Here in Australia the politicians continue to push fear of the Wuhan virus with lockdowns and threat of mandatory vaccinations! However, ‘Now that we have had 18 months to “slow the spread” it is time to take stock of the pandemic. We have learned many good things that the media and our pandemic managers rarely report. Most fundamentally, we do not need to be afraid of COVID-19 anymore. The media and some government health authorities are still pushing hysteria and fear, but that should not prevail. Let’s look at the good news that can calm our fears about COVID-19. There’ll be time at a later date to look at the bad and the ugly of the resolving pandemic.
1) Globally, the survival rate for COVID-19 is 99.8%. Under the age of 70, the survival rate for COVID-19 is 99.97%. This is on par with many influenza seasons. Americans younger than 70 do not have to fear COVID-19 any more than influenza and we know how to protect the elderly.
2) Herd immunity for the alpha strain is here. Sixty-seven percent of the American population have had at least one COVID-19 vaccination. The official number of cases is about 10% of the population, but several antibody studies show that the percentage of those with natural immunity is 4-6 times higher. Dr. Marty Makary, a Johns Hopkins professor, estimates that 80-85% of the population is immune from natural immunity and vaccination. Those who deny this must explain how cases and deaths started to decline in January way before there was a significant vaccine effort. COVID-19 will not go away. Instead, we are transitioning now from a pandemic to endemic status and, indeed, some eminent virologists say vaccinating in the middle of a pandemic is making herd immunity more difficult to obtain through the creation of variants.
3) The average age of death from COVID is 78. The average life expectancy in America is 78. This is not to say, “Don’t worry, only old people are dying of COVID-19.” However, this fact should direct and inform our policies to protect the elderly especially. Children and those under age 70 are at much lower risk.
4) Early outpatient treatment should be adopted immediately for COVID-19. Hydroxychloroquine works. Ivermectin works. It has been estimated 85% of COVID-19 deaths could have been prevented were these medicines used early. America’s Frontline Doctors have an excellent compilation of research. The cost of these treatments is $1/day. A new IV treatment, REGEN-COV, has been approved for early use in COVID-19. Don’t wait to see if you will get sick. Treat early.
5) Children are safe from COVID-19 and don’t spread the virus either. A study in the UK showed that the survival rate in children is 99.995%. In the U.S. 335 children have died since the start of the pandemic. A study done by Johns Hopkins and FAIR Health showed that all of the children that died from April 2020 to August 2020 had immune problems or were chronically ill. In that period not one healthy child died. Children have more chance of dying in a car wreck, unintentional drug overdose, or influenza than from COVID-19. Vaccination for healthy children is not needed.
6) Sweden did not have a lockdown or mask mandate and did better with cases and deaths than many countries. Lockdown did not work and had serious cultural and economic side effects. There is ample literature now to show that masks, as we are using them, do not work.
7) Persons who have had COVID-19 infection have a robust and long-lasting immunity. This immunity also is likely to protect against variants. As evidence continues to accumulate that the new mRNA vaccines are neither as effective nor safe as advertised, I would advise not getting the vaccine on top of your natural immunity if you had the COVID-19 infection.
8) There is very little, if any, spread of COVID-19 from asymptomatic persons. This lie was spread early to maximize fear of this new virus. COVID-19 is like other respiratory viral infections—you catch it from being around someone who has symptoms. Like other viral infections, if you are sick stay home, quarantine yourself, and treat yourself. We do not need to quarantine the asymptomatic healthy.
9) The death rate nationally for COVID-19 has been going down since January. Breathless “news” reporters talk about cases, hospital occupation, and contagiousness but never mention the death decline. There has been a small uptick in deaths in some areas over the last week, but not anywhere close to last winter. (There will be some variations in the death rate as we transition to endemic status)
10) The Delta variant is acting like a typical historical virus variant. Typically, variants happen all the time and are more contagious but less deadly. Initial reports show that this is likely true with Delta. A UK report states the Delta variant is likely 20 times less deadly than the alpha strain, but that more data needs to be collected. The media constantly mentions that delta is more contagious which is also true. Other Greek variants are likely to behave in the same fashion.
We do not need to be afraid of COVID-19 anymore. Let’s begin to end the hysteria and fear. The worst is over and we are transitioning to endemic status which means a low level of cases and deaths.
We will have many fewer deaths if we start to treat the infection early now with the available outpatient treatments. We should resist further attempts at lockdowns and mask mandates as neither worked. We know exactly whom to protect—the elderly and those with chronic health problems. That’s where we should concentrate our energies.
Thankfully, children have very little risk and do not need masks at school or vaccinations. Variants will come but will not send us back into a situation like last year.
Can our pandemic managers take some of this useful information and transform it into helpful public health policies from this point forward? Or is there another agenda behind unending hysteria, fear, and the constant push for 100% vaccination? That remains to be seen. For now, let’s celebrate the good news.’https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2021/08/the_good_newsa_covid19_update.html
‘It had to happen. Science has evolved from Science to Science Fiction…sort of Science but not really. We’re told that even tho we know masks don’t work, Science Fiction says it does. Just ask the politicians. We know that lockdowns don’t work, but Science Fiction says it does. Just ask the politicians. Science says natural immunity is best but Science Fiction says it isn’t. Just ask the politicians.
So let’s explore what is Science and Science Fiction.’

“O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?” (Galatians 3:1)
‘The Greek word for “bewitched” is used only this once in the New Testament and does not necessarily refer to witchcraft as such. The connotation is “fascinated” or “deceived.” Unlike most of his other epistles, the book of Galatians includes no commendations from Paul, nor even any prayer requests. Paul evidently was very disappointed in this church and its ministry.
He had clearly preached the gospel to them, setting forth “Jesus Christ, and him crucified” (1 Corinthians 2:2) among them, and they had apparently believed and started out well. They seemed to understand the great doctrines of salvation by grace and of liberty in Christ, and it was hard for Paul to understand how they had been so quickly led astray.
If anything, this is even a greater problem today than in Paul’s day. Professing Christians are being “tossed to and fro… with every wind of doctrine” (Ephesians 4:14)—not only with legalism (as in Galatia) but also with evolutionism, hedonism, emotionalism, materialism, and many other unscriptural heresies. Many who profess to be Christians have, like the Galatians, been “bewitched” by clever persuasion and peer pressure into such deceptions.
They may consider themselves especially enlightened in some way, or intellectual, or just up-to-date, but Paul would call them “foolish” just as he did the Galatians. In Christ alone—our Creator, Redeemer, and Lord—are “hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge” (Colossians 2:3). As Paul concluded his letter to the Galatians: “God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world” (Galatians 6:14).’https://www.icr.org/article/12904/?utm_source=phplist9511&utm_medium=email&utm_content=HTML&utm_campaign=August+15+-+Bewitched
Money talks!
‘The continued propaganda coming from the offices of elected officials in addressing vaccine hesitancy is getting to the point of being sickening. And honestly, I wonder if perhaps criminal is the right word to use.
On July 27, 2021, sixteen Republican state senators in the state of Tennessee signed a letter making the following claims.
A strong majority of these cases are among those who are not vaccinated. And virtually all of those currently hospitalized with COVID-19 have not been vaccinated.
The vaccines have been found to be safe and effective against COVID-19. If they had been available from the start and widely used, over 600,000 American families that are mourning the loss of a loved one, along with tens of thousands of people who are awaiting lung transplants, or trying to learn to walk again, would have avoided that heartache.
The facts are clear — the benefits of the vaccines far outweigh the risks.
Unfortunately, efforts to get more people vaccinated have been hampered by politicization of COVID-19.
How do legislators make these kinds of statements with a straight face; and further, how are we still taking statements directly from the CDC as medical facts and apolitical? Recently, the American Medical Association suggested that it was time to drop the designation of sex (male and female) as a legal and medical designation. How can we continue to take seriously a medical community that can deny the existence of simple male and female biology?
Yet, we have a Republican majority legislature here in Tennessee that seems quite okay with taking statements from these so-called medical experts at face value and urging all Tennesseans to be vaccinated, because after all, vaccines are “safe and effective.”
OpenVAERS does an amazing job at creating an accessible version of the data that can be found in the CDC vaccine adverse events reporting system and other available data. As of July 23, 2021, with over 500,000 adverse events reported, there are…
11,940 deaths, 12,808 permanently disabled, 4,799 heart attacks, 11,199 life-threatening events amongst other reported injuries.
In addition to these startling statistics, we know conclusively that these shots are not vaccines. Vaccines, by previously known standards, prevent disease, at least according to the CDC. But these shots do no such thing. In fact, there is current evidence to suggest that the rate of spread of COVID-19 is now the same amongst those that have received a shot and those who have not.
And Tennessee doctors like Dr. Bryan Terry (District 48 Representative) had this to say on his Facebook page…
As some of you may know by now, I was the first Tennessee legislator to get the COVID vaccine. A few weeks ago, I tested positive for COVID. While it hasn’t been easy, I know it could’ve been so much worse; and in part, I attribute that to my vaccination status. I’m very thankful that I didn’t get COVID before I received the vaccine, especially considering my risk factors.
The message is constantly changing. Terry’s statement seems to acknowledge that this vaccine is not a vaccine at all and nothing more than a treatment. And honestly with the data that is available, who is to say that his contracting COVID-19 was not instead due to the fact that he was vaccinated? Anyone who actually wants to follow the science would be asking themselves that question, not simply assuming that the shot saved his life. Again, this was a shot that was supposed to prevent the disease in the first place.
Back to the 16 senators who signed a letter urging the use of this experimental treatment for a disease that is hardly a threat to the general population.
In sum, these senators have received a total of $67,050 in campaign contributions directly from Pfizer. And 58% of those contributions have gone directly to Lt. Governor Randy McNally and Senator Jack Johnson (Senate Majority Leader). Go figure that the encouragement from legislators to take a vaccine is most likely not one born of benevolence.
It is also worth noting that all of these signatures were garnered from Republican legislators. The Tennessee Legislative Campaign Committee is a PAC that has garnered over $100,000 in contributions directly from Pfizer. This PAC is currently managed by Scott Golden, the state chairman of the TN Republican Party.
Are these contributions tied directly to this letter? I don’t know. But it is certainly worth revealing that there is always money flowing behind the scenes in everything we see coming out of our General Assembly. And we would be fools to look the other way and pretend that money plays no role in these decisions being made that continue to infringe upon the freedoms of we the people here in Tennessee and erode trust in those who lead.
I can literally hear the hissing and the gnashing of teeth by some of those reading this commentary, feeling wronged and accused. Well, let me give you some advice. Stop spewing propaganda at your constituents. Stop ignoring your constituents. Stop pretending that you know better and simply do what you were sent to office to do. Secure our rights!
This year, a marketing firm called Designsensory provided a report to the Governor’s office regarding vaccine uptake in Tennessee. Here are some of the key findings of the study.
- 66% of Tennesseans are unwilling or undecided on getting the vaccine.
- 59% of Tennesseans are more scared of dying of the vaccine than of COVID-19.
- 70% of Tennesseans don’t trust any of the COVID-19 vaccines currently available.
- There is a broad lack of trust in information currently available regarding the vaccines.
- Only 25% believe that if enough people get vaccinated it will create herd immunity.
So let every legislator take note. We do not care about your opinion on vaccines. Literally. We. Do. Not. Care.
What we do care about is that vaccines are being forced upon employees and you are doing nothing about it. And you should. Local school districts are threatening mask mandates once again and you are doing nothing about it. And you should. Corporations around the country including the federal government are encouraging the widespread use of vaccine passports, including the NIH who stated support of the use of vaccine passports in order to get groceries. And this General Assembly has done nothing about it. And you should.’https://tennesseestands.org/commentary/tennessee-republican-senators-signed-a-letter-encouraging-the-vaccine-they-also-get-money-from-pfizer/
Pilate asked the Lord Jesus “What is truth?” The normal person desires the TRUTH and NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH! However, there are those in today’s society which make the TRUTH subjective and the TRUTH is only what they want it to be. For example the WOKE LEFTIST crowd are changing historical TRUTH to fit their agenda! Now, most of us believe places of education should be a place where TRUTH is taught but ‘After months of debate and a three-hour special meeting Wednesday, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill’s board of trustees voted 9–4 to approve tenure for Nikole Hannah-Jones, the leading author of the New York Times’s “1619 Project.”’https://www.theepochtimes.com/university-of-north-carolina-grants-tenure-to-1619-project-author-nikole-hannah-jones_3883068.html
‘“Saddening to hear Christian preacher Hatun Tash say Speakers’ Corner – a bastion of free speech since 1872 – has become ‘hostile and dangerous’”, tweeted Stephen Evans, Chief Executive of the National Secular Society. “The threat of a de facto blasphemy law enforced by the threat of violence is there for all to see”, he added, stating what everyone knows (if they have eyes and ears), but is rarely expressed for fear of the consequences. But if a sharia blasphemy code creeps into Speakers’ Corner, in can be enforced just about anywhere – by the implicit (and sometimes quite explicit) threat of violence.
After all, there is a still an RE teacher missing from Batley Grammar School, in hiding somewhere with his family, in fear for his life, simply because he showed a picture of Mohammed in an educational context, and all Jahannam broke loose.
But he’s yesterday’s news.
Hatun Tash is a thoughtful, intelligent, passionate Christian preacher. As an ex-Muslim, she has a lot to say about Islam and Jesus, or the prophet Isa, as she previously knew the Christ, the Messiah, the Son of God. And as she was preaching in Speakers’ Corner a week ago, she was stabbed.
Some were quick – perhaps too quick – to blame Islamists for the attack (which was, let’s be honest, attempted murder), but as the BBC point out, she was in Speakers’ Corner wearing a Charlie Hebdo T-shirt. In fact, that’s all the BBC tells us, so we are left infer that Hatun Tash was stabbed by someone who objected to a satirical magazine which once caricatured Mohammed on its front cover: there was no mention of Hatun Tash’s faith, no mention of her being a convert from Islam, no mention of her preaching, and there has been no update to the article at all. We are simply told that she had the audacity to wear a Charlie Hebdo T-shirt in Speakers’ Corner, which was awfully foul and hateful, if not bigoted and racist, and so ‘she had it coming’. The words of Det Supt Alex Bingley are left hanging: “I would ask people not to speculate on the motive for the attack until we have established the full facts.”
So people don’t speculate, for that would be Islamophobic. Or perhaps the speculation that it would be Islamophobic to speculate would be Islamophobic.
Yet we have the words of Hatun Tash herself: she told The Times that Speakers’ Corner has become a hostile and dangerous place for Evangelical Christians. She has been verbally and physically assaulted at Speakers’ Corner before, and alleges she has been arrested and detained by the Metropolitan Police for expressing opinions which one may no longer apparently express in Speakers’ Corner – that is, opinions which stir up ‘hate’.
She said: “I am upset and disturbed by what has happened to me. I am asking myself if have done anything wrong? I am convinced I have not broken any law or incited hate. All I did was question Islam and I wanted to debate discuss and to tell people about Jesus Christ. Speakers’ Corner is a great place to do this, it is a shame that this has happened at the home of freedom of speech.”
She added: “I can’t believe this has happened in broad daylight at Speakers’ Corner. You do not expect such things to happen in Great Britain. My attacker was not even afraid of the police as he did it right in front of them. It is heartbreaking that we live in a society where police do not want to arrest a Muslim for fear of being called ‘Islamophobic’.”

Hatun Tash is being supported by the Christian Legal Centre with her legal action against the police.
She is not supported by the Mayor Of London, Sadiq Khan, who said last year that he supports the arrest and ejection of preachers like Hatun Tash – even from Speakers’ Corner – over those who threaten violence and breach the peace:
As you know, freedom of speech is a principle that I hold dear. One of the best things about London is the fierce way in which we protect this right and people’s ability to exercise it. However, as I’m sure you will appreciate, the police have to balance this right with managing behaviour that could lead to public disorder. It is crucial that healthy debates do not lead to violence, and I support the rights of police officers to remove individuals in order to prevent a breach of the peace.
She is not being supported by any senior politicians (in Government or Opposition) in her robust defence of the freedoms of speech and expression.
And she is not being supported by any Bishops of the Church of England, who have no time for this sort of interfaith dialogue; no time for debating the Qur’an or preaching the gospel of Christ in the public realm like St Paul used to do; and no time to demand that Speakers’ Corner – that national, indeed global bastion of free speech – remains free from a backdoor blasphemy law.
To all these, the religious extremist here is the Christian preacher: she had it coming.’https://archbishopcranmer.com/speakers-corner-adopts-a-de-facto-sharia-blasphemy-code/
Abortion is the murder of the unborn and is sadly accepted as normal in by Western governments and today’s society. Abortion has many victims. This is Natalia’s Abortion Story!
