Is the Covid Narrative Falling Apart?
Almost two weeks ago, CNN released a report suggesting that despite the vaccines and boosters, Omicron will “find just about everybody.” This comes just a short time after the federal and state governments and the corporate media tried to constantly beat into our heads that this was a “pandemic of the unvaccinated,” and yet, the propaganda has shifted into a more realistic narrative and view that the COVID-19 vaccines do not halt the spread of the virus, including the boosters (an Israeli study of the Pfizer vaccine in a country that is currently on its fourth dose and still experiencing similar spikes to the rest of the world and a separate report out of Scotland suggesting that those with two doses of the vaccine were hospitalized at a higher rate than the unvaccinated have been telling). The three constituent governments on the island of Great Britain have declared an end to mask mandates and vaccine passports, as they get ready to live with this now endemic virus. The new Czech government has abandoned the previous mandatory vaccination policies, and Spain is considering allowing individuals to go back to normal. Is the Covid narrative falling apart for the benefit of society?
In the United States, President Biden’s executive edict on forcing businesses with over 100 employees to require everyone to receive the vaccine or have weekly testing was terminated (at least for now) by the Supreme Court, however, the mandate requiring all medical facilities that receive Medicaid or Medicare to require their staff to be vaccinated was upheld. Despite the poor ruling on the latter, the decision on the former, in effect, ruled that the bureaucracy, outside of the legislature, cannot regulate all dangers that people face in everyday life simply because they must work and be at a place of employment (not to mention that the vaccine is permanent and cannot be turned off at home, and damage, regardless of how rare, cannot be undone). The Supreme Court has lost touch with the Constitution, but at least the Biden administration was not allowed to steal even more of our rights (the right to free association and to freely contract with anyone and in a manner of our pleasing).
The CDC has released some interesting narrative switches in recent weeks, as Director Rochelle Walensky admitted that 75% of those that died from the virus had four or more comorbidities (this was, of course, watered down to suggest that she was only saying that 75% of vaccinated individuals that died had at least four comorbidities, but even if that was the case, it is still pretty telling of the nature of the virus and its lack of lethality among most individuals in society). The agency also released a study showing that natural immunity was six times stronger than vaccination, and yet, all of this time, this type of thinking was considered misinformation spewed only by unscientific hicks. It is comforting to see that the official narrative is now catching up with “right-wing conspiracy theorists”.
Even New York Governor Kathy Hochul is starting to turn around, as she recently issued an order requiring hospitals to separate individuals that were hospitalized because of Covid and those that were in the hospital for something else but also happened to have the virus (where was this idea during the height of the pandemic when fear and an agenda were being pushed?). The governor lost some luck after a New York State Supreme Court (not the highest court in the state) judge in Nassau County struck down her mask mandates for schools and public places because the legislature did not pass a law and she no longer has emergency powers. It has also been admitted that cloth masks are unsuccessful mitigation measures (as worn in a manner that most people wear them) and are far inferior to N95 and KN95 masks, but many ignored the news because mask mandates remain on the unwritten books.
Another positive that has resulted from the changing narrative is that trust in Dr. Anthony Fauci has decreased from about 60% in April 2020 to about 44% in January 2022. The self-proclaimed representative of The Science has taken some hits as of late, especially from Senator Rand Paul. In the most recent of several exchanges, Paul attempted to get an answer from the “good doctor” about the email from former NIH Director Francis Collins and their conversation about creating a “quick and devastating published takedown” of three epidemiologists (Jay Bhattacharya of Stanford University, Sunetra Gupta of Oxford University, and Martin Kulldorph of Harvard University) because they disagreed with the state-sponsored gospel that lockdowns were the answer to our prayers. The fact that bureaucratic scientists with that much power and the ability to make or break those seeking funding for studies were conspiring to bring down high-level scientists that refused to toe the line is telling of the authoritarian experience that Americans were forced to face, and although Dr. Fauci kept playing the victim of personal attacks instead of answering Senator Paul’s questions substantively, it is become increasingly clear that America’s top scientist is on the defensive and losing credibility.
Dr. Science also seemingly conspired with Collins to ignore, and perhaps cover up, the idea that the virus originated in the laboratory in Wuhan and may have been engineered, even though it was a plausible theory. Aside from Facebook and the corporate media initially censoring any mention of the lab leak theory, it does appear from the FOIA email dump that Fauci and Collins did originally believe that the virus likely came from the lab, but that they changed their views on this and attempted to make it look like a conspiracy theory after sources showing credibility were starting to be taken seriously. Since Fauci and Collins may have directed funding to the lab through EcoHealth Alliance, it would make sense that they would want to silence this theory and attempt to be relieved of their responsibility in creating the pandemic (DARPA refused to take on the project of altering these bat coronaviruses because it was too risky, but the NIH sure did not care about the potential consequences). SARS-COV-2 is a virus that was primed from the beginning to be receptive to human cells (and the proteolytic cleavage site that interacts with human furin was the subject of the 2018 proposal for DARPA and later for the Wuhan lab, perhaps at the behest of the same EcoHealth Alliance that received funding for gain-of-function research on bat coronaviruses from the NIH), which may suggest that it was indeed engineered and accidentally or intentionally released.
The constant fearmongering in the media and by government officials have caused some to go mad, and even support draconian measures strictly for the unvaccinated, as a Rasmussen poll showed that 59% of Democrats supported forcing the unvaccinated to remain in their homes at all times, 48% of Democrats supported fines or imprisonment for the unvaccinated, 45% of Democrats supported relocating the unvaccinated to designated facilities, and 29% of Democrats supported the forced-removal of children from parents that refused to get vaccinated. Although some Republicans and Independents supported these policies as well, albeit to a much smaller proportion, this is terrifying. Some of our fellow Americans would prefer to make the lives of those who make a choice over their bodies miserable, or even send them to concentration camps, for a vaccine that clearly does not prevent communal spread. This is exactly how Hitler and other leaders throughout history have commanded and conditioned compliance from the vast majority of the population: scapegoat and convince them that committing horrendous acts were in the best interest of the collective.
Will those that held tight to the Covid narrative and were addicted to living under the spell of the government and the media for so long and became conditioned to the sense of duty and patriotism that gave meaning to their lives be able to handle the end of the crisis? Will they have a sense of hopelessness after this is all over? What kind of mental illness and harm has the fear and response from the virus caused? After all, a mother in Texas was charged for locking her Covid-positive son in the trunk because she was afraid to contract the virus, and another woman isolated herself in an airplane bathroom for hours when her rapid test came back positive mid-flight.
Aside from the obvious financial difficulties, lack of cancer screenings, drug overdoses, deterioration of our children’s learning and socialization skills, the psychotic donning of face masks in cars while driving alone or walking in remote areas with nobody in sight for miles, and the destruction of people’s lives and businesses; we will have to learn how to love and help each other as we rebuild our lives. The most diehard advocates of the Covid religion and the ones that fell for the narrative will have the most difficult time with this, and so these are the people that we need to reach, as it has become abundantly clear that most of the measures that they supported were put in place for nothing. Out of pride and to reconcile with their embarrassment for policy failures, will some of the Covid authoritarians within politics double down and take a more aggressive approach to “piss off” the unvaccinated, as French President Emmanuel Macron put it? Either way, we may soon see the downfall of the Covid narrative.
