The majority of prior studies for the COVID-19 vaccinations -writ large- generate an efficacy range around 60 to 70 percent in prevention of COVID hospitalization. The efficacy for virus infection is essentially nil. The vaccine does nothing to prevent infection or transmission; their only claims are now a reduction in hospitalization rates.
Therapeutics, preventative medicines and healthy lifestyle choices to avoid negative outcomes, have been mostly ignored, often ridiculed, and largely downplayed by politicians, media and Big Pharma. Instead their preferred collective strategy has been a massive, overemphasized and almost exclusive effort to force vaccinations as the only medical option for SARS-CoV-2 infections.
The most studied and widespread therapeutic treatment on a global scale has been the use of an oral antiviral pill known as Ivermectin and a regime of supportive medications. Japan and India have embraced the Ivermectin protocol with reported large scale success rates.
However, the U.S., Europe and Australia have focused exclusively on treating and chasing the SARS-CoV-2 virus with vaccines for the virus and boosters for the variants.
Today Pfizer, the #1 vaccine maker on a global scale, is introducing their version of a pill form of therapeutic. With Ivermectin, a Merck product, costing somewhere around 30¢/dose, it appears Pfizer sees an opening for a $xx/dose pill option to enhance their growing profit margin. It is interesting to note the Pfizer study for their pill was conducted on a non-vaccinated population.
(VIA ABC) – A course of pills developed by Pfizer can slash the risk of being hospitalized or dying from COVID-19 by 89% if taken within three days of developing symptoms, according to results released Friday by the pharmaceutical company.
In a study of more than 1,200 COVID-19 patients with a higher risk of developing serious illness, people who took Pfizer’s pills were far less likely to end up in the hospital compared to people who got placebo pills.
[…] “Having an oral therapy is critically important,” said Dr. Carlos Del Rio, the executive associate dean and a global health expert at the Emory School of Medicine.
“If we can get patients to start treatment early before they progress to severe illness and unfortunately death, everyone wins in the fight against COVID,” said Dr. Simone Wildes, a board-certified infectious disease physician at South Shore Health and an ABC News contributor. Infectious disease specialists stressed that these pills are not a replacement for a vaccine — by far the safest and most effective way to reduce the risk of being hospitalized with COVID-19.
But they may make a big difference if given quickly to people after getting COVID-19, especially the immune compromised, or in places where a vaccine is not available.
Pfizer’s pill-based treatment “would be a good drug for patient with COVID and high risk of progression, vaccinated or not,” said Del Rio, “although the vaccinated were not included in this study.” (read more)
Both Merck and Pfizer are requesting emergency use authorization for their pill form therapeutics.

As the Biden administration has now put a January 4th deadline on workers to comply with a federal mandate for forced medical treatment, the intensity of the resistance is beginning to increase and narrow their focus.
A video message attributed to workers within the Proctor and Gamble corporation warns Americans about the consequences of attempting to force vaccinations upon a productive workforce that will make independent decisions…. WATCH:
As we have continued to point out, a federal vaccine mandate might sound like a good idea on a think tank, academic or white-paper policy level of consideration; but on a practical level, wiping out a large percentage of the most productive workforce over a vaccine mandate is unworkable. Well, that is, if those in power desired to keep the economic and civic society functioning on a reasonable level.
For the past twenty months this same group of millions of blue collar workers were called “essential workers.” Then the narrative to support a political vaccine was shifted in order to leverage a political strategy; a strategy that needs division. The “essential” have become the disposable.
It is important to note the recent NBC poll on this issue amid the outlook of the vaccine mandates. A majority of the country do not support the vaccine mandates, and worse still, the number of unvaccinated workers is essentially unwavering in the past six weeks {poll data}. Remember, the number of Americans who willingly quit their jobs increased to 4.3 million in August {link}. People are not f**king around now.
The number of cumulative hard “NO’s” has gone from 26 percent in August, to 27 percent now.
We are down to the hardened group, an educated and solid bunch of people who use common sense, and they are not going to take the forced vaccination.
In quantifiable terms, the increased pressure to force the jab into the arms of the American workforce has now crossed into what is called “the law of diminishing returns.” More government pressure is not going to yield the previous level of compliance. Instead, it will build a dangerous level of resentment. This threshold crossed is also quantifiable in the 4.3 million Americans who quit working (242,000 of them in August alone).
There are 205 million legally eligible U.S. workers between 15 and 74-years-old (census figures) with a workforce participation rate of 61% (BLS figures) which would equal 125 million legally eligible workers. However, the Bureau of Labor Statistics puts the number of working Americans at 161 million workers (BLS figures). The majority of the difference between the two figures are most likely illegal alien workers (yeah, lots of them).
Approximately 40 percent of the eligible population are not working. Some people are single family income (wives or husbands who don’t work), and some are just people who choose not to work, cannot work or have not yet started to work (college etc). With somewhere between 125 million and 161 million workers doing the jobs that keep the country functioning, there are also approximately 10 million unfilled job openings.
According to the most recent statement from Joe Biden on October 14th: “We’re down to 66 million — it’s still an unacceptably high number — of unvaccinated people from almost 100 million in July.” Approximately 60 million of those are within the current U.S. workforce.
If we split the difference (census -vs- BLS) and take the mid-point at 140 million workers, then 60 million workers refusing the vaccine mandate represents about 40 percent of the entire population of eligible workers. Put another way, in the best case scenario, if 60 million people quit working or were fired, the national unemployment rate would be at least 35% !
What we call the United States doesn’t function with 35% unemployment; systems of commerce start to collapse, then government, then civil society.
The U.S. economy is currently functioning with 5% unemployment and 10 million unfilled jobs.
Just imagine the economic impact of 35% unemployment and 70 million unfilled jobs.
Keep in mind, the vast majority of those 60 million jobs are the productive workforce that keep the entire machine of the U.S. functioning.
This is the workforce that keeps the goods moving, the lights on, garbage picked up, streets safe, shelves stocked, stuff fixed and facilitates everything that makes the entire system of society function.
It is the force of this crew or hard core, dirty fingernail, no-nonsense workers that is pushing those federal contractor companies to contact the administration and tell them this mandate is not going to work for them.
If Main Street companies have to choose between losing their ability to contract with the federal government, or losing the most critical part of their U.S. workforce, well, they likely cannot comply with Biden’s mandate.
There is no way for government or private industry to function with tens of millions of Americans in the domestic workforce getting forcibly removed for refusing the vaccine.
Pontificating leftists and academics, without a bit of sense for what actually happens in the Main Street economy, have no concept of what it looks like if ten million people quit or are fired from working next month…. let alone five times that many.
The power of the American workforce is in the scale of dependency each person brings to the system when they are united. It might seem like a few thousand here/there, because that’s the way the media are framing it. However, if you add up all those few thousands together, you end up with millions.
As we previously outlined, this is not about vaccines per se’, this is more about a slippery slope of having the government dictate how you can live your life and earn a living.
If the federal government can force us to have a medical procedure, and then carry documentation of that procedure in order to work… why can’t they force us to get a small electronic implant of our identification, which would coincidentally include your medical authorizations for work?
It’s just a metal detector….
it’s just taking off your shoes…
it’s just wearing a mask….
it’s just a vaccination…..
it’s just a COVID passport…
it’s always, “just”.
The federal government is attempting to set up a federal work authorization standard for private businesses. Non-compliance means you cannot work, or you lose your existing job if your employer goes along with the government demand. THAT alone should alarm everyone.
There is a particularly enraging irony in that Joe Biden’s federal DOJ and Dept of Labor do not enforce employment eligibility authorization for illegal aliens based on legal status, while at the same time the Biden Dept. of Labor is putting OSHA in charge of a federal policy that will enforce vaccination requirements.
All of the federal exemptions essentially undermine the “national health emergency” argument, because if there really was such a public health emergency, there would be no exemptions at all. The application of the executive order undermines the actual cornerstone of the executive order itself. It cannot withstand scrutiny and hopefully the court will see through it.
In the interim, as the freedom coalition digs in to mount a patriotic challenge, the authoritarian attempt of the federal government, the rebellious alliance is hitting back in unique ways as noted by the airline pilots, air traffic controllers, firefighters and police. All groups holding a significant military service record. As noted, last weekend American Airlines was forced to cancel 1,700 flights due to staffing issues.
The blue-collar effort to bolster the resistance by these groups does not have to be too massive to have an impact. Remember, almost all of these leftists and elite minded communists who now operate as Democrats have no capacity for self-sufficiency. If the working class stops picking up their trash; stops mowing their lawns, shopping for them, doing their cleaning and essentially facilitating their lives, this entire group of scholastic-minded knuckleheads cannot function.
From a commonsense and logistical perspective, regardless of the federal outlook, there’s no way they can pull it off. We are the quiet, and according to those who look down their noses – the “invisible” unwashed masses. However, when it comes to keeping the gears turning, we are the majority.
We keep their shit working and just want to be left alone.
I do not know if the video from the Proctor and Gamble workers is an accurate reflection of how workers for P&G feel. However, I do know the sentiment conveyed within that video is very accurate. Only a fool would underestimate the nature of men backed into a corner and reluctantly forced to accept their new outlook; men and women with nothing left to lose…

Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm was asked what the Biden administration plan was to increase U.S. oil production. Her response is exactly what you might believe it would be from a thoroughly incompetent ideological administration. WATCH:
So what can a U.S. President and administration specifically do?
We have abundant U.S. energy resources. Quite literally the strongest in the entire world.
Permit the use of preexisting approved leases in ANWAR (Alaska) to put more volume into the Alaskan oil pipeline that is severely underutilized.
Finish the Dakota access pipeline.
Reapprove the preexisting energy leases in New Mexico, Arizona, NE Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico.
Retract the stoppage of the Keystone pipeline to permit efficient oil transport shipments from Canada.
Stop blocking the expansion of coastal oil refineries in Texas, Louisiana and Alabama (regulatory issue), as well as Northwest, Northeast and Southeast Seaboard.
Continue to develop natural gas as a clean burning fuel.
Drive Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) as an export.
None of this requires any approval from OPEC. Strategically, the all of the above approach enhances U.S. national security and diminishes the influence of Russia, China and Iran. Within six months of the above, gasoline will plummet

Everything about this interview is a case study in lies, manipulation and media attempts to cover for their corrupt ideological allies. If the background issue wasn’t so serious, it would all be a little funny. MSNBC propagandist Rachael Maddow interviews former FBI special agent Peter Strzok about the arrest of dossier source Igor Danchenko.
One funny aspect… Notice the video begins with Peter Strzok testifying about the importance of the FBI investigating the campaign of Donald J Trump. Then notice the and of the interview Peter Strzok says claims the FBI investigated the campaign of Donald J Trump are false. Strzok and Maddow don’t even see themselves, kinda funny.
Throughout the interview Strzok attempts to carefully distance the Steele Dossier from the FBI and FISA application. That technique is how Strzok attempts to push away the importance of Igor Danchenko, the source of the information in the FISA application used by Strzok to conduct surveillance on Trump. The interview is akin to watching two kids with blue hands, lips and cheeks attempting to say it wasn’t them that ate the blueberry pie.
Another hilarious point inside the argument being made by Rachael Maddow is one you can only see if you stand back away from the nonsense. The point being debated by Maddow in her weird effort to point a finger at Durham’s lengthy indictments of the participants so far, is essentially: Was the FBI STUPID or was the FBI CORRUPT?
Strzok and Maddow are claiming within their argument, while not saying it openly, that the FBI were stupid and tricked by false and manufactured evidence. Strzok even says in the interview despite the FBI inability to prove information in the Steele dossier “we could not disprove it either.” Think about that.
Peter Strzok defends himself by saying…. We could not disprove the Danchenko allegations, so we put them in a DOJ FISA application and swore to the FISA court they were true and verified.

Project Veritas founder James O’Keefe releases an alarming message. The FBI and DOJ from the Southern District of New York (SDNY) have raided the homes of Project Veritas journalists. Keep in mind, all modern background activity indicates the FBI mission is for the U.S. government what the FSB mission is for the Kremlin.
As the raid was taking place a journalist from the New York Times contacted one of the targets and asked for comment; highlighting that the FBI and DOJ had told the New York Times in advance of their raid. This is stunning. WATCH:
Two days ago CTH warned everyone this would happen: […] “in the background of every place they gather, those political activists who were handed a resounding defeat yesterday are discussing how to attack again. In defeat you can fully expect this insane crowd to become even more entrenched, even more vitriolic, even more crazy. You will see it with even bigger demands on their Big Tech and Big Government allies to crush voices of communication against their enemy.”
“They will demand more censorship, more deplatforming of their opposition; more silencing of voices, more demonetization of content platforms by their corporate allies. They will go even harder in the totalitarian direction. This is what they do. This crowd is like the scorpion in Aesop’s fable about the frog crossing the river. They are incapable of not stinging… it’s what they do.” (read more)
I have stated countless times before that an apprenticeship or on-the-job experience is superior to formal education. The curriculum is shaped by left-leaning professors who are funded by left-leaning organizations. Even a North Korean defector reported feeling that students were “choosing to be brainwashed,” and felt that the curriculum at Columbia University stifled critical thinking.
Not to mention, once you pile on the student loan debt, good luck getting out. Thanks to the Clintons repealing Glass-Steagall, student debt is non-dischargeable even in the case of bankruptcy. The costs for college continue to rise. According to a non-profit group called the College Board, college tuition would cost between $10,000 and $20,000 annually if it rose at the same rate as inflation. Instead, the cost for public tuition is now between $22,690 for in-state students to $39,510 for out-of-state students, while private schools cost around $51,690. This means that the average cost of college has increased by 2700% in the past 50 years!
Joe Biden vowed to erase some college tuition debt as a campaign promise designed to attract young voters. Unfortunately, he had no financial plan to do such a thing, and most who are educated and well-read (there is a difference), knew it was an empty promise. Companies are increasingly not requiring college degrees for new hires, but the stigma attached to not having a college degree remains prominent. The idea that we must receive formal education to be labeled as educated individuals is an antiquated concept that is causing thousands of Americans to plummet into a life of debt from which there is no escape. Prior generations could afford to go to school, buy a home, and begin families. The entire concept of the American dream has been altered due to the US university cash-grab.
The Biden Administration has continued its onslaught against political adversaries by now creating rules that workers at larger businesses will have to get vaccinated for COVID-19 by Jan. 4, 2022, or face regular testing under new federal rules. The people behind Biden do as they like because he is the one who will go down in history as a tyrant – not them. He is also imposing a $14,000 per employee per incident that they do not comply with these rules. Thi impact 84 million workers. They will then seize people’s homes and through their families out on the street to collect their fines while seizing bank accounts. The Supreme Court has abandoned the American people and they will push the nation into civil unrest.
Workers refusing to take the vaccines will be subject to regular testing and Biden wants them to pay for the cost as he introduces punitive measures as much as possible. With these vaccines being only temporary, this implies that the vaccinated will need booster shots without end. Even 25% of the White House has COVID even after being vaccinated. Biden lacks the power to mandate every individual be vaccinated so he is being as punitive as possible and will seize property and bank accounts trying to wipe out all those who oppose him.
Yet all the information coming out from Israel shows that the vaccinated are even dying and they certainly get COVID and can spread it. So why is a vaccinated person also not required to get regularly tested and wear masks? This makes no sense and it is simply a means to restrict the movement of people putting the health of the entire population at risk for a control gimmick.

Politicians are simply refusing to answer legitimate questions no matter what country we look at. I learned in health class in high school that we CANNOT cure any virus when it also resides in animals. Trudeau in Canada said he would donate vaccines to the third world to terminate COVID. Either he is outright stupid or a boldface liar or just a fraud. COVID is already in theanimal population.

When the Carter Page FISA application was originally assembled by the FBI and DOJ, there was initial hesitancy from within the DOJ National Security Division (DOJ-NSD) about submitting the application, because it did not have enough citations in evidence (the infamous ‘Woods File’). That’s why the Steele Dossier ultimately became important. It was the Steele Dossier that provided the push, the legal cover needed for the DOJ-NSD to submit the application for a Title-1 surveillance warrant against the campaign of Donald J. Trump.
When the application was finally assembled for submission to the FISA court, the head of the DOJ-NSD was John Carlin. Carlin quit working for the DOJ-NSD in late September 2016 just before the final application was submitted (October 21,2016). John Carlin was replaced by Deputy Asst. Attorney General, Mary McCord.
♦ When the FISA application was finally submitted (approved by Sally Yates and James Comey), it was Mary McCord who did the actual process of filing the application and gaining the Title-1 surveillance warrant.
A few months later, February 2017, with Donald Trump now in office as President, it was Mary McCord who went with Deputy AG Sally Yates to the White House to confront White House legal counsel Don McGahn over the Michael Flynn interview with FBI agents. The surveillance of Flynn’s calls was presumably done under the auspices and legal authority of the FISA application Mary McCord previously was in charge of submitting.
♦ At the time the Carter Page application was filed (October 21, 2016), Mary McCord’s chief legal counsel inside the office was a DOJ-NSD lawyer named Michael Atkinson. In his role as the legal counsel for the DOJ-NSD, it was Atkinson’s job to review and audit all FISA applications submitted from inside the DOJ. Essentially, Atkinson was the DOJ internal compliance officer in charge of making sure all FISA applications were correctly assembled and documented.
♦ When the anonymous CIA whistleblower complaint was filed against President Trump for the issues of the Ukraine call with President Zelensky, the Intelligence Community Inspector General had to change the rules for the complaint to allow an anonymous submission. Prior to this change, all intelligence whistleblowers had to put their name on the complaint. It was this 2019 IGIC who changed the rules. Who was the Intelligence Community Inspector General? Michael Atkinson.
Yes, after she left main justice, Mary McCord took the job of working for Chairman Jerry Nadler and Chairman Adam Schiff as the chief legal advisor inside the investigation that led to the construction of articles of impeachment. As a consequence, Mary McCord received the newly permitted anonymous whistleblower complaint from her old office colleague Michael Atkinson.
♦ During his investigation of the Carter Page application, Inspector General Michael Horowitz discovered an intentional lie inside the Carter Page FISA application (directly related to the ‘Woods File’) which his team eventually tracked to FBI counterintelligence division lawyer, Kevin Clinesmith. Eventually Clinesmith was criminally charged with fabricating evidence (changed wording on an email) in order to intentionally falsify the underlying evidence in the FISA submission.
When John Durham took the Clinesmith indictment to court, the judge in the case was James Boasberg.
♦ In addition to being a DC criminal judge, James Boasberg is also a FISA court judge who signed-off on one of the renewals for the FISA application that was submitted using fraudulent evidence fabricated by Kevin Clinesmith. In essence, now the presiding judge over the FISA court, Boasberg was the FISC judge who was tricked by Clinesmith and now the criminal court judge in charge of determining Clinesmith’s legal outcome. Judge Boasberg eventually sentenced Clinesmith to 6 months probation.
As an outcome of continued FISA application fraud and wrongdoing by the FBI in their exploitation of searches of the NSA database, Presiding FISC Judge James Boasberg appointed an amici curiae advisor to the court who would monitor the DOJ-NSD submissions and ongoing FBI activities.
Who did James Boasberg select as a FISA court amicus? Mary McCord.
♦ SUMMARY: Mary McCord submitted the original false FISA application to the court using the demonstrably false Dossier. Mary McCord participated in the framing of Michael Flynn. Mary McCord worked with ICIG Michael Atkinson to create a fraudulent whistleblower complaint against President Trump; and Mary McCord used that manipulated complaint to assemble articles of impeachment on behalf of the joint House Intel and Judiciary Committee. Mary McCord then took up a defensive position inside the FISA court to protect the DOJ and FBI from sunlight upon all the aforementioned corrupt activity.
You can clearly see how Mary McCord would be a person of interest if anyone was going to start digging into corruption internally within the FBI, DOJ or DOJ-NSD.
Now the latest….
YESTERDAY – In Washington DC – “Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) and the House Jan. 6 Select Committee has tapped Mary McCord, who once ran the Justice Department’s National Security Division, for representation in its fight to obtain former President Donald Trump’s White House records. (read more)
Does that sound like the action of a DC system, a Fourth Branch of government per se’, who are in the least bit worried about John Durham?
FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith, Clinton lawyer Michael Sussmann, Steele source Igor Danchenko are all external participants to the corrupt endeavors undertaken by the top levels of the White House, DOJ and FBI during their purposeful targeting of candidate Donald Trump and President Donald Trump.
Lisa Monaco is now the Deputy Attorney General. John Carlin is back inside the DOJ-NSD, and now Mary McCord is back inside a House investigative committee put together to purposefully target Donald J Trump… AGAIN!

Yesterday, CTH noted the response from Joe Biden about his DHS, HHS and DOJ agreeing to pay illegal aliens restitution was clear and specific evidence Biden had no idea it was happening. {Go Deep} The question from Fox News was the first time Biden had ever heard about the issue.
The people who really run the Executive Branch never told the White House occupant anything about the agreement, because Biden is essentially irrelevant to what they do on a daily basis.
As a result, yesterday Joe Biden called the media reporting “garbage” and said “it’s not going to happen.” Today, the White House attempted damage control and spun the issue as if Joe Biden was just not aware of the settlement amount. The strained attempt to cover for the reality was evident in Deputy Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre’s response today from the podium. WATCH:
[Transcript] … “President Biden is calling these reports about the administration paying up to $450,000 to illegal immigrants who are separated from family members “garbage.” He says it’s not going to happen. But the ACLU says that it is. So, who is right?
MS. JEAN-PIERRE: Are you talking about the question you asked him yesterday?
Q Yes.
MS. JEAN-PIERRE: So, if it saves taxpayer dollars and puts the disastrous history of the previous administration’s use of zero tolerance and family separation behind us, the President is perfectly comfortable with the Department of Justice settling with the individuals and families who are currently in litigation with the U.S. government. You know, DOJ can obviously speak more to that process. The President was — what he was reacting to was the dollar figure that was mentioned — that you mentioned to him yesterday.
As press accounts today indicate — there’s been press accounts on this — DOJ made clear to the plaintiffs that the reported figures are higher than anywhere that a settlement can land.
Again, this is a — this is something that the Department of Justice can speak to. I do not have anything more to add to this.
Q But if it’s not — if he’s not okay with $450,000, how much money is he okay giving these illegal immigrants?
MS. JEAN-PIERRE: This is some- — again, Peter, this is something that the Department of Justice is going to handle. I just laid out what he was thinking and how this is — the process was moving forward. The DOJ will talk to the specifics of this.
Q And so what changed, then, from yesterday? You’re saying that he would be “perfectly comfortable” settling with these families who broke the law to come here, but, yesterday, he said, “That’s not going to happen.”
MS. JEAN-PIERRE: First of all, let’s remember how we got here, how we got to a place where we’re dealing with families being separated. This is coming from the last administration’s cruel, inhuman, immoral — immoral policies against — against just people. It’s separating children from their families — 18-month-olds, 2-year-olds, 5-year-olds from their families.
That’s how we got here is because of the last administration. This is what we’re trying to deal with here in this administration. So, let’s be very clear of how we got here and what’s happening.
Anything else that you would like to know about this, again, I’ll — I’ll send you to the Department of Justice. I can’t speak to specifics — any more specifics on this. (read more)
