We originally outlined the new COVID-19 variant along with the international motives of the science community for delivering it HERE.  Previously the new worrisome, 10 spike, vaccine resistant variant was called “The B.1.1.529 variant“.  However, those types of names do not work well for larger fear narrative distribution.  As a result, the international scientific community has given it the name “Omicron“.  Perhaps the “Merry Christmas” variant would be culturally insensitive.

Globally, and not coincidentally –politically– the greatest challenge to those in power is a massive rise in direct inflation.  What is the quickest way to eliminate the political risks due to inflation?  Shut down demand….. lock down the economies… turn the values closed on economic activity, and then watch oil prices plummet.

As the science is told, Omicron originated in South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Namibia, Lesotho, Eswatini, Mozambique and Malawi.  Government officials around the world have responded to the Omicron variant by banning travel from those countries.  The U.K and Australia kicked off the latest round of fear porn with their travel bans.  Subsequently, fellow EU nations Austria, France, Italy, the Netherlands and Malta all announced imminent entry bans to all travelers who’ve entered South Africa and surrounding nations in the past two weeks.

In North America, Canada will be “banning the entry of foreign nationals…that have traveled through southern Africa in the last 14 days,” due to the new coronavirus variant Omicron, Health Minister Jean-Yves Duclos said at a news conference Friday. (link)  And right on cue the Biden administration joins the effort:

WHITE HOUSE – “This morning I was briefed by my chief medical advisor, Dr. Tony Fauci, and the members of our COVID response team, about the Omicron variant, which is spreading through Southern Africa. As a precautionary measure until we have more information, I am ordering additional air travel restrictions from South Africa and seven other countries. These new restrictions will take effect on November 29. As we move forward, we will continue to be guided by what the science and my medical team advises.” (more)

Courage is not the absence of fear.  Courage is being fearful and yet taking action despite that fear.  One Australian patriot, a former soldier, shares his message of courage while protesting to support the freedom of all Australians. {Direct Rumble Link}

Joshua 1-9:  “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”

When this madness is over, there will be a reckoning.  History serves as a guide for what can be expected.  The officials within government who are pushing their totalitarian dictates under the guise of COVID fear will not succeed.   There will be a reckoning; of that, I am certain.

Newport News shipbuilder Huntington Ingalls reverses their position on the vaccine mandate and claims they misinterpreted the federal requirement. After further consultations with the federal government, the shipbuilder now says the vaccine mandate doesn’t apply.  “This recent information is different from what we understood to be the government’s and the Navy’s intent,” the company said.

Huntington Ingalls previously said all of its 25,000 workers would need to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 as a “condition of continued employment” due to the vaccine mandate for federal workers and contractors. [Media Link] However, Newport News Shipbuilding President Jennifer Boykin said in a Facebook update Thursday that Huntington Ingalls clarified their Navy contracts “don’t include a vaccine mandate at this time.”

[Via Facebook]  President and CEO Mike Petters issued a message to employees Nov. 16 indicating that the government’s Jan. 4, 2022, deadline for vaccination is suspended. The message also clarified that after considerable work with the Navy to meet the intent of the mandate, our Navy contracts with Newport News Shipbuilding do not include a vaccine mandate requirement at this time.

As more data revels less benefit to vaccination status; and additional data reveals vaccinated individuals are becoming the group with the most adverse health outcomes; the scientific and medical community -writ large- are facing increased scrutiny to justify the public benefit of a seemingly endless booster approach with little upside.

In essence, what good are all these vaccinations; and specifically all the rules of proving your vaccinated status vis-a-vis passports; if the vaccinated can still be infected and spread the virus?   The voices asking this question are growing more loud by the day.  Then, all of a sudden….

Isn’t that convenient?  A new variant that tamps down the issue of questioning science about why the vaccine doesn’t seem to work.  It appears the COVID science always has a way to explain why the COVID science may not work.

A big win for medical privacy and the principles of freedom.  Ford, General Motors and Stellantis have agreed the United Auto Workers union members will not be forced to take the mandatory vaccine as a condition of employment.  [UAW Announcement] Additionally, the vaccine status of the workers will remain private with a policy of private and voluntary disclosure.

UAW – At a meeting Monday evening, the COVID-19 Joint Task Force, comprised of the UAW, Ford, General Motors and Stellantis, has aligned on a policy of voluntary and confidential disclosure of vaccination status for UAW members. Each company will provide additional communication to employees on how, where and when to report their vaccination status.

In addition to encouraging members to disclose their vaccination status, the Task Force continues to urge all members, coworkers, and their families to get vaccinated and get booster vaccinations against COVID-19, while understanding that there are personal reasons that may prevent some members from being vaccinated, such as health issues or religious beliefs.

After reviewing the status of CDC and OSHA guidelines, the Task Force also decided it is in the best interest of worker safety to continue masks in all worksites at this time. (read more)

This helps swing the pendulum back toward the American worker.

Something troubling is happening in Scotland.  At least 21 babies under four weeks old died in September, a rate of 4.9 per 1,000 births.  The former average was 2.1 deaths per 1,000 births.  The nationalized health service tracks records, because everyone is on the same system; that’s why when an internal alarm is triggered by the data as it rolls in, they stop and look immediately.  Public Health Scotland says:

“Exceeding the upper control limit indicates there is a higher likelihood that there are factors beyond random variation that may have contributed to the number of deaths.”

In Australia’s Northern Territory, Chief Minister Michael Gunner has announced the Australian Defense Force (ADF) has been enlisted to start moving COVID positive cases into quarantine camps in Howard Springs.

The communities of Binjari and Rockhole were immediately placed into hard lockdown after nine cases of COVID-19 infection were detected in the region.  The Chief Minister is claiming the vulnerability of the aborigine community make drastic action necessary. “We’re conscious of the fact that this can have some impacts on people’s mental health as well as their general well being,” Police Commissioner Jamie Chalkner told NT News.

NT Chief Minister Michael Gunner is a fast talking man of notoriously intemperate disposition who will not allow any criticism of his totalitarian tendencies.  Gunner has promised to be as brutal as needed to stop COVID spread in the region. He will accept no vocal dissension to his mandates from citizens in the state.  All vaccine hesitant citizens are considered enemies of the state and now subject to arrest if they voice any objection.

The full press conference from Chief Minister Michael Gunner is below.   His views on mandatory vaccination should be watched to be believed.  If permitted, Gunner will use the military to enforce every aspect to his territorial mandate policy.

Dr. Anthony Fauci appears on ABC News to discuss the new definitions of “fully vaccinated“, which now includes the need to receive booster shots.  However, one big issue that stands as a common sense counter argument to the efficacy of vaccines is the number of people dying with/from COVID-19 infections is now higher than it was before the vaccination program began.

Fauci ducks, dodges and weaves around the issue by claiming the Delta variant is more dangerous than the original SARS-CoV-2 infection.  However, scientists still debate whether the mRNA vaccine created the Delta variant.

Regardless, the baseline fact is that more people are presumably dying now with/from the virus -while the vaccine is in place- than were dying with/from the virus before the vaccine was introduced.  Meanwhile, the Fauci, CDC, NIH solution is to vaccinate more…  vaccinate harder… vaccine boosters for everyone.  The political science is committed to the vaccine approach.

Earlier today, while sharpening the saw, I was having a deep discussion with a dear friend who possesses a large intellectual grasp on the big picture.  Unfortunately, like many of us, my friend is deep behind enemy lines and a subject of totalitarian COVID rules that would shock our year-ago selves.

Part of our conversation covered the absence of leadership from anyone, anyone in a position of influence, who could eloquently connect the challenges of COVID regulation to the humanity of people.  It is an important issue for me, because I -like most of you- can see the damage all around me; yet, we are supposed to pretend this ‘new normal’ is not isolating, not killing, not undermining the most vulnerable around us.

Poet Robert Burns called it “man’s inhumanity to man,” a premise that as humans we are destined to be forlorn, because the feeling of sadness is a steeper slope than the rise of happiness.  The counteracting force to battle isolation is fellowship, a larger connection to our social network.

The governmental premise of COVID isolation, quarantine and lockdown protocols are all antithetical to the essential human need, connection.  Nothing within those regulatory rules has anything to do with public health.  Exactly the opposite is true – isolation, loneliness and a disconnect from people is far deadlier than any virus.  However, even more deadly is this toxic and purposeful division between the vaccinated and unvaccinated.

No one in a position of political influence is talking about the damage to our social fabric created by government COVID regulations.  The silence is deafening; however, Neil Oliver is a voice in the wilderness who deeply understands the immoral nature of their silence.  WATCH:

The protests have been growing steadily each Saturday in Melbourne, Australia (State of Victoria, it’s Saturday there).   In addition to being against the vaccine mandate, the protests are against a massive overreach by the Premier of the State of Victoria, Daniel Andrews, and his proposed legislation to make COVID rules a part of permanent power.

The pandemic bill has been stalled in the upper house, as the Andrews government desperately tries to find one more crossbench member to support the bill after Adem Somyurek decided to vote against the legislation.  However, as the protest marches against the pandemic bill grow in size, Antifa and the Australian communists (Greens Party) have activated their leftists to attempt a counter protest in favor of the government lockdowns and totalitarian controls.   Police are concerned the two groups might meet.

There are tens of thousands of Victorians on the streets this week walking toward Parliament House.  [FACEBOOK LIVESTREAM]
