COVID-19 ... how we cope :)

[Dilip Panjwani]

I have a suspicion that literally doing nothing would have been better than the net of all the things that governments did to combat the pandemic.

That holds true in non-pandemic times also...

[Neil Frarey]

That's interesting. :)

My point though is that governments closed parks, recreation centres, gyms, etc. but kept open places to get junk food, fast food, etc. I'm thinking the percentage of the population that is now morbidly obese has gone up, not down, during a pandemic where one of the greatest risk factors is ... being morbidly obese.

That was my thinking too when I created this graphic ...



... Pandemic Pawn in Nov. 2021

It is seeming to me that The New World Order (NWO), also called the Great Reset, is emerging as a most concerning direction for the globe, along with climate change and world health (COVID-19).

Do CT'ers think it should now become it's own separate Non-chess topic? I, personally, think it is a critical issue for the globe's future, and will affect all aspects of human life.

If so, I'd be willing to start the new thread.

But I think there are others posting in this thread who are likely more knowledgeable on this topic than yours-truly.

Let me know whether a new separate thread is a good idea.

Dear friends and foes of Stilum Curiae, we offer for your attention this important talk by Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò at the event sponsored by Medical Doctors for Covid Ethics International. Happy reading and circulation.

“… Just in the past few days, at the G-20 Bali summit, Klaus Schwab instructed heads of government – almost all coming from the Young Global Leaders for Tomorrow program of the World Economic Forum – about the future steps to be taken in view of establishing a world government. The president of a very powerful private organization with enormous economic means exercises undue power over world governments, obtaining their obedience from political leaders who have no popular mandate to subject their nations to the delusions of power of the elite: this fact is of unprecedented gravity.

Klaus Schwab said: “In the fourth industrial revolution, the winners will take it all, so if you are a World Economic Forum first mover, you are the winners” (here). These very serious statements have two implications: the first is that “the winners will take it all” and will be “winners” – it is not clear in what capacity and with whose permission. The second is that those who do not adapt to this “fourth industrial revolution” will find themselves ousted and will lose – they will lose everything, including their freedom.

In short, Klaus Schwab is threatening the heads of government of the twenty most industrialized nations in the world to carry out the programmatic points of the Great Reset in their nations. This goes far beyond the pandemic: it is a global coup d’état, against which it is essential that people rise up and that the still healthy organs of states start an international juridical process. The threat is imminent and serious since the World Economic Forum is capable of carrying out its subversive project, and those who govern nations have all become either enslaved or blackmailed by this international mafia….”

1. Calling others who believe differently from oneself as conspiracists is not warranted.

Sometimes, it is. Especially here, on Chesstalk.

2. During my training in critically reviewing 'Science', by the experts at the National Cancer Institute of Canada, I was shown how & why many 'scientific' publications, especially those sponsored by big-pharma (and nowadays most of them are sponsored by big-pharma in Medicine), have such major flaws that you cannot believe in what they say... The way big pharma has taken control of 'Science' nowadays, I fear that such teachers would now be 'scared' to criticize their publications, lest they get sacked for doing so...

What the article failed to state is that obese or not asymptomatic transmission is rare and is never a driver of pandemics. This has been known since November of 20020, and despite this, lockdowns and masking were heavily promoted and still are in many uninformed quarters.

Post-lockdown SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid screening in nearly ten million residents of Wuhan, China

"There were no positive tests amongst 1,174 close contacts of asymptomatic cases."

Are you/the Discover writer implying that being right-wing is being untrustworthy?
