Wuhan Flu: Death And Lockdowns

John Tierney;

There’s still no proof that lockdowns save lives but plenty of evidence that they end them, as I found by looking at the toll of “excess deaths” during the pandemic. Last year in the United States there were 130,000 more deaths than normal that were not attributed to the coronavirus.
 
These excess deaths occurred disproportionately among the young and middle-aged, minorities and low-income workers — groups hit especially hard by the lockdowns. The toll has been especially high in locked-down California but not in unlocked Florida. The mortality rate among younger people soared in America but not in Sweden, where it has been below normal. All of which confirms that the lockdowns are “trickle-down epidemiology” — protecting the laptop class at the expense of the working class — and constitute one of the greatest public-health mistakes in history.

Emphasis mine. The full article is here.

Make no mistake – epidemiologists were well aware that lockdowns would result in premature and unnecessary deaths from social distress and delayed access to health care and diagnosis. Those numbers will be in models that were never released to the public, but they will exist.

  1. Those numbers will be in models that were never released to the public, but they will exist.
    This is a rationl, but, I fear, erroneous supposition. Apart from Dr. Fauci in the US, who was, and is, openly political, I think that all the Doctators are sincere but sorely incompetent. The model that set off the global panic, the spaghetti code of British “20 million are going to die” Neil Fergusson, didn’t.

  2. To protect the Boomer population, we shifted deaths onto younger demographics who had almost nothing to fear from COVID.

    And Coumo still murdered thousands of grandmas anyway.

  3. I have no faith in ANYBODY to supply honest, accurate and complete data over deaths this past year. The inherent dishonesty of politics has now permeated itself into every facet of society.

    I believe that virtually all the data we have now has been so tainted at it’s sources for ideological gains as to be utterly useless.

    1. I have zero faith in Trudeau and his crew of clueless twits to procure enough vaccines to fully immunize the people of this country.
      Here we are at their mercy. They’re vaccinating seniors, over 75 and over 80 with first dose and giving the second in FOUR months. Who can assure us this isn’t a freaking waste of vaccine when it’s recommended the second dose be given in 21 or 28 days?
      Why are we putting up with this?

      1. Liz J.

        How CAN anyone of these FAUX non “VACCINES” Immunize ANYONE.??

        As per PFIZER themselves said Injections contain:

        “…synthetic fragments entrained in a fatty emulsion…”

        What da hell does that even MEAN.??? NOBODY Knows….no one.
        (Yet I keep thinking of the GATES Patent..? and his many talks about “chipping Humanity..??)

        IOW, there is ZERO Biological or Organic material contained within….Material that must be within a “vaccine”. Pfizer themselves will tell you straight up, you will not gain ANY immunity from these shots as they are DESIGNED to treat the symptoms….!!!

        So why would ANY SANE Person even consider allowing this GARBAGE into their bodies when the actual survival rate of this flu is likely Identical to the Seasonal Flu, is completely beyond me….MADNESS personified.

        The planetary SHEEP – 100% HERDED to where they all believe with RELIGIOUS Like fervour, their salvation lies in an injection of …… Not a vaccine.
        not happening in this household…

  4. We are already seeing the fallout among senior and mid level bureaucrats. They are getting huge wage increases to keep their mouths shut. Once again, we have seen a disaster problem turned into a catastrophic disaster by know nothing clowns. Let the coverupping begin. It’s what the Canadian government and the paid media is best at.

  5. The lawsuits are going to be epic.

    The Emergency Use approval by the FDA is based on the premise that there are no known drugs that can treat COVID. That is why HCQ, Ivermectin and other valid treatments were suppressed. To get pharma possibly trillions in revenue. The public has been betrayed by their government and public sector by going along with this charade.

    1. I’m sorry to lower the curtain on your law suit fantasy, but there won’t be any that make it to the docket. The fix is in…the ballot box has been corrupted and the legal profession has been in on it from the beginning.

      1. Greg….Im not so sure about that my friend.

        There are folks in Europe right now gathering Testimony and Evidence about the Entire SCAM…in prep for a Nuremberg Set of TRIALS – Led By Reiner Fuellmich, the Lawyer who took down Deutsche Bank in their money laundering scam and VW with their Diesel Emissions scam…..no slouch.!!

        This is 28 min… of UNbelievable Testimony from a W H O insider.

        1. I read that they are looking at launching the lawsuit in Canada because of our Class Action lawsuit capability. Apparently not available in the EU.

  6. Hey Kate, when you get a chance, the last link “delayed access to health care and diagnosis” doesn’t work.
    thanks!

  7. Michael Crichton describes this madness in simple and prosaic way in his speech on The States of Fear.

    The resemblance to current events and what he describes as massive media cartel propaganda is uncanny.

  8. Our masters considered a few hundred thousand dead proles a small price to pay to rid themselves of Donald Trump.

    Never forget that as far they’re concerned, you are the problem to be solved.

  9. Excellent article. Thanks for posting it. Continuing lockdowns are based on nothing more than wishful thinking. I would say the same for the vaccines.
    People often mention how successful the draconian lockdowns in Australia were, but they had very few cases to begin with, so I do not think they prove anything. And we see little mention of similar success in Tanzania with its population of 60 million, and 26 Covid deaths — no lockdowns! They did have some sort of treatmment — I believe anti-malarial drugs. Sadly, Tanzania has just lost their President, to a sudden ” heart attack.” This happened just shortly after Bill Gates announced that President Magufuli had to be “reigned in.” He seemed to be thumbing his nose at the WHO.

  10. Everything is working as planned. It’s all part of the Gates Master Plan to reduce the population of the Earth by 90%.

  11. My brother-in-law in the UK died at the weekend (cancer). My sister-in-law is in a very fragile state and has no close relatives for support (they had no children). In normal times either my wife would travel there to support her, or ideally, we would welcome her here for as long as she wants to stay – that way she would not be surrounded with all his things and her memories.

    Of course, that is not allowed. Residents of the UK are simply forbidden to enter Canada for non-business purposes, and even if she were admitted, a stay in one of Justin’s covid jails would be on the menu. For Mrs A to travel to the UK, she would likely be placed in a British covid jail for 10 days, at our expense, and then again back here when she returned.

    We are fearful what sister-in-law might do in her despair. I cannot figure out any way to sensibly get my wife and her sister together.

  12. “Make no mistake – epidemiologists were well aware that lockdowns would result in premature and unnecessary deaths from social distress and delayed access to health care and diagnosis. Those numbers will be in models that were never released to the public, but they will exist.”

    As Robert of Ottawa says,this gives them way too much credit.
    Our Stomping Morons never gave consequences a thought,how could they?
    These are lifers,professional parasites from families dedicated to slurping on the lifeblood of the nation..The very concept that productive work must be done ,before parasites can steal the product,has been lost in the mists of time to these fools and bandits.

    Think about the timeline as the panic,chaos and malice unfolded…Not one of the “Dear Leaders” had any plan for “restarting” the private economy,cause they know “Money comes from the Government”.
    Parliament effectively shut down,all the while assuring us how “Vitally necessary” they be,the whole lot of them.

    Politicians surrendered every responsibility and hid behind their “Public health experts”..
    And what experts they turned out to be.
    So I doubt any modelling of the logical and natural side effects of the State imprisoning the citizens,in their own homes,ever were presented to our “Policy Makers”..
    Although it probably would have made no difference,as these numerically illiterate ugly actors obviously have no respect for the rights and freedoms Canadian society used to offer.

    The economic mess highlights the ignorance of our political actors,they actually increased the public service and gave them (and themselves) pay raises while destroying ,by royal decree,the real real economy..
    And now..Cause we are all in this together…They are upping the gouge,somebody has to pay for the Chaos of the Dread Covid Panic.

    And we are deep into the self serving propaganda as these useless twits try to avoid scrutiny..
    “Cases Cases Cases..Deadly variants..squirrel..racist squirrels..
    Vaccine!.

    1. I think the politicians and cowardly bureaucrats are now just doubling down to cover their tracks. To actually admit to their egregious error would be too embarrassing. Sadly, this attitude will only make things worse.

  13. The biggest fallout will be the long-term economic damage that people won’t explicitly connect to Covid.

    Ten years from now when that hospital isn’t built or there’s no money from that start-up or taxes are sucking an extra 6% out of everyone’s income to pay interest on the debt and our dollar is 52 cents etc. Etc.

    No one will realize this was a turning point for how shitty things will be then.

  14. Lockdown is a nice prison term.
    Recently, Bonnie Henry flippantly said that the vaccine isn’t a “ get out of jail free” card.
    Earlier she said the vaccine is “amazingly effective”.
    She should go directly to jail, along with Tam, the Liberals, and all the other treasonous bastards.

    1. I just lost a family member to undiagnosed COPD. Granted she was in her 70’s.
      Nevertheless, she might still be here if it had been caught in time.
      To date, I know no-one who has contracted Covid, much less died from it. Perhaps I’m fortunate that way.
      However I now have a family member whose death can IMO at least be partly attributed to the restricted access to health care that we’ve experienced over the last year.
      And yes, I blame Bonnie Bullshit for this.

      BTW “Lockdowns” are also what bed-wetting liberals do to schools when someone takes a camera tripod out of a trunk three blocks away. It’s a useless leftist thing and I’ve always despised the very concept of it for that reason.
