The Dose - 10-8-21
An open thread for gentle discussions of all things Covid.
Hey! Good Morning!
All Our Problems Are Built On Us-Vs-Them Propaganda
Liberal pundit Keith Olbermann shared a video the other day where he ranted about people who don’t want to take the Covid vaccine with such emotional vitriol that spittle flew from his mouth and drool poured down his chin. I found it hard to watch, partly because it’s always uncomfortable to see someone come apart like that and partly because it made me realize that I’ve probably spent the last few years making fun of a media personality who has some actual diagnosable psychological disorders.
Rather than lay out what he thinks are the best arguments for taking the vaccine as most of his peers have been doing, Olbermann instead spouts vituperations about what “cowards” and “snowflakes” unvaccinated people are.
“They’re afraid!” Olbermann screams over and over again, as though being afraid of something makes you some sort of monster. As though we’re not all afraid of something, whether it be the vaccine or the virus or being alone or the fact that thawing arctic permafrost is pouring methane into the atmosphere. This commonality should draw us closer together, but here it’s being used for partisan us-vs-them theatrics which drive us further apart.
Us-vs-them frameworks are used constantly to manipulate people into espousing various narratives, and narrative manipulation is the underlying source of all of humanity’s problems.
Today’s world is dominated by a unipolar power structure loosely centralized around the United States government. It is comprised of many nations which are ostensibly independent, but, since they move in near-complete alignment with each other on all international issues of major importance, this power structure can effectively be called an empire. This empire sets the economic, environmental and military policies which are causing all the ecocide, war and nuclear brinkmanship we see driving humanity toward its destruction today.
The empire’s greatest weapon is not its military but its propaganda machine. There’s simply never been anything like the global narrative control provided by the western news media, Silicon Valley, and Hollywood. The military fights wars; the propaganda machine wins them long before they even start.
When you use the military to eliminate opposition, everyone knows it happened. When you use propaganda to eliminate opposition, people aren’t even aware you did it. They think it was their own idea to suddenly become super concerned about Saddam or Putin or Maduro or whomever or to go along with this or that power-serving agenda. Beyond the hard, concrete realities of war and militarism there’s a whole other war being fought on a far greater scale and of far greater consequence, and most people don’t even know it’s happening: the mass-scale psychological manipulation of the entire human species.
This is why human behavior looks so irrational when taken together. Why are we fighting all these wars, engaging in nuclear brinkmanship and destroying the biosphere when we know intellectually these are bad things? It’s not because humans are inherently destructive, it’s because a few destructive humans manipulate the rest of us into doing destructive things using propaganda.
A lucid and well-informed examination of the world’s problems will keep bringing you back to this one fundamental issue: that Earth’s inhabitants are being psychologically manipulated at mass scale into organizing themselves in ways that serve the powerful instead of the people.
Most propaganda is based on us-vs-them framing; support the oligarch-controlled Democratic Party because Republicans are bad, support the oligarch-controlled Republican Party because Democrats are bad, those evil Muslims/Russians/Chinese want to hurt us, that evil dictator over there is doing things which we good freedom-loving people cannot allow, etc. A tremendous amount of energy goes into feeding into these us-and-them frameworks to keep the propaganda engine running efficiently.
Manipulative narcissists, cult leaders and propagandists all do this, and they do it because it is effective. A video titled “The science behind ‘us vs. them’” by Big Think does a good job of breaking down how deeply hardwired the human brain is to think in terms of an “in” group who we like and an “out” group who we don’t like, citing numerous experiments which have shown this to be true around the world.
“What becomes clear when you look closely is it is virtually inevitable that we divide the world into ‘us’es and ‘them’s and don’t like ‘them’s very much and don’t treat them well,” explains neuroendocrinology researcher Robert Sapolsky. “But we are incredibly easily manipulated as to who counts as an ‘us’ and who counts as a ‘them’.”
“We could be manipulated by all sorts of ideologues out there as to deciding that people who seem just like us really aren’t, they’re really so different that they count as a them,” Sapolsky adds.
“We turn the world into ‘us’es and ‘them’s, and we don’t like the ‘them’s very much and are often really awful to them, and the ‘us’es we exaggerate how wonderful and how generous and how affiliative and how just like siblings they are to us,” says Sapolsky.
Can you see how easy it would be for someone who understands this aspect of our psychology to exploit it to seed propaganda in our minds? Set up a “them” side who we distrust and an ‘us’ side who we trust, and any information which comes from the “us” side will slide in unchecked by critical thinking.
If you can split the population into two sides and control the “us” narratives of both of them, you can easily insert propaganda narratives into most of the population. If Rachel Maddow is in your “us” team you’ll desire increased cold war aggressions against Russia, if Tucker Carlson is on your “us” team you’ll want more escalations against China, both of which happen to advance the interests of the aforementioned empire. As does the status quo both sides promote in their own ways.
This happens constantly, throughout the empire all around the world. Fake “us”es and “them”s are set up for us by powerful manipulators, and our receptiveness to the “us” side allows the manipulators who control it to continually feed narratives into our minds about what’s going on in the world.
Power is controlling what happens. Real power is controlling what people think about what happens.
I don’t know exactly what’s going on with this virus and the vaccines; sometimes it seems like I’m the only person on the internet who doesn’t. But what I do know is that the intensely heated polarization over this issue on both sides feeds into the us-vs-them dynamic where power-serving propaganda about any subject can easily flourish. This benefits someone, and it ain’t you.
Humanity’s problems are made possible by mass-scale manipulation, and mass-scale manipulation is made possible by us-vs-them beliefs. If people weren’t being aggressively manipulated into consenting to the status quo they would have used the power of their numbers to end the status quo a long time ago. Divide-and-conquer isn’t just useful because it prevents people from unifying against their oppressors, it also pours rocket fuel in the oppressors’ propaganda machine.
‘Tragic and completely avoidable’: US hits 700,000 Covid-19 deaths
The Covid-19 death toll in the US has now surpassed 700,000, despite the Covid-19 vaccines’ wide availability, in what one expert called a “tragic and completely avoidable milestone”.
Data from Johns Hopkins University shows that the US went just past 700,000 deaths on Friday; the US had previously reached 600,000 deaths in June. The country has had a total of 43.6m confirmed cases of Covid-19 since the start of the pandemic, according to Johns Hopkins.
Over the last few months, the overwhelming majority of people who died from Covid were unvaccinated. A study from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) published last month found that after the Delta variant became the most common variant in the US over the summer, unvaccinated Americans were 10 times more likely to be hospitalised and die because of the virus compared with vaccinated Americans. ...
With a slight majority of the population fully vaccinated, the Covid death rate has significantly decreased compared with the death rate during previous surges of the virus, when the vaccine was unavailable. Following the surge in cases seen last winter, 100,000 people died in a 34-day period between January and February. Comparatively, it took over three months for the US to see another 100,000 deaths this summer.

Pfizer Covid jab ‘90% effective against hospitalisation for at least 6 months’
Two doses of the Pfizer/BioNTech Covid vaccine are “highly effective” at preventing hospitalisations for at least six months, a large-scale study shows, but protection against infection nearly halves over the same period.
Effectiveness against all Covid infections fell from 88% within a month of having two doses to 47% after six months, according to the research. However, effectiveness against hospitalisations remained high at 90% overall – and crucially across all variants, including delta.
The findings, published in the Lancet, are consistent with preliminary reports from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Israel’s ministry of health that suggested protection against the virus fades within six months.

‘Exhausted and underpaid’: teachers across the US are leaving their jobs in record numbers
Teachers around the United States are quitting or retiring early as schools have reopened for the new academic year and Covid-19 cases among children have surged in recent weeks in the face of some states banning mask mandates. There have been more than 200,000 reported weekly cases among children in the past five consecutive weeks, with most cases spreading in areas with no school mask mandates in place and low vaccination rates, as vaccines for children under age 12 are still pending federal approval. ...
A shortage of teachers in the US was already a growing problem before the Covid-19 pandemic, particularly in high poverty schools. The shortage has worsened during the pandemic. Some schools have closed when too many teaching positions could not be filled, while others grapple with higher than normal teacher vacancies, leaving remaining teachers overworked. In Florida, teacher vacancies this year increased by more than 67% compared with August 2020, and a 38.7% increase from August 2019. ...
Nearly 10% of teachers in Providence, Rhode Island, either quit or retired early from the city’s school district before the school year began. Public schools in Michigan saw a 44% increase in midyear teacher retirements this past school year over the 2019-2020 school year. In Fort Worth, Texas, the school district had 314 vacant teacher jobs at the beginning of this school year, compared with 71 at the 2019-2020 school year, before the pandemic. ...
At least 378 active teachers have died from Covid-19 since the beginning of the pandemic, along with hundreds of other school workers. Several surveys have shown teachers are more likely to leave the profession because of worsening stress and burnout during the pandemic, coupled with pre-existing issues such as a lack of resources and low pay.

Brett Kavanaugh tests positive for Covid-19
Justice Brett Kavanaugh has tested positive for Covid-19, the supreme court announced on Friday, just three days before the court is set to begin a new term hearing oral arguments in key cases relating to religion, guns and abortion.
The court said Kavanaugh, 56, is showing no symptoms of the virus and has been fully vaccinated against Covid since January.

good morning folks...
hopefully the scheduler will post this while i am sleeping comfortably. i'll check in later in the day.
have a great day!
Thanks for doing this
a few destructive humans manipulate the rest of us
time to reset the thinking subroutine.
Perhaps this is only the 8th, but the future is always near.
Thanks for posting!
afternoon qms...
heh, as jim morrison used to sing:
A Daily Dose
Most of us are highly interested in every scrap of info and many of us including me, have found understanding our current staate to be an unrealized goal.
Thank you so much Joe for taking this on.

Caity is so on target as usual
I must admit I would have left the classroom in 2020 had I still been teaching. The demands on teachers to provide instruction on-line, in person, plus classroom COVID cleaning is simply unreasonable. All as the administrators (which are almost all past coaches in this part of the country) sit and sip coffee in the central office and issue more duties for teachers.
Hope you're all healthy and happy despite the now endemic virus. Thanks for the COVID OT joe.
The only new COVID news I've heard is COVID toes...
[video:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wQH40UydmWM]
Covid toe, caused by the immune response to the virus, not the virus itself

Study reveals why some people get Covid toe condition
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-58801462
“Until justice rolls down like water and righteousness like a mighty stream.”
Last night my husband and I were watching BBC news...
One the the stories was about a group of doctors (epidemiologist, virologists, etc.) who had gotten together on a voluntary basis to look closely at all the studies done on ivermectin, especially the ones that were used as a basis for justifying prescription of this drug for Covid 19. The report focused on a Dr. Kyle Sheldrick of the University of Wales.
The BBC story is here...https://www.bbc.com/news/health-58170809
Being somewhat of a BBC skeptic, I looked up this Dr. Sheldrick. I found a link through his twitter feed that talks about the group involved with the studies sleuthing...
https://cosmosmagazine.com/health/covid/data-detectives-ivermectin-studi...
From the article..."That’s where the data detectives come in. The fabulous five – including three irreverent Aussies – do not hail from a single institution and have no formal collaboration. Three don’t even have a PhD yet. What unites them is their hobby of sleuthing startling papers. That’s how they all met on Twitter.
“We’re five inherently suspicious people,” explains Kyle Sheldrick – a medical doctor currently doing a PhD on back pain at the University of New South Wales, Australia, and the senior author of the paper.
The two that do have PhDs – Nick Brown, a Brit now based at Linnaeus University in Sweden; and Australian James Heathers, now chief scientific officer at a biotech company called Cipher Skin in Colorado – already enjoyed a reputation as “data thugs” for exposing fraud in psychology papers. One of their sleuthing successes resulted in the retraction of 15 papers.
The other three authors were galvanised by the pandemic: Jack Lawrence, a medical student at the University of London who also moonlights as a “journalist and disinformation researcher”; Gideon Meyerowitz-Katz, an experienced epidemiologist with a master’s degree in Public Health who is now carrying out a PhD in the use of electronic devices in diabetes at the University of Wollongong in Australia; and Sheldrick."
Following this information, I found a writer on Medium who is an epidemiologist. He took all this work by the group and summarized it in a 3 part series on the ivermectin studies. Here is his work...
https://gidmk.medium.com/is-ivermectin-for-covid-19-based-on-fraudulent-...
These scientists spent months of their own time pouring over clinical studies and data on ivermectin. It's like a detective story.
As the saying goes, there are always two side of the story, and certainly I don't post this to "change minds". I post it because it is highly educational and demonstrates the complicated world of science research and how applying skepticism to anything we read is important.

Are those studies a rehash
of the withdrawn Elgazzar study?
Could be, but
https://blogs.bmj.com/bmj/2021/07/05/time-to-assume-that-health-research...
if carefully or micro-scrutinized, beyond what the peer reviewers saw, possibly as many as 20% of published medical research articles may be flawed to various degrees, according to a July BMJ article.So with that, also to consider is whether any other drugs with a similar strong clinical findings/trials backing have been as closely picked over to find fault as with IVM?
Interesting too that some seem so intent on denigrating a safe and cheap drug that even if it were somehow shown, despite the good evidence, to be short in Covid effectiveness, the end result would be no worse than taking a sugar pill, especially with the unsafe and ineffective vaccines as the alternative. Why are so many getting bent out of shape or spending hours of their day trying to debunk it?
As for state media BBC, it's the leader of the recent "Trusted News Initiative" group, aka The Ministry of Truth, which claims to have been started to combat election misinformation, but which got its start exactly around the time the Covid vaccines were being rolled out, mid-Dec 2020. Other official members, not including friends and other allies of a similar inclination to censor and slant on Covid: AP, AFP; BBC, CBC/Radio-Canada, European Broadcasting Union (EBU),Facebook, Financial Times, First Draft, Google/YouTube, The Hindu, Microsoft , Reuters, Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism, Twitter, The Washington Post.
As to your questions on why the ivermectin studies
were scrutinized... https://www.ems1.com/coronavirus-covid-19/articles/understanding-ivermec...
The rise in numbers of people self medicating without a doctor involved has gone way up... enough that EMT's are being schooled on how to deal with it.
I know that what I linked has a lot to read in it, but it also answers your questions.
As to your list of sites that you feel are slanted.... this is exactly why I went beyond the BBC report to find the root of the information.
"Without the right to offend, freedom of speech does not exist." Taslima Nasrin
I hadn't realized there were
so many people using ivermectin in the US.
Could this be the cause of the recent downturn in deaths?
I thought that was Capitalism ...
Mornin' joe. You know I like Caitlin, she's got some good insights, but she tends to oversimplify sometimes, looking for a single, grand explanation.
I've known that Olbermann was a loon since 2016, when he did his Russiagate rant.
See you tonight.
We wanted decent healthcare, a living wage and free college.
The Democrats gave us Biden and war instead.
evening azazello...
heh, what a lot of people are looking for is a simple, grand explanation. i guess you can't fault caity too much for trying her best to give them one, even if it isn't just exactly perfect.
have a great day!
A must read
A group of doctors not only ask some very important questions, but they supply the answers to why the Covid agenda is built on total BS. They pretty much pick apart what the governments are trying to do. Too much info to expert.
https://www.lifesitenews.com/opinion/doctors-demand-answers-from-bc-govt...
Pay attention to the part on the PCR test. Hopefully they will get some answers, but I doubt they will.

good article...
and valid questions. I bet they are ignored.

afternoon snoopy...
thanks for the article. they pose some excellent questions.
have a great day!
Hi Snoopy,
So, anyway, as an example of the disingenous part, the article said:
As this clarification says, they are retiring a "panel" that they produced. I presume this was part of a kit that they gave out that contained reagents that labs could use to certify their assays. There are other better reagents now available, so they are just stopping supplying it.
Hope that helps. All the best.
Re Olbermann,
he was unhinged in many videos a few yrs ago re Russiagate, taking the neoconlib position that We are at War!! It was actually a few yrs earlier when he constantly had on his Msnbc show a pro-Warren Report propagandist of the type Langley might produce, to denounce any conspiracy thinking in that case as well as conspiracy thinking generally, that I began to have serious doubts about him. He's just like all the rest, only he likes to pretend he's the reincarnation of Edward R. Murrow, and he shouts more.
This piece opens up a discussion about LWA (Left-Wing Authoritarianism) being present alongside the more prevalent RWA. With the wide sweeping and increasingly draconian vaccine mandates, and the strident anti-IVM messaging in the MSM and on some lefty blogs, there is solid evidence of LWA in the land. Some findings:

https://trialsitenews.com/is-molnupiravir-a-global-catastrophic-threat/
the side effects could be bad.
From Dr John's comparison with IVM (notes under clip)
But this will be rushed to market as the extremely safe inexpensive IVM is suppressed.

Getting a little
You saved $700 per course?
I got ripped off. I only saved $688.
Well well well
Can you say hypocrisy? I bet you can.
What type of treatments did Trump get way back when to save his life and then kept it quiet?
Which AIPAC/MIC/pharma/bank bought politician are you going to vote for? Don’t be surprised when nothing changes.
Kory insinuated...
Trump too got IVM.
“Until justice rolls down like water and righteousness like a mighty stream.”
Not at all surprising,
"The “jumpers” reminded us that one day we will all face only one choice and that is how we will die, not how we will live." Chris Hedges on 9/11
if i recall correctly...
trump was treated with a cocktail of drugs including monoclonal antibodies. after taking the cocktail, trump said that within hours he felt completely recovered.
i'm pretty sure that i read that joe rogan was also treated with monoclonal antibodies along with his ivermectin treatement and he reported a similar, rapid recovery.
i would guess that most congressworms were treated by the office of the attending physician and would have been given the same cocktail that trump was.
Kory needs to prove this, and quickly too. Many on his twitter
thread are demanding he prove his sources. Also, how were these 100-200 members treated? After they got Covid? Before they got it? Were they also vaxxed? Lots of questions to this big charge. If Kory can't come up with answers, it just lays there as innuendo and doesn't help his cause.

Snoop It's my understanding that the Congresspeople
This was on NPR when Pelosi's staff got COVID awhile back.
A society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they know they shall never sit. Allegedly Greek, but more possibly fairly modern quote.
Consider helping by donating using the button in the upper left hand corner. Thank you.
Then he is stuck with with an unverifiable story.
It's a huge claim involving huge numbers of members of Congress. We are supposed to just believe him about the story AND the source because he says so?
The only thing he is fully standing by at this point is rumor.
"Without the right to offend, freedom of speech does not exist." Taslima Nasrin
There are over 15,000 congressional staff in Washington.
100 to 200 congressional members including families and staff, is a relatively small number. I would estimate that there would be several times that number who don't talk about it. Fortunately for them, they DO NOT fall under the Fed's vaccination mandate.
This doesn't address the claim by Kory that his tweet
represents fact.
"Without the right to offend, freedom of speech does not exist." Taslima Nasrin
I'm responding to YOUR claim
"It's a huge claim involving huge numbers of members of Congress."
100-200 people including family and staff is a relatively SMALL claim and quite believable.
Well if you want to believe claims that have no evidence
or facts behind them, go ahead.
But if Kory turns out to be making this up, then his followers might want to reassess their loyalty.
"Without the right to offend, freedom of speech does not exist." Taslima Nasrin
I trust Dr. Kory over the vaccine pushers
in the Federal government and their corporate pharmaceutical donors who are foisting a barely tested product upon every citizen from 12 years and up. (Soon to be 5 years followed by 6 month old babies). For your information, the stage three trials were NEVER completed when they discontinued the placebo group in early spring.
I just came across the following
A bit dated but informative due to the source - The World Health Association
Care to guess what's in those "medicine kits"?
David H. Gorski, MD, PhD, a vocal anti-ivermectin doctor thinks that these results are "hilarious":
Here's the hilarious current case counts and fatality rates:
US - Pop 333 million - Cases 45,030,695 - Death Rate 2,190/million
India - Pop 1,353 million - Cases 33,933,932 - Death Rate 322/million
Maybe the true reason for this remarkable difference in case counts and death rates is India's excellent roti and biryani?
"We toe the company line"
Also, vaccination status is NOT automatically recorded on admission to hospital if vaccination done by a third party so hospitalization cases and deaths for COVID will be recorded as non-vaccinated.
And how many patients
Re VAERS, the feds not only mislead (the undercount is severe, maybe only 10% of cases being reported) but then don't even want to tell the public about that 10%. Seems like a system designed so the agencies can officially be on the record as duly noting AEs, which they are probably legally charged with doing, while on the other hand they'd prefer the public not know about them.
Still waiting for Anderson or Sanjay or Rachel or either Chris to do even a 4-minute segment on VAERS reports to acknowledge that, by golly, sometimes even these Great Vaccines aren't perfect.
No FDA-Approved COVID-19
Biden’s mandate was both giving cover for business to mandate employees get vaccinated and a bluff thinking that the mandates were in affect. Forcing people to choose between getting vaccinated and keeping their jobs is illegal under countless laws in the US? The 1906 smallpox mandate was made before the Supreme Court passed the body autonomy laws therefore nullifying it.
Which AIPAC/MIC/pharma/bank bought politician are you going to vote for? Don’t be surprised when nothing changes.
I should think
The legal status of the Pfizer vaccine is a particularly complex matter, and likely deliberately obfuscated by Pfizer and the govt authorities. If the critics are right, and there continue to be no/few FDA-approved Comirnaty vaccine doses available, then it's unlawful to use EUA vaccines for the mandate laws. Also an issue there, in this bait-switch game, of recipients being adequately and accurately informed of which vaccine they are taking, the fully approved one or a look alike.
On bodily autonomy, as I understand how these things work, a later Scotus ruling doesn't always overrule a prior ruling unless it is directly in the legal gunsights (made a clear part of the pleadings) and is then explicitly overturned or declared null by clear language in the more recent ruling. So in effect the 1905 Scotus ruling allowing that local MA vaccine mandate is technically still on the books until overtly overturned.
The 1965 Griswold case that first enunciated a constitutionally protected right to privacy and the 1973 Roe v Wade case on privacy/bodily autonomy didn't directly overturn Jacobson but both later cases could be said to be in conflict or dissonant with Jacobson. My 2 cents fwiw.
If you were vaccinated with the
Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine you are covered by the Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program (CICP). As an approved drug COMIRNATY falls under the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP).
There is a substantial difference for making a compensation claim between the two programs.
Comparison of Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program (CICP) to the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP)
Pfizer-BioNTech can now claim approval for COMIRNATY which falls under the VICP while actually doing vaccinations with their COVID-19 Vaccine which falls under CICP. Neat bait and switch. They can have their cake and eat it too. And the feds save a tremendous amount of money if the proverbial hits the fan.
Getting compensation under the CICP is difficult (you can't use a lawyer). To date only 29 cases have been granted for a total of $6 million.
How much does a paper label cost?
Because that is the difference between the two vaccines.
"there is not sufficient approved vaccine available for distribution to this population in its entirety at the time of reissuance of this EUA."
Hard to believe
It would be done at the bottling plant
with lot numbers etc. The stuff has limited shelf life and must be kept at -60C. They have to manufacture it on a continuous basis. Just change the labels and you get a new vaccine.
Notice the slight of hand. Make your own judgment. Keep in mind the only difference is the allowed compensation claim for each "label".
