You can do what you want, visit who you will, but only those that you and they agree aren't at risk, which is most of us. Same as it ever was.

At the risk of jinxing us: sure looks and feels like early spring lately.

I now predict Biden will fulfill his term. His handlers and puppet masters, aka Barack Obama, are getting what they want. So long as that continues Slo' Joe is safe.

Althouse, I compared photos of Lake Mendota from last year on this date - ice melt taking longer, I guess?

Also looked at all of the posts from the week ending March 7 2020 - Very little mention of
Rona.

But. . . .on March 7th Democrats are about twice as likely as Republicans to say coronavirus poses imminent threat

429 Comments by Althousethians.

The following week (ending March 15 2020) - my God, I'm guessing (because I didn't do a count) that 75% of the posts were Rona related. Especially the tragedy unfolding in Italy.

Althouse - please consider doing a retrospective on how Corona unfolded on your blog a year ago and whether a particular article or highlighted tweet was prescient. . .or worthless in hindsight.

Ohio just dropped eligibility to age 60 last week and are going to 50 Thursday because the large number of appointments going unused. This is before 16 mass vaccination sites are set up statewide. The first in Cleveland will open the 17th and will vaccinate 6000/day, 7 days a week. At this rate I suspect anybody who wants a vaccination will be able to get theirs by mid-April. At that time they will be trying to convince all the antivaxxers to get their shot.

The top mark is Pneumovax in the elderly with about 70%. Pneumovax has been around for years and pneumonia is consistently a top 8 or so cause of death in the elderly but still only 70%.

I will be surprised if we hit 70% of adults getting the ronavax.

The question will be can the vaccinated (slim) majority force reopening.

My father passed away last month. We visited nearly every week during the lockdown. The trade off was the slight risk of giving him the virus and thereby possibly shortening his life by a few months versus letting him spend the last months of his life without seeing his kids and grandkids. The decision was easy, though it was made easier by the fact that he was at home instead of a nursing home.

Hubby and I got our 1st dose in a mega site 4 weeks ago (Moderna). Were due for 2nd dose today - lots of other folks got their special email, but. . . not us. Guess we will wait until next week.

Meanwhile, my teacher DIL (under 30 years old) got her 1st dose and my son - who went along with her - also got his (nice surprise). Happy for them both although they are both working from home. Meanwhile, daughter who has worked for last year in an essential "big box" store - isn't even close.

I’ve just been sitting and thinking tonight about how for the past YEAR - our government has literally enslaved most of the population to fear, while it knowingly killed the elderly, stripped us of our ability to worship and bury said elderly, while they had 7 funerals for George Floyd and Elijah Cummings.

It's not as easy to get as it should be IMHO. I'm "only" 60, but managed to get pneumonia twice in my 50s, and I'm like: Hey, give me the dang shot! But my PA just says: "Having had pneumonia is not an indication for getting the vaccine".

Let the sun shine in.
Many of anti-vaxers have had covid - there have been 28.8 million identified covid cases. And 60 million Americans have had at least one dose of vaccine - 59% of those over 65 have had one dose. So 88 million Americans have reason to feel safe reopening the country. And it's getting warm. .gov says July 4th or maybe next year to unlock. And .gov, President Joe Biden and Dr. Jill Biden, they all know what's best. But ... it's getting warm and sunny in Wisconsin. Sunny - you know what that does to people in Wisconsin?

I've had one family member who has died with COVID. Note I said "with," not "of." It probably was due to the virus, but then again, he was 96 years old and already declining.

He had refused to stay home, so he was out and about. I'm sure that if perchance the virus did shorten his life, he was happy to make the trade off. The freedom to actually HAVE a life was more important than a potential few extra months in home confinement before he would have succumbed to something else anyway.

As I just said, the Vax Nazis are pushing for continued lockdowns for the vaxed.

The vaxxers, I suppose, are in denial of preexisting immunity, and naturally acquired immunity, which was in part due to treatments that mitigate disease progression and complemented immune system function. Vaccines, similarly, prime the immune system and are part of a risk management protocol, which was subverted through intuitive science, political maneuvering, and spreading social contagion through the press, social platforms, and steering engines. That and collateral damage, not only at Planned Parent/hood where at least in the early part of the pandemic, there were recorded excess deaths on year over year basis that isolate attribution.

That said, there is preliminary reporting of all causes mortality, and other than Planned Parent/hood venues in Democrat districts, social contagion driving herd stampedes and cross-contamination, asymptomatic fecal transmission in unsanitary environments, and restrictive mandates justified through intuitive science prolonging/expanding exposure and forcing collateral damage, the number of dead would have been counted in the thousands with early treatment (e.g. HCQ cocktail), and less given treatments with greater efficacy discovered in Spring and established by Summer (e.g. Ivermectin protocol).

The chance of death by automobile is about 1 percent. I would expect that the lockdowns saved many more lives from auto accident than from the Covid, but I've read that auto accident deaths are actually up because the lack of traffic provides for much faster driving.

It goes back at least to the infamous "Fuhrman tapes" during the OJ trial. Off the top of my head, I can think of Donald Sterling, Paula Deen, and Hulk Hogan who suffered major career consequences for either having used or admitted to have using in the past the "n-word." Never mind the routine rummaging through social media accounts looking for years-old "problematic" statements that can be used against people.

It's always important to remember that anti-racism is not about helping blacks. It's about controlling whites. It is the epitome of white liberal self-centeredness, making the advancement of blacks dependent on the enlightenment of whites. From their perches in elite universities, wealthy gentrified neighborhoods, and corporate boardrooms, the Deplorables are perceived as little different than neo-Nazi KKK Grand Wizards whose racism is to blame for black underperformance. African-Americans and Deplorables have more in common and more convergent interests than either does with white urban liberals.

The lockdowns had/have ZERO effect on the risk of death if one gets COVID. It is a simple equation of number of deaths divided by number of confirmed cases.

While the anger is completely understandable, what I'd like to ask this person (and anybody else) is why haven't they been pissed for the last 30 years? We've been on the same trajectory over that timeframe. It's a good example of the futility of excessive partisanship. Newt Gingrich, Rush Limbaugh, Bill Clinton, Al Gore, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama are all neoliberals. It is the dominant economic ideology globally.

It is not a left/right, Democrat/Republican, liberal/conservative, socialist/capitalist divide. But that dichotomy is very useful to the establishment because it allows each party to scapegoat the other. Neoliberalism has been a bipartisan affair from the start. It begins in the Carter administration, it accelerates in the Reagan administration, and it produced the DLC/New Democrat/Third Way realignment. There's a reason the two candidates the establishment hated most were Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders.

Since the very beginning of the covidiocy we've known that low Vitamin blood levels correlated with poor outcomes in the dreaded covid. In fact, if you do an internet search on Vitamin D and URIs of all kinds, including TB, low Vitamin D levels are correlated with poor outcomes in every URI known to man- or woman for the PC in the crowd.

Now, it's verified, not by anonymous internet commenters- but by actual science. At the end of the link, from real life doctors and medical researchers:

Conclusion
Vitamin D deficiency markedly increases the chance of having severe disease after infection with SARS Cov-2. The intensity of inflammatory response is also higher in vitamin D deficient COVID-19 patients. This all translates to increase morbidity and mortality in COVID-19 patients who are deficient in vitamin D. Keeping the current COVID-19 pandemic in view authors recommend administration of vitamin D supplements to population at risk for COVID-19

My last checked Vitamin D level is 60 ng/ml. I've had close contact with 2 people with the dreaded covid- and haven't gotten it. I also do other things to reduce my risk- useless mask wearing gestures not being among them.

Dr. Fauci didn't recommend D, the CDC didn't recommend D, other health authorities didn't recommend D, but not that Trump is out of office and being persecuted (not a typo) by NY persecutors, here comes a study that says- "Hey! Your risks go down if your vitamin D goes up! Take Vitamin D!" Something that anyone and everyone with any understanding of numbers knew over a year ago.

You're responsible for your health and the risks you take. Not me, not your doctor, not Dictator Cuomo nor Puppet Biden, not Dr. Fauci. YOU! If you believe the lie that mask wearing helps, go ahead, wear one. Forcing me to wear one, especially as the weather warms, is increasingly irritating me- and people like me- to no end.

As mentioned in comments the other day, sole responsibility for all dreaded covid deaths belongs to the Communist Chinese government. But it is more and more apparent that the medical establishment has failed in every way possible to reduce the number of those deaths. Assisted by such experts as Dictator Cuomo, who apparently desired to maximize the death rate amongst the elderly.

Mutaman म्हणाले...

"Dr. Fauci didn't recommend D,"

Wrong again!

"If you're deficient in vitamin D, that does have an impact on your susceptibility to infection,” said Dr. Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. “I would not mind recommending, and I do it myself, taking vitamin D supplements.”

Line 2 "this exact word or phrase: vitamine D
I left the rest black.

16 Jun 2020 I'm not worried about dying if I catch it. I'm also not worried about catching it. If I do I do, if I don't I don't. Why aren't I worried? My Vitamin D last checked is 40 ng/ml. I've slightly increased my D intake since then.

15 Jul 2020 So- Vitamin D. I live in CNY. So, if I weren't taking Vitamin D supplements, I'd be D deficient. You're in Wisconsin- same problem. DO you take Vitamin D supplements? Do you know your Vitamin D blood level? Low Vitamin D is directly associated with worse outcomes in virtually all serious URIs- including TB. (Among things I learned during the covidiocy.)

20 Jul 2020 Take your vitamin D daily, along with vitamin K, and go about your life.

11 Dec 2020 I know my vitamin D level, I take supplements, added extra zinc once a week, my multi has the MDR. Added quercetin. That’s the only extra precaution I've taken.

On 19 Dec 2020 I didn't mention it, but Mary Beth said "I will still wear a mask and try to keep distance between myself and others when I'm out. I'll still keep taking Vitamin D and zinc." and mockturtle said " There are variables that make us more or less susceptible, like blood type, Vitamin D levels and strength of immune system."

23 Jun 2020 4. Having a healthy Vitamin D blood level (Note- not from this post- that was right after giving blood, and my dreaded covid antibody test was negative. 26Feb was my 2nd donation this year- still negative)

6 Mar 2021 Maybe it's my Vitamin D blood level of 60 ng/ml protecting me, along with the fact my multi has the MDR of zinc.

20 Dec 2020: Low vitamin D blood levels seem to be a great indicator of adverse outcomes if you get the dreaded covid. I’ll bet if body zinc levels were checked the same correlation would exist.

So I've been very consistent over the covidiocy about what you can do to protect yourself. Not just on the Althouse blog, but on facebook and disqus and other places. And now as per my post above, doctors and medical experts are finally saying- "Hey, everyone should be supplementing with Vitamin D!" All you have to do is understand numbers to have drawn that conclusion a year ago.

I can sum up what I've said about masks. Not only are they virtually useless against viruses. Not only that, but if you're a mask wearer and exposed to virus or bacteria then wear a mask, you increase your own personal virus load ultimately making you sicker, or even sick to begin with, since with a lower viral load your body may shake whatever you were exposed to off. That's how filters work- flow one way traps things, reverse the flow, it released them. Breathe out, the breath initially hits the mask, some air goes through, the rest escapes through the edges. Breathe in- the mask is sucked against your face, most air comes in through the mask, less through the edges, and everything that just stuck to the mask comes rushing back in. Well, not everything, but a substantial portion.

I just did myself. I'm sure there are some here who would do this to Inga or Chuck and quote them over the year.

Mutaman- that was in September, well after the covidiocy began. And read the weasel wording- HE DID NOT RECOMMEND TAKING VITAMIN D! And I quote: “I would not mind recommending, and I do it myself, taking vitamin D supplements.” Does he say how much? Does he say YOU SHOULD TAKE IT? No, he does nothing of the sort. and I'm sure next you'll point out the extremely wide audience instagram live with Jennifer Garner has.

Has he held a national press conference where he's recommended taking supplements? No. Published a paper on taking supplements? No. Sent out a press release to all the MSM saying "We officially recommend the general public start supplementing with Vitamin D in the following dosages and doctors should monitor their patient's vitamin D levels on a routine basis? No. He offhandedly said, I would not mind recommending and then utterly failed to do so or give any information on how much or how often to take. Defending Dr Fauci and his covidiocy handling and recommendations is an exercise in futility.

Gospace म्हणाले...

From the National Institute for Health on vitamin recommendations:

Should I Take a Dietary Supplement?
Eating a variety of healthy foods is the best way to get the nutrients you need. However, some people don’t get enough vitamins and minerals from their daily diet, and their doctors may recommend a supplement. Dietary supplements may provide nutrients that might be missing from your daily diet.

Talk with your doctor before taking any supplements. Some supplements can change how medicines you may already be taking will work. If your doctor recommends a dietary supplement for you, make sure you’re getting the brand recommended by the doctor and that you take it as directed.

Do you wonder if you need a dietary supplement? Maybe you do, but usually not.


That's our government- you probably don't need supplements! In the northern tier of states everyone who doesn't take Vitamin D supplements during the winter will be deficient in Vitamin D. Period. Unless perhaps you drink a crapload of milk which is Vitamin D fortified. Oh, wait! They also recommend you not drink a crapload of milk! Even tasteless skim, which is what they recommend you drink. I drink a pint each day. Of good wholesome whole milk.

Can we conclude that Dr. Fauci withheld information that probably would have mitigated the mortality rate from the virus? Not to mention the CDC's recommendations for HCQ, no masks/masks/ double masks?
