Still more coverage of the catastrophic failure by public health and infection control officials who have never accepted their responsibility. Keep this story in the public eye - there's so much more information on this that needs coverage. What's in the news now is just the tip of the iceberg.

You keep referring to religion instead of nation. You have no desire to learn. Blocked.

Being Jewish is more than a religion. It is a people from the area known as Judea.

It is gratifying that people I blocked on social media in the early 2020s are still worthy of blocking. I love your and Wendy Orent's podcast.

I just finished an ARC of "An Expert Witness" that had this effect on me. Nonfiction. Sometimes when I finish a book, I feel that I am losing a friend.

I am shocked that he didn't ask for double-blind trials [SARCASM]. I think that could generate as interesting a paper as the one on parachute jumping someone else posted here.

New book, under the name A Brief History of Cities in 32 Inventions, is out in the US and Canada in October. Preorders are 25% off for Barnes & Noble's Rewards and Premium members with code PREORDER25. I'm apparently supposed to add "Three days only, so don’t wait! #BNPreorder," so that's nice.

getting an acute condition is not a preventative for chronic conditions. Unless the acute condition is really bad and one does not survive long enough to develop a chronic condition.

MP Dean Allison's upcoming anti-vax COVID "inquiry" includes BC family doctor Charles Hoffe. Reminder about Hoffe: - was an immediate virulent opponent of COVID vaccines - one the main sources of the "clot shot" smear - can't keep his numbers straight when talking about what he's seen/studied

Screenshot of video posted on FB by former Con MP Michelle Ferreri.

BC family doctor Charles Hoffe speaks at podium in a press conference. Video text above says: Dr. Charles Hoff speaks out on behalf of his vaccine injured patients.
www.allisoninquiry.com. CC at the bottom of the video says "I tried to alert my colleagues"

My tweet from Nov 6, 2021:

This Rebel News Interview with Charles Hoffe is only 2 days old and >10K views so far.

Highlights:
Intense windchime soundtrack
Hoffe misquoting his own D-dimer "research" (52% vs 62% with "microthrombi")
Downplaying risk of COVID to kids while fearmongering about vaccines

*screenshot of a Rebel News video called: "What parents need to know before jabbing their little kids" that shows Drea Humprey interviewing Charles Hoffe*
