The 'Efficacy' of Contact-tracing and Vaccines

Image
     (illustration: saurabh singh) Contact-tracing   Contact-tracing has a very low efficacy rate when it comes to preventing a epidemic because it only traces conscious contacts, or contacts one is aware of.  It does not trace unwitting contacts whom have contact with others through sitting at the same table, using the same escalator, using the same tap, holding the bars on the back of seats in buses, etc.  So unless a virus is transmitted only through prolonged face-to-face interaction, it is pretty much as efficacious as a rabbit's foot in the long-run. Contact-tracing, however, has the benefit of slowing down viral transmission, not eradicating it. That slows down the demands on medical facilities and should be implemented in the narrow window when one first gets wind of the virus, provided this is paired with other measures like physical-distancing, closing of borders, staying home, etc.  If not, Contact-tracing in itself becomes a...

Covid. A Tale of 3 Cities.

Covid. A Tale of 3 Cities.  a general conspiratorial overview. This is a Conspiratorial take on this event.   It may not be a conspiracy.  But since i have no hard proof that it is just a coincidence, it could therefore be true. Curtain up... 1. Fool Manchu CHINA may or may not be the source of the virus, but what it certainly is, is the first source of the manufacturing of global expectation-management and paranoia production for the global premiere of, 'Jab or Else!'.  The musical will be sure to follow. Expectations had to be produced.  And China was the best one for the role.  They had a compliant 'I'll do as I'm told' population, like the chinese in the rest of asia, so the production would go smoothly and people across the globe would be taught about what this is about (the virus), what fears they ought to have (that many will die and there are no remedies for it), and how they should behave when it was their turn (do ...

Singapore's Flawed Covid Approach

Image
Sg made a big mistake pushing for vaccination. Sg had about 900 deaths per year from influenza.  But with cv19, 36 deaths in a year and a half and they push vaccination with a vaccine that was released under an Emergency Use Authorization by the FDA?  Chinese kia xi'ism doesn't bode well for rational and informed decisions.  Perhaps include more other races in the panel for different views eh. When it was found that foreign indian workers had it in the 10s of thousands, that is grounds for plausible assumption that it was similar in the local population.  But no mass tests were done to verify that.   No consideration was given to the possibility that the indians might have gotten it from the chinese or the local population.  If they did, that would imply that it would also have spread quickly amongst the local population as well.  Given the racist history of the state, it was reflexively assumed to be an indian ...

Media Disinformation - the case of Andreas Kalcker

Image
I just came across some old news about a 'fake' cure for cv19.  It's about MMS or Miracle Mineral Solution.  When i first read about it a long while back, i was shocked as the media was saying that this scientist by the name of Andreas Kalcker was asking people to drink bleach to cure one of the Chinavirus19.  That's what lots of the headlines were saying.  BUT, the fact of the matter is, it wasn't 'bleach' per se, as bleach is commonly understood as concentrated household cleaning substance that anyone knows can't be inhaled, let alone ingested.  The media can't use terms knowing it will be taken in the wrong context. Rather, it is a TYPE of bleach that is ALREADY used in drinking water, food applications, and industrial applications as a disinfectant. This fact, was hidden by the Corporate-stream media.  Just saying it is bleach is a gross oversimplification.  You see? Firstly, Kalcker was advocati...

What's so special about Chinavirus19 that we need to.....

Image
According to the following quoted site, all humans can never develop sufficient antibodies to fight the chinavirus19, and need to get vaccinated all their lives, and that if anyone doesn't, they are guilty of spreading it.  First read what they have to say... *** from Factcheck : '' Olivier Schwartz, head of the Virus and Immunity Unit at the Pasteur Institute, told AFP by phone: “It is obvious that people under 50 who are in good health should be vaccinated” because they can still be affected by the disease. Bruno Lina, professor of virology at the University of Lyon, said that the aim of a mass vaccination campaign is to reduce the transmission of a virus. This would not be effective if only people over 50 years old received the vaccine. That is less than half the population, and “under these conditions, we will never slow down the circulation of the virus,” he said. Both Schwartz and Lina said that while the Covid-19 vaccines currently authorized canno...

Is Khumb Mela the real cause of Indian CV death-spike?

Image
BBC online : Facebook:  If the Khumb Mela started it, there should have been a death spike from January onwards as that is when the Khumb mela started. How is the western press ignoring this when they themselves reported it in January? Look at the date of the article below.   You'll see that it is dated 14th January, 2021.   The Guardian:  14th January 2021 Now unless, the incubation period for the chinavirus19 is a couple of months, the current viral death-spike should have been running concurrently from January. So.  What's going on? edX
