This is Why we Don't Believe Experts or the Media 2

The lies, mistakes and total nonsense just keep on coming from the experts and the media. Here's a roundup of what I've seen today without even searching for it.


CDC Director Denies Myocarditis in 5-11 Year Olds who Took COVID Vaccines

CDC Director Rochelle Walensky told ABC News on December 10, "We haven't seen anything yet [in 5-11 year olds]. We have an incredibly robust vaccine safety system, and so if [problems] were there, we would find it." 

Yet in a CDC report, a slide dated the same day noted 14 reports of myocarditis in that age group, eight of which were followed up on and "met CDC working case definition for myocarditis." (By the way, I wasn't able to find this report even with a highly tailored Google search. Qwant.com turned it up.) Follow-up is in progress for other five reports, and one is under review.

Fauci Plotted Smear Campaign

America's most notorious flip-flopper and dog torturer wrote emails last year looking to take down the premises of the Great Barrington Declaration, which recommended focused protection of the vulnerable and resuming normal life for the young and healthy. The "fringe epidemiologists" Fauci referred to were Dr. Martin Kulldorff, professor of medicine at Harvard University; Dr. Sunetra Gupta, professor at Oxford University; and Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, professor at Stanford University Medical School. A year on, their recommendations make more sense than what we've ended up with: college students turned into Bubble Boys while nursing homes may collapse if the Supreme Court allows the Medicare/Medicaid vaccine mandates. The rest of us, for the most part, have gotten on with our lives. 


The CDC Can't Count

From RT.com,

While the CDC’s data suggests some 240 million Americans have received at least one shot, the statistics claim just 203 million are fully vaccinated, a statistic which would suggest 37 million Americans started - but did not finish - their course of injections.

“We don’t have any faith in the numbers on the CDC website, and we never refer to them,” Philadelphia Department of Public Health spokesman James Garrow told Bloomberg. The state of Pennsylvania lowered its estimate for adults who’d received one shot from 98.9% to 94.6% last month, and plans to submit another round of revised figures by the end of the year.

And here I thought the worst problems were that there was no study by the CDC on natural immunity or ivermectin, the shot pushers still don't understand why so many people don't want an experimental injection, and only one governor out of fifty could set up monoclonal antibody treatment centers and get the word out about them. No--they can't fucking count. 

Masks for Two-Year-Olds

The latest Biden mandate is masks for pre-schoolers in federal Head-start programs, along with vaccine mandates for staff. This, for a disease of the old and sick. For cut-up t-shirts that don't stop aerosol particles. For children, who are extremely unlikely to get a bad case of COVID.

Indiana, along with 23 other states, has filed suit against the order. Indiana's Attorney General writes, "As stated in the lawsuit, even the World Health Organization has concluded that 'based on the safety and overall interest of the child and the capacity to appropriately use a mask,' 'children aged 5 years and under should not be required to wear masks.'” I'm glad somebody in public health can get something right.

Bright Spots

I'm getting the sense more and more that people are done with the hysteria. A vaccine mandate hearing at the Indiana legislature turned chaotic, with hardly anyone for mandates. More and more covidians are getting wrecked and ratioed in comments on Twitter and elsewhere; more and more people are out and about; more and more people are planning normal holidays. More than anything else, I am done and beyond frustrated with the complete and utter nonsense that has passed for "science" over the past two years.

Dana Carpender's Podcast; Dr. Davis on YouTube; Labor Day Sales

Dana Carpender, who's written several recipe books and other works on low-carb, has a podcast and is still writing articles at carbsmart.com. She's a terrific writer and amateur researcher (otherwise known as reading , as Jimmy Dore jokes ). I use her book 500 Low-Carb Recipes all the time and I'm looking forward to hearing more from her. I've embedded her podcast on my blog (click on the three lines at the top right if you don't see it, or go to Spotify or other podcast source if you're getting this by email).

Fermented bread and butter pickle recipe ft. L. Plantarum

After Dr. Davis said the other night that  L. plantarum  may reduce some of the effects of the herbicide glyphosate (which is everywhere), I'm re-running my recipe for fermented bread and butter pickles. Pickling cucumbers naturally have  L. plantarum  bacteria on them, and fermenting them with some brown sugar multiplies these bacteria. (Just don't use chlorinated water to wash them.) And if you're growing your own cucumbers, avoid spraying the fruits with  Bacillus thuringiensis , or Bt (leaves and vines are OK). It's unclear what effect a big dose of Bt would have on humans. Another benefit of DIY pickles: no emulsifiers like polysorbate 80, which is a common ingredient in pickles. If you have GI problems, it could be from emulsifiers. These sweet-and-sour pickles are the tastiest I've ever made. There's just a little added sugar (some of which the bacteria will consume) and turmeric that gives the pickles their bright color.  Special equipment Quar...

Collagen-filled Low Carb Burritos

Low-carb, grain-free Mexican food is hard to find, but it's easy to make your own at home. This recipe has an authentic ingredient: carne de lengua, or beef tongue. Don't be put off: beef tongue is tender, delicious, and full of collagen. Look for it directly from farmers in your area. To cook it, cut it in 1" to 1-1/2" slices and pressure cook for one hour. Enjoy the delicious broth as a bonus. Ingredients 1 slice cooked beef tongue, peeled and cut into small cubes 1 egg wrap (I use these  from Egglife) 1/4 cup cooked black or pinto beans Chili pepper Oregano Garlic (powdered or minced) Cumin Guacamole (with no emulsifiers) Salsa Shredded cheddar cheese Sour cream or homemade cream cheese  with no emulsifiers  Put the egg wrap on a plate and put the beef and beans down the middle of it. Sprinkle with the herbs and spices. Wrap, turn over and microwave for 1-2 minutes. Spoon salsa over the burrito and sprinkle with cheese. Add guacamole and sour cream or homemade crea...

Cardio: A Waste of Valuable Dance Time

"I'd rather hold a girl in my arms than a football." -Joe DeCicco, friend and dancing fanatic Have you heard that it takes a woman 77 hours of exercise to lose a kilogram of fat? (For us Americans, that's half a pound.) That's according to a study cited by Dr. John Briffa .(1) The women who huffed and puffed three hours a week for a year ended up 4.4 pounds lighter than the sedentary women. That doesn't surprise me: my own weight loss involved a lot less exercise than what I'd been doing. I did no cardio workouts, just strength training . I had more time and energy for dancing, which is a stress reliever, helps keep me in shape, and it's a ton of fun. It's not expensive to dance (as long as you stay away from the studios). I've found excellent lessons at clubs where the teachers really care about the students getting it. Here in Denver, there are dancing clubs that are run by nonprofit organizations, where the prices are reasonable and...
