There are 100M+ Americans with natural immunity to COVID -- like me -- that have been left behind in the debate over vaccines.

Do we need a booster shot? If so, why? When? Which shot? One dose or two? Based on what data?

Biden & Fauci are marching ahead with utter indifference. Image
Set aside whether you think those with natural COVID immunity should get vaccinated.

Here's a small study that says recovered COVID patients only need one shot -- not two -- of the Pfizer vaccine.

That's important information. For 100M+ Americans!

Meanwhile, tell us why, @NIHDirector, the 100M+ Americans with natural immunity should get vaccinated when a July 2021 study *you funded* said our immunity is "durable and broad."

We deserve an answer beyond, "Shut up, stop thinking, and get jabbed."

Upshot: I'm neither pro nor anti vaxx.

I'm a former CIA officer who is hardwired to make decisions based off of reason, logic, critical thinking, and data.

I do not respond to "shut up and do what I say."

Neither should 100M+ Americans.

We're all likely to get COVID -- vaccinated or not -- and the resulting natural immunity is key to getting this pandemic under control.

These are just a few takeaways from this remarkable, brutally honest, and well-sourced essay.

Let's break it down.

nymag.com/intelligencer/…
Harvard epidemiologist Michael Mina makes the compelling case that we're all going to be exposed to COVID -- regardless of vaccination status. Image
As he reminds us, the vaccines weren't intended to stop transmission of the virus.

In other words, the "Stop the Spread!" campaign was -- and remains -- a farce. Image

COVID vaccine passports and mandates aren’t an academic issue for me.

They are a matter of life or death, especially if my Govt effectively forces me to take the vaccine or be purged from society.

Let me explain why. Image
Last December, I came down with COVID.

It was a modest sickness, as science would have forecasted.

I wasn’t obese, not over 65, and had no other co-morbidities.

I should have sailed through the sickness without complication. Image
Shortly after recovering, an artery in my neck began to split.

Doctors were confused. It was spontaneous; no injury proceeded it.

The uncertain view was I had a rare — and unexplainable — COVID injury.

I went in for emergency surgery, got a stent, and started blood thinners.

This story about a recent Chinese defector has the potential to change the course of the nation — and world.

From China’s spies in the US (politicians, journalists, intel officers) to China’s COVID secrets, this is a massive development.

Just incredible.
redstate.com/jenvanlaar/202…
The alleged defector is Dong Jingwei, a vice minister of State Security, responsible for counterintelligence efforts in China.

What he has in his head — plus any material he spirited out — is a once in a lifetime opportunity to understand & counter our greatest enemy.

A sample:
There will almost certainly be a special task force set up to debrief and verify his intel, plus hundreds of resulting FBI / Intel Community investigations.

Worried about mutations? No need, says MIT.

“Data from people who’ve had COVID-19 suggests that T-cell response should provide ample protection against most of the SARS-CoV-2 variants.”

Same is true for those vaccinated.
And in the rare event you get reinfected with COVID-19, what happens?

Not much.

Some 93% of those who did in a UK study were totally asymptomatic. (bit.ly/3f9NOL0)

In other words, the immune system works on this virus and variants, as expected.
And, it’s worth repeating, if you get COVID-19 even without the vaccine, the overwhelming majority of people survive without complication.

(The obese do not fare as well.)

From the study:

Societies must not “shift blame for obesity to the individual.”

If that’s your starting point — if we mustn’t examine how individual choice has a bearing on individual health — then there’s no dialogue to be had.

The study becomes but a propaganda tool.
Curiously, the study ignores other communities that don’t struggle with obesity.

Asian American obesity rates are around 17%, for example.

Certainly they are a people of color that experience racism & are largely urban.

Odd that the authors mostly ignored that community.
Also ignored: Rural America has horrendous obesity rates across racial lines.

The reasons are complex, but data match my own rural experience: we eat too much, and unhealthy things.

We also stopped working our land. It’s a largely mechanized process now.

There’s a path back to conservative victory in 2022 and beyond.

Democrats see it. And they’re very nervous.

Here’s what they see, how they plan to cheat — add more states! — and how the GOP can fight back.

(1/7)
nymag.com/intelligencer/…
First, the Left quietly acknowledges that there’s zero truth to support the Dem talking point that Trump / the GOP are racist or nativist.

In the 2020 election, nonwhite voters trended towards Trump / GOP bigly.

(+2% Black, +9% Hispanic, +5% Asian).
Why then did Democrats win the 2020 Presidential race?

Beyond electoral irregularities, the GOP lost some White voters, largely college-educated Whites, but also a critically small number of non-college educated Whites.
