last week , nearly 22 million Americans @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rate is estimated at around 17 % and climbing .
So , what does this mean for the stock market and the economy ?
In a nutshell , both are in a lot of trouble .
“ Probably the economy even more so than the stock market because what the Federal Reserve is doing may artificially prop up the stock market , but they ’ re not going to have as much success with the real economy .
In fact , the reason the economy is so sick is not the coronavirus .

Small took issue with this line of thinking , saying that the Fed has been trying to create inflation for more than a decade .

“ That ’ s what ’ s being inflated is the money supply .
So , we ’ ve never seen the central bank create this much inflation in its history .

newswars--2020-04-22--Trump Tells Navy to ‘Shoot Down, Destroy’ Iranian Gunboats If They ‘Harass’ US Ships

US President Donald Trump announced via his Twitter that he has given the green light to the American Navy to attack and sink small Iranian military vessels if they start harassing US military ships .
The statement by POTUS comes several months after the two countries were on the verge of open hostilities after a US Air Force strike killed top Iranian general Qasem Soleimani while the latter was visiting Iraq on a diplomatic mission in January 2020 .
A spokesperson for the Iranian Armed Forces has responded to the president ’ s tweet by advising Washington to focus on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ outbreak instead .
The US Navy has complained on multiple occasions that so-called Iranian fast boats are approaching dangerously close to their destroyers and carriers patrolling the Persian Gulf region .
On 15 April , the American military reported that a group of 11 vessels from Iran ’ s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps ( IRGC ) Navy harassed US warships in the northern Persian Gulf .
“ The IRGC Navy vessels repeatedly crossed the bows and sterns of the US vessels at extremely close range and high speeds ” , a US Naval @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that some passed within 50 yards of the bow of the expeditionary mobile base vessel USS Lewis B.

The latest escalation happened after the US Air Force killed top Iranian general Qasem Soleimani in an airstrike in Iraq on 3 January 2020 .

In response to at least 7 US lawsuits being filed against the Chinese government, as well as the Wuhan Institute of Virology, over the spread of the coronavirus, the CCP said that ‘they will never happen’, and it is a ‘farce’ to believe that China will ever pay reparations.
Pointing in particular to the Missouri’s lawsuit, which is seeking up to $44 billion in reparations, China’s state-run Global Times responded calling it a case that will be “impossible to win” for the US state.
“This is completely a farce. Missouri is trying to hold China accountable for the COVID-19 pandemic in a US court, which is almost impossible to succeed,” the newspaper wrote.
“It should at least file a lawsuit in an international court and in accordance with international law, not the laws of the U.S.” the report continued.
“This will never happen,” the paper said of the lawsuit, going on to defend the Chinese government’s actions against coronavirus.

newswars--2020-04-23--Professor Warns Cancer Deaths Due to COVID Disruption Will Be Greater Than Deaths From Coronavirus

A professor at King ’ s College London has warned that there will be more excess cancer deaths over the next 5 years than the number of people who die from coronavirus in the UK due to the disruption caused by the coronavirus lockdown , which is preventing cancer victims from getting treatment .
Richard Sullivan , professor of cancer and global health and director of its Institute of Cancer Policy , said : “ The number of deaths due to the disruption of cancer services is likely to outweigh the number of deaths from the coronavirus itself over the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ avoiding hospitals , partly due to fear of coronavirus and partly due to the NHS implying that people should stay away so as not to burden doctors and nurses .
This means that routine cancer screenings have all but stopped and there will be a massive backlog once normality resumes .
“ The cessation and delay of cancer care will cause considerable avoidable suffering , ” said Sullivan .

A professor at King’s College London has warned that there will be more excess cancer deaths over the next 5 years than the number of people who die from coronavirus in the UK due to the disruption caused by the coronavirus lockdown, which is preventing cancer victims from getting treatment.
Richard Sullivan, professor of cancer and global health and director of its Institute of Cancer Policy, said: “The number of deaths due to the disruption of cancer services is likely to outweigh the number of deaths from the coronavirus itself over the next five years.”
Many people are avoiding hospitals, partly due to fear of coronavirus and partly due to the NHS implying that people should stay away so as not to burden doctors and nurses.
This means that routine cancer screenings have all but stopped and there will be a massive backlog once normality resumes.
“The cessation and delay of cancer care will cause considerable avoidable suffering,” said Sullivan. “Cancer screening services have stopped, which means we will miss our chance to catch many cancers when they are treatable and curable, such as cervical, bowel and breast.”
People didn’t suddenly stop getting cancer when the coronavirus outbreak started, but now they are not getting treatment.
One wonders what the point is in allowing such disruption in the name of saving lives, only to lose more lives to cancer in the long run.
“Some stroke and heart attack patients are routinely waiting more than two hours for an ambulance, while 2,300 cancer diagnoses are being missed each week because patients are not going to see their GP or because they are not being referred for urgent tests and scans at hospital,” reports the Daily Mail.

newswars--2020-04-23--The Facts That Prove That Almost Everyone Is Wrong About This Coronavirus Pandemic

When it comes to COVID-19 , most Americans seem to be gravitating toward one of two extremes .
Some are treating this pandemic like it is the end of the world , while many others are dismissing it as a “ nothingburger ” .
But the truth is somewhere in between .
Nobody can deny that lots of people are getting sick and lots of people are dying .
In fact , the U.S. death toll has doubled in a little over a week and it has now shot past the 47,000 mark .
And as this pandemic progresses , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ get sick and a lot more people are going to die , and this is going to be true whether the lockdowns continue or not .
The lockdowns were never going to stop COVID-19 , and anyone that believed that was just being delusional .
The only time a lockdown should be instituted is if a pandemic has gotten so bad in an area that hospitals are being absolutely overwhelmed , because if people can ’ t get treatment that is a factor that could potentially increase the overall death toll substantially .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ is not happening right now , and so in most of the nation the lockdowns should be immediately ended .
But won ’ t a lot more people start getting sick if that happens ?
Of course , and this is something that the “ nothingburger ” crowd doesn ’ t understand .
Lifting the lockdowns is going to cause the virus to cycle through our population at a much faster rate , and the numbers will get pretty ugly .
But as long as the medical system can handle it , lockdowns @ @ @ @ @ @ @ end of the world ” crowd does not understand is that when you are dealing with a virus that spreads as easily as this one , it is inevitable that most of the population will eventually become infected .
You can “ flatten the curve ” and delay the inevitable with lockdowns , but that also prolongs the pandemic .
In the end , roughly the same number of people will get sick and roughly the same number of people will die no matter how the pandemic is “ managed ” .
This @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has made a really big deal out of the fact that a study conducted in L.A. county discovered that about 4 percent of all residents had already developed COVID-19 antibodies , and they were trying to use that study to prove that this pandemic is not much of a threat at all .
Actually , it shows just the opposite .
This pandemic is not going to be over until herd immunity is achieved , and according to Johns Hopkins that does not happen until 70 to 90 percent of a population has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ some really quick math .
Let ’ s assume that the study conducted in L.A. County is representative of the nation as a whole and that approximately 4 percent of all Americans have now developed antibodies .
And let ’ s also assume that herd immunity for COVID-19 will be achieved when 80 percent of the total population has developed antibodies .
If 47,000 Americans have died at the current 4 percent level of exposure , that means that we could potentially be looking at an overall death toll of 940,000 once we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Does anyone in the “ nothingburger ” crowd want to try to claim that 940,000 dead Americans is not a big deal ?
I keep hearing people say that this virus “ is just like the flu ” , and that is absolutely absurd .
As Mike Adams of Natural News has pointed out , COVID-19 has killed more Americans in the last 17 days than the flu did in the last year… In the last 17 days , the Wuhan coronavirus has killed more Americans ( 35,087 ) than the regular flu @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for the last year ) .
It obliterates any last shred of the argument — still heard across the independent media — that the coronavirus is “ no worse than the flu.
” The coronavirus remains the No .
1 cause of death in America on a day-to-day basis , clocking in at 2,804 deaths just today .
Total deaths in the USA will exceed 46,000 tomorrow , confirming our earlier projection that estimated 46,000 to 93,000 deaths from coronavirus in the USA by the end of July .
It ’ s not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we ’ re already beyond 45,000 .
( At the time we made the projection , it was dismissed as “ crazy ” by the very same people who still claim the coronavirus is “ no worse than the flu.
” Those are the people who can ’ t do math . )
And actually the number of Americans dying from the coronavirus is being seriously undercounted .
In New York City , if someone dies at home they are typically not tested to see if they have the coronavirus .
So even @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at home is now nearly ten times higher than normal , the vast majority of those cases are never showing up in the official numbers .
But the “ end of the world ” crowd seems to think that if we just keep everyone at home long enough that we can significantly reduce the final death toll from this pandemic , and that just isn ’ t accurate either .
Right now , the virus continues to spread even though most of the U.S. has now been locked down for weeks .
In @ @ @ @ @ @ @ confirmed cases during the 24 hour period that just ended .
Whether it does it relatively quickly or relatively slowly , this virus will continue to rip through our population until we eventually get to the point of herd immunity .
“ Experts ” such as Bill Gates are suggesting that the lockdowns are “ buying us time ” until our scientists can develop a “ vaccine ” , but the truth is that is really not much more than a pipe dream .
As I pointed out yesterday , there has never @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in all of human history , and now that scientists have discovered approximately 30 different strains of the virus that will just make the task of trying to develop a vaccine even more complicated .
Sadly , the reality of the matter is that this virus is going to be with us for a very long time to come .
Eventually herd immunity will hopefully be achieved , but until then a lot of people are going to get sick and a lot of people are going to die .
And fear of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ us for a long time to come as well , and that is going to paralyze our economy whether there are lockdowns or not .
The bottom line is that this virus is not going to be stopped , and the economic collapse that has now begun is not going to be stopped either .
But this isn ’ t the end of the world , and most of us will get through this .
Of course even bigger challenges lie beyond the end of this pandemic , but that is a topic @ @ @ @ @ @ @ moment , COVID-19 has killed more than 184,000 people around the globe , and by the end of this pandemic the overall death toll is likely to be much , much higher than that .
There is no way that you can possibly call that a “ nothingburger ” , and sticking your head in the sand is not going to help anything .
But on the other hand , trying to lock down the entire planet is not going to solve this crisis either .
It will simply delay the inevitable , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ continue to spread no matter what actions our politicians take .

When it comes to COVID-19, most Americans seem to be gravitating toward one of two extremes.
Some are treating this pandemic like it is the end of the world, while many others are dismissing it as a “nothingburger”. But the truth is somewhere in between.
Nobody can deny that lots of people are getting sick and lots of people are dying. In fact, the U.S. death toll has doubled in a little over a week and it has now shot past the 47,000 mark.
And as this pandemic progresses, a lot more people are going to get sick and a lot more people are going to die, and this is going to be true whether the lockdowns continue or not.
The lockdowns were never going to stop COVID-19, and anyone that believed that was just being delusional.
Full interview with financial historian Jason Burack
The only time a lockdown should be instituted is if a pandemic has gotten so bad in an area that hospitals are being absolutely overwhelmed, because if people can’t get treatment that is a factor that could potentially increase the overall death toll substantially.
In most of the United States that is not happening right now, and so in most of the nation the lockdowns should be immediately ended.
But won’t a lot more people start getting sick if that happens?
Of course, and this is something that the “nothingburger” crowd doesn’t understand. Lifting the lockdowns is going to cause the virus to cycle through our population at a much faster rate, and the numbers will get pretty ugly. But as long as the medical system can handle it, lockdowns are not necessary.
What “the end of the world” crowd does not understand is that when you are dealing with a virus that spreads as easily as this one, it is inevitable that most of the population will eventually become infected. You can “flatten the curve” and delay the inevitable with lockdowns, but that also prolongs the pandemic. In the end, roughly the same number of people will get sick and roughly the same number of people will die no matter how the pandemic is “managed”.
This week, the “nothingburger” crowd has made a really big deal out of the fact that a study conducted in L.A. county discovered that about 4 percent of all residents had already developed COVID-19 antibodies, and they were trying to use that study to prove that this pandemic is not much of a threat at all.
Actually, it shows just the opposite.
This pandemic is not going to be over until herd immunity is achieved, and according to Johns Hopkins that does not happen until 70 to 90 percent of a population has developed immunity…
When most of a population is immune to an infectious disease, this provides indirect protection—or herd immunity (also called herd protection)—to those who are not immune to the disease. For example, if 80% of a population is immune to a virus, four out of every five people who encounter someone with the disease won’t get sick (and won’t spread the disease any further). In this way, the spread of infectious diseases is kept under control. Depending how contagious an infection is, usually 70% to 90% of a population needs immunity to achieve herd immunity.
So let’s do some really quick math.
Let’s assume that the study conducted in L.A. County is representative of the nation as a whole and that approximately 4 percent of all Americans have now developed antibodies.
And let’s also assume that herd immunity for COVID-19 will be achieved when 80 percent of the total population has developed antibodies.
If 47,000 Americans have died at the current 4 percent level of exposure, that means that we could potentially be looking at an overall death toll of 940,000 once we hit an 80 percent exposure level.
Does anyone in the “nothingburger” crowd want to try to claim that 940,000 dead Americans is not a big deal?
I keep hearing people say that this virus “is just like the flu”, and that is absolutely absurd. As Mike Adams of Natural News has pointed out, COVID-19 has killed more Americans in the last 17 days than the flu did in the last year…
In the last 17 days, the Wuhan coronavirus has killed more Americans (35,087) than the regular flu kills in an entire year (34,157 for the last year). It obliterates any last shred of the argument — still heard across the independent media — that the coronavirus is “no worse than the flu.” The coronavirus remains the No. 1 cause of death in America on a day-to-day basis, clocking in at 2,804 deaths just today. Total deaths in the USA will exceed 46,000 tomorrow, confirming our earlier projection that estimated 46,000 to 93,000 deaths from coronavirus in the USA by the end of July. It’s not even the end of April, and we’re already beyond 45,000. (At the time we made the projection, it was dismissed as “crazy” by the very same people who still claim the coronavirus is “no worse than the flu.” Those are the people who can’t do math.)
And actually the number of Americans dying from the coronavirus is being seriously undercounted.
In New York City, if someone dies at home they are typically not tested to see if they have the coronavirus. So even though the number of city residents dying at home is now nearly ten times higher than normal, the vast majority of those cases are never showing up in the official numbers.
But the “end of the world” crowd seems to think that if we just keep everyone at home long enough that we can significantly reduce the final death toll from this pandemic, and that just isn’t accurate either.
Right now, the virus continues to spread even though most of the U.S. has now been locked down for weeks. In fact, there were nearly 30,000 more confirmed cases during the 24 hour period that just ended. Whether it does it relatively quickly or relatively slowly, this virus will continue to rip through our population until we eventually get to the point of herd immunity.
“Experts” such as Bill Gates are suggesting that the lockdowns are “buying us time” until our scientists can develop a “vaccine”, but the truth is that is really not much more than a pipe dream.
As I pointed out yesterday, there has never been a successful vaccine for any coronavirus in all of human history, and now that scientists have discovered approximately 30 different strains of the virus that will just make the task of trying to develop a vaccine even more complicated.
Sadly, the reality of the matter is that this virus is going to be with us for a very long time to come. Eventually herd immunity will hopefully be achieved, but until then a lot of people are going to get sick and a lot of people are going to die.

The bottom line is that this virus is not going to be stopped, and the economic collapse that has now begun is not going to be stopped either.
But this isn’t the end of the world, and most of us will get through this. Of course even bigger challenges lie beyond the end of this pandemic, but that is a topic for another article.
As of this moment, COVID-19 has killed more than 184,000 people around the globe, and by the end of this pandemic the overall death toll is likely to be much, much higher than that.
There is no way that you can possibly call that a “nothingburger”, and sticking your head in the sand is not going to help anything. But on the other hand, trying to lock down the entire planet is not going to solve this crisis either. It will simply delay the inevitable, because this virus is just going to continue to spread no matter what actions our politicians take.


newswars--2020-04-23--White House Trade Adviser: ‘China Spawned The Virus In A Lab’

As evidence mounts , investigations take hold , and lawsuits are filed against China over the apparent lab based origin of the coronavirus , another prominent voice has leant his weight to the matter in the form of White House Trade Adviser Peter Navarro .
Appearing on Fox News Channel ’ s “ Hannity , ” Navarro stated clearly that he believes the US intelligence position that the virus was leaked from a Chinese lab , and that the communist state fed a pack of lies to the World Health Organization ( WHO ) .
“ They spawned the virus @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there in China , ” Navarro urged “ And then they hid the virus behind the shield of the World Health Organization.
” he added .
“ And Sean , what that did over a six-week period is allow hundreds of thousands of Wuhanians , basically , to get on aircraft and seed the world.
” Navarro continued .
Navarro also noted that China stockpiled PPE supplies in order to ‘ profiteer ’ from the crisis , as well as “ sending us counterfeit tests.
” Navarro echoed comments he made earlier in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is that the ground zero for this virus was within a few miles of that lab .
If you simply do an Occam ’ s razor approach , that the simplest explanation is probably the most likely , I think it ’ s incumbent on China to prove that it wasn ’ t that lab .
So that ’ s number one.

Navarro previously warned the White House in internal memos in January and February , that mass death and economic but down could result from a pandemic .

Appearing on Fox News Channel’s “Hannity,” Navarro stated clearly that he believes the US intelligence position that the virus was leaked from a Chinese lab, and that the communist state fed a pack of lies to the World Health Organization (WHO).

Navarro echoed comments he made earlier in the week:
“What we know is that the ground zero for this virus was within a few miles of that lab. If you simply do an Occam’s razor approach, that the simplest explanation is probably the most likely, I think it’s incumbent on China to prove that it wasn’t that lab. So that’s number one.” Navarro said.
Navarro previously warned the White House in internal memos in January and February, that mass death and economic but down could result from a pandemic. President Trump has said that he did not see the memos:
