Tegnell also said many different things in his interview with Unherd

(https://unherd.com/thepost/anders-tegnell-sweden-won-the-argument-on-covid/)

1. On vaccines:

"I think the big change, since we talked last time, is really the vaccinations. There, we really found the tool that’s going to make the difference. And all the other things we have tried are not going to be very important anymore, because reaching and achieving a high vaccination level is the one way we can get out of this pandemic. There does not seem to be any other way, really."

2. Winter (ie, we are in it now):

"I really do believe that we’re going to have a much easier winter than last winter. Because really, 95, 96% of the people that got badly hurt last winter, they are now vaccinated, and they have good protection. And I think we have every reason to believe that that protection will last through the winter. There might be groups that need another shot; we have plenty of vaccines and resources around that we can give them that so we can keep on protecting them if the need arises."

So, in short, most countries (Norway, Sweden, Denmark) that are ending various restrictions, are pushing the narrative that it was the vaccines that ended the pandemic there.

Government Data Shows The “Unvaccinated” Are Less Likely To Get COVID

Data from the U.K. from Aug. 16 to Dec. 5, 2021, showed people who had been vaccinated accounted for four of every five COVID-19 deaths, the Gateway Pundit reported. Further, a U.K. “technical briefing on SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern” found that as of Dec. 29, the fully vaccinated make up 74% of hospitalizations due to infection from the omicron variant that now dominates Western nations.

CDC Director: “What Vaccines Can’t Do Anymore Is Prevent Transmission”

The European Union’s top health agency warned that getting boosted every four months could harm the immune system’s ability to fight off the disease.

There's no such thing as..."Covid". And therefore nothing to transmit.

Thankfully, parts of Canada are doing the same, while not using the words, "pandemic over."

I think they'd be terrified to open up all sorts of litigation, particularly given what other provinces are (still) playing at.

The Great Pandemic of the Mind.., 2022.

How anyone fell for any part of it is still beyond me.

I never thought I was smarter than most. I did think most people were on the same playing field. In the past two years, I have learned the opposite is true, and it didn't make me happy. Now that I am aware of this sad fact, however, will I continue to expect humanity to see the lies for what they are? Likely so. I guess I'm not ready to abandon all hope.

Litigation schmiddigation. The Enemy owns all of the courts and judges, and fears no lawsuits.

It seems to depend on the belief system of the enemy. If they think it might happen, it may scare them into watching their p's and q's. I do know one thing; every one of their mandates/decrees list, "outs", which most people can take advantage of. The writers also are careful to not say it is, "law", and/or, "required." Each and every, "new rule", I read, and I have read them from many states, as well as countries, are the same. Every one of 'em.

No legislation has been brought forth or enacted. Pretty funny that anyone went along with the bull-hockey. I know I didn't.

On December 16, 2021, Steve posted an article describing his interactions with Jeffrey Morris, a well known vaccine advocate, and a biostatistician on the faculty of University of Pennsylvania. A few days ago, the National File posted an article entitled "University That Funds Biden's Think Tank And Hosts FactCheck.Org Has Contract With BioNTech, Gets Paid For Vaccine Sales And FDA Approvals"

(https://nationalfile.com/university-funds-bidens-think-tank-hosts-factcheck-org-contract-biontech-gets-paid-vaccine-sales-fda-approvals/).

The article shows that "University of Pennsylvania, which hosts and funds Joe Biden’s think tank called the Penn Biden Center, directly profits from the sale of Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna Coronavirus vaccines. The University gets more money if more vaccines are sold. The University of Pennsylvania also gets “milestone payments” when the Biden administration’s Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approves a Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, which represents a massive conflict of interest for Biden."

The UPenn policy on vaccine mandates states "All students, faculty, and staff are required to receive a COVID-19 booster shot. Anyone who is not yet eligible for the booster must receive the shot within 30 days of becoming eligible." So, the organization that mandates these shots to people of an age who have essentially zero risk from harmful COVID-19 effects coincidentally happens to profit from this mandating decision.

This is Jeffrey's home institution. How many people in that institution would bite the hand that feeds them directly or indirectly, or at least feeds the institution from which they get paid? What other financial ties exist between other aspects of the institution, including but going beyond faculty? and, what leads us to believe that such ties and profits are limited to UPenn? How many other "educational" institutions have such links to the vaccine promoters, and are placing their students and faculty in jeopardy because of these links? And how many of these critics of the truth about the harm the vaccines cause are direct or indirect beneficiaries of these arrangements, and try to pass themselves off as independent objective observers?

So what can we do?

I suggest running a petition to demand the refund of all our property taxes starting March 17, 2020 and until the county lifts all restrictions.

No one has the power to declare people "essential" and "non-essential".

And we should not be required to pay for our own prison cells.

Especially businesses that had to close for months on end.

If more than half the county petitions the courts, they would have to refund taxes.

IMHO

People paid taxes these past two years? Wow.

But, our counties, states, and federal government, require no tax dollars. They just petition the Fed (at least in USA) to print more funds. Tax dollars pay very little. That's why governments are so far in the hole.

I'm very happy for Sweden; they are clearly using common sense and logic, and real science in their decision making. But, since you mentioned dr. Cody - we have a similar fascist/idiot here in Canada as well, dr. Bonnie Henry of British Columbia. Two years into the plandemic, she's now hell bent on forcing ALL (incl. naturopaths and TCM practitioners!) medical staff of all levels to be fully jabbed, or be fired. Two years... with this crap ending, she's forcing that ridiculous mandate "to keep people safe"... Everyone, well, except for the cult of covid braindead progressives, knows these jabs were never effective in prevention or transmission, especially now with Omicron sniffle going around. People are VERY angry with Henry, and the government in general. No wonder she needs bodyguards to keep her safe; her and Trudeau are the two most despised creatures in Canada.

Thank you Steve. Sweden and Finland are leading by example. Living with viruses and bacteria builds natural immunity. WHO will not back down because they clearly have a different agenda. Our governments cannot admit they were wrong and will never apologize. Sadly, most law abiding citizens follow the status quo, trust mainstream media and are blindly compliant.

England also lifted all restrictions, whilst Germany and Austria are even planning mandatory COVID vaccinations. In Germany you still arent allowed to visit restaurants or shops if you are unvaxxed, or ride public transportation and to to work without a daily COVID test. Vaccination totalitarianism.

Steve, you're assuming lockdowns (that penitentiary term) were about health and safety, rather than social and economic ruination, their realms of efficacy. We should hold our authorities to account for their criminal success and the ongoing ramifications through the damaged, trustful lives. Mere surcease of the crimes are not acquittal or exoneration. The leaders and their accessories must pay their debt to society via harsh, penal sentences. Recklessness and stupidity are not outs, either. They knew the disruption, injustices and damages to be wrought; as some political or NWO gains. A consensus on their shamefulness will also not suffice. The next steps: Investigation, assignment of blame, prosecution & sentencing. Injurious caprice by the elite must be clearly defined as felonious conduct leading to indictment. A so-called experiment, taking no heed at all of viral and pandemic medical history & measures, is a ruthless act perpetrated by blatant psychotics. Life sentences in mental institutions might be an attenuating option where premeditated injury and murder cannot be proven beyond a shadow of doubt. Think Tribunal as an antecedent to the courtroom. Wreck them publicly, and then judicially.

From the Spanish Disease, 1918, until now, it again and again has been seen that lockdown don't solve diseases. And months ago we from Canada then read that 4 times as many died by results caused by restrictions, and fear, than by Covid-19; depression, scared to visit hospital to test for cancer and so on. Results in the future without doubt will turn out to state more than 4 to 1.

I've read a number of comments claiming the black community is the least jabbed group in the USA. It was suggested that only 30% of blacks have been jabbed. This is perfectly understandable given the sordid history of US government medical experimentation on the black community. Liberals in government and the media are ignoring conservative anti-mandaters...they reflexively abhor patriotic white males. They always characterize any predominantly white male group as privileged racist misogynists....as Trudeau has just done in Canada.

What about the ongoing discrimination against blacks via the same mandates? I suspect this would be politically more problematic for the liberals. Perhaps more attention could be focused on this. Publicly confront the liberals with their own racial discrimination and hypocrisy.

Stop believing all of the fake outrage-porn..."history"...that you think you know from all of the rubbish that you've read. And start sifting the wind for better, actually truthful information instead of always falling back on the sheeple default about the decades and centuries of ubiquitous institutionalized racism.

Thank you for the confirmation, Brett. Thank you for the lead on "Medical Apartheid".

It might really help if the Trucker Movement gave greater voice and visibility to blacks and other POC. To me, skin color is meaningless. But we know liberals are obsessed with it, and would panic if they saw their black and POC support start jumping ship for the side actively protecting their rights. This could be the liberals Achilles Heel.

"Meanwhile in high tech Silicon Valley"

I am in Silly Con Valley. Look at what we've done! We've made high tech gulag when it was our precise opposite intention. We kind of deserve what is happening to us.

One thing I've learned over the last 2 years is people have both a lot less intellectual curiosity and critical thinking than I thought all these "geniuses" once did, and they have far less backbone and principles than I ever possibly imagined. I am entirely disillusioned.

Silly Con Valley ain't the place to be anymore in "high tech".

Do you know what many of us set out to do in the 1990's? It was to demonstrate the corruption of the government, that is why we made the Internet - well, many of us.

We had direct access to news feeds on USENet before they went through an editor. We had direct information. We could talk to anybody in the world for close to no cost. We knew but what blocked us, is nobody believed our media was corrupt, nobody believed that our government was openly criminal. It has been 3 decades, and it's been no end of frustration.

For the first time in my career, I have hope that FINALLY people are waking up. Finally.

We had no idea how many enemies there were working against us. We throught Google was our friend - it's NOT our friend. There was a time that if a company tried to pull crap like censorship, it was abandoned in short order. This is basically what happened to Yahoo! to make them irrelevant. They were once the UNDISPUTED King of the Internet, but they took payments to get placement in their search engine, they moderated and censored comments on their news articles back in the late 1990's and early 2000's.

It's taken decades, decades, but I think finally we are breaking through. Finally. What we are up against has finally been unmasked and that's 90% of the problem, knowing what you're up against.

The propaganda will fail, the media will disappear - ALL they are is propaganda. It's not just "news", it's everywhere. Late night funny men are all given marching orders. Didn't realize that 20 years ago. Television shows tell us what social attitudes we're supposed to have, what we're supposed to wear, what is "fashionable" and what isn't.

Or it did. The concept of "mass hypnosis/formation" - that's not new at all. It's been around all my life, certainly all my adult life. We've been an insane society since at least 1990 and probably long before that. If you think it's bad now, you just don't realize what it was like then. In 1990, 90% of people believed the "news" media was at least trying to be honest and the same percentage thought if the party they didn't like wouldn't do something they wanted, the OTHER party would.

People are finally waking up to the fraud and we set out to do this. I've spent over 1/2 my life hoping to see this happen.

We may be facing revolution because reform doesn't seem possible. Julian Assange is going to die in prison, Jeffrey Epstein is probably sipping martini's with Ken Lay in the Cayman Islands. If people knew just how truly criminal our government was, it would reform one way or another, and I'm hopeful to see that. Hope it's not messy.

Sorry about the fuckups we made along the way. Don't worry, Facebook, Youtube, Google, and Twitter can be trivially replaced now. It's YOUR choice to continue to use them. I don't. Google is 5 miles from my place.

I'm a retired I.T., and your post is like an echo from my past. Everything you just said is a 100 percent spot on. I miss the old style journalists actually reporting news, not their opinions, having integrity and guts to tell the truth.

I miss the doctors who took an Oath to do no harm, and lived by it.

I thought, all these Cali techie types with above average IQ would actually use their brains to rig something up, take over tv and radio stations and show the world the unedited truth about this scamdemic. So very disappointed there was no "Revenge of the Nerds, p.V"...

Censorship isn't a sign of strength, it's an indication of weakness. Take heart in that.

People have been conditioned into thinking Facebook, Google, Twitter, Amazon, and Youtube is "the internet". It's not.

There's something in the works called IPFS - basically http over bit torrent. If I want to get a web page, I would download it from everybody that had downloaded it in the last few hours. The problem is the DHT isn't really great, you have to poke holes in your router, and you have to know what you're doing basically.

We'll win in time, and by "we" I mean we'll all win. We're up against a very small minority. The more they consolidate power, the weaker they paradoxically get.

Expand full comment

Yes, censorship shows they are petrified of us. Despite what lies msm tells me, I believe, majority of Canadians are fed up with the compliance to nonsensical mandates.

Many thanks for the nudge on IPFS (love the name, btw), it is new to me but I'm just looking through the docs right now. Looks good. I've been using HASH tables pretty much forever, and poking my router is no problem either. I currently use cryptostorm, token based, no backtrace if used with BTC or similar.

Censorship is showing that FINALLY we're having an effect. I could write anything I wanted (nearly) anywhere on what BS the Bush administration was putting out to start the SECOND Iraq war.

I could talk about Scott Ritter, Hussein's history of murdering any religious leader that DARED to enter politics, his 8 year long war against Islamic leaders in Iran - it wasn't possible he would have worked with binLaden to do 9/11 - and that was the propaganda at the time.

I could point out that what was presented at the UN were computer generated graphics, that satellites at the time had higher resolution than what was presented (FAR higher in fact), and that there was no evidence of "mobile weapons labs".

I was just a nut on the internet. Experts knew better than I did was the thinking of anybody that read what I wrote. I didn't work in US military intelligence. I was just dismissed.

But we're not being dismissed anymore - we're being censored, because we are being listened to. I attribute this in large part to a carnival barker being made president for 4 years who called out our "news" media for what it is - propaganda, and them lying about him for 4 years.

Thank you Trump. Not saying he was perfect, FAR FROM IT, but he wasn't worthless, and that's all I've seen since I hit 18 in 1989. Worthless garbage "presidents" which were just meat puppets for the intelligence agencies.

DHT is too slow, it's a problem with crypto. You can't move bitcoin around in a reasonable amount of time, it will always be a speculative investment, and you're never going to be able to buy a pizza with bitcoin. It's an agonizingly slow data base.

IPFS works with Brave. You can set up IPFS on a virtual machine to play with it. It's more for file sharing than it is for HTTP at this point. IPFS has chunks of files in ridiculously small parts - I think 4KB. It has to be 4GB. There's too much over-head in trying to find parts. Back in 1990, 4KB would have been a reasonable chunk size.

There will be a distributed solution. Instead of people posting videos and comments and thoughts on a centralized server and hoping that they aren't censored, they will have a raspberry pi running on 5 watts, and that will their website. Costs about $5 a year to run.

Corporations and government have BETRAYED the population. This is the nuclear option though. Imagine being able to setup a communication system that is impervious to monitoring, and can be setup to be completely private. The WORST THINGS POSSIBLE are always done with technology. We've been holding off doing this for years although there are already solutions for it. BitTorrent is an example.

People just don't understand what kind of computing power they have. My pathetic raspberry PI with 128 GB SD card, makes the MAINFRAME I worked on in 1990 look like a toy in comparison. It handled 2000 students. My PI can do that. I can run a small company on this little toy. $75 bucks, and I have a nice FLIRC case - I recommend them.

They will lose. We have so much computing power and STORAGE it's insane. Everything I've ever written, everything I've ever read, everything I have heard (converted to text) can TRIVIALLY fit on a $20 SD card. It's smaller than my finger nail. I can put on 2000 hours of music in high fidelity, and 2 solid weeks of films on it in 1080p. It's $20 bucks.

Every film I've ever seen or ever will see, every television show, every documentary, everything I've ever read online or offline, I can store in under $1000 worth of storage. I don't think the authorities have any concept of just what they are up against. The point of this communication device was nothing less than liberation. They can try to usurp it, but you don't want to piss of nerds.

They can engage in censorship, but it's a lot easier to go underground today than it was 20 years ago. Samizdat took down the USSR, it's a LOT easier with the Internet. Our great problem is convincing our population there is a problem. People don't see the problem, and if they can't see it, they can't even attempt to fix it.

Look, I understand our establishment is scum - that's FINE. I wouldn't want their position. Being a billionaire would be a nightmare for me, I'd quickly lose my mind with indulgences. My problem is that they are pulling up the ladder, and they are constantly lying to the population. This is retarding society's growth - we can't allow this. We're getting better not worse, and they don't want us to get better.

Are you hanging around "smart and educated" people, or more blue collar people that would rather watch the sportsball game than "news"?

Know your weakness. We eggheads are educated because we trusted our teachers, then doctors, and other authorities. It was only after I left academia I realized a lot of what I was taught was nonsense on some level or another.

The people who left college or didn't even go into it, or dropped out of high school, were the class clowns, that blew off their course work, a SIGNIFICANT number of them realized they were being taught bullshit WELL before I did.

They are probably actually smarter than we are.

We have an inverted society. What do you think of when you hear the term "useless eaters"? You probably think truck drivers, grocery store clerks, auto mechanics, farmers and so on. That's wrong. It's doctors, engineers, business men, lawyers, and politicians.

You get rid of one section of society, and society doesn't exist. Get rid of us - what's going to happen? You won't have the neat new toy you really don't need? I have a $150 phone which I've had for 4 years. You know how different it is from a $1,000 phone? It isn't. It's missing a logo on it, that's it.

Are we "smart"? Is somebody that spent $1,000 on a phone, smart?

"Smart" people are the most GULLIBLE people.

I have a friend who is an MIT graduate whose father is a PhD biologist, who can't see any contradiction with "the unvaccinated pose a risk to the vaccinated". His FATHER doesn't see a contradiction with this. I'm very surprised and DISGUSTED with the weakness of people's self confidence in their own thinking among "the educated".

I'm developing a healthy respect though of the blue collar classes thinking. They ARE calling BS on this.

From an NZ politician Winston Peters:

We were told to get vaccinated once, then twice, and now three times – and we have done that. So why still is Labour persisting with these crushing, inconsistent, and thoughtless mandates that only serve to attack kiwi’s freedoms, businesses, and livelihoods?

It is clear that Omicron is much more virulent but much less dangerous – this is a fact. The so-called expert modelling has been so far off – to a factor of tens – that we have had enough. Huge swaths of ordinary kiwis have already made their minds up - they will no longer scan, they will no longer test.

The removal of freedoms and the forced compliance of a great number of kiwis, has served only to create a huge divide in our country. It’s now them and us. Whether Labour knew it would happen and took the risk anyway or whether they still just don’t accept it, the reality is that the often contradictory, inconsistent, and nonsensical nature of the mandates they have imposed are the sole cause of the protests we are now seeing.

Let’s be clear, the vast majority of those protesters are not violent anti-vaxers – they are pro-freedom. They are ordinary fed-up kiwis like me and you. New Zealand was built upon the sacrifices of our forebears who fought and died for the very freedoms these protesters are trying to hold on to. It is any wonder there is a large number, a silent majority, of kiwis who have grown frustrated.

There are many countries around the world that are starting to say that mandates are no longer justified – the reality is they are right. The Prime Minister has been forced to say that it is only a matter of time before these mandates go. It now seems that time will be when it suits the Labour party, not the people. The problem is for too many it will then be too late.

The unavoidable fact is that if Labour was properly prepared, didn’t delay, exhibited a little less hubris, and didn’t show extreme inexcusable incompetence, we wouldn’t be in this position in the first place.

"The so-called expert modelling has been so far off – to a factor of tens –" Readers might be interested in the recent blog of Dr Malcolm Kendrick, UK, with observations on the infection fatality rate and comment on Neil Ferguson and his inacccurate computer modelling indicating a fatality rate of 1%. Dr Kendrick writes : Thus, for more than two thirds of the population, the risk of dying from COVID19 has been 0.0075%. Instead of one per cent… it has been seven thousandths of one per cent.
