The German government is forcing children in schools across the country to wear compulsory coronavirus face masks. If children are unable to wear the state-mandated mask, even for medical reasons, they are not allowed on school premises.

In the following video (audio-only), a mother speaks out against the order banning her son from attending school without a face mask even though her son has a medical condition that precludes him from doing so.

He’s not allow to set foot on the school premises. He’s no longer able to participate. I find it to be quite alarming that it has come to this. Let me say this clearly: I think this is dangerous.

The mother is not only worried about her child, but also the effects of masks on all children. Her concerns include medical consequences such as lack of oxygen, psychological and mental effects and intellectual development delays.

Many parents are terrified to challenge the state’s totalitarian coronavirus regulations being enforced against children and their families. Not only can failure to comply with mask requirements lead to expulsion from school, but now the state has been granted the power to remove sick children from their parents’ custody and place them in ‘forced isolation’ corona facilities.

Despite German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s governments oppressive ordinances, the mother urges people to unite and stand together in protest:

Where are the people who resist? The ones who are going to say: “I’m taking this thing off! Who’s going to forbid me from breathing freely in this country?”

If we do not resist, where will the demands end, asked the mother:

Mandatory vaccines? And the chip that will probably follow that? Where does it end? When do we say, I don’t want my child to live in such a world? We were talking about digitization. In the future will it be my job as a teacher to speak to every student online in their house? With everything under surveillance.”

A recording of a mother speaking at a school parents meeting in North Rhine-Westphalia

I would like to say something to you all. [Name] is no longer attending school. I think it is sad, 
because we had a certificate from his doctor stating he can’t wear a mask. Now the school says, 
after the summer break, that he is no longer able to attend school. He’s not allow to set foot 
on the school premises. He’s no longer able to participate. I find it to be quite alarming that 
it has come to this. Let me say this clearly: I think this is dangerous.

If there are any other parents that see this critically and think it is strange that their 
children have to wear a mask for six to eight hours. The entire time. It would be great 
if you contact me, because I think it is time that we start to become active. 

Our children are being made sick by being made to wear these masks. They breath CO2 back in 
constantly, so they are constantly suffering from a lack of oxygen. Of course the body gets 
used to it. They don’t pass out right away, but it means the brain receives less oxygen. 
The muscles also receive less oxygen. It also causes psychological problems, if they 
constantly see masked people. They can’t see the facial expressions of others. When they 
are constantly told to practice social distancing. I wanted to say this clearly and wish 
more parents would take a stand and refuse to allow their children to be placed into 
such conditions.

I think what makes it worse here at this school, more then any other school, is that this 
school has a flag with the pledge: “Responsible for the emotional, cognitive and physical 
well-being of children”. And it is supposed to ensure our children are doing well. 
I had to say that at least. My child will not attend school as long as this ordinance 
is in place, because I don’t want him to get sick from it.

Today I heard from the Robert Koch Institute (RKI), after the constant warnings 
circulating about a second lockdown, the second wave, etc. — there isn’t a single 
positive sample of SARS-COV 2. Not one. There’s all this talk about testing, testing, 
testing, Which is just showing that someone might have fragments of the virus, but is healthy,
and that there are many false positive included in the results. So where are all the 
dead people? Where are all the corpses from this pandemic? I keep asking myself that 
the entire time. WHERE ARE THEY!?

I have to ask. I want the truth. No one is talking about this and everyone is just believing it. 
We’re so very obedient. It makes me want to puke. Where are the people who resist? The ones 
who are going to say: “I’m taking this thing off! Who’s going to forbid me from breathing 
freely in this country?” Outside or wherever? In Israel they have to wear masks everywhere! 
I’m going to protest! It’s probably going to happen here too, if we don’t put a stop to it. 
Are we going to do that too? Mandatory vaccines? And the chip that will probably follow that?
Where does it end?

When do we say, I don’t want my child to live in such a world? We were talking about 
digitization. In the future will it be my job as a teacher to speak to every student 
online in their house? With everything under surveillance. 

I don’t want to live like that, and that’s why I am taking a stand against it. I’m a good 
person. I don’t do stupid things. I’m not a right-wing extremist or anything like that. 
I’m fighting for the children, for all of our children.

So, people, since I recently returned to school, yesterday, I could clearly recognize how deceptively the schools operate. Although the mandatory mask requirement in the classroom for schools [in NRW] was overturned, what they are doing now is really clever.

As soon as students enter the classroom, the windows and doors are all opened. All the students are sitting there with, really, every window open. Doors too. There’s an enormous draft. It’s freezing cold.

Then the teacher says, “We’ll close the window when you put your masks on”.

So you have the choice between getting sick because you’re freezing the entire time in school or you put the sh***y mask on. Most comply at that point.

Teachers come into classes saying, “Oh, yes, I know there isn’t a mask requirement, but nevertheless I would ask you to put your masks on so we protect each other.”

Students are being directly manipulated.

I’m talking about students from the age of 19 or 20 years old at vocational schools.

Maybe even 25 years old or whatever. They acquiesce directly.

There are other methods. A teacher is wearing a mask and mumbling.

Teachers who put masks on purposefully mumble behind their masks so that no one can understand.

When the students say they can’t understand, or we can’t understand, the teacher’s ice-cold response is, “That’s your problem.

If you put on your masks, then I’ll take mine off.”

That’s how it works now. Absolutely manipulative. Extremely disgusting.

Yes, it would be interesting to see how it is at elementary schools, and I am going to find out.

If children in the elementary school are sitting in drafty classrooms and start getting sick because of this manipulative crap, then I think we as parents aren’t finished with this topic yet.

It looks like we celebrated too soon after hearing that the mask requirement was overturned.

Imagine students sitting in classroom in this horrible weather in a nonstop draft, and being oppressed by this method. Totally manipulated.

The choice is either you put your masks on or you sit here in the freezing cold, getting sick.

Either you put your masks on or you can’t understand a thing I say.

It’s a filthy trick. I’m outraged.

It’s just completely disgusting how manipulative the teachers are acting.

Unbelievable. Unbelievable. Have a nice day.

GERMAN DOCTOR: ‘I HAD DAILY DANGEROUS AND DEADLY DISEASES AND INFECTIONS TO DEAL WITH~COVID-19 IS NOT ONE OF THEM’

BY RENEE NAL

SEE: https://rairfoundation.com/german-doctor-i-had-daily-dangerous-and-deadly-diseases-and-infections-to-deal-with-covid-19-is-not-one-of-them/;

“Why are you playing along with this, dear colleagues?” – Dr. Yves Oberndörfer

In the following RAIR exclusively-translated video, Dr. Yves Oberndörfer joins the ranks of prominent physicians ringing the alarm of the politicized nature of the Chinese Coronavirus. The doctor questions why so many tests are needed when most people are not actually sick. The German doctor also warns that abusive government measures are arbitrary, political, and not based in science.

While he was very worried initially, Dr. Yves Oberndörfer now believes that the coronavirus is being used as a means to control citizens through the erratic dictates of the German “Infection Protection Act,” coupled with media-coordinated messaging.

“A dangerous disease is determined by the dead, not the infected,” he said.

Oberndörfer has been addressing “daily dangerous and deadly diseases and infections” throughout his 30-year career, he explains. The doctor stresses in his video that the coronavirus does not qualify as one of those diseases, despite the “force of the media,” which, he admits, initially impressed him too.

The German physician notes that 6% of deaths are “causally” from the coronavirus, as most patients who die with the virus also have serious comorbidities. As previously pointed out at RAIR Foundation USA, Coronavirus Response Coordinator Dr. Deborah Birx stated during a Coronavirus Task Force Press Briefing on April 7, “…if someone dies with COVID-19, we are counting that as a COVID-19 death.”

The question is and has been: How many of those who died, died from the coronavirus, and not simply withthe coronavirus?

Abuse of Power through the Infection Protection Act

The German physician questions the abuse of power that has been made in Germany in the guise of protecting citizens from the coronavirus. “The dismantling of democracy through increasing restrictions on the Constitution, which in the context of the hollowed-out Infections Protection Act is to be withdrawn,” he declares.

RAIR has reported extensively on the horrific abuse and arbitrary mandates imposed on citizens through the “Infection Protection Act.”

On masks, Dr. Yves Oberndörfer also has a strong opinion that “the mask requirement for adults and children, which has nevertheless been introduced, is disproportionate, and does more harm than good.” He is concerned about forcing children to wear masks in particular, as children “unlearn communication and do not recognize non-verbal communication because the face is hidden under a mask. The “long-term damage to the smallest children in particular is not foreseeable,” he said, citing a concern ignored by establishment politicians and their media cronies.

Abuse of the Elderly

As reported at RAIR, (see hereherehere, and here) the abuse of the elderly has been horrific in Germany, but also across the West. Civilized nations have failed the most vulnerable populations.

Dr. Yves Oberndörfer gives “examples” of “dramatic scenes” from his practice:

  • Tumor operations and other operations were canceled by the clinics, due to the now well-known fears of overcrowding, and on the recommendation of the Federal Ministry of Health, or moved to a later date.
  • People at the age of 90 and others living in old people’s homes were locked in their rooms, were banned from attending their partner’s funerals.
  • Dementia sufferers were neglected due the incarceration in their rooms.

Anyone reading the German Doctor’s examples in the West can surely relate to similar scenarios. The Doctor asks:

“Who has the right to lock up these old people, so they cannot accompany their loved one on the last journey, or see them one more time? These people helped build this country. Where is the identity of this country and the love for these old people?

In a damning message to his collegues, he continues to say that many of these limitations continue to be imposed, “although every doctor knows that this does NOT contribute to recovery.”

A Coordinated Media Message

For this author, one of the most powerful things Dr. Yves Oberndörfer relayed was a story from a man who experienced the trauma of World War I:

A clever man who grew up during World War I once told me: ‘Boy, watch out when the newspapers and television just write the same thing, spread fear and horror, and want to build an enemy image. Then something is terribly wrong; you grab your bundle and disappear.'”

This message resonates strongly, as the media in America also run coordinated messaging propaganda campaigns (one example here). The Doctor mentioned a fitting proverb: “Those who speak the truth need a fast horse.”

Transcript: many thanks to Hellequin GB for the translation

Dear friends of democracy, my name is Yves Oberndörfer, and I am a specialist in Urology, Andrology and drug therapy for tumors.

Today is the first of September 2020.

For the past 30 years now, during emergency services, my studies, in the clinic, and in the
practice, I had daily dangerous and deadly diseases and infections to deal with.

Covid-19 is not one of them.

In the meantime, immunity in Germany has progressed so far, that all measures for the benefit
of my patients and the entire population must be abolished. Since the end of March I have
advised every one of my patients who asked, to calm down and put aside their fear.

Yes, I too was worried until February.

The force of the media also impressed me.

Now my medical responsibility forces me to make this video, and not only to inform my patients.

I’ve been of the opinion since the end of March, that this “pandemic”, as we doctors say,
only exists as a laboratory pandemic.

That means it is diagnosed in the laboratory, without it being known whether the person
is or is becoming SICK.

And for whatever reason, testing continues.

You cannot tell from a positive laboratory finding whether a person is or will be SICK.

The most important question that everyone can and should ask is, and can do this on the
RKI website [German federal government agency and research institute responsible for disease control and prevention], “WHERE ARE ALL THE DEAD?” with such dramatically rising numbers as some politicians would have you believe?

A dangerous disease is determined by the dead, not the infected.

The media and politicians create a one-sided picture here.

According to the latest data from the CDC, Centers for Disease Control in the USA, that is the comparable Robert Koch Institute, RKI in Germany, only 6% died causally of SARS-Cov2.

Every single one is to be mourned, and there are also risk groups who should protect
themselves; that’s something we don’t need to discuss here.

2018… we had to grieve for over 20,000 deaths during the flu epidemic, and none of the
epidemiologists and politicians, in particular the “Lord of Flies” was interested, let alone
shut down the country. For this reason, as a Medical Doctor who has taken his oath for the
good of the people, I’ve inevitably come to the realization, that these government measures,
the opposition to which unfortunately does not exist, were and continue to be disproportionate.

The dismantling of democracy through increasing restrictions on the Constitution, which in
the context of the hollowed-out Infections Protection Act is to be withdrawn.

Every doctor has the duty to check these figures to see if these measures are helpful
for his patients at all, or cause them harm.

Dear Sirs or Madams from the RKI, where is your clinical experience? Why do veterinarians
and laboratory physicians have decision-making powers about measures for humans? That needs
to be changed urgently, and such a profound decision for society must not be performed by a
veterinarian or a laboratory physician, but should be decided through a panel of experts
consisting of different faculties and clinically active physicians.

As soon as a representative of this body disagrees, then this has to be checked just like
the opinion of the majority.

Democracy is too weak here, it must be strengthened also by the people as the final authority.
According to the Infection Protection Act, the situation must be regularly reassessed.

One would have recognized early back in March, before the lockdown, that the wave was
already flattened.

Coronaviruses have a seasonal frequency between November and March in the northern hemisphere.

They are usually not very pathogenic.

The mask requirement for adults and children, which has nevertheless been introduced,
is disproportionate, and does more harm than good.

Through these measures decided by well-known politicians our country will become DIVIDED.

Also in my practice dramatic scenes are played out.

I’d like to present a few brief examples of this.

  • Tumor operations and other operations were canceled by the clinics, due to the now well-known fears of overcrowding, and on the recommendation of the Federal Ministry of Health, or moved to a later date.
  • People at the age of 90 and others living in old people’s homes were locked in their rooms, were banned from attending their partner’s funerals.
  • Dementia sufferers were neglected due the incarceration in their rooms.

Who has the right to lock up these old people, so they cannot accompany their loved one
on the last journey, or see them one more time? These people helped build this country.

Where is the identity of this country and the love for these old people? Even today, in some
of the hospitals the right to visit and the visiting time of the relatives is still being discussed or limited in time, although every doctor knows that this does NOT contribute to recovery.

Why are you playing along with this, dear colleagues?

One of my tumor patients sat in front of me and informed me that he no longer wanted to
come to me because he’s so afraid of being locked up in his room again for the next 14 days.

It’s worse than being in jail.

They have at least “relaxation of enforcement” he said with tears in his eyes.

Children are now forced into a mask, which, according to the WHO at the beginning of the
alleged pandemic, would be of no use.

Then again, etc. etc. The WHO flag shifts direction according to the wind, as required by
politics. The fact is, the mouth and nose mask offers protection from touching your own face,
but not from viruses.

Children unlearn communication and do not recognize non-verbal communication because the
face is hidden under a mask.

The long-term damage to the smallest children in particular is not foreseeable.

Is this still the Federal Republic of Germany in which I grew up?

Article 1 of the Constitution is actually clear, just like Article 2 of the Constitution is.

The integrity of the body applies to ALL people, also for those who want to decide for themselves, and should NEVER have been restricted by any other law.

The hyped solidarity that the politicians demand of you, and demand, and break themselves
daily is disgraceful.

I am not a vaccination opponent, but a future vaccination requirement is in my opinion ASSAULT, and has nothing to do with Article 2 of the Constitution on human dignity and physical integrity.

Democracy is gradually being restricted, The digitization strategy for tapping big data
from the practices and hospitals in the health sector is being pushed forward in the shadow
of the “pandemic”, and data protection to protect our patient further… Where are the data
protection officers?

Dear fellow citizens and colleagues, check the numbers on the RKI website.

Do not equate infection with sick people, and start distinguishing Between whether the
person died OF SARS-Cov2 or WITH.

It makes perfect sense to distinguish between these.

To the media and politicians, stop spreading panic and fear, stop driving a wedge into the
population, Dissenters as Covidiots, “Reichsbürger”, or to curse or insult them as anti-Semites.

How can such a “discussion culture” be staged by the media and politicians and be accepted?

Everyone has a bad day at one point or another — I don’t excuse myself there either —

but for SIX MONTHS?

I still learned that journalism should only be objective, should be allowed to report, and
should always illuminate BOTH sides, and never tendentiously, as is currently the case.

When I watch discussions in the Bundestag, I shudder.

Half of them stare like zombies into their cellphones, ignore the speaker who has tried to do the research and tries to represent a part of his voters.

The other half don’t let the speaker finish but scream from left to right in between,
and tries to bring the speaker out of his concept.

They’re are NOT listening to the other. Dear politicians, simply put, YOU are our employees.

We have chosen you as our representatives, to be our voice.

WE pay your salaries. Then start to behave like that, be humane and critical of the truth
that lobbyists want to sell you as such, and stop butting into areas of which you
understand nothing.

Politics tries to convince people that vaccination is inevitable, is the ONLY saving agent;
without vaccination, normality is NO longer possible.

This new MR&I vaccination has NOT been adequately tested.

There are no long-term data, let alone long-term studies.

The pharmaceutical industry would like to disclaim all responsibility for a possible
vaccination and consequential damage NOW, and hand this responsibility over to the state.

Dear colleagues, if the permanent vaccination commission, STIKO, does not issue a
vaccination recommendation, YOU will be fully responsible.

But also with a possible recommendation from STIKO, you are not only morally liable,
but also financially, through possible claims for damages. Maybe this POSSIBLE monetary
loss will stimulate you to think about it?

To finish this off, I have a confession to make. Yes, I’ve been a so-called COVIDIOT since March,
have already been censored in a well-known medical forum after I wanted to draw attention to the fact that the increasing restrictions could lead and stimulate thought that fascism begins
where the other is defamed and gradually bullied.

This, dear forum, speaks against Article 5 in the Constitution.

Democracy has to be able to withstand other opinions, even if they don’t suit you.

Yes I was in Berlin on the 1st and 29th of August.

No, I did NOT get sick, nor anyone else who was there with me.

No, I’m not a Right, Left, Above or Below radical.

I am firmly convinced that democracy is a form of society that is worth living in.

I am not uneasy about basic democracy, either, like many a well-known female personality
with a certain tendency towards the shape of a Rhombus.

A clever man who grew up during World War I once told me: “Boy, watch out when the newspapers and television just write the same thing, spread fear and horror, and want to build an enemy image. Then something is terribly wrong; you grab your bundle and disappear.”

That is currently the case. No, I won’t go away, because the country I grew up in is also my
country. That being said, every country in the world is currently afflicted by this
“defective” development.

“Wake me up” is a 2016 song covered by Xavier Naidoo, which originally came from Sammy Deluxe in 2001. I wish that this song by Xavier and Sammy could reach everyone in Germany.

WAKE UP. Dear fellow citizens, in conclusion: Be vigilant, critical, democratic, loving and
peaceful, and form your OWN opinion.

Do not be seduced and dominated by lies.

And do NOT forget when the ladies and gentlemen turn their flags into the wind who was
and is responsible for this humanitarian, worldwide catastrophe.

Many thanks to all colleagues who helped me open my eyes at the end of March.

In particular, Bodo Schiffmann, a long-known university friend whom I have found again.

I am particularly pleased that you’re not alone, my friend.

Doc Ulli, Mr. Wolfgang Wodark and especially Mr. Sucharit Bhakdi for his versions, as well as all
colleagues and all other people who are honest and support the preservation of democracy,
and are engaged against the advancing digitization in the health-care sector.

A proverb says: “Those who speak the truth need a fast horse.”

The eager readers know the rest.

Dear Mr. Reitschuster, I hope I have quoted you correctly.

Keep it up; the truth always prevails. To all alternative media, such as the Democratic Resistance, Rubicon, KenFM, Beatle TV, and all that I’ve forgotten and are democratic, to all police officers, soldiers, judges, public prosecutors, fellow citizens and sincere politicians, as well as to all social media: We need you, for us and our children.

Have a long and peaceful life. Yours, Yves.

COMMUNIST CHINESE GOVERNMENT COMBINES ‘TRACK AND TRACE’ CORONA SYSTEM WITH OPPRESSIVE SOCIAL CREDIT SCORE

Coming to America?

See the source image

Chinese Government Combines ‘Track and Trace’ Corona System With Social Credit Score

VIDEO: 

BY PAUL JOSEPH WATSON

SEE: https://www.infowars.com/chinese-government-combines-track-and-trace-corona-system-with-social-credit-score/;

republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:

The Communist government of China has combined its coronavirus ‘track and trace’ system with the country’s notorious social credit score.

As the Epoch Times’ Joshua Philipp explains, fears that the new COVID surveillance system would be used for “totalitarian social monitoring” are being realized in China.

“The local government of China’s Jiangsu province has launched a new social control system that combines the CCP’s health code program with the regime’s social credit system to create what they’re calling a civilization code,” Philipp reported.

The new system ranks each citizen via a “civilization score” and then places them in a category which determines whether they get priority access to services or are punished and restricted.

The new system represents an expansion of the social credit score and is being initially rolled out in the city of Suzhou and will apply to everyone over the age of 18.

Last year, we also highlighted how Chinese citizens would need to pass a facial recognition test to access the Internet in another expansion of the social credit score system.

In August 2019, the Communist state bragged about how it had prevented 2.5 million “discredited entities” from purchasing plane tickets and 90,000 people from buying high speed train tickets in the month of July alone.

As we document in the video below, the onerous social credit score system is literally designed to punish and socially ostracize dissidents who express controversial opinions.

In the age of social media de-platforming, an identical system is gradually being introduced in the west, where people who have been banned by social media networks for ‘offensive’ views are then also de-platformed by companies and banks.

 

NEW CDC DATA SHOWS 94% OF COVID-19 DEATH CASES HAD UNDERLYING POOR HEALTH CONDITIONS

BY BARBARA CACERES

SEE: https://thevaccinereaction.org/2020/09/new-cdc-data-shows-94-percent-of-covid-19-death-cases-had-underlying-poor-health-conditions/;

republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:

The U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Sept. 2 weekly update on COVID-19 mortality in the U.S., which is published by the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), reported 170,566 deaths “involving COVID-19” that occurred between Feb. 1, 2020 and Aug. 29, 2020.1 During the same time period there were 1,841,678 deaths from all causes. About 94 percent of the death cases confirmed to be COVID-19-related involved other coinciding infections or underlying poor health conditions, including influenza, pneumonia, hypertension, diabetes, and heart disease.

Child Deaths from COVID-19 Rare

Of the deaths involving COVID-19, 79 percent were over age 65 and 31 percent were over age 85. Children under age 14 accounted for 0.00035 percent of deaths.

Fifty four percent of all deaths involving COVID-19 were male. Provisional death reports for COVID-19 peaked on Mar. 18, 2020, which also coincides with the peak for deaths from all causes in the United States.2 Hispanic and non-Hispanic black residents experienced disproportionate deaths involving COVID-19.3

Most COVID-19 Deaths in Nursing Hospitals, Inpatient Facilities

Almost 65 percent of deaths involving COVID-19 occurred in a nursing home or other inpatient healthcare facility, whereas 29 percent of all-cause deaths during the same period occurred in an inpatient setting. Roughly 21 percent of COVID-19 deaths occurred in nursing homes, while approximately 18 percent of all-cause deaths occurred in nursing homes.

Home is the most common location (33.6 percent) for people who die of all causes in the U.S.4

94 Percent of COVID-19 Death Cases Had Other Underlying Health Problems

For six percent of the coronavirus-associated deaths, COVID-19 was the only cause mentioned. For COVID-19-related death cases in persons who had other infections or conditions in addition to COVID-19, on average, there were 2.6 additional conditions or causes per COVID-related death. The most common respiratory conditions included influenza, pneumonia, respiratory failure, and adult respiratory distress syndrome.

Comorbid circulatory diseases included hypertension, cardiac arrest, ischemic heart disease, heart failure, and cardiac arrhythmia. Approximately 16 percent of the death certificates listed diabetes, and 11 percent stated that vascular and unspecified dementia contributed or was the cause of death. Three percent had intentional or unintentional injury, poisoning or other type of adverse event listed.5

Reports of COVID-19 Deaths Based on Provisional Data

The NCHS uses incoming data from death certificates to produce provisional COVID-19 death counts.6 These include deaths occurring within the 50 states and the District of Columbia.

When COVID-19 is reported as a cause of death—or when it is listed as a “probable” or “presumed” cause—the death is coded using a new ICD-10 code, and this code can include cases with or without laboratory confirmation.

Provisional death counts may not match counts from other sources, such as media reports or numbers from county health departments. Counts by NCHS often track 1–2 weeks behind other data, and may be delayed for the following reasons:

  • Death certificates take time to be completed. There are many steps to filling out and submitting a death certificate. Waiting for test results can create additional delays.
  • States report at different rates. Currently, 63 percent of all U.S. deaths are reported within 10 days of the date of death, but there is significant variation between states.
  • It takes extra time to code COVID-19 deaths. While 80 percent of deaths are electronically processed and coded by NCHS within minutes, most deaths from COVID-19 must be coded by a person, which takes an average of seven days.
  • Other reporting systems use different definitions or methods for counting deaths.

Provisional counts are not final and are subject to change. Counts from previous weeks are continually revised as more records are received and processed. Counts do not include all deaths that occurred during a given time period, especially for more recent periods.

However, NCHS estimates how complete their numbers are by looking at the average number of deaths reported in previous years. Death counts should not be compared across states since some states report deaths on a daily basis, while other states report deaths weekly or monthly. State vital record reporting may also be affected or delayed by COVID-19 related response activities.

CDC Guidelines for Certifying Coronavirus Deaths

Death certificates contain two parts. Part I is for reporting the sequence of conditions that led directly to death. The immediate cause of death, which is the disease or condition that directly preceded death and is not necessarily the underlying cause of death (UCOD), are reported first and the conditions that led to the immediate cause of death should be reported in a logical sequence in terms of time and etiology below it. The UCOD, which is “the disease or injury which initiated the train of morbid events leading directly to death or… the circumstances of the accident or violence which produced the fatal injury,” should be reported on the lowest line used in Part I.7

Other significant conditions that contributed to the death, but are not a part of the sequence in Part I, should be reported in Part II. Not all conditions present at the time of death have to be reported—only those conditions that actually contributed to death.8

In cases where a definite diagnosis of COVID-19 cannot be made, but it is suspected or likely (e.g., the circumstances are compelling within a reasonable degree of certainty), CDC reporting guidelines state:

It is acceptable to report COVID-19 on a death certificate as “probable” or “presumed.” In these instances, certifiers should use their best clinical judgement in determining if a COVID–19 infection was likely. However, please note that testing for COVID-19 should be conducted whenever possible.9

Jeff Lancashire, acting associate director for communications at the NCHS, said that, while 94 percent of death certificates that mention COVID-19 also listed other conditions, the underlying cause of death was COVID-19 in almost all of them. “ The underlying cause of death is the condition that began the chain of events that ultimately led to the person’s death,” he said. “In 92 percent of all deaths that mention COVID-19, COVID-19 is listed as the underlying cause of death.”10

Are CDC guidelines used to “pad” COVID-19 numbers?

Scott Jensen, MD, a family physician and Minnesota state senator, has publicly challenged the CDC’s guidelines for permitting presumed or probable cases of COVID to be listed on death certificates, saying they are “ridiculous” and could be misleading the public. Dr. Jensen states that the CDC’s death certificate manual tells physicians to focus on “precision and specificity,” but the coronavirus death certification guidance runs completely counter to that axiom.11

Dr. Jensen also reacted to Dr. Anthony Fauci’s response to a question about the potential for the number of coronavirus deaths being “padded,” in which the NIAID director described the prevalence of “conspiracy theories” during “challenging” times in public health. Dr. Jensen said:

I would remind him that anytime health care intersects with dollars it gets awkward. Right now Medicare has determined that if you have a COVID-19 admission to the hospital you’ll get paid $13,000. If that COVID-19 patient goes on a ventilator, you get $39,000; three times as much. Nobody can tell me, after 35 years in the world of medicine, that sometimes those kinds of things [don’t have] impact on what we do.

Most Americans Live with Chronic Disease

That so many COVID-19 deaths are associated with chronic disease highlights the risk factor inherent in underlying poor health conditions. The CDC reports that six in ten Americans lives with a chronic disease, and four in ten have two or more. These chronic diseases—heart, lung and kidney disease, cancer, diabetes, and Alzheimer’s disease—are the leading cause of death and disability, and are the leading drivers in the nation’s $3.5 trillion in annual health care costs,12 as well as raise the risk of severe illness from the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus infection.13

Obesity is one of the most common underlying conditions increasing one’s risk for severe illness and about 40 percent of U.S. adults are obese.  The more underlying medical conditions people have, the higher their risk.14

As our long national nightmare of “15 days to flatten the curve” drags into its sixth (sixth!) month, many of our nation’s governors and bureaucrats are inventing new ways to wield their power.

On August 31, without much fanfare and with almost no news coverage, Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine (R-Lost His Way) ordered Interim Director of Health Lance M. Himes to amend the insidious (and unconstitutional) health order the state’s citizens have been suffering under since March to create what amounts to FEMA camps. The order purports to “avoid an imminent threat with a high probability of widespread exposure to COVID-19 with a significant risk of substantial harm to a large number of people in the general population, including the elderly and people with weakened immune systems and chronic medical conditions.”

Never mind that deaths and hospitalizations have been on the decline in Ohio since July 1.

DeWine has been using an archaic sentence in the Ohio Revised Code, which gives the health director “ultimate authority” during a pandemic, to order everything from shutdowns to a statewide mask order to school closings. Several of these orders have been overturned by judgeswho have ruled them unconstitutional, but that hasn’t stopped DeWine from continuing to pile more orders onto the original abomination.

The latest order involves the construction and use of what are essentially FEMA camps to isolate individuals “who are unable to safely self-quarantine in their place of residence and to isolate those diagnosed with or showing symptoms of COVID-19.”

The order gives examples of the circumstances that might lead to confinement (internment?) in a camp.

Examples of the types of persons included in this order are those who test positive for COVID-19 who do not require hospitalization but need isolation (including those exiting from hospitals); those who have been exposed to COVID-19 who do not require hospitalization; and asymptomatic high-risk individuals needing social distancing as a precautionary measure.

The language in the order mirrors the text of a Frequently Asked Questions section on FEMA’s website about non-congregate sheltering, outlining the agency’s support for such measures.

The State of Ohio, and likely many other states, entered into an agreement with FEMA in March, “authorizing applicants to apply for emergency protective measures including non-congregate sheltering.”

Whether or not individuals testing positive for COVID-19 will be required to “shelter” in these camps is to be “determined by a local public health official’s direction or guidance and should be based on individual needs.”

The order is vague enough to give local mini-dictators plenty of reason to believe they have the power to order people into these camps… er… shelters.

DeWine plans to make these facilities a reality by ordering the Ohio Emergency Management Agency (EMA) to:

…secure the necessary approvals for the use of non-congregate sheltering statewide and local government agencies should take all necessary actions to identify both public and private facilities, secure available space, and enter into any contracts or mutual aid agreements that may be necessary to procure, equip, and operate non-congregate shelters throughout the state. In the event state officials determine there is a need for the state to operate a non-congregate shelter, the Ohio EMA shall coordinate with the appropriate state entities.

Where will these camps, if they become necessary, be set up? Some will be located on the campuses of public colleges and universities, where property will be, essentially, commandeered by the state, in an effort to isolate COVID-positive cases.

Public colleges and universities are directed to make available vacant grounds, buildings, and facilities of such college or university as determined to be necessary and suitable after reasonable consultation between the respective college or university officials and the local board of health, Ohio EMA, or county emergency management agency for temporary use as non-congregate sheltering to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

The colleges and universities have been ordered to negotiate mutual aid agreements with local boards of health, Ohio EMA, and/or county emergency management agencies. and schools are further ordered to “impose reasonable restrictions on the use of and access to the property and facilities.” (One can only hope the schools will decide to designate the sections of their campuses set aside for safe spaces for the new FEMA camps.)

State Rep. Candace Keller, a Republican, wants to know how DeWine plans to pay for the state’s share of these facilities, seeing as there’s no line-item in the budget for them. But as we’ve seen, the governor doesn’t need the legislature to enact his orders—he’s bypassed them every step of the way with his (did I mention they’re unconstitutional?) health department diktats.

This order comes as deaths and hospitalizations for COVID-19 have been in decline in Ohio:

(Ohio Department of Health data)

While there have been localized spikes in the number of cases (DeWine blames people going to church and attending family gatherings), the number of people dying or needing hospitalization in Ohio as a result of the COVID-19 virus has plummeted. That hasn’t stopped DeWine from increasing the restrictions on Ohio citizens, including a statewide mask order that, inexplicably, came as deaths and hospitalizations were on the decline in the state.

And now he’s ordering that our poop be monitored for outbreaks of COVID-19. If you had any illusions that these overwrought orders would be ending anytime soon, I’m sorry to disappoint you. We sailed right past “15 days to flatten the curve” in March and have now entered the phase where we are being told not to expect to return to any sense of normalcy until the coronavirus is all but eradicated from the earth.

MASSACHUSETTS SCHOOLS CALL COPS & SOCIAL SERVICES ON PARENTS WHOSE KIDS MISS ZOOM VIDEO CLASSES

(Boston Globe) Massachusetts school officials have reported dozens of families to state social workers for possible neglect charges because of issues related to their children’s participation in remote learning classes during the pandemic shutdown in the spring, according to interviews with parents, advocates, and reviews of documents.

In most cases, lawyers and family advocates said, the referrals were made solely because students failed to log into class repeatedly. Most of the parents reported were mothers, and several did not have any previous involvement with social services.

The trend was most common in high-poverty, predominantly Black and Latino school districts in Worcester, Springfield, Haverhill, and Lynn; advocates and lawyers reported few, if any, cases from wealthier communities.

Among those parents is Em Quiles, who struggled to work her full-time job while overseeing her young son’s schooling. During remote class time, her 7-year-old was largely supervised by his teenage brother, who had his own school work to do.

Quiles said she told staff at Heard Street Discovery Academy in Worcester in the spring that her work schedule made it tough to assist with virtual schooling and she struggled to navigate the school’s online platforms. “They didn’t offer any help,” she said.

Then in June, Quiles was stunned to receive a call from the state’s Department of Children and Families. The school had accused Quiles of neglect, she was told, because the 7-year-old missed class and homework assignments.“I couldn’t believe it,” she said.

Quiles lived one of the worst nightmares for a parent: A neglect charge, if substantiated, can lead to removing a child from their home. It came during a period of unprecedented educational disruption, in which parents, students, and schools all struggled with ad-hoc routines that challenged even the most engaged, but would result in some being singled out…

DR. JOSEPH MERCOLA: THE FAUCI FILES

STORY AT-A-GLANCE

  • Dr. Anthony Fauci has served as the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) since 1984, but has yet to come out with the “Big One” — a vaccine or infectious disease treatment that will allow him to retire with a victory under his belt
  • Fauci has flip-flopped on the use of masks, first mocking people for wearing them, and then insisting they should. In mid-July, he suddenly urged governments to “be as forceful as possible” on mask rules
  • While Fauci still claims there’s only anecdotal evidence supporting the use of hydroxychloroquine, and that the drug doesn’t work for COVID-19, the scientific support for it goes as far back as 2005
  • In April, Fauci praised the NIAID-sponsored drug Remdesivir, saying it "has a clear-cut and significant positive effect in diminishing the time to recovery." Overall, the improvement rate for the drug was 31%
  • Research now shows hydroxychloroquine reduced mortality by 50% when given early, and many doctors anecdotally claim survival rates close to 100%. Despite such excellent results, Fauci continues to disparage and cast doubt on hydroxychloroquine

At 79 years old, Dr. Anthony Fauci — who has served as the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) since 1984 — has yet to come out with the “Big One” — a vaccine or infectious disease treatment that will allow him to retire with a victory under his belt.

He failed to create a successful vaccine for AIDS, SARS, MERS and Ebola. A COVID-19 vaccine is essentially his last chance to go out in a blaze of glory. As evidenced by his history, he will stop at nothing to protect Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine and Gilead’s antiviral Remdesivir.

He even threw tried and true pandemic protocols out the window when COVID-19 hit, turning into an unquestioning spokesman for draconian liberty-stripping measures instead. To echo a question asked by Dr. Sal Martingano in his article,1 “Dr. Fauci: ‘Expert’ or Co-Conspirator,” why are we not questioning this so-called expert?

Fauci ‘Has Been Wrong About Everything’

The risk we take when listening to Fauci is that, so far, he’s been wrong about most things. In a July 14, 2020, “Opposing View” editorial in USA Today, White House adviser Peter Navarro, director of the Office of Trade and Manufacturing Policy, stated that Fauci “has been wrong about everything that I have interacted with him on.”2 According to Navarro, Fauci’s errors in judgment include:3

Opposing the ban on incoming flights from China in late January 2020.

Telling the American people the novel virus outbreak was nothing to worry about well into February.

Flip-flopping on the use of masks — first mocking people for wearing them, and then insisting they should. In fact, mid-July, he suddenly urged governments to “be as forceful as possible” on mask rules.4

Claiming there was only anecdotal evidence supporting the use of hydroxychloroquine, when the scientific grounds for it go as far back as 2005, when the study,5 “Chloroquine Is a Potent Inhibitor of SARS Coronavirus Infection and Spread,” was published in the Virology Journal.

Fauci should have been well aware of this publication. According to that study,6 “Chloroquine has strong antiviral effects on SARS-CoV infection of primate cells. These inhibitory effects are observed when the cells are treated with the drug either before or after exposure to the virus, suggesting both prophylactic and therapeutic advantage,” the study authors said. In other words, the drug worked both for prevention and treatment.

As noted by Navarro, more recent research found hydroxychloroquine reduced the mortality rate among COVID-19 patients by 50% when used early.

Interestingly, in a March 24, 2020, interview7 with Chris Stigall, Fauci did say that — were he to speak strictly as a doctor treating patients — he would certainly prescribe chloroquine to COVID-19 patients, particularly if there were no other options.

Then, in August, he flipped back to insisting hydroxychloroquine doesn’t work,8 even though by that time, there were several studies demonstrating its effectiveness against COVID-19 specifically.

So, it appears Fauci has had a hard time making up his mind on this issue as well, on the one hand dismissing the drug as either untested or ineffective against COVID-19, and on the other admitting it would be wise to use, seeing how the options are so limited.

Navarro continues:9

“Now Fauci says a falling mortality rate doesn’t matter when it is the single most important statistic to help guide the pace of our economic reopening. The lower the mortality rate, the faster and more we can open. So when you ask me whether I listen to Dr. Fauci’s advice, my answer is: only with skepticism and caution.”

Fauci Has Done Nothing to Help Unite the Country

While Fauci claims to be exasperated by how political the pandemic has become,10 Robert F. Kennedy Jr. pointed out in an August 2, 2020, Instagram post11 that Fauci himself is, at least in part, part of the problem, as his double standards on hydroxychloroquine have done much to polarize and divide the nation:

“Fauci insists he will not approve HCQ for COVID until its efficacy is proven in ‘randomized, double blind placebo studies.’ To date, Dr. Fauci has never advocated such studies for any of the 72 vaccine doses added to the mandatory childhood schedule since he took over NIAID in 1984. Nor is he requiring them for the COVID vaccines currently racing for approval.

Why should chloroquine be the only remedy required to cross this high hurdle? HCQ is less in need of randomized placebo studies than any of these vaccines since its safety is well established after 60 years of use and decades on WHO’s listed of ‘essential medicines.’

Fauci’s peculiar hostility towards HCQ is consistent with his half century bias favoring vaccines and patent medicines. Dr. Fauci’s double standards create confusion, mistrust and polarization.”

In a June 10, 2020, article,12 Global Research also questioned Fauci’s many attempts to disparage the drug for no apparently valid reason; even promoting the fake (and ultimately retracted) Lancet study that claimed to show hydroxychloroquine was dangerous. At the end of the day, who benefits? Well, certainly it benefits the drug and vaccine industries, which seems to be where Fauci’s loyalties lie. 

Fauci’s Bias Is Hard to Miss

While Fauci is not named on the patents of either Moderna’s vaccine or Remdesivir, the NIH does have a 50% stake in Moderna’s vaccine,13 and the recognition that would come with a successful vaccine launch would certainly include Fauci.

He also has lots to lose — if nothing else, his pride — if Remdesivir doesn’t become a blockbuster, as his NIAID is sponsoring the clinical trials.14 The NIAID also supported the original research into Remdesivir, when it was aimed at treating Ebola.15

His bias here is clear for anyone to see. April 29, 2020, he stated16 Remdesivir "has a clear-cut and significant positive effect in diminishing the time to recovery." How good is that? Patients on the drug recovered in 11 days, on average, compared to 15 days among those receiving a placebo. Overall, the improvement rate for the drug was 31%.

Meanwhile, research17 now shows hydroxychloroquine reduced mortality by 50% when given early, and many doctors anecdotally claim survival rates close to 100%. This still isn’t good enough for Fauci, who continues insisting hydroxychloroquine is a bust.18

His stance on these two drugs certainly doesn’t make sense based on the data alone. But it does make sense if he wants (or has been instructed) to protect the profits of Remdesivir.

As director of NIAID, which has been part of Remdesivir’s development from the start, why wouldn’t he want to see it become a moneymaker for the agency he dedicated his career to? It also makes sense when you consider his primary job is to raise funds for biodefense research, primarily vaccines but also diagnostics and drug therapies.19,20

Fauci Doubts Safety of Russian Vaccine

Early in August 2020, Russia announced they would begin vaccinating citizens with its own COVID-19 vaccine, despite not finishing large-scale human trials.21 The announcement drew skepticism from American infectious disease specialists, including Fauci, who said he has “serious doubts” that Russia’s COVID-19 vaccine is actually safe and effective.22

He’s probably right on that point. It’s hard to imagine you can prove safety and effectiveness in a mere two months of trials. But the fast-tracked vaccine efforts of the U.S. and EU are hardly bound to be significantly better, considering the many shortcuts that are being taken.

Fauci Ignores Two Decades of Failed Coronavirus Vaccines

Despite being in a position to know better, Fauci conveniently ignores the many failed attempts to create other coronavirus vaccines over the past two decades, including vaccines against SARS and MERS. A paper23 by Eriko Padron-Regalado, “Vaccines for SARS-CoV-2: Lessons From Other Coronavirus Strains” reviews some of these past experiences. As noted in the Conservative Review:24

“Since their emergence in 2003 and 2012 respectively, no safe and efficacious human vaccines for either SARS-Cov1 or MERS have been developed.

Moreover, experimental non-human (animal model) evaluations of four SARS-Cov1 candidate vaccine types, revealed that despite conferring some protection against infection with SARS-Cov1, each also caused serious lung injury, caused by an overreaction of the immune system, upon viral challenge.25

Identical ‘hypersensitive-type’ lung injury occurred26 when mice were administered a candidate MERS-Cov vaccine, then challenged with infectious virus, negating the ostensible benefit achieved by their development of promising … ‘antibodies’ … which might have provided immunity to MERS-Cov.

These disappointing experimental observations must serve as a cautionary tale for SARS-Cov2 vaccination programs to control epidemic COVID-19 disease.”

NIAID Safety Controversies and Ethics Violations

When recently asked for a rebuttal to criticism of his leadership during the pandemic, Fauci replied, “I think you can trust me,” citing his long record of service in government medicine. However, that long service record is fraught with ethics and safety lapses.

For example, in 2005, NPR reported27 the NIH tested novel AIDS drugs on hundreds of HIV-positive children in state foster care during the late 1980s and90s without assigning patient advocates to monitor the children’s health, as is required by law in most states.

Fauci was appointed director of the NIAID in 1984. The AIDS research was part of his research portfolio, and the AIDS research division reported directly to him, so these violations occurred on his watch.28 In 2008, two NIH biomedical ethicists published a paper on the controversial practice of using wards of the state as guinea pigs, noting:29

"Enrolling wards of the state in research raises two major concerns: the possibility that an unfair share of the burdens of research might fall on wards, and the need to ensure interests of individual wards are accounted for ... Having special protections only for some categories is misguided. Furthermore, some of the existing protections ought to be strengthened."

Under Fauci, the NIAID became the largest funder of HIV/AIDS in the world.30 Despite that, numerous articles over the years have discussed how AIDS activists have been less than satisfied with Fauci and the NIAID.31,32,33 A 1986 article stated:34

“If Fauci were less intent on amassing power within the federal health bureaucracy … he would have left AIDS treatment research with the NCI, where it began, relying on that institute's proven expertise in organizing large, multisite clinical trials for cancer therapies."

A July 23, 2020, article in Just the News lists several other safety and ethics problems that Fauci has been involved in through the years, including conflict of interest violations in vaccine research.35

Just the News also interviewed NIAID chief of ethics and regulatory compliance Dr. Jonathan Fishbein, whom the NIAID was forced to reinstate in 2005 after it was determined that Fishbein had been wrongly fired in retaliation for raising concerns about lack of safety in some of the agency’s research:36

“Fishbein said … Fauci failed to take responsibility for the managers and researchers working below him when signs of trouble emerged, allowing problems to persist until others intervened. ‘Fauci is all about Fauci,’ Fishbein said. ‘He loves being the headline. It’s his ego.’”

Fauci’s Connections to Wuhan Lab

By now, you probably also know that the NIAID funded gain-of-function research on coronaviruses at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. As reported by Newsweek:37

“In 2019, with the backing of NIAID, the National Institutes of Health committed $3.7 million over six years for research that included some gain-of-function work. The program followed another $3.7 million, 5-year project for collecting and studying bat coronaviruses, which ended in 2019, bringing the total to $7.4 million.”

This money was not given directly, but rather funneled to the Wuhan lab via the EcoHealth Alliance. According to a recent report by The Wall Street Journal,38 the NIH is now insisting EcoHealth Alliance submit all information and materials from the Wuhan lab before it’s allowed to resume funding.

Fauci is a longtime proponent of dangerous gain-of-function research. In 2003, he wrote an article39 published in the journal Nature on how “the world needs new and creative ways to counter bioterrorism.”

“We will pursue innovative approaches for modulating innate immunity to induce and enhance protection against many biological pathogens, as well as simple and rapid molecularly based diagnostics to detect, characterize and quantify infectious threats,” Fauci wrote.

“These are lofty goals that may take many years to accomplish — but we must aspire to them. Third, we must enormously strengthen our interactions with the private sector, including biotechnology companies and large pharmaceutical corporations.

Many biodefence-related products that we are pursuing do not provide sufficient incentives for industry — the potential profit margin for companies is tenuous, and there is no guarantee that products would be used.

Therefore, we will seek non-traditional collaborations with industry, for example guaranteeing that products will be purchased if companies sign up … so that we can quickly make available effective vaccines and treatments …”

With that, there can be little question about which team Fauci is on. He’s on the side of drug and vaccine makers, and has been for decades. There’s no money to be made by either the agency or its private collaborators from natural products such as vitamin D, vitamin C, quercetin or its drug equivalent, hydroxychloroquine. All of these are dirt-cheap and off patent.

Prediction Track Record = Null

Fauci’s predictions for COVID-19 mortality have also turned out to be as inaccurate as all of his previous predictions. In 1987, he predicted heterosexual infection of HIV/AIDS would rise to 10% by 1991. It never rose above 4%.

He predicted the bird flu would result in 2 million to 7 million deaths. In the end, the avian H5N1 flu killed 440 worldwide. He sought billions of dollars to combat the threat of Zika, a virus that fizzled without making much of an impact anywhere.40

When you look at his track record, you realize he’s predicted “nightmare” scenarios for decades, none of which have materialized.  Last but not least, Dr. Fauci serves on Bill Gates leadership council.


 

 

AMERICA’S FRONTLINE DOCTORS: WHITE COAT SUMMIT SESSION TO PROMOTE HYDROXYCHLOROQUINE & EXPOSE COVID-19 MISINFORMATION

American life has fallen casualty to a massive disinformation campaign. We can speculate on how this has happened, and why it has continued, but the purpose of the inaugural White Coat Summit is to empower Americans to stop living in fear.

If Americans continue to let so-called experts and media personalities make their decisions, the great American experiment of a Constitutional Republic with Representative Democracy, will cease.

The first White Coat Summit was held in Washington D.C. July 27-28, 2020. Its purpose was to have frontline doctors talk directly to the American public, educate and inform policy leaders, and create alliances to enable physicians to heal our nation.

This is the culmination of months-long research from all sources. It explains how Americans have come to be in the grip of fear. All the myths and all the misconceptions about a safe, generic drug that has been FDA approved for 65 years, given to pregnant women, breastfeeding women, children, the elderly and the immune-compromised for years and decades without complication, are finally put in the trash heap where they belong. You will have the indisputable proof that you have been massively lied to, often very intentionally. At first you will first be heartbroken. And then you will be furious. Good. Because then you will demand change.

Compendium of HCQ studies:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1l6y3L_KGb1ilMW0FaP4VZsd7WvX2IU3z/view

The safety of HCQ is irrefutable. The evidence supporting HCQ efficacy against Covid-19 is also overwhelming. All negative HCQ studies have used either: too much, used it alone (it needs Zinc), or used it late (it should be early.) The treatment dose is 200 mg HCQ twice a day for five days + Zinc 50 (elemental) daily. The prophylactic dose is 400 mg HCQ weekly + Zinc 50 (elemental) daily. (There are studies right now to see if HCQ 200 mg. weekly is sufficient.) This is very low dose. (The usual dose of HCQ in Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis is 400 mg. daily for years.) There are telemedicine physicians who are aware of the facts and if you are concerned about this, please see one. It is also over the counter in many places in the world including Indonesia and most of South America.

In the following RAIR Foundation USA exclusively translated video, German Doctor Guido Hofmann, discusses the introduction of a global dictatorship under the guise of an alleged pandemic.

Germans have long known that German Chancellor Angela Merkel has totalitarian instincts. Many Germans have feared that If given the chance, Merkel would try to establish total control over society. Could their fears be coming to fruition?

Is Merkel using the virus to prepare the ground for a totalitarian dictatorship?

Video Transcript: many thanks to Miss Piggy

Good morning, friends.

I’m only a medical doctor with a small practice on the outskirts of town.

I actually don’t know what I should say about what is happening in Germany right now.

I can really sum it up as a medical doctor, as a vaccination doctor, and as someone
who has for his whole life treated people with upper respiratory infections.

I can only say it again and again, “IT HAS NOTHING, NOTHING AT ALL, TO DO WITH A VIRUS, 
WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE.”

It is… and it is WORLDWIDE.

The introduction of a WORLD DICTATORSHIP, unfortunately you have to put it that way.

I’ve spent 1,500 hours in the past few months on this, because I knew it wasn’t medical.
I could never figure out the agenda, since the goals are so intertwined.

And last week in Speyer I was asked, before, don’t know, around a thousand people, I spoke —
I’ve never spoken to people before, neither dared nor brave enough to do it

But now it is like…that we…

It’s so unbelievable what’s going on, and they’re all playing along with
…and if… whoever still doesn’t believe… that we have a dictatorship, you can’t 
put it any other way, of course it is disguised, of course it is installed bit by bit.

But that people who are now opposed to excessive measures and go for the reintroduction, 
reinstatement of our practically basic rights onto the streets.

The forefathers of our Constitution wrote this into the Constitution as well.

And what they are doing right now, many will still not notice it, and will 
say “What’s the point of this?”

I can only say: COURAGE… anger… and a big heart.

That’s what unites us, and it has nothing, absolutely nothing to do with a virus.
 

SHOCKING NEW LAW: GERMAN STATE WILL CONFISCATE CHILDREN AND PLACE THEM IN GOVERNMENT ‘FORCED ISOLATION’ CORONA FACILITIES (VIDEO)

In the below RAIR Foundation USA exclusively translated video, German lawyer Markus Haintz slams the Infection Protection Act, which threatens parents with child confiscation if they do not comply with ludicrous isolation restrictions if their children are found positive for the Chinese coronavirus, or even if they came into contact with someone who tested positive. Haintz believes that the overtly tyrannical nature of the legislation was designed “to create fear.”

“This is child abuse,” he declared during an interview with journalist Margarita Bityutski. As reported at RAIR, Germans are appalled at the ways the German government is using the coronavirus to impose arbitrary policies having nothing to do with sound science echoing trends throughout the West.

The attorney, who represents citizens through a non-profit legal organization, states that the law as written allows for very little legal recourse for parents, whose children can be removed and placed in “forced isolation” in a government facility. “Of course I don’t think it is legally acceptable in any way and it is completely excessive,” Haintz stated. “It leaves one speechless and I’m not sure if the authorities are aware of what they have done,” he continued.

The attorney further stated that the testing itself is “non-validated,” yet determines whether children will be put in forced isolation in their homes. If parents are told to isolate their children, the government has granted itself the ability to enter the homes of the children to make sure they are isolated whenever they deem fit.

To emphasize this point, Haintz read from a letter given to parents whose children were found to be in contact with someone who tested positive for the coronavirus:

“Your child is being summonsed by the public health department. You can also be summonsed together with your child. Furthermore, you are obligated to allow the health department’s representative to enter your residence for the purpose of questioning or examinations and to provide information upon request for any circumstances concerning their state of health.”

“If you do not comply with the orders concerning your isolation, the isolation will be done by force with suitable accommodation in a locked facility. The basic right to freedom of a person can be restricted in this respect.”

“That it has come to this in Germany, so quickly, even shocks me,” he said.

You have to think about what is stated there: “If you don’t comply, we’ll take your kids away”.

This may be the shock of a lifetime for the child. It is so unlawful that it has nothing to do with the practice of an official constitutional state. This is, at best, coercion.

For me, it’s a completely different kind of crime that’s being committed. Actually, something like this is in fact child abuse. This is child abuse.

I hope these people working for the authorities will have to answer for what they are doing.

That it has come to this in Germany, so quickly, even shocks me.

Mr. Haintz, you are a lawyer. I would like to discuss with you the legal side of a matter which is now occupying many parents in Germany. Based on the Infection Protection Act, health authorities can require families to isolate children suspected of having Corona within the family, and if this is not done, children can even be placed in closed facility.

What do you say as a lawyer?

Yes, that’s what the authorities are demanding in some cases.

Whether they can demand that, now that’s perhaps a completely different question, because I think it is legally untenable. My most prominent case was in Bruchsal near Karlsruhe, where a teacher tested positive who taught in two classes.

Following that, 46 students or their parents received letters with the corresponding forced isolation under the threat of severe punishment, including removing the children and forced isolation in a government facility.

Of course I don’t think it is legally acceptable in any way and it is completely excessive. It leaves one speechless and I’m not sure if the authorities are aware of what they have done. This probably will not stand in court, but the problem we have is for the parents.

Of course, legally, they are the first who have to pay, in advance. Sometimes they don’t even know what their rights are. That’s where I see the main problem, because if the authorities do something grossly illegal, you can still defend yourself legally. Which probably would have been possible in this case. Now however, with the Infection Protection Act, and the way it is formulated, it is simply being abused by many. There is no other way to formulate it.

It is actually written within the German constitution, I mean, in the Infection Protection Act.

At the moment, it seem to be almost as valid as the constitution. So, it actually states this and these threats are justified in this way. I also have a letter which was handed out to parents of children who were in contact with a person who had Corona. It was in the county of Ludwigslust-Parchim in Mecklenburg Vorpommern.

I can just briefly quote to you what is written. It’s actually severe, what is written here. It seems more like a summons for serious criminals. I will quote a few sentences.

“Your child is being summonsed by the public health department. You can also be summonsed together with your child. Furthermore, you are obligated to allow the health department’s representative to enter your residence for the purpose of questioning or examinations and to provide information upon request for any circumstances concerning their state of health.”

Furthermore it says: “If you do not comply with the orders concerning your isolation, the isolation will be done by force with suitable accommodation in a locked facility. The basic right to freedom of a person can be restricted in this respect.” So it says it right there.

How would you comment on this as a lawyer?

It is an unbelievable scandal.

It’s so illegal, that it leaves one speechless. Just recently I spoke with a doctor from Italy, and he suggested a comparison, which I didn’t really want to repeat, but the way those who test positively are being dealt with there, well, yes, it brings to mind a time from the past.

People are being deliberately excluded because they have some kind of characteristic.

This characteristic is currently the positive Corona test or rather a positive result from Dr. Drosten’s non-validated test. The authorities’ writing such a letters is blackmail.

It is coercion, and not only from a legal point of view. This is so illegal and it has nothing to do with how a functioning constitutional government works. I can’t imagine that this will stand up in court. However, nowadays there remains concern. Once a legal basis has been established, and some time passes, let’s say five, six, seven, months later, this is the result.

That it has come to this in Germany, so quickly, even shocks me.

There is no legal basis to enforce it in this way. It’s necessary to examine everything. So if a teacher enters the room, after having a test that hardly works anyway, for which even Dr. Drosten himself says that results are coincidental, and then to threaten parents with such severity. The parent and the children will be traumatized. This is, at best, coercion.

For me, it’s a completely different kind of crime that’s being committed.

Well, it has nothing to do with a constitutional state.

Can you imagine why the authorities would write such letters?

These authorities are still people, though.

The Infection Protection Act actually provides the wording for these kinds of threats. There could also be fines, which would at least be a lesser punishment.

Why would they choose to go the severe way? What do you think?

Because they want to create fear.

They said from the very beginning that they want to create fear and panic. That was clearly exposed in the leaked letters from the Ministry of the Interior. [SEE RAIR’S REPORTING HERE AND HERE] The government, its ministries and departments cause massive fear.

This fear by way of panic propaganda is wanted, and was wanted from the beginning.

Of course it affects the lower levels of government. There’s always government employee here and there who still believe that there’s a deadly killer virus out there that surpasses anything that has ever been seen before. That’s just not the case. This has apparently not yet been accepted by all authorities and unfortunately not by all the courts.

Therefore, they believe they can take children away from their parents. All I can do is warn these authorities against implementing such an order. It will only create a huge level of escalation. Not just legally, but socially as well. It will no longer be containable.

You have to think about what is stated there: “If you don’t comply, we’ll take your kids away.”

In this manner, it is just unbelievable. If this is implemented, it has nothing to do with a democracy. Period.

When they take this too far, aren’t they shooting themselves in the foot? Even as a journalist, I normally always try to behave very neutrally. However, I have to say, it’s not possible to react neutrally in this case. Isn’t it almost stupid for them to do something like this?

I actually asked myself with my case in Bruchsal and the letters that were written, if it is wasn’t perhaps someone who was from “our side”. I don’t have to be neutral, and I’m not, because I defend democracy, and others want to abolish it. So I think, if I worked for the authorities and sent something like this came out, then it might be to create a certain reaction. That means, by writing such a letter, I knew that someone would really overreact. I think the school authorities or the school in Bruchsal were somewhat horrified about what was going on, because parents reacted accordingly. As a result, the authorities were under pressure and even received threats. I don’t approve of that, but I can understand it very well, because parents were being threatened with having their children taken away.

I believe some government employees simply ignore their common sense and then think they can do whatever they want. So what’s happening here right now is that those who have tested positive are treated like lepers. They are interned, and the choice of words is carefully chosen, but used deliberately.

Some child protection agencies have reacted with shock and have already spoken out.

They all say the same thing. They say that it’s not proportionate and that children’s rights must always have priority.

Do you think that the statements of the child protection agencies could have any effect on the government?

I think, with regard to our government, or those governing, that they are largely resistant to receiving any advice.

So you really have to exert massive pressure. We’re doing that with our fund-sharing lawsuits.

We take action by submitting suits by the hundreds and thousands, so people can defend themselves. Right now the government is implementing grossly illegal orders and instructions, and whatever else, laws and regulations. The first problem people have is how to defend themselves legally.

We’re now turning the table on the game a bit. We’re trying to ensure a level playing field.

It’s unacceptable that a single mother is blackmailed by the government or state authorities, and is unable to defend herself, so she has to be afraid of going to prison and that her children will be taken away. That’s simply a crime. If something like this stands up in court, then I’ve really come to the point where i have to say Germany is no longer a democracy. I’m not sure if it will stand up in court. I don’t know yet.

Actually, something like this is in fact child abuse. This is child abuse. I hope the people doing this for the authorities will have to answer for what they are doing.

You spoke briefly about Klage Paten.de (lawsuit fund-sharing). Can you briefly explain what that is? Who participates in it, who supports it, and how does it work?

It is a non-profit association which we’ve restructured in order to create a level playing field in the courts. This is how it works. We’ve taken advantage of digitization to simplify the process to a great extent. The facts of the case can be recorded digitally. This has led to lower costs. Following that, the case is then given to individual lawyers.

This way, for example, just recently we pressed criminal charges against Ms. Esken.

We have a written draft that could be put into the software, so everyone can enter their data and send it directly to their own prosecutor’s office. Normally what would cost 400 to 500 Euros in the past by going to a lawyer. We accomplish this now by collecting donations, which come from supporting members.

That’s how we provide sample letters, for example, so people can become active themselves. So that they can defend themselves. It’s the same thing when a lawsuit is necessary. Very much of the process is digital, which is then forwarded directly to the responsible lawyers.

It is simply a way to lower the costs. You can also make donations. It is a non-profit organization helping anyone who cannot afford legal assistance. This way we can create a level playing field, which is urgently necessary.

You just mentioned Saskia Esken. You must be referring to her statement in which she called demonstrators “Covid idiots”. How many lawsuits have been filed now? Do you know? And do you think it will help?

I believe we’ve had two to three thousand downloads so far, without really having advertised it. I assume that there are umpteen thousand criminal charges being filed. In this case, there wasn’t a lawsuit filed. Of course, the authorities have to process all these charges. This has an affect and it is meant to have an affect. The government should take notice.

We’ll drive up the costs for the government. They’ll rise astronomically for these illegal measures.

If we should win a declaratory judgment, for example, regarding the demonstration in Berlin on August 1 [SEE RAIR’S REPORTING], we could possibly have everybody who attended sue against the illegal interruption of the demonstration. This way, we manage to create immense costs for the Government that conducted this illegal enforcement of injustice. That is exactly our objective.

So if the city of Berlin has to pay tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands or millions of euros, perhaps at some point they will have to talk to us. It’s simply a method to finally give citizens the opportunity to defend themselves, because that’s what is missing at the moment.

Are there other lawsuits related to Corona measures?

At the moment the most frequent cases concern the right to demonstrate. Currently, the way it works now, if you don’t have a good lawyer with you, the authorities have a relatively easy job.

That doesn’t mean it’s like that in every city, but I was in a negotiation meeting, and we were told: ‘We will enforce the mandatory mask ordinance.’ To which I said, that’s not negotiation. They just replied that they would do it their way. In the end, we were able to change that, but only with lawyers. That’s why we also made this digital now. So every initiative knows, first of all, how they can do things themselves, where they are. We only have to intervene later, If necessary. Now people have the opportunity to defend themselves in this area too.

Another big issue is the mandatory masks. At schools for example. [SEE RAIR’S REPORTING] Another big issue is discrimination due to mandatory masks. Stores that thrown people out. Discrimination against people and criminal procedures in connection with that topic.

In other words, everything that in any way has to do with masks, because it leads to many disputes.

And then of course possibly in the future, the forced PCR-test [polymerase chain reaction]. What do I have to do, and what not? What can I refuse to do ? There are very many cases concerning the labor laws.

I was fired because I attended a demonstration. In all these areas in which Corona plays into it, this is where we are carried into. So lawsuits are one aspect, but what about acute situations?

Just to get back to the situation with the children, let’s say the health department is standing in front of my door with the police, who want to take my child with them?

What does one do in such a situation?

In that case I would immediately call a lawyer and I would even call the police, because someone is trying to illegally rob the child of freedom. In this case, I would react drastically. Even when the government acts illegally, I can ask the government for help. Whether I receive that help, is another question.

In this case, call a law firm. Once someone is on the phone, ask them to come immediately. When in doubt, I would also call the police. Ask them to come right away, because your child is being illegally deprived of liberty.

That’s where I would play hardball. Inform the neighborhood.

Set the emotional hurdle as high as possible for this gross injustice. If a lawyer is involved, you just have to get a temporary injunction in court. You must act immediately. It might be such a shock for your child that it will be difficult to recover from.

When you speak about the law, it seems like the Infection Protection Act is above the normal law. Does the normal law still exist? Is the Infection Protection Act now the law above the law? What’s the current situation?

In legal terms, constitutional law is still above normal law, and above constitutional law stands European law as well.

That’s where we still have much to do and will. The Infection Protection Act is there to restrict basic rights that can be restricted. The right to assembly, to be able to leave your residence,

Article 2, the general freedom of movement and so on. These basic rights can be restricted by law, and that’s what is happening at the moment. As a layperson, one has the impression that the law of the land is the Infection Protection Act. That’s understandable.

When I watch how the authorities react, they don’t appear interested in the basic law any longer.

They also admit it quite often. They’ll say: “We’re interrupting this demonstration illegally and you can go to court against it.” The policeman or citizens in uniform, as I call them, say they’ll do what they want and also say they don’t care. They’ll say: “You can take it to court.”

They say themselves that they are acting illegally. They don’t recognize basic right any longer.

It is clearly a reduction of fundamental rights protection.

Do you think that this is a permanent restructuring of the legal system?

That’s a good question. That’s where we are now.

Of course, the best legal system is of no use if no one follows it. So yes, we should have had courts that should be checking the parameters of the Robert Koch Institute.

We have legislation that could be looked at more critically, especially by the opposition, but also by the government. So theoretically, we have a separation of powers, but it doesn’t work as it should at the moment. If you want to get around this or secure it for the future, you have to create mechanisms for when the government declares a lockdown, that it isn’t also responsible for deciding the measure to be taken later.

That would create a very, very high hurdle in the constitution. By calling a state of emergency, the government would disempower itself and someone else decides about it. Concerning the justice system, for example, in criminal law, in no other European country is a judge who set the charges also the judge that decides the verdict. Of course, there’s bias.

Such mechanisms can be changed. They need to be changed urgently to avoid the situation of not always having to justify one’s own decisions, be it as a judge or as a government.

There are plenty of ideas that have to be implemented urgently.

Mr. Haintz, thank you very much for these insights. It was very interesting and I really thank you for this interview.

I thank you. Any time.

 

ANDY STANLEY MOCKS JOHN MACARTHUR, SAYS JESUS NEVER COMMANDED US TO MEET~APOSTATE GETS INVITED TO LIBERTY UNIVERSITY CONVOCATION

Today, during a convocation at the highly-respected Southern Baptist-affiliated Christian Liberty University, notoriously false teacher and serial blasphemer of God, Andy Stanley, told Liberty University students that people, like John MacArthur, who believe that Jesus commands Christians to meet are “wrong.”

Shaking his fist in mocking frustration, Stanley says that Jesus “never played the God card,” and never claimed to be God, and therefore, somehow, he concluded, that Jesus never commanded Christians to meet.

Stanley also complained that John MacArthur said “not so nice” things about him, so he has no interest in having a conversation with him.

Of course, MacArthur was right about Stanley — that Stanley doesn’t know what a church is and definitely does not know how to shepherd a flock. It’s why most of Stanley’s congregation are goats and, hopefully, the few that God has chosen out of that congregation, will see the light and exit that demonic spawn of Hell’s “church” building.

Thankfully, there are men like John MacArthur who are willing to call wolves wolves and speak the truth, stand up to tyranny, and be a light and a witness to the gospel of Jesus Christ despite the many who are unwilling to do so or just want to stand on the sidelines.

Liberty University, the largest Christian University in the country — which was formerly led by Jerry Falwell, Jr. who just resigned amid immoral and erratic behavior — has invited one of the nation’s most notorious false teachers to speak at convocation today.

Andy Stanley, pastor of Northpoint Church in Atlanta, is best known for blaspheming God and denying the Scriptures. Stanley recently announced that his own church would be closed for at least the remainder of this year because of the coronavirus — despite the fact that the coronavirus has had a relatively low impact on church congregations and has not been the monster pandemic it was made out to be.

Stanley is famous for his teaching that the Church needs to “unhitch” from the Old Testament and declaring that the Scriptures are unnecessary to Christianity. He teaches that God loves us more than he loves his own son, Jesus, and believes that even if you don’t know Jesus, you will have a better life by following his teachings — which is patently and absurdly false.

Stanley teaches that openly gay, practicing homosexuals can be saved and also teaches that the Ten Commandments don’t apply to Christians. All-in-all, there can be no doubt that Stanley has been a blasphemer of God and a false teacher that God has allowed to continue to serve his own good purposes.

Now, Liberty University is feeding their own sheep to this wolf.

POLICE STATE NJ GOVERNOR MURPHY USES COVID-19 “CRISIS” TO PROPOSE GUN CONTROL TAXES

See the source image

DON'T YOU LOVE PAYING TAXES IN NEW JERSEY WHICH PAY FOR ALL THOSE FANTASTIC SERVICES?

IT'S PATRIOTIC YOU KNOW!

BY JIM GRANT & Larry Keane

SEE: https://www.ammoland.com/2020/08/nj-governor-uses-covid-crisis-to-propose-gun-control-taxes/;

republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:

U.S.A. -(AmmoLand.com)- As the saying goes, “If at first you don’t succeed, try and try again.” Democratic New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy is taking the mantra to a new level by proposing “stronger gun control” in the Garden State. This time, he’s using the COVID-19 pandemic to raise taxes on law-abiding gun owners and those wishing to exercise their Second Amendment rights.

Gov. Murphy has tried his best during the crisis to penalize lawful gun owners, but now it will be up to the state legislature to approve or reject his new antigun proposals. New Jersey residents shouldn’t hold their breath as antigun Democrats control both chambers by wide margins.

Gun Control for You is Nothing New

More gun control has been a pillar for Gov. Murphy since he took office in 2018. In his first two years in office, he pushed for and signed into law 10 more-stringent gun control laws in a state already known for having some of the strictest gun laws in the country. In 2020, the spreading coronavirus pandemic gave him an opportunity to do even more, and he didn’t delay.

Nearly 5 million Americans became so concerned for their safety and that of their loved ones and property that purchased a firearm for the first time. The reasons were all around us. Reports of local law enforcement becoming stretched thin, criminals being released from jails and quickly committing violent crimes again, and now more recently violent riots and looting in cities and cries of “defund the police” have increased.

Gov. Murphy, who now wants to levy more fees and taxes to close the COVID budget gaps, actively worked to keep gun buyers out of stores. He shut down firearm retailers and related businesses, deeming them “non-essential” at a time when they were most essential. He faced immediate backlash and lawsuits, leading him to backtrack and allow retailers to open again. Gov. Murphy tried explaining his reasoning, stating “I wasn’t thinking about the Bill of Rights.”

Raising Taxes as Means for More Gun Control

New Jersey is already known as a high-taxed blue state operating in the red. Now, to address next year’s budget shortfall and seeing an opportunity to further squelch the Second Amendment, Gov. Murphy proposed massive taxes and fees on firearms and ammunition such that he’d price out thousands of law-abiding citizens from exercising their God-given rights enshrined and protected by the Second Amendment.

Murphy’s budget proposal attempts to close a $5.6 billion – with a “B” – hole in the Garden State by hiking taxes and fees on firearm services and businesses that might generate $6 million. That amounts to one-tenth of one percent. It’s antigun window dressing and the governor knows it.

Gov. Murphy’s proposed antigun increases include raising the handgun purchasing permit fee 2,400 percent from $2 to $50; the cost of a firearm ID card by 1,900 percent from $5 to $100; the price of a handgun carry permit 7,900 percent from $50 to $400; the fee for a gun retail dealer license by 9,900 percent from $50 to $500; and the fee for a firearm manufacturer 900 percent from $150 to $1,500. There are, or course, additional fee increases as well.

If it all sounds familiar, it is.  Gov. Murphy tried and failed at this scheme before. This time, though, he’s tying it to a pandemic.

With more New Jersey handgun applications submitted so far in 2020 than in 2018 and 2019 combined, it’s no wonder law-abiding firearm owners, as well as those considering purchasing a gun for the first time, feel threatened. In trying to persuade the Democratic-controlled New Jersey legislature to approve his budget, Gov. Murphy assured elected officials these are “judiciously” considered hikes that are needed. In other words, be thankful the punishment doesn’t go further.

Antigun Birds of a Feather

Gov. Murphy isn’t alone in using the pandemic to infringe on the constitutional rights of lawful Americans. Gov. Murphy’s northern neighbor, New York Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo, behaved similarly as did New Mexico Democratic Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham. These three governors have something else in common. They all forced gun stores to close during the pandemic despite the Department of Homeland Security saying gun stores are essential business.

So far this year more than 5 million Americans felt so compelled to protect themselves and their families that for the first time they exercised their Second Amendment rights and purchased a firearm. Thousands are from states with these governors at the top.

Punishing those who exercise their rights is abhorrent. Using it as an excuse to cover for poor leadership during a health crisis is not the sort of behavior citizens should expect from their governors.

CALIFORNIA WAGING WAR ON CHURCHES 
CALIFORNIA WAGING WAR ON CHURCHES (Friday Church News Notes, August 28, 2020, www.wayoflife.org, fbns@
wayoflife.org, 866-295-4143) - If you want to know the future of America if Democrats are ever in full control, just 
take a look at California, where the Democrats control the governorship, both houses of the legislature, every 
statewide office, and the leadership of major cities. (When one party controls the office of governor, the state House, 
and the state Senate, that is called a trifecta. Currently, there are 21 Republican trifectas and 15 Democrat trifectas.)
For example, their mindless commitment to Green Energy has resulted in third-world type brownouts across the 
state this summer. Their homosexual rights agenda has silenced free speech. Their clueless homeless policies have 
trashed formerly beautiful cities. Their public schools are removing the names of the nation’s Founding Fathers and 
brainwashing children in Marxist doctrine. That’s a very short list. Oh yes, and they are using the coronavirus 
situation to attack churches. I believe they will back off eventually and leave the churches alone for now, but only 
because (humanly speaking) they don’t have full power. The following is excerpted from “California’s All-Out War 
on Church Worship Intensifies,” PJ Media, Aug. 24, 2020: “California Governor Gavin Newsom and county leaders 
are escalating the state’s war on church worship services, dragging pastors into court and demanding thousands 
of dollars in fines for illegally singing and holding indoor worship services. ... The state is armed with Newsom’s 
no-worship order and subpoenas. ... Liberty Counsel’s Founder Mat Staver says Newsom’s worship ban is clearly 
unconstitutional. ‘The same governor who encourages mass protests, bans all worship and is now fining churches 
for their right to assemble and worship. The same governor who says the church can meet for secular services, 
bans the church from having religious worship. This unconstitutional hostility against religious worship must end.’ 
Newsom has issued a rule against singing and chanting--even in worship in private homes. Then, he outlawed 
church worship. ... The pastor of Godspeak Calvary Chapel in Ventura County, Rob McCoy, was in court on Friday 
and fined $3,000 for holding three socially distanced worship services each Sunday on August 9th and 16th. ... 
McCoy was ready to go to jail on Sunday if need be. Senator Ted Cruz sent a supportive tweet, letting California l
eaders know he’s watching. ‘Thx for standing up for the flock and We the People! The bullies won’t win. We are 
with you, Pastor.’ In Santa Clara, county officers sent in agents to spy on North Valley Baptist Church, according to 
documents the county gave to the court. That church has been fined $10,000 for illegally singing in two worship 
services. Singing. ... In Los Angeles County on Monday, megachurch Pastor John McArthur of Grace Community 
Church went to court for a fourth time to fight the governor’s ban on worship. [The county is seeking $20,000 in 
damages. On August 25, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Mitchell Beckloff refused the county’s request to grant 
a temporary restraining order against the church’s services.] McArthur issued a declaration on Monday, saying it’s 
clear that the County thinks it’s OK to let ‘congregants to gather to worship the Lord in parking lots, in parks, or 
perhaps beaches--but never in any church. From Grace Community Church’s perspective, this is nonsensical, and 
we view it as a direct ban on engaging in the worship which our faith requires.’” The previous report did not 
mention Harvest Church of Pasadena, Calif. “Last week, Pasadena’s chief assistant city prosecutor sent Harvest 
Church Pastor Che Ahn a letter, threatening fines and up to one year in jail for anyone who attends a future service
. [The letter, dated Aug. 13, reads:] ‘This letter is to remind you that violations of these orders are criminal in 
nature. Each day in violation is a separate violation and carries with it a potential punishment of up to one year in 
jail and a fine for each violation. ... Any violations in the future will subject your church, owners, administrators, 
operators, staff, and parishioners to the above-mentioned criminal penalties as well as the potential closure of your
Church.’ ... Liberty Counsel founder and Chairman Mat Staver says, ‘These actions of the City of Pasadena and 
Gov. Gavin Newsom are akin to repressive foreign regimes, not America where the First Amendment guarantees 
freedom of religion’” (“Pasadena Threatens Church,” Christian Headlines, Aug. 20, 2020).

FACEBOOK CRACKS DOWN ON ANTIFA AND QANON
FACEBOOK CRACKS DOWN ON ANTIFA AND QANON (Friday Church News Notes, August 28, 2020, www.wayoflife.
org, fbns@wayoflife.org, 866-295-4143) - Facebook has taken down Antifa and affiliated anarchist groups. 
“Facebook explicitly sought to disrupt Antifa’s operations and said it restricted 1,400 hashtags related to the 
militant leftists and tore down 520 pages and 160 ads. Facebook’s crackdown on Antifa is a harbinger of things to 
come, as the company said it has begun changing its policies to more aggressively go after militia groups 
supporting violent protests. ... Facebook’s policy shift takes aim at the radical organizations’ funding, their ability 
to attract new followers, and the visibility of their content. ... By publicizing its actions against Antifa, Facebook 
has called attention to its more aggressive content moderation approach as affecting all political ideologies” 
(“Facebook cracks down,” The Washington Times, Aug. 20, 2020). At the same time, Facebook has “removed 790 
QANON groups and imposed restrictions on an additional 1,950 QAnon groups on its platform and 10,000 accounts
on Instagram.” QAnon is a hodgepodge of conspiracy theories based on enigmatic reports published by an 
anonymous person known as “Q” who allegedly has access to ultra top-secret information. There is no evidence 
that “Q” is anyone other than some goofball with too much time on his hands having a lark, but QAnon believers 
see Q’s publications as “breadcrumbs” of evidence for their enlightenment. There are fragments of truth, of course,
as in all such things, but largely it is a will-o’-the-wisp world of inscrutable poetry, numerology, secret signals, etc. 
An example of a Q message is this: “Think SC vote to confirm (coming). No Name action. Every dog has its day. 
Enjoy the show.” It is as murky and meaningless as a Nostradamus prophecy. QAnon is an Alice Wonderland in 
which nothing is solid, nothing is sure, nothing means what it seems to mean. The main theme is that presidents 
before Trump were part of a cabal of “deep-state” international evil operators who control America and the world 
(the media, politicians, Hollywood), operating death squads and pedophile rings and a great many other secret 
things. Trump was chosen by military generals to run for president to destroy this cabal, which he will supposedly 
do in a purge called “The Storm” (in which tens of thousands of deep state operatives, including Hilly Clinton, will 
be arrested and subjected to military tribunals, etc.). Trump supposedly flashes secret signals to QAnon insiders. 
One of the theories is that John. R. Kennedy, Jr., and his wife faked their own plane crash deaths and went 
undercover to work with Trump. QAnon is associated with a hodgepodge of conspiracies pertaining to Covid-19, 
9-11, UFOs, 5G technology and mind control, etc. It is as nutty as a fruitcake. While a lot of people are attracted 
to such things and are true believers, a lot of the followers are doubtless just entertaining themselves like “Q” is. 
To any Q followers in Bible-believing churches, we would say, you don’t need Q; you have the infallible Word of 
God! Stop wasting your time chasing will-o’-the-wisp in a rabbit hole and become a serious Bible student and 
disciple of Jesus Christ. And to Facebook and other social media companies, we would say, by all means ban 
violent speech and pornography and pedophilia and such things, but you should not be censors of speech that is 
legal under law. Allegedly nutty or not, it should be none of your business. Liberals and leftists, et al, have plenty 
of their own fake news and conspiratorial nuttiness. Do you want someone censoring your free speech?

Court, in Dennis v. United States, ruled that Eugene Dennis, General Secretary of the Communist Party USA, did 
not have a First Amendment right to free speech if his goal was to overthrow the Constitution. President Dwight 
Eisenhower agreed: “The Bill of Rights contains no grant of privilege for a group of people to destroy the Bill of 
Rights. A group--like the Communist conspiracy--dedicated to the ultimate destruction of all civil liberties, cannot 
be allowed to claim civil liberties as its privileged sanctuary from which to carry on subversion of the Government”

took to the streets of Kenosha to receive their ‘reparations’ by looting stores, burning down buildings, and creating,
once again, complete and total chaos in the streets. And in order for them to receive justice, they have to destroy 
anything and everything in their path--and that included one church that celebrated Black Lives Matter. The

the marquee of which had read Black Lives Matter before being incinerated.’”

FINALLY: THE CDC PUBLISHES COVID-19 TESTING GUIDANCE THAT MAKES SENSE?

BY STACEY LENNOX

SEE: https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/stacey-lennox/2020/08/27/finally-the-cdc-publishes-covid-19-testing-guidance-that-makes-sense-n853342;

republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:

You know it is good news when CNN and their bobbleheads are very upset. On Monday, the CDC updated its testing guidelines to say that not everyone needs to get a test for COVID-19: You only need a test if you have symptoms or have had close contact with an infected individual. They have finally defined close contact to be within six feet for at least 15 minutes.

Direct quote from the updated guidelines:

If you do not have COVID-19 symptoms and have not had close contact with someone known to have a COVID-19 infection – You do not need to be tested.

The guidance went even further:

If you have been in close contact (within 6 feet) of a person with a COVID-19 infection for at least 15 minutes but do not have symptoms:

  • You do not necessarily need a test unless you are a vulnerable individual or your health care provider or State or local public health officials recommend you take one.

It goes on to say that if you are not at high risk, you should monitor yourself for symptoms and get testing under the protocols for symptomatic individuals. This revision should bring an immediate end to screening protocols for employers, schools, and just about everywhere else. And though Dr. Leana Wen, former Planned Parenthood director, says this makes no sense, it is actually entirely consistent.

Nordic Countries Accelerate Opening and Abandon COVID-19 Testing Plans

On July 17, 2020, the agency updated its guidelines to discourage retesting individuals who have recovered from COVID-19. This change was a research-based decision attributed to a greater understanding of how long a person remains infectious. Additionally, it highlighted one of the significant flaws in the PCR test used to detect the virus.

According to the guidance:

If you take a test and test positive, you do not need to repeat a test. Unless your illness required hospitalization, you can return to normal activities (e.g., work or school) after the passage of 10 days from the onset of symptoms and 24 hours from when any fever has subsided on its own (without the aid of any fever-reducing medications).

Research cited on the site has demonstrated that a person with symptoms is no longer infectious under these conditions. In order to be contagious, a person must be harboring viruses capable of replicating with a load significant enough to transmit the disease. These parameters appear to have been established to the CDC’s satisfaction. Generally, the agency has been quite conservative in its assessments, so the evidence must be substantial.

When the CDC advised against retesting, it specifically stated that the PCR test can amplify RNA from a virus no longer capable of replicating for 90 days post-recovery. It would be typical to find this in recovered patients after their immune system has defeated COVID-19.

It can also be found in individuals who have never been infected by the virus. A positive test has never indicated an active infection or the ability to transmit the disease to others in the absence of symptoms. It could simply mean an individual has reactive T cells that eliminate COVID-19 through an exquisite and healthy immune response. This process may still leave viral debris in their airway that a PCR test can detect.

Dr. Beda M. Stadler, a Swiss biologist, emeritus professor, and former director of the Institute of Immunology at the University of Bern, asserted this following the T-cell reactivity findings published in several journals (emphasis mine):

So if we do a PCR corona test on an immune person, it is not a virus that is detected, but a small shattered part of the viral genome. The test comes back positive for as long as there are tiny shattered parts of the virus left. Correct: Even if the infectious viruses are long dead, a corona test can come back positive, because the PCR method multiplies even a tiny fraction of the viral genetic material enough [to be detected].

The Good News the Media and Our Health Experts™ Are Hiding About COVID-19

This reasoning is the same rationale the CDC gives for not retesting recovered individuals. With the addition of research into the specifics of the viral load that must be present to transmit the virus, they have refined their guidelines to follow the science.

All of this information should also help you discard the idea, asserted earlier this week, that there is a man in Hong Kong who was “reinfected.” An infection causes symptoms. Despite being hospitalized, it appears this man never developed any, because his immune system functioned as designed.

Yes, a new genetic strain was detected, so it was not viral debris from his previous infection. However, he developed a healthy amount of anti-bodies, and his T cells recognized enough of the virus to react. He never got sick. This reaction happens in our bodies routinely when we encounter pathogens we have seen all or part of before.

I hate to disagree with a doctor from Yale, but the patient was not reinfected if he had no symptoms. There is no evidence that he had virus particles capable of replication or transmission. If a PCR test was used, it could easily have amplified RNA that remained after a robust immune response. The only reason we got to observe this man’s normal, healthy immune response was because of screening protocols.

University of Hong Kong scientists claim to have the first evidence of someone being reinfected with the virus that causes COVID-19. Genetic tests revealed that a 33-year-old man returning to Hong Kong from a trip to Spain in mid-August had a different strain of the coronavirus than the one he’d previously been infected with in March, said Dr. Kelvin Kai-Wang To, the microbiologist who led the work.

The man had mild symptoms the first time and none the second time; his more recent infection was detected through screening and testing at the Hong Kong airport.

The CDC revised its guidance on testing after the announcement from Hong Kong, so that pretty much lets the cat out of the bag. I would venture a guess that if confronted, Dr. Redfield would have to admit that the myth of the asymptomatic super-spreader is pretty much over.

As COVID-19 Fears Wane President Trump’s Approval Rises in Swing States

Now, everyone who admonishes us for not believing in science is denying science. America’s worst governor is very upset:

The weightlifter’s brother is wrong. This decision was absolutely based on science. His continued oppression of his state is based on politics. And it is his policies related to nursing home patients that are indefensible.

The CDC will most likely begin monitoring for COVID-19 the way they track the flu. They will test individuals who present with flu-like illnesses in their doctor’s office or the emergency room. And Dr. Birx has been clear about the need for sentinel testing in nursing homes and assisted living facilities. Ultimately, this guidance will lead to more accurate counts of cases, where people have an active infection.

It is the beginning of the end for panic porn from the corporate media and justification for needless lockdowns and mandates. It is a great day indeed.

RESTRAINING ORDER AGAINST JOHN MACARTHUR’S CHURCH DENIED BY JUDGE FOR THE FOURTH TIME

Allie Beth Stuckey Interviews John MacArthur Explaining Court Updates New Interview 8/24/20 

BY Caleb Lunetta and Tammy Murga

SEE: https://signalscv.com/2020/08/restraining-order-against-john-macarthurs-church-denied-by-judge-for-the-fourth-time/;

republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:

A restraining order requested by Los Angeles County against the church led by John MacArthur, who is also the chancellor emeritus for The Master’s University and Seminary, has been denied by the judge.

For a number of weeks, MacArthur’s church in Sun Valley, Grace Community Church, has been holding in-person services without social distancing.

The objective of the restraining order, county officials said in a news release distributed last week, is to prohibit the church from holding indoor services. If the court issues the order, any future indoor services could be grounds for a contempt citation and fines of up to $20,000.

However, L.A. County Superior Court Judge Mitchell Beckloff ruled Monday in opposition to the county’s position, denying the restraining order for a fourth time.

“It is deeply disappointing that the court decided not to grant the county’s request for a temporary restraining order prohibiting Grace Community Church from holding indoor services, as it has done several times in recent weeks,” county officials said in their statement distributed after the Monday ruling. “We look forward to a favorable ruling when a full hearing is heard on the matter on Sept. 4.”

County officials said that the church’s meetings violate the county’s health officer order, and that the order has been put in place to “curb the transmission of COVID-19 in order to prevent serious illness and death among our residents.”

“The court correctly concluded that Los Angeles County’s renewed application for a temporary restraining order was both procedurally and substantively defective,” Paul Jonna, the church’s lawyer in the case, said Tuesday in a prepared statement. “This was their fourth unsuccessful attempt to obtain a court order prohibiting indoor worship services at Grace Community Church. We look forward to fully vindicating our clients’ constitutionally protected rights in subsequent proceedings for this important case.”

Beckleoff stated in his ruling the county’s case failed to meet statutory requirements.

The Master’s University

Despite Grace Community deciding to go against the health order, The Master’s University, of which MacArthur was a longtime president of the college, is following the guidelines set forth by the Public Health Department, they say.

“We’re bringing back to campus only students that are taking part in training for the essential workforce and need in-person instruction,” said Corey Williams, chief communications officer for TMU. “A good majority of classes are happening remotely. L.A. County said students with no feasible living options can be in our dorms.”

Events at the university have been canceled until further notice with the exception of protests and faith-based services, social distancing within those few classes that are meeting will be enforced and the university is having deep sanitation occur throughout the campus.

“Deep cleaning and masks are required,” said Williams. “We will also have grab-and-go food options and limit the number of people that can pick up food at a time. We’re a pretty small operation, compared to the vast majority of higher education institutions, so we don’t have to worry.”

The university released a plan earlier in the summer, but following changes to the health order, modified its return guidelines for staff and students. The plan had been developed by the university’s COVID-19 task force set up in March that included an epidemiologist, doctor and on-campus medical staff. They spent the summer putting together all possible reopening plans and they met every week, Williams said.

“It’s going to be strange but we’re very excited to be back,” said Williams.
