Maybe it was only a matter of time.

Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, President Biden’s top medical adviser for the coronavirus pandemic, has tested positive for Covid-19 and is experiencing “mild symptoms,” the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases said Wednesday.

Dr. Fauci, the institute’s director, was positive on a rapid antigen test, the agency said in a statement. It added that he is fully vaccinated against the virus and has been boosted twice.

The 81-year-old Dr. Fauci has not recently been in close contact with President Biden or other senior government officials and would “isolate and continue to work from his home,” the statement said. He will return to his office once he tests negative. . .

On Oct. 4, 2020, with Prof. Sunetra Gupta of Oxford University, we wrote the Great Barrington Declaration (GBD). Our purpose was to express our grave concerns over the inadequate protection of the vulnerable and the devastating harms of the lockdown pandemic policy adopted by much of the world; We proposed an alternative strategy of focused protection.

The key scientific fact on which the GBD was based—a more than thousand-fold higher risk of death for the old compared to the young—meant that better protection of the old would minimize COVID deaths. At the same time, opening schools and lifting lockdowns would reduce the collateral harm to the rest of the population.

The Declaration received enormous support, ultimately attracting signatures from over 50,000 scientists and medical professionals and over 800,000 members of the public. Our hope in writing was two-fold. First, we wanted to help the public understand that—contrary to the prevailing narrative—there was no scientific consensus in favor of lockdown. In this, we succeeded.

Second, we wanted to spur a discussion among public health scientists about how to better protect the vulnerable, both those living in nursing homes (where ~40 percent of all COVID deaths have occurred) and those living in the community. We provided specific proposals for focused protection in the GBD and supporting documents to spur the discussion. Though some in public health did engage civilly in productive discussions with us, in this aim we had limited success.

Unbeknownst to us, our call for a more focused pandemic strategy posed a political problem for Dr. Francis Collins and Dr. Anthony Fauci. The former is a geneticist who, until last week, was the director of the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH); the latter is an immunologist who directs the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID). They are the biggest funders of medical and infectious disease research worldwide.

Collins and Fauci played critical roles in designing and advocating for the pandemic lockdown strategy adopted by the United States and many other countries. In emails written four days after the Great Barrington Declaration and disclosed recently after a FOIA request, it was revealed that the two conspired to undermine the Declaration. Rather than engaging in scientific discourse, they authorized “a quick and devastating published takedown” of this proposal, which they characterized as by “three fringe epidemiologists” from Harvard, Oxford, and Stanford.

It should be fun to see what excuses they come up with when comedians like Heather McDonald are dropping right on stage and fracturing their skulls in front of 20,000 people. I’m am confident they will think of something creative. This is getting interesting.

Comedian Heather McDonald delivered her second joke “I’m vaxxed, double vaxxed, boosted … and flu shot and shingle shot and haven’t gotten COVID and Jesus loves me most.”

“As soon as she delivered the joke, she just collapsed and hit her head on the floor.”

Instant karma?

Neil Young, considered by many Americans a thief of our music and an ‘innocent’ (read: ignorant) when it comes to understanding American culture and history, quits Spotify for allowing the public to be informed directly by world renowned experts and researchers who have successfully treated Covid-19 patients.

As just one example of appropriating American songs as his own, look at the Everly Brothers’ rendition of Sonny Curtis’, “Walk Right Back”. Rock and Roll ‘grandpa’ Neil Young takes it for granted his audience won’t know (read: “too stupid”) the Everly Brothers or Sonny Curtis when hearing, “Harvest Moon.”

“My hero then was Sonny Curtis … I admired him so much, I wanted to change my name to Sonny. I even tried to stand like him.”

Waylon Jennings

In all candor, Neil Young should get on his knees and kiss every American’s ass who’s lost a loved one or who has been harmed by the so called Covid-19 “Vaccine”.

Title: Povidone Iodine (PVP-I) Oro-Nasal Spray: An Effective Shield for COVID-19 Protection for Health Care Worker (HCW), for all

Abstract: SARS- CoV-2 or novel coronavirus enters in human body through nose and mouth, stays there for a while. Then binds with ACE2 receptor, enters inside cell, multiply there and manifests. Again, Polyvinyl Pyrrolidone or Povidone Iodine (PVP-I) is a strong microbicidal agent having 99.99% virucidal efficacy in its only 0.23% concentration, irrespective of all known viruses, even in SARS- CoV-2 (in vitro). An oro-nasal spray is designed to apply the PVP-I in nose and oral cavity to gain a protective layer or coating over nasal and oral mucosa, so that SARS-CoV-2 can’t bind with the ACE-2 receptor and prevent their entry inside. So, it will be effective for prevention of COVID-19. Moreover, as PVP-I has the ability for destruction of SARS-CoV-2, transmission of SARS- CoV-2 from patient will be reduced also. Thus PVP-I oro-nasal spray can act as an effective shield for COVID-19 protection for healthcare workers, for all.

Background: . . . Here, an effective and safe Oro-Nasal Spray is designed to apply the PVP-I in nose and oral cavity to gain a protective layer or coating over nasal and oral mucosa, so that SARS-CoV-2 can’t bind with the ACE-2 receptor and prevent their entry inside. Thus it will be effective for prevention of COVID-19. Moreover, as PVP-I has the ability for destruction of SARS-CoV-2, transmission of SARS- CoV-2 will be reduced also . . .

Oro-Nasal Spray: . . . In Japan, 0.45% PVP-I throat spray is being used since long for prevention of cold and sore throat treatment. Gargling with PVP-I or spraying the throat with PVP-I is encouraged and included in their national respiratory guideline [9, 10]. . .

Safety of PVP-I Oro-Nasal sprays: Oral PVP-I gargle, throat spray, nasal spray formulations are currently available as over-the-counter medications in many countries, including Japan and Canada. PVP-I in low concentrations has not been known to stain teeth or to cause any major adverse effect. PVP-I oronasal spray should better to avoid in patients with iodine allergy or those undergoing radioiodine treatment or thyroid dysfunction. In a study PVP-I is proved ciliotoxic in concentrations of 5% and 10%, but not in proposed low concentration 8. . .

My Experience with PVP-I in COVID-19 Era: HCWs (Health Care Workers) of multiple hospitals or institutes of different parts of the world are using PVP-I in different form for protection from SARS-CoV-2. In Bangladesh authorities or individual doctors of Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, National Institute of ENT, Bangladesh ENT Hospital, ENT and Head Neck Cancer Hospital and most of the ENT, dental or maxillofacial related health care professionals adopted this policies in different extent. . .

DOUBLE-JABBED Scots are now more likely to be admitted to hospital with Covid than the unvaccinated amid an increase in elderly people falling ill due to waning immunity.

It comes amid “weird” data showing that case rates have been lower in unvaccinated individuals than the single, double, or even triple-jabbed since Omicron became the dominant variant in Scotland, reports our sister title The Herald. . . .

Main points

• As at 09 January 2022, there have been 1,056,835 confirmed COVID-19 cases; 68,081 of these were recorded in the most recent week, a decrease of 40.4% from the previous week.
• There has been a 4.3% decrease in the number of Lateral Flow Device (LFD) asymptomatic tests carried out in the last week. There have been 19,303,280 LFD tests carried out in Scotland since 19 November 2020, of which 189,514 were positive (1.0%)
• In the week ending 02 January 2022, 126,737 individuals were recorded in the contact tracing software, from which 96,436 unique contacts have been traced. . . .
