I wonder when the VA will mandate masks again, it hasn't been that long since they got rid of them. My next appointment is in September, so they'll probably require them by then. Yuck.

Now running for Emperor.
So how many will go along with it this time around?
I live in the greater Puget Sound area; there are plenty of folks who never stopped wearing a face diaper around here. The density of masks increases as you get closer to Seattle, but I still see the occasional driver out here in the foothills who is masked-up while they are alone in their car.

Watching the methodical increase in "Concern Stories" surrounding the looming doom from this year's strain of Rice Rabies, I begin to ponder just how badly the hysteria is going to hit by the time we finally get to Flu season.

From my knothole, it sure looks like those who stay up-to-date with their "boosters" are only getting more and more prone to worse and worse bouts of the Shanghai Shivers each time it comes around. I might not be an award-winning immunologist, but that whole Vaccine Acquired Immune Deficiency argument seems to be gathering a ton of credibility.

Let's not mention one of my friend's (athletic) teenage sons coming down with Myocarditis "out of the blue" this week.

More and more people here on the wet side of Oregon are masking up. Aunt and Uncle in Central Oregon both have it. Sigh.

My mother cannot take the flu shot because she has a bad reaction ... turns into bronchitis every single time she has ever had it. We moved them to Tampa and upon hearing the correlation I told her to then stop getting the damn shot. She hasn't had bronchitis since then and she had flipping COPD from second hand smoke. Duh!

My dad freaked out over covid because of my mother's COPD (so he says) and made such a big noise despite my repeated fight backs that mom went along with it and they got the J&J. My father's health has deteriorated since then but it could just be circumstantial because he was already sliding. The skin cancer and bladder cancer bother me but again, I can't correlate it to the vax.

That said, I finally have my mother positively refusing any boosters or vaccines. And my dad can't get any at the moment due to the recent cancers. They rarely go anyplace but mom may use a mask but she does that occasionally anyway depending on air quality issues (COPD is legit).

But I can tell you if this crap starts up again there is going to be some righteous fight back in the Hen House. We didn't wear the damn face diapers. I walked right into wally world without one and they managers eventually just said to ignore me as they had better things to do. I never bothered with those stupid arrows on the floor. And I freely laughed at people when they became anally tight over the fact I wouldn't play their stupid cattle chute games. I was frequently heard to go "Mooo!" at them when they tried to whine about it.

I will say I almost got thrown out once until I made them play by their own rules asking them how they knew that I wasn't excused under the law that said they couldn't ask me how or what said I didn't have to wear their stupid masks.

Still hacks me off to remember it. But on the other hand I heard a bunch of people started doing it at the store and that's when the managers said to stop their harassing routine cause it backfired on them.

Sometimes you have to be prepared to do more than just say no.

Well, Hollywood was known for being a propaganda machine in WW2.

Also, they’ve been pushing the covid booster in commercials a lot lately and now the tv news stations are doing stories on when the boosters will be rolled out.

The new shots are for covid, flu and RSV.

They had a graph for ages and what to get.

I’m not sure but I think it my be all in one shot? V

A Startling Discovery Concerning COVID-19 in the Federal Government Spending Database

@nataliegwinters warns that global elites want to reinstitute COVID-19 lockdowns and mask mandates. She tells Steve Bannon she's seen an uptick in multi-million dollar contracts coming from the VA and the Department of Defense to various entities, specifically for COVID-19 equipment. Some grants are set to start this fall and run all the way to 2028.

The first go-round was just a trial run. Trying to figure out how far they can go, what people will do or not do and for how long; how effective their jabs are; how many they can take out at a time. They have now had time to study all of those results are are ready for round 2. Buckle up folks, this is going to be a bumpy ride!

Documents recently obtained from the National Institutes of Health suggest public health officials used inaccurate information and misrepresented medical research to advance their policy objective that masks prevent severe COVID-19 and virus transmission—despite opposing scientific evidence received from experts.

In a recently obtained letter (pdf) sent in November 2021 to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), top epidemiologist Michael Osterholm, director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota, and seven colleagues informed the agency it was promoting flawed data and excluding data that did not reinforce their narrative.

The letter warned the agency that misrepresenting data on trusted websites such as the CDC and the COVID-19 Real-Time Learning Network—jointly created by the CDC and Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA)—would “damage the credibility of science,” endanger public trust by “misrepresenting the evidence,” and give the public “false expectations” masking would protect them from the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19.

“We believe the information and recommendations as provided may actually put an individual at increased risk of becoming infected with SARS-CoV-2 and for them to experience a serious or even life-threatening infection,” Mr. Osterhom wrote.

The authors urged the IDSA to remove the suggestion that masking prevents severe disease from its website and asked the CDC to reconsider its statements about the “efficacy of masks and face coverings for preventing transmission of SARS-CoV-2.”

Osterholm also noted a pattern of selectively choosing data that supported the desired narrative that masks prevent severe COVID-19 disease and transmission—claims he said are unsupported by the scientific evidence provided by the CDC and IDSA on their websites.

The IDSA “Masks and Face Coverings for the Public” webpage appears to “focus on the strengths of studies that support its conclusions while ignoring their shortcomings of study design,” Mr. Osterholm wrote. “Studies that do not support its perspective are similarly downplayed.”

The COVID-19 Real-Time Learning Network was created in 2020 to share “accurate, timely information about COVID-19.” According to its website, the IDSA’s editorial team of infectious disease and public health experts synthesize clinical guidance, identify emerging scientific consensus and areas of ongoing uncertainty, and tackle “misconceptions and disinformation.”

Although partly funded by the CDC, the IDSA collaborates with numerous medical professional organizations that publish medical journals and make recommendations based on agency guidance, including the American Academy of Family Physicians, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the American College of Physicians, the Society of Critical Care Medicine, the Society for Healthcare Epidemiology of America, and the Society of Infectious Diseases Pharmacists.

The letter was sent to CDC officials, the associate medical and associate digital editors of the COVID-19 Real-Time Learning Network, and IDSA board members, which included Dr. Rochelle Walensky, the former director of the CDC during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Experts Ask CDC and IDSA to Address ‘Serious Errors’ on Website​

In his letter to the CDC, Mr. Osterholm asked the CDC and IDSA to address the “serious errors” published on its website regarding the efficacy of masks as soon as possible and strongly urged the IDSA to remove the suggestion that masking prevents severe COVID-19 from its website and a podcast where such “irresponsible claims were made.”
Furthermore, Mr. Osterholm recommended the IDSA reconsider statements about the efficacy of masks and coverings for preventing SARS-CoV-2 transmission, noting the IDSA’s website falsely suggests evidence of mask efficacy has strengthened throughout the pandemic.
“We do not agree that the evidence for their efficacy has strengthened throughout the pandemic, as the website suggests,” Mr. Osterholm said. “In fact, contrary to the conclusion on this website, the November 2020 Cochrane Review cited states this: ‘Compared with wearing no mask, wearing a mask may make little to no difference in how many people caught a flu-like illness (9 studies; 3,507 people); and probably makes no difference in how many people have flu confirmed by a laboratory test (6 studies; 3,005 people).'”
Osterholm said he and his colleagues are not “anti-mask” but wanted to see a more careful scientific review of the data showing the role masks may play in preventing SARS-CoV-2 transmission. They offered to help the IDSA update its review of the science. Instead, the IDSA and CDC modified their website to promote masking, stating: “Masking is a critical public health tool for preventing the spread of COVID-19, and it is important to remember that any mask is better than no mask.”
The letter was part of documents obtained through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) by The Functional Government Initiative (FGI), an organization dedicated to “improving the American public’s awareness about the officials, decisions, and priorities of their government.”
“The story of official masking guidance should trouble the American public. Recall that Dr. Fauci at first said there was no need for masks. The cloth masks were all that stood between you and COVID. But as evidence against cloth masks appeared, the premiere scientific health organizations dug in their heels and refused to follow the science or listen to their trusted outside advisors,” FGI said in a statement (pdf).
“That Dr. Osterholm and his colleagues felt compelled to raise concerns about cherry-picked data and the danger it presented to the credibility of public health officials and the health of the public says that something was deeply dysfunctional in these agencies,” FGI stated.
The Epoch Times contacted the CDC for comment but did not receive a response.

Part of telling the truth is calling things by their right names.
They're "obedience muzzles". We're supposed to obey and shut up/not ask questions.

I'm a member of a large country-wide nursing group on Facebook. They are saying that hospitals across the country are mandating them again. Lots of sentiment that they don't mind masking, but they'll never take another shot.
