Age-stratified infection fatality rate (IFR) of COVID-19 in the non-elderly population

The largest burden of COVID-19 is carried by the elderly, and persons living in nursing homes are particularly vulnerable. However, 94% of the global population is younger than 70 years and 86% is younger than 60 years. The objective of this study was to accurately estimate the infection fatality rate (IFR) of COVID-19 among non-elderly people in the absence of vaccination or prior infection… we identified 40 eligible national seroprevalence studies covering 38 countries with pre-vaccination seroprevalence data…

The median IFR for kids is just 0.0003% so…

If your kid gets COVID, the risk is 3 in 1 million that your child will die from COVID. And that is likely an over-estimate because today all early treatment protocols are suppressed worldwide.

Forgetful Fauci’s Deposition

All Those Lies Are Hard to Keep Straight

… [December 2021]… AIER discovered a shocking revelation in emails received from a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to Fauci’s office. In early October of 2020, Dr. Francis Collins, then Director of the National Institutes of Health, ordered Fauci and his trusted lieutenant Clifford Lane to wage “a quick and devastating published take down (sic)” of the Great Barrington Declaration’s premises.

… the records… contain a partially redacted email to Deborah Birx in which Fauci speculates that Scott Atlas, his anti-lockdown foil on the White House COVID Task Force, would attempt to sway the White House into endorsing the GBD. “Over the past week I have come out very strongly publicly against the “Great Barrington Declaration,” Fauci declared – an action that he conveniently has no memory of doing, according to his statements under oath from the Missouri lawsuit deposition1Currently on-going. Transcript of Fauci’s deposition released last Monday.

… the email records we do possess contain ample evidence of Fauci’s involvement in the “take down” order, plainly contradicting his sworn deposition. In those emails we see Collins colluding with Anthony Fauci (while fantastically CCing Lawrence Tabak, Deputy Ethics Counselor at NIH) to craft talking points against the GBD in the media. Behind the scenes, we see them working with Deborah Birx to keep the GBD off of the White House COVID Task Force agenda. And we see Fauci’s instructions to Folkers to assemble a list of media op-eds attacking the GBD, with the apparent intent of parroting them back to the very same press as official talking points from the NIH.

Think about that for a minute. The Director of the National Institutes of Health all but ordered the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases to put together a smear campaign aimed at three distinguished scientists, each from an elite institution (Harvard, Stanford, and Oxford if you are keeping track at home), who were simply going where the science took them.

“And… if you tolerate this,

then your children will be next…”

Last year Conspiracy Theorists were using that Manic Street Preachers chorus as a warning.

Now, in June 2022, those we are supposed to surrender our sovereign medical choices and human rights to are advocating COVID injections for 6-months to 4-years old.1The Massacre Of The Innocents according to Toby Rogers

That these people are doing this when children are at near-zero risk from COVID2See here and here. Also this quote from question 4 (of 19) addressed to the FDA by 18 Members of Congress on June 7th: “As of April 2022, the CDC reported 484 COVID-related deaths among children ages five and under (over a two+ year period). According to the CDC there are about 24,000 deaths overall in children ages 0-5 annually.” So… an average of 242 annual “COVID-related deaths” (ie could all have died with and not from) in 0-5yr-olds is somehow considered an emergency in the context of 24,000 of that cohort dying annually anyway?? is mind-boggling enough.3At least four hypotheses seem to fit. 1) The ‘unvaccinated’ control group must be eliminated or at least minimized to hide the damage being done by the injections to the wider population. 2) This is a stepping stone to adding mRNA injections to the childhood vaccination schedule, whereupon manufacturers would be protected from liability forever. 3) They are still in the grip of the COVID mass formation. 4) It is another attempt at population control (which is on some peoples agendas – and has been attempted using vaccines before).

But check out HOW these people use The ScienceTM to make their case!

The C.D.C. Isn’t Publishing Large Portions of the Covid Data It Collects

Dr. Paul Alexander reminds us of the New York Times piece from February.

The headline message might cause some to question the CDC’s integrity. Potentially helpful from a freedom lovers point of view.

However, the snippet he shared also implies better control of the virus could be achieved and more lives saved if we just had more info. Which is unfortunate. But also possibly deliberate on the part of the newspaper.
