In a column we ran yesterday, 21stCenturyWire’s Patrick Henningson argues that Sweden has already “won the policy debate” on how to best tackle the coronavirus. Many epidemiologists have argued that comparatively successful testing regimes might obviate the need for lockdowns, though Sweden’s testing has been far less comprehensive than many might expect.
But in a research note published Monday, a team of analysts at Goldman Sachs confronts the question of whether Sweden is truly a viable model for other EU member states – and particularly the “EMU-4” – Italy, Spain, France and Germany.
In the report, the team concludes that unfortunately, Sweden’s approach likely can’t be easily replicated by the rest of the world.

Sweden has imposed significantly less strict measures to curb the spread of the coronavirus compared with other major European economies (left panel, Exhibit 1). While legal factors might have played a role – the Swedish constitution does not allow for a state of emergency in peacetime – the Swedish government has put the emphasis on citizens’ self-responsibility.
Although gatherings of more than 50 people are banned and distance learning in high schools has been introduced, these measures are much less stringent than elsewhere in Europe.
Some commentators have suggested that Sweden is aiming for herd immunity, although this is not official government policy. As a result of the less stringent measures, high-frequency proxies suggest activity in Sweden has slowed by less than in other economies in Europe.
This also is true when looking at Norway and Denmark, which are more similar in nature to Sweden in terms of demographics and economy.

Wendy’s restaurant has taken burgers off the menu in some locations and grocery stores Costco and Kroger have announced limited stocks of beef as Americans start to feel the impact of the pandemic-triggered meat shortage.
On Monday angry customers realized the Wendy’s hallmark item was no longer available for order and only chicken items were available for takeout and delivery at select locations across the country.
‘Where’s the beef?’ some outraged social media users asked, invoking Wendy’s catchphrase from 1980s.
It’s a shocking decision for Wendy’s, which established itself as the first fast-food chain to offer fresh ‘never frozen’ beef, and it’s an eerie foreshadowing for what’s to come at restaurants across the country.
Outbreaks of the virus at meat packing plants across the country have led slaughterhouses to shutter, farms to kill off animals they can no longer feed, store shelves to empty, and now restaurants to alter their menus.

by Finn Andreen via The Mises Institute , ZeroHedge.com Tue , 05/05/2020 An economic cataclysm has been unleashed upon the world by Western politicians and bureaucrats .
Unbelievably , economic activity in the West has slowed to a creep , as entire populations have been confined to their homes for weeks , if not months .
As a result , millions have had their lives turned upside down .
Most entrepreneurs and self-employed persons have had their livelihoods jeopardized .
The EU economy may shrink by 5 percent according to the European Central Bank ( ECB ) , and similar @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
The economic devastation wrecked upon Western economies by governments will have consequences for many years to come .
It will inevitably lower European and US citizens ’ quality of life for a long time , impacting their health as well .
It is important to understand that this disaster is not the result of the coronavirus pandemic , which is a public health problem , but of overzealous government officials reacting to the pandemic .
A growing number of researchers and health professionals are suggesting that the total number of cases is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ means that COVID-19 is far less deadly than the media and government advisors insist .
These revised death rates put COVID-19 fatalities in many places at a rate similar to that of the flu , which kills hundreds of thousands of people every single year globally , without provoking any notably large political reaction .
This raises a question : Why the enormous and extreme reactions to the virus from Western politicians , bringing the entire economy to its knees and severely curtailing the fundamental individual freedoms of millions of citizens ?
< @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the usual incompetence and herd behavior in the political leadership of many countries to be reckoned with .
But other reasons exist for this disastrous and irresponsible behavior .
Here are some .
First , politicians have generally little understanding of how markets work .
Steeped in administrative and policy thinking , most politicians have never worked in the private sector or studied market economics .
They neither understand nor appreciate the complexity of markets which make our high standard of living possible .
This complexity includes an unfathomable number of daily exchanges @ @ @ @ @ @ @ adaptation to surrounding conditions .
The logic of politics , however , dictates that politicians can not be seen as “ doing nothing , ” so they seek always intervention in markets .
This is not new ; it has always been a typical trait of politicians and bureaucrats .
The political reactions to the coronavirus pandemic have just dramatically confirmed this truth yet again .
Secondly , politicians naturally make political calculations .
Having reelection constantly in mind , they do not want to be held responsible for anything that goes wrong @ @ @ @ @ @ @ prefer to act than not to act—all else being equal , to show that they tried something .
At least then—in their minds—they can not be accused of idleness , negligence , shortsightedness , or callousness .
However deleterious their actions , politicians generally are not held accountable and can present themselves as heroically standing firm in dangerous times , acting forcefully and with determination .
President Roosevelt ’ s harmful economic policies during the Great Depression and World War II are an example of this .
Thirdly , politicians sometimes rely too @ @ @ @ @ @ @ no training in social matters at all .
Even more so than politicians , scientists often have great difficulty in grasping the concept of the spontaneous order of the market , not surprising given that they are followers of the rigorous scientific process .
Albert Einstein ’ s frankly embarrassing economic proposals are a famous example .
Whereas the politician is at least fully aware of the subtle gray shades in policymaking and the fine balancing act of satisfying various stakeholders , the scientist generally means well but sees the world in black @ @ @ @ @ @ @ scientist is asked how to stop the spread of a pandemic , he or she would probably answer that the best and most efficient way is to order the strict confinement of the entire population to their homes for weeks .
This is what the France ’ s influential “ Conseil Scientifique ” has recommended , and it may well be true from a purely scientific point of view ( although that is open to debate now ) .
The problem arises when politicians enthusiastically follow such opinions without considering them in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
The first two reasons mentioned above may explain why politicians tend to place excessive trust in scientists : politicians are not familiar enough with market economics to fully grasp the consequences of acting on purely scientific advice , and it may be in their interest to act on such advice , since to do something—anything—is key .
A fourth reason why politicians have acted so recklessly to counter the spread of COVID-19 is certainly the political pressure that they are under .
In times of ( perceived ) crisis , they are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not for orders to follow , by an unwitting and politically uneducated electorate .
But the pressure comes not only from the people , which perhaps is normal in a democracy , but also from foreign politicians .
No leader wants to be outdone by his foreign colleagues and be left with the weakest plan to address the crisis .
In this case , the UK ’ s Boris Johnson reversed his policies , and Sweden ’ s Stefan Löfvén has been slowly bowing to precisely this external pressure to act .
But @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from the media , in particular in the current times of pervasive internet and social media .
Politicians are now constantly scrutinized and held responsible in a way that just a generation ago they were not .
Further , mass media is prone to dramatize and exaggerate events , as this makes for better ratings , but also because journalists are not virologists .
Mainstream media often tends to misinterpret and simplify the facts , inadvertently or not .
An example of this is the mortality rate of COVID-19 , which is constantly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is , because only declared cases are used ( case fatality rate ( CFR ) ) .
More generally , the prevailing attitude from the media is that everything must be done to save a small minority of the entire population today , even if that comes at the price of future economic pain for tens of millions of people .
This is the classic socialist and interventionist dilemma : Where does it stop ?
In a world of scarce resources , how much taxpayer money should the state spend to save one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to entertain a darker and more cynical explanation for the political reaction to the pandemic : power in a time of crisis .
The state never misses a chance to increase its power .
Crises are considered great political opportunities , and have thus been used countless times in history by rulers .
This was the case during and after World War I and World War II , as well as after 9/11 , with the passage in Congress of the PATRIOT Act ( Providing Appropriate Tools to Restrict , Intercept and Obstruct @ @ @ @ @ @ @ also true of smaller crises , such as the current panic .
The economic stimulus packages that are now being proposed will again benefit corporatist bankers , as happened during the financial crisis .
This is why the big banks have been the first to call for and cheer more “ economic stimulus.

A dangerous and frightening political evolution is on the way in an already fragile political and economic system .
The political consequences of the generalized confinement of millions of people in Europe will be of long-lasting consequence to the balance of power between state and society .
Though the Western “ liberal democratic ” order was never really one except in name , it is clear that a decisive step has now been taken away from it .
This @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lead , hopefully , to a clearer understanding among the population that constitutional changes are due in many countries , in order to limit the powers of executive branches everywhere .
Let us hope that this will be the lesson learned by the millions confined to their homes by the arbitrary will of the state .

It is important to understand that this disaster is not the result of the coronavirus pandemic, which is a public health problem, but of overzealous government officials reacting to the pandemic. A growing number of researchers and health professionals are suggesting that the total number of cases is far higher than previously thought, which means that COVID-19 is far less deadly than the media and government advisors insist.

Steeped in administrative and policy thinking, most politicians have never worked in the private sector or studied market economics. They neither understand nor appreciate the complexity of markets which make our high standard of living possible.

The logic of politics, however, dictates that politicians cannot be seen as “doing nothing,” so they seek always intervention in markets. This is not new; it has always been a typical trait of politicians and bureaucrats. The political reactions to the coronavirus pandemic have just dramatically confirmed this truth yet again.

Whereas the politician is at least fully aware of the subtle gray shades in policymaking and the fine balancing act of satisfying various stakeholders, the scientist generally means well but sees the world in black and white.
Thus, if a scientist is asked how to stop the spread of a pandemic, he or she would probably answer that the best and most efficient way is to order the strict confinement of the entire population to their homes for weeks. This is what the France’s influential “Conseil Scientifique” has recommended, and it may well be true from a purely scientific point of view (although that is open to debate now). The problem arises when politicians enthusiastically follow such opinions without considering them in the light of their political and economic consequences.

A fourth reason why politicians have acted so recklessly to counter the spread of COVID-19 is certainly the political pressure that they are under.

Beef prices are soaring even after Trump issued an executive order to address meat shortages, however with food workers scared and unwilling to return to work, Trump’s attempt to normalize prices has backfired, because all it has achieved was a frantic scramble by consumers to hoard beef resulting in even bigger shortages and higher prices.
Call it a bacon run.
As a result of the wave of panic-shopping at supermarkets, more grocery stores are imposing limits on meat purchases. On Friday, we reported that supermarket chain Kroger said that it has put “purchase limits” on ground beef and fresh pork at some of its stores following growing concerns over meat shortages due to coronavirus-induced supply disruptions. Other large grocers said they expect to be out of stock on different types of cuts soon.
Sure enough, on Monday Costco joined Kroger, announced it was limiting customers to three packages of meat.
Product Limitations
Costco has implemented limits on certain items to help ensure more members are able to purchase merchandise they want and need. Our buyers and suppliers are working hard to provide essential, high demand merchandise as well as everyday favorites.
Fresh meat purchases are temporarily limited to a total of 3 items per member among the beef, pork and poultry products.
Most if not all other supermarkets will follow suit in enforcing similar strict purchase limits.
With Trump’s EO failing to ease the shortage, and beef supply chains crippled, it is unclear when or how the beef shortage will be resolved, even as prices explode with each passing day, making beef a luxury for America’s 30 million suddenly unemployed who don’t know when their next paycheck will arrive.
While so far the food crisis is limited to beef and to a lesser extent pork (whose price rose to the highest in 6 years today), how long before all other food supply chains are similarly crippled resulting in the kind of food hyperinflation that sparked the Arab Spring protests and rebellions which culminated with overthrown governments across much of northern Africa and the Middle East?

revolutionradio--2020-05-05--A Lab Coat Coup Has Overthrown America

A Lab Coat Coup Has Overthrown America

American Unemployment Rates Are Setting Records and THEY ARE NOT THE RECORDS AMERICA WANTS TO SET !
!
!
!
!
!
America is now beseiged with 30.5 million Americans out of work and the number is growing exponentially every day !
HISTORIC LOWS IN THE OVERALL EMPLOYMENT RATE ONLY 90 DAYS AFTER TRUMP SET RECORDS FOR EMPLOYMENT AMONG ALL GROUPS !
!
!
America has been conquered not by a virus , but by the Bolsheviks who inhabit the councils of government .
Despotic Democrats and abject traitors , like Republican Arizona Governor , Doug Ducey who epitomizes this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ actually threatened Arizona business owners with jail if they dared to exercise their constitutional rights if they opened without the King ’ s permission .
The lockdowns which went way beyond reason with regard to the spread of any virus , including CV-19 , were designed to destroy the small business backbone of America .
How do you know the small businesses were targeted ?
That is an easy question to answer .
In Arizona , for example , the billionaire-controlled box stores operated with impunity with little deference to social distancing .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ small business competition was illegally and unconstitutionally shut down .
After intense pressure from local media , who has lost their advertising revenue and the independent media , Ducey called an impromptu press conference on the afternoon of May 4th , at the request of his handlers , and appeared to backdown .
However , he did not backdown .
Gyms are closed and restaurants still can not open for a week , why ?
Small business retail outlet stores are handicapped with restrictive regulations that Ducey says they must follow , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
The Equal Protection Amendment to the Consitution is dead in Arizona under King Ducey .
Even with Ducey getting his backside handed to him , he is still attacking small businesses !

American Unemployment Rates Are Setting Records and THEY ARE NOT THE RECORDS AMERICA WANTS TO SET!!!!!!
America is now beseiged with 30.5 million Americans out of work and the number is growing exponentially every day!
HISTORIC LOWS IN THE OVERALL EMPLOYMENT RATE ONLY 90 DAYS AFTER TRUMP SET RECORDS FOR EMPLOYMENT AMONG ALL GROUPS!!!
America has been conquered not by a virus, but by the Bolsheviks who inhabit the councils of government. Despotic Democrats and abject traitors, like Republican Arizona Governor, Doug Ducey who epitomizes this Bolshevik Revolution against America! This Maoist actually threatened Arizona business owners with jail if they dared to exercise their constitutional rights if they opened without the King’s permission. The lockdowns which went way beyond reason with regard to the spread of any virus, including CV-19, were designed to destroy the small business backbone of America. How do you know the small businesses were targeted? That is an easy question to answer.
In Arizona, for example, the billionaire-controlled box stores operated with impunity with little deference to social distancing. Meanwhile, the box store’s small business competition was illegally and unconstitutionally shut down. After intense pressure from local media, who has lost their advertising revenue and the independent media, Ducey called an impromptu press conference on the afternoon of May 4th, at the request of his handlers, and appeared to backdown. However, he did not backdown. Gyms are closed and restaurants still cannot open for a week, why? Small business retail outlet stores are handicapped with restrictive regulations that Ducey says they must follow, but his pet box stores are left alone. The Equal Protection Amendment to the Consitution is dead in Arizona under King Ducey. Even with Ducey getting his backside handed to him, he is still attacking small businesses! Why? The answer to that question is simple. Small business is the backbone of capitalist, free-enterprise America and is subsequently the dire enemy of every communist dressed in Bolshevik clothing, like Ducey, like Whitmer, like Newsom et al. And all the American dictators collectively said “Amen”. By the way, this is the closest that this group of Bolsheviks will ever get to Jesus. In fact, we very much need Jesus to walk through the monied temples, like Walmart, with a whip and kick some communist backside like he did 2,000 years ago! Would you buy a ticket and attend that modern-day reckoning?
At his press conference, spurred by intense citizen pressure and where two Arizona sheriffs announced that they would not enforce Ducey’s communist edicts, Ducey was looking good. He was very well groomed! With all barber shops in Arizona shut down, how did King Ducey maintain his spiffy appearance? Simple! It’s a case of rules for thee, but not for me!!!

The Lab Coat Coup
Fauci, Birx and Gates are in control of America. Big Pharma, under the guise of emergency powers constained in USC 42, are running the government. It has been well-documented the extreme financial conflicts of interest exist within the COVID-19 team and all of them are beholding to the Gates AND the Clinton Foundations. Everyone in this team should be fired and prosecuted for these conflicts of interest, but it is just another day at the Bolshevik farm.
The government is now the epitome of what President Eisenhower spoke about in his farewell address, in that we have lost control of our government to corporate interests who are no longer interested in supporting a Constitutional Republic. Many of our leaders have embraced a Bolshevik world view and they have no compunction in supporting its demise in the hope of currying favor with the globalists in the hope of getting a seat at the table of power in what follows the fall of the American empire and subsequent republic form of government.
Armed with unsafe vaccines, stethoscopes and rectal thermometers the lab coat coup has conquered America where previous armies could not accomplish the feat. All heil the unproven and almighty mandatory vaccines that are coming to your neighborhood.
Enemies Within
New Zealand Journalist, Trevor Loudon, documented, through his documentary entitled The Enemies Within) how the Communist Party of the USA itself had adopted a stealth plan to achieve revolutionary goals by decisions made in the 1970s to infiltrate and manipulate the Democratic Party.

“We’re being forced to destroy our harvests,” cattle raiser warns of coming beef shortage
By Kit Daniels

A rancher warns that the US beef supply will plummet if ranches start culling cattle ready to butcher due to shut-down processing plants not taking livestock.
Right now there’s plenty of cattle to meet beef demand, but because fewer processing plants are operating at full capacity, the bottleneck could reduce cattle supply and thus exacerbate the beef shortage.
The USDA has already said it would “advise and assist on depopulation and disposal methods” of livestock if they cannot be moved to market due to the closures since current regulations don’t give ranchers much maneuverability.
“They are preparing us to depopulate the fat cattle ready to harvest because of a bottleneck created by the effects of Covid,” a rancher from Archer Co., Texas, warns. “…We are in trouble. Our food supply is in trouble.”
The rancher also pointed out that while the USA – which could feed the entire world if properly managed – is about to start culling cattle, the nation is still importing less-regulated beef from Namibia in Southern Africa.
“And yet they’re telling us to prepare to euthanize harvest-ready cattle,” he added. “Am I the only one who sees a problem in this? It is time to get the American people back to work. It is time we get money flowing. It is time we get food on the shelves.”
The cattle raiser also implied that regional beef processing plants should be kept open as a national security issue.
Indeed, a fifth of Wendy’s restaurants have already ran out of beef, and several supermarkets have already started rationing meat to customers much like the toilet paper shortages seen this spring.

And to really put things into perspective, the Chinese-owned Smithfield Foods, which is the world’s No. 1 pork producer, has already shut down operations in Illinois.
According to American Thinker (with emphasis added):
In 2013, Smithfield Foods was bought by the Shanghui Group, later rebranded as the WH Group, for $4.7 billion. It remains the largest total acquisition of a U.S. company by the Chinese. With that purchase, the Chinese owned one in four pigs raised in the U.S. and, by adding 146,000 acres, continued to be the world’s largest buyer of American farmland.
The purchase was underwritten with a $4-billion Bank of China loan facilitated by the Chinese Communist Party. The deal was an integral part of the CCP’s 2011 five-year plan to improve the Chinese economy with purchases of overseas farmland and food processing companies.
Food is poised to become the oil of the 21st century, with demand increasing for a scarce resource.

When the history of this coronavirus scare is written, it should note how wildly inaccurate were the projections of the “experts” and what a draconian response was put in place based on bad data. When the deaths did not add up to projections, the authorities started massively cooking the books, counting every “probable” covid death as a covid death. While the US accused China and Iran of misreporting the numbers, the US is doing the same thing on a much larger scale. Meanwhile new scare stories are released in the compliant media every day warning of dire consequences if we dare to re-open any part of the economy. How much of this is enough?

by Ron Paul via The Ron Paul Institute for Peace & Prosperity , ZeroHedge.com Tue , 05/05/2020 Last week the Federal Reserve announced it will keep interest rates at or near zero until the economy recovers from the government-imposed shutdown .
Following this announcement , Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell urged Congress and the Trump administration to put aside any concerns about the deficit and spend whatever it takes to stimulate the economy and combat coronavirus .
The Federal Reserve previously announced it would make unlimited purchases of Treasury securities , thus encouraging Congress and the president to increase spending @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Congress talking about another multi-trillion-dollar stimulus bill , and with President Trump proposing a two trillion dollars infrastructure plan as a way to get Americans back to work , it is obvious , and not surprising , that Congress and President Trump gleefully agree with Powell ’ s advice .
Increasing the purchase of federal debt is not the only action the Fed has taken in a desperate attempt to keep the economy afloat .
Since the coronavirus lockdowns began in early March , the Fed has greatly expanded its balance sheet .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ unprecedented program to “ loan ” money directly to businesses .
While some states are beginning to end the lockdowns , it may be months or even another year before all the lockdowns are finally ended .
It is unlikely that the economy will completely recover after the shutdown ends .
The economy was teetering on the brink of a recession months before anyone heard of coronavirus .
Last September , a panicked Fed began emergency infusions of cash into the repurchasing market , which is where banks make short-term loans to each @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sheet expansion also began in September .
The Fed was also pushing interest rates down before the coronavirus panic , and it will likely keep rates at or even below zero long after the crisis related to the shutdown subsides .
Economic stagnation combined with zero or negative interest rates remove incentive for people to save .
This depletes the supply of private capital available to invest in businesses and jobs .
The lack of private capital will put pressure on the Federal Reserve to maintain , and even expand , its new @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Federal Reserve ’ s responses to the coronavirus shutdown increases the distortions of the market caused by the Federal Reserve ’ s meddling with the money supply and interest rates .
These increased distortions guarantee the inevitable crash will be much more severe than the current downturn .
The one upside is that the next meltdown will likely lead to the end of the fiat money system and thus the end of the welfare-warfare state .
The only way to minimize the coming crisis is to begin immediately unwinding the current system .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ lockdown and let businesses reopen and people go back to work .
Congress must then begin challenging monetary policy by passing the Audit the Fed bill .
Congress should also cut spending , starting with ending our hyper-interventionist foreign policy and bringing the troops home .
Ending the welfare-warfare state and the fiat money system may cause some short-term pain , but that pain will be dwarfed by the long-term gains in liberty , peace , and prosperity .

Increasing the purchase of federal debt is not the only action the Fed has taken in a desperate attempt to keep the economy afloat. Since the coronavirus lockdowns began in early March, the Fed has greatly expanded its balance sheet. The Federal Reserve has also launched an unprecedented program to “loan” money directly to businesses.
While some states are beginning to end the lockdowns, it may be months or even another year before all the lockdowns are finally ended. It is unlikely that the economy will completely recover after the shutdown ends.
The economy was teetering on the brink of a recession months before anyone heard of coronavirus. Last September, a panicked Fed began emergency infusions of cash into the repurchasing market, which is where banks make short-term loans to each other. The Fed’s balance sheet expansion also began in September. The Fed was also pushing interest rates down before the coronavirus panic, and it will likely keep rates at or even below zero long after the crisis related to the shutdown subsides.
Economic stagnation combined with zero or negative interest rates remove incentive for people to save. This depletes the supply of private capital available to invest in businesses and jobs. The lack of private capital will put pressure on the Federal Reserve to maintain, and even expand, its new lending programs indefinitely.
Each of the Federal Reserve’s responses to the coronavirus shutdown increases the distortions of the market caused by the Federal Reserve’s meddling with the money supply and interest rates. These increased distortions guarantee the inevitable crash will be much more severe than the current downturn. The one upside is that the next meltdown will likely lead to the end of the fiat money system and thus the end of the welfare-warfare state.
The only way to minimize the coming crisis is to begin immediately unwinding the current system. The first step is to end the lockdown and let businesses reopen and people go back to work. Congress must then begin challenging monetary policy by passing the Audit the Fed bill. Congress should also cut spending, starting with ending our hyper-interventionist foreign policy and bringing the troops home. Ending the welfare-warfare state and the fiat money system may cause some short-term pain, but that pain will be dwarfed by the long-term gains in liberty, peace, and prosperity.

If there is one thing that most everyone can agree on concerning the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, it is the fact that there is no shortage of conflicting information out there about the nature of it. And the mainstream media is certainly doing its part to steer the narrative as part of a larger agenda, using plenty of misinformation along the way.
The following are among the most commonly parroted lies about the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) that aim to distort the facts and deceive you into believing falsehoods about this pandemic:
Media LIE: The virus is not man-made
From the very beginning of this thing, the official narrative was that the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) came from a Chinese wet market where bats and other “exotic” animals are sold as meat. But the world later learned that it actually more than likely “escaped” from the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
The mainstream media and social media platforms went nuts trying to censor this information and even called it “fake news.” But eventually it became undeniable that bat soup was not responsible for spreading the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) around Wuhan and eventually to the rest of the world – hence why we continue to call it the Wuhan coronavirus rather than just COVID-19.
We have even seen attempts by the media machine at making the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) a racial issue because there are supposedly more “people of color” coming down with it than people with fair skin, which further detracts attention away from the source of this virus.
Media LIE: Hydroxychloroquine is extremely dangerous and doesn’t work
The minute that President Donald Trump announced that hydroxychloroquine may be an effective, and very inexpensive, remedy for the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19), the mainstream media immediately began decrying this claim as fake news, even though Anthony Fauci himself praised hydroxychloroquine back in 2013 under Barack Obama as being some type of “miracle cure” for SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome).
There have even been studies conducted that were designed to intentionally smear the drug as both ineffective and dangerous, though one in particular purposely left out zinc, which appears to be a critical co-factor in supporting the effectiveness of hydroxychloroquine – in other words, politics as usual.
Media LIE: Only a vaccine can save us from coronavirus
Many politicians and public health officials are parroting the lie that the only way America can come out of lockdown and go back to “normal” is to get vaccinated with some future vaccine for the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) that does not even yet exist. A vaccine, we are repeatedly told, is the only thing, or perhaps some new “blockbuster” antiviral drug, that can cure the world of this scourge and make everything happy and wonderful once again.
Meanwhile, not a peep is being made about things like intravenous (IV) high-dose vitamin C, which is being successfully used in other countries to stem the tide of infections without the need for new drugs and vaccines.
By omission, nutrition is pointless
Speaking of natural approaches to overcoming the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) that are being systematically ignored by the mainstream media and most in politics, have you heard anyone mention the importance of nutrition in all of this? We did not think so, and this is intentional.
Regular readers of this site over the years should know by now that the single-most important thing you need to do to stay healthy besides exercising regularly is to feed your body the nutrition it needs to naturally ward off illnesses, including those associated with the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19).
Research compiled by the Lewin Group reveals that nutritional remedies such as calcium, vitamin D, folate, omega-3 fatty acids, lutein, zeaxanthin, and more all play a critical role in fortifying the immune system, which, if properly nourished, should have little problem fending off disease.
Oh, and Trump is to blame for all the deaths
And last but certainly not least, there is the Blame Trump tactic. When all else fails, simply tack it all on to the Commander-in-Chief, whose lack of a formulated response, failure to follow Fauci’s recommendations, or whatever other excuse they can come up with is directly responsible for all of the deaths tied to the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19).
It is interesting, to say the least, that this crisis emerged almost immediately following the multiple failed attempts by primarily leftists to oust President Trump from the White House on trumped-up impeachment charges. While some may not agree with Trump’s handling of this pandemic, he did leave it up to the states to formulate their own responses, which makes him anything but the tyrant that Democrats like to portray him as being.
As time goes on, this country is sure to see perpetually more societal fracturing as a result of these ever-present, Trump-hating narratives. At a time when the country should be joining together to resist all of the tyranny that is now coming our way as a result of the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19), left-right animosity is instead being employed as a desperate, last-ditch attempt to smear Trump in the leadup to the 2020 election.
