People, I give you @meganranney (who blocked me ages ago): the lunatic 🤡appointed by our gov @GovDanMcKee to choose a new RIDOH health director @RIHEALTH 🧵
Ranney is a fear mongering shill who belongs in a cheesy pandemic Netflix movie as the evil Dr Doom. “We are never going back to a pre-pandemic reality!”
But, OMG OMG! She’s super professional!
She has great timing and pandemic predictive powers too.
She hates kids but you know, kids are a scourge when it comes to public health.
And by "last in everything", I mean things that politicians can ruin. Last in nation or nearly so every year in business friendliness, infrastructure, education, etc. Decades of single party default rule will do that. RI election day = "just pull the blue lever" for most.

Why would a C19 vax increase NON-C19 all-cause mortality in the unvaxed, but decrease NON-C19 mortality in the vaxed? @profnfenton and colleagues think they know, and it has nothing to do with the vax. In fact a placebo would show the same effect IF deaths are miscategorized.
The video above👆 recreates Prof Fenton's analysis where a placebo vax is rolled out rapidly in a population. Expected all-cause mortality rates (50/100k) are equal for unvaxed or vaxed...
...but if vaxed folks who die the first week after vax are classified as unvaxed...we see an apparent (but false) increase in unvaxed mortality and a decrease in vaxed mortality. This is a classic example of how sloppy data lead to sloppy conclusions. And all the data is sloppy.
In what is hopefully just one of many unelected public health tyrants being forced to resign as their failed policies’ can no longer be rationalized, RI’s health director Dr Alexander-Scott is out. The sorry history of her Covid “rule of terror” follows 🧵:
Dr Alexander-Scott’s greatest hit was her last: firing healthcare workers who chose not to be vaxed while allowing infected but vaxed workers to return to work as RI’s hospitals groaned under a self-imposed worker shortage.
Meanwhile RI has had one of the worst C19 tolls in the world as Dr Alexander-Scott “ruled” by assertion and obfuscation. No accountability, no adaptation, no apologies. Public health via political dogma might best describe Dr Alexander-Scott’s tenure.
“How a mass psychosis can occur: a population first needs to be induced into an intense state of fear or anxiety by threats real, imagined or fabricated. Once in a state of panic the door is open for either a positive or negative reaction to unfold.”->
“If a society is composed of self reliant, resilient and inwardly strong individuals, a positive reaction can take place. But...”
“If a society is composed of mainly weak, insecure and helpless individuals a descent into the delusions of a mass psychosis becomes a real possibility.”
If you are still complying with or reinforcing draconian measures against your own children, this is all your fault. The jerks in the media aren’t going to help your poor kid. Fauci won’t help him. Politicians won’t help him. Only you can save him.
And by saving, I mean saving his future, his childhood experiences, his life. Not from C19. From the folks mentioned above. They have been selling your kid’s soul for their own benefit for the last 2 years.
Please ask yourself what has this done for your kid? When will it stop?
Time is running out. None of the ringleaders of this fiasco give a rat’s rear about your kid, his future, his mental health or yours. Your kid is at exponentially greater risk from continuing this charade then he is from C19.
How are they flagging tests + for Omicron? S-gene deletion. Meaning a PCR test that tests for 3 genes (S=spike protein, N=nucleocapsid protein, ORF1ab=accessory proteins) shows a positive result for only ORF and N.
But I found some ONS data, and I have questions 🤔
🧵
My initial question was, how common were S-gene deletion positive tests BEFORE Omicron?
If they were common, are they subtracting this base rate from the new rate of supposed Omicron positives?
And if they were common, how are we certain that Omicron "started" in mid Nov?
Here is the answer to question number 1: S gene deletion PCR tests were running 0-33% of all tests pre-Omicron. 🤔
