Covid Con

Mark Musser

A real doctor, (not the medical bureaucrat pictured below who worked his way up the government ladder by conflating the AIDS scare to include any number of other possible candidates who could eventually contract the virus), Dr. Brian Joondeph, has written a very good article saying similar things to what a personal doctor friend of mind already told me before we left the states a month ago or so to travel back overseas. While there are always exceptions which are easy to find in a country the size of America at well over 300 million people, for the most part, the vast majority of deaths from COVID were terminal patients. Nursing homes in particular became targets, and in certain northeastern states, became willful euthanasia centers supplied with body bags to boot. The CDC then coughed not long ago that only 10,000 people in America have died strictly of COVID. This means at once that the numbers are vastly conflated and speculative as to what the real cause of death is. COVID probably helped hasten some deaths, but again, it is not clear. Yet the media reports have been telling us everyday all these numbers ipso facto as if this is why people died - and the Hollywood/ Broadway media are not doctors, but artists, and looking more and more like con artists. Even with the conflated numbers, however, we still have not reached anyway near the Spanish Flu pandemic that killed millions, and millions, and millions of people of all ages.

My doctor friend complained about how health officials were pushing the COVID narrative even onto the death certificates, and compared all the singular coverage on this virus as a form of panic porn. Now a UCLA study has declared that the odds of people dying from COVID between the ages of 50-64 are astronomical. We already knew young people have virtually no chance of dying from it.

I also write all this coming from experience. It has been shown my own wife had this virus back in the late winter and/or early spring, which we already knew, but finally had it confirmed. It is a bad virus, no question, which is full of a vast array of symptoms that last 2-3 weeks. She had virtually every COVID symptom, but she treated it like the regular flu, and recovered just fine. It is also true that one person connected to our ministry work overseas did became gravely ill from this virus, but with strong medicine, he also recovered - a $700 medical bill to fix it was far better than trillions of dollars.

I have never felt so robbed in all of my life, robbed of 6 months work and ministry that is lost time, water under the bridge now that cannot be recovered, not to mention all of the foolish madness my life was subjected to from time to time just trying to do normal, simple things. I have also been robbed of no small amount of cash with any number of ministry trips that had to be cancelled. And for what? I still do not have any answers to that question.

In his article Dr. Joondeph essentially has the same questions that I have had circulating in my mind as soon as they began the lockdowns which I knew back then were sheer madness, "Are these rules and restrictions for the public good or are they a means of power and control over the people? The most draconian measures are being pushed by Democrats at the local, state, and national levels. Yet personally they often ignore the mandates they impose on the rest of us. Do they know more about the dangers, or lack of, than they are letting on? Are they hiding the truth about the Wuhan virus for political reasons? Such as data from a UCLA/ Stanford study finding the risk for a 50 to 64 year old of hospitalization is 1 in 790,000 and of death only 1 in 6,670,000. This is not what the media is telling us.

Is this a form of insider trading? A company insider knows of an upcoming announcement, merger, or acquisition that will affect stock price. They buy or sell stock accordingly based on that knowledge that the rest of the market does not yet possess. Such insider trading is unfair, and also illegal, except for members of Congress, who granted themselves an exemption. It would be one thing if Democrat officials themselves abided by these burdensome diktats that they impose on others, but don’t." While the virus is not a hoax, the colossal government response to it is another thing entirely ...

1 I watched two football games this past week, games which perfectly reflected what happens with differing reactions to corona virus. Two teams, both military academies, both running the same "triple option” offense.

Army played Middle Tennessee and won 42-0. Yes, I realize it was Middle Tennessee, but the Army offense was like a well oiled machine. The triple option is actually fairly easy to stop unless it is executed with outstanding discipline and precision. Army did precisely that. It was delightful to watch.

Navy played Brigham Young University and lost 55-3. Yes, I realize it was BYU, but the game was not as close as the score would indicate. The Midshipmen wandered around on the football field like a herd of unguided sheep. It was easy to see why US Navy ships are staggering around in the Pacific Ocean colliding with cargo ships.

The Navy coach admitted that his team looked like a team that was not ready to play. The announcers were telling us that, due to the corona virus, the team had not been permitted to engage in contact drills or practice live tackling. They applauded the coach for "putting the safety of his players first.”

Well, his players would have been safer yet if he had not allowed them onto the field at all. Perhaps he should have done that. But that is America today. We no longer care about being effective, or doing the job. We care about safety. A military that practices that philosophy has soldiers that stay in their foxholes, and it loses wars.

We will applaud the coach that lost 55-3, because he "kept his players safe.”

I will tell you from my observation, that Army team did not look like a team obsessed with safety. It did not look like a team unwilling to practice because it was terrified of a virus. It did not look like a team that cared more about themselves than it did about the job with which they had been charged. It looked like a bunch young men with balls.

2 Bill: I'm glad to hear that Army upheld their tradition. Sorry to hear that Navy has forgotten theirs. I really wonder if those who are "teaching" them at Annapolis remember WW II, especially around the time of the Battle of Midway? Safety was not a consideration then.

I'm also reminded of the Army-Navy football game years ago, when the vaunted Roger Staubach was quarterback, and Navy got their heads handed to them by Army, led by a relative unknown quarterback named Rollie Stichweich (sp?) (pronounced "stitch-weigh"). The score was heavily in favor of Army, though I don't remember it. From then on, I always though Staubach was under-rated, and if I remember correctly, his NFL career with the Cowboys was less than stellar.

3 Sounds like Navy forgot that these players are seamen first and should know they are not there to play it safe. Shoot, if you can't go for broke in sports how are you going to win a war?
