As an addendum to my
piece yesterday on the evidence for variants driving Covid surges, a comparison between India and neighbouring Bangladesh is illuminating. Once again, the curves below are the positive test rate and they are superimposed on the graphs of variant proportions over time from the
CoVariants website.
IndiaIndia has had one large surge in 2021 so far, occurring in spring and associated with the Delta variant (which was first identified there; in dark green). It has had no summer surge, and no new variant since.

BangladeshBangladesh, on the other hand, has had two peaks in 2021, a spring peak associated with the Beta variant (light red) and a summer one associated with the Delta variant.

Beta appears to have been pushed out by Delta in India during the spring, whereas Bangladesh was hit by the two variants in succession.
The presence of two peaks associated with two variants in Bangladesh, in spring and summer, contrasted with the single peak in India in spring associated with one variant, is further evidence that variants are key drivers of surges.
Identifying variants as key drivers of Covid surges does not in my view support the lockdown narrative that sees 'scariants' as reasons to maintain Covid restrictions and keep pushing endless vaccine boosters. From a sceptical point of view a big advantage of recognising that variants are key drivers of surges is that it implies that the rises and falls in infection curves are not primarily related to imposing or lifting restrictions but to the arrival of new variants and the subsequent re-establishing of herd immunity to the virus.
To illustrate, here are three U.S. states which famously lifted restrictions despite dire warnings of what would happen if they did. (Note: the curves here, from the
CDC, are for raw numbers of reported infections rather than the positive rate.)
FloridaFlorida lifted restrictions in autumn 2020 and went through the winter with no state-level restrictions. Yet its winter wave peaked and declined just like those in lockdown states. There was a small peak in the spring, but this was associated with the Alpha variant (dark red), not with the lifting of restrictions. This too declined, before the appearance in summer of a large surge associated with the Delta variant, which is now in decline.
The imposing or lifting of restrictions played no part in this pattern, which is very similar to elsewhere.

TexasTexas had a large winter wave, after which the state lifted restrictions in March, which led to no new surge. A slower decline in spring might be associated with Alpha but there is no clear peak. Come summer, however, and there is a big new surge associated with the arrival of Delta.

MississippiMississippi also lifted restrictions in March and saw no new surge, with only the slightest bump in the spring being discernible, associated with Alpha. Come summer, however, and there is a big surge associated with Delta, now in decline.

With no restrictions in place, the lifting of restrictions in these states cannot be blamed for causing the summer surges just as the imposing of restrictions cannot be credited with causing the falls. Instead, what we have are further examples of a surge occurring upon the arrival of a new variant and shortly peaking and dropping, presumably as herd immunity to that variant is established. This is very helpful for explaining the behaviour of the virus and why it has little or nothing to do with the imposing or lifting of restrictions.
If they can't isolate the Covid virus, how do they know there is a variant?
If you don't comply, who is going in and releasing the so-called variants?
All these surges and no flu. We at least we know they've isolated the different flu strains....right?
What if covid shot, combined with a later added flu shot, creates the so called variants?
In conclusion:
I've seen little to no proof of Covid or deaths, since TV isn't really allowed in hospitals to cover what's really being said. I've seen wokies and nutzies everywhere amazed at all the weird shit that's happened to them after being vaxed, and still think it's good for them. I've seen testimonials of vaxed people who have suffered from the vax.
Yet, to be honest and thinking about this rationally, Is any of this proof of anything? So stepping back two more steps, I can say 100%, I don't know anyone personally who has had covid (although Inlaw said they did and were really sick and they didn't believe in covid either but do know, although they were PCR tested, so to me could have been severe flu). I do know people who've had the shot and didn't feel well afterwards and 1 person through my wife who lost an 8 month pregnancy within a week of getting the shot. I see normal people everyday acting strangely, always trying to avoid people, at any cost. Then the herd all goes to the grocery store, of which I've seen no line ups in several months now. Surely to change now that the election is done and government moves full steam ahead to marxist facism.
Oh Canada, my home and forsaken land. No patriots, yet under our sons command. With gloomy hearts we see the fall, the once true north, strung out and no longer free, And stand under guard Oh no Canada, we stand under your guard for who? The rest of which has been so bastardized by the LGBTXYZ bastards I don't care anymore. The anthem was the anthem, it wasn't there for them to F@#$k with it. But I digress...
On TV, well, that's just talking heads or max headroom. There are bunch I can't stand seeing anymore, talking anymore or that stupid zoom on air static anymore. It makes me angry and mad, simply to have to hear any of it. It's a constant drone to a club of people whose club I no longer care about (Covid, Green, Global warming, Financial meltdown, etc). No one goes to prison for their crimes and lies and deceit, even when it's blatantly pointed out in advance or after the fact. TV truly is Tell a lie-vision, each channel used to Channel the next bit of psychological programming be it, in your face (repeatedly), subtly or subliminally. So very little to no truth other than the truth being, it's mostly lies created to deceive.
This article, like all the others posted here are coming fast and furious, from all angles. The basic tone (constantly) is oppression, control and death, except for the odd puppy story. That's not a bad comment on SOTT either. Can't imagine the shit they wade through just to post the stories we get here. It's all debbie downer stuff, a lot is programming and fear based. A lot is also just not true, but good or bad scifi. The real news is what we each can individually taste, touch, smell, see and hear first hand. We are so confined now that most can't see the once gentle, now abusive controlling hand pushing us to the brink. Satan's end game.
So lets walk the path of truth together, support each other where we can and keep the truth out there for all to see! It's gonna get darker in October, not because of the time change, but because it's Satan's month. Be aware, don't take things for granted and try not to be deceived or to deceive. :ets face it, there is enough of that going on.
So to all my fellow SOTT comment folks, one of my last, hopefully untainted real people, if any of you are truly real (I hope so!), in these truly strange days, possibly our last of days. I want to thank you for....just being there, real or not. Thanks for sharing and most importantly, thanks for listening. Unfortunately and fortunately, 2000+years in the future, there will be nothing to be dug up, except maybe some silicone, plastics and dust. No words. It's meant to (and better) be that way. Who would want to really know about this shit show in the future.
God Bless you All!
