Real Journalism from a Hispanic Comedian, Watch Dr. Fauci Squirm

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 6 Comments

Leo Hohmann posted this incredible video at Leohomann.com last evening and while I should have been working on a post this morning on another subject, instead I couldn’t take my eyes off this video (below).

See my post yesterday where I showed polling data that indicated that 30% of the US adult population is in the ‘NO’ column when asked if they would get THE Shot. Latino’s topped that number as 37% indicated they are a NO.

The 37% of both sexes in the Latino cohort is eclipsed by Republican men who say NO at 49%, and white, not college-educated men at 40%.

Fauci Calls Out Trump: Tell your people to get THE Shot!

See LeoHohmann.com:

Dr. Fauci actually gets asked real questions from a real journalist, and his answers may surprise you

Fauci must have been expecting softballs as he gets from virtually all of the US mainstream media.  This will make you laugh!  (Well, maybe not if you already got THE Shot.)

Among other things, did you know that even with the shot you could be an asymptomatic carrier of the China virus?

Fauci Calls Out Trump: Tell your people to get THE Shot!

What a dope.  Does he really believe people who are not getting THE Shot, the experimental so-called vaccine, are actually not getting it because of their political views?

I personally know people on both sides of the great political divide who have gotten the shot, and I expect you do too.

Here is Reuters about the much fawned-over Fauci being interviewed by Chuck Todd yesterday.  They are addicted to Trump!

Fauci hopes Trump will tell supporters to get COVID-19 vaccine

“How such a large proportion of a certain group of people would not want to get vaccinated merely because of political considerations … it makes absolutely no sense,” Fauci said.

So what numbers are they talking about?

See here at Gateway Pundit:

A poll released this week claimed to show nearly half of Trump supports do not plan on getting vaccinated against the COVID-19 China coronavirus, a statistic that sent shock waves through the COVID state bureaucracy and media.A NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll stated 47 percent of Trump supporters are choosing to not get a COVID vaccine.

So if you have doubts about the safety and efficacy of THE Shot, you are not alone.

I was surprised to see that 10% of Biden voters were in the NO column, so that would mean that 10% of his 80! million voters, or 8 million Dems, are vaccine skeptics.  Hmmm!

Robert F. Kennedy Jr’s campaign against the shot and against Fauci must be having an impact.

For further edification, see the screenshot (below) of the poll responsible for generating these numbers.

The whole page (page 23) wouldn’t fit, see it here.

Notice that 30% of all US adults are a NO!

(There are roughly 253 million adults in the US so about 76 million do not plan on getting The Shot.)

But, interestingly the graphic being used by Chuck at Meet the Press does not match the numbers on the actual reported poll data. 

The only number on their graphic above that is from the poll is the 58% of Dems (how many Dems voted for Trump?), but besides that, the problem they have in making the comparison between Trump and Biden voters is how can they know how many of the Independents voted for each man.  34% of Independents are a NO on the vaccine.

LOL! I don’t believe the pollsters asked each respondent who they voted for, that might have produced data to indicate that Biden didn’t get as many votes as the Dems claim.

If you are skilled at reading polls, tell me how they got from this data to the graphic above!

 

See my post on my views on the China virus shot, here last week.  It is your body, do your homework and choose wisely!

The Silencing of Covid ‘Vaccine’ Skeptics

 

Progressives Criticize Veep Pence for Getting Muslim-engineered Vaccine

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 2 Comments

The other day I posted a list of conservative news aggregator sites (see it updated here with more reader suggestions), but you should be reading the leftwing propaganda sites from time to time as well—very edifying.  Like this one….

Common Dreams snarks that Vice President Mike Pence, who they intimate is an Islamophobe, got the Chinese Virus vaccine and by doing so, they say, he is a hypocrite.

I’m posting this to show you what the hard Lefties are writing, but also to inform you that Turkish Muslims living in Germany are the creators of the Pfizer vaccine. 

What Common Dreams  wants its readers to know is this—you see all immigrants are good people who benefit society.

But, frankly for every deserving immigrant I can give you ten frauds, crooks and criminals as I have been saying and cataloging for over a decade.

From Common Dreams:

Pence, Who Backed Muslim Visa Ban, Gets Vaccine Invented by Muslim Immigrants

Pence also praised far right-wing evangelical leader John Hagee. Hagee has said that Muslim Americans are not real Americans.

 

Defeated Vice President Mike Pence got the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine on Friday.

Here is why he is a hypocrite.

Pence served for four years in the Trump administration, which initiated a visa ban against Muslims. Although he had in 2015 called any such ban “unconstitutional,” he folded when Trump insisted on it and proudly stood behind the Mad President when he signed the order.

Pence also praised far right-wing evangelical leader John Hagee. Hagee has said that Muslim Americans are not real Americans.

Pence has, further, improperly pressured USAID to route US foreign aid to the Middle East away from Muslims and to Christians instead.

Pence is a serial science denier. He says smoking cigarettes does not cause cancer. He has called the human-caused climate emergency “a myth.”

Ugur Sahin and Özlem Türeci

The Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine involves science and Muslim immigrants, so why is he getting it?

Pfizer partnered in developing the vaccine with a German firm, BioNTech, which was founded and is headed by the Turkish-German husband-wife team of Ugur Sahin and Özlem Türeci. BioNTech really developed the vaccine, though Pfizer is the one with the ability to mass-manufacture and distribute it.

The two are Turkish-German Muslims. [Gasp!]

Author Juan Cole goes on to report (breathlessly) that Sahin and Türeci are now both billionaires.  It is unclear why that matters.

As far as I am concerned the jury is still out on whether the vaccine is a success or not.

Meanwhile, search “new Covid strain identified in UK” and see that the world is in a panic as evidenced by every major news outlet spreading more fear.  Of course the big SCIENCE question is: will Pfizer’s vaccine work against the new strain (assuming it even works on the original strain)? 

 

 

 

Sweden on COVID: A Lesson

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 1 Comment

What unusual people the Swedes are.

Anders Tegnell. Love him or hate him.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anders_Tegnell

This morning as I am about to write about the horrible decisions Sweden has made on immigration (that they now admit) by ‘welcoming’ thousands upon thousands of migrants from Africa and the Middle East and now see those migrants forming ethnic enclaves, refusing to “integrate,” and where violence and crime is exploding, we see that the country may have made the right decision by not locking down the quasi-socialist country in an attempt to stop the Chinese virus.

The Financial Times has an excellent story posted last week. It is a valuable read in its entirety. Here are just a few snips(emphasis below is mine):

Anders Tegnell and the Swedish Covid experiment | Free to read

The controversial epidemiologist believes lockdown is ‘using a hammer to kill a fly’. Could he be proved right?

 

At the start of this year, Anders Tegnell was just a low-profile bureaucrat in a country of 10m people, heading a department that collects and analyses data on public health. Today, he has become one of the best known — and most controversial — figures of the global coronavirus crisis.

The 64-year-old Swedish doctor was meant to spend 2020 helping Somalia set up a public health agency as well as sending questionnaires out to Swedes to gauge different aspects of their wellbeing. Instead, his approach to Covid-19 — to keep schools, restaurants, fitness centres and borders open while refusing to follow China in imposing a formal lockdown — has seen him become an unlikely polarising figure for a polarised age.

For many Swedes, their state epidemiologist has embodied a rational approach as other countries have appeared to sacrifice science to emotion.

[….]

“At the outset, we talked very much about sustainability, and I think that’s something we managed to keep to. And also be a bit resistant to quick fixes, to realise that this is not going to be easy, it is not going to be a short-term kind of thing, it’s not going to be fixed by one kind of measure. We see a disease that we’re going to have to handle for a long time into the future and we need to build up systems for doing that,” he says, with his arms crossed tightly to his chest as they are for nearly the entire hour-long interview.

Our meeting comes as things appear to be going his way. As coronavirus cases rise in pretty much all other European countries, leading to fears of a second wave including in the UK, they have been sinking all summer in Sweden. On a per capita basis, they are now 90 per cent below their peak in late June and under Norway’s and Denmark’s for the first time in five months. Tegnell had told me the first time we spoke in the spring that it would be in the autumn when it became more apparent how successful each country had been.

This graph from the story tells the whole story….

There is much much more! Please read it all!

By the way, few wear masks in Sweden.  Tegnell says masks are not useful for the long haul.

Don’t miss Daniel Horowitz at The Blaze on that topic!

Lockdown Sceptics, a Website Worth Adding to Your Daily Reading List

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 2 Comments

Surely you have seen the news about the British professor Neil Ferguson who is the supposed brains behind the COVID-19 modeling that is now responsible for crashing (or near crashing) economies worldwide.

Stay sane. Protect the economy. Save livelihoods.

Thanks to reader Judy for sending me a story from this week about the coding model (now under scrutiny) used to justify the lockdown of the UK (and most of the world!) published at a new website entitled, Lockdown Sceptics, where there are posts almost daily critical of what the great minds have been telling us must be done to save us from certain death.

Author, Brit Toby Young, describes why he launched this website a month ago:

On Friday, April 3rd I wrote an article for the Telegraph about the tsunami of criticism I’d received after publishing a sceptical piece earlier that week about the Government’s lockdown strategy. That piece appeared in the Critic and shortly after it was published I started trending on Twitter, with thousands of people denouncing me, often using intemperate language. In the Telegraph article I expressed my disappointment about this reaction and said people shouldn’t feel shy about criticising the lockdown even if those views put them at odds with the majority. Our leaders are making decisions every day that will affect all our lives for years to come and it’s right that we should debate their options in the public square.

In the days that followed the publication of the Telegraph article I was contacted by dozens of people, most of whom shared my reservations and were frustrated that the Government’s decision to lock down the country wasn’t being adequately challenged. Some had tried to get their views published in newspapers, either as letters or articles, but without success. That’s why I’ve decided to set up this website. The idea is for it to serve as a hub for sceptical articles, papers and interviews that have appeared elsewhere, as well as a platform for lockdown sceptics to air their views in the form of comments.

Here is Lockdown Sceptics view of the titillating news you may have seen about the good professor.

Story and headline from The Sun. In the right hand column are titles of recent posts at Lockdown Sceptics.

 

Be sure to have a look at the post critical of Ferguson’s (flawed!) code responsible for our present miserable home detention.

Of course, I can’t vouch for every word posted by Young (someone is surely going to tell me he is this, or he is that), or anyone, but the point is that we are all entitled to hear all points of view on truly the momentous point (so far) in world history that any of us alive today will likely experience.
