Fanatical followers of the Covid regime: A Jim Jones-style cult? By Professor Roger Watson and Dr Niall McCrae AS scholars at leading British universities over recent decades, we have witnessed the replacement of critical thinking and debate by narrative: facts are discrimination and scientific method is imperialism; truth, instead, is derived from ‘progressive’ values.    This educational trend may be a major contributory factor to the ease in which society has been inculcated to the Covid ‘new normal’ of masking, testing, and repeated doses of vaccines for a disease of similar risk to severe influenza.     One doesn’t need much critical reasoning to observe the flawed logic of some vaccination enthusiasts, such as those who respond to experiencing any side-effects, however debilitating, by saying, ‘at least I know it’s working’. Or, after contracting the disease despite their promised inoculation (over 90 per cent effective, according to initial drug...

If it can't make new Billionaires it is simply NOT GOOD ! The Post-Partisan Emporium's  Purpose and Standards   This site does not have a particular political position. We welcome articles from various points of view, and civil debate when differences arise. Contributions of articles from posters are always welcome.

The Death of Science and the Rebirth of Superstition Todd Hayen PhD "Science denier!!” A snarky phrase I am sure most of you have heard many times. In the beginning of this Covid debacle, when there was clearly only “one science” approved and presented by the media, it took a bit of digging to find other scientific hypotheses. Now it is not so difficult to see clearly that there is a deeper, more robust, science that is contradicting the mainstream. But still we hear the mantra  “follow the science!”   “you are a moronic denier of science!”  and as Fauci so famously put it,  “if you are against me, you are against science!” So what, then,  is  science? The first thing I would say in defining science is to state what it isn’t…it isn’t typically consensual. I suppose there are some things we can call “settled science” but even much of that is often questioned, certainly over the years as new discoveries are made “old science” steps aside for “new science.” Wh...

By Kevin Roche   November 14, 2021 Still catching up and when this is published I will momentarily be there on research summaries.  Momentarily. Miracle of miracles, a Democratic Governor, in Colorado, says something completely rational and sensible about masks.  Governor Polis said he saw no reason to implement a mask mandate, because New Mexico has one and their case rates look like Colorado’s.  Way too much common sense.   (Colo. Story) A study on breakthrough infections in a county in Florida.  There were a relatively small number of breakthrough events, which occurred on average 100 days after full vaccination.  75% were Delta.  Some transmission by breakthrough infections were identified.  The viral load was about 38% lower in breakthrough cases.     (Medrxiv Paper) An enduring mystery is why some people don’t get infected after exposure.  The virus undoubtedly enters their upper respiratory tract but never ...

From Singapore to the Netherlands to Iceland to Vermont. And coming soon to the entire northern half of the United States. Alex Berenson Nov 12 This is not how it was supposed to go. Deaths hitting new highs in Singapore (85% of the population fully vaccinated - NOT adults, the entire population): A new lockdown in the Netherlands (70% fully vaccinated) And in Iceland (76% fully vaccinated): As Vermont - the most vaccinated American state (71% fully vaccinated) smashes highs for cases: Virus gonna virus. And it looks more and more like the harder we try to keep it from virusing, the worse the rebound. But don’t worry, the boosters will fix everything!
