I think I’m responsible for that correction.

Gateway Pundit published an article about the VAERS site being down.

I sent them a correction noting that… Well, let me just show you their correction. Because they copy&pasted the note I sent them, right down to the asterisks I used for emphasis.

*OpenVAERS.com* is currently down. It has been down for hours. OpenVAERS is a privately run site that data mines the official CDC VAERS site.

That’s one of the things I like about Gateway Pundit, despite their clear conservative bias: They actually read feedback, and they will make corrections. Quickly.

If you follow ChinCOVID vax news, you should be familiar with OpenVAERS.com. It isn’t the official VAERS site, but it datamines the official site, pulls out the COVID-19-specific data, and presents it in a clearly understandable manner. That is something that’s unnecessarily difficult to do with the official site. OpenVAERS has been providing a valuable service, and I hope they’re back up soon.

Parody Of Dims Is Hard

They seem determined to out-weird anything we can come up with. Yesterday, I wrote: He refused to answer questions regarding how being inadequately protected by obsolete Level I vests will encourage honest citizens to give up their remaining protection, aside from screeching, “Science!” over and over.

Just a few hours later in what passes for the real world in DC:

ChinCOVID Surge: Let’s Test A Hypothesis

Since we know ChinCOVID “case” counts include antigen positives, and COVID “vaccines” cause the body to produce antigens let’s try to see just where the recent “surge” in cases could have come from.

Hypothesis: The recent surge in cases was led by a surge in vaccinations by 10-28 days. Much of the case surge is actually increased vaccination.

Sadly, I can’t find the national data I’d need to test that, but Georgia is better than average at reporting useful ChinCOVID data.

Antigen cases peaked on 1/4/2021 (3,907), 4/12/2021 (669), and 7/22/2021 (prelim 885).

Daily vaccinations began 12/15/2020, peaked 3/1/2021 and 7/23/2021.

The first antigen case peak on 1/4/2021 came 20 days after vaccinations began.

The second antigen case peak on 4/12/2021 came 12 days after vaccinations began.

The third antigen case peak on 7/22/2021 is not associated with a prior vaccination peak.

There may or may not be a correlation.

However, PCR testing peaked on 7/23/2021 (probably in preparation for Georgia schools reopening in the very near future). Georgia does not report the number of daily antigen tests administered, but it seems likely that antigen testing was also peaking at that time. Therefore, the 7/22/2021 antigen case peak may be an artifact of peak testing.

The hypothesis may be further tested by noting the 7/23/2021 peak in vaccinations, and predicting another antigen case peak between 8/2 and 8/20/2021.

Added Note: I took another look at daily vaccinations and saw they continued to go up after 7/23, peaking on 7/30 (declining since). So let’s see if antigen cases peak between 8/9-8/27 (and on 8/6, that does look like it might be the trend). I wonder if people testing antigen positive are asked for their vaccination status, and if vaxxed, when.

ChinCOVID: “Antigen Cases”

Yesterday, I heard about the Class I recall of Innova Rapid Antigen Tests (RAT), reportedly for a high false positive rate. That prompted me to ask my local public health district just what RATs are being used in my district.

I got a reply today.

Hello Mr. Bussjaeger. All COVID-19 testing done by the Coastal Health District relies on PCR tests and not antigen tests.

Well, someone has reported 158 “antigen cases” in Camden County to DPH, in the past two weeks. I would have expected CHD to want to know who is testing with which RAT in its area. Especially with a RAT recall and recommendation to re-test individuals.

But this raises an interesting question. Basically, there two ways you can test “positive” for ChinCOVID. One is a PCR test that amplifies genetic material and checks for nucleotides allegedly specific to SARS-CoV-2. The other way is an antigen test that checks for antigens virus spike proteins.

Supposedly the PCR test was the gold standard because it was claimed to be specific to SARS-CoV-2. Of course, in the CDC notice that the PCR test EUA is being withdrawn, we learned that it wasn’t actually so specific. Oops; our bad.

But it’s a little better known that the RATs were not COVID-specific. Right in the test results, it says so. Several different viruses will cause a positive result. A positive calls for another specific test to which virus.

And that’s a problem, because Johns Hopkins, Worldometer, and the CDC lump PCR positives and antigen positives together in their total ChinCOVID case counts. So we know the case numbers are inflated. And with the bad Innova RATs, we know it’s even worse than we thought.

Lessee, yesterday Georgia DPH reported 1,975 cases. Johns Hopkins claimed 3,587 new cases. From that we know they lumped in at least Georgia’s reported 1,749 “antigen cases,” and then some.

We have a count problem. All because idiots are assuming an antigen-positive is a “case.”

That brings us to the so-called “breakthrough cases,” people testing positive for ChinCOVID after full vaccination. You know what I’d like to see, but which no one seems to report?

How many of those “breakthrough cases” are based on antigen tests?

The emergency use authorized pseudo-vaccines are all designed to do the same thing: cause your body to produce SARS-CoV-2-type spike proteins, which in turn train the immune system to recognize the real SARS-CoV-2 virus.

Spike protein. I.E. antigen. Antigen, as in “antigen test.”

How much of the “surge” in new cases is really the surge in vaccinated suckers, and all because the CDC calls antigen-positives “cases”?

Added, 7/29/2021: Makes me wonder:

Dave Martinez, the Nationals’ manager, announced the positive COVID cases in a news conference Wednesday. Martinez said shortstop Trea Turner was one of the players who tested positive and said only one of the positive cases came from a person who was not vaccinated.

Hypersonic Laser Guns?

Well, the Chinese may be working on this, but I’m dubious of it being operational any time soon.

Chinese Military Mounting ‘Laser Guns’ to Hypersonic Vehicles (Aircraft and Missiles) to Increase Speed and Range
Well, this isn’t good. Apparently, they’ve been busy little beavers over there at Beijing’s Space Engineering University, developing a “powerful laser gun” mounted onto hypersonic missles and aircraft to increase speed (and obviously range) by cutting air resistance by 70 percent (70%) or more. According to the Chinese laser experts, the laser gun “can change the shock wave structure in front of the hypersonic vehicle and then change the speed and pressure distribution to achieve drag reduction” by creating a teardrop-shaped plasma cloud in front of the aircraft or missile. Basically, the plasma cloud generates foward-moving air/wind in front of the hypersonic aircraft or missile by spinning in opposite directions.

That sounds like laser-induced supercavitation. But unless they have some near-magical laser and energy storage tech, I think it would be of limited utility. The laser and power source will be massive; that will cut into vehicle payload. So much so that I would expect there would be no weapons payload. This might work for a couple of applications.

Hypersonic reconnaisance vehicles (SR-71 on steroids)
Hypersonic kinetic kill projectiles (hypersonic sabot rounds)

On the bright side, ionizing plasma will prevent this from being at all stealthed. The plasma field should really light up on radar.

There will be some practical complications. If the hypersonic vehicle is going to be at all maneuverable, I think the laswer will need to be steerable, adding the system mass; you need to be able to turn into your leading plasma field, not out of it in a turn (kind of like driving at night, and making a turn onto a road where your headlights aren’t yet pointing).

But if they got a aa high power laser — capable of continuously generating plasma for an extended period of time), I can think of some other weapon ideas that have noting to do with vehicles or projectiles.

If ChinCOVID Were “Gun Violence”

Parody Alert*

The DOJ today released new gun violence guidance, advising universal ballistic vest wearing. But Attorney General Merrick Garland cautioned people not to purchase Level II and III vests, leaving those for law enforcement professionals.

When asked why people should settle for Level I vests that don’t stop most modern pistol rounds, Garland angrily responded, “Follow the science! Level I works, you ignorant red-stater.”

Garland also noted that wearing vests will encourage everyone to voluntarily turn in their firearms and end the gun violence pandemic. He refused to answer questions regarding how being inadequately protected by obsolete Level I vests will encourage honest citizens to give up their remaining protection, aside from screeching, “Science!” over and over.

Dang; I had to do a bit of searching to find a page that even mentions the old Level I anymore. But yeah, it’s like that:

Fauci: New Mask Recommendations Will Incentivize People to Get Vaccinated
On Tuesday’s “PBS NewsHour,” White House Chief Medical Adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci said he believes that new mask recommendations by the CDC will serve as an incentive for people to get vaccinated.

Telling folks to wear a mask even if they’ve been vaccinated doesn’t tell them to get vaccinated. It tells them vaccination doesn’t work.

Sorry, Fauxci; most of us still aren’t as stupid — or dishonest — as you.

* I shouldn’t even have to say that, but in today’s America — where the average IQ score is dropping like a rock on Jupiter — some idiot would believe I was passing this off as real. But this is the America where Babylon Bee gets “fact-checked.”

CDC To Announce That ChinCOVID “Vaccines” Don’t Work

Which has been becoming more apparent as they go from 1 jab; to 2 jabs; to OK, maybe you’ll need an annual booster; to Um, make that every six months; to We dunno, quarterly?

BREAKING: CDC to reverse guidance and tell vaccinated people to mask up
The CDC is expected to announce a reversal in their masking recommendations on Tuesday, instructing even vaccinated Americans to once again wear masks indoors, as the Delta variant continues to make its way through parts of the US.

The agency recommended just two months ago that those who had received two doses of vaccine would no longer require masks in indoor settings. The recommendation was a polarizing one, applauded by some experts for being sensible, with others criticize the move for being premature.

The only reason for “vaccinated” people to mask up is that the pseudo-vaccines don’t work.

And unless you wear an N95 mask, masking isn’t doing jack anyway. I’ve tried explaining that for the past year, but it seems that the “science” of the SARS-CoV-2 virus is 32 times smaller than a smoke particle is difficult for public indoctrination victims to grasp. Let’s try a picture.

If you can smell smoke through your mask, the mesh is not tight enough to block aerosolized virus.

N95 masks make use of an electrostatic effect to capture tiny viruses. That box of masks you picked up at Loews are not N95.

Oh, and if you wore an N95 mask long enough to get it damp with sweat or just the moisture in your breath… It isn’t blocking viruses anymore. Moisture destroys the electrostatic effect, rendering the mask useless. Unless you moonlight as a bank robber.

Huh; never saw that before.

Recently, some neighbors moved away. They gave my sister some potted plants they didn’t want to take along. One is in a rather large pot.

The problem was, when it rained that pot would fill to the brim. It wasn’t draining. I thought maybe it was slow to drain because it was sitting directly on the ground, so I set it up on some bricks.

Well, we just got another couple of inches of rain. I looked out there… Yep; danged thing was full again. Still didn’t drain.

So this time went I went to tip it over, I took a screwdriver along, figuring the drain hole must be plugged up.

It was. Literally.

A real, rubber plug. I’ve never seen that in a plant pot before. Yeah, I pulled it and water just poured out. Prob solved.

[Update] CDC Is Withdrawing the EUA For Its ChinCOVID PCR Test

See update below.

Notice here.

After December 31, 2021, CDC will withdraw the request to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) of the CDC 2019-Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Real-Time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel, the assay first introduced in February 2020 for detection of SARS-CoV-2 only. CDC is providing this advance notice for clinical laboratories to have adequate time to select and implement one of the many FDA-authorized alternatives.

Hmm. We knew that the PCR test was designed against a wild-ass guess as to SARS-CoV-2’s RNA sequence, and that it would test positive for an array of coronaviruses. But look at this part; emphasis is mine.

In preparation for this change, CDC recommends clinical laboratories and testing sites that have been using the CDC 2019-nCoV RT-PCR assay select and begin their transition to another FDA-authorized COVID-19 test. CDC encourages laboratories to consider adoption of a multiplexed method that can facilitate detection and differentiation of SARS-CoV-2 and influenza viruses.

I’m not sure what that means. It might be merely that they want labs to devise 2-in-1 testing for both ChinCOVID and influenza. That may be so doctors don’t have to go back and order a second test for the flu if the COVID test comes back negative.

But the phrasing could also suggest that the current CDC joke-test cannot differentiate between a coronavirus and an influenza virus. That would account for the miraculously nearly nonexistent flu season we just “had.” If the COVID PCR test pops positive on flu, everything is ChinCOVID. (see update below)

Update, 8/1/2021: According to Kaiser Health the reason for the change in PCR testing to “differentiate” between ChinCOVID and influenza is not because the test went positive for either.

“The CDC is pulling their test ‘off the market’ as a gesture to encourage labs to use tests that include reagents (primers and probes) for both SARS-CoV-2 and Influenza so providers, labs, states, and CDC will have better data this fall and winter to estimate how much of clinical influenza-like illness is due to SARS-CoV-2 and how much is due to seasonal influenza,” Polage said in an email.

Basically, my first guess was correct. In the past flu season, so few flu tests were ordered that they really have no idea how many flu cases there were. Since symptoms overlap so much, it was more lucrative for hospitals to just call everything COVID-19, and get the CMS bonus. In a rare flash of competence, someone at the CDC decided to encourage combination tests so someone could still track next flu season.
