New email dump showing Anthony Fauci and Francis Collins coordinating a propaganda campaign to attack the Great Barrington declaration last October. More coming soon so here's a teaser...

4:33 PM · Dec 17, 2021
It appears Fauci and Collins don't trust the veracity of their own positions on Covid, or they wouldn't be so concerned about the scientists making the GB declaration. They just don't like it when anyone - no matter how expert and well qualified - disagrees with them and their emphasis on vaccines, perhaps.  :shrug:

The Great Barrington declaration is this:
Quote
As infectious disease epidemiologists and public health scientists we have grave concerns about the damaging physical and mental health impacts of the prevailing COVID-19 policies, and recommend an approach we call Focused Protection.

Coming from both the left and right, and around the world, we have devoted our careers to protecting people. Current lockdown policies are producing devastating effects on short and long-term public health. The results (to name a few) include lower childhood vaccination rates, worsening cardiovascular disease outcomes, fewer cancer screenings and deteriorating mental health – leading to greater excess mortality in years to come, with the working class and younger members of society carrying the heaviest burden. Keeping students out of school is a grave injustice.

Keeping these measures in place until a vaccine is available will cause irreparable damage, with the underprivileged disproportionately harmed.

Fortunately, our understanding of the virus is growing. We know that vulnerability to death from COVID-19 is more than a thousand-fold higher in the old and infirm than the young. Indeed, for children, COVID-19 is less dangerous than many other harms, including influenza.

As immunity builds in the population, the risk of infection to all – including the vulnerable – falls. We know that all populations will eventually reach herd immunity – i.e.  the point at which the rate of new infections is stable – and that this can be assisted by (but is not dependent upon) a vaccine. Our goal should therefore be to minimize mortality and social harm until we reach herd immunity.  ...
Read entire declaration

I'm guessing Fauci, et al., don't like statements like this:
Quote
Why are so many people afraid of COVID-19?

Unfortunately, the public health messaging about COVID-19 around the world has created many misperceptions that have spread fear. While older people underestimate their risk of COVID-19 mortality, young people greatly overestimate their mortality risk. Better public health messaging that does not spread unfounded fears based on anecdotes would help correct this situation.

Speaking of stupid email tricks, why the heck are Mark Zuckerberg and Tony Fauci email buddies? Maybe I should start emailing Dr. Fraud, too. I know at least as much about vaccines as Zuckernerd.

EXC: New Fauci-Zuckerberg Emails Reveal Offer of ‘Data Reports’ To Aid Lockdown Policies, Vaccine Development.
by Natalie Winters and Raheem J. Kassam
December 14, 2021

In private emails between Mark Zuckerberg and Anthony Fauci – obtained exclusively by The National Pulse – the Facebook founder and CEO offered to send “data reports” on users to “facilitate decisions” about COVID-19 lockdowns.

The revelation is a stark example of how Big Tech corporates and government can easily collude using user data to restrict the liberties of the general public.

In the exchange, Zuckerberg insists: “I want to make sure you have all the resources you need to expedite the development of a vaccine.”

Zuckerberg – whose personal foundation referenced in the email plowed hundreds of millions of dollars into securing a victory for then-candidate Joe Biden in 2020 – offered the assistance to the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) Director just one month after the pair had connected over emails that were redacted by the U.S. government.  ...

The exchange comes amidst separate emails between the Facebook CEO and NIAID director discussing the social media platform’s “Coronavirus Information Hub” and how to control the narrative around the pandemic.

When Senator Marsha Blackburn raised the matter earlier this year, Fauci denied knowledge of interactions with the Facebook chief. ...

@PhilWMagness

Fauci responds immediately by circulating an article against the GBD from that austere scientific authority, @WiredUK


The Fauci-endorsed Wired article is noteworthy for having one of the single worst hot-takes of the entire pandemic. It declared in October 2020 that the GBD should be ignored, because lockdowns were a thing of the past and would not be returning!

The next day, Fauci sends Collins an angry rant against the GBD in the @TheNation by @gregggonsalves.
Collins approves.

Over the weekend, Collins launches the smear campaign against the GBD in the Washington Post. ...
Collins and Fauci email each other about the WaPo hit, with Fauci quipping that the White House was "too busy with other things to worry about this" - perhaps an election reference? - and therefore would not push back on the anti-GBD campaign.

Gee, you'd think these experts in infectious diseases wouldn't be so hostile to the idea that herd immunity is even a possibility. In that vein, see Op-Ed: Why Did Fauci Move the Herd Immunity Goal Posts?

Stunning emails reveal Fauci, NIH chief discussing ‘quick and devastating take down’ of anti-lockdown experts
December 19, 2021 | Jon Dougherty

Shocking emails between Dr. Anthony Fauci and the outgoing head of the National Institutes of Health, Dr. Frances Collins, indicate that the pair conspired to discredit an alternate strategy to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic recommended by thousands of experts that did not rely on widespread, enduring lockdowns.

The emails — some of which were posted to Twitter by Phil Magness, the research faculty and interim research and education director at the American Institute for Economic Research — show that Fauci, the Biden administration’s chief medical adviser and head of the National Institute of Allergies and Infectious Diseases, colluded with his boss on a “devastating takedown” of the “Great Barrington Declaration.”

“Current lockdown policies are producing devastating effects on short and long-term public health,” the declaration states. “The results (to name a few) include lower childhood vaccination rates, worsening cardiovascular disease outcomes, fewer cancer screenings and deteriorating mental health – leading to greater excess mortality in years to come, with the working class and younger members of society carrying the heaviest burden. Keeping students out of school is a grave injustice.

This story is getting some legs - not among the American news media, of course.

'There needs to be a quick and devastating take down': Emails show how Fauci and head of NIH worked to discredit three experts who penned the Great Barrington Declaration which called for an end to lockdowns

    *The emails show Fauci and NIH Director Francis Collins attempting to coordinate a 'devastating takedown' of the Great Barrington Declaration (GBD)
    *AIER, a libertarian think tank, sponsored the GBD, which largely abandons lockdowns in favor of herd immunity strategy that allows life to return to normal
    *In an October 8 email from Collins to Fauci, the head of the NIH calls the GBD the work of 'three fringe epidemiologists' that 'seems to be getting a lot of attention'
    *Collins adds that 'there needs to be a quick and devastating published takedown of its premises. I don't see anything like that online yet - is it underway?'
    *Fauci later sends Collins multiple op-eds trashing the GBD in Wired and The Nation Magazine
    *Dr. Jay Bhattacharya - one of the authors and a DailyMail.com contributor - tweeted that he was the subject of a propaganda attack by his own government

Emails reveal how Dr. Fauci dedicated a tremendous amount of time and resources to discredit anyone who disagreed with his narrative. This is totally unsurprising if you know anything about government “scientists”. The green movement has been doing this for decades.

FOIA Emails Reveal Doctors Anthony Fauci and Francis Collins Worked to Smear Anti-Lockdown Scientists

Charlie Spiering 21 Dec 2021

Newly uncovered emails show that federal health officials Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Francis Collins launched a smear attack against a group of scientists who warned about the health dangers of public lockdowns.

Collins was deeply disturbed after a group of scientists teamed up to criticize the lockdowns and propose a different strategy to handle the pandemic: Protect the elderly and the vulnerable and allow children and young people to return to work and school.

The statement released by a group of scientists was called the “Great Barrington Declaration,” and caught the attention of some in President Donald Trump’s administration.

Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar and Scott Atlas, a neuroradiologist advising Trump on the pandemic, met with the group of scientists.

Collins appeared deeply upset.

“There needs to be a quick and devastating published takedown of its premises,” Collins warned in an October 2020 email from Collins to Fauci and other officials.

WSJ Slams Fauci-Collins Devious Stifling of Coronavirus Debate

The Wall Street Journal editors published an unusually harsh op-ed Tuesday accusing Drs. Anthony Fauci and Francis Collins of employing underhanded tactics to silence important scientific voices that disagreed with them over the handling of the coronavirus pandemic.

Fauci is one of the premiere practitioners of the "Noble Lie" theory, which is basically just Hitler's "Big Lie" theory dressed up in modern progressive clothing.

Fauci is an EVIL EVIL little troll. It will all come back to him. It always does. Somehow, someway, Fauci will have to face and deal with what he has done in pursuit of his own glorification, and who he is as a human being.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
This is the tip of a very large iceberg. Now just think how much more the jihad against treatment options was, and the reinforcement of the concept that made the vaccine the sole source of salvation (which persists, even though the initially stated goals of stopping the virus have not been medically achieved).

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

At a time when the U.S. needed Covid-19 dialogue between scientists, Francis Collins moved to shut it down
By Vinay Prasad
Dec. 23, 2021

This week, emails released through a Freedom of Information Act request filed by the American Institute for Economic Research revealed what I see as worrisome communication between Francis Collins, Anthony Fauci, and others within the National Institutes of Health in the fall of 2020. At issue was the Great Barrington Declaration, an open letter written in October 2020 and eventually signed by thousands of scientists. It argues that Covid-19 policy should focus on protecting the elderly and vulnerable, and largely re-open society and school for others.

At the time, Americans would have benefited from a broad debate among scientists about the available policy options for controlling the Covid-19 pandemic, and perhaps a bit of compromise. The emails tell us why that isn’t what we got. ...  Statnews

This had da*ned well be investigated by Congress if/when the Republicans take back control of Congress, and there had better be consequences for those responsible; not just stupid sound-bites from committee members.

This was just another manifestation of cancel culture. Let's face it, cancel culture invaded science in the field of climatic analysis, and for a decades, those scientists who disagree have been shouted down, first by proponents of the Anthropogenic Global Warming theories, and now by those who insist that Man is the driving force in climate variations. Using that same modus operandi, the proponents of lockdowns, masks, and even untried injections have, with abundant media assistance, silenced dissent when they could, and denigrated it when they could not, just as has been done with the concept of early onset treatments involving off the shelf combinations of drugs and supplements.
That they persist is no surprise.

Imagine:
If the Americans whose small businesses folded under lockdowns found out that the lockdowns were unnecessary...

If the schoolchildren whose educations were disrupted to their academic injury remember who insisted that happen to them unnecessarily (an entire generation)...

If those whose relatives died alone as a result of policies based on fear, hyperbolic models and projections of death, which were made nearly a result by policies which predictably amplified the number of those infected find out it was unnecessary...

If those who prove to be injured by treatments which were proclaimed as being prevention, treatments which did not work, were largely untested, with adverse results suppressed for pecuniary or political reasons discover that all this could have been avoided...

What will be the result of that?

Therefore, those who currently exercise their power over the narrative will do all in their power and some things which aren't in their legitimate spectrum of powers to preserve the narrative. That will include stealing elections, executive and even legislative overreach, and using every bit of available leverage against those judges called upon to limit those powers to ensure they do not do so.

But that will not prevail, not in the long run. Even Chaucer noted "Murder will out", and this, too, will become known.

Without the exposure, the stripping of the guilty of employment and status, this will continue, but even more the reaction of those who have unnecessarily suffered as a result is unpredictable.

With some generals making noises already in 2021 about being ready to face insurrection in 2024 (meaning turning the US military against Americans who disagree), such comments and concepts are only likely to fuel the belief among the masses that the lockdowns, mandates, and other impositions beyond the ordinary realm of Constitutional Authority are merely the opening gambits in a push for a totalitarian takeover, a real coup practiced against We, The People, who are the rightful arbiters of what powers the Federal government, or for that matter, any government lawfully exercises.

Those of our employees who are attempting to usurp that authority are the ones engaging in a coup.

Using cancel culture methodologies to preempt scientific discourse, and then using the narrative thus preserved to justify crimes against humanity and the subjugation of the American People, is no excuse for the violation of the fundamental covenant which gives our government any legitimacy whatsoever.

January sixth events, largely incited by false flag operators from within the government, are being inflated to become the Reichstag Fire equivalent in this power play, and the other elements which parallel those in Europe in the 1930s are in full swing, and giving the eugenicists precedence in medicine only paves the way for the next round of horrors.

This must be stopped or the republic will be lost.
How God must weep at humans' folly! Stand fast! God knows what he is doing!
