How about long before COVID nonfiction?

You may find it interesting that in the greater Seattle area, I made many relationships in the Fire service and I kept my ear to the ground when it came to health and fitness and when FFs would die on or off duty in the area. I started the health and wellness program at a smaller NW city before working for Seattle after being a cancer survivor in 2015.

I know of 8 firefighters (5 personally knowing) who have died between Spring 2021 to Spring 2022. There were probably a few more. All under 45 and relatively physically fit with no chronic health issues. All “died suddenly” though 2 had started to be seen because of chest discomfort while training or working out prior to their death. All 5 I knew I found out were within days of a 2nd dose or booster.

Spending the 15 years prior paying attention to cardiac and cancer deaths, the frequency and demographics leading up to the mass COVID shot campaign, I never saw a trend like this. Never. Not even close.

When a 55+ year old firefighter who is morbidly obese has a heart attack within 24hrs or responding to a fire or on the fire scene, it is tragic but makes sense.

If a retired or late in their career firefighter is diagnosed with a terminal cancer and at some point the battle ends, also not out of the realm of probability and is one of the risks you accept with the career.

when a physically fir 35 or 40 year old with no cardiac history, and we are screened diligently in WA, dies of a cardiac event while running in the am before shift or going to lay down after not feeling well at the gym, you can bet the it ie way out of the norm.

due to the fact this was not happening in 2020 or the initial months of 2021, where would you start your theory or hypothesis?

For the first 18 months of the pandemic, Seattle Fire, with a pool of about 1,000 uniformed employees, averaged about 10-15 cases of covid in ant given month. They sought to terminate even their religious and medical exempted from the vax mandate despite the fact that when they announced the mandate, 70% were vaccinated and 30% declared they were not. July, Aug, & Sept 2021 the average of the cases stayed the same and 70-80% of those who tested positive for Covid were vaccinated.

After the removal of about 100 members who were terminated, resigned or retired early due to the mandate by Oct 18th 2021, the Fire Department had over 80 cases of covid in Dec 2021 and even more in January 2022 while all working staff had taken the spike protein genetic generating shots.

Now the department has struggled through a staffing crisis they fail to recover from with terrible recruiting strategies.

Truth is truth, they were dramatically ineffective, not tester nearly long enough by an extremely compromised and bias FDA, and the safety tracking has either not been done or is being ignored.

Had to look up when the Tuskegee experiment began and it was in 1932!! Can't believe it went on that long.

No Novel, sure not. Facts are besser in this case.

Covid detection (you said you and your sister had it) went entirely through PCR-Testing. That test, developed by a German liar called Drosten (neither is he professor, just on post with that title, paid by the billionaire family Quandt) nor can he proof to be a doctor. His alleged doctorate couldn´t be located by his alma mater the "Goethe-Universität zu Frankfurt am Main" (I´m still living in that country called Germany) although the search went on for 9 months.

That test from Mr. Drosten had such enormous flaws that even the FDA concluded (after much too long) to replace it with a socalled multiplex test which can distinct several Corona-Viruses as well as RSV and influenca (et. al.)

The biggest flaw of the test is that it is only limited to the detection of two epitomes N and E, for envelope and nucleus, and cannot detect the S (for spike) at all.

The inventor of that test and noble laureate because of it (you might suspect some expertise from this person), Kary Mullis repeatedly throughout his career informed the public that his test could find almost everything but never detect an infection. That is crucial.......

To make it worse the WHO who endorsed this test within a couple of days (after it was "peer reviewed" in world record time - less than 24 hours) then recommended, it would be fine to reduce the two epitomes to one either E or N. Which made that Test an absolute blunder.

So one has to ask, whatever you or your sister had may have been C19, but this is by no means certain. The test was the basis for the fraud, but there are many other aspects to it.

Several countries who emphasized the risks and suffering of "Long Covid" meanwhile closed down their specialized clinics because it turned out that almost all patients had severe psychological problems but nothing stemming from Covid (Sorry for the inconvience).

Probably the biggest misunderstanding in this text dear Shermann is the term "Anti-Vaxxers". Sure there are some and there arguments first had to be falsified but the overwhelming majority of opponents of the C19 “vaccine” are critics of the fact that a product that could at best be described as a “therapy” has been mislabeled as a vaccination. Not to mention the fact that it has still not been approved and the necessary thorough tests have not been duly carried out.

Another undeniable sign of the lack of reflection on the part of the author is this:

“Someday, the 10% kill rate pandemic will arrive and the anti-vaxxers will be denying it exists as they’re bleeding out of their eyes.”

It is common knowledge since at least hundred years that a pandemic of that sort of fatality rate will soon extinct itself. Look up Ebola and ask yourself why this highly dangerous sickness never has spread far and wide.

Should be enough for this moment.

To make clear:

My yellow book is well filled with stamps & signatures, even from recent time but never will that injectable product find its way into my body.

For which you will have your liberty taken from you at his majesties pleasure. Porridge. How metrics, measurements, solid facts became our wrathful god. Mathematics was forced on the nation. The kids who were good at maths and science at school applied this learning to the world and took over. Forcing us to flee - the law will catch up with you though. The wordy empty law, the empty writers who had nothing to write bout joined forces with the kids who were good at maths and science and they wreaked their revenge apon the world

I guess the fact that demand for vaccines was high. You will

Be gotten to. Remain patient and you will be called. Strange how to be out on the streets was a crime. And now in England, to think of a crime is a crime, to say something wrong is a crime.

The meek will inherit the earth - the strange will survive covid. The lonely. The anti- social. The self sufficient. The less well integrated will have the upper hand. Those who trust no one. Those who perform tasks in awkward, humiliating rituals, who look different. Those used to rejection. The most bizarre vivid story was the one of the rich couple who flew to an Indian reservation in a helicopter to get the vaccine - jump the que - presumably to impersonate American Indian community members. Possibly high on cocaine and perhaps white. In mad deep love on an adventure into their own insanity. They got their shots. Does the future belong to these numbskulls?

It raises so many primordial existential instinctive decision making quandaries. Like in the road (cormac) who do you take with you, who do you leave behind? Who is the captain? Is their a democracy? What are others doing? Who are invisible - in a world where walls have become weaponised - well they always were.

That was an interesting piece. I think when two opposing thoughts exist at the same time, one cancelling out or contradicting the other - then it feels like ping pong, or bouncing off the walls of a corridor. The passion that is needed to travel a route lived in, and experienced rarely has these two sides, the sides whizz by like the scenery glimpsed out of the corner of the eye whilst the juggernaut of inexorable unstoppable motion carries us further on, like a toddler heading towards the edge of a bouncy castle, unable to stop, only able to remain upright through an instinct which may mean a rough landing. In a covid novel the experience would be a singular thought. Born by an entity intent on survival. Cursing the modern super sight afforded by microscopes - imaginary beasties in the carpet and German land mines of spike proteins (prow-teens) invisible but multitudinous. The murderous sneeze. The invasion of foreign bodies. Each breath a Trojan horse situation.

This is SO brilliant because you’re not afraid of the truth — and you’re incapable of being tribal (pun intended). 😀Independent thought is such a rarity that I sort of assume most people who look like me (other kind of indian tho') - blindly buy into the insane leftist-elitist-pro-big-govt madness that passes for I don’t even know what - so I’m even more glad I met you.

Hi Reena,

recommendation: revisit the article and have a look for this person:

When you said you were a lefty I quit reading. There is no way to convince a liberal to accept the truth today.

Maybe the people wearing masks have a cold and don’t want to give it to others.

Phooey, Covid was bioengineered and set forth for a purpose and there is no room for equivocation unless you are a pawn of big pharma and worse, or at least equally bad, its not intelligent its bupkis, sorry
