2022: The Year of COVID Pandemic Policy Backpedaling
Ted Cruz Berates Biden Administration for Playing ‘Pandemic Politics’.
I predict the next 365-days will be filled with a great deal of backpedaling from the media, bureaucrats, and politicians on a number of different policies that have been pushed as “expert” pandemic guidance.
Of course, the moves are based on political calculations related to November and not for the public interest.
The reversal in course has already started in earnest with COVID pandemic policies. To begin with, few media outlets have promoted the fear of COVID more than MSNBC. Now one of its hosts is agreeing with my assertion that the virus cannot be contained and we must learn to live with it.
.@chrislhayes on the weird reality for vaccinated folks amid omicron wave:
The risk went from something we hadn’t really dealt with before in our lifetimes, to something that looks more like the flu. The flu can still be dangerous—but we do not reorient our lives around the flu. pic.twitter.com/4K5qNOplpW

Granted, Hayes is saying the vaccinated (particularly the vaccinated and boosted) can view COVID like the flu. However, that is miles from the Black Plague protocol that has been embraced before.
Also appearing on MSNBC was godlet and Biden COVID advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci. During an interview, he made an admission that many of us have known for some time: Those who are hospitalized or die with COVID do not necessarily do so because of the disease.
‘If a child goes into the hospital, they automatically get tested for COVID and they get counted as a COVID-hospitalized individual, when, in fact, they may go in for a broken leg or appendicitis or something like that.
"We're trying to prevent people from getting sick." Dr. Fauci notes that even though case numbers can be a useful predictor, when illness from the virus is less severe (as appears to be the case with Omicron), hospitalizations becomes a more important metric than infections. pic.twitter.com/UBp4gnLp1P

After his admission, Texas Senator Ted Cruz blasted the Biden administration for playing ‘pandemic politics‘:
It means some children are some are testing positive while in the hospital for something else, resulting in the hospitalization figures being elevated.
Cruz responded with a tweet saying: ‘Now Fauci says this? Is this because pandemic politics have changed for the Biden admin?’
COVID policies will certainly give Cruz and other Republicans a great deal of fodder for 2022 and 2024.
Even the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Rochelle Walensky is explaining that the PCR-tests are too sensitive and someone could test positive for COVID, even if they weren’t infectious.
The CDC director said that PCR tests are too sensitive and could return a positive even after someone is no longer contagious, and that rapid antigen tests could be unreliable in later stages of infection.
‘We know it performs really well during that period where you’re initially infected, but the FDA has not at all looked at whether … your positive antigen really does correlate with whether you’re transmissible or not,’ she told CBS Mornings.
Walensky explained that even if someone tests negative with an antigen test after five days of isolation, the CDC would still urge them to wear a mask to prevent possible spread.
I am looking forward to reporting on even more reversals to COVID policies, which will bring the establishment media, bureaucrats, and politicians in line with my projections and recommendations . . . made in March 2020.

The woman — a professor at joke leftist school UMass/Amherst — is an adherent of the Elizabeth Warren “Wreckers & Hoarders” school of economics, which consists of blaming all inflation caused by big-spending Democrat plans on Powerful Corporate Consortiums fixing prices to gouge “the little guy.”
Like “Big Supermarket” fixing food prices.
It’s a plainly Soviet notion — when our policies result in unintended consequences which we were repeatedly, and repeatedly, and even more repeatedly warned about, just execute even more authoritarian market interventions to punish market actors until they paper over all of our mistakes for us. Or we’ll throw them in jail if they don’t. At least in that case, we’ll have scapegoats for a show trial.
I don’t know where this one came from. Disregard, please.
Were you hacked?
Tomahawked, I think.
Seriously people before you buy into the propaganda do your own homework. The Alphabet bureaucracy has lied from day one.
I predict the next 365-days will be filled with a great deal of backpedaling from the media, bureaucrats, and politicians on a number of different policies that have been pushed as “expert” pandemic guidance.
Highly unlikely. Recall that the Joseph Goebbels did absolutely no backtracking whatsoever on the Russia Hoax. Instead, they simply stopped mentioning it.
Furthermore, Communist politicians are addicted to the totalitarian powers they have enjoyed for nearly two years. If you think of the Wuflu as a religious experience and the ongoing “pandemic” response as a theocracy complete with religious symbols (masks), state-mandated religious worship (lockdowns, vaccinations), and punishment for blasphemers (job loss, imprisonment), the two the last two years make sense. Under this theocracy the Communists used “ballot harvesting”, mass voting by mail, and dodgy vote counting to seize power. Why would they give up the theocratic system that did this?
Far from “declare victory and go home” I fully expect the Communists to double down and expand the reach of the Wuflu theocracy.
I’ve come to the same conclusion. Unconstitutional elections have consequences. So, unless or until there is prosecution, then execution, of these wicked covistan bureaucrats, and their political enablers, for their crimes against humanity, they will only double-down this year until we are Australia, complete with medical apartheid concentration camps.
Remember the J6-ers!
NONE of this information is new, and most of it was known by March of last year.
Way too many ‘conservatives’ were willing to go along with this insane bullshit, despite warnings from people like myself. Way too many people ARE STILL WEARING FUCKING CLOTH MASKS and acting like the 6 foot ‘social distancing’ was anything other than a number they pulled out of their asses.
I’ll tell you one good thing from the masks: they cut down on catching colds.
Of course, they are destroying our national psyche and aiding in the fascists in our COMPLETELY corrupted federal governmen in their quest to smash freedom.
But do you notice you haven’t gotten a cold?
No. Since I left New England over 20 years ago, I’ve had maybe three colds. So I can’t miss something I rarely suffer from anyway.
The Cult Covidians panicked so many people that I’m sure thousands of common colds were counted as “the COVID” by their sufferers.
What I have noticed is that almost nobody in America got “the flu” for the past two years (graph from Scientific American, so “Let’s Go, Snopes”).
The MSM handwaves this as “COVID washing, masking, and distancing precautions cut down on flu transmission.” Yeah? Than why weren’t they equally effective at cutting down on COVID transmission? Because they were humongous failures at that. And yet, they’re the same size and use the same infection vectors. (Cue Yul Brynner: “It is a puzzlement!“)
The right answer: when your doctor’s clinic gets five figures if you have COVID, and gets bupkus if you have the flu or a cold… you got the COVID, brother!
Haven’t had cold or flu since about March 2017. That’s when I added xylitol to my daily nasal rinse that I started doing years earlier for allergies. Haven’t taken an antihistamine since I started doing it for allergies…
Don’t know anyone who has said- “Gee, I haven’t had any colds of flu in the last year!”
“The flu can still be dangerous—but we do not reorient our lives around the flu.”
What you mean “we,” kemosabe? I didn’t reorient my life around this flu — the government did that to me.
“The CDC director said that PCR tests are too sensitive and could return a positive even after someone is no longer contagious,”
Again, something we were telling them over a year ago. And they damn well knew it back then, as they deliberately increased the cycle count beyond all rationality every time they had to “get Trump” and arbitrarily decreased it again every time they had to “support Biden.”
I’m not sure it’ll matter. I got a text from a friend who said he and his wife did the prc and came out negative. He’s still deathly afraid of the wuflu. I suspect there are still many, many millions still scared schiffless.
This is the link to Joe Rogans interview with Dr. Malone- it’s long but highlights the shenigans of the FDA, CDC, Fauci, and hospitals. It’s all about the money and power
