New rules aimed at moving South Koreans toward "living with COVID-19" came into effect on Monday, with the easing of a range of curbs and the introduction of vaccine passports at high-risk venues such as gyms, saunas and bars.

The switch of focus comes as more than 75% of the country's population has been fully vaccinated. The first phase of the revised rules is due to last for a month, with plans to scrap all restrictions by February.
"The return path to everyday life, to which we're taking the first step today, is a path we've never been on," Health Minister Kwon Deok-cheol told an intra-agency COVID-19 meeting.
He asked people to keep wearing masks, regularly ventilate rooms and get a test if symptoms emerge, noting that there are still concerns about a potential resurgence of new cases due to risk factors such as unvaccinated people, future declines in immunity among the vaccinated, and year-end gatherings.


Comment: All the data shows that vaccinated people have a much bigger virus load than unvaccinated. The statement that healthy unvaccinated people spread the virus is pure propaganda, not scientific fact.


Comment: S.Korea has about 52 million people. If official number of death by Covid is 2,858, then we can calculate the death rate and it is 0.005%.
If we look at the main causes of death in S.Korea, we can see that Covid is not even among the top ten.

So why such a panic and hysteria over a virus with a 99.995% survival rate?
It looks like the goal is not to protect people from a virus but some other nefarious agenda of the PTB.

Protesters shouts slogans during a demonstration against the government enforcing of a mandatory COVID-19 vaccine pass, in Rabat, Morocco, Sunday, Oct. 31, 2021.
Protests erupted across cities in Morocco on Sunday against a coronavirus vaccine passport that is required to access indoor activities and travel.

Proof of vaccination has been mandatory since Oct. 21 for all Moroccans to enter their place of work and restaurants and for domestic and international air travel.

The North African kingdom's vaccination rate is the highest in the continent, with more than 58% of its 36 million people fully inoculated.

Comment: Protests have erupted the world over but the establishment is hellbent on enforcing vaccines on everyone it can, and the recalcitrant minority will be made to suffer for not submitting: Also check out SOTT radio's:

Oliver Berg Some of Germany's largest companies are considering plans to offer vaccinated employees and those recovered from a coronavirus infection their own cafeteria areas in the future, according to reports in the German media.

Pharmaceuticals giant Bayer, energy company Eon, and travel company Alltours are all planning separate canteens for the vaccinated, according to a report in the Rheinische Post on Monday.

In the '2G' areas for vaccinated and recovered people, employees would be allowed to eat together under completely normal conditions, while those who are not vaccinated or do not provide information about their vaccination status would have to continue to live with rules on social distancing, mask wearing and partitions during meals.

Comment: Whilst a great many people may be going along with these dystopian measures in the deluded attempt to return to a semblance of normality, their compliance is actually facilitating the dehumanization of a group of people whom the establishment wishes to form the new underclass; aka untermensch.

Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it, and one would have thought that Germans would know better: Also check out SOTT radio's:

Shanghai Disneyland shut down on Sunday after it was linked to a Covid-19 case. It announced it would be closed on Monday and Tuesday but did not say when it would reopen.
Shanghai Disneyland will remain closed until at least Tuesday after a Covid-19 case was linked to the park, with nearly 34,000 people tested before they were allowed to leave the site on Sunday.

It comes as China reported 59 locally acquired cases on Monday - a new daily high since the latest outbreak began on October 17.

The managers of Shanghai Disneyland and Disneytown, an extension of the park that includes shops and restaurants, announced at 6pm on Sunday that entry to all facilities would be immediately suspended.

Here we go... Anti-Trump Fairfax County Director of Elections tells media Virginia results may not be finished until Friday

CNN Konopasek
Scott O. Konopasek, the radical partisan director of elections for the most populated county in Virginia, recently told mainstream media outlets that the Virginia governor's race may not be decided on election day.

It appears Democrats are up to their old tricks again.

Comment: The more time between the collection of votes and the announcement of the results, the more time there is for funny business. Voting in the US cannot be trusted.

100% of Covid-19 Vaccine Deaths were caused by just 5% of the batches produced according to official government data

An investigation of data found in the USA's Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) has revealed that extremely high numbers of adverse reactions and deaths have been reported against specific lot numbers of the Covid-19 vaccines several times, meaning deadly batches of the experimental injections have now been identified.

But what's perhaps more concerning is that the "deadly" lots were distributed widely across the United States whilst other "benign" lots were sent to just a few locations.

The data used in the investigation was pulled from the publicly accessible VAERS database which can be viewed here. The Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) is a United States programme for vaccine safety, co-managed by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Oops! Ibram X. Kendi accidentally undermines his views on white privilege and systemic racism in now-deleted tweet UPDATE: Kendi doubles down

ibram x. kendi deleted tweet
Author and activist Ibram X. Kendi, who upholds the ideas that white privilege is rampant in American culture and systemic racism keeps minorities in states of oppression, shared an article on Twitter that revealed that "more than a third of white students lie about their race on college applications," according to a survey.

Kendi's comment, which he later deleted, read that "More than a third of White students lied about their race on college applications, and about half of these applicants lied about being Native Americans. More than three-fourths of these students who lied about their race were accepted."
ibram x. kendi deleted tweet

Comment: Sometimes charlatans can have a tough time keeping their stories straight, so we think we can all forgive Kendi for his momentary slip-up in exposing his ideology for the race-baiting propaganda that it is. We're sure he's learned his lesson.

UPDATE: Kendi has aggressively defended his tweet by saying everyone who criticizing it is racist. From RT:
Kendi responded by framing the ridicule as he frames everything that doesn't fit his narrative: racist. When conservative journalist Jack Posobiec pointed out on Saturday that the professor had undermined his own arguments and deleted the tweet, Kendi replied, "They lie about what I said to defend the lying of white college applicants." He ratcheted up the rhetoric on Sunday, after Posobiec bragged that he "broke Kendi," likening the journalist to a slave owner.

"His broke reference has a long history within racist structures," the professor said. "White enslavers boasted of breaking black people... The resistance never stopped then and it won't stop today."


When another observer argued that Kendi was using "broke" out of context, he likened Posobiec's tweet to violence. "A white man is attacking a black person with lies, which are violence," he said. "The black person resists. The white man keeps attacking until he declares he broke the black person. That's the context. Seek a book about slavery."

But that argument, too, seemed to flop, with observers saying Posobiec merely repeated Kendi's own statement - hardly a lie - and the professor's overheated reaction prompted the journalist to declare that he broke Kendi, as in breaking a machine. "That tweet has absolutely wrecked your grift forever," one commenter tweeted.


Kendi, who has authored several books on anti-racism and maintains a heavy schedule of speaking engagements, still wasn't giving up on his premise. "Here is their tortured line of thinking: When White applicants think they have an advantage by lying about being a person of color, then that means they do have an advantage, which then means structural racism doesn't exist," he said.

That notion flopped even with another anti-racism educator, Chloe Valdary. "I'm sorry, this makes no sense," she said. "If you can get into a college by lying and saying that you're black, then that means that being black equals a weighted advantage in this context."

The 'rumor in Rome' is that Biden pooped his pants when he met the Pope

biden and pope francis
President Biden's trip to Rome to meet the Pope ahead of the G20 was a bit messier than expected, according to unofficial media accounts. The 78-year-old president met with the Pope before heading off to meet with Italian Prime Minister Draghi and then President of France Emmanuel Macron on Friday. He then attended the G20 summit on Saturday, and finally, he is slated to attend the COP26 climate summit in Glasgow, Scotland on Sunday.

On Thursday, the Vatican created a stir by suddenly canceling the live broadcast of President Biden meeting with Pope Francis without providing an explanation. The Holy See has implemented a restrictive media environment, including bans on independent media access in certain areas of the Vatican. As the Washington Post reported on Thursday, the live broadcast was severely restricted.

This is relevant because the limited access for the media that the Vatican has imposed, attributing it to the pandemic, has created an atmosphere where rumors can go flying. The Washington Post account is worth considering before delving into whether or not a Biden 'bathroom accident' became an issue at the meeting with the Pope.

I am fully vaccinated - but Joe Biden's Covid-19 vaccine mandates are un-American, unethical and fundamentally illiberal

Joe Biden
The president has enacted mandates requiring federal employees to be fully vaccinated against Covid-19 or else be terminated from their jobs. This policy is driven more by partisan politics than concern over public welfare.

During a recent CNN presidential town hall, Anderson Cooper brought up the issue of some city workers refusing to comply with Covid-19 vaccine mandates. "I'm wondering where you stand on that," Cooper asked President Joe Biden. "Should police officers, first responders be mandated to get vaccines? And if not, should they be mandated to stay at home, let go?"

"Yes and yes," Biden answered, a response as un-American as anything any president has uttered in recent history.

Comment: Unfortunately, Mr Ritter, while not swallowing all the vaccine propaganda, has certainly imbibed a good portion of it. He unquestioningly believes mainstream statistics which are easily manipulated, with "vaccinated" and "unvaccinated" being continuously redefined. Worse, he also appears ignorant of the horrific VAERS numbers, which even with the problem of under-reporting, that the current crop of vaccines are producing unprecidented rates of injury.

Destruction of medicine? A bill to allow prescriptions by AI

On September 30, 2021, David Schweikert (R-Ariz.) introduced a bill (HR5457) that, if enacted, would qualify AI as a medical practitioner, eligible to prescribe drugs.

Whoa there. That puts the conversation about the professional sovereignty of physicians in a whole different context — and sadly, that reformist context has been there all along. Let's first look at the text of the bill. It says the following:
"To amend the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to clarify that artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies can qualify as a practitioner eligible to prescribe drugs if authorized by the State involved and approved, cleared, or authorized by the Food and Drug Administration, and for other purposes."
The part where it says "for other purposes" is interesting. What if AI determines that something is safe and effective — and it should be mandated? It's hard to debate with AI. The safe and effective thing could be a therapy, a nutritional system to fight climate change, a mental hygiene regime — anything, really. Drug prescription is just a foot in the door but the sky is the limit. And who do we sue?
