The majority of people in the U.K. have been very fortuitous in that their Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, was caught in a scandal of partying with his cabinet while the COVID lockdowns were in place.
That weight of “party-gate” meant Johnson needed the support of the British people in order to remain in office. In order to get the support of the people, Johnson is now removing all government COVID restrictions upon them.
The COVID passports, mandated mask requirements – including in schools, and all of the government dictates surrounding COVID have been removed.
The British people are essentially free to live again. WATCH:
A shift to commonsense, or just a politically necessary move that coincidentally helps the British people? You decide.

The incoherent mess of jumbled marbles occupying the oval office told everyone today that it’s okay if Russia takes a little piece of Ukraine territory, but not too much – or else it’s curtains for Putin, or something. WATCH:
Forget Putin for a moment, imagine how Chairman Xi views this against the backdrop of Taiwan.

When Joe Biden took to the microphones in October to announce, “a series of public and private commitments to move more goods faster, and strengthen the resiliency of our supply chains, by moving towards 24/7 operations at the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach,” the supply chain objective was to increase the productivity of the ports. However, data released for November [SEE HERE] and now December, show exactly the opposite.
Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg visited both ports recently. Both ports, along with Oakland, also made the arriving ships remain further offshore than when the October announcement was made. They are hiding the ships.
For some unknown reason the Port of Los Angeles (POLA) has delayed reporting of December; but the Port of Long Beach (POLB) just released their data {LINK}. What the statistics show is that less cargo is being handled now, than it was when the 24/7 port operations announcement was made:
The purpose of telling the ships to await their port time in a queue farther offshore is transparent. The Biden administration wants to give the illusion they eliminated the bottleneck of container ships. Out of sight is out of mind.
Operation ‘Hide the Ships’ allows the administration to make claims about port efficiencies and increased productivity that are abjectly false. The data from the two months after the announcement shows less container offloading and onloading happened in November and December than happened in the prior month of October when the new initiatives were announced.
Many of the high-end canned cat foods (wet foods) come from Thailand processing, and we are told they are sitting in containers offshore right now.
Port of Long Beach – […] Trade was down 7.5% in December compared to the same period in 2020 with 754,314 cargo container units moved. Imports declined 11.7% to 358,687 TEUs. Exports dropped 13.9% to 113,918 TEUs, while empty containers climbed 1.5% to 281,709 TEUs. (link)

Perhaps the mainstream media is starting to wake up. NBC is now reporting that cross-border auto parts and food shipments may start being disrupted as the trucker vaccine mandate begins. Approximately 60 to 75% of all U.S. truckers are not vaccinated. The cross-border vaccine mandate for American truckers begins January 22nd as part of the Dept of Homeland Security protocol.
…”beginning in early January 2022, DHS will require that all inbound foreign national travelers crossing U.S. land or ferry POEs – whether for essential or non-essential reasons – be fully vaccinated for COVID-19 and provide related proof of vaccination. This approach will provide ample time for essential travelers such as truckers, students, and healthcare workers to get vaccinated.” (link)
The Canadian trucker vaccine mandate began January 15th, the U.S. mandate begins this weekend, January 22nd. Given the scale of out of season fresh fruit and vegetable shipments from South and Central America, as well as Mexico, we can anticipate serious issues in the food supply chain. The NBC article highlights trade with Canada, but that’s miniscule when compared to the trade we get from Mexico.
(Via NBC) – […] The U.S. mandate, announced in October, requires all essential foreign travelers, including truck drivers, who cross U.S. land borders to be fully vaccinated. Essential nonresident travelers had been able to enter the U.S. during the pandemic regardless of their vaccination status, in part so as not to disrupt trade and to give them more time to get vaccinated.
The forthcoming mandate follows one that went into effect in Canada last week that prohibits unvaccinated truckers from crossing into Canada from the U.S.
[…] The border restriction will make the automotive supply chain issue worse, said Doug Betts, president of the global automotive division at J.D. Power, a data and analytics company focused on the auto industry. He noted that auto parts come from all over the world and one obstruction in the chain can significantly slow or stop production.
“By the time you map out the supply chain, it’s just a spider web going everywhere,” he said.
“I would be surprised if there are any (U.S.) cars that don’t have at least one Canadian-based part. Canada is a pretty important part of auto manufacturing,” Betts said. “Any part that doesn’t arrive or if there’s something wrong with it, you can’t build it. There’s more points of failure.”
[…] In Michigan, Brian Hitchcock, owner of MBH Trucking LLC, said he expects his freight transportation company to lose 40 percent in revenue because only five of his 30 drivers are vaccinated, leaving the others ineligible to haul diesel exhaust fuel back and forth from Ontario, Canada, to Michigan.
“And it’s all because we can’t cross the border,” he said. “It’s affecting every sector of what we use in this country.”
Hitchcock, also the interim executive director of the Michigan Trucking Association, said he’s spoken with 15 other trucking companies who have about 400 drivers, 75 percent of whom are unvaccinated. (read more)

The installed and inept White House occupant will be holding a rare press conference today at 4:00pm ET.
With collapsing poll numbers, minimal support from working class Americans, a failed legislative agenda, an unsecured border in crisis, widespread massive inflation hitting every worker, a supply chain in chaos from a vaccine mandate, a testing boondoggle that has exacerbated problems, flawed and contradictory messaging from the institutions of public health and growing concern over food insecurity, Joe Biden is scheduled to answer pre-approved and pre-selected questions from the official state stenographers.

A guest on the Tucker Carlson show outlined the answer to this question {Direct Rumble Link} which has been stated in these pages and a multitude of conversations for well over a year. Why has there been this massive disproportionate push for vaccination against a virus which, all things considered, is NOT that deadly?
For two years, as we have watched the various governments around the world pushing the COVID-19 vaccination, many have asked this question? The demand and effort is wildly disproportionate to the risk. So why has this vaccination program been so severely pushed, including the mandates and requirements that everyone must follow in order to participate in society? Why this scale of effort?
Tucker Carlson and Eva Vlaardingerbroek explained the motives and intents last night. Yes, in essence, this is the quiet part being said out loud.
Eva Vlaardingerbroek joined Tucker Carlson to discuss the global protests against tyrannical government overreach. These mandates all stem from the goals and directives of the Great Reset movement by the World Economic Forum (a movement which the Biden Administration is a part of). WATCH:
.
If controlling human activity is the goal, and yes, the various climate change and global planet survival frauds are at the heart of this effort, which would include the long-term goal of removing anonymous online or digital activity, then a larger reset to register all persons would require a massive global movement and need some justification. The pandemic provides that entry point. The COVID passport becomes the digital ID.
The virus provides the fear needed for a global vaccination program. The mandatory vaccination program then provides the tool for registration of identity. The registered identity then becomes the gateway for a digital identification… which, as outlined, is then used to register, monitor, track and ultimately control, a global population.
However, we enter a phase of hard-line non-compliance. Meaning, if the worry of the virus itself begins to subside, if people start to realize the fear is disproportionate to the risk, if people start to reject the vaccination program because the never-ending contrived fear of variants lead to a never-ending booster shot program to continue the registration demand, then something else is needed in the equation to continue the registration drive. That something else becomes the fear of another essential element for health, “food insecurity.” That appears to be the phase we are entering.
As we previously noted, the architects of the Build Back Better society (WEF) are guiding various governments on ways to create efficient registration and compliance systems, ie. ways that permit citizens to prove their vaccinated and compliant status. As these discussions are taking place, it is prudent to pause and think very carefully, wisely.
We all know, as we are reading this, under the guise of enhancing our safety, the U.S. Federal Government is in discussions with the medical community, multinational corporations and employers of citizens to create a more efficient process for you to register your vaccine compliance.
We know their conversation under the terminology of a COVID Passport. The current goal is to make a system for us to show and prove our authorized work status, which, as you know, is based on your obedience to a mandated vaccine.
Beta tests are being conducted in various nations, each with different perspectives and constitutional limitations, based on pesky archaic rules and laws that govern freedom.
For the western, or for lack of a better word ‘democratic‘ outlook, Australia, New Zealand and Europe are leading the way with their technological system of vaccination check points and registered state/national vaccination status tied to your registration identification.
New York City has recently joined the vaccine checkpoint process, as their city requires the vaccine to enter all private businesses.
The Australian electronic checkpoints are essentially gateways where QR codes are being scanned from the cell phones of the compliant vaccinated citizen. Yes comrades, there’s an app for that.
Currently, the vaccine status scans are registered by happy compliance workers, greeters at the entry to the business or venue. Indeed, the Walmart greeter has a new gadget to scan your phone prior to allowing you custody of a shopping cart.
In restaurants, the host or hostess has a similar compliance scanner to check you in prior to seating or a reservation confirmation.
It’s simple and fun. You pull up your QR code on your cell phone (aka portable transponder and registration device), using the registration app, and your phone is scanned delivering a green check response to confirm your correct vaccination status and authorized entry.
The Australian government, at both a federal and state level, is working closely with Big Tech companies (thirsting for the national contract) to evaluate the best universal process that can be deployed nationwide.
As noted by all six Premiers in the states down under, hardware (scanners) and software (registration) systems are all being tested to find the most comprehensive/convenient portable units to settle upon. Meanwhile in the U.S., cities like Los Angeles and New York await the beta test conclusion before deploying their own version of the same process.
In Europe, they are also testing their vaccine checkpoint and registration processes known as the EU “Green Pass.”
The “Green Pass” is a similar technological system that gives a vaccinated and registered citizen access to all the venues and locations previously locked down while the COVID-19 virus was being mitigated. What would have been called a “vast right-wing conspiracy theory” 24 months ago, is now a COVID passport process well underway.
As with all things in our rapid technological era, you do not have to squint to see the horizon and accept that eventually this process will automate, and there will be a gadget or scanning gateway automatically granting you access without a person needing to stand there and scan each cell phone QR code individually.
The automated process just makes sense. You are well aware your cell phone already transmits an electronic beacon enabling your Uber or Lyft driver access to your location at the push of a touchscreen button, another convenient app on your phone. So, why wouldn’t the gateways just accept this same recognizable transmission as registration of your vaccine compliant arrival at the coffee shop?
The automated version is far easier and way cooler than having to reach into your pocket or purse and pulling up that pesky QR code on the screen. Smiles everyone, the partnership between Big Tech and Big Government is always there to make your transit more streamline and seamless. Heck, you won’t even notice the electronic receiver mounted at the entry. Give it a few weeks and you won’t remember the reason you were laughing at Alex Jones any more than you remember why you are taking off your shoes at the airport.
However, as this process is created, it is worth considering that you are being quietly changed from an individual person to a product. Some are starting to worry in the beta test:
[…] “you must become an object with attributes sitting in a database. Instead of roaming around anonymously making all sorts of transactions without the government’s knowledge, Australians find themselves passing through ‘gates’. …
All product-based systems have these gates to control the flow of stock and weed out errors. It is how computers see things. The more gates, the more clarity.
You are updating the government like a parcel pings Australia Post on its way to a customer. If a fault is found, automatic alerts are issued, and you are stopped from proceeding. In New South Wales, this comes in the form of a big red ‘X’ on the myGov vaccine passport app (if you managed to link your Medicare account without smashing the phone to bits).
Gate-keeping systems have been adapted from retail and transformed into human-based crowd solutions to micromanage millions of lives with the same ruthless efficiency as barcodes tracking stock. There is no nuance or humanity in this soulless digital age. Barcodes are binary. Good – bad. Citizen or dissident.
Even if you have all the required government attributes to pass through the gates – two vaccines, six boosters, and a lifelong subscription to Microsoft – something could go wrong. If your data fails the scan, you’ll slip into digital purgatory and become an error message. (read more)
It could be problematic if your status fails to register correctly, or if the system identifies some form of alternate lifestyle non-compliance that will block you from entry. Then again, that’s what beta tests are for, working out all these techno bugs and stuff. Not to worry…. move along….
Then again… “For those in the privileged class allowed to shop, take note of Covid signs which encourage cashless transactions under the guise of ‘health’. Messaging around cards being ‘safer’ will increase until the Treasury tries to remove cash entirely, almost certainly with public approval.”
Wait, now we are squinting at that familiar image on the horizon because we know those who control things have been talking about a cashless society for quite a while.
We also know that data is considered a major commodity all by itself. Why do you think every system you encounter in the modern era requires your phone number even when you are not registering for anything. It, meaning you, us, are all getting linked into this modern registration system that is defining our status. We also know that system operators buy and sell our registered status amid various retail and technology systems.
Yeah, that opaque shadow is getting a little clearer now.
Perhaps you attempt to purchase dog food and get denied entry into Pet Smart because you didn’t renew the car registration. Or perhaps you are blocked from entry because you forgot to change the oil on the leased vehicle you drive, and Toyota has this weird agreement with some retail consortium. You head to the oil change place that conveniently pops up in the citizen compliance App –it’s only two blocks away– they clear the alert after they do the oil change, and you are gateway compliant again.
Missed your booster shot? We’re sorry citizen, your bank account is frozen until your compliance is restored… please proceed to the nearest vaccination office as displayed conveniently on your cell phone screen to open access to all further gates (checkpoints)…. tap to continue!
It seems transparently obvious where this is heading:
A series of Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) filings into the Dutch government has resulted in rather revealing letters showing the motive of the World Economic Forum, an assembly of multinational banks and corporations, summoning government leaders.
Notice how they are using the words “shaping policies for the post-COVID-19 era“?
The World Economic Forum, a collection of corporations, “shaping” government “policies.”
Why does this matter? Well, fascism was traditionally defined as an authoritarian government working hand-in-glove with corporations to achieve objectives. A centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, using severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition.
That system of government didn’t work in the long-term, because the underlying principles of free people reject government authoritarianism. Fascist governments collapsed, and the corporate beneficiaries were nulled and scorned for participating. Then, along came a new approach to achieve the same objective.
The World Economic Forum (WEF) was created to use the same fundamental associations of government and corporations. Only this time, it was the multinational corporations who organized to tell the government(s) what to do. The WEF was organized for multinational corporations to assemble and tell the various governments how to cooperate with them, in order to be rewarded by them. Corporatism was/is the outcome. The government is now doing what the multinationals tell them to do, and in return the multinationals install the compliant politicians.
Fascism, the cooperation between government and corporations, is still the underlying premise; the World Economic Forum simply flipped the internal dynamic putting the corporations in charge of handing out the instructions.
What results is a slightly modified definition of fascism:
…A massive multinational corporate conglomerate; telling a centralized autocratic government leader what to do; and using severe economic and social regimentation as a control mechanism; combined with forcible suppression of opposition by both the corporations and government.
Doesn’t that define our current reality, especially in the era of COVID?
The instructions from the multinational corporations to government would be called the “Great Reset“, or as commonly transposed by the government officials receiving the instructions, “Build Back Better”.
The preliminary results of a recent Sheba Medical Center healthcare worker study reveal that a fourth booster lacks the necessary protection against the Omicron variant of the COVID-19 vaccine. While the jab may afford select high-risk populations some benefit, most of the population receives little to no value from the boost. This raises serious questions about the direction of the global pandemic response centered on one dose of a vaccine after another. The implications of these preliminary results are profound if they hold up during final data, peer-review come publishing time. This implies that in just over a year, four vaccination doses were required and that didn’t even cover the entire population widely enough. With a virus such as influenza, an annual vaccine to reduce the risk of infection serves as a rational target benchmark for what these COVID-focused vaccines should be, governments and public health agencies should start stepping back and considering the most rational, economical, and importantly safe approach moving forward. While Pfizer projects another $33 billion-plus revenue year, government authorities need to start thinking about value-based payments associated with such mass vaccination schemes.
The Study
With over 150 medical staff participating in a study commencing in December 2021, the academic medical center, in partnership with the Ministry of Health, launched what is the only currently known investigation into the effects of a fourth Pfizer-BioNtech (BNT162b2 or Comirnaty) booster dose. A first-of-its-kind study conducted in alliance with the Health Ministry, the program proceeded despite the World Health Organization’s attempts to thwart such booster programs in favor of global vaccine equity.
Israel: Vaccination Nation Failing to Stop Omicron
Over the past half-year, TrialSite has been informed by multiple hospital executives in Israel that the American National Institutes of Health (NIH) looks to the Ministry of Health and various hospitals frequently as Israel has become a sort of canary in the mine for the COVID-19 vaccines worldwide. Well, that canary starts to stress, as the indicators of the global vaccination program don’t look great. Yes, the Ministry of Health reports the vaccines have reduced the levels of infectious disease and death, yet the price tag for the COVID-19 vaccination program mounts above and beyond what could have been expected by any rational point of view.
One of the most boosted nations, if not the most boosted nation on the planet, a month ago over 58% of the eligible population received a booster reported the Health Ministry of Israel.Subscribe to the Trialsitenews “COVID-19” ChannelNo spam – we promise
As can be reviewed by Our World in Data, Israel’s vaccination rates are sky high for high-risk elderly populations but increasingly, younger people became hesitant in the country. Perhaps, as more is learned about the virus and the risk-benefit analyses necessary for different cohorts, the inoculation of the entire population based on current unfolding results becomes even more of a shakier target.
Cases Skyrocket
In the meantime, COVID-19 again surges in Israel despite a heavily boosted population. To put things in perspective, yesterday, the nation’s health authorities reported 33,505 new daily infections based on a 7-day average in this nation of 9.2 million people.
The previous record was 22,291 set on September 8th, part of the Delta variant surge from July through October of last year. Cases all but flatlined from late October through mid-December then rapidly ascended, breaking records daily now.
The good news continues to be that death rates are far lower than previous surges, with the deadliest surge occurring from December 2020 to March 2021. But the population becomes weary and increasingly suspect of endless vaccinations as the answer. In fact, much like the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the health authorities in this eastern Mediterranean nation cut the COVID-19 isolation time from ten to five days in recognition that the Omicron variant isn’t as severe as previous variants, reports multiple media including Haaretz.
Not Good Enough
The media in Israel, such as the Times of Israel, was abuzz with the story that the recent study failed to achieve the desired results. TrialSite links to Reutersand Thomson Reuters Foundationas one of the first sources to cover the hospital’s admission. Led by Professor Gili Regev-Yochay, the study team learned that the current mRNA-based vaccines fail to deliver the necessary value when measured against the goals of a population-wide, effective, and safe means of significantly reducing infection, serious illness, and death. The study investigators do indicate the vaccine still may provide some protection for high-risk cohorts.
But, when considered against the initial target of leading to herd immunity, the vaccines have, frankly, failed to achieve such an outcome. Rather, they are a useful medical regimen for high-risk populations. Based on an accurate risk-benefit analysis, for example, some populations such as the elderly, face higher risks for severe disease or death and consequently, may benefit from the vaccine. Also under consideration are the risks for long COVID. However, an objective, unbiased, and scientific point of view should now intervene and direct courses of action moving forward.
In the Times of Israel, Professor Regev-Yochay went on the record, “The vaccines, which were very effective against the previous strains, are less effective against the Omicron strain.”
Unfortunately, Regev-Yochay continued to the Times of Israel, “We see an increase in antibodies, higher than after the third dose. He continued, “However, we see many infected with Omicron who received the fourth dose. Granted, a bit less than in the control group, but still a lot of infections.”
The lead investigator concluded, “The bottom line is that the vaccine is excellent against the Alpha and Delta [variants], for Omicron it’s not good enough.”
Reports are preliminary, meaning the academic medical center-based study team has more work to do to finalize the study results. But the group had to share this information given the public interest and need for insight.
Conflict over Messaging?
While the study team representing Sheba Medical Center shared the preliminary findings, this apparently angered the Health Ministry which didn’t want this information floating around the media at this point. With a growing vaccine hesitancy in Israel, the government continues to navigate the media toward a positive projection of vaccine results.
Consequently, Sheba Medical Center issued a statement hours after releasing the results calling for “continuing the vaccination drive for risk groups at this time, even though the vaccine doesn’t provide optimal protection against getting infected with the variant.”

Proponents of COVID-19 vaccination point out that the increasingly high number of COVID-19 cases in fully vaccinated people simply reflects the greater number of fully vaccinated people compared to unvaccinated people in many populations. To form a more accurate estimation of vaccine effectiveness, the rate of cases within a population needs to be compared between the fully vaccinated and unvaccinated groups—that is, the number of cases in each group divided by the respective total number of people in each group should be compared. Here, I provide an exploratory data analysis, calculating and comparing fully vaccinated and unvaccinated COVID-19 case rates, using an example from COVID-19 vaccination data in Ontario, Canada for January 15, 2022. COVID-19 vaccination data.Subscribe to the Trialsitenews “COVID-19” ChannelNo spam – we promise
COVID-19 cases were reported in Ontario on January 15, 2022 as follows:
Fully vaccinated cases: 8,223
Unvaccinated cases: 1,539
However, the total number of unvaccinated people in the Ontario population who are vaccine eligible (age 5+) is not reported, so that has to be calculated.
From the data, the fully vaccinated population is 11,530,464, and the percentage of fully vaccinated is 82% of the eligible population.
Therefore, we can estimate the total vaccine eligible population of Ontarians, which is 14,061,541 (11,530,464 / 0.82).
Also from the data, the percentage of unvaccinated people is 12% of the total vaccine eligible Ontarians.
Therefore, from the total number of eligible Ontarians we can estimate the total unvaccinated population, which is 1,687,384 (0.12 * 14,061,541).
Fully Vaccinated and Unvaccinated Case Rates
Now that we have estimates for the total number of fully vaccinated and unvaccinated Ontarians, we can easily divide the fully vaccinated and unvaccinated cases by their respective number of Ontarians who are fully vaccinated and unvaccinated, giving us the case rates in each group.
Rate of cases in fully vaccinated: 0.07% (8,223 cases / 11,530,464 vaccinated people)
Rate of cases in unvaccinated: 0.09% (1,539 cases / 1,687,384 unvaccinated people)
Absolute reduction of the case rate in fully vaccinated compared to unvaccinated: 0.02%. That’s a difference in case rates of only 2 one-hundredths of 1 percent!
Conclusion: Even though there are many more fully vaccinated people than unvaccinated people in Ontario, the case rate reduction in the fully vaccinated group in this analysis is a mere 0.02% compared to the unvaccinated group.
The legal age is 14 in Australia to consent for sex to vaccines, while in the USA 17-year-olds sue for vast amounts of money claiming they didn’t know they should not be paid for sex. Here the Australian government is pushing 14-year-olds to get the vaccine and not even to tell their parents.
These vaccines are NOT like a polio vaccine — one shot and done. They do not work beyond two to three months. This is all becoming a major fraud and a money pot for Bill Gates/Pfizer to create endless profits by requiring never-ending boosters.
Even in Germany, “A complete vaccination consists of three doses,” said Health Minister Lauterbach of the “Bild am Sonntag.” He warned that despite the low numbers in intensive care units, there are still difficult weeks ahead. These vaccines do not offer permanent protection. They require endless boosters. This is nothing more than a political tool and unfortunately, governments will never investigate themselves and who has been bought to carry out this denial of freedom. Gates himself has admitted that the vaccines have not delivered what he promised. This will go down in history as the greatest fraud of all time. What they are counting on is that all the people who rushed out to get vaccinated will prefer not to admit that they were fooled. They count on their self-esteem to deny that they did not work.
