COVID-19 conspiracy motherlode

Jimbob has linked to the source above. It's supposed to be in the future after ocean level rise and political turmoil, but the f.ckwit who came up with it couldn't be arsed to redraw the coastlines.

That's why Lake Chad and the Aral Sea are the size they are People built barriers around the world and put all the excess water in those places.

And despite the political upheavals, everyone nicely shared out the rock that they dug out to deepen Lake Chad to make all the coastlines exactly the same shape they used to be. It's a kludge, a pathetic excuse for the fact that he was too lazy to redraw them.

If you had to build dams around the world's coastline, you would need a lot of material, so it would be pretty deep.

Of course why the Low countries are using material from there is another question.

I was um... impressed by their laziness too

Naomi Wolf is f.cking full on conspiracy theorist now. Covid denier, Bill Gates/Apple is/are evil, vaccines are designed to download software into your body full blown gonzo nonsense.

The other one is well aware of this issue...

Assuming however they are genuine people and genuinely GPs, I wonder if there would be any mileage in filing a complaint to the GMC? I’ve asked them to email me a copy if they can fish it out recycling.

... anonymously, for reasons that will become clear...

From memory and a reply to her tweet

"If your Naomi be Klein
You be fine
If your Naomi be Wolf
You be Oooff"

keeping track of things with the following rhyme:

if the Naomi be Klein
you’re doing just fine
If the Naomi be Wolf
Oh, buddy. Ooooof.

(By the way, anyone know how to embed tweets?)

There's a serious problem with excess deaths in the under 64s at the moment.

The peak was far higher than in the older groups and it is not coming down as fast. The difference amounts to over 700 deaths in 60-64 yrs and 1000 in the under 60s.

This is not COVID (see next graph)

COVID deaths are tracking for every age group as a percentage of the Spring peak.

The excess death graph is calculated by taking each week of deaths, subtracting the number of deaths the week of the minimum in September and then taking the percentage compared with the Spring peak.

Yes



and look at the September minimum, which makes it even more "eccentric" than it seems:



Yes there's a bank holiday effect - unless she's not being clear in what she says. And sadly, I do think she believes what she writes.

And this is what every week since wk31, 1999 would look like (pink being excess according to that measure)

[bob sterman]

I can't quite work out what she is on about but with this...

There's a serious problem with excess deaths in the under 64s at the moment. The peak was far higher than in the older groups and it is not coming down as fast.

...would she happen to be referring to the largely unvaccinated under 64s??? Compared to older groups who started to be vaccinated in late December??

Hmmmmm

The more you think about it, the less sense it makes.

I don't think it's you.

[sTeamTraen]

Has Clare Craig not f.cked off yet? Geez.

She's a doctor (specialised in pathology, but nonetheless, a properly qualified medical doctor) who has managed to be unemployed for the entire pandemic. I hope suspect she is going to be unemployable in any capacity after this is over, apart perhaps the GB-UK-definitely-not-RWNJ-News's science correspondent.

And look, everyone's favourite HPV vaccine denier safety researcher Peter Gøtzsche is complaining that his work is being used by antivaxxers to push their conspiracy theories:

From a Facebook discussion. I think this is quite beautiful in its own way.

This same person who thinks it's suspicious that the government is not telling us how to "boost our immune systems(*)" is, of course, simultaneously arguing that Covid is not actually dangerous(**), thus making one wonder why we would need the boost to our immune systems. But never mind, I'm sure there's some form of logic somewhere.


(*) To the extent that one has "an immune system" (other than as a metaphor) that can be "boosted", getting a vaccine would seem to be quite a good way to do it.

(**) Although it was developed as a bio-weapon by the Chinese.

the government should tell us how to boost our immune systems

The government.

no, not like that

(although of course if you're in hospital suffering a cytokine storm in the later stages of the infection, you get given drugs to tell your immune system to calm down)

Between my asthma and hay-fever ATM my immune system can GTAF and then f.ck off some more, never mind boosting the f.cker.

Am I going f.cking mad? Help me out here. I'm on my phone so can't internet properly.

Got in an ill-advised argument on FB with an anti-vaxxer who insists the UK govt website says 1,419 vaccine deaths since 5th Jan. I presume he's talking about yellow cards but he keeps blustering and insisting I'm just too stupid to read the data and to be frank FB is so sh.t for searching back through even not on a phone...

So far as I know we have a handful of deaths probably attributable to AZ and that's it. Am I off by a couple of orders of magnitude or is FB guy just the prick I think he is?

[Martin Y]

Correction: 1143 "vaccine deaths". He also says 2020 was 37th out of the last 50 years for deaths so it sounds as if he has done his crank homework.

How about linking to it on the scrutineers FB group? Several people there have a lot of vaccine data.

[Martin Y]

I know there *is* a scrutible FB group but have never found it.

That's bollocks. I can link to tweets with credible data on that.

The previous time there were 600,000 deaths in a year was 1918.
