The Race to Win Covidfinity

– July 27, 2021

“It doesn’t much matter what the future ‘threat’ will look like, or how damaging the Delta or Epsilon variants currently seem. I’m afraid of Omega, the last letter of the Greek alphabet. Though, I don’t think it’ll be a string of a pretty lame coronavirus, but something considerably worse.” ~ Joakim Book

– July 27, 2021

“The doors have, sadly, been thrown wide open to psychic healing and alternative wellness gibberish.

No Science Is Ever Settled

– July 22, 2021

“If you think science is when people of authority agree, you’re not just naïve but heavily deluded. Stop venerating science in the singular and start embracing its core, plural, and contentious ethos: that plenty of people are wrong about almost everything, all the time. Even – perhaps especially – those with lots to lose.” ~ Joakim Book

Suppression Plans Straight From CCP Play Book

– July 21, 2021

Healthy Societies Prioritize the Young

– July 1, 2021

“We required children and young adults not just to put their lives on hold, but to mortgage their futures, when a system of focused protection like that advocated in the Great Barrington Declaration would likely have achieved better outcomes at much lower cost to the young.

“Ultimately, these early findings reinforce the core difficulty that policy planners face.
