PC—Pandemic Consciousness

Eighteen months ago we all crossed a line into our biotechnology future. Many people were forced over the line by governments and medical administrators, none of whom really had any clue what line they were crossing.

This has pushed the scientific, psychological, and political consequences of novel medical intervention into new territory.

Early on in the pandemic, scientists and regulators were asking questions. For example, prior to the vaccine purchase agreement, Medsafe here in New Zealand, in common with many regulators around the world, asked very probing and exacting questions of Pfizer.

Then something changed as if a switch had been flipped. As the vaccine rollout began, a line was crossed without apparent regard for consequences:

  • Tolerance of vaccine hesitancy became mRNA vaccine mandates
  • Doubts about mRNA vaccine safety became an eviction offense for GPs
  • Without any safety data, mRNA vaccination was deemed safe during pregnancy, for the very young, and for the immunocompromised
  • Crucially there was denial of the significance of rampant adverse effects

These decisions are indicative of an impaired psychological profile:

  • Reduced tolerance of difference or reasoned dissent
  • Reduced capacity for emotional empathy and care
  • Reduced time competence—in other words scientific lessons from the past were ignored as if they had no relevance
  • Abandonment of long established processes of safety assessment
  • Reduced capacity for flexibility, and increased rigidity
  • Exaggerated perceptions of personal vulnerability
  • Exclusion of stakeholders and erstwhile colleagues if they demurred

Nothing illustrates this better than the treatment of myocarditis

Prior to the pandemic it was well known that paediatric myocarditis is not a mild condition.

A review in the Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease (2016) entitled Myocarditis in Paediatric Patients: Unveiling the Progression to Dilated Cardiomyopathy and Heart Failure reported on a long-term study examining the prognosis of children who suffered from myocarditis.

The study found that at 20 years post-diagnosis 44% of children had either required a heart transplant or died.

The causal factors were known to include viral infection, toxins, metabolic abnormalities, systemic autoimmune diseases, and drug hypersensitivity—all possible complicating factors following both Covid infection and vaccination.

Unbelievably, when it became apparent that myocarditis was a potential outcome of Covid vaccination early in 2021, the Prime Minister and the Ministry of Health reassured New Zealand parents that it was a rare, mild, self-limiting condition.

Why on earth were they saying this? At this time there was no long term data and there still isn’t.

There were multiple and persistent reports of individuals with classic symptoms of myocarditis, such as chest pain, shortness of breath, and heart arrhythmia, being turned away by GPs and EDs with the diagnosis that they were anxious and just needed to take ibuprofen.

In October, the government mandated mRNA vaccination for most of the working population.

By the end of the year, over 20,000 people had reported symptoms typical of myopericarditis following mRNA vaccination. Even Medsafe admitted this rate of cases was a gross underestimate. It was also clear from the research that the risk increased with each inoculation.

Despite this, Dr. Ashley Bloomfield was still denying mRNA vaccination exemptions to many people who had these symptoms following their first shot. This was at complete odds with medical ethics, and even exceeded Pfizer’s own recommendations.

Belatedly in mid December 2021, eight months after erroneously telling the public it was a mild condition, Dr. Ashley Bloomfield had second thoughts and possibly realised something had gone wrong. He sent out an urgent letter to District Health Board heads warning them to be on the lookout to catch and treat post-vaccinal myo- and peri-carditis.

Both Covid infection and vaccination can result in myocarditis, but progressively through published research, it has become apparent that the risk of myopericarditis among young people is significantly higher after mRNA vaccination than after Covid infection.

It is also now clear that emergency call outs for cardiac events (a known complication of myopericarditis) among all ages are statistically related to mRNA vaccination, but not to prior Covid infection.

The Government Appears Incapable of Changing Course

Still, the government is persisting with saturation advertising advising the public that mRNA vaccinations including boosters are safe and effective for the young.

Still, doctors who have urged caution remain sidelined. Still, universities are mandating mRNA vaccination as a prerequisite for study.

It is hard to escape the notion that there has been a measure of psychological impairment during the pandemic, an intellectual incapacity to reject unsupported hypotheses and take remedial actions. How could this have happened?

Consciousness and Matter

Life is made up of both consciousness and matter. They interface seamlessly. They are two sides to one coin. Every thought has a counterpoint in our physiology. Every physical event involves a change in consciousness.

Consciousness is not a material machine, it is an abstract field of alertness. We are not human because we have specific extra genes for tool use and language as was once thought, rather like extra cogs in a clockwork brain.

Our consciousness works alongside a vast, complex, interconnected network of trillions of cells.

DNA is the Interface Between Consciousness and Matter

The interface between consciousness and matter in our physiology is our DNA. Behind our DNA lies the enormous power of the laws of physics, the DNA translates this creative power into a code written with four letters. These four letters contain the instructions which keep us alive and well.

Very early on, as the secrets of the genetic code were uncovered, scientists discovered that it was a code like no other. It is not only linear in the sense that it can be read like a book in sequence, but it is also non-linear. Parts of the DNA help to complete not just one, but a number of different functions.

Genetic sequences distant from one another along the DNA helix cooperate to achieve outcomes.

Moreover the DNA functions as part of an extended epidemiological network within cells, organs, and the whole physiology

Crucially, exactly how the DNA helps to create higher human functions, such as intelligence and empathy which characterise human consciousness, is unknown.

We do know however our consciousness is paired with and depends upon abstract networked field properties connecting cells, neurons, and organ systems into the WHOLE conscious system that is us. We have not even begun to grasp how these network systems function holistically.

A New Medical Era has Begun and No One Knows What They Are Doing

Whilst the complete picture of how the DNA orchestrates the physiology is unknown, it is known that editing one part of the DNA always does lead to unintended consequences—this is a law of genetics.

One thing we know for sure, physiological systems are very precise, they are not random. They rely on homeostatic feedback mechanisms, the protective effects of our immune system, and DNA repair systems that are constantly active, completing septillions (1024) of repairs every day in our physiology.

Like children let loose in a pharmacy full of small packets that look like they contain candy, commercial biotechnology companies have jumped into crude human applications of biotech research originating with gene therapy.

Without evidence, they have assumed that alterations in the operation of DNA will leave our complex higher human functions intact.

What Caused Changes to Psychology and Behaviour?

Families have been divided in bitter disputes, governments have ploughed ahead impervious to rational argument and human rights. Traditional practice of debate and balanced argument has been refused.

Political and constitutional safeguards have been ignored in an overreach of power. It is very hard to deny that there has been a failure of individual and collective intelligence.

Were these extremes due to fear of disease along with a need for social conformity in times of danger akin to war?

Some have posited mass formation or psychosis as a collective mechanism, thereby attitudes begin to conform to a pattern as acceptance aggregates.

Certainly at every level from international to national to local there was excessive use of public relations techniques. Did governments begin to believe their own exaggerations?

There are also huge commercial financial imperatives at play.

Whatever was going on behind the scenes, we shall probably never know the whole story and in a sense speculation is fruitless.

But is it also plausible to suggest that mRNA vaccination itself has contributed to psychological instability in some cases?

Could mRNA vaccination, which alters the way our immune system interrelates with the DNA, upset the holistic functioning of the physiology to the extent that it also affects our psychology? It might be possible.

Our lack of knowledge in this area just reinforces how foolhardy it is to experiment with genetic alterations to our immune system function. We should pause biotechnology experimentation and applications immediately.

An Urgent Information Alert for Doctors and Medical Professionals

On 15 December 2021 Dr. Ashley Bloomfield wrote to District Health Boards describing the risks of Myocarditis and Pericarditis following vaccination. He estimated that the incidence of cases was 3 per 100,000 vaccinations. We note that this is little different from the expected background rate. Accordingly, Dr. Bloomfield described the risk as ‘serious’ but ‘very rare’.

Dr. Bloomfield described the New Zealand symptomatology as:

  • Chest heaviness, discomfort, tightness, or pain
  • Difficulty breathing, shortness of breath
  • Feeling dizzy, light-headed or faint
  • Racing or fluttering heart, or a feeling of ‘skipped beats’

    Dr. Bloomfield said that serious complications can be avoided with timely assessment and treatment. He warned against leaving the condition untreated.

Medsafe publishes an Adverse Events Following Immunisation (AEFI) spreadsheet. We have extracted figures for myocarditis rates current to 22 February 2022. This shows that the actual incidence of myocarditis for under 40 year olds is between 4 to 7 times higher than the expected rate per 100,000 vaccinations. Considerably higher than Dr. Bloomfield hoped.

The latest New Zealand figures we report above are broadly confirmed by a recent study (SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination and Myocarditis in a Nordic Cohort Study of 23 Million Residents) in Nordic countries and by figures from other countries.

We further note that the New England Journal of Medicine in an editorial has raised concerns about the use of boosters among younger (under 40) age groups.

In a parallel development, a report published by Nature (Increased emergency cardiovascular events among under-40 population in Israel during vaccine rollout and third COVID-19 wave) has found that the incidence of emergency medical call outs for cardiac events is statistically related to Pfizer mRNA vaccination, but not related to Covid infection:

“…the findings raise concerns regarding vaccine-induced undetected severe cardiovascular side-effects and underscore the already established causal relationship between vaccines and myocarditis, a frequent cause of unexpected cardiac arrest in young individuals.

We want to alert the medical profession to the potential time bomb for New Zealand healthcare that these two findings together raise. There is a real possibility that subclinical or mild cases of myocarditis following Covid vaccination suggested by the symptomatology above (of which CARM has noted tens of thousands of reports) have in fact been missed or insufficiently treated.

It appears that the initial assessment by the Ministry of Health might have underestimated the potential for serious cardiac complications of mRNA vaccination, both short term and long term.

Myocarditis has been diagnosed as a problem following 1, 2, and booster doses of the Pfizer mRNA vaccine. Some medical experts in the USA have suggested recently that the routine administration of diagnostic tests in cases of chest pain etc. might be useful in gauging the seriousness and potential long term effects of following mRNA vaccination. We note troponin tests are inexpensive and can rapidly detect cardiac damage.

We are aware of multiple reports of an increased rate of cardiac events in New Zealand among all age groups, but especially concerning are events for younger people, both male and female. These may be preventable. We are concerned about the lack of availability of up to date centralised data on the current rates of cardiac events in hospital EDs, in the community, and from GPs. At the present time, the public is ill-informed about the levels of risk.

If you are reading this as a medical professional, we suggest that if you are in possession of evidence of increased risks or you are concerned or puzzled in any way by increased caseloads or individual cases, it would be sensible and professionally ethical to speak up now, exchange information within your professional circles, and take appropriate precautionary action.

HatchardReport.com suggests that readers circulate this to doctors.

The Post-Pandemic Medical State

A few months ago I requested that the local authority remove a couple of trees on their land that were leaning dangerously over our driveway.

Today I received an email affirming that they had completed the work. I went down to look at the result and the trees were still standing. They had ticked all the boxes, assessed tree health, taken photographs, written reports, and then axed some trees somewhere, but not mine.

I immediately thought: “This is why you shouldn’t put the government in sole charge of your personal health

This week our government announced that it was extending the success (??) of the pandemic vaccination programme to include multiple other vaccines. It is creating a personal vaccination journal for every person.

No thanks, I want to write my own journal and retain my right of informed decision and medical privacy. My father died after being prescribed medication that was contraindicated for his condition. It was a mistake for which no one accepted responsibility and there was no redress.

As long as they follow the rule book supplied by the pharmaceutical industry, doctors will get paid whether their patients get better or not. They will not face discipline even if their patients die as a result.

medical misadventure is the third leading cause of death

In fact, medical misadventure is the third leading cause of death. 50% of the population suffer from at least one chronic illness—illness which will never get better despite a lifetime of medication. The pharmaceutical industry makes so much profit, that even when they do lose in court, it’s a flea bite in their cash flow.

If a surgeon cuts off the wrong leg, he will face court proceedings, so why don’t GPs and the drug manufacturers face meaningful consequences if their drug prescriptions cause harm?

The New Zealand Bill of Rights is Being Ignored

Although New Zealand doesn’t have a written constitution as such, it does have a set of practices and values which are underpinned by statutes and conventions. These include the right of medical choice.

Curiously, the medical profession, encouraged by the government, seems to be mostly exempt from these rules. Employers now also have a right to invade your medical privacy and insist that they control what goes in your body.

I’m appealing to ordinary people here to think this through. If someone is doing a job but there are few if any consequences when something goes horribly wrong, is that a good system?

I hope you are saying NO.

Now, what if they are not even obliged to explain themselves or catch up with the latest knowledge in their field? What if compliance is compulsory?

That is precisely the situation we find ourselves in. For the last few weeks I have been highlighting newly published studies in leading journals pointing to serious dangers of mRNA vaccination, but the medical profession is keeping mum.

Worse, there is still an unending stream of government advertising urging boosters and advising of their efficacy and safety. Employers are still enforcing mandates with the sanction of the government.

Your employer now owns certain rights over your body

There is a long history here of erosion of ethical standards and safety procedures. Doctors appear to be advising the government to require us to pop the pills and suffer the shots, but they don’t want to be responsible for what happens and they want to get paid, come what may. Your employer now owns certain rights over your body.

The government says it is obliged to ensure that everyone follows medical advice. Obligated by what and by whom? No one seems to know, because there is no law that says that should be the case (quite the reverse actually).

We could call it a case of constitutional overreach, but this would be just a few fancy words covering up what in any other profession would be called a crime.

If a fun fair ride collapses, injuring some children, the owner is responsible. There are no arguments that can be advanced in mitigation. The owner cannot say thousands have ridden safety and these ones were just unlucky. Yet that is precisely the medical excuse.—Thousands have been vaccinated, some have died—unfortunate, but necessary.

How so necessary? We now know mRNA vaccination is not preventing transmission, hospitalisation, or death from Covid. It should be quite clear by now that the protection promised through mRNA vaccination is a faded dream promoted by pharmaceutical companies, hired experts, compliant doctors, and paid media. Certainly, no reason to hand over our right of medical choice to the post-pandemic medical state.

The Post-pandemic State is Manipulative

Yesterday (and most days) we were given a taste of what the post-pandemic medical state looks like. It was revealed the government has been paying Fuse Creative, a brand agency, to promote pandemic policy.

As a result, pop stars like Anika Moa and pop culture radio stations like The Edge and many others have been pumping out the good oil. Fuse Creative alone reportedly received $50,000 for one weekend’s work.

Presumably in the near future medical product placement will be normalised.

In the next Zombie Apocalypse movie, expect to see the zombies injected with something labelled mRNA. Miraculously they will be restored, a few unlucky zombies might drop dead, then the hero will tell us that it is the price of freedom.

Today a Guardian article written by Ian Sample (or was it Simple?) used phrases like “the roaring success of Covid vaccines” adjacent to phrases like “the virus remains rampant in the face of mass immunity”. The combination of hyperbole and oxymoron dazzles.

The article went on to say we need a nasal vaccine to complement the mRNA injection. Possibly in some future medical dystopia (which might just be now), the rich will wear aqualungs with vaccine added to their air and the poor will just have to spray it on their fish and chips.

If we swallow this tripe, we only have ourselves to blame. Highly qualified scientists (more and more of them) are sounding the alarm, while the paid media remain stuck in a grove. Doctors are keeping the faith. They are prepared to go down with the ship.

Questions are Being Ignored

We ordinary citizens should remember it is normal to ask questions and abnormal to refuse to answer. The list of unanswered questions has become very long.

It is extraordinary to listen to the outrage of medical experts, the government, and the media if their pandemic advice is challenged. Puffed up with importance, immunity from prosecution, and lack of accountability, the medical profession has guided the whole country across legal boundaries. Given an inch, they have taken a mile, and now wish for more.

If you have a reaction after eating peanuts, your doctor will tell you to avoid them. If you have a reaction after vaccination, Dr. Ashley Bloomfield will likely require you to have more shots.

This is the new post-pandemic medical state, all aboard or you will lose your job. Steel yourself to be pricked and poisoned by someone who has assumed constitutional supremacy, while the government and their loyal opposition nod sagely in approval.

No one is above the law. We do have a Bill of Rights. It should be followed.

Israeli Study Finds Emergency Cardiac Events Associated With mRNA Vaccination

All Cause Mortality Rises Around The World

New Zealand Government is Failing to Warn our Population of Links

A study published in the prestigious journal Nature entitled “Increased emergency cardiovascular events among under-40 population in Israel during vaccine rollout and third COVID-19 wave” has found that incidence of emergency medical call outs for cardiac events is statistically related to Pfizer mRNA vaccination but not related to Covid infection. The study says:

“…the findings raise concerns regarding vaccine-induced undetected severe cardiovascular side-effects and underscore the already established causal relationship between vaccines and myocarditis, a frequent cause of unexpected cardiac arrest in young individuals.”

In New Zealand an article in Stuff reports a rise in cardiac events and a reduced survival rate in 2020/2021:

“Fewer New Zealanders are surviving cardiac arrests that occur outside of hospital, with survival rates down for the second consecutive year – a fact experts believe is linked to disruptions caused by the Covid-19 pandemic”

Suff article: Fewer people surviving cardiac arrests in community, 1 in 4 get to hospital alive

The NZ government is not releasing current data concerning hospital admissions for cardiac problems. In contrast the Israeli study concludes:

“Surveillance of potential vaccine side-effects and COVID-19 outcomes should incorporate emergency call out and other health data to identify public health trends and promptly investigate potential underlying causes.”

The New Zealand government is still maintaining that mRNA vaccination reduces the risk of hospitalisation and death despite its own figures which show that hospitalisation rates among the boosted are higher than those of the unvaccinated. Moreover, a Danish study in The Lancet reports that mRNA vaccines do not reduce mortality.

In a quick round-up, we can report that all-cause mortality has risen in a wide range of countries coinciding with vaccine rollouts. Rises have been reported in Canada, Cyprus, US, EU, and here in NZ. Hospitals in the UK are reporting large rises in the volume of cardiac cases. Birmingham NHS up 87% in 2021. Blackpool NHS up 400% in 2021, Guy’s and St. Thomas’ up 400% in 2021. We have already covered the rise in insurance claims for death among working age people in the USA and the high incidence of vaccine injuries in the armed forces.

The point I wish to make is that the New Zealand government is aboard the Titanic rearranging the deckchairs, apparently regarding multiple reports of vaccine injury and death as normal. The general public has been kept in the dark.

In an April 12th Ministry of Health release Dr Ashley Bloomfield said

“COVID-19 has highlighted that making evidence based health decisions is good for the country’s wellbeing and economy.”

Which evidence is Dr. Bloomfield using?

Today I received a message from a friend. A 17 year old relative collapsed at the roadside with heart pains. The response of her parents to a suggestion that it could be vaccine related: “you must be joking”. This is where government information has left the public. The risks are real but the information is not.

This makes me terribly sad because it goes against the duty of care that our government and medical system owes the public. Young people are at risk of cardiac events following vaccination, but the risks are largely absent from the vaccine promotional advertising.

Who writes the advertising copy and who approves it? The Brothers Grimm? This is not a casual matter of minor misrepresentation, this is unconscionable.

A Global Agenda for Change in Sync With Nature and Its Rhythms

0

The chaotic responses to the pandemic in many countries have alerted us to the limitations of our governments’ ability to solve problems.

Today our Ministry of Health announced a new vaccine pass system requiring boosters and extended its potential use to encompass other vaccines. Yet simultaneously, as each day goes by, official data is exposing just how ineffective and dangerous the mRNA vaccines are.

Yesterday we wrote about constitutional reform in New Zealand under the title Exiting a Web of Deception. Many of you replied enthusiastically, but without much hope of actual change. You rightly pointed out that the diversity of NZ political opinions, and the fear initiated by pandemic misinformation, will undermine the level of national unity required to succeed in the constitutional arena.

When faced with an obstacle, our philosophy is to draw a bigger line. A few days ago I wrote about the Sovereign World of Plants as a global endeavour. Today we are beginning to elaborate this theme.

Our endeavours can become a global force in the true sense of the word. We recognise that the power of nature is the basis of our life—in reality nature rules the world and we are players on nature’s stage. Therefore we have a duty of care to protect nature, just as all indigenous cultures respect the natural world.

How Does Nature Rule?

The present crises of climate, health, conflict, pollution, and food security demand a rapid and comprehensive transformation in the world. Such comprehensive transformations from disorder to order are not rare in Nature. We hinted at these in a previous article Is Our Knowledge of Genetics Too Primitive to Edit Human DNA With Safety?.

The Second Law of Thermodynamics dictates that in any closed system disorder (or entropy) increases, but the thermodynamics of living systems work differently. New insight can be gained by discussing political transformations with reference to non-equilibrium thermodynamics which governs living systems as explained by Nobel Laureate Ilya Prigogine:

“We now know that far from equilibrium, new types of structures may originate spontaneously. In far-from-equilibrium conditions we may have transformation from disorder, from thermal chaos into order.”

These structures, known as ‘dissipative structures’, result from the flow of energy within the structure of the laws of nature. Through the self-interactions of natural law, living structures that reflect cosmic order, such as the DNA molecule, naturally emerge.

In a parallel way, it is possible that more successful orderly structures of governance can arise. This can happen when the field of human administration becomes more closely connected to its source in the balanced state of nature, just as the plant world is integrated with nature.

Administration Should Seek to Imitate Nature

Our proposed administrative model aims to imitate nature by discovering the principles which govern evolution in nature and utilising them in the field of human governance. From the physics of supersymmetry we know that the laws of nature are based on the unified level of nature at the smallest time and distance scales, which is a field of silent dynamism.

The laws of nature silently and efficiently organise the evolving universe based on the physical principle of least action. Silence rules.All the laws of nature can be expressed in a mathematical form where an action quantity is constantly minimised.Nature always takes the most efficient path which minimises the action expended. Nature does less and accomplishes more.

Manipulation of Nature Leads to Unintended Consequences

Political powers have assumed that human decision-making can mandate manipulation of nature without consequences. This involves a kind of arrogance that borders on madness. It fails to acknowledge both the delicate balance in nature and the lessons of historical missteps.

Genetic engineering is an extreme and misguided example of this wild attitude. Both genetically manipulated crops and gene therapy experiments have been singular failures with unexpected adverse effects. Gone are the promises of golden rice. GM crops have led to greater pesticide use, not less as promised. Thirty years of gene therapy has not banished inherited disease, but rather caused unintended consequences.

Our endeavours recognise that invasive genetic biotechnology is a threat to the stability of the natural world that needs to be immediately paused. Genetic mistakes can never be recalled. The pandemic has illustrated just how much genetic experimentation threatens all of us.

We Seek Recognition for the Sovereign Character of Nature

Our global initiative calls for less manipulation of the natural world. It wishes to protect the automatic mechanisms of evolution by refraining from invasive interference. It seeks to mirror the silent automatic governing role of the DNA in human physiology.

Unlike political institutions, the capacity of the plant kingdom to solve our problems cannot be corrupted by power. Yet in our modern life, we have lost the sense of respect, utility, and thanks that plants deserve. We have forgotten the healing properties of plants and many of their other uses. We have begun to view them as something to exploit.

This exploitation disrupts the thermodynamics of living systems—the source of our stability and evolution. The poisoning of land, insects, and microorganisms, the editing of genetic structures, and the pollution of the environment all fall under the third law of thermodynamics which leads to increased disorder—the opposite of evolution.

Starting in 2014, the longevity of the US population began to decline. The USA is that country which makes most use of genetic modification, which has the highest consumption per capita of pharmaceuticals, and whose agricultural system is most reliant upon chemicals. Chemicals that kill pests also damage our DNA. The writing is on the wall.

Respect for the Natural World Transcends National Boundaries

Concern for the natural world is a common goal of all nations. Everyone’s health and food security is inextricably tied up with that of the plant kingdom. We need to eat every day. People of all nations should make it a priority to protect the integrity of the plant world. The Sovereign World of Plants promotes the well being of all nations, in return we must recognise the need for common action to safeguard the natural world, our source of life.

  • Outlawing experimentation on the genetics of plants and animals
  • Rediscovering and valuing non-polluting skills that utilise plants and trees
  • Reviving the traditional herbal healing methods known by multiple cultures
  • Organic agriculture, free of chemicals which exhaust the soil and kill bees
  • Teaching sustainable practices for gardening, horticulture, and agriculture
  • Managing climate change through planting and preservation
  • Improving food supply by increasing the use of plants in diets
  • International sharing and celebration of the wonders of plants
  • Outlawing patents on any plant genetic sequences

In these ways we should seek to maintain a stable relationship with plants, not just in a metaphorical sense but in actuality use our knowledge and influence to sustain their sovereignty and protect their evolutionary genetic structures which underpin our own health. Such an agenda can unite people everywhere in harmony rather than suspicion and fear.

National Governments Must Acknowledge the Sovereignty of Nature

Throughout recent history, arrogant and uncaring treatment of nature has had serious outcomes. Biodiversity is rapidly decreasing, foreshadowing extinction events.

David Attenborough and many others have drawn upon their huge experience to warn of impending collapse. They have been largely ignored.

The priority assigned by each country to limited national interests has led to a form of global anarchy. Multinational mega corporations driven solely by profit are competing for control of the unregulated global space without regard to safety or survival. Most nations have ignored the dangers of these global exploitative enterprises, in favour of their narrow domestic obsessions.

Now is the moment when governments must recognise that each day marks a step closer to the precipice. Summoning the courage to change course is the measure of our integrity and humility, and the key to success. Very often this will just mean renouncing harmful actions, rather than interfering more.

The time has come. Measures can no longer be postponed. This will require a global educational effort.

Who Can Help Protect the Natural World?

This endeavour is open to people of all nations, religions, cultural values, and political opinions. It does not seek to usurp national sovereignty, but rather to nourish the basis of national sovereignty. If the integrity of the natural world collapses, so also will our political, economic, and social institutions collapse. If through folly or lack of knowledge the integrity of the natural world is threatened, it is the duty of everyone to correct that.

Whether one believes in God or reveres nature, whether one treasures cultural heritage or hopes for a bright future, it is our responsibility to ensure that nature is respected. Lovers of life everywhere can recognise the need of the time and raise their voices based on the science of the natural world.

Some people will contribute from the deep silence of the heart, others will continue to be a shepherd of the land, but now is the time when we have to formally recognise that nature is sovereign and must be allowed to continue unimpeded.

The flow of natural law is the source and mainstay of the thermodynamics of living systems, our mainstay, and the mainstay of all that we hold dear.

There is no other way, this is the lesson of the moment and the lesson of the long history of evolution. The sovereignty of nature can unite us all, the alternatives are unthinkable.

I will be talking more about these ideas during my Voices For Freedom video chat next weekend.

Exiting a Web of Deception

When I was at university I read a book by Vance Packard called The Hidden Persuaders*. It remains as relevant and true today as then.

*As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

Packard delved into the advertising world of branding and psychological manipulation of consumers. He realised that this involved a transformation of our traditional experience-based values into the acceptance of implanted ideas.

Prior to the advent of television, much of everyday knowledge came from personal experiences, book learning, peer interactions, and handed down traditions.

The Hidden Persuaders revealed the psychological techniques used to guarantee the acceptance of mass produced consumer items. Powerful admen were tapping the irrational propensities of the consumer mind, they used the applied psychology and sociology created by the propaganda arm of the government during World War II.

Very often we are susceptible to what we want to hear and believe, good comforting news favourable to our deepest desires is often far more acceptable to us than hard realities or uncomfortable truths.

Packard was writing 65 years ago, today we are a consumer society and a media-viewing public so attuned to carefully manufactured images that we have difficulty distinguishing reality from wishful thinking.

Subterfuge is Now a Mainstay of Business and Politics

The actual techniques of persuasive and deceptive advertising are not now taught as cautionary tales as they were in my day, but as prescriptions for success in the cut-throat world of politics and business.

We, the general public, are highly conditioned to accept the nuances of branding. 500 handbags may all serve virtually the same purpose, but their differences in price, quality, desirability, and utility are magnified by branding.

Similarly, 500 almost identical politicians are differentiated by branding rather than by their past actions and actual capabilities. They are schooled in hollow rhetoric and all the skills of the demagogue. They offer almost impossible possibilities to an electorate who have become conditioned to uncritically accept the exaggerated claims of advertising.

The regular acceptance of patently false or misleading ideas conditions the uncritical mind. We accept advertising telling us that we live In a clean green New Zealand, even when we know this is a manufactured dream and a gross exaggeration. Such uncritical acceptance weakens our psychology—we are no longer in charge of our truth.

Physical Harm has Become a Permitted Outcome of Government Policy

The real problem arises when politicians realise that they can effortlessly segue from wishing thinking to deliberate and criminal deception, without anyone being the wiser.

When deception involves turning a blind eye to physical injury, a line has been crossed. Such has become the case during the pandemic. We have heard that:

  • People do not suffer adverse effects from mRNA vaccines.
  • The vaccine will protect you from infection, hospitalisation, and death
  • Everyone hospitalized with Covid is unvaccinated.
  • The virus without doubt came from a wet market, (rather than a bioweapon laboratory).

The list is a long one….we are at a crossroads.

How do you Protect Distorted Reality From Discovery?

When you are advertising a faulty consumer product, eventually poor reviews, and competing products that work well, will kill it off. But:

  • What if there are no reviews allowed?
  • What if there are no competing products?
  • What if politicians are your only source of truth?
  • What if you are told that things would have been so much worse if you hadn’t got vaccinated?
  • What if you are swathed in a mask and discouraged from meeting your peers, or worse encouraged to fear them?

If you read history, you will recognise these as the tools of tyranny. If you watch television uncritically, you will be none the wiser. If you discourage communication between peers you are acting as a dictator.

Control of Information has Become a Matter of Faith

The PR machine that is informing us is highly skilled in deception. It recognises our human need for faith and shamelessly substitutes idolatry. The idols of the pandemic are mRNA vaccines. The false prophets are epidemiologists and modellers. The media is paid to agree.

Last week a Stuff newspaper editorial proudly trumpeted its new programme The Whole Truth aimed at medical misinformation. It is being funded by our government.

A government who also pays a New York PR firm to sample our social media posts. A government who pays a group of scientists—Te Punaha Matatini—to support their policies and label alternatives as conspiracy. A government who announces themselves as our one source of truth.

The sleight of hand is hard to identify if you are lost amongst the rampant fear mongering of the pandemic. In actuality 99% of our health arises from the food we eat, our daily routines and exercise, the rest of the night, and the joys of the day.

The PR dream that pharmaceuticals alone can offer quality of life or freedom from disease is a manufactured fantasy. Over the years, the protection offered by traditional medical ethics has been eroded as more and more adverse events from largely ineffective medicines are labelled acceptable, and even inevitable. Compulsory compliance comes next.

Constitutional Reform is a Way Ahead

Parliamentarians of all parties have engineered a coup in all but name. The overreach of power is unprecedented. The lack of constitutional protections is handicapping any efforts to resolve the manipulation of information.

  • Parliament is supreme. 62 newcomers can pass any law without reference to any long standing body of wisdom.
  • The NZ Bill of Rights is advisory only—we have no rights other than those granted to us by whomever happens to be in the majority this week.
  • We don’t have a formal written constitution—leaving the door open for the abuse of power.
  • Because of parliamentary privilege politicians are not obliged to speak the truth and there are no mechanisms such as impeachment to hold them to account for lying.
  • The judiciary serves the dictates of Parliament—there is little reference to universal and internationally-recognised standards of fairness.
  • Control of much of our economy and the media is in the hands of foreign entities and powers who wield a subtle influence on our government.
  • Levels of party allegiance and conformity restrict independent discussion.

Immediate Fixes That Avoid Social Disruption are Possible:

  • The NZ Bill of Rights could be ‘entrenched’ as a constitutional provision that is beyond the reach of parliament alone to alter. This will strengthen the individual rights that the judiciary can protect.
  • The control exercised by party whips can be reduced to allow MPs to vote more often according to conscience. For example by reducing the MMP threshold to one percent.
  • Parliamentarians should not be allowed to tell lies with impunity but should be subject to the same laws as anyone else.
  • Provisions of direct democracy such as those in Switzerland can be introduced and implemented through the use of modern technology.
  • Options for choices in health and education need to be strengthened.

Firstly a NZ constitutional conference should be called to discuss these and other issues which would strengthen the accountability of our democratic institutions.

The second step towards a resolution requires the formation and election of a single issue party with broad support dedicated to specific constitutional reforms.

Upon completion of reform, a second election would allow the appointment of a new government functioning under a constitutional umbrella that guarantees freedom of information and protection of individual rights.

Knowledge is Independent of Parliament

Importantly, our new constitution needs to recognise that knowledge is independent of the exercise of parliamentary authority. Knowledge has its own canons of veracity. Knowledge is matter of:

  • Personal experience and experiment
  • Scientific rigour and logical analysis
  • Extended use and evaluation of safety

Government in its essence involves the capacity to balance individual and social interests. The recognition of knowledge sufficient to guide such a balanced policy requires debate, experiment, proof, and consensus among all the stakeholders of society, not just one group or special interest.

Such reform will require courage and perseverance. New Zealand has a long history of social innovation and fairness. We can rise to the task, and leave the mistakes of yesterday behind.

The Pandemic was Yesterday Today We Have a Serious Problem

0

Anthony Fauci has declared that the pandemic is over and Denmark has decided to cease their vaccination programme. New Zealand has decided to vaccinate and mask its population into the foreseeable future. Those dissenting are being shunned, reviled, excluded, and their voices stifled.

Leadership is not about telling people what to do, it involves helping people to fulfil their aspirations and being able to utilize non-conformity. Actually, non-conformity is misunderstood, non-conformists are often the creatives that drive progress.

non-conformists are often the creatives that drive progress.

This morning in the Independent newspaper there was an article “Heat Battery invention could make millions of homes gas-free”. A new sort of battery that uses just salt and water has been invented that promises to revolutionise our dependence on fossil fuels.

It does this by smoothing and extending the ups and downs of energy availability and production from alternative sources such as wind and solar. The creatives have it.

New Zealand is thousands of kilometres from our nearest neighbour, of necessity we have a long history of independent thought and a creative can do attitude. Not so anymore, we have a highly prescriptive education system that can stifle creative thought. This has also ensured that we are forgetting key milestones from our past, a sure recipe to limit individual potential.

A few years ago I spent a fruitful and exciting year teaching in a school designed to help young, mostly rebellious children who had previously dropped out of school. The standard entry tests of aptitude revealed dismal levels of achievement in English and Maths.

The school directors advised me to teach English using Wreckit Ralph cartoons and spoon-fed answers. I decided to teach Romeo and Juliet and creative writing (for which I was censored). I soon found out that my pupils had an educational history of suppression and rejection. We went through a process together of discovering their capacity to tell their story. The teaching style involved encouragement, praise, and validation.

The results were remarkable. I discovered I was teaching a group of creative nonconformists who had something very special to contribute to society. Their end of year grades were excellent.

The education department became concerned and audited their work. The auditor wrote back that he would die to have students like these and raised their marks further. The irony is that the auditor worked within the same system that had rejected them earlier.

I was feeling used!
All they see is the entrance and exit sign
Plastered on my body like I’m nothing
They don’t care about me
They walk all over my feelings
Foreign words they engrave into my skin
They look right through me
I touch hands with many people
But still no one sees me for what I am
I feel a connection
But all I am to them is an easy way to their destination
I’m just a door you’re passing through

—Cinta

Our government is a one size fits all organisation. Forcing people to conform has become an obsession. They are promoting a generation whose capacity to understand science as simultaneously an open, rational, empirical, and creative process is becoming truncated.

Our education system has taken on the character of a Dickensian schoolroom where brains are viewed as a row of empty pots to be filled by a limited set of prescriptive facts. History is full of creative aha moments, but they do not arise in a restricted environment.

Curricula aim to encourage critical and creative thinking, but do they work in practice? A child at play may feel as though they make real choices, but has the parent only set out a very limited set of toys? If there are few open questions, there will be few open minds.

The pandemic appears to have accelerated intolerance of open debate and created a myopic view of contrary data. If it was just a question of adjusting our educational outlook, it might be tackled through the process of national debate, but pandemic conformity has a frightening international dimension.

Our government has ended up in the position of a petty bureaucrat, obsequious to those it considers among its betters and dismissive and oppressive to those who fall under it. Have we become uncritically subservient to the financial interests of foreign billionaires, global powers, and pharmaceutical companies?

At a point when our global network of communication was becoming a means of trade, education, equality, and political participation, its scope and access has been diminished and censored. New Zealand has replaced this with a ‘government should be your one source of truth’ ideology, something that is worthy of tyranny but not democracy. Stalin, Hitler, and Mao all controlled information ruthlessly.

The controlling outlook is not a stable basis for a system of government. Inherently we are a diversified and creative people. We aspire to freedom. We aim for the stars. A wise leader knows that, as Robert Frost said, “some things have to be left to God”. Government has to facilitate debate, not repress it.

Modelling Studies Can Plumb the Depths of Both Idiocy and Deception

0

We are fools for listening uncritically and can only blame ourselves

Business magazine Forbes has published a story with the arresting headline:

Unvaccinated People Increase Risk Of Covid Infection Among Vaccinated, Study Finds”.

The work they are referring to is not in the normal sense a study but is actually a modelling exercise published by the journal of the Canadian Medical Association.

Did the Forbes staff writer read the paper very well? I am quite sure they didn’t. At the end of paragraph one of the Method section of the original paper, it describes their model saying:

A vaccine that is 80% efficacious would result in 80% of vaccinated people becoming immune, with the remaining 20% being susceptible to infection. We did not model waning immunity.”

Now I am sure you know that the mRNA vaccines do not stop infection and also wane in effectiveness. In other words, mRNA vaccination does not confer immunity and its effectiveness does not remain constant as the paper assumes. So what use is this paper and to what do its conclusions apply? Apparently not to the mRNA Covid vaccines.

Conflicts of Interest are at Work

Lo and behold, one of the paper’s authors, David Fisman, declares competing interests:

He has served on advisory boards related to SARS-CoV-2 vaccines for Seqirus, Pfizer, AstraZeneca, and Sanofi-Pasteur Vaccines.…”

Another author, Ashleigh Tuite, was employed by the Public Health Agency of Canada when the research was conducted (aka the domain of Justin Trudeau).

So why would Forbes publicise this story which prima facie has little relevance to the real world data of the current pandemic?

Forbes magazine is 51% owned by a Hong Kong based company Integrated Whale Investments about which little is known. The Washington Post has suggested that Forbes editorial policy has been influenced as a result, but by whom no one really knows.

At this point in the pandemic, it has become clear that boosted individuals are becoming more vulnerable to Omicron than the unvaccinated. So I can only suggest that it might be advantageous for some scientists and politicians to blame the unvaccinated for everything in order to cover up their own mistaken ideas. Or perhaps there are commercial interests anxious to sell more arguably useless vaccines for billions of dollars. You decide.

The Unwitting Public are the Victims Here

If the government and their compliant media friends are our one source of truth, as has happened in New Zealand (by decree), then you have no option except to blame the unvaccinated whatever happens.

For our government, it is quite useful to be able to quote a study (???) that affirms just that, even if it is irrelevant and unrelated to the real world we are living in.

The actual New Zealand situation is quite different, the unvaccinated were less likely to be hospitalised than the boosted. Thank you to Grant Dixon for compiling and graphing New Zealand Ministry of Health data, below.

Carefully Masked From Reality

This morning my mask exempt friend entered a haberdashery shop, whereupon two other potential customers turned and fled. Yesterday she was turned away from a fabric store. I am sure many of you have had similar experiences.

The fact of the matter is that almost the whole of the New Zealand population has become subject to fear-based government-sponsored group-think.

Are we all being conditioned to vote for Jacinda Ardern in next year’s election based on the carefully constructed myth that she is keeping us all safe?

We should be keeping our feet on the ground. We should recognise that public relations experts and propaganda promoters are at work full time, but they are working out of touch with reality.

Is it the Economy?

Meanwhile our whole economy is becoming more and more dysfunctional. As people are too afraid to associate with one another in public, the whole basis of commercial activity is being undermined.

The two large supermarket chains are laughing all the way to the bank. As small businesses are forced to close and their monopoly grows, supermarket prices and profits are entering the stratosphere.

Smart individuals are now ordering their vegetables and groceries direct from Australia (as far away from us as Moscow is from London) because they are so much cheaper.

This week in the UK the government was forced to intervene to control prices as the cost of tomatoes (mostly imported) rose from NZ$1.10 to $1.80 per kilo. The public were outraged and made their disapproval known in no uncertain terms, forcing the government to act.

Here in New Zealand (where tomatoes are easily grown), Countdown is charging at this minute, as I write, on its website from $6 to $16 per kilo for tomatoes.

The government is clueless to control this rampant price gouging, as it is clueless about most things including the pandemic. The public is equally hoodwinked, we are queueing up fully masked and fully vaccinated to pay through the nose for everyday items without so much as a squeak of dissent.

The ten year old son of a friend asked his mother the other day “Which do you think our society is more like—Brave New World or 1984?” I doubt either Aldous Huxley or George Orwell could ever have imagined anything so incomprehensibly doublethink as 2022 New Zealand.

This is the state we have reached through our government’s careful rationing of information and saturation conditioning.

Time we reopened the flood gates of free speech and social media—hold your horses, we might endanger our one source of truth.

New Regulations Seek to Control the Sovereign World of Plants

Given the plethora of wannabe world rulers among the mega corporations, industrial and military powers, political ideologies, media and social media giants, big pharma, intergovernmental and judicial organisations currently competing for global influence, it is worth asking who actually rules the world? Who has the most power?

Undoubtedly the plant kingdom excels. Every individual in the world, in every nation, eats to live each day. Plants have enjoyed a coevolutionary symbiotic relationship with multicellular animal species for at least 500 million years. We have land and aquatic plants to thank for the oxygen we breathe.

Plants derive their timeless world sovereignty directly and continuously from the sun, the earth, and water. Ancient cultures have always revered and employed the life supporting properties of plants.

The ancient Rig Veda refers to them as ‘mothers of mankind’. Maori tradition as children of Tāne, the god of the forest, who separated earth and sky.

Our health and food security is inextricably tied up with that of the plant kingdom. We should make it a priority to protect the integrity of the plant world. We should seek to maintain an alliance with plants, not just in a metaphorical sense but in actuality use our knowledge and influence to sustain their sovereignty and protect their evolutionary genetic structures which underpin our own health.

Is the Sovereignty of Plants a Credible Global Political Agenda?

Respect for the sovereignty of plants dictates actions that can protect our world. Plants transcend national boundaries, their cultivation and use can unify the interests of diverse peoples. Within this concept lies the solution to many of the world’s problems:

Climate — Pollution — Hunger — Peace — Disease

The plants form an army that can defeat all these scourges of modern life.

The Materia Medica of Ayurveda, the ancient health system of India, records 5000 medicinal plants including the methods of their collection, use, and combination. Abbess Hildegard of Bingen enumerated multiple uses of herbs in the 12th century. These are just the tip of the iceberg, there are nearly 400,000 known species of plants.

Aside from food and medicine, throughout history they have been used to make furniture, cutlery and crockery, dwellings, transport, clothing, energy, and much more. All of this can be accomplished without causing pollution.

The Political Agenda of the Sovereign World of Plants:

  • Outlawing experimentation on the genetics of plants and animals
  • Rediscovering and valuing non-polluting skills that utilise plants and trees
  • Reviving the traditional herbal healing methods known by multiple cultures
  • Organic agriculture free of chemicals which exhaust the soil and kill bees
  • Teaching sustainable practices for gardening, horticulture, and agriculture
  • Managing climate change through planting and preservation
  • Improving food supply by increasing the use of plants in diets
  • International sharing and celebration of the wonders of plants
  • Outlawing patents on any genetic sequences derived from plants

Unlike political institutions, the capacity of plants to solve problems cannot be corrupted by power. Yet in our modern life, we have lost the sense of respect, utility, and thanks that plants deserve. We have forgotten the healing properties of plants and many of their other uses. Along with the families of animals, fish, and birds we have began to view them as something to exploit.

Control of the World’s Food Supply is the Ultimate Financial Prize

For the hungry mega corporations, wresting control of our food supply from nature is a mouth watering prospect. It appears to offer an assured source of income and profit stretching into the future. Concern for the consequences of commercial plant production and exploitation is notable by its absence.

Since the patenting of plants is outlawed by international patent law, particularly pharmaceutical and biotech companies have sought to usurp the sovereignty of plants by registering patents over key components of their genetic structures or by slightly altering and thus maiming their structure using genetic manipulation, and then patenting the resulting GM types.

Simultaneously commercial interests are seeking to restrict the use of medicinal herbs by promoting draconian regulation. Andrew Little, the New Zealand Minister of Health, has announced he will be introducing legislation later this year to control the availability of natural products. This will be the third attempt by the Labour Party to do so, two previous attempts were abandoned due to public opposition.

The International Coalition of Medicines Regulatory Authorities (ICMRA), of which Medsafe is a member, has a register of hundreds of traditional herbs and plants whose use it wishes to restrict whilst simultaneously approving over 3,000 synthetic or chemical copies. NZ plans to adopt their register.

9 ways ICMRA Members are Affecting Regulations Around the World

1. Herbs, Natural Health Products, and Traditional Medicines are being assessed as pharmaceuticals with a plan to establish regulations mandating standardised dosages of extracted or synthesised ‘active’ ingredients.

2. Database information is being shared between regulators from different countries which restricts herbs using the ‘Rule of Doubt’—absence of modern scientific information is sufficient to implement a ban despite a long term history of traditional safe use.

3. Herbs, vitamins, and remedies are then classified as medicines only available to be used by registered doctors. This grants medical authorities back door “patents” on indigenous plants that will have a global reach within all member countries without having to invoke patent law. Already hundreds of Ayurvedic, Chinese, and other traditional herbs have been stolen in this way, despite the fact that international law forbids the patenting of plants.

4. A bogus argument has been advanced that plants grown in soil are not standardised like pharmaceutical drugs and may vary slightly in composition. The supposed remedy is the production of synthetic copies of herbs and active ingredients in laboratories. They are approved for food and drink using the discredited principle of ‘Substantial Equivalence’ which allows manufacturers to adulterate traditional remedies and produce cheap ineffective copies without labelling—a process that is accelerating rapidly.

5. Many thousands of additives, preservatives, colourings, fragrances, and processing agents are being approved. In many cases, these substances have been implicated as causal factors in cancer, ADHD, and many other chronic illnesses.

6. Enforcement of Randomised Controlled Trial (RCT) testing and industrial manufacturing standards, sufficiently costly to bankrupt small and medium sized companies, which will gift competitive advantage to global companies.

7. Compulsory proprietary information collection on Natural Health Products and traditional herbs which will inevitably be shared with pharmaceutical companies through revolving doors and cosy relationships allowing the commercial appropriation of traditional knowledge.

8. The new standards being proposed are setting the maximum daily dose of nutritional supplements equal to the minimum proven therapeutic dose. For example studies show that the minimum effective dose of vitamin B12 is 50mcg which is being set as the maximum dose allowed in supplements. This means that retail B12 supplements will be ineffective in treating B12 deficiencies. Only a medical doctor will be permitted to prescribe the larger effective doses. Retail supplements produced by natural health companies with restricted doses will fall into disuse, in favour of synthetics sold by pharmaceutical and nutraceutical giants as prescribed medicines.

9. Regulatory-style laws hand control of natural medicine regulation to ICMRA rather than national governments. This subverts national sovereignty, undermines indigenous knowledge, and takes the right to choose natural medical treatment away from people everywhere.

New Global Regulation Threatens Alternative Approaches to Health Just When Science is Verifying Their Effectiveness

Modern research has shown that development and treatment of disease is affected by a great number of individual factors including: digestion, diet, genetics, lifestyle, environment, climate, psychology, relationships, fatigue, stress, comorbidities, age, and gender.

Traditional medicine offers a range of individualised approaches to healthcare that take account of these wide range of factors. Traditional and functional medicine involve the care of a skilled and knowledgeable physician to prevent ill health and restore good health by strengthening physiological processes, digestion, and re-establishing balance.

In Contrast Modern Medicine is in Crisis

  • Antibiotic and anti-fungal resistance threatens to render routine operations life-threatening by 2050.
  • Healthcare costs and chronic disease incidence are increasing so rapidly, that healthcare is being rationed in many countries.
  • More than 50% of the population now suffer from chronic diseases.
  • Adverse reactions to prescription drugs are now the third leading cause of death.
  • New diseases are emerging and old diseases re-emerging.

The List of Planned Restrictions is Surprisingly Wide

The shopping list of those planning to cut off our access to traditional remedies is very long and largely incomprehensible until you realise that there are commercial companies seeking to control their supply and secure the profits that can be made via monopoly control based on over regulation.

Even common kitchen herbs and spices have not escaped the notice of regulators taking inexplicable decisions to suit commercial interests.

More than 50% of the public have been using their own money to buy natural health products. This supports individual health and reduces the financial burden of public healthcare.

This advantage will be lost if the new restrictions are introduced, leaving the public without medical choice and governments in the hands of international pharmaceutical monopolies.

New scientific findings are coming to light that plant genetics plays a role in supporting health which cannot be provided by synthetic production. Genetic information in plants is the missing element in our understanding of nutrition. Therefore the proposals to regulate, restrict, and exploit plants in every country pose a threat to the sources of our human genetic stability.

We have shared our long journey of evolution with plants. The present time of global crisis is not the time to forget or destroy our long-time supporters who are silently offering us a life line in troubled times, as they have throughout past ages.

How to Navigate the New Subnormal—substituting Misdirection for Information

0

There is a lot of self-help advice on offer in the pandemic, much of it useful and uplifting:

  • Improving our diet and exercise routines.
  • Searching for new directions and opportunities.
  • Connecting with like-minded people

And then there is the other side of the coin—should we be meekly accepting new restrictions or seeking new freedoms?

Masking the Truth

Articles like the one in the autumn 2022 AA Directions magazine, advising masks are going to be part of our day-to-day lives for the foreseeable future, and teaching us how to recognise whether someone is smiling behind their mask, miss the point. Rather ask: Why are we wearing masks?

Today in Stuff, science columnist Dr Siouxsie Wiles finally gets around to admitting that “you can’t rely on mRNA vaccines”. Her answer: become more strict about mask wearing. Is that possible? As I walked around Wellington shops yesterday, I didn’t see a single unmasked person.

Dr. Wiles, a British microbiologist who received the 2021 New Zealander of the Year Award for pandemic science communication, cites a new study which she says supports continuing use of masks at gatherings. Click on the link (most people don’t) and you arrive at a study that involves theoretical modelling rather than verified effects.

Link to article: Multi-scale modelling reveals that early super-spreader events are a likely contributor to novel variant predominance

Mask studies (of which there are many) have not demonstrated large reductions in Covid transmission. They tend to be very technical in nature and focus on the comparative viral loads found in nasal and mask swabs. These measurements can only be connected to Covid transmission via theoretical modelling whose predictions are speculative and unproven.

Back in the real world, note the near universal combination of vaccination and mask wearing to date in New Zealand, which has not stopped Omicron transmission.

A study published in ClinMed entitled Adverse Effects of Prolonged Mask Use among Healthcare Professionals during COVID-19’ surveyed 343 healthcare professionals in New York City hospitals obliged to wear masks throughout most of their working day.

They reported: Headaches (71%), skin breakdown (50%), and impaired cognition (24%). Yes, you did read that right, one quarter of medical professionals wearing masks suffer decreased intellectual capacity.

one quarter of medical professionals wearing masks suffer decreased intellectual capacity

The ClinMed study cited is just one of many. The adverse effects of mask wearing result from a combination of a number of possible factors:

  • Increased harmful bacteria concentrations in the respiratory tract and around the face
  • Increased CO2 content in our lungs, which leads to lower oxygenation of our blood and brain, and can lead to hyperventilation.
  • Decreased social learning, communication, and development of children
  • Polypropylene shedding of micro particles, which have only recently been discovered lodged deep in human lung tissue
  • Allergic reactions to the formaldehyde content of masks (formaldehyde is a known carcinogen).

Even costly N95 masks do not stop the passage of air around the mask fitting, essentially negating their purpose. Prompting the observation it is like trying to stop mosquitos with chicken wire. Surgical masks or their equivalent are mainly required in hospitals and dirty environments like saw mills or building sites to protect the wearer from inhaling human tissue or large particulates.

So will Dr. Wiles advise us next week to wear a full deep sea diving suit? In the crazy world of the new subnormal apparently nothing absurd can be ruled out.

Hiding the Truth From the Public Has Become a Medical Imperative

There is a certain hysteria surrounding the realisation that mRNA vaccines don’t actually work and may be harmful. When my kids were growing up we used to read an amusing book to them, Lies My Mother Told Me. How many lies have we been told? Too many.

The Pfizer mRNA vaccine is:

  • 95% effective
  • Completely safe
  • Mostly stays in the upper arm muscle, as most traditional vaccines do

This last is interesting because Pfizer did know before they released the mRNA vaccine, that it didn’t stay in the upper arm.

They had completed a pre-clinical bio-distribution animal study which suggested that most of the mRNA vaccine spread throughout the body instead of staying at the injection site. The lipid nanoparticles (LNP), which encase the mRNA and help to breach cell walls, are actually highly mobile and ensure that the mRNA spreads rapidly to all the organ systems in the body.

If you want the full story see the following article by clinical immunologist Dr. Byram Bridle.

Link to article: A Moratorium on mRNA ‘Vaccines’ is Needed

If we had known this, we would have realised early on that adverse reactions like:

  • liver and kidney damage
  • strokes
  • cardiac events
  • neurological conditions
  • and sudden onset cancers

were not unrelated to vaccination as many victims were assured at the time by the Ministry of Health, GPs, and hospital staff.

Medical professionals assessing the causal connections between mRNA vaccination and subsequent adverse events were simply relying upon their prior knowledge about traditional vaccines.

They thought they knew that vaccine ingredients mostly stayed at the injection site and eventually appeared in lymph nodes as they were cleaned up by the immune system.

Pfizer neglected to tell them this was not the case. In fact, Pfizer didn’t seem to inform anybody, the damning data was hidden in an obscure study buried in the requirements of the various national regulatory processes supposedly scrutinising safety.

Was our Medsafe informed? If they were, they didn’t notice.

Anyone sounding the alarm seemed to be cancelled by the media and relegated to the ranks of conspiracy theorists.

Now we have some hard New Zealand data showing that the protective effect of mRNA vaccination is actually a myth, there appears to be a rush on the part of seasoned and highly decorated Covid science communicators like Dr. Siouxsie Wiles, member of the NZ Order of Merit, to rush and throw us a life line.

We may not actually choose to be saved. We might instead get on with our own lives and make the best of what opportunities we can discover for ourselves. At least we will be rowing our own boat, not sinking in the good ship misinformation.

Only Individuals Desperate for Income or Close to Death Agreed to Participate in Drug Trials

We used to think that only individuals desperate for income or close to death agreed to participate in drug trials. Unbelievably we have come to associate virtue with unthinking participation in medical experiments. A few people have acquired a taste for wielding authority, but you don’t have to surrender your freedom of medical choice.
