Masks Cut Covid Risk in Half, New Study Shows

Quote

Donning a face mask more than halves the risk of getting Covid, according to a review of eight studies published in the British Medical Journal. So does hand-washing. Physical distancing, meantime, cuts the risk by a quarter.

Haha yes, I can see how that might work ... err, not.

A 2020 study from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization, the video declares, "proves face masks do not prevent the spread of a virus."

The video was flagged as part of Facebook’s efforts to combat false news and misinformation on its News Feed. (Read more about our partnership with Facebook.)

One of the study’s authors, University of Hong Kong public health professor Ben Cowling, told PolitiFact that the claim amounts to an "incorrect interpretation" of the study, "confusing absence of evidence with evidence of absence."

Virologist Angela Rasmussen, a research scientist at Columbia University, said of the study cited in the video: "The bottom line is that this paper doesn’t prove that face masks don’t prevent transmission, but that the available data didn’t show a statistically significant effect.

And the kicker:

Quote

Texas A&M University-Texarkana virologist Ben Neuman said the study reflects the understanding of masks in the early phase of the pandemic, but scientific opinion has shifted because of several important papers published since then.

"The kicker is," he added, "just weeks later, a group with the same senior author, plus some coronavirus specialists, produced a paper demonstrating that masks are indeed highly effective in stopping infected people from releasing airborne viruses."

Britain to add booster shots to COVID-19 travel pass

image.png

LONDON (Reuters) - Britain's health ministry on Friday said it would add booster shots to the COVID-19 pass for outbound international travel, though it added they would not be added to the domestic pass at this time.

The health ministry said that travellers who have had a booster or a third dose would be able to demonstrate their vaccine status through the National Health Service (NHS) COVID Pass from Friday, adding that a booster was not necessary to travel into England.

Germany not ruling out lockdown, even for the vaccinated.

image.png

BERLIN (Reuters) - Germany's coronavirus situation is so grave that a lockdown, including people who have been vaccinated, cannot be ruled out, the health minister said on Friday, as Austria said it would go back into full lockdown from Monday.

"We are now in a situation - even if this produces a news alert - where we can't rule anything out," acting health minister Jens Spahn told a news conference.

Markets reeled on the prospect of a possible German lockdown, with bond yields turning negative, and the euro and stock markets falling sharply.

Austria will become the first country in western Europe to reimpose a full lockdown this autumn to tackle a new wave of infections, and will require its whole population to be vaccinated as of February.

Germany reported 52,970 new coronavirus cases and 201 deaths on Friday, bringing total deaths to 98,739.

Chancellor Angela Merkel said on Thursday https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/german-region-hardest-hit-by-covid-surge-plans-partial-lockdown-report-2021-11-18 that, in areas where hospitals are becoming dangerously full of COVID-19 patients, large parts of public life would be restricted to those who have either been vaccinated or have recovered from the illness. [nL1N2SA0KQ]

 

Germany's upper house of parliament is expected to pass the new coronavirus measures on Friday.

Spahn also said the health ministry was in talks with Pfizer (NYSE:PFE) and other companies to order medicines to treat COVID-19.

Analysing Covid vaccine efficiency and safety statistics.

Prof. Norman Fenton

(25 min)

''In this lecture I talk about our ongoing analysis of the latest data published by the Office for Nat Statistics on mortality by vaccine status. The reason this data is incredibly important is because it potentially provides us with the simplest and most objective way to determine the overall risk-benefit of the Covid vaccines, namely the comparison of all-cause mortality between the vaccinated and unvaccinated.''

When govts insist on using a fraudulent PCR test for their covid numbers that has, as in the example in the video 2 posts up, a 84% false positive rate - it's done to install fear. If you want to upshift to terror then it's a simple case of just ramping up the testing numbers.

Reminder that the PCR test used to give Covid case numbers, hospitalisation numbers and deaths numbers has a huge false positive ratio, none of the numbers are real, which is just as govts want. In the 25 min video below Prof. Norman Fenton goes through the data giving a false positive rate of 84%.

Reminder that most current world leaders have been through the Davos Billionaire's Club re-education programmes via the WEF teaching them how to implement the 'Great Reset' and bestow totalitarian control to the Davos billionaires.

As Austria and Germany look to go full **** and force the experimental DNA altering gene therapy on people, has anyone wondered if it might be normal to see a seasonal surge in coronavirus cases about this time of year?

Meanwhile, ignoring the fact that the vaccines are creating the variants, Fauci says the *fully* vaxxed will need boosters - err, so not so fully vaxxed then? And that it's likely they will needed err boostering? every 6 or 12 months.

And by the way, Fauci says it's time to start your babies and toddlers on this merry go round too. 🤔

Meanwhile no lockdowns, no mask mandates, no vaccine mandates Sweden has been 'back to normal' for some time now.

 

 

And data from Tokyo after the govt gave the go ahead for Ivermectin treatment.

AUSTRALIA - The army is now transferring positive Covid cases and contacts in the Northern Territories to ‘Quarantine Camps’ by army truck. So it wasn’t a conspiracy theory then.

 

 

With an 80%+ false positive rate just keep ramping up the test numbers and soon the whole country will be placed in camps - sorted 👍

Dangerous govt misinformation;

1g5.PNG.914ec0ab05604666e74382aa839d3b2c.PNG

 

Covid is spread just as easily by the vaxxed as the unvaxxed. If your mum is in a 'at risk' category then she should get vaxxed, if the vaccines actually worked there would be no need for you to get one as well, if they don't work there would be no need for you to get one as well.

 

 

1g6.PNG.587112d36a64bb6f7bdf13bcecfba28b.PNG

 

A disease is defined by it's symptoms, if you have no symptoms you don't have the disease. As explained in the Prof. Fenton video posted above, symptomless covid stems from false positives given by the PCR test. If you are not producing a viral load you cannot spread the virus.

Unvaccinated healthcare workers are a danger to everyone and must be sacked regardless of having natural immunity (govt). The fake news that natural immunity does not work against covid continues to be spread by govt in spite of dozens of research papers showing the opposite.

European shares tumble on COVID surge, rate hike fears

image.png

(Reuters) - European stocks slumped to three-week lows on Tuesday as a resurgence of COVID-19 cases and rate hike concerns knocked sentiment ahead of flash readings on euro zone business activity.

The pan-European STOXX 600 dropped 1% by 0815 GMT, after Asian markets followed Wall Street lower on Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell's renomination, which buoyed bets on U.S. rate hikes in 2022. [MKTS/GLOB]

Tech stocks plunged 2.5% as prospect of a high-rate environment dented appeal of the high-growth sector.

Travel stocks slipped 0.9% after the United States issued an advisory against movement to Germany and Denmark due to rising COVID-19 cases, while oil stocks slid 0.3% tracking a dip in crude prices on growing expectations that the U.S., Japan and India will release crude reserves to tame prices.[O/R]

 

Overall, growing nerves around a fourth wave of COVID-19 infections stalling European economic recovery at a time when central banks are planning the withdrawal of monetary support pulled investors out of equities.

Germany's Thyssenkrupp (DE:TKAG) slumped 6.9% on news that Swedish activist fund Cevian is placing a 6.9% stake in the firm, Refinitiv news service IFR reported.

Ok, so someone who doesn't even work in a hospital but actually works for a vaccine company and who provides no data says something to the msm. 🤔 yeah, I'll not bother with that.

Andrew Pollard is Professor of Paediatric Infection and Immunity at the University of Oxford. His contributions to the overlapping fields of paediatrics, Vaccinology and public Health resulted in his appointment as the Government’s chief advisor on vaccines, and he became chair of the Department of Health’s Joint Committee on Vaccination in 2013. He is also chair of the European Medicine’s Agency Scientific Advisory Group on vaccines and an advisor to WHO. Professor Pollard’s work has had a profound impact on childhood immunisation in the UK, supporting the introduction of half of the vaccines currently given to children.

'Government data in Wales shows that nearly 85% of COVID inpatients are vaccinated.''

The footnote to the data explains it quite well:

https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/1034383/Vaccine-surveillance-report-week-46.pdf

Quote

In the context of very high vaccine coverage in the population, even with a highly effective vaccine, it is expected that a large proportion of cases, hospitalisations and deaths would occur in vaccinated individuals, simply because a larger proportion of the population are vaccinated than unvaccinated and no vaccine is 100% effective. This is especially true because vaccination has been prioritised in individuals who are more susceptible or more at risk of severe disease. Individuals in risk groups may also be more at risk of hospitalisation or death due to non-COVID-19 causes, and thus may be hospitalised or die with COVID-19 rather than because of COVID-19.

However you want to spin it, the vaccines are lowering the risk of death and/or serious illness, you only need to see how the number of deaths during this wave is far less than the previous waves when we didn't have vaccines.

I am almost at a loss for words at this point, I never imagined that during a pandemic, when we have vaccines freely available, we would be having discussions like this on whether to use them or not!

“Let’s say a study enrolled 20,000 patients into the control group and 20,000 in the vaccine group. In that study, 200 people in the control group got sick and 0 people in the vaccine group got sick. Even though the vaccine efficacy would be a whopping 100%, the ARR would show that vaccines reduce the absolute risk by just 1% (200/20,000= 1%). For the ARR to increase to 20% in our example study with a vaccine with 100% efficacy, 4,000 of the 20,000 people in the control group would have to get sick (4,000/20,000= 20%).”
