In Sweden the pandemic is over
Some states in the USA not so much
Sweden declares the pandemic is over
No more restrictions in Sweden. In the US, our leaders aren't that smart, so it is going to take us a lot longer before we realize the obvious.
Steve Kirsch
No more restrictions in Sweden. Other nations will follow. Last week, Denmark became the first EU country to lift almost all coronavirus restrictions. It was quickly followed by Norway, where Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store said society had to "live with" the virus.
The article says:
Unlike other European countries such as France and Spain which imposed draconian lockdown rules, Sweden’s COVID-19 death rate is comparatively better and the country is exiting the pandemic while other nations are refusing to lift restrictions for at least months more.
It also said:
The Scandinavian country did not enforce strict mask mandates, with senior epidemiologist Anders Tengell asserting that face coverings were in fact “dangerous” because they provided a false sense of security while failing to stop the spread of the virus.
Wow. Isn’t that stunning? A country that actually relies on an epidemiologist who understands science!
Paper from Johns Hopkins shows that Sweden got the response right; lockdowns were never needed and caused huge economic damage
Also of interest is the Hopkins study which you can learn about here. This was a very well done study that showed that Sweden’s approach was correct.
Conclusion is that the US response was totally uncalled for and Sweden got it right. Of course, the mainstream media in the US isn’t going to cover this:
While this meta-analysis concludes that lockdowns have had little to no public health effects, they have imposed enormous economic and social costs where they have been adopted. In consequence, lockdown policies are ill-founded and should be rejected as a pandemic policy instrument.
Retweet this (if you still have a Twitter account):

Lockdowns in Europe and the US decreased COVID-19 mortality by a measly 0.2% on average, while the economic costs of lockdowns were enormous. Lars Jonung,
, and I find ZERO evidence to support lockdowns. Take a look.
Meanwhile in high tech Silicon Valley…
Santa Clara County Health Officer Sara Cody still has us in masks and is mandating that our first responders get boosted or be fired. It’s not science based and is costing jobs and destroying lives for no benefit. Dr. Cody couldn’t care less.
Is Trudeau Still In Control Of Canada? Clif High Said He Is "100 % Crapped Out"
As Covid Restrictions and Tyrannies Dislodge And Collapse All Over The World
Celia Farber
A few days ago, I listened to this—the latest Clif High, with rapt attention. He says in this video that Trudeau has effectively deserted his post, and is a lame duck—no longer in charge. Very interesting.
I like his phrase “100% crapped out.”
Here’s a stunning video of Trudeau being heckled in Parliament:
…The pattern, which began with Boris Johnson in the UK, weeks ago, suddenly dropping all Covid restrictions, is now being seen all over the world. It almost feels like it’s the new “PC—” to drop Covid restrictions, because “the science has changed.”
Are the Covid Stasi afraid, finally?
Afraid of thousands of 18 wheelers and tractors heading for their capital cities?
One never understands why these things happen, so it’s hard to access feelings. I actually wonder at times if I still have any under this wetsuit of shock.
I am certain this is the most evil, destructive thing that has ever happened in the entire history of people.
The convoy in Ottawa became the first genuine PUNCHBACK we’ve seen. It’s like the final showdown of Humans vs Post-Humans.
Justin Trudeau won’t even speak with a representative of the convoy, and it’s going on two weeks now. We always knew it was contempt for the working and middle classes, but this is really disastrous. All he is programmed to do is read woke accusations from a teleprompter, while is country is in open revolution, because of him.
Instead, apparently, the cabal’s solution will be to snatch the children, whose breathingis suddenly of paramount importance to the Canadian government. Same people who have been gagging Canadian children for two years.
Speaking of which, it was announced today that mask and vaccination mandates for businesses will be dropped tomorrow in New York, because Covid “cases” are declining and so much for all that.
…It’s beginning to dawn on me that we will never recover from this, even if they all drop dead today. The damage is incalculable, and permanent.
Listen to this father describe, in tears, how the mask mandates have affected his daughter:
It seems Covid-fanaticism is no longer a viable political platform, as we can see in Canada. Trudeau’s own party has turned on him.
Meanwhile:
Sweden declares “Covid” to be over. (Not just restrictions—Covid itself.) Can something that is “over” come back from the grave like a Zombie?
NO. Let’s bring back this great word:
Over.
I may move back to Sweden, hoist a Swedish flag over my house, and start an Anders Tegnell appreciation society, letting Swedes know what fate exactly, that man saved their children from.
The Babylon Bee’s wonderful take here.
And an excellent tweet:
Freedom Is Contagious
“Canadian Truckers Inspire Anti-vaccine Mandate Protests in France:”
In France it’s called Le Convoi De La Liberté.
Department Of Homeland Security Seeks To Thwart American Freedom Convoy
"Aiming to get ahead of a planned demonstration in America..."
Celia Farber
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is aiming to get ahead of a planned demonstration in America, "tracking reports of a potential convoy" amid several Canadian truck protests against COVID mandates.
The agency "is tracking reports of a potential convoy that may be planning to travel to several U.S. cities," a DHS spokesperson said in a statement to Fox News Wednesday.

What the Truckers Want
I’ve spoken to 100 of the protestors gathered in the Canadian capital. What's happening is far bigger than the vaccine mandates.
Rupa Subramanya
For two weeks, the 18-wheelers, the semis, the tractors and the pick-up trucks streamed through the snow and ice into the center of Ottawa, the Canadian capital.
They came from across the country. Vaxxed, unvaxxed, white, black, Chinese, Sikh, Indian, alone or with their wives and kids. They huddled around campfires. They set up pop-up kitchens and tents with block captains doling out coffee and blankets. They honked (and honked and honked). They blasted “We Are the World.” And everywhere you looked, someone was waving the Maple Leaf.
It dipped to 4 degrees. The mayor declared a state of emergency. And they didn’t budge.
The truckers were scared of running out of gas—freezing to death in their little truck beds in the middle of the night. The city threatened to arrest anyone who brought it to them. In response, hundreds of Ottawans did just that. The truckers stayed put.
They are a city inside a city whose inhabitants—there are an estimated 8,000 to 10,000—were outraged with a country that seemed to have forgotten they existed. This past Sunday, as if to confirm that suspicion, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who has yet to meet with Freedom Convoy leaders, took a personal day. On Monday, during an emergency debate at the House of Commons, he called them “a few people shouting and waving swastikas.”
I live in downtown Ottawa, within view of Parliament Hill, and have spent the past 10 days or so bundled up and walking around the protests. I have spoken to close to 100 protesters, truckers and other folks, and not one of them sounded like an insurrectionist, white supremacist, racist or misogynist.
They sound like Ivan, 46, who emigrated, with his wife, Tatiana, from Ukraine to build a new life in New Brunswick, in eastern Canada. "We came to Canada to be free—not slaves,” he said. “We lived under communism, and, in Canada, we’re now fighting for our freedom.” (Like so many truckers, Ivan refused to share his last name.)
B.J. Dichter, a spokesman for the Freedom Convoy, is vaccinated, and he estimates that many—maybe most—of the truckers at the protest are, too. “I’m Jewish. I have family in mass graves in Europe. And apparently I’m a white supremacist,” he told me on Wednesday.
…You couldn’t trust the press or politicians, he said, recalling that in the fall of 2020, then vice-presidential candidate Kamala Harris expressed skepticism of any vaccine approved under President Donald Trump. Now, they were being ordered to get this vaccine developed . . . under President Donald Trump.
“If you’re not vaccinated,” Peter said, “they treat you like garbage lying on the streets.”
…There were copycat protests popping up in Helsinki, Finland, and Wellington, New Zealand and Nice, France (they planned to hit Paris and Brussels). There were truckers organizing in the Netherlands, Australia and the United States. Among the Americans who had driven up to Ottawa there was talk that soon the big rigs would descend on Washington, D.C.

Who is the Terrorist?
No, really.
Tessa Lena
You have probably seen the terrorism advisory that the DHS issued on February 7:
SUMMARY OF THE TERRORISM THREAT TO THE UNITED STATES:
The United States remains in a heightened threat environment fueled by several factors, including an online environment filled with false or misleading narratives and conspiracy theories, and other forms of mis- dis- and mal-information (MDM) introduced and/or amplified by foreign and domestic threat actors...
Dr. Paul Alexander
We are now terrorist threats. So basically I and some of you, and McCullough, Malone, Risch etc., we are now a threat, this homeland security document essentially says we are because we are dissenters and contrarians and skeptics. We cannot question the vaccines or COVID-19 failures, we cannot. That is what the US government is now moving to criminalize. But I will not stop, never will I stop sharing my views on how devastating the lockdowns, school closures, mask mandates, how catastrophic the vaccine is and a failure, never!
…And, granted, interpreting bureaucratic language is an art of its own—as they like to sound dramatic to increase their funding and general glory—but in the current environment, this sounds like a formal attack on free speech, and it is entirely unAmerican, if we are to take the “American values of democracy and free expression" at face value. (And yes, it’s healthy to snap out of the 2022 “standards” and remember 2019 and the original Normal, imperfect as it was.)
It is now an act of terrorism to scrutinize or criticize government policies or pharmaceutical products made by a private company?
Is it an act of terrorism to expose or decry the corruption of regulatory agencies?
Where, in the proverbial North Korea, or here in America?
Oh my.
A Russian Brezhnev era joke comes to mind:
A Russian asks an American: “So when you say Americans are free, what do you mean?” “Well, in America, you are free to walk up to the White House and say, “Reagan sucks!” “So what,” says the Russian. “We here can walk up to the Kremlin and say, ‘Reagan sucks!’”
So in that spirit, let me ask, who is the terrorist here?
Here is a list of a few potential candidates, please make your pick.
- People who don’t quite trust the pharmaceutical industry
- Activists advocating for protecting the American citizens from corporate fraud or government overreach
- Legal and medical experts who believe that the official data is cooked and demand an investigation
- Lawyers suing government agencies over COVID injection mandates
- Citizens who believe that the U.S. Constitution is legally binding
- Medical doctors who have successfully treated thousands of COVID patients and who are now trying to share their experience
- Medical doctors who have seen a lot of adverse reactions to COVID injections in their patients, and who feel morally obligated to speak up
- Journalists who do actual journalism
OR
Individuals who have sponsored, supported, promoted, and then covered up the gain-of-function research that likely resulted in the artifact of synthetic biology that we got to know as “SARS-CoV-2” (including the individuals identifying as “the science”)
- Teams of people in different influential positions who have developed and pushed through a campaign of terrorizing American citizens with 24/7 wall-to-wall advertisements of paralyzing fear, and who have been shaming people for things like coming close to their parents or hugging their kids
- People in positions of power who have made sure that COVID patients are not treated with anything until they can barely breathe—and then get “treated” strictly with things that don’t work
- Medical boards revoking the licenses of doctors who have deviated from using strictly the things that don’t work to treat their COVID patients
- Certain governors who have obliged nursing homes to take active COVID patients
- Hospital staff who let COVID patients rot in isolation—often unattended and sometimes unfed—and who did not allow family members to come in and check on their loved ones
Hospitals staff who sadistically refused to dispense medications that the patients and their families desperately begged for, even though said medications had been prescribed by their primary physicians
- People at Pfizer who have seemingly cooked their trial and clinical data
People in official positions who “la la la” everyone over thousands and thousands of reported adverse reactions and deaths in very close temporal proximity to COVID injections, even though it is their direct professional duty to investigate every such case to make sure that the product doesn’t need to be recalled
- People who mandated masks on toddlers’ faces even though toddlers are known to be at a low risk from COVID and at a high risk of decreased cognitive and emotional development due to masks
- People who printed so much money (for the enrichment of the already super rich) that if this entire thing doesn’t collapse, it’ll be a miracle of nature
I don’t know about you but to me it seems like the people at the top of the list aren’t terrorists.
I’d like to end this story with a reference to an article that I wrote earlier about the anatomy of deceit and “pandemic terrorism.” Because it’s not the dissidents who have been terrorizing us, it’s been… the other ones.
Anatomy of Deceit
...and pandemic terrorism.
This story is about the anatomy of deceit, which is a genre of communication used both by private citizens and famous politicians. It is about addicting people to delusions, black hat marketing, pandemic terrorism, climate fear mongering, and S&M. More importantly, it is about the massive learning value of losing your bearings and then coming back to life. Most importantly, it is about regaining your grounding after being deceived and abused and perhaps temporarily tempted away from your soul. Now you know. And you are now so strong.
Yay, California is not on the list…

Illinois Court Halts Mask and Vaccine/Testing Rules for Schools Across the State!
On Friday February 4, the Circuit Court in Sangamon County Illinois issued a state-wide Temporary Restraining Order, halting mask and vaccine-or-testing mandates for students and staff which had been implemented by 170 school districts. Judge Raylene DeWitte Grischow noted that since the governor declared a COVID-19 emergency in March 2020, there have been “25 serial disaster proclamations” and 99 executive orders related to COVID-19, touching the lives of every citizen in Illinois.
The folks that filed the lawsuit include parents of kids across the state, as well as teachers. They are challenging the executive orders from Governor JB Pritzkers and the emergency rules that were set forth by Department of Public Health (DPH) and the state Board of Education implementing the orders.
The orders being challenged: 1.) directed school districts to require the use of masks, 2.) required unvaccinated school employees to show a weekly negative COVID-19 test, and 3). ordered the districts to exclude students and teachers for a set time if they were close contacts of a probable COVID-19 case and refuse to test.
Exclusion from School is a “Quarantine” Without Due Process
In reviewing these mandates, Judge Grischow focused on the right of due process, and said that during the Ebola scare in 2014, the Department of Public Health added a new definition of, “quarantine, modified” and “quarantine, isolated.” At that time, the DPH believed that exclusion from school was a type of “quarantine” and therefore subject to due process (notice and an opportunity to be heard) under Illinois law. This means that folks have a right to object to and be afforded due process.
