(Leo Hohmann continues) ... Meanwhile, the real reason for locking people down, telling them they must stop traveling for non-essential trips, shuttering small businesses, or bogging them down with irrational and arbitrary rules, goes unreported by the mainstream media. But it’s hiding in plain view for anyone with an ounce of curiosity.

The global power brokers at the United Nations, World Economic Forum, the British royal family, the International Monetary Fund, and the Vatican have told us why COVID must be kept front and center in the human psyche for the foreseeable future: they’ve all identified it as the key to launching a “Great Reset“ of the global economic and social order. ...

They want to do away with the post-World War II, free-market capitalist system and replace it with a global technocratic surveillance state likely to include a new digital currency and digital ID system. This new system will be much more authoritarian than what Americans would choose to live under if we remained in normal times, so the technocrats had to create a “new normal” that grips people in fear. People are known to defer to their leaders in times of crisis and panic. They can be convinced to go along with almost anything in such times, when fear brings its twin cousins of chaos and confusion.

COVID was simply a prop, a triggering mechanism, for what global elites refer to as the Great Reset, the New Economy, the Green Economy and Sustainable Development. Whatever they call it, those with discernment will recognize this as the end-times beast system, global in nature, which will seek to dominate every human life on the planet.

The re-election of Donald Trump can forestall the world’s march into this new Dark Age, where freedom of movement, assembly, speech and religion are all tightly monitored and controlled. Joe Biden will welcome it, as this was the path his former boss Barack Obama had set us on. Obama signed the UN 2030 Agenda in September 2015 and the UN’s New Urban Agenda for global cities, as well as the Strong Cities Network, which is the UN’s effort to globalize city and county police forces. He also signed on to the UN’s Paris Climate accords.

Global government will materialize. It’s only a matter of when. The Bible says the end times will be marked by the rise of an anti-Christ system that bullies and bludgeons its way to power over all humanity. The United Nations arrogantly affirms the biblical prophecies with its admonition that “no person will be left behind” by its 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

As Christians, we must prepare both physically and spiritually for persecution that will only grow more intense in the weeks, months and years ahead. We must resist ungodly government edicts that seek to silence our voice, shut down our religious practice, and deprive us of our humanity.

The fourth lie is that a mask will keep you from getting the coronavirus. The CDC says that 85% of people who wear a mask most or all of the time get the corona virus anyway.

“So let’s look at the three biggest lies that are still being used to spread fear of COVID-19, ...

1. COVID carries a very high, 3.4 percent, death rate [compared to a flu death rate of 0.10 percent]. This has now been debunked by none other than the United Nations World Health Organization, ... The WHO came out with updated mortality rates this week showing that only 0.13 percent of those infected will die. ... This 0.13 percent death rate is almost exactly the death rate for the common flu.”

There have been approximately 8,000,000 cases in America, total. A vast number of those are now fine.

Approximately 200,000 dead.

That is pretty close to the original estimate. Lower, but in the ballpark.

Just saying.

You would think people would welcome news that would ease — even a little — the paralyzing increasingly irrational fear that they have carried and have inflicted on so many others ... but, no. I’ve concluded that many, many American women and former American “men” sadistically enjoy living in fear for reasons I just don’t understand.

4. They said it is extremely contagious.

There have been 38 million confirmed cases worldwide so far. That is 0.55% of the world’s population.

There might be several million more cases that haven’t been confirmed.
But that would mean the death rate is even lower.

I’m a 70-year old male with no underlying conditions other than being just a tad overweight. I was already on a pretty strong regimen of vitamin C and D before contracting it.
I used Tylenol Quercetin and zinc along with DripDrop hydration powder. It wasn’t the most pleasant of two weeks, but I beat it and have now moved on in life.

This. #EugenicistGates will use a #DigitalMarker to supposedly , track the virus. #666 ring a bell? It will change your DNA. Watch this Gate’s video: https://youtu.be/ksEVaO806Oo

I refuse any vaccine & that includes literally all vaccines no matter their origin.

What it all comes down to is what I just posted on another thread:

When will Americans finally realize that Liberals derive almost all of their power by scaring Americans to death about something Liberals say only Liberals can save them from?

For example: the past year or so.

As an addendum, over the past couple of days, Jake Tapper has got tough on Joe Biden, while Wolf Blitzer has taken on Nancy Pelosi.

When CNN starts distancing itself from Democrats, you know something big is coming down.

” 0.13 percent of those infected will die”

And the Covid death figures at least in the US have been inflated, so the percent is probably lower.

Calling people asymptomatic with a low viral load is something of a lie.

Testing for the normal winter flu strains is usually done by magnifying 3 times. You can detect the presence of a flu strain that makes people sick with 3x magnification. They are using 5x-6x magnification for Covid 19. So basically, they are testing for tiny trace amounts of the virus that can’t make you sick or make you experience symptoms.

To really call someone “asymptomatic”, they would have to have a viral load that typically makes peolpe sick. But in this case, these 6-time magnifications are finding people with tiny trace amounts of Covid 19 virus in their systems.

It is not asymptomatic so much as, they don’t really have the disease.

COVID carries a very high, 3.4 percent, death rate [compared to a flu death rate of 0.10 percent]. This has now been debunked by none other than the United Nations World Health Organization, ... The WHO came out with updated mortality rates this week showing that only 0.13 percent of those infected will die. ... This 0.13 percent death rate is almost exactly the death rate for the common flu.

Actually to be accurate you need to specify which death rate is being referred to. From https://ourworldindata.org/mortality-risk-covid:

In the media, it is often the “case fatality rate” that is talked about when the risk of death from COVID-19 is discussed.1 This measure is sometimes called case fatality risk or case fatality ratio, or CFR. But this is not the same as the risk of death for an infected person – even though, unfortunately, journalists often suggest that it is. It is relevant and important, but far from the whole story. The CFR is very easy to calculate. You take the number of people who have died, and you divide it by the total number of people diagnosed with the disease. So if 10 people have died, and 100 people have been diagnosed with the disease, the CFR is [10 / 100], or 10%. But it’s important to note that it is the ratio between the number of confirmed deaths from the disease and the number of confirmed cases, not total cases....

For instance, more than 10% of people with a cardiovascular disease, and who were diagnosed with COVID-19, died. Diabetes, chronic respiratory diseases, hypertension, and cancer were all risk factors as well, as we see in the chart. By comparison, the CFR was 0.9% – more than ten times lower – for those without a preexisting health condition.

The crude mortality rate The “crude mortality rate” is another very simple measure, which like the CFR gives something that might sound like the answer to the question that we asked earlier: if someone is infected, how likely are they to die? But, just as with CFR, it is actually very different. The crude mortality rate – sometimes called the crude death rate – measures the probability that any individual in the population will die from the disease; not just those who are infected, or are confirmed as being infected. It’s calculated by dividing the number of deaths from the disease by the total population. For instance, if there were 10 deaths in a population of 1,000, the crude mortality rate would be [10 / 1,000], or 1%, even if only 100 people had been diagnosed with the disease. This difference is important: unfortunately, people sometimes confuse case fatality rates with crude death rates. A common example is the Spanish flu pandemic in 1918. One estimate, by Johnson and Mueller (2002), is that that pandemic killed 50 million people.2 That would have been 2.7% of the world population at the time. This means the crude mortality rate was 2.7%. But 2.7% is often misreported as the case fatality rate – which is wrong, because not everyone in the world was infected with Spanish flu. If the crude mortality rate really was 2.7%, then the case fatality rate was much higher

Disease Estimated case fatality rate (CFR)
SARS-CoV 10%
Venkatesh and Memish (‎2004)‎
Munster et al. (2020)
MERS-CoV 34%
Munster et al. (2020)
Seasonal flu (US) 0.1 to 0.2%
US CDC
Ebola 50%
40% in the 2013-16 outbreak

WHO (2020)
Shultz et al. (2016)

What we want to know isn’t the case fatality rate: it’s the infection fatality rate...The IFR is the number of deaths from a disease divided by the total number of cases. If 10 people die of the disease, and 500 actually have it, then the IFR is [10 / 500], or 2%.3,4,5,6,7 To work out the IFR, we need two numbers: the total number of cases and the total number of deaths. -https://ourworldindata.org/mortality-risk-covid?country=~USA

Now from https://www.forbes.com/sites/brucelee/2020/09/26/what-is-the-death-rate-for-covid-19-coronavirus-what-this-study-found/#3bde630a5c46

For the overall non-institutionalized population in Indiana, the IFR came out to be 0.26 percent. In other words, for every 1000 people in the community who had gotten infected, an estimated 2.6 ended up dying. The average age at death was 76.9 years...The overall IFR from this Indiana study was a little lower than the 0.5 to 1 percent range reported by the World Health Organization (WHO), based on other studies.

And from https://medium.com/microbial-instincts/clarifying-the-true-fatality-rate-of-covid-19-same-as-the-flu-8148e38b9ab5 by Shin Jie Yong Sep 8 · 7

a person is more likely to become a case (symptomatic) when infected with SARS-CoV-2 than with the influenza virus. The main reason is that SARS-CoV-2 is a novel virus in which little preexisting immunity exists, so a lot more infected people will get sick.

Even if the IFRs of SARS-CoV-2 and influenza might be the same, as some data may suggest, SARS-CoV-2 is more contagious with a basic reproductive number (R-naught) of 2.5. This means an infected person can pass the virus to two people or so, resulting in 2000+ infections after ten rounds of transmissions. The flu, by contrast, has an R-naught of 1.3, which equates to 56 infections after ten rounds.

The fact that Covid-19 kills more than flu is quickly evident by “the number of deaths that exceed what is seen in typical years.” Overall, a higher transmission rate leads to more infections and then more cases and, eventually, more deaths. The fact that Covid-19 kills more than flu is quickly evident by “the number of deaths that exceed what is seen in typical years,” the academic journal Nature reported in September. In other words, deaths from Covid-19 are not deaths that ‘would happen anyway’.

The CDC has changed the IFR values of Covid-19 into age-specific estimates, which are now very low at 0.003% for 0–19 years, 0.02% for 20–49 years, 0.5% for 50–69 years, and 5.4% for 70+ years.

But there seems to be no data on age-specific IFR of the seasonal flu. The WHO only stated that “the infection mortality rate (the number of reported deaths divided by the number of infections) will be lower. For seasonal influenza, mortality is usually well below 0.1%.” How much below 0.1% is unclear. Admittedly, comparing mortality rates between Covid-19 and the seasonal flu may lead to nowhere. Perhaps we should look at other metrics instead, such as R-naught and excess deaths.

The estimated IFR for people in their 70s is 11 times the rate for 50-to-69-year-olds, 270 times the rate for 20-to-49-year-olds, and 1,800 times the rate for people younger than 20. In the latter two groups, the estimated IFR is lower than the overall IFR for the seasonal flu.
