Boosters do little to nothing to prevent infections. They prevent hospitalizations. And Omicron and BAs that ought to be named variants but aren’t largely escape the vaccines. The latest from IM Doc, and his reports for the last two months have been like this save everyone in his hospital being sick:

We now have an entire urgent care staff – including 2 MDs – who are all COVID positive. I am not just swamped – I am torpedoed.

Cases in my practice last week were up again – 88 in total. Not a single unvaxxed patient, 48 double vaxxed, 22 with one booster, and 18 with 2 booster. No vaxxed, No J&J, and no partial vaxxed.

Thankfully, no admissions. Just like last year, long phase of very mild illness.

One theory I have heard and made me think – is maybe all the unvaxxed vulnerable have died and all the unvaxxed we have left are young and healthy. I do not think so – still seeing lots of unvaxxed with risk factors in the office every day.

I have now gone two months without seeing a single unvaxxed patient. In an attempt to see if somehow this was just me, I contacted family practice docs in each of our surrounding counties with much lower VAX rates – on the order of 30-40%. Both had the same story – the absolute number of cases was WAY higher than this time last year……but in one county he had seen only 1 unvaxxed patient since MAR 1, the other county doc had seen only 7.

Something is very very wrong. Again, cases are way higher than last year and virtually all are among the VAXXED. I learned this week that in the official reporting, all of the double vaxxed only patients are being sent in as UNVAXXED – so it appears our unvaxxed rate is about 50%. But as I have explained above, that is completely misleading. The truly UNVAXXED are not the problem here. Furthermore, the numbers being reported are doing good to being 1/6 of the total. Almost all are on home or rapid tests. But unfortunately, as of this weekend, on the Drudge Report running 7 day counter – we are now seeing higher official numbers than last year. You just have to multiply by 6 on this years’s number to get close to accurate – so we are in a whole new world.

Now, I have attached an article from the paper over this weekend [contains anecdotes of many getting Covid and isolating]. Please note – this is in stark contrast to last year. I tracked down the first article of the year last year of an “unexpected surge” – which was published the week after JULY 4 – so we are two months ahead. The cases were MUCH lower last year – and we were still in the “vaccines have solved everything” mode.

I thought you would find this video of interest – after reading the attached article…..

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfdzYo3QUVI

All I can say is that did not age well – and would be considered misinformation today. These people are never going to be able to take back this stain on the reputation of public health. “Vaccination is like a superpower”…..and the nurse explaining that she was doing the VAX to get to visit her mom.

Again, in the attached article – one year later, the NH [nursing home] is in lockdown – and has been since March. Multiple patients from there with COVID in and out of the ER and hospital. All quadruple vaxxed.

Now, the scary part. The doctor’s meeting this last week was on FRI – everyone is noticing this too. Almost universally, the positive patients are vaxxed/boosted. And at my medical conference, this same pattern is being noted everywhere. The medical conference speaker had a long talk about Original Antigenic Sin and how this may be playing a role. There was also an open discussion about withholding the 4th shot until June – because JUL and AUG historically have been the bad months – and the shots are doing well to last a month. Also – a big discussion ensued as to whether the truly unvaxxed were safer in their current status. Still no resolution there – lots of arguments back and forth.

This I can tell you. We already have entire countries, Denmark, Sweden and Norway, abandoning their VAX programs – clearly largely because of what we are seeing. But there is something all of a sudden missing from press articles – that has been there for.a year – look at this attached one from small town America – not a word about getting vaccinated or boosted – not a peep. Not a peep about the advantage of vaccination, etc. I think the lack of mention is the first step.

Just look at these three random large articles. For a year now – every article would be stuffed with either entreaties to be vaccinated or jeremiads against the losers who were not. All of a sudden the past few weeks – NOTHING OF THE SORT.

I may be cynical from years of Big Pharma PsyOps. But something is up. I think there is growing realization of a big problem.

I have been reading about this for the last 2 weeks and it isn’t being reported in the mainstream media.

Almost universally, the positive patients are vaxxed/boosted. And at my medical conference, this same pattern is being noted everywhere. The medical conference speaker had a long talk about Original Antigenic Sin.

SF Gate had a recent article on elderly double jabbed people getting infected, ending up in hospital and dying. "But I got jabbed?!" People are not pleased that they have been misled about the protection that the jabs give them. But then they are told that it’s because they haven’t been boosted yet.

Something is very very wrong. Again, cases are way higher than last year and virtually all are among the VAXXED. I learned this week that in the official reporting, all of the double vaxxed only patients are being sent in as UNVAXXED – so it appears our unvaxxed rate is about 50%. But as I have explained above, that is completely misleading.

I’ve also been reading stories of the vax injured and it’s just heartbreaking that they are told that they just have anxiety and other mental issues when it’s obvious that their problems are medical. Most are told that no it has nothing to do with the jabs. And over 90% of them are frustrated and worse because they are being ignored by the government health agencies. They report their cases and get no follow up from the CDC. And they are left to pay for their treatment out of their pockets. If the jabs were mandated then someone needs to be responsible for the injuries. Many of them are unable to work anymore. Huge financial strains on their budgets when everything else is turning to sh*t for them.

Antigenic sin was predictable and even Pfizer and Fauci talked about it happening, but went ahead with the schedule anyway. Heh…speaking of Fauci the hypocrite he said that he wasn’t going to the press shindig because he didn’t feel it was safe. But he did go to the pre party where the only people wearing masks were the help. Same with all the recent upper class shindigs .

@snoopydawg won't tell us what's going down. the same as the MIC/Lobbyist complex won't tell us Ukraine is all about giving money to them w/kickbacks to the Hunter, grifters gotta grift don't they.

What's also very worrying is Gates coming out of hiding again to tell us Epstein is dead Covid is coming back. I really wish Karma would start showing up in spades!

Healdsburg City Council member Skylaer Palacios resigns, citing ‘hostile treatment’ and ‘housing instability’

In a prepared statement, she said her primary reason for giving up her seat was “housing instability” and her struggle to afford living in Healdsburg.

Palacios also cited concerns about her safety and mental health, saying she has “been on the receiving end of a plethora of hostile treatment” during her time on the council.

Palacios said she has been harassed online, her mail has been opened and her car tampered with.

Palacios’ time in office became shrouded by controversy when she emerged as a lightning rod in the debate over COVID-19 mandates last year.

She announced during a council meeting in November that she had not been vaccinated against the disease.

I'm kinda surprised they didn't tie her to a stake, and... oh never mind.

Retired Healdsburg Police Chief Kevin Burke, credited with overhauling police outreach to community, dies at 55

He was credited with overhauling the department’s community engagement efforts amid the city’s reckoning with institutional racism and bias spurred by Black Lives Matter protests.

“He was just an incredible, kind-hearted person. He loved, loved that department. He loved being our police chief,” Mayor Ozzy Jimenez said. “And he was just a different breed of officer. He was just so progressive in his thinking and inclusive in his language.”

He also managed the city’s response and evacuation during the 2019 Kincade fire, which threatened Healdsburg’s eastern flank and forced 190,000 county residents to flee.

Burke’s commitment to the community shone through during such crises, said Glaydon de Freitas, chief executive officer of Corazón Healdsburg, a local immigrant advocacy organization.

“He was always there for the community, responding and trying to do his best, putting the community first, being side-by-side with the community,” de Freitas said. “A lot of our community members are mourning that loss, which would put me in the same position.”

Burke was a founding member of Protect and Defend, an organization dedicated to LGBTQ inclusion and representation in law enforcement. He also volunteered with the San Francisco AIDS Foundation, helping LGBTQ clients navigate the HIV testing process.

“As a member of the LGBTQ community, it’s incredibly sad,” Jimenez added, pausing as he became emotional. “Mental health — it’s important.”

are seeing in your practice into some solid reporting evidence because it does not appear to be evident in other areas of the country. Are you saying that you think the virus is now attacking only the vaccinated and boosted people? If so, documentation is extremely important.

Here is what I found so far...

Washington and Minnesota's graphs looks pretty much the same as Virginia's

It's the same for NY TX and PA. The Washington Post has an article titled, "Covid Deaths No Longer Overwhelmingly Among the Unvaccinated as Toll on Elderly Grows" I could not open it because I don't have and account, but the subtitle says "Experts say numbers show importance of boosters and the risks the most vulnerable still face."

Covid Deaths No Longer Overwhelmingly Among the Unvaccinated as Toll on Elderly Grows

Covid deaths no longer overwhelmingly among unvaccinated as toll on elderly grows
Unvaccinated people accounted for the overwhelming majority of deaths in the United States throughout much of the coronavirus pandemic. But that has changed in recent months, according to a Washington Post analysis of state and federal data.

The pandemic’s toll is no longer falling almost exclusively on those who chose not to get shots, with vaccine protection waning over time and the elderly and immunocompromised — who are at greatest risk of succumbing to covid-19, even if vaccinated — having a harder time dodging increasingly contagious strains.

The vaccinated made up 42 percent of fatalities in January and February during the highly contagious omicron variant’s surge, compared with 23 percent of the dead in September, the peak of the delta wave, according to nationwide data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention analyzed by The Post. The data is based on the date of infection and limited to a sampling of cases in which vaccination status was known.

A simple google search gives you plenty of links. And the doctor doesn’t need to show you proof since he’s reporting on what he’s seeing in his practice.

This was predicted to happen and it’s what we have been saying here. Look up original antigenic sin and see for yourself. It’s what happens when vaccines are not sterilizing and are leaky. Maybe if you had read our comments and our posted links instead of trying to debunk them this wouldn’t be so surprising to you.

This response shows that you are not interested in a discussion on this. Or learning more about why people who have been tripled jabbed are the ones getting sick and dying. You don’t address what I wrote and just want to say that I’m wrong and score some kind of points in your head. Sorry, but it’s you who is wrong here as usual. Your mind is made up and no facts will get you to see how you are misinformed. Go ahead and rely on ever increasing jabs, but don’t say that you weren’t informed about what can happen.

But seriously answering comments days later in dead threads has gotten old.

Kinda hard to respond to comments before they are written. I would have responded sooner if you hadn’t waited 3 days to reply. But once again no discussion from you about what I wrote showing that you aren’t interested in discussing anything.

In case you have forgotten what we’re talking about here:

Pandemic of the Vaccinated

In the last reported week (14, 2022), triple-vaccinated (green below) are more infected on a pro-rata basis than double-vaccinated (blue), who in turn are more infected than unvaccinated (orange), across all age groups.

I’d think this would be interesting to you since you say that the jabs are safe and effective. This is from Denmark, but most highly jabbed countries are experiencing the same results. They are not effective nor are they safe. Care to comment on this?

You are like dealing with Christian dominionists... they are the only ones who are right and everyone else who doesn't agree with them is wrong.

@Fishtroller 02 is just like Christian Dominionists, Fish.
Probably the only thing I agree with you lately is the influence of religion in social customs and political policy.
From that starting point, I disagree with you about Russia Bad, and Vax Good. You can treat me like a CD, but you and I both know I am not.
So, what am I, and others just like me?

From your first link:

The second part of the dashboard shows COVID-19 vaccine breakthrough cases. It shows the number of COVID-19 vaccine breakthrough infections, hospitalizations, and deaths in Virginia among people who were fully vaccinated. [my bold]

If “fully vaccinated” only includes double vaxed and boosted, then the “non fully vaxed” group includes unvaccinated, partially vaccinated (one dose of two doses), vaccinated one dose (J&J) and vaccinated two doses (Pfizer or Moderna).

Those publishing data without differentiating the multiple modalities of the public’s vaccine status risk overstating the general efficacy and longevity of mRNA COVID-19 gene therapies while ignoring the value of naturally acquired immunity.
