This escalated quickly.

From October 18th to October 20th, the CDC reported 260,881 new Covid cases and 5,476 new deaths (though it was 5,111 according to the difference in totals.)

“New deaths in last past week” covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tra… CDC Covid data tracker screenshot from October 18, 2022 3:28CDC Covid data tracker as of October 20, 2022 9:23pm Total c
Last week there were 2,663 Covid deaths reported.
The CDC will be reporting weekly going forward, despite Covid deaths ::checks notes:: doubling?

Are they clearing a backlog? What is this?
Soooo can anyone explain this, or…?
Remember, only 4%-5% of Covid cases are currently reported…

We have absolutely NO IDEA how much Covid there is, until deaths suddenly double & hospitals are overflowing. Flying blind.
Paging @greg_travis
🎯 We’re led to believe the mass disease that is *literally everywhere* is all Not-Covid, so no need to take precautions. Almost 5500 Covid deaths were reported last week, while countless others are quietly disabled.

Meanwhile, media won’t mention “Covid” or “masks.”
It feels very much like we are frogs, cheerfully swimming in a pot of water, about to be boiled alive.

I tend to believe we are FINALLY experiencing the consequences of ignoring unprecedented record disease/disability/death for 5 years, but we are blaming this very predictable collapse on other things & individuals, while dutifully pretending all our problems have nothing to do with the choices we made over the last 5 years.

The wounds are self-inflicted. Sadly, Both Sides of the political aisle work directly for corporations & billionaires, not us. We live & die to maintain their record corporate profits, & we exist at their pleasure. We are becoming too expensive to maintain in the present conditions, especially since everyone is sick & getting sicker. So we turn a blind eye as people die en masse. As middle schoolers die in public, we call it “natural causes.” As young adults die in record numbers, we call it “God’s Plan.” As Boomers die off while still working multiple jobs to survive (instead of retiring), we pretend it’s all very normal. Eventually we will be replaced by AI so the elite can continue living well, uninterrupted, despite the poors dying out. But we won’t get the privilege of seeing it coming or calling it what it is, we will be forced to pretend we can’t possibly know why it’s happening, & told we can’t possibly afford to find a solution.

The End.
I made a thread. When we started hearing American worker productivity was declining at the fastest rate in 75 years, media began churning out anti-WFH articles with headlines like, “Remote Work Comes With Daytime Drugs & Drinking Habits.”

The wounds are self-inflicted.
For a brief moment in time, we acknowledged “Covid looks to have permanently severed something,” and then we pretended it away.

The pretending is finally catching up to us.

“There were a dozen or so other teams in her lab working to save lives & make food safer. They all got the axe today.

My wife says she is concerned about all the chemicals & biological strains in the labs. Will the special strains be lost? There are dangerous microbes such as botulinum.”
The public has no idea the US has been reporting RECORD food-borne outbreaks for several years now. Covid is making this infinitely worse, & all the upheaval will accelerate collapse. The accelerationists are driving this train. 🧵

Seeing a lot of posts that go “What’s wrong with Justin Bieber?” & “Justin Bieber needs a conservatorship.”

Private equity has been investing in conservatorships/guardianships at the same time society is repeatedly infected with a neurotropic novel pathogen. PLANS ARE IN MOTION, & it won’t be limited to celebrities—they’re just publicly trialing these strategies on celebrities first.
Thread - who remembers when he first got sick & his 20-something year old wife had a stroke?
“Private equity firms are buying up disability services as well as investing in guardianship & conservatorship...

They’ll imprison you using the legal system, then you pay them for the pleasure. They’ll take away all your assets & shove you in a nursing home or LTC facility…”

From climate collapse to Covid to any of the many imminent threats facing humanity, they’re ALL using Big Tobacco’s playbook.

My post about contaminated organs in the U.S. has been throttled, so I’ll use words. A Michigan man recently died of rabies in Ohio after a contaminated organ transplant. Since 2021, the U.S. has ignored TWO tuberculosis outbreaks linked to bone grafts. Since 2021, Americans have died after receiving COVID-contaminated organs. Several months ago, the U.S. approved HIV-infected kidney & liver transplants. We’re going down.
We don’t actually know if the rabies death was a man, I don’t know why I assumed that. The article says “resident.” Apologies.
Sorry if I’m posting the same threads over and over, but I’m going to keep posting them until they are seen by a wider audience.
