A new study from the National Bureau of Economic Research, cited in The Australian and in a New York Times op-ed today, reveals over 170,000 non-Covid excess deaths among young Americans in 2020 and 2021, most likely attributable to measures implemented to combat the coronavirus—i.e., deaths by lockdown.
Nice succinct summary, Michael, but I feel you're a bit too hands-off in expressing appropriate outrage. Our leaders killed these 200,000 young people as surely as if they had shot them with a gun. This is mass murder at the largest scale. And it was entirely predictable -- indeed, it was predicted by many objectors early on. I called the pandemic and lockdown policies "the Left's 9/11," and called out the massively misled thinking that resulted in lockdowns, in April of 2020. I was not alone, of course, but we really need to push for the new GOP-led Congress to hold hearings on this after the elections. Or even start now with minority-led hearings. If we don't yell to high heaven about these quantified deaths we are not going correct the record or change public health policies to avoid the inevitable repeat of these policies with the next bug that comes along, or the next or the next.
I read a few articles of how post deliverers found people not responding, dead in their homes, during the lockdowns. Others found people suddenly gone without a warning, probably all dead. Loneliness can kill. You don't even have to insert any conspiracy theory to admit that lockdowns are bad for everyone (except maybe Amazon etc. who probably sold much more)
Stop using Amazon they are a monopoly ignoring payent laws and the largest seller of Chicom crap. You can beat their so called deals online if you just look
As well as attacking and de-platforming anyone who dared to suggest that we adopt a sensible approach to COVID, our leaders here in the UK spent over half a billion of our money pushing lockdowns and other NPIs. Half a billion buys you a hell of a lot of public support.
First, politicians want to improve their own personal lives. People need to be really naive to believe that politicians want to make the country a better place. So anyone with the minimum of critical thinking needs to look past *any* type of government propaganda.
In any case, it is absolutely not a valid excuse to say "I was drunk", "I was angry", or "I fell for government propaganda" when your decision ends up killing someone else. Those are not valid excuses for any crime, in fact.
Some of the people who supported it, though, were acting on fake information. We cannot underestimate the scope of the propaganda, and censorship of information. If I had believed what I was hearing from the MSM, and big tech, I might have been just as compliant, out of fear...which was stoked EVERY day, all day long. Still is. Many of the people who were supporting them, are no longer supporting them (as more of the truth, and those telling it, are unable to be stopped.
You don't really believe that this is a valid excuse, right? Imagine that you are not the person giving this excuse, but the one receiving it: "Hey, sorry that I helped the people who killed your kid/mother/other relative. But you know what? I was very afraid. The government said something that really frightened me... And you know how it is, right? See you!"
I know that some people are just reckless. But these people should know what they are and not participate in any form of public debate. Just as a drunk person should not drive a car.
I have felt the sort of outrage you mentioned since mid 2020, when I could see that deaths building here in Thailand from the lockdowns, which went through the roof for multiple causes, suicides for example were off the charts, and urban poor locked up in their slum homes without income were starving to death. And the longer the restrictions went the worse it all became.
So you are right that it is mass murder. And if you expand that out to 193 countries what number do we get. It is unimaginable, and runs into the millions, perhaps tens of millions. And the life years lost by shortening lives is hundreds of millions.
And all through 2021 I watched in horror as the vaccine mandates came for everyone, and the vaccine deaths and injured were gaslighted by the government, the medical profession, and the media. I live near 3 hospitals, in a condo on the 40th floor, and during the mass vaccine drive in Bangkok the sound of ambulances went all hour, every hour all day, and it nearly sent me insane, they only went quiet in the last 2 months.
Prior to the max vax, we'd have been lucky to hear 2 or 3 in a given day. It was up to 5-8 an hour every day for nearly a year. First shot, second shot, booster shot, fourth shot. Madness.
I got super frustrated at the censorship and the inability to say anything that would contribute to stopping the madness. I tried - on Facebook, YouTube and Medium - I got deplatformed from Medium, warned countless times on YouTube until they hid my account in a dark hole, and censored a dozen times and locked out of my account on Facebook multiple times.
Finally I discovered Substack, and it is a breath of fresh air - but doesn't have the organic reach the other platforms had when free speech was not infringed on. And for my first viral post on an Australian police officer who quit and spoke out against our governments Covid insanity - it spread like crazy for ten days and was up to nearly 30k views, and then it fell off a cliff. Literally it just stopped. And my page has crawled ever since. I don't know how they do it, but they are censoring us on Substack too. Or at least slowing us down.
I tell you all this so you know that I am someone who is utterly outraged about the genocide taking place, and everything about the Covid fascist war on humanity. I have lost 3 friends to the vax, and kept track of all family and friends who have been hurt or know someone that has. That list is now up to 35 deaths and over 100 injuries. Before the vax I knew exactly no one who had Covid or died. And I know dozens of people who have been bankrupted.
As a result of this brutality and in order to get over the anger and constant depression I felt through most of 2021, and the rage I felt at what the policies had done to my personal life and my own professional income pre-Covid which simply vanished, I realized we are in a world war, a fascist hybrid war the likes of which we have never seen. I said to myself that in war people die. And that while I tried to save friends and family, and some listened and others did not, then I had to accept that they made their decisions, and I have to accept that these people are dying and being hurt. If I get outraged about it every time I lose the ability to function. And I compared the sounds of the ambulance sirens to the sounds of bombs raining on London during WW2 - I say to myself "the bombs are falling" - so you have to dodge the bombs and get on with your life and fight back the best you can.
So this is part of what keeps me going, functioning, and fighting - the bombs are falling and we must keep on keeping on.
I think that Michael has long known the devastation of the entire policy playbook of Xi Jinping for Covid-19, (I wrote about how Xi claims it for himself in the article below)
But we have to face the death and destruction and keep ourselves sane and keep fighting.
In writing his book, the first on the market that clearly spells it out that Xi Jinping shut down the world - and in turning up on the page here to write incessantly turning out more articles every week that shines a light on the evil of both Red Fascism and Western Fascism, the global fascist alliance attacking humanity, Michael is doing the best he can, and doing a great job of it in my view.
Ingrid, thanks for that too. Yes these Marxist-Fascists want us to go insane. That is part of the psychological war they are waging. I feel honoured you'd save my comment thank you again. Stay sane - now there's a good t-shirt slogan. :)
Spartacus - thanks for the compliment. I am very glad you liked my words. And yes staying sane in an insane world is our challenge. Keep safe - survive, strive and thrive again.
But that is always the case. A wise man once said “It rains on the “good (or normal)” and the “bad (or neurotic)” but the “good” get wet because the “bad” steal their umbrellas.” Very few have the courage to rise to the challenge. It is easier to “sing a little louder.”
I had similar thoughts comparing my experiences of the last few years to a war in order to make some sense of it. I read accounts of other periods in history were entire continents were caught up in a sort of mass psychosis. In a strange way it brought me consolation to see that this was "just" another episode, only difference being that I had a front row seat. Ultimately I decided stop mourning the loss of the world as I knew it before, and simply accept the challenges as they come. I recalibrated whatever expectations I had of my life, and decided to focus on survival as it's own reward.
Yes, we have to accept it, and recalibrate - and survive. Lol. I say to myself most days and have for a long time "I have to survive, I have to strive, and I will thrive again.' :)
Agreed and I wasn't meaning to be critical of Michael -- his work is laudable and amazing. I am also doing what I can, as a policy attorney and part-time academic, to correct things in this ongoing war, and have been spending inordinate time on these issues. It's a virus of the mind as much or more as of they body, in terms of the degree to which any thinking person has had to think about these issues in order to stay sane. https://tamhunt.medium.com/how-covid-19-stats-are-grossly-exaggerated-a-brief-summary-of-the-arguments-53a5b4237c4c
Glad to hear you doing that. I see a sea change recently. All over the world there are more and more people like yourself stepping up, focusing on the issues, and rejecting the pseudo-science. And I think this is the only way we will win. We must overwhelm the opposition. Because that is how they got us into lockdowns and 2 years of totalitarianism-which hasn't ended, just temporarily retreated while they attack us in other was (oil prices and food shortages) - they literally shouted us into lockdowns. So we need the power of the crowd to shout back.
How do you manage to talk about these issues on Medium? They blasted me off their platform last year for writing articles challenging the narratives.
Thanks for the link to your article, I'll read it. Here's one I wrote on the biggest culprit of the Covid-war......
Tam, the deaths were the point & they don’t want to correct. I’m sure they’re disappointed they didn’t kill more & are working in a lab to unleash something worse. And long term effects of the current poison are still unknown.
You're right about that. Look at the multiple (hybrid) strategies they are using to kill people today - soaring food prices, soaring energy prices - all of which leads to deaths in multiple ways - famine, slow starvation, malnutrition, conflicts, stress etc.
None of this was necessary. But Biden, the EU, and Xi (he locked down Shanghai ports and disrupted global supply chains for 3 cases) have all done this deliberately.
Because it is hybrid warfare and the aim is to kill, to maim, to injure and to destroy the will of the populations.
every single person who I talked to with a decent head on their shoulders knew this would kill untold amounts of people. It is how I lost faith in humankind.
Can anyone help me program my keyboard for automatic fill-in of "bit late to the party, ain't ya fellas?" since there's gonna be a heck of a lot of this coming...
did they include YPLL numbers? because starting from nursing home over-representation (a factor of 100 or more) and life expectancy (~1 yr on admission) each death of a young person is 100x+ as expensive in YPLL terms compared to covid death
So what. Do you think any one of our Young Global Leaders could care less about causing so many excess deaths? Not a chance. And there's nothing we can do to ensure it won't happen again. Can you say, "monkeypox?"
Thanks Michael. I have zero reason to doubt this. Isolation and solitary confinement have long been a form of punishment because they cause misery.
Have you seen this? A harrowing account of what transpired in Canada and UK and likely elsewhere in 2020. Note that some nonCovid deaths were likely reported as Covid as the true cause was too unpalatable to acknowledge
Slats - your comment about 'isolation and solitary confinement' just inspired me to write this note in my lockdowns file:
"Isolation and solitary confinement have long been a form of punishment because they cause misery" - and to break the will of people. Lockdowns were aimed at ‘non-essential’ workers and businesses – because they were the ones that are independent and not under the control of big business and political influences – so in order to force fascism they needed to destroy that which they can’t control.
They targeted their greatest opposition to global fascism with lockdowns for 'non-essential' people.
NOTE: This is a radical idea, however it is my conclusion so far on the whole COVID-19 situation. Advice to the reader, this is pure speculation, I do not have evidence to support these claims. It just fits the data that I have collected, my knowledge on the subject and my own intuition. Do not take any of these statements as fact and I am not saying this as a form of sarcasm.
In my opinion, if I am being honest, Covid deaths...
Let's make a definition first:
Covid Death = Someone who died with a SARS-CoV-2 infection as the Only Cause
As I was saying, in my opinion, Covid Deaths only happened with the original strain of SARS-CoV-2 in very limited places to very very very few people, maybe less than 1,000 people in the whole world. A number similar to SARS. [From Wiki: The 2002–2004 outbreak of SARS, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus, infected over 8,000 people from 29 countries and territories, and resulted in at least 774 deaths worldwide. ]
And my estimation may be "Extreme" for some people but... I think I am pretty much correct. The only people who died where located in the limited places where the Bioweapon was released, which again, in my personal opinion, happened in several places, maybe three to five places. This has nothing to do with China, that is nonsense to me. It had to be orchestrated in many places around the world in order for it to spread in the way that it did. However, in my opinion, again, the virulence of the Bioweapon decreases exponentially after just a few contagions. That is why the virulence of SARS-CoV-2 has been pretty close to a Bad Flu season almost from the beginning and that is why it didn't spread from Wuhan to the rest of China, hence it didn't spread from China to the rest of the world.
It is important to notice however, that the virulence of a SARS-CoV-2 infection is starting to change in the vaccinees. I recommend to follow Geert Vanden Bossche on that topic.
I personally have spent a lot of time thinking this issue through as well.
And it is my opinion that you are spot on. And in fact there is a lot of existing evidence and policy in China that backs you up.
Your definition of a Covid death is close to what it should be, and dismisses the fakery of 'died with a PCR test within 28 days' - which is scientific fraud, spread by the WHO - But China did it differently.
One of the overlooked issues regarding discussion of China's 'pandemic' is that by May 2020 China had changed the definition of a Covid death from 'died with a positive PCR test' to 'must have died with pneumonia, in the presence of SARS-CoV-2 virus proven with a lab genome sequencing test' (source Dr. Ronald B. Brown MD PHD Canada)
In fact we don't usually die of viruses when we get pneumonia. The virus creates inflammation, which creates ideal conditions for bacteria to grow, and leads to bacterial pneumonia. I am quoting from Dr. Fauci's 2008 NIH paper on reviewing cadavers from the Spanish Flu deaths, where they concluded that 97% had died of bacterial pneumonia, not the virus, and they recommended having more antibiotics on stock for pandemics. Fauci must have had a brain snap because in the era of Covid19 he hasn't mentioned this once.
More importantly Chinese doctors have been curing patients of Covid-19 from the start and said that with early treatment using HCQ they could keep 90% of people with early symptoms out of hospital, but could cure it at every stage. This was reported to the WHO-China Joint Mission in Feb 2020, and is in that report, and again in June 2020 in the Chinese white paper 'Fighting Covid-19: China in Action' -
But meanwhile Xi claimed it was lockdowns, and encouraged the WHO to spread that to the world, which they dutifully did, and he told the G20 meeting in November of 2020, (speech available online) after Biden had won, and 6 months after China's deaths from Covid-19 had flat lined (see Worldometer), to follow his lockdown doctrines and 'fight the virus.' It was pure propaganda, misdirection and intention to create global harms, because Xi knew how to cure Covid, and the anti-cures campaign and censorship was already. in full swing. So the silence on this subject condemns Xi. (and others)
So while China had returned to normal, notably the only country in the world to do so, the rest of the world in the winter of 2020-21 went into Covid madness, which ramped up with mass injections of mRNA drugs which created perhaps mutants as Bossche warned, but it also created vaccine induced Covid - a well documented phenomenon of large vaccination campaigns of creating outbreaks of the disease you are vaccinating for, which even Fauci has said publicly is a danger they have to be aware of. (measles, polio etc.)
They were spreading Covid On purpose. And I believe this is why they attacked the unvaccinated, and did their best by denying people their legal and human rights to work, to travel, etc. Because they have been spreading disease. On purpose.
It is impossible to come to any other conclusion. It is global. It is organized. It is coming from the top down. It is coming from the political left, the communists, and those behaving as fascists. They refuse to discuss anything. They refuse to consider data and science that destroys their faked pseudoscience. They are trying to ramp. up more censorship to stop information-not disinformation. Etc.
And remember China didn't use these mRNA drugs and for a long time would not let anyone who'd been injected with them into China. They also sealed themselves off. They wouldn't let their citizens leave. Why? Is it because they didn't want their citizens going out and catching mRNA spread Covid and bringing it back to China? That is the likeliest reason. So watch for when China opens the borders fully again - it is likely a signal that they think the threat of the chemical bioweapons is over.
Between a proper case definition, and early treatment, China stopped the pandemic, or rather outbreak. "Poof in May 2020 it was gone." And their graph flatlined - only country in the world to do it. And it's happening again right now with their latest Covid lockdown charades - graph is flat lining. It happens nowhere else. Ever. And it can only happen if you are curing people and defining the deaths correctly.
But they did the lockdown charades to force the world into lockdown - and Xi continues with it today even though there was not any significant numbers of Covid deaths in China in 2022 - it's political, he is attacking his enemies in Shanghai who seek to stop him being dictator for life.
Another thought that backs up your comment is expanding on your comment about decreasing virulence.. It is highly unlikely that the SARS-CoV-2 virus as sequenced in early 2020 even exists today.
It has been through hundreds of thousands of mutations, and one scientist in Europe, it might have been the late Luc Montaigner, claimed it the virus was shedding the spike proteins, which brings it back to an ordinary coronavirus. This would explain why 'Omicron' was so mild.
I would like to challenge you on your statement "this has nothing to do with China."
You are right on one that it has been orchestrated world wide, and that is evidence that China is working in cooperation with those parties - my personal opinion is that we can just call it the G20 group - because if they'd not gone into lockdowns no other country would. So the guiltiest group is the G20.
But and excuse me for being blunt, you are 100% wrong on that point that it has nothing to do with China.
It has everything to do with China as pointed out in Michael's book. If China had not played Covid charades the world would never have gone into lockdown. They did it to deceive the world. China went to Italy to help them orchestrate Covid charades there (see Michael's early article on this) - in order to frighten the world some more because up to that point it wasn't working.
And every single Covid-19 policy that turned medicine and science upside down can be tracked to China. Every single one. (see earlier mentioned papers)
And Xi today in the face of 2 years of data and research that says every policy is bullshit, he continues to rant about his zero-Covid policies saying there will be no 'living with Covid' and he'll 'smash any resistance.' He didn't say that for China - he said it for the rest of the world.
Thank you for reading my reply, I agree with most of what you say here. Regarding my statement on "this has nothing to do with China", the only thing that I meant by that is that China is not "The Orchestrator", it has been a supranational collaboration.
I agree that they pushed for Lockdowns, even now, and that they invented the concept, which is a very serious violation of The Universal Declaration of Human Rights. However, I also have to admit that there is a HUGE difference between locking down a city, no matter how big, and locking down a whole country, as they did in so many places, including my own country. And there is another thing, China did promote, Extensively in fact, Early Treatment to the international community from the beginning of the Outbreak in Wuhan. Western countries just didn't listen and they did the opposite, take a look:
From CGTN (YouTube)
Mar 15, 2020. U.S. experts say traditional Chinese medicine shows promise in treating COVID-19
So... before I make any claim like "China is responsible for the deaths in Europe, America, Australia..." Our own governments are the only ones responsible for that.
Let’s take another perspective: China, like North Korea can lockdown everybody they want in their own countries, because they are dictatorships. Nevertheless it was our own governments, the 100% responsible for the lockdowns and all the damage that has been done to us in the Western World. From another angle, Iran can literally kill people for not being Muslim enough. If the government of my country kills someone for being Christian (just as an example) it is clearly not the fault of Iran, even if they promote killing people based on their religious believes.
That was my point in relation to "it has nothing to do with China". I am not Chinese, I don't live in China, and what has happened in the Western World, is 100% responsibility of the people "leading" here, our politicians and our medical authorities. Even regarding Mr. Gates, I do not vote for him, the politicians and the medical authorities that are following him via lobbying are the ones that have to answer to me. They are the ones responsible. And I know that democracy is not working at all, but in theory this is the way it should be.
In a broader sense, of course, many countries and supranational organizations are involved in this crime, including China. And there should be a criminal investigation in an International Court of Law, 100%. Nuremberg 2.0 is needed!
Thanks for clearing up the point about your view on China.
I think you are right that each government have to take responsibility for what they did to their countries. But it has been a collective operation against humanity - I see it as a global fascist-Marxist alliance, because when I track all the players, through multiple layers it always comes back to 2 large groups - the World Economic Forum's fascist cabal, and the CCP.
Indeed I think it would be appropriate to blame the leaders of the G20 countries and the EU, because if any of them had failed to play this game it would not have worked.
And even though our leaders have shown massive corruption for foisting Covid on us all, and using China's Covid charades to do it, it would never have worked without China - And I used to be China dove, I was singing the country's praises back as early as 1994 when I first visited Shenzen as it was coming out of the rice fields.
But that is long gone. The CCP can never be forgiven for repaying the world's generosity in helping to fund the rebuilding of China, and opening up to trade with almost every country on earth, and joining the WTO, which is what allowed China to become the factory of the world and to grow rich. That the CCP has engaged in this attack on humanity, which is continuing today, is unforgivable to me. And their part must be highlighted as well, because most people miss it.
I am extremely grateful for all those links you sent to me as I am working on an article about the provenance of the Covid policies, most of which can be tracked to China and Xi who claims credit for them - I had already identified some papers from early to late 2020 that show the Chinese doctors explaining that they were saving patients with early treatments and curing Covid19 - But Xi went on at the G7 and the G20 speech in November 2020 to tell the world to 'fight the virus' with his lockdowns doctrines, and he called for a G20 coordinating committee to foist it on the world - which is what we saw in 2021. Xi has not said a single word publicly about early treatments, and the fact that China uses HCQ and IVM to cure Covid. Not a word. And that silence hangs him too.
The Covid-cartel are an international alliance and they are all equally guilty.
Nuremberg 2.0 is really needed - but I fear it would be. along time coming. The fascists at the top of the world, and by that I mean the WEF, have a lot of power, a lot of influence, and a lot of capital - especially after the Covid robbery.
"But Xi went on at the G7 and the G20 speech in November 2020 to tell the world to 'fight the virus' with his lockdowns doctrines, and he called for a G20 coordinating committee to foist it on the world"
Thank you for the reference, I have to take a look at this and pay attention to the wording that he used. That may be useful.
PS: I am from the Iberian Peninsula, Mediterranean.
Read Michael's book. It should be required so that people understand what we are dealing with insofar as the Chinese!
Hard to make this shit up; we killed hundreds of thousands of healthy people to combat a virus that poses zero threat to the healthy. Those decision makers (Fauci, Burke, Wallensky and all the HHS cronies) will never face any consequences for what amounts to mass murder!
You are right. Most of us don't see the Chinese connection. I've been researching that for some time and can now track every Covid policy to China - got an upcoming article on it.
Take your numbers 'hundreds of thousands' and multiply it by 192 countries.
It's not pretty.
They attacked America because if America had not locked down it is likely many of the countries around the world would not have done so - it would look like Democrat vs. Republican states in the last year
true. edward dowd found about 60k excess deaths from the shot n the 18-64 demographic from the life insurance data thru end of q4, 2021. that's 10 years of vietnam war casualties in a single year.
by that i don't mean to suggest that the lockdowns were anything other than hideous: suicide and overdoses went through the roof as well. not to mention lifelong psychological damage to the kids
Too much Fed money to be harvested by hospitals for that many people to die and not go through the medical system of covid testing, regardless of how they passed.
Nice succinct summary, Michael, but I feel you're a bit too hands-off in expressing appropriate outrage. Our leaders killed these 200,000 young people as surely as if they had shot them with a gun. This is mass murder at the largest scale. And it was entirely predictable -- indeed, it was predicted by many objectors early on. I called the pandemic and lockdown policies "the Left's 9/11," and called out the massively misled thinking that resulted in lockdowns, in April of 2020. I was not alone, of course, but we really need to push for the new GOP-led Congress to hold hearings on this after the elections. Or even start now with minority-led hearings. If we don't yell to high heaven about these quantified deaths we are not going correct the record or change public health policies to avoid the inevitable repeat of these policies with the next bug that comes along, or the next or the next.
I read a few articles of how post deliverers found people not responding, dead in their homes, during the lockdowns. Others found people suddenly gone without a warning, probably all dead. Loneliness can kill. You don't even have to insert any conspiracy theory to admit that lockdowns are bad for everyone (except maybe Amazon etc. who probably sold much more)
Stop using Amazon they are a monopoly ignoring payent laws and the largest seller of Chicom crap. You can beat their so called deals online if you just look
plenty of others out there. Found a bunch already ! No more amazon for me.
Actually, it was not "our leaders" because these leaders did what they did with the full support of more than half of the population.
Every single person that supported lockdowns is responsible for every single one of these deaths.
I'd be happy if the family members of the ones that were killed decided to seek revenge against these voters somehow. Eye for eye sounds fair to me.
As well as attacking and de-platforming anyone who dared to suggest that we adopt a sensible approach to COVID, our leaders here in the UK spent over half a billion of our money pushing lockdowns and other NPIs. Half a billion buys you a hell of a lot of public support.
First, politicians want to improve their own personal lives. People need to be really naive to believe that politicians want to make the country a better place. So anyone with the minimum of critical thinking needs to look past *any* type of government propaganda.
In any case, it is absolutely not a valid excuse to say "I was drunk", "I was angry", or "I fell for government propaganda" when your decision ends up killing someone else. Those are not valid excuses for any crime, in fact.
Some of the people who supported it, though, were acting on fake information. We cannot underestimate the scope of the propaganda, and censorship of information. If I had believed what I was hearing from the MSM, and big tech, I might have been just as compliant, out of fear...which was stoked EVERY day, all day long. Still is. Many of the people who were supporting them, are no longer supporting them (as more of the truth, and those telling it, are unable to be stopped.
You don't really believe that this is a valid excuse, right? Imagine that you are not the person giving this excuse, but the one receiving it: "Hey, sorry that I helped the people who killed your kid/mother/other relative. But you know what? I was very afraid. The government said something that really frightened me... And you know how it is, right? See you!"
I know that some people are just reckless. But these people should know what they are and not participate in any form of public debate. Just as a drunk person should not drive a car.
Hi Tam, In defense of Michael -
I have felt the sort of outrage you mentioned since mid 2020, when I could see that deaths building here in Thailand from the lockdowns, which went through the roof for multiple causes, suicides for example were off the charts, and urban poor locked up in their slum homes without income were starving to death. And the longer the restrictions went the worse it all became.
So you are right that it is mass murder. And if you expand that out to 193 countries what number do we get. It is unimaginable, and runs into the millions, perhaps tens of millions. And the life years lost by shortening lives is hundreds of millions.
And all through 2021 I watched in horror as the vaccine mandates came for everyone, and the vaccine deaths and injured were gaslighted by the government, the medical profession, and the media. I live near 3 hospitals, in a condo on the 40th floor, and during the mass vaccine drive in Bangkok the sound of ambulances went all hour, every hour all day, and it nearly sent me insane, they only went quiet in the last 2 months.
Prior to the max vax, we'd have been lucky to hear 2 or 3 in a given day. It was up to 5-8 an hour every day for nearly a year. First shot, second shot, booster shot, fourth shot. Madness.

I tried - on Facebook, YouTube and Medium - I got deplatformed from Medium, warned countless times on YouTube until they hid my account in a dark hole, and censored a dozen times and locked out of my account on Facebook multiple times.
Finally I discovered Substack, and it is a breath of fresh air - but doesn't have the organic reach the other platforms had when free speech was not infringed on. And for my first viral post on an Australian police officer who quit and spoke out against our governments Covid insanity - it spread like crazy for ten days and was up to nearly 30k views, and then it fell off a cliff. Literally it just stopped. And my page has crawled ever since. I don't know how they do it, but they are censoring us on Substack too. Or at least slowing us down.
I tell you all this so you know that I am someone who is utterly outraged about the genocide taking place, and everything about the Covid fascist war on humanity. I have lost 3 friends to the vax, and kept track of all family and friends who have been hurt or know someone that has. That list is now up to 35 deaths and over 100 injuries. Before the vax I knew exactly no one who had Covid or died. And I know dozens of people who have been bankrupted.
As a result of this brutality and in order to get over the anger and constant depression I felt through most of 2021, and the rage I felt at what the policies had done to my personal life and my own professional income pre-Covid which simply vanished, I realized we are in a world war, a fascist hybrid war the likes of which we have never seen. I said to myself that in war people die. And that while I tried to save friends and family, and some listened and others did not, then I had to accept that they made their decisions, and I have to accept that these people are dying and being hurt. If I get outraged about it every time I lose the ability to function. And I compared the sounds of the ambulance sirens to the sounds of bombs raining on London during WW2 - I say to myself "the bombs are falling" - so you have to dodge the bombs and get on with your life and fight back the best you can.
So this is part of what keeps me going, functioning, and fighting - the bombs are falling and we must keep on keeping on.
I think that Michael has long known the devastation of the entire policy playbook of Xi Jinping for Covid-19, (I wrote about how Xi claims it for himself in the article below)
But we have to face the death and destruction and keep ourselves sane and keep fighting.
In writing his book, the first on the market that clearly spells it out that Xi Jinping shut down the world - and in turning up on the page here to write incessantly turning out more articles every week that shines a light on the evil of both Red Fascism and Western Fascism, the global fascist alliance attacking humanity, Michael is doing the best he can, and doing a great job of it in my view.

I am going to save your comment. It feels like at least we are not alone thinking we cannot go crazy in a crazy world ! Thank you for your comment !
Ingrid, thanks for that too. Yes these Marxist-Fascists want us to go insane. That is part of the psychological war they are waging. I feel honoured you'd save my comment thank you again. Stay sane - now there's a good t-shirt slogan. :)
I got a few good ones from Sharyl Attkisson. Maybe she would have that print on a shirt? I would certainly buy it !
Well said. Especially the part about how to stay sane in the midst of all of it. I’ve struggled with this as well. Your words help. Thank you.
Spartacus - thanks for the compliment. I am very glad you liked my words. And yes staying sane in an insane world is our challenge. Keep safe - survive, strive and thrive again.
But that is always the case. A wise man once said “It rains on the “good (or normal)” and the “bad (or neurotic)” but the “good” get wet because the “bad” steal their umbrellas.” Very few have the courage to rise to the challenge. It is easier to “sing a little louder.”
I had similar thoughts comparing my experiences of the last few years to a war in order to make some sense of it. I read accounts of other periods in history were entire continents were caught up in a sort of mass psychosis. In a strange way it brought me consolation to see that this was "just" another episode, only difference being that I had a front row seat. Ultimately I decided stop mourning the loss of the world as I knew it before, and simply accept the challenges as they come. I recalibrated whatever expectations I had of my life, and decided to focus on survival as it's own reward.
Yes, we have to accept it, and recalibrate - and survive. Lol. I say to myself most days and have for a long time "I have to survive, I have to strive, and I will thrive again.' :)
Agreed and I wasn't meaning to be critical of Michael -- his work is laudable and amazing. I am also doing what I can, as a policy attorney and part-time academic, to correct things in this ongoing war, and have been spending inordinate time on these issues. It's a virus of the mind as much or more as of they body, in terms of the degree to which any thinking person has had to think about these issues in order to stay sane. https://tamhunt.medium.com/how-covid-19-stats-are-grossly-exaggerated-a-brief-summary-of-the-arguments-53a5b4237c4c
Glad to hear you doing that. I see a sea change recently. All over the world there are more and more people like yourself stepping up, focusing on the issues, and rejecting the pseudo-science. And I think this is the only way we will win. We must overwhelm the opposition. Because that is how they got us into lockdowns and 2 years of totalitarianism-which hasn't ended, just temporarily retreated while they attack us in other was (oil prices and food shortages) - they literally shouted us into lockdowns. So we need the power of the crowd to shout back.
How do you manage to talk about these issues on Medium? They blasted me off their platform last year for writing articles challenging the narratives.
Thanks for the link to your article, I'll read it. Here's one I wrote on the biggest culprit of the Covid-war......
https://ivanmpaton.substack.com/p/xi-jinping-set-all-covid-19-pandemic?s=w
Tam, the deaths were the point & they don’t want to correct. I’m sure they’re disappointed they didn’t kill more & are working in a lab to unleash something worse. And long term effects of the current poison are still unknown.
You're right about that. Look at the multiple (hybrid) strategies they are using to kill people today - soaring food prices, soaring energy prices - all of which leads to deaths in multiple ways - famine, slow starvation, malnutrition, conflicts, stress etc.
None of this was necessary. But Biden, the EU, and Xi (he locked down Shanghai ports and disrupted global supply chains for 3 cases) have all done this deliberately.
Because it is hybrid warfare and the aim is to kill, to maim, to injure and to destroy the will of the populations.
Fully agree, Ivan
SCREW THE HEARINGS... HOW ABOUT TRIALS!!!
every single person who I talked to with a decent head on their shoulders knew this would kill untold amounts of people. It is how I lost faith in humankind.
I appreciate the "just the facts" tone.
Can anyone help me program my keyboard for automatic fill-in of "bit late to the party, ain't ya fellas?" since there's gonna be a heck of a lot of this coming...
I've discovered "Told you so!" hasn't been anywhere near as much fun these last 2 years as I thought it would...
did they include YPLL numbers? because starting from nursing home over-representation (a factor of 100 or more) and life expectancy (~1 yr on admission) each death of a young person is 100x+ as expensive in YPLL terms compared to covid death
They are too terrified to calculate THAT number- it's truly terrible thing that has been done. It's like a silent Vietnam war occurred.
It's worse. It's as if every western country in the world fought four Vietnam wars. Next up . . . . needlessly starve the third world.
Agree, YLL and YPLL are far far more appropriate than excess deaths for calculating the harm from Covid and policies. I wrote up a piece on this here: https://tamhunt.medium.com/are-lockdowns-causing-more-harm-than-good-528b8ca8d22d
Of course the lockdowns killed people. The lockdowns were only followed to allow for the mail-in voting to secure The Steal.
You can't lockdown a country to stop an air-borne contagion months after it was already all over the place. That's nonsense.
The truth at last. But we should measure QALYs
https://tamhunt.medium.com/are-lockdowns-causing-more-harm-than-good-528b8ca8d22d
So what. Do you think any one of our Young Global Leaders could care less about causing so many excess deaths? Not a chance. And there's nothing we can do to ensure it won't happen again. Can you say, "monkeypox?"
Thanks Michael. I have zero reason to doubt this. Isolation and solitary confinement have long been a form of punishment because they cause misery.
Have you seen this? A harrowing account of what transpired in Canada and UK and likely elsewhere in 2020. Note that some nonCovid deaths were likely reported as Covid as the true cause was too unpalatable to acknowledge
https://c2cjournal.ca/2022/03/who-killed-granny-pandemic-death-protocols-in-canadas-long-term-care-facilities/
Slats - your comment about 'isolation and solitary confinement' just inspired me to write this note in my lockdowns file:
"Isolation and solitary confinement have long been a form of punishment because they cause misery" - and to break the will of people. Lockdowns were aimed at ‘non-essential’ workers and businesses – because they were the ones that are independent and not under the control of big business and political influences – so in order to force fascism they needed to destroy that which they can’t control.
They targeted their greatest opposition to global fascism with lockdowns for 'non-essential' people.
Cheers. Interesting in reading your work if you could please direct me.
Amazing report!! Thanks a lot for sharing!
From the Report:
"Summing our estimates across causes and age groups, we estimate 171,000 excess non-
Covid deaths through the end of 2021 plus 72,000 unmeasured Covid deaths. The Economist has
assembled national-level mortality data from around the world and obtains a similar U.S.
estimate, which is 199,000 (including any unmeasured Covid) or about 60 persons per 100,000
population (Global Change Data Lab 2022). For the European Union as a whole, the estimate is
near-identical at 64 non-Covid excess deaths per 100K. In contrast, the estimate for Sweden is
-33, meaning that non-Covid causes of death were somewhat low during the pandemic."
I'm very glad to see this report but the chance of there being "unmeasured deaths" is about zero given the absurdly over-inclusive definitions of a Covid-associated death, with any whiff of Covid qualifying someone as a "Covid death." https://tamhunt.medium.com/why-is-there-an-egregious-double-standard-when-looking-at-vaccine-related-deaths-vs-5294f85eca1e
NOTE: This is a radical idea, however it is my conclusion so far on the whole COVID-19 situation. Advice to the reader, this is pure speculation, I do not have evidence to support these claims. It just fits the data that I have collected, my knowledge on the subject and my own intuition. Do not take any of these statements as fact and I am not saying this as a form of sarcasm.
In my opinion, if I am being honest, Covid deaths...
Let's make a definition first:
Covid Death = Someone who died with a SARS-CoV-2 infection as the Only Cause
As I was saying, in my opinion, Covid Deaths only happened with the original strain of SARS-CoV-2 in very limited places to very very very few people, maybe less than 1,000 people in the whole world. A number similar to SARS. [From Wiki: The 2002–2004 outbreak of SARS, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus, infected over 8,000 people from 29 countries and territories, and resulted in at least 774 deaths worldwide. ]
And my estimation may be "Extreme" for some people but... I think I am pretty much correct. The only people who died where located in the limited places where the Bioweapon was released, which again, in my personal opinion, happened in several places, maybe three to five places. This has nothing to do with China, that is nonsense to me. It had to be orchestrated in many places around the world in order for it to spread in the way that it did. However, in my opinion, again, the virulence of the Bioweapon decreases exponentially after just a few contagions. That is why the virulence of SARS-CoV-2 has been pretty close to a Bad Flu season almost from the beginning and that is why it didn't spread from Wuhan to the rest of China, hence it didn't spread from China to the rest of the world.
It is important to notice however, that the virulence of a SARS-CoV-2 infection is starting to change in the vaccinees. I recommend to follow Geert Vanden Bossche on that topic.
I personally have spent a lot of time thinking this issue through as well.
And it is my opinion that you are spot on. And in fact there is a lot of existing evidence and policy in China that backs you up.
Your definition of a Covid death is close to what it should be, and dismisses the fakery of 'died with a PCR test within 28 days' - which is scientific fraud, spread by the WHO - But China did it differently.
One of the overlooked issues regarding discussion of China's 'pandemic' is that by May 2020 China had changed the definition of a Covid death from 'died with a positive PCR test' to 'must have died with pneumonia, in the presence of SARS-CoV-2 virus proven with a lab genome sequencing test' (source Dr. Ronald B. Brown MD PHD Canada)
In fact we don't usually die of viruses when we get pneumonia. The virus creates inflammation, which creates ideal conditions for bacteria to grow, and leads to bacterial pneumonia. I am quoting from Dr. Fauci's 2008 NIH paper on reviewing cadavers from the Spanish Flu deaths, where they concluded that 97% had died of bacterial pneumonia, not the virus, and they recommended having more antibiotics on stock for pandemics. Fauci must have had a brain snap because in the era of Covid19 he hasn't mentioned this once.
More importantly Chinese doctors have been curing patients of Covid-19 from the start and said that with early treatment using HCQ they could keep 90% of people with early symptoms out of hospital, but could cure it at every stage. This was reported to the WHO-China Joint Mission in Feb 2020, and is in that report, and again in June 2020 in the Chinese white paper 'Fighting Covid-19: China in Action' -
But meanwhile Xi claimed it was lockdowns, and encouraged the WHO to spread that to the world, which they dutifully did, and he told the G20 meeting in November of 2020, (speech available online) after Biden had won, and 6 months after China's deaths from Covid-19 had flat lined (see Worldometer), to follow his lockdown doctrines and 'fight the virus.' It was pure propaganda, misdirection and intention to create global harms, because Xi knew how to cure Covid, and the anti-cures campaign and censorship was already. in full swing. So the silence on this subject condemns Xi. (and others)
So while China had returned to normal, notably the only country in the world to do so, the rest of the world in the winter of 2020-21 went into Covid madness, which ramped up with mass injections of mRNA drugs which created perhaps mutants as Bossche warned, but it also created vaccine induced Covid - a well documented phenomenon of large vaccination campaigns of creating outbreaks of the disease you are vaccinating for, which even Fauci has said publicly is a danger they have to be aware of. (measles, polio etc.)
They were spreading Covid On purpose. And I believe this is why they attacked the unvaccinated, and did their best by denying people their legal and human rights to work, to travel, etc. Because they have been spreading disease. On purpose.
It is impossible to come to any other conclusion. It is global. It is organized. It is coming from the top down. It is coming from the political left, the communists, and those behaving as fascists. They refuse to discuss anything. They refuse to consider data and science that destroys their faked pseudoscience. They are trying to ramp. up more censorship to stop information-not disinformation. Etc.
And remember China didn't use these mRNA drugs and for a long time would not let anyone who'd been injected with them into China. They also sealed themselves off. They wouldn't let their citizens leave. Why? Is it because they didn't want their citizens going out and catching mRNA spread Covid and bringing it back to China? That is the likeliest reason. So watch for when China opens the borders fully again - it is likely a signal that they think the threat of the chemical bioweapons is over.
Between a proper case definition, and early treatment, China stopped the pandemic, or rather outbreak. "Poof in May 2020 it was gone." And their graph flatlined - only country in the world to do it. And it's happening again right now with their latest Covid lockdown charades - graph is flat lining. It happens nowhere else. Ever. And it can only happen if you are curing people and defining the deaths correctly.
But they did the lockdown charades to force the world into lockdown - and Xi continues with it today even though there was not any significant numbers of Covid deaths in China in 2022 - it's political, he is attacking his enemies in Shanghai who seek to stop him being dictator for life.
Another thought that backs up your comment is expanding on your comment about decreasing virulence.. It is highly unlikely that the SARS-CoV-2 virus as sequenced in early 2020 even exists today.
It has been through hundreds of thousands of mutations, and one scientist in Europe, it might have been the late Luc Montaigner, claimed it the virus was shedding the spike proteins, which brings it back to an ordinary coronavirus. This would explain why 'Omicron' was so mild.
I would like to challenge you on your statement "this has nothing to do with China."
You are right on one that it has been orchestrated world wide, and that is evidence that China is working in cooperation with those parties - my personal opinion is that we can just call it the G20 group - because if they'd not gone into lockdowns no other country would. So the guiltiest group is the G20.
But and excuse me for being blunt, you are 100% wrong on that point that it has nothing to do with China.
It has everything to do with China as pointed out in Michael's book. If China had not played Covid charades the world would never have gone into lockdown. They did it to deceive the world. China went to Italy to help them orchestrate Covid charades there (see Michael's early article on this) - in order to frighten the world some more because up to that point it wasn't working.
And every single Covid-19 policy that turned medicine and science upside down can be tracked to China. Every single one. (see earlier mentioned papers)
And Xi today in the face of 2 years of data and research that says every policy is bullshit, he continues to rant about his zero-Covid policies saying there will be no 'living with Covid' and he'll 'smash any resistance.' He didn't say that for China - he said it for the rest of the world.

Hi Ivan,
Thank you for reading my reply, I agree with most of what you say here. Regarding my statement on "this has nothing to do with China", the only thing that I meant by that is that China is not "The Orchestrator", it has been a supranational collaboration.
I agree that they pushed for Lockdowns, even now, and that they invented the concept, which is a very serious violation of The Universal Declaration of Human Rights. However, I also have to admit that there is a HUGE difference between locking down a city, no matter how big, and locking down a whole country, as they did in so many places, including my own country. And there is another thing, China did promote, Extensively in fact, Early Treatment to the international community from the beginning of the Outbreak in Wuhan. Western countries just didn't listen and they did the opposite, take a look:

So... before I make any claim like "China is responsible for the deaths in Europe, America, Australia..." Our own governments are the only ones responsible for that.
Let’s take another perspective: China, like North Korea can lockdown everybody they want in their own countries, because they are dictatorships. Nevertheless it was our own governments, the 100% responsible for the lockdowns and all the damage that has been done to us in the Western World. From another angle, Iran can literally kill people for not being Muslim enough. If the government of my country kills someone for being Christian (just as an example) it is clearly not the fault of Iran, even if they promote killing people based on their religious believes.
That was my point in relation to "it has nothing to do with China". I am not Chinese, I don't live in China, and what has happened in the Western World, is 100% responsibility of the people "leading" here, our politicians and our medical authorities. Even regarding Mr. Gates, I do not vote for him, the politicians and the medical authorities that are following him via lobbying are the ones that have to answer to me. They are the ones responsible. And I know that democracy is not working at all, but in theory this is the way it should be.
In a broader sense, of course, many countries and supranational organizations are involved in this crime, including China. And there should be a criminal investigation in an International Court of Law, 100%. Nuremberg 2.0 is needed!
Hi Agus,
Thanks for clearing up the point about your view on China.
I think you are right that each government have to take responsibility for what they did to their countries. But it has been a collective operation against humanity - I see it as a global fascist-Marxist alliance, because when I track all the players, through multiple layers it always comes back to 2 large groups - the World Economic Forum's fascist cabal, and the CCP.
Indeed I think it would be appropriate to blame the leaders of the G20 countries and the EU, because if any of them had failed to play this game it would not have worked.
And even though our leaders have shown massive corruption for foisting Covid on us all, and using China's Covid charades to do it, it would never have worked without China - And I used to be China dove, I was singing the country's praises back as early as 1994 when I first visited Shenzen as it was coming out of the rice fields.
But that is long gone. The CCP can never be forgiven for repaying the world's generosity in helping to fund the rebuilding of China, and opening up to trade with almost every country on earth, and joining the WTO, which is what allowed China to become the factory of the world and to grow rich. That the CCP has engaged in this attack on humanity, which is continuing today, is unforgivable to me. And their part must be highlighted as well, because most people miss it.
I am extremely grateful for all those links you sent to me as I am working on an article about the provenance of the Covid policies, most of which can be tracked to China and Xi who claims credit for them - I had already identified some papers from early to late 2020 that show the Chinese doctors explaining that they were saving patients with early treatments and curing Covid19 - But Xi went on at the G7 and the G20 speech in November 2020 to tell the world to 'fight the virus' with his lockdowns doctrines, and he called for a G20 coordinating committee to foist it on the world - which is what we saw in 2021. Xi has not said a single word publicly about early treatments, and the fact that China uses HCQ and IVM to cure Covid. Not a word. And that silence hangs him too.
The Covid-cartel are an international alliance and they are all equally guilty.
Nuremberg 2.0 is really needed - but I fear it would be. along time coming. The fascists at the top of the world, and by that I mean the WEF, have a lot of power, a lot of influence, and a lot of capital - especially after the Covid robbery.
Ivan
p.s What country do you live in?
"But Xi went on at the G7 and the G20 speech in November 2020 to tell the world to 'fight the virus' with his lockdowns doctrines, and he called for a G20 coordinating committee to foist it on the world"
Thank you for the reference, I have to take a look at this and pay attention to the wording that he used. That may be useful.
PS: I am from the Iberian Peninsula, Mediterranean.
Read Michael's book. It should be required so that people understand what we are dealing with insofar as the Chinese!
Hard to make this shit up; we killed hundreds of thousands of healthy people to combat a virus that poses zero threat to the healthy. Those decision makers (Fauci, Burke, Wallensky and all the HHS cronies) will never face any consequences for what amounts to mass murder!
Thank you PDG. Agreed.
You are right. Most of us don't see the Chinese connection. I've been researching that for some time and can now track every Covid policy to China - got an upcoming article on it.
Take your numbers 'hundreds of thousands' and multiply it by 192 countries.
It's not pretty.
They attacked America because if America had not locked down it is likely many of the countries around the world would not have done so - it would look like Democrat vs. Republican states in the last year
It’s CoVid Vax deaths plus lockdown related deaths.
true. edward dowd found about 60k excess deaths from the shot n the 18-64 demographic from the life insurance data thru end of q4, 2021. that's 10 years of vietnam war casualties in a single year.
by that i don't mean to suggest that the lockdowns were anything other than hideous: suicide and overdoses went through the roof as well. not to mention lifelong psychological damage to the kids
200,000? What shall we call this genocide for the history books?
Genocide by the CDC NIH Bidet Criminal Syndicate and FDA
They are wrong about Sweden. They DID lockdown the nursing homes. Guess where all the excess mortality is?
Lockdowns caused ALL the excess deaths everywhere...
If it saves even a single life. . . errrrr, whoops.
I call BS on this:
"..plus 72,000 unmeasured Covid deaths."
Too much Fed money to be harvested by hospitals for that many people to die and not go through the medical system of covid testing, regardless of how they passed.
was it worth it? ask the dead
