I have 14 children, a wide range of interests and unpopular opinions.
From economics professor Justin Wolfers: This is stunning: Nearly half of the Q1 decline in GDP can be attributed to healthcare, which is presumably delaying of elective procedures. It’s a strange reality that in the midst of a pandemic, we have a healthcare-led recession. Wolfers has figured out that shutting down a significant part of […]

Still no sign of overrun hospitals anywhere in the US. Now we know why those medical ‘professionals’ who’ve not been fired are coordinating dance videos.

It’s just two physicians who tested more than 5,000 people for the Wuhan, explaining why you have the same chance of dying from The Wuhan as you do the Flu. YouTube banned the video after it had gotten more than 5 million views. There is a link to the video now hosted on my server […]

That’s a headline from 2005. Yeah, we’ve been through this before, where the experts make wild, apocalyptic prophecies to get attention and boost their funding. David Nabarro, one of the most senior public health experts at the World Health Organisation, said outbreaks of bird flu, which have killed at least 65 people in Asia, could […]

Patrick Szarnicki has taken the time to compile national mortality figures week by week for the last few years and noticed that even with the inflated Wuhan numbers being reported, we’re still below average (that’s a good thing), in terms of deaths per week compared to the average since 2014. Look: If you compare this […]

On the 14th NYC added 3,700 deaths to their count, regardless of whether the deaths were caused by the Wuhan and even without any testing. At the time of the ‘revision’, total deaths in NYC were under 10,000. The ‘revision’, amounting to nearly 40% of the total, may give us insight into the degree […]

I’ve seen first hand in my family and in my wife’s family how mental illness destroys marriages, upends livelihoods and infects children as if it were a generational contagion. It’s not something that responsible people would treat flippantly, and yet our rulers knew the panic they fomented over the Wuhan virus would generate an unprecedented […]
