December 2: “Why is bird flu so mild?”

We are normalizing H5N1. Public consent is being manufactured in real time. Our society is very sick. amp.theguardian.com/australia-news…Guardian: Purcell and her colleagues examined more than 1,500 research papers to identify any confirmed cases of bird flu in pregnant women. They found 30 such cases across China, Vietnam, Cambodia and the US associated with different strains and outbreaks. Published in Emerging Infectious Diseases, the review found that 90% of women infected with bird flu during pregnancy died, and almost all of their babies (87%) died with them. Of the babies who survived, most were born prematurely. “What it highlights to us is that whilst the risk of avian influenza becoming the next human pandemic is t...

When the “Why is bird flu so mild?” article was published, a Canadian teen was in ICU with H5N1. The teen has been in critical condition for over a month. The new H5N1 case in Louisiana is the same strain. A California child attended daycare while H5N1 positive.

NUMEROUS H5N1 cases reported in the U.S. have no identifiable source.

We’ve also been ignoring this event. US hospitals got rid of all their public health precautions & decided on surgical masks for airborne pathogens. This is going to end very badly.

“In New York, a mother with no history of drug use lost custody of her toddler & newborn for 5 months after she tested positive for fentanyl that the hospital had given her in her epidural.”

This state-sanctioned violence inflicts a very specific form of trauma that people don’t often recover from. themarshallproject.org/2024/12/11/pre…Marshall Project: FILED 6:00 a.m. EST 12.11.2024 FEATURE Hospitals Gave Patients Meds During Childbirth, Then Reported Them For Positive Drug Tests Mothers were reported after they were given medications used routinely for pain or in epidurals, to reduce anxiety or to manage blood pressure during cesarean sections. When I had my 3rd child over a decade ago, I was on a controlled medication that is stigmatized, but perfectly safe in pregnancy. My doctor was aware, it was no big deal, & she was very kind, but the hospital still called CPS when I tested positive, even though I told them I was on it. They insinuated I must be a drug addict, & it was the most traumatic experience of my life. My father in law had been the OBGYN chief of staff at that very hospital before he passed away 2 months before my kid was born. CPS interrogated me after my C-section. The baby tested negative for the prescription drug, but they wanted to test meconium. Nurses stalked me—posted up outside my room, coming in every 10 minutes waiting to collect the meconium—& I fell the fuck apart. I had my doctor’s cell phone number & I called her to come intervene. She marched up there and SCREAMED at the nursing staff. It was the most uncomfortable moment of my life. CPS cleared me, but I will NEVER recover from that experience. Ever. It radicalized me.

In 2020, we heard “the model for HIV treatment, a cocktail of antiviral drugs, may be a good bet for those with mild illness,” but repurposed HIV drugs wouldn’t make our corporate overlords mad bank, so we decided to infect everyone instead. China has been giving people repurposed HIV drugs for COVID since 2022. THREAD.

If we don’t change course, society is going to collapse.

Since November, entire fleets of “drones” accompanied by mysterious fixed-wing aircraft have been flying over New Jersey military installations, water reservoirs, electric transmission lines, rail stations, & police departments. They’ve also been flying over U.S. military bases in England. The FBI is now investigating. Fighter planes have reportedly chased them. The government is apparently puzzled.

This app keeps showing me lengthy threads filled with puzzled people who can’t figure out why their Covid infections are lasting much longer than expected—like weeks & weeks—but I can’t respond or repost because I’m blocked & accounts are locked. Everyone forgets Covid’s original disease course was 3 weeks to a month, & we all agreed on that. Then the CDC trotted out a 10-day isolation period for a weeks long virus. In Dec. 2021, the CEO of Delta Airlines singlehandedly shortened Covid’s disease course by demanding a 5 day isolation period. We’ve been pretending Covid only lasts a week ever since. It has NEVER lasted a week, but the CDC lied & now we coexist with RECORD disability & death & everyone is always sick. Nothing will change because we live and die for corporate profits. The End. And some people NEVER stop testing positive.

I’m a Millennial with profound Covid-related medical complications. I often hear older people exchanging medical stories, & they’ll tell me, “Don’t get old!” When I say I’m half their age with more medical problems than them after 2 Covid infections—literally going from running 5-6 miles a day, swimming, teaching yoga, & sailing to bed-bound & expecting premature death—everyone changes the subject. In 2021, we learned SARS-CoV-2 accelerates biological aging. 🧵

The U.S. expertly ignored the largest increase in pediatric mortality in over 50 years, & we’re still killing kids en masse. VCU: MARCH 13, 2023  Child and teen mortality in the U.S. experiences largest increase in decades  More than 20 years of mortality data revealed that the pediatric death rate rose sharply between 2019 and 2021, offsetting years of progress in medicine and public health. These stories are OBSCENELY common but mainstream media usually only covers like one of these stories at the beginning of each school semester, & then they ignore it the rest of the time.

I’m seeing so many Democrats panic about the incoming administration’s public health stance after spending the last 3 years pretending COVID no longer exists amid record disability & death. There was ZERO public education, & the newly disabled were subjected to Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell & abandoned by society. Amid RECORD communicable disease—record TB, syphilis/congenital syphilis & other STIs, strep, mosquito-borne diseases, RSV, pertussis, drug resistance, record foodborne pathogens, etc—NO ONE SAID A THING. There was only silence since a Democrat was in power. NO ONE protested living & dying for corporate profits, or transferring workers’ rights back to employers, or the MASSIVE wealth transfer from the bottom to the top, & we deserve everything that is coming. As someone who was disabled by Covid and abandoned by government FIVE LONG YEARS AGO, I already accepted my fate. I have nothing left to lose, & I no longer care what people think. I refuse to go quietly. Both Sides are working for the same very wealthy people at the very top of the food chain, the very people who got us here & keep us here.

“Sir Elton John has said he's been unable to finish his new album because he is still struggling with his eyesight after getting an infection in July.

He has not been able to see out of his right eye for the past four months, & his left eye is ‘not the greatest.’”

Covid causes IMMENSE eye/ear/head/neck damage & dysfunction, but we seldom discuss it. 🧵 Sigh. One of my parents developed double detached retinas after Covid. I have two new eye diagnoses since Covid x2. They thought my kid had anisocoria, but it resolved. Covid damages the eyes, & we’ve known since 2020.

The WHO’s Director-General appears to be falling by the wayside. We know acute labyrinthitis is an early manifestation of Covid.

A startling percentage of the U.S. wholeheartedly believes the End Times are here, & mass death is a good & expected outcome.

But has anyone ever noticed we’re led to believe billionaires are the exception? We’re told they believe they are “destined to inherit the Earth.” Some even expect to *collaborate* with Christian Jesus upon what we’re told will be his much anticipated return. They are building island fortresses & sprawling bunkers with fiery moats, water cannons, bowling alleys, & all the amenities one can dream of. Meanwhile, there is RECORD wealth inequality amid RECORD profits, RECORD death, & rapidly dwindling resources.

These people are not gods, they are simply random dudes with nefarious personal agendas, too much money, & a crippling fear of death. Their driving force in life is to break everything & kill everyone in order to achieve absolute power—& they “actively seek the End Game”—yet we are still forced to hand over ALL our power & resources to them. They cannot see they are going to kill themselves off in the process of killing the rest of us off. Best of luck with everything, fellas! 🧵 From a 2022 article titled: “The super-rich ‘preppers’ planning to save themselves from the apocalypse”

“Instead of just lording over us forever, however, the billionaires at the top of these virtual pyramids actively seek the endgame.” theguardian.com/news/2022/sep/…Guardian: Yet this Silicon Valley escapism—let’s call it The Mindset—encourages its adherents to believe that the winners can somehow leave the rest of us behind.

Nor have they ever before had the technologies through which to programme their sensibilities into the very fabric of our society.

I want to tell you what happened when I didn’t watch ANY U.S. mainstream media in the weeks/months leading up to the election. My VPN was connected through the UK, so no campaign ads at all, & Internet searches were UK-based too. As such, I didn’t get propagandized. A lot of the time, I had absolutely no idea what people were talking about. When you gaze upon a U.S. election without the propaganda programming, a lot of the official narratives media/political campaigns focus on aren’t relevant or make no sense, but the point is to prey on people & to manipulate them. Neither side focuses on the issues & imminent threats facing humanity, & Both Sides get whipped into a frenzy. I gleefully participated in the Two Sides distractions from 2016-2021, because I could not see I, too, was propagandized. Billionaires & corporations own the media/social media doing the propagandizing, & they control both political parties too. They are moving the public around like pieces on a chess board. It’s so sad to watch everyone fall for Divide & Conquer because humanity is running out of time. What is occurring here is so clear to me.

Everyone is conveniently leaving this app ahead of the H5N1 pandemic. This app was a central source for public health communications & COVID data internationally, & the powers-that-be have spent the last 4 years trying to break it for this reason. There have been waves of coordinated attacks on scientists & The Sick & Suffering, driving wedges between allies & driving experts off the app. We have been Divided & Conquered on purpose, & our corporate overlords are preparing to freely exploit humanity for the duration of the H5N1 pandemic. Covid was merely a trial run. I’m also fascinated by the way that disabled & mask-wearing individuals have been *systematically* targeted by years of coordinated attacks in order to isolate & divide us. Group after group is manipulated into aggressively coming for us. (Big Business is behind it, bet.)

They have been trying to kill this app for years because it poses a direct threat to the status quo. They’re coming for TikTok too.

Oh well. Perhaps we’ll have better luck in the next lifetime. I won’t be posting two places simultaneously, & if everyone leaves this app that’s the end of the line for me.

As predicted, people care about public health again since Democrats lost. People who gleefully ditched precautions & abandoned their neighbors are now worried. Scientists who haven’t said shit about Covid or pandemics or public health for the last year & a half are now back to their regularly scheduled warnings without skipping a beat. Suddenly media is publishing Covid data. Suddenly everyone is worried about LongCovid patients. Suddenly H5N1 is an imminent threat. Where have people been? We have been SICK, SUFFERING, & DYING amid RECORD disease, disability, & death for 5 years while everyone played Pretend Normal for politics. LongCovid patients have never been counted & we can’t even acquire proper healthcare. It’s all so gross. Then there’s all the people who are leaving the app & loudly announcing they won’t be participating in society or social media anymore. Meanwhile, people are dying in droves. Doomed, we’re doomed. I have had 5 years to accept my fate, so I’m just a bystander here, but people need to get serious because the stakes are extremely high. We’re being culled while everyone plays games & fights with allies instead of the people at the top who are sentencing us to premature death.
