It’s everywhere … but don’t panic, boosters are at hand …
One really couldn’t make it up! It’s not even a week since the discovery of that covid ‘variant of concern’, first called ‘Nu’ and then ‘Omicron’ by the WHO, was sprung on an unsuspecting world. It’s not even a week since our PM, then Mr Biden, then the rest of the Western politicians, fell into utter panic-mode, closing down entry from southern African countries, imposing new mask mandates and demanding booster jabs for everybody. Never mind that even the Big Pharma spokespeople said that they couldn’t guarantee their stuff would ‘protect’ people from catching the new, scare variant. People must be jabbed, and so people are rushing to get that jab.
And now this: Joe Biden tells the world that “This variant is a cause for concern, not a cause for panic, […] If people are vaccinated and wear their mask, there’s no need for lockdowns.” (paywalled link, also: link, paywalled)). Blimey! Will those travel restrictions be lifted – they are, after all, racist, aren’t they! – or will the international covid governments use this ever so welcome panic, created by themselves, to keep their boots firmly on our faces, with mask mandates everywhere and covid vax ‘certificates’ to be shown everywhere?
Johnson told the press that his covid government is pondering if ‘fully vaccinated’ should mean having had three jabs to be permitted to participate in what remains of our social lives (link). And just like that, with that question having been asked by willing covid journalists, with that answer having been published in the willing covid MSM, the presumption that everybody needs a vaccine passport has silently been accepted. Yes – let that sink in: vax passports have suddenly been made acceptable.
Daily test certificates could become a substitute. It’s all based on the ‘precautionary principle’ because you could harbour Omicron without knowing, even when jabbed. Weren’t all those travellers from SA who ‘had Omicron’ double-jabbed? Ms Sturgeon meanwhile told her nation that Scots ought to test themselves every time when meeting ‘someone from another household’ and that the tests should be made free (paywalled link). ‘Tis only NHS money, only paid for by the English, after all.
Well, this Omicron panic, grabbed by Johnson, is working: Brits are now ‘scrambling’ to get that booster jab in an unprecedented act of preemptive obedience – to ‘save Christmas’ (link, paywalled). This rush is driven by ‘reports from the frontline’, of how the NHS is also ‘scrambling’ to fulfil all those jab-wishes, as if we were facing another life-or-death situation (link).
The MSM are of course desperate to keep the panic going. The DM published one article under a screaming headline that there are now 330 more covid patients in hospital in one SA province (link), ‘conceding’ further down in that report that they don’t know if these are all Omicron patients and that, moreover, these hospitalisations are ‘covid-related’. Of course we’re not told what that means!
At the same time and on the same DM home page there’s an article by Dr Coetze, the chair of the SA Medical Association. She writes: “No one here in South Africa is known to have been hospitalised with the Omicron variant, nor is anyone here believed to have fallen seriously ill with it.” (link) and that the western panic is uncalled for.
We do know though, do we not, why the covid governments panicked everywhere! This was the welcome trigger to herd everybody into getting that 3rd jab. It’s no good for a Times opinion writer to claim that Omicron is ‘serious’ but ‘we shouldn’t have overreacted’ (link, paywalled). The truly dreadful point is that the whole western world is again haring down the road of jabs and more jabs even when they don’t really protect and when the side effects are so considerable. It’s no use for government and MSM and Big Pharma to try and brush these aside as ‘anecdotal’. More and more people are aware of them.
Again, the covid emperors everywhere simply never mention that covid can be treated and has been treated successfully with cheap drugs available off-patent, available for every doctor to prescribe. It’s as if we were told we need monthly booster jabs against the flu but weren’t permitted to stay in bed, glugging down Lemsip. It’s as if we were told to wait, to become so ill that we’d have to go to hospital, before doctors would treat us there with ever more expensive drugs. It’s as if common sense and hundreds of years of experience with treating colds, sniffles and the flu needed to be thrown out of the window because only the latest, most expensive drugs would help, as if any ordinary medicine, tried and tested for more than 100 years, were useless in this modern, hi-tech world.
There was another, brief covid scare report in The Times, on a study in the USA showing that ‘1 in 100’ covid patients develop ‘brain complications’, e.g. strokes or encephalitis (link, paywalled). In that same report we’re told that the ONS found in a study on ‘Long Covid’ that 30% of those sufferers had difficulties concentrating.
For some reason there haven’t been studies on how covid and covid hospitalisation might have long-term effects on covid patients’ minds and intellectual capabilities. Perhaps nobody dares to study this because it might show that the PM is suffering with “Long Mental Covid”. Perhaps we need another ‘Peppa Pig’ speech to prove it …
People can easily obtain exemption cards online. The NHS and self-serving GPs will not supply them and one is not required to get medical authorisation to hold one. Having obtained one it then does not have to be shown and no-one can demand to see your exemption card or ask you why you are exempt. It should be sufficient to say “I am exempt”. That is how the ‘law’ stands in this country at the moment and has done throughout this power grab. This is open advice in the public domain and on the Government website.
Everyone is legally entitled to claim exemption if they have physical reasons why they cannot wear a face mask or if they would be psychologically distressed.
Thanks Kim. I just got an exempt lanyard online. Not a card. since I do not have to show a card the lanyard is sufficient.
Why do we not all just call it the MORONIC variant specialed labeled for MORONS.
Actually after I’ve had a goodightssleep, I would prefer ‘ SCIENTIFIC ‘ ….
Change has been accelerating for some time but the rate is now a jerk. It makes me think of a jet breaking the sound barrier. We can continue living in the past but it will no longer be the real world. Likewise talking of having any democratic control is no longer the real world. Talking of a healthy environment for you and yours is not the real world. Freedoms, liberty choice privacy gone or going. Of course you can close your front door and pretend, play music watch old videos, say hello to your neighbour, pretend.
To escape this you must drive changes for yourself. Turn your world around take away the hold on you. Start ‘prepping’ not just for survival, but like walking is not just for reaching ‘B’ but the exercise on the way. You must make change. That will be the only way you will have any ownership, because major change is coming whether you like it or not.
For me those changes will include never voting for a ‘political party’ ever again, growing my own food or getting into a group who can do that or supporting those who can do that. Finding alternatives in health education, people who want to open their eyes using cash and many more. Most important of all, question everything.
The light is within you not to found by looking for it within someone else or expecting someone else to do things for you. I don’t mean to preach that is how I see things now.
Thanks for that Kim, you have quite cheered me up, especially when I read your comment that exemption cards are still available and presumably legal.
I hadn’t realised my psychologicals had become so shot by the constant Covid government hammering they are getting.
Must include that news in my “Civil Disobedience” portfolio!
Only real trouble is summoning up the guts to cry it through without evidence of those of a similar mind around me and indeed in the face of loved ones who ” might prefer my absence to my unco-operative presence”
Presently I’m afraid that I fall into that category
From what I have seen or heard there are far more un-jabbed than is reported and I hope that the house of cards soon falls. The new book by Robert Kennedy should be the turning point, but will it? Fauci is still standing, but for how long?
A local pharmacy stocks ivermectin and doesn’t know why it is not prescribed. A local doctor told a friend of mine he was “not allowed” to prescribe ivermectin as he could be struck off. There you have it.
Is Johnson and his appalling excuse of a government going to get its long awaited cum uppance this coming Thursday at the Sidcup and Old Bexley by election. A Conservative held seat with a 19,000 majority being overturned, will surely signal that this country has had enough of his muppetry and consign Johnson’s idea of neo Conservatism to the dustbin of history, where it deservedly belongs. Here’s hoping…….
I do hope so Colin.
I think “sprung on an unsuspecting world” is a little hard, Viv. Many of us, yourself included I am sure, were very much expecting/predicting just this scenario.
There’s no need to panic, er, so long as you do as you are told. That’s what passes for freedom and democracy today. More words whose definition has been changed. Every time I hear that Covid has closed a school or that the unjabbed may cancel Christmas, I shriek inside: It’s people, not a microscopic life form or free-thinking citizens, who have done these things.
We now have an unelected, unaccountable, unchallengeable, self-appointed world government: Black Rock and Gates, asset managers and billionaires, using the UN and other compliant, third world-run agencies, as a fig-leaf. Everyone has their price and they are spending big. Gates has given almost $320m to media worldwide (Heaven only knows how much to politicians). Over $12m to the Guardian, to keep it alive and $3.5m to the Telegraph, which explains their stance.

Back in the days when a few on the left still had principles not dogma and agendas (Lammy as potential Foreign Secretary is surreal; satire become reality, God help us!), Tony Benn said there are the five questions to ask of any organisation.
Let’s ask those questions of Gates:
What Power Have You Got? Unlimited
Where Did You Get It From? Money
In Whose Interests Do You Exercise It? Mine
To Whom Are You Accountable? No one
How Can We Get Rid Of You? You can’t
As you rightly say the point we are rapidly approaching has been well signposted for those who wished to see.
No one here in South Africa is known to have been hospitalised with the Omicron Variant nor
is anyone believed to have fallen seriously ill with it.
Well done aDr Coetze chair of the South African Medical Associatiom
These words should ring out in every government portals and be acted upon by every government in the world as must the press ensure the peasants hear it too.
Mind you “sleeping Joe” does appear to have got wind of it and has been appalled, probably that the WHO under the control of the country that has a vested interest in their creation of Covid; CHINA went ahead without him..
After all he is not getting to be the head of the new world order.
“Brits are now ‘scrambling’ to get that booster jab.” Is that true I wonder or is it what TPTB want us to think.
People are waking up and the enemy are getting very rattled and dangerous. What will they do next to keep us quiet until we are caught firmly in their trap.
Visited my local butcher and Coop this morning without a mask without attracting any attention. 2 of the staff didn’t have masks either. I’d say. it was 50/50 regarding mask wearing which is very encouraging.
We should heed the observations of the BBC on peacefully changing the world ( if only more would withold their licence fee!!!!!!)
https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20190513-it-only-takes-35-of-people-to-change-the-world
I heard it was £200 fine if you were caught not wearing a mask in a shop, 2nd offence £400, 3rd offence £800 and so on
I wasn’t going to bother to wear a mask until I heard that on GB news Mark Steun in for Farage who was in the USA interviewing Trump
2 hr show on GB news tomorrow night.
I wonder if Nigel asked Trump if he was still maintaining the election was stolenI heard the other day the Leader of the Repunlicans had advised it was no longer an issue
Roger T : “I wasn’t going to bother to wear a mask until I heard that on GB news …”
It’s not my place to tell you what decision to make .
But being cowed by these threats is in effect giving in to terrorists.
It’s the thin end of the wedge too: today a threat of £200 fine for being unmuzzled on a train; tomorrow a threat of £5000 for not having a risky harmful jab which could paralyse or kill you, even if you don’t go out anywhere. Every time we allow ourselves to be intimidated,we embolden them and they proceed to worse outrages. Are we going to leave it until we literally have nothing left to lose before we make a stand? Till we have everything taken from us and we’re carted off to a camp?
You might also care to research what happened with the people who were fined in the early days of the Covid scam. You may find that many of these were not pursued; plus Big Brother Watch got all the early convictions quashed.
mary. Giving in to terrorists. Yes but isn’t it even more like what happened to the Jews in Nazi Germany?
And it is happening again in E.U. Germany.
Meanwhile the Global Warming Scam trundles along.
Since the Covid Scam hasn’t quite succeeded in destroying western ‘Democracy’ surely Carbon Neutral will.
I have come to a clear conclusion about Boris after considering his apparent absolute incompetence for some time:
He is a very dangerous individual following orders from the globalists and hiding his actions behind a veil of buffoonery.
Of course. If only voters had woken up to this before the election but they fall for the frauds again and again.
True, Mary. NOTA (in the absence of an independent or centre right challenger candidate) is not a wasted vote.
Yes, but we did have to “appear” to leave the EU ( even if it was in name only)
Actually the thing that most disappoints me is that we haven’t engaged the Commonwealth as a whole as a trading partner and in light of the news that now China is buying them up bang goes our chance to really stand alone as an independent powe block, the equal in trading power, if not of defence of the USA, which we should be doing as they becoming our mercenaries I.e. Their forces under our control.
Obama saw the danger of our standing alone, why do you think he urged us to stay in the EU. ( I remember writing a couple of articles for ID at the time of the referendum including similar Commonwealth Link up at the time)
If the US won’t mercenarieise us then try…………………Russia??
Oh India to take the place of China perhaps they could be encouraged to bring on the production of Ammonia fuel cars. – it’s out there we must be first on the bandwagon – the reason I say use India – they’ve still got coal
Roger
Don’t think China has a free trade agreement with Europe? Did Singapore or Hong Kong need trade agreements during their fastest years of growth? Of course not. Did the USA need trade agreements to become the world’s economic super power? No. Yes, trade agreements may have advantages of course but having products that people want to buy at the right price may be the key to prosperity.
I’m thinking of reviving a sort of “Commonwealth Preference ” but with meaning
Not just that they are ” supporting the Old Country”, but that they can see the sense of standing together in the face of aggressive powers that will ignore or gobble them up as China is presently doing.
And oh yes I am aware that many kith and kin Commonwealth lives were given willingly to aid the “mother” country and we do have a responsibility to right or at least acknowledge the wrong we did them by joining the Common Market.
( perhaps I’m too romantic”)
