An interesting study from Johns Hopkins University [DATA HERE] shows the 2021 government lockdown did virtually nothing to stem death from the pandemic, but likely created more adverse “social ills” and long-term negative health outcomes.
WASHINGTON – […] The lockdowns during the early phase of the pandemic in 2020 reduced COVID-19 mortality by about 0.2%, said the broad review of multiple scientific studies.
“We find no evidence that lockdowns, school closures, border closures, and limiting gatherings have had a noticeable effect on COVID-19 mortality,” the researchers wrote. But the research paper said lockdowns did have “devastating effects” on the economy and contributed to numerous social ills.
“They have contributed to reducing economic activity, raising unemployment, reducing schooling, causing political unrest, contributing to domestic violence, and undermining liberal democracy,” the report said.
“Such a standard benefit-cost calculation leads to a strong conclusion: lockdowns should be rejected out of hand as a pandemic policy instrument,” the paper concluded. (read more)
I’ll be dammed! We need people with PhD’s who never earned a singly dollar outside the system to tell us that.
they have to make a bad decision first, then let it run 2 years, before they can look at the data and say they were wrong.
versus.
making right decisions.
Not sure they’re ever going to admit they were wrong.
And I fear there’s going to be an emerging unproductive portion of society that’s going to need care……..meaning the ‘vaccinated.’
This is the biggest question.
Are we living in a world where they must ‘admit it’ before punished, or are we in a world where ‘crimes get punished period’.
They already do. And it’s going to get much worse.
there are doctors coming forward that just quit told there story and moved onto a more holistic approach. This is good and should have happened years ago. Actually it did and many were taken out ! The “western medical practice’s are the only ones that take insurance. I know this to be true for myself my tests, and the choices I make for my family are not the “western way” and insurance covers nothing! yet these morons that call daily trying to sell you medicare supplemental insurance along with what is taken out monthly to pay for crap you don’t even use. This has to be the individuals choice not …”you will do what I say” rule!
I keep thinking…. either the WHO, CDC, FDA, Federal Gov, State Gov, and my employer are completely wrong about Kovid or I am.
Damn! I like my odds!!
Congratulations! You won the lottery!
Boy, you sure don’t like a fair fight, Baby El! LOL
imagine being informed, the day before your grid goes out. hope you all are ready.
The consequences of the lockdowns was 100% intentional. Bankrupt small businesses while making the mega rich richer. Get the masses used to doing what they are told. Deny children their education. Force people to take dangerous gene modifying drugs that can be modified to kill people in the future if the current shots don’t kill them. It was all planned.
Yes…thank the Chamber of Commerce who was in on it as well…eliminate small business making the likes of Wal Mart etc richer.
Also add… eliminate Religion by in effect closing Churches for worship. Frankly, I’ve been disappointed in Churches for not fighting back and taking it.
You also forgot…Yes…it was all planned…to take down our Lion…
Communist tactics…all of it…
Not sure what John Hopkins angle is with this admission but they were the host for Event 201 the purpose of which was gaming out of a pandemic 2 months before we had a pandemic, complete with media narratives, government narratives, etc. So this is particularly rich coming from them.
In all honesty…. Those measures could have worked if they were just ‘fully funded’ /s
Duh! I was saying that from the beginning. FJB
Holy Shit! ……They’re starting to figure it out.
Time to cover our asses.
We will now see many “covering their asses” collectively before eventually protecting their necks. These people scoffed at cures that could have saved many lives. Families of the deceased will never forget.
Remember what Trump said at the beginning, “The cure cannot be worse than the disease”.
Trump was right again, he’s always right.
Agreed. Dead wrong about the ‘vaccines’ though even though I know he was trying to do every single thing he could to help the people, while facing total irrational scrutiny and opposition the whole time.
And, staying in Office long enough to win re-election.
I believe President Trump was right about vaccines. Unfortunately, he was advised by people that were not pushing the development of true vaccines. The word “vaccine” was prostituted for a quick sale to the masses. The word “booster” is another false description of an additional injection. Amazing how people believe these words.
Booster went from every 5-10 years for tetanus to every 3 months for Covid vaxx. SMH
Who even needs foreign enemies with a government like ours?
you got to wonder if foreign enemies even exist! or if our congress isnt just making up stuff to launder more money!
example – North Korea leader, I’m sure is telling his citizen they are in a war and they must sacrafice as he protects them.
Perhaps we may also learn that many diseases have been created to launder money as well.
Johns Hopkins apparently missed the point of the lockdowns.
John doesn’t even know how to spell his own name!
No surprise there.
What will the studies say in another 2 years of this nonsense. They aren’t giving this up voluntarily or because there will be a miraculous enlightenment.
Neither did the so called vaccines
seriously, look at these massive increases in just 2021.
Below is the article from the Blaze that shows the percent increases in specific illnesses in just 10 months of 2021 vs the prior 5 year average for just our military.
These are documented in the military’s DMED database.
So the obvious question is………..
What was different in 2021 that wasn’t present during those prior 5 years?
Our military has 1.3 million people in it so if these increase are happening in the military odds would suggest similar increases are most likely happening across the globe.
So now do the math on say 3.5 BILLION people!
This is why the world should strongly consider conducting an independent scientific analysis, by honest doctors and scientists of the jab to specifically answer this question………
What are the spike proteins doing in the body? Are they in anyway possibly causing harm to the body’s natural immune system and or organs?
If they lie about lockdowns, lie about the jab’s effectiveness, lie about masks – What else could they be lying about?
https://www.theblaze.com/op-ed/horowitz-whistleblowers-share-dod-medical-data-that-blows-vaccine-safety-debate-wide-open
…but Johns Hopkins didn’t consider the lockdown benefit of getting rid of President Trump!
Which was the true purpose of the lockdowns…
Falls in catagory of…. Other people making bad decisions that affect my life.
Twitter will tag it as misinformation.
Hahaha So the nerds at Hopkins actually thought those lockdowns were intended to address the virus?
Most international agencies that report daily ‘cases’, hospitalizations, and ‘covid deaths’ still quote the Hopkins outfit as their source today…….all around the world.
I guess their fascistic approach is getting so much resistance they have to come up with some truth but will never apologize nor will pay compensations to those they harmed so badly!
““Lockdowns have limited peoples’ access to safe (outdoor) places such as beaches, parks, and zoos, or included outdoor mask mandates or strict outdoor gathering restrictions, pushing people to meet at less safe (indoor) places,” they wrote. “Indeed, we do find some evidence that limiting gatherings was counterproductive and increased COVID-19 mortality.””
well NO SHIT ….it’s not like we were dealing with a highly contagious respiratory virus…
fools.
anyone studying SARS, even GLANCING at it, would have reached the conclusion:
the LAST THING YOU WANT TO DO IS TELL PEOPLE TO GO HOME AND DONT COME OUT.
jackasses
Well, hells bells! Who would of thunk? And these people get paid to provide us with common sense. Or as Sundance says, liberals run around and pretend not to know sh*t. Houston we have problem.
Dimm/commies ENTIRE existence has the purpose to CAUSE problems they then offer to correct….as an aside their “corrections” only make the problem THEY created worse
Go watch Megamind. The cartoon teaches kids that heroes are those who cause misery, then stop causing misery then receive adoration.
Let’s add what masks do to the discussion…
https://stevekirsch.substack.com/p/bidens-ridiculous-free-n95-mask-offer
next up.
mRNA vaccines have made zero difference in cases, severity and deaths.
oh wait, they can’t really do that ,.,.no one can
the moment they decided to “vax” in the MIDDLE OF A PANDEMIC< 13 months LATE INTO IT,,,with a spiked control that is meaningless (you can’t tell if the person recovered from the vax or from immunity from infection, nor can you determine safety)..
those were the moments when science got raped. repeatedly.
who am I kidding…these morons will never admit the mRNA does not work, caused serious harm, long and short and killed lots of people.
they will also never admit insisting that mRNA is the only way was the most foolish decision ever made. AND refusing to allow therapeutics drugs to SAVE LIVES…
anyone still confused about the goals here: this was not about cccp19 virus and health care.
THIS WAS ABOUT KILLING YOU…And boy, they killed lots of people.
stage 3 advances. BREAK NECK SPEED
It’s coming..the reckoning.
Don’t be late for the showDOWN!
God Bless America

not 3veeything, or cam be archived…low views, irrelevant or trivial content is not archived.
BUT this IS bill gates… Microsoft.
typically very famous vvip ( very VERY important people) and what they say and do are usually archived.
what seems to be the case here is sanitizing the web going way back to scrub issues and positions and facts that would raise questions.
exhibit:. Wuhan lab published over 30 unique scientific studies AND findings about ratg13 strain of nature horseshoe bat corona AND where working on gain of function with sars-cov-1 (2003).
that got black holes just about 6 days after the ccp19 virus was noticed
ONLY those that were aware BEFORE the take down were aware and downloaded and saved some of these studies and reports. there is only one report that still exist in official archive and there are 3 that exist in Google science archives (can’t remember the Google product name at the moment but it’s focused exclusively to science data and reports that are shared and can be researched)
one has to wonder:. why keep any of it around and only a few that WERE ALLOWED to be viewed after pandemic.
my suspicions is those allowed to be seen are just for disinformation.
God Bless America
IS that really a surprise?….fallible man tries to improve on God’s perfect creation…..the DNA of humans has built in corrections and feedback that these “esteemed” researchers could only dream about….then again this virus’ INTENT was to change the social, political and economic landscape worldwide
IT HAS changed the social, political, economic landscape worldwide..
true
it is ALSO TRUE the reaction to THE TRUTH will eclipse ANYTHING these monsters have attempted.
revolution stage 3 is right on the cusp of making it to stage 4.
BIG THINGS ARE ABOUT TO HAPPEN.
God Bless America, and may HE hold us all in special care as we relate the TRUTH and condemn those who have manufactured this bioweapon in an attempt to LORD OVER US.
We understand. WE KNOW.
the WORLD WILL KNOW..THEY ARE ALREADY AWAKENING TO THIS TRUTH.
LO (and) BEHOLD.
words have meaning. transcends the human consciousness.
We are witnessing a miracle. Some will understand the significance of this miracle. Other will simply refuse to be wise.
BEHOLD.
I appreciate your posts
Agree.
Especially because they show no fear of hope.
that sums things up directly. well said.
The study will likely find little circulation across the internet, fact checkers will label it misindoctrination.
So email to all your friends and acquaintances!! I did!!
A whole lot of people now go straight for anything so labelled, because they know that’s where they will find the truth…
Here in Australia all the TV stations ( and probably the radio stations judging by the crap they broadcast) are owned by the American left wing MSM = I’m not waiting with any hope or confidence that we will hear anything.
So thanks SD without you we would not know anything about this..
Yeah it’s the same people.
Interesting study indeed considering someone was allowed to tell the truth. How/Why would they do that?
Very interesting.

I saw Finland has hopped on the train as well…all those Nordic countries the Dimm/commies love to brag on are coming to their senses
Sweden never really lost their senses – well, up to the moment they bought into the jabs.
But they never locked down. I give them credit for that!
A great many citizens could have told that to these hackademic whizzbangs two years ago.
Let’s not forget those scumbag media types who proclaimed the John Hopkins prognostication as gospel…
this is obvious russian misinformation….and they probably stole food from the homeless too.
meh…I’m sticking with the joe malarkey and TRUDY show.

What keeps the 53% shown just below from growing by the 590% HIV virus infections for years to come since HIV can be spread by contact within families?
ONS data shows Covid-19 Vaccinated Teens are 3 times more likely to die than Unvaccinated Teens; is this why male Teen Deaths increased by 53% in 2021?

Military Database Shows Alarming Increase in Adverse Medical Conditions After Forced COVID Vaccination
January 30, 2022 | Sundance
During testimony last week, attorney Thomas Renz gave testimony {Direct Rumble Link} on behalf of whistleblowers inside the military medical system who have access to vaccination data that is withheld from the general public.
https://rumble.com/vtiqyu-leaked-database-shows-u.s.-military-disease-skyrocketing-after-covid-19-ino.html
The data on adverse medical conditions that surface after vaccination within the military is contained on a system called the Defense Medical Epidemiology Database (DMED). The documents that were released to Thomas Renz are now being reviewed {Direct Rumble Link}. The resulting information is very disturbing. WATCH:
The research took five-year averages of medical conditions and then compared the track record to the results after the mandatory military vaccination program was initiated. The results are alarming:
Heart Attacks +269%
Pericarditis +175%
Myocarditis +285%
Pulmonary Embolisms +467%
Cerebral Infarction +393%
Bell’s Palsy +319%
Guillain-Barre +250%
Immunodeficiencies +275%
Menstrual Irregularity +476%
Multiple Sclerosis +487%
Miscarriage +306%
HIV +590% <———————-
Chest Pain +1,529%
Labored Breathing +905%
So what the h311 is Joe Rogan apologizing for again?
This is interesting, you can apparently get HIV virus from the booster and HIV in turn can give you AIDS, which can develop into Autoimmune Disease. You remember the 590% uptick in HIV?
A separate 2017 study found that people with HIV/AIDS had an increased risk of developing some autoimmune diseases, specifically:10
Sjögren syndrome
Psoriasis
SLE
Autoimmune hemolytic anemia
Uveitis

LOL, This was never about the virus. It was an experiment on societal control. Who would obey & who would resist. The more important part was how the information was presented and distributed. The media and Big Tech overplayed their respective hands, and people understood it was all BS.
this was not an experiment. It was not some beta test.
this was live production.
and it continues, and unless the revolution happens soon, there are going to kill even more people
reality
If the walking dead wake up soon enough they can get their licks in before they expire.
One would think they’d be eager to do so
Many of us knew that these lock downs were one of the first steps in taking away individual American’s freedoms. What is surprising are the millions of Americans who bought into this asinine nonsense, locking down, while lining up for experimental drugs in the form of dangerous vaccines. They were told this was the answer to a virus which was no worse than the seasonal flu and not fatal to 98+% of the population. Constant Covid porn in the media and elsewhere, selling fear and hysteria non stop, drove the entire panic. After two years it still does! We now have 180 million people injected with a vaccine that has proven totally ineffective, dangerous and no one knows the long term effects, no one. It’s reminiscent of the Rev. Jim Jones in 1978 in the jungles of Guyana. People were lining up to Drink Fauci’s KoolAid. Who says a population can’t be controlled through mass psychosis? And this population is tauted as the most highly educted in the history of man. Go figure. Yet history just keeps repeating itself. Sadly, it’s very probably going to have to get worse before it gets better.
There are millions and millions of us who instinctively understood that the cure was worse than the disease over a year ago and are amazed that so many people needed a formal study to figure it out.
President Trump was one of the first to say the cure (lockdowns) was worse than the disease. Will this study change the behavior of blue state govs and mayors? Not.
Someone should tell the rest of the world.
It’s a Great Reset alright.
For 100 years they’ve been plotting, deceiving, indoctrinating, planting Manchurian candidates in political power centers around the world, all to end with a tyrannical fascist control of the means of production and the accompanying wealth it brings to the few.
In 5 short years, with Trump the tip of the sprear and Biden the demented potentate, they’ve managed to totally expose them and their plot and awaken the rage of millions, if not billions, of people around the planet.
My advice to the great Resetters is to start gathering a few necessities immediately.
THAT is the spirit! I’m pumped.
Florida, total death rate #18 highest in country. Average. South Dakota, #20. Texas #28. All the bogeyman states who did everything wrong all the time no matter what. Gov’t action can delay problems, but the Reaper is always waiting for you at the end.
JMHO, when you throw out numbers like that you ought to make it your business to cite the source and timeline, years.
Otherwise it comes off as agenda or narrative driven gibberish.
Don’t forget it was the John’s Hopkins along with the Gates foundation that gave us these suggested courses of action at Event 201
https://www.centerforhealthsecurity.org/event201/
All of the hospitals, John Hopkins, Mayo, Standford, Kaiser, Dignity health etc killed people. Any administrator, board member, investor, doctor, nurse,pharmacist that participated in any of this needs to be brought to justice! Many people died and many people are left with no help due to the archaic protocols. This stops here and now! Insurance companies are as well to blame they take your money, raise your rates and then send you to die. Also Medicare is a complete rip off as it does not and never has covered anything alternative it has become an addiction machine period! The entire Western Health care system is the worst !
Hospitals were the killing fields
We’ve been telling them that since this stupidity began! They intended this to happen; they intended the deaths, the pain and suffering, the economic and financial destruction! They are evil and are not human beings at all.
Do you honestly believe the medical profession that can perform heart, kidney and other vital organ transplants have one solution for the bio-warfare weapon? Honestly? The best they can do is wear masks and social distance?
Just spitballing here, but if the tow-truck drivers are calling off with ‘Covid’ and the truckers remove one little key piece of hardware that allows their truck to start and run, the RCMP are going to be at it a l-o-o-o-n-g time trying to clear the blockade with just horses.
Those trucks aren’t moving until the truckers move them.
Tow truck drivers are AWOL with COVID because Justine is AWOL with COVID. The RCMP allowed the farmers to run their blockade without lifting a finger, so personally, I’m thinking the Truckers have a lot more support than the official cowards hiding in quarantine would like to believe.
Anecdotal but I saw a video report that police were bringing hot food to truckers
That’s good news, Waiting Patiently and fragemall.
Then it looks like Sparkle Socks is going to have to clear out the trucks himself if he wants them moved. I think Mr. Dressup has a trucker outfit in his costume closet. 😉
There was NEVER any question as to the insanity of this pre planned destruction.
Stolen elections have consequences……..
Meanwhile in New Mexico – Ben Ray Lujan, Senator, suffers a vaccine injury in the form of a stroke. Of course, I don’t know completely for sure, but his twitter account has pro vaccination propaganda all over it, so, I’m thinking chances are good.
As long as Fauci is walking around a free man you can be assured the coup plotters are in firm control of the levers of government of the United States of America.
After all, Fauci knew at the outset of the CCP deployment, leak, whatever circa 4Q 2019 that through his agencies previous actions the USA was funding the biofuckery that perfected gain-of-function and the migration of a highly deadly virus or whatever from animals to humans.
That is a stone cold fact.
Google EcoHealth here to find the grants.
https://www.usaspending.gov/keyword_search/ecohealth
Furthermore, there is that widely disseminated email between Kristian G. Andersen and Fauci, dated two years ago to the day from today where Andersen tells Fauci “one has to look really closely at all the sequences to see that some of the features (potentially) look engineered.
Around the same time, on camera Fauci was Pooh poohing the theory the pandemic originated in a Lab. Yet, he knew he was actively involved in funding such biofuckery.
How is it possible Fauci isn’t in Jail charged with crimes against humanity in backdooring the continuation of gain-of-function from a North Carolina lab where it was discontinued due the the risk to humanity and sent to — China — to be perfected?!!
The how is rouge bad-actors infiltrated in our government.
That’s the only logical explanation.
As long as Fauci walks free you can be assured nothing is going to change.
Found in the bin… 🙁
Thanks🔎
People need to sue. There needs to be a class action of historical size.
Duh??
Hmmm. Why now? Why hide behind the truth when it was known at the beginning? I am suspicious of timing of everything that comes out of any institution in the United States if America. Just read article over on Mike Adams’ Natural News Network about life insurance companies pay outs have sky rocketed 285% post vaccine. Hr reported Reuters had the article.
https://citizens.news/590693.html
we should to hear about that soon too I suppose?
Link is broken sorry. Can be found at Natural News
I wonder what the standard error(+/-) is on that o.2%

The depravity of these hubristic despots and their twittering media organs is breathtaking.
Just follow the science. lol.
“Some ideas are so stupid that only intellectuals believe them.” ― George Orwell
“Liberals use the word science exactly as they use the word constitutional. Both words are nothing more or less than a general statement of liberal approval, having nothing to do with either science or the Constitution.
Like so many liberal icons, Marx seldom bathed and left his wife and children in poverty. As Schlafly says, no wonder liberal women think men are pigs: Their men are pigs

This is why the history of liberalism consists of replacing things that work with things that sounded good on paper.”
