THE COVID-19 BLACKOUT HAS BEGUN: As the great readers of my page know, I have been sounding the alarm bells along with many others in the community, that world powers are looking to "move on" (ignore) from COVID-19 and will begin skewing data. This is well underway now.
AMERICA: The CDC made some extreme changes to their health guidance/policies while the world watches Ukraine. I hate to say it, I don't think that's a coincidence. It appears world powers are using the Ukraine Invasion to push these changes through.
CDC completely changed the metrics we use to gauge where masks are recommended, from cases to hospitalizations. CDC has done a lot in this new change to health policy, people are still cutting through it all.
CDC has completely abandoned COVID protocols essentially is what the change is, only recommending 20% of the population to continue wearing a mask, telling immunocompromised individuals to ask their doctor if they should wear a mask. Sounds like Wall Street wrote these guidelines
LONDON: London is following the US approach to masking, who are also beginning to dump public masking, especially in underground transportation. If this has not happened where you live, give it time, it will. Massive campaign underway right now.
Infact, London took it even further than the US has, ending all free COVID testing by April 1st (no pun intended) and also eliminating all remaining restrictions earlier this week. news.sky.com/story/covid-re…
Poland, Slovakia, and Iceland are also hopping on the denial train, ending all COVID restrictions. These are the building blocks for them to eliminate COVID data entirely, in fact, I fully expect all testing to cease very soon. Unless you guys wake up to the game they play.
The situation in Ukraine is extremely important. However, we must walk and chew gum at the same time. We must multi-task. Once those things are gone, they're gone for good. Raise hell. This is your life they're gambling with. Trying to brush this entire pandemic under the rug.
South Korea is having a massive surge, hands down the largest of the entire pandemic. And I haven't seen a single tweet or news article even talking about it. This is a huge problem guys. This insanity needs to stop.
Minimizers are dancing with joy, they're winning the war. But that doesn't mean this fight is over. Now, more than ever, you need to use your resources, and continue to share information within the network. Reporting on COVID-19 has never been harder, or more important.
Deaths are soaring in South Korea as well, and yet not a single word out of anyone about it. How can this be allowed to continue? These are human beings, not statistics, and every single day this virus continues to kill at an unprecedented rate.
Infamous minimizers have been hard at work, downplaying and completely dismissing BA.2 as a threat to global health. I won't put names, if you know, you know. (Furry) Ask yourself why this is? Did we all just forget Sato's research into BA.2 recently?
@SystemsVirology recently published an in-depth pre-print on Omicron BA.2, one of the best in the business. This pre-print was immediately downplayed, and the network of minimizers went to work right away, spinning the study and changing the narrative. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
We have discussed this pre-print in depth previously on the page.Instead of listening to Sato, minimizers have been circulating the study published from @SSI_dk instead.
Denmark has serious credibility concerns that have been raised the last 6 weeks, who have absolutely no incentive to be unbiased about whether or not BA.2 poses a threat, simply because Denmark is the country who led this push for 0 COVID restrictions.
If BA.2 is a real threat, and Denmark happened to know that, you honestly believe they would come out and say "just kidding guys, we were wrong! reinstating restrictions now!" Absolutely not. They would spin, downplay, and change the rules. Just like @CDC
Sato Labs has no incentive to lie about the threat Omicron BA.2 potentially poses to global health. Simply because they are not the government of Japan, whenever a government study comes out and says everything is great, you need to ask yourself why.
As the sun sets on another week, we inch ever closer to being completely in the dark against a rapidly mutating, airborne, SARS coronavirus, which we do not even understand, especially the long term consequences of infection.
Please get this information out there. I call on all scientists, doctors, media outlets, to band together and continue to get this information out there. I refuse to live in a world where we pretend this doesn't exist. Millions of lives are on the line. Stay strong!!! 😷 💉

ZERO COVID CHINA GRAPPLING WITH BA.2: Recently, over in China, it appears they are having a new uptick in infections over the last 7 days. Genomic surveillance data is showing that BA.2 is beginning to become a dominant strain over in China. Image
China has limited information (at least that I can find, please share resources if you have them) regarding genomes, however, I was able to find the chart above. Now, when I say uptick, it is a rather small uptick, but when talking China, is pretty significant.
China is hands down the most strict country in the world for COVID-19 restrictions. Especially now with the rest of the world dropping their restrictions. They had a minor uptick during the Olympics, will be interesting to monitor this. Image

BA. 2 THE NEXT VARIANT OF CONCERN? Shockwaves being made from the Pre-Print we discussed here on the page, experts are beginning to agree, BA. 2 is likely to receive the dreaded "VoC" title.
"In summary, our data suggests that BA. 2 would be the most concerning variant to global health." 🚨 this is coming from the Kato institute, one of the most prestigious in the world. This is very dire language.
"It is evident that the spread of BA. 2 can be a serious issue for global health in the near future" 🚨 keep in mind this is a prestigious institute using this tone, not me.

BREAKING : Another worrying variant is emerging in Denmark, BA.2 + H78Y, has appeared in recent genomic surveillance, with a mutation found on the ORF3A spike protein, which is believed by many experts to induce apoptosis in cells (cell destruction) (chart from @DrEricDing )
According to this study, ORF3A protein is associated with COVID-19s immune evasive capacities, given that this H78Y mutation is on this spike protein, we must monitor closely the impact to vaccines and prior BA 1 infection. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
The ORF3A protein is also associated with apoptosis, which is cell death due to the protein using cells as host to further replicate itself. This ties into the immune evasive properties discussed above. It is also tied into the viruses pathogenicity 👇 shorturl.at/derwH

Deaths approaching all time highs over in BA 2 ravaged Denmark. According to a pre print out of Japan, BA 2 is more infectious and lethal than BA 1. You can see the evidence of this publication in the image below.
If you missed the Japan publication on Omicron BA.2, here is a beautiful analysis of the study by @EnemyInAState , a dear colleague of mine. Please read and share! This is crucial information, and we can see its impacts in live time in Denmark. 👇
Despite the US large # of deaths, if we gauge on a per capita basis, Denmark is about to surpass the US level of deaths from COVID-19, with a population over 57 times smaller than the US, this is not something to be proud of.

BREAKING: President Joe Biden has extended the COVID-19 national emergency for the US, citing "a continued threat to public health and safety" , breaking away from Ally nations who are seemingly abandoning all COVID protocol.
This is in stark contrast to European ally nations who are getting rid of all COVID-19 restrictions entirely, and claiming COVID-19 is NOT a threat to public health and safety. Let's take a look at a few of them now. Denmark is definitely number one. bbc.com/news/world-eur…
England is set to lift all restrictions "in the coming weeks" in a campaign being pushed by Boris Johnson. nytimes.com/2022/02/09/wor…
