Look at the Democrats Covid Lockdowns driving diversity. Well done.

Americans aren't mixing with people in different income brackets or leaving their neighborhoods as much as they did before the pandemic

Americans are mixing with each other and exploring the cities they live in less frequently since the COVID-19 pandemic hit, researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology reported in a recent study.

Los Angeles saw the largest drop in diverse interactions, while Dallas — where pandemic restrictions were the least severe — saw the smallest change.
The study's authors told Bloomberg's CityLab that they hoped cities would use their research to inform policy interventions and reduce segregation.

Zero healthy individuals under the age of 50 have died of COVID-19 in Israel, according to newly released data.

“Zero deceased of 18–49 years of age with no underlying morbidities,” the Israel Ministry of Health (MOH) said in response to a formal request from an attorney.

Officials noted that the statement only applies to COVID-19 deaths where the MOH conducted an epidemiological investigation and had received information about the underlying diseases.

“Zero is a very, very clear number, and cannot be subject to interpretation,” Yoav Yehezkelli, a specialist in internal medicine and medical management, and former lecturer in the Department of Emergency and Disaster Management at Tel Aviv University in Israel, told The Epoch Times.

Zero Young Healthy Individuals Died of COVID-19, Israeli Data Show

In response to Xabi’s recent FOI, the MOH provided the number of cardiac arrest cases from 2018 to 2020. They added, “The information for the years 2021–2022 does not exist in the office.”

The MOH explained that “The registration of the causes of death of deceased persons is carried out, in accordance with the notification of death,” by the Central Bureau of Statistics, adding “the data for the years 2021–2022 have not yet been transferred to the Ministry of Health.”

A study published in April 2022 that analyzed the dataset of the Israel National Emergency Medical Services (EMS) found a 25 percent increase in EMS calls due to cardiac arrests among 16- to 39-year-olds between January–May 2021.

The COVID-19 vaccine rollout began in December 2020.

Yesterday I saw a couple enter a restaurant with their masks on and then immediately take them off once they sat down.

The COVID stupidity is still very much alive and well with certain people.

Virtue signalling at it's finest. However, our local Walmart still has several employees that continue to wear the mask after all this time. I suspect they are also still virgins. Tick bites are healthier. I see the occasional shopping patron in various stores still wearing a mask, yet they are the only one in their group doing so. Gotta be fungi in those lungs by now.

Some is virtue signaling, some is irreparable mental damage that was caused to formative young minds. The only person in Home Depot with a mask on last night was a late-teen boy monitoring the self-checkout lines. Poor guy is probably scared to even touch or be near anyone.

Interesting piece discussing how on the FDA’s website, they maintain a page called: “Why You Should Not Use Ivermectin to Treat or Prevent COVID-19”

However, when you dig into it, you’ll find that the clinical trials that the FDA points to (the ones that are listed on that page) say the exact opposite.

20 Grim Realities Revealed by COVID Lockdowns
Click to expand...

GREAT article. It was hard to choose…but here are my top 3.

10. Madness of crowds.

We’ve all read the classic book “Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds” but we thought it was a chronicle of the past and probably impossible now.

But within an instant, mobs of people fell into medieval-style panics, hunting down non-compliers and hiding from the invisible miasma. They had a mission. They were ferreting out dissidents and ratting out the non-compliers. None of this would have happened otherwise.

Just like in the Cultural Revolution of China, these would-be members of the Red Guard became foot soldiers for the state. Mathias Desmet’s book on mass formation now stands as a classic explanation of how a population devoid of meaningful lives can turn these sorts of political frenzies into deluded crusades. Most of our friends and neighbors went along.


16. The shallowness of the faith communities.

Where were the churches and synagogues? They closed their doors and kept out the people they had sworn to defend. They canceled holy days and holiday celebrations. They utterly and completely failed to protest.

And why? Because they went along with the propaganda that ceasing their ministries was consistent with public health priorities. They went along with the state and media claim that their religions were deeply dangerous to the public.

What this means is that they don’t really believe in what they claim to believe. When the opening finally came, they discovered that their congregations had dramatically shrunk.

It’s no wonder. And who among them did not go along? It was the supposed crazy and odd ones: the Amish, the estranged Mormons and the Orthodox Jews. How non-mainstream they are. How marginal! But apparently, they were among the only ones whose faith was strong enough to resist the demands of princes.


11. Lack of ideological conviction of both right and left.

Both the right and left betrayed their ideals. The right abandoned its affection for limited government, free enterprise and the rule of law.

And the left turned against its traditional stand for civil liberties, equal freedoms and free speech.

They all became compromised, and they all made up fake rationales for this pathetic situation. Had this all begun under a Democrat, the Republicans would have been screaming.

Instead, they went quiet. Then the COVID-19 regime passed to a Democrat and so they stayed quiet while the Republicans, embarrassed at their previous silence, stayed silent for far too long. Both sides proved ineffective and toothless throughout.

And honorable mention to
12. Sadism of the ruling class.

The saddest thing to me is how easily people are manipulated into having the mentality of sheep and how apparant it is that the majority of men today have no balls.

You mean never let government health officials try to save lives endangered by a global pandemic? You've drifted away from reality, man. Your comment is the usual abject MAGA nonsense.

You might check the stats on the number of people worldwide killed by the virus, which, by the way, is still a problem in some places. Multiple cyclists in the Tour of Italy have contracted Covid in the last few days, for example. China was in total lockdown for months after the U.S got back to normal.

"Health-care workers mocked or fired for standing up to the BS narrative"? The only BS narrative is yours. Why don't we poll U.S. health-care workers and ask them if Covid was a serious health threat or not? A totally stupid comment. They were putting their lives on the line, taking care of Covid patients, ace. The only people who were harassed and mocked were teachers and principals, by a bunch of redneck MAGA. Victims of the vaccine? Check the stats on how many people have been vaxxed.

The world doesn't care if you didn't want to wear a mask for 10 minutes while you were in public places, Ace. The government's job is to work to protect its citizens from major health threats, whether you like it or not.

You must be proud of how Trump handled everything. He did get you a vaccine to take in record time and I have no doubt you appreciate Trump letting Fauci run the show. So the logical conclusion here is you think Trump did a great job. I knew you’d warm up to him!
