As noted, the "Kaiser" organizations include a medical insurance group and a network of hospitals and medical clinics that employ approximately 85,000 doctors and nurses. Presumably, the leaders of these organizations KNOW that all-cause mortality rates have sky-rocketed since 2021 (and the roll-out of the "vaccines."). They also KNOW that huge numbers of their "members" are going to the hospital and medical clinics for 100 different reasons (from heart attacks, strokes, brain fog, shingles, myriad auto-immune disorders, etc. They know healthy young people are "dying suddenly" like they never have before and that disability claims have spiked. They KNOW all this and they still haven't put two and two together. They haven't even suggested, "Hey, maybe we need to take a look at what's happening and why ... and maybe pause these vaccines until we get a definitive answer."
This tells me they are NOT obtuse. They must be some kind of psychopaths or sadists - criminals who are perfectly fine with "public health" falling into the sewer.
It is deeper than that. Look into ACA ( how the APTC works ) and Medicare Supplements/ Medicare advantage. It is a machinery, all for profit, not for health care.
As I reference in my article, all the big key groups and agencies are working to advance the same goals - or they have all figured out how they can game the system. For the life of me, I don't know why the health insurance and life insurance companies would or could remain silent (as they are paying a lot more in claims these days) ... but they are all remaining silent and going along. If they were going to speak out and raise hell, they would have already done it. So they are being compensated somehow. Or they are afraid to speak out.
They know who the big players are- they’re scared. Can’t believe it’s come to this in such a short amount of time- the water was getting hotter but we didn’t notice. 😡
It's like the approximately 40,000 "journalists" who work at mainstream news organizations. Wouldn't you think at least one or two would write a contrarian story and question some of these false and deadly narratives? But, no, this hasn't happened ... and apparently never will.
Pierre Kory was able to get an article published recently trying to politely provide some remedies to the problem with the regulatory agencies and pharma and more. I am just baffled at the extent to which people I know as well as don't know are so taken in. What;s next? Will we all be sent to a gulag? I have looked at this from all different angles and am unable to see where those of us skeptical are missing the boat. I questioned the inclusion of PEG in the vaccines right away and now know about the cationic "lipid" as well.
We aren't missing the boat anywhere. We've been in the right boat all along. Some of the experts no doubt know this. They know they were wrong, but they are not big enough people to admit this. Others don't care that they were wrong. Those people are very dangerous.
We have become - or are rapidly becoming - the Soviet Union. It looks like Big Brother has a chance to take over with barely a whimper of opposition - or organized opposition. What our side lacks is a dynamic leader to take them on. They would expose their true sorry colors if we could just engage them in a real public debate. That's what they fear and have, largely, been able to avoid.
Yes...........a leader. To me, we have become so similar to the propaganda from the 30's and actual worship of that ideology - not to mention how Stalin "censored" anyone he suspected expounding on their counter position.
As you may recall, I was idealist duriing the 60s and 70s...actually worked at Watergate for McGovern as a volunteer - right after the break in. I observed who the students were in my classes at Am. Un....It didn't take long to see I was out of my elenent, Most - were connected to embassies or sons of politicians. I was a misfit. However, my eyes were opened to the significance of networking and money. I had none but also saw how difficult it would be for an honest human to be the leader.....perhaps, of any country.
I think I'll ask my doctor....in a tele med visit as I never go there....lol! In July 2020 I asked him his opinion. He wouldn't give it.....hmm! And he then referred me to a well known allergist here. The allergist was a pleasant old fellow but - he said of course....the benefits outweigh the risks. I said but we don't know about the risks yet....too early. Then he was a bit uppity and said you know some doctors wont see you if you don't get it. I said fine....I'll isolate and try to stay healthy.
They are just dishonest people trying to make a buck. But this mask mandate while visiting their facilities is edging into Babylon Bee copywriter reality.

My husband got the J&J shot and one Pfizer booster because otherwise he couldn't visit his elderly father who lives abroad. Kaiser Permanente called him twice to ask if he didn't want to come in and get the bivalent booster. He was nice about how he said no. I would have told them to *&^% off.
Kaiser is obnoxious and will call you about cancer screenings. When I was working and had Kaiser, I did manage to get it across to them that I didn't want phone calls about cancer screenings. So they stopped. They threatened my husband with a colonoscopy if he didn't turn in his colon poop test.
After I got in Medicare, I dropped Kaiser and went with Medigap. Nobody bothers me. My husband stuck with Kaiser but now he realizes that his doctors are idiots.
But if you like vaccines, Kaiser covers them. Even Medicare Advantage Kaiser covers them, no extra charge.
KP is a snake oil selling outfit but the doctors are pretty much compelled to go along. But they aren't any good at figuring out my husband's health issues which is why I call them idiots. The only good doc was the orthopedic surgeon he worked with when he broke his fibula.
Back in elementary school in the early 1960s, one of our teachers told us that when we grew up, with all the new technology then coming our way, we might only have to work ten hours a week to make a good living.
Of course, this was before the series of murders beginning with President Kennedy, the loss of intrinsic value of our pocket change to accommodate the inflation to pay for the Viet Nam War and others to come, and many social changes including the so-called "liberation" of women, the demise of labor unions and small family-owned businesses and small family-owned farms.
But, suppose we had an equitable distribution of wealth, and people only had to work ten hours a week at jobs that actually accomplish worthwhile things for others. During the "pandemic" many of these positions were called "essential." And let's suppose that most people ate nutritious food on a daily basis and avoided all the processed "junk food" that abounds. Would we then need places like KP and all the pharmaceutical drugs they administer?
In my opinion, the worst symptom of "Covid-19" was the redistribution of wealth to the top tier.
The evidence is undeniable by now: The rich (the 1 to 2 percent) have gotten much richer while, in "real money," the poor have become much poorer. "Real inflation" is probably the real story. I've already written a piece on all the "workarounds" people have to employ to deal with this supposedly non-existent inflation. One of the first work-arounds was women entering the workplace. I'm not against women working, but I do note that this work-around had to be implemented to allow families to maintain their same standard of living. It's also why "out-sourcing" of jobs had to happen. Families couldn't afford the products they wanted if this didn't happen. It's why illegal immigration is a vital necessity. The system has to have laborers that will work cheap ... so the corporate owners can continue to make great profits.
.... I think the next big "work-around" for the State and Establishment Classes is "digital currency." We have work-arounds galore. We almost have to have them.
For those who might be interested in my "work-around" thesis (or who missed this article when I published it a while back), here it is. I really like this piece only because I haven't seen any other writers connect these dots or cite the observations which belatedly occurred to me.
All very true. Does a system designed around cheap/slave labor deserve to survive?
I know why Republican's like illegal immigration--it's a body of ready workers who are scared to push back and who will perform dirty jobs like working in pork, beef, and chicken processing plants.
Isn't the official minimum wage still $7.50/hour? Hasn't it been the same for about two decades? They can't raise it. Inflation is already too high. Allowing a higher minimum wage would make inflation even more conspicuous. They are also automating every job they can. "Self check out" - kiosk at McDonald's, etc. Look for more of those work-arounds.
J. P. Brissot came to the new United States in 1788 and toured the country, then wrote a book about his experiences. One of many things he noted: after the land was cleared of trees for agriculture in Pennsylvania, the climate was changed!
There's a lot more to the story between then and now, but I agree that one aspect of the "Climate Crisis" concerns upward redistribution of wealth. It's also a fear tactic, and (in my opinion) an excuse to rid the world of all of us "useless breathers" that pollute the environment by exhaling carbon dioxide.
We have to stop looking at medical care as being altruistic in some shape, form or fashion; it is not, especially for those that practice the current prevalent form of “Western Medicine” which is based on one thing: drug peddling!!! Medicine is simply a commodity like food, soda pop, clothes, cars, houses or oil and we must remember that is all it has become to these companies, a money making product!!! If we can begin to change the way we view what they are doing to us with their product we can remove them and the medical community from the god-like pedestal we have placed them in and start to reevaluate what we let them do to us in the name of practicing medicine!!!
I wrote somewhat about this in another Substack comment yesterday concerning my suspicion’s about Doctor’s true motives when they readily addicted 1 in 10 Americans to Benzodiazepines (Valiums and Xanax) in the late 1970’s to 1990’s and then as many if not more Americans to Opiods (Hydrocodone and Oxycodone) in the early 1980’s to late 2010’s before lawsuits brought drug manufacturer’s to their knees and all of a sudden the Medical profession realized how addictive these non-addictive meds could be! All the while for the last 40 years also addicting tens of millions of American’s to anti-depression and anti-anxiety SSRI Meds like Prozac, Paxil, Wellbutrin, Seroquel, and Celexa to name a few, even though there was ABSOLUTELY NO EVIDENCE THESE DRUGS WORKED THE WAY THE DRUG COMPANIES SAID THEY DID, it has never been shown they increase Serotonin levels in the brain, or admit that they have DEVASTATING WITHDRAWAL EFFECTS, they would never admit too when one was trying to come off of them or stop taking them!!! My friend calls Doctors, Legalized Drug Dealers, and that is basically all Western medicine is and has become, a pill for every ill!!!
If KP was really concerned about your health they would tell you about proper nutrition, but then they would have to tell you everything contrary to what our current FDA and CDC says is proper nutrition, boosting your immunity through exercise, vitamin and mineral supplementation, exposure to sunshine and soil through gardening, meeting lots of other people instead of isolating yourself in a dark hole, never wearing a face diaper ever again, etc. But they are not interested in all of that and would say that is witchcraft and conspiracy theorists unproven medical advice that will get you killed!!!
I have learned one thing from the last 3 years: if any government agency, their sponsored Doctors or a pharmaceutical company recommends it, I will stay as far away from it as humanly possible!!!
Your comment really hits home with me. In my younger days, I somewhat trusted the medical system, but had numerous bad experiences. Over the years I have read a lot of books and followed my own intuition, and have come to the same conclusions: basically whatever the medical system tells us to do, I do the opposite!
I also tell my friends that "an apple a day keeps the doctor away," but one has to have a good aim, and has to throw it really hard - a la the apple trees in THE WIZARD OF OZ. (Just kidding, of course!!)
You think it’s bad now. Wait until very every differential diagnosis can be reduced to an algorithm so AI can take over. You won’t even know you’re interacting with Dr. Max Headroom.
I have to think that the huge number of people on SSRIs is a factor that has led to elections being so skewed in a lot of places. Despite the outright ballot harvesting and fraud, there are millions of people who are not in their right minds as well. you can't make an informed choice if you are in an altered state.
Hand washing: a positive benefit against bacteria which could be harmful if swallowed - E Coli, for example, or cause infections if they get into the eyes or wounds. Virus? Not so much in my opinion. The critical element is how much of the pathogen infects. Small amounts will prove harmless. The difference between bacteria and virus is the former can self-replicate on surfaces, on the skin, once ingested. So a relatively small bacterial contamination on a door handle, towel, even soap can multiply very quickly, and if picked up on the hands multiply on the skin. A virus needs to invade a body cell in order to reproduce. A few virus on door handle, or if picked up on the hand will not multiply and will be of insufficient quantity to establish an active infection if they get into the body. We used to know this prior to 2020. Hand sanitiser is not as effective as washing with soap and running water, and in my view its use dangerous as it creates a false sense of protection. The aim of hand-washing under running water, is the soap breaks surface tension with the water allowing skin oil and dirt to which micro-organisms attach, to be lifted off the skin and rinsed down the drain together with the bugs. The object is not to ‘kill’ the micro-organisms because many are quite difficult to kill - natural selection. Hand sanitiser does not remove micro-organisms, it is alcohol based which can kill virus and bacteria. But unless applied copiously and rubbed on the hands thoroughly, it may not reach all skin folds, under and around the nails, between the ridges of the finger prints, so may not reach and kill all micro-organisms. Even then some micro-organisms can survive contact with alcohol. If some bacteria are left alive, they will reproduce. We knew this too prior to 2020, yet hand sanitiser became part of tte Covid Creed. I have seen nobody use it correctly, and many think it protects them from contact with the virus if they touch a surface where it is. It doesn’t.
Somewhere I recently made a post talking about the killing that the hand sanitizer companies must have made in the last three years - they are right up there with the mask companies, testing companies and Pfizer. I'm still putout that my wife, a school teacher, had to spend about an hour every day wiping down every desk and counter top in her classroom. Although I guess that "worked" as none of her students ever developed a severe case of Covid (sarc).
The MIT article that came out which showed that all that cleaning people did had zero effect was pretty damning. Hand sanitizer, social distancing, masks, plexiglass--none of it, NONE OF IT did a thing.
Don't you know that covid doesn't rise above the level of Plexiglas?
VA hospitals still have Plexiglas up. With the clerk wearing a mask, and the Plexiglas up, it is hard for veterans to hear. Many have hearing loss because they worked in noisy environments...flight deck of an aircraft carrier, artillery, tank battalions, infantry, etc.
VA still forcing veterans to wear a mask or they are denied medical care.
Don't forget UHG, Bill. They're the real elephant in the room. When COVID hit, UHG had internal pandemic models available that disagreed with the infamous Neil Ferguson one that was so unbelievably effed up it's stunning. Ferguson's model was a hodge-podge of poorly tested C and C++ code and it ran differently on different computers. In a word, it was totally unreliable. Totally. And that's of course the model they used for policy-making purposes because it was the one that would scare the shit out of politicians who are too stupid to breathe.
Keep up the good work, but realize that the world we inhabit, the lifestyle we have, is dying. I don't know if this is a Color Revolution funded by China, or what it is, but everything I look at indicates to me that Americans are looking at having extremely diminished lifestyles in the near future. The changes to auto emissions standards to push people towards EVs that lack the range and reliability of regular cars and trucks is not about the environment, it's about limiting mobility. They want regular people permanently locked down so that they (the elite) can freely travel to their favorite locations without having to worry about crowds or beaches full of low-class rabble.
I'm with you, Ben. We've got to "fight the powers that be." We have no choice ... because otherwise these people and organizations will continue to make all the big decisions for us ... and they'll kill any chance that our children and grandchildren will live in a free and prosperous world ... or a kind and tolerant world. They preach "equity" and "tolerance" and "diversity" but that's what they are fighting and really despise. They don't want anyone to have a voice who disagrees with their current or future agendas.
A great dig into KP. My brother and his wife use Kaiser and whatever they say goes; for that matter, what they don't say doesn't. It didn't matter what I would tell them - i.e. masking doesn't work, the shot doesn't stop transmission - or - that the number of lives it saved is debatable. Nope - they are sucked in. His wife even sewed several cloth masks in 2020 - giving them to family and friends. And get this - he is a retired lawyer, a great mathematician and she has a degree in philosophy. After her second booster, while walking her dog, she collapsed. Turned out she had lots of mini clots in her lungs. At the very same time a friend here in Ft Worth had the same thing happen....also a rabid believer in the vaccines. Other than mention this to both of them, I didn't dare say - huh - sounds like a vaccine injury to me. I said nothing. They are both okay now after blood thinners etc,....at least for now. Neither one wanted to discuss it much .....I doubt either doctor mentioned the possibility of the vax. I would think in their minds, they don't dare think it could be that but might be wondering. Oh yes....and after that happened to both, when the bivalent came along they also got that one!! As Aseem Malhotra says - they are all willfully blind.
I have been with Kaiser for a few years. My care has been very good. My personal physician is a DO, so he explains that he is forced to ask about vaccine status. I refuse them every time, of course. The only annoyance is the little girl at the front desk asks me about them, and the LVN asks me about them, and I assure them that my doctorate in pharmacy gives me the knowledge I need to make my decision.
Vaccines became the new herpes, the gift that keeps on giving. If someone out there has some creativity, do a mock Jeopardy game show where the answer to every question is "What is Covid". Most common cause of a broken fingernail? The answer is: What is Covid?!?
Now that I've had some time to think about it, I think I should have changed my headline to: Kaiser Permanent is still fighting the BAD fight.
(For those who don't know, once a headline is posted, you can't go back and change it. You can edit text in the body of the story. I usually find seven mistakes/typos in the first seven minutes after I post a story ... I'm sure I miss 14 others).
I've worked at insurance companies, including Kaiser. I guarantee you, they have the same damning data that the DoD has (and that the CDC and CMS have) that the vaccines are deadly and destructive. Plus KP also administers vaccines, so they have additional info on that side that most other insurance companies do not have. The C-levels, the board and the Kaiser foundation all have swimming pools filled with blood money.
Can you think of a way for the public to get that information? Would a FOIA request apply... since KP takes federal funding through Medicare? Do you know of any people who would become whistleblowers?
So here's how it works.... our country officials are testing our sewer water for covid DNA remnants, and are basing the recommendations upon those results. I've been covering our local emergency room for 30 years, I've never seen anything like this. I personally have only admitted two covid patients in the past 9 months, although admittedly we are a rural small er....
Despite these low numbers, because of the sewer water tests, they are still recommending that we mask in our facility. I personally haven't worn a mask in 2 years, they can fire me. (Don't care. As Joe Rogan describes it, I have reached exit velocity).
As noted, the "Kaiser" organizations include a medical insurance group and a network of hospitals and medical clinics that employ approximately 85,000 doctors and nurses. Presumably, the leaders of these organizations KNOW that all-cause mortality rates have sky-rocketed since 2021 (and the roll-out of the "vaccines."). They also KNOW that huge numbers of their "members" are going to the hospital and medical clinics for 100 different reasons (from heart attacks, strokes, brain fog, shingles, myriad auto-immune disorders, etc. They know healthy young people are "dying suddenly" like they never have before and that disability claims have spiked.

I have learned one thing from the last 3 years: if any government agency, their sponsored Doctors or a pharmaceutical company recommends it, I will stay as far away from it as humanly possible!!!
Your comment really hits home with me. In my younger days, I somewhat trusted the medical system, but had numerous bad experiences. Over the years I have read a lot of books and followed my own intuition, and have come to the same conclusions: basically whatever the medical system tells us to do, I do the opposite!
I also tell my friends that "an apple a day keeps the doctor away," but one has to have a good aim, and has to throw it really hard - a la the apple trees in THE WIZARD OF OZ. (Just kidding, of course!!)
You think it’s bad now. Wait until very every differential diagnosis can be reduced to an algorithm so AI can take over. You won’t even know you’re interacting with Dr. Max Headroom.
I have to think that the huge number of people on SSRIs is a factor that has led to elections being so skewed in a lot of places. Despite the outright ballot harvesting and fraud, there are millions of people who are not in their right minds as well. you can't make an informed choice if you are in an altered state.
110% agree.
Have you read Anatomy of an Epidemic?
BINGO
Hand washing: a positive benefit against bacteria which could be harmful if swallowed - E Coli, for example, or cause infections if they get into the eyes or wounds. Virus? Not so much in my opinion. The critical element is how much of the pathogen infects. Small amounts will prove harmless. The difference between bacteria and virus is the former can self-replicate on surfaces, on the skin, once ingested. So a relatively small bacterial contamination on a door handle, towel, even soap can multiply very quickly, and if picked up on the hands multiply on the skin. A virus needs to invade a body cell in order to reproduce. A few virus on door handle, or if picked up on the hand will not multiply and will be of insufficient quantity to establish an active infection if they get into the body. We used to know this prior to 2020. Hand sanitiser is not as effective as washing with soap and running water, and in my view its use dangerous as it creates a false sense of protection. The aim of hand-washing under running water, is the soap breaks surface tension with the water allowing skin oil and dirt to which micro-organisms attach, to be lifted off the skin and rinsed down the drain together with the bugs. The object is not to ‘kill’ the micro-organisms because many are quite difficult to kill - natural selection. Hand sanitiser does not remove micro-organisms, it is alcohol based which can kill virus and bacteria. But unless applied copiously and rubbed on the hands thoroughly, it may not reach all skin folds, under and around the nails, between the ridges of the finger prints, so may not reach and kill all micro-organisms. Even then some micro-organisms can survive contact with alcohol. If some bacteria are left alive, they will reproduce. We knew this too prior to 2020, yet hand sanitiser became part of tte Covid Creed. I have seen nobody use it correctly, and many think it protects them from contact with the virus if they touch a surface where it is. It doesn’t.
Thanks, John. Excellent info.
Somewhere I recently made a post talking about the killing that the hand sanitizer companies must have made in the last three years - they are right up there with the mask companies, testing companies and Pfizer. I'm still putout that my wife, a school teacher, had to spend about an hour every day wiping down every desk and counter top in her classroom. Although I guess that "worked" as none of her students ever developed a severe case of Covid (sarc).
The MIT article that came out which showed that all that cleaning people did had zero effect was pretty damning. Hand sanitizer, social distancing, masks, plexiglass--none of it, NONE OF IT did a thing.
Don't you know that covid doesn't rise above the level of Plexiglas?
VA hospitals still have Plexiglas up. With the clerk wearing a mask, and the Plexiglas up, it is hard for veterans to hear. Many have hearing loss because they worked in noisy environments...flight deck of an aircraft carrier, artillery, tank battalions, infantry, etc.
VA still forcing veterans to wear a mask or they are denied medical care.
Madness. I hand't read that excellent anecdote.
RSV, not to be confused with RSVP.
😂 a blessed moment of levity.
I've been on a levity kick lately. Of course levity is in the eye of the reader. I'm glad that line made you chuckle (or hit the funny face emoji!)
Don't forget UHG, Bill. They're the real elephant in the room. When COVID hit, UHG had internal pandemic models available that disagreed with the infamous Neil Ferguson one that was so unbelievably effed up it's stunning. Ferguson's model was a hodge-podge of poorly tested C and C++ code and it ran differently on different computers. In a word, it was totally unreliable. Totally. And that's of course the model they used for policy-making purposes because it was the one that would scare the shit out of politicians who are too stupid to breathe.
Keep up the good work, but realize that the world we inhabit, the lifestyle we have, is dying. I don't know if this is a Color Revolution funded by China, or what it is, but everything I look at indicates to me that Americans are looking at having extremely diminished lifestyles in the near future. The changes to auto emissions standards to push people towards EVs that lack the range and reliability of regular cars and trucks is not about the environment, it's about limiting mobility. They want regular people permanently locked down so that they (the elite) can freely travel to their favorite locations without having to worry about crowds or beaches full of low-class rabble.
I'm with you, Ben. We've got to "fight the powers that be." We have no choice ... because otherwise these people and organizations will continue to make all the big decisions for us ... and they'll kill any chance that our children and grandchildren will live in a free and prosperous world ... or a kind and tolerant world. They preach "equity" and "tolerance" and "diversity" but that's what they are fighting and really despise. They don't want anyone to have a voice who disagrees with their current or future agendas.
Color Revolution funded by the CCP... enacted by the CIA. Sadly.
A great dig into KP. My brother and his wife use Kaiser and whatever they say goes; for that matter, what they don't say doesn't. It didn't matter what I would tell them - i.e. masking doesn't work, the shot doesn't stop transmission - or - that the number of lives it saved is debatable. Nope - they are sucked in. His wife even sewed several cloth masks in 2020 - giving them to family and friends. And get this - he is a retired lawyer, a great mathematician and she has a degree in philosophy. After her second booster, while walking her dog, she collapsed. Turned out she had lots of mini clots in her lungs. At the very same time a friend here in Ft Worth had the same thing happen....also a rabid believer in the vaccines. Other than mention this to both of them, I didn't dare say - huh - sounds like a vaccine injury to me. I said nothing. They are both okay now after blood thinners etc,....at least for now. Neither one wanted to discuss it much .....I doubt either doctor mentioned the possibility of the vax. I would think in their minds, they don't dare think it could be that but might be wondering. Oh yes....and after that happened to both, when the bivalent came along they also got that one!! As Aseem Malhotra says - they are all willfully blind.
Common sense is not too common today.
I have been with Kaiser for a few years. My care has been very good. My personal physician is a DO, so he explains that he is forced to ask about vaccine status. I refuse them every time, of course. The only annoyance is the little girl at the front desk asks me about them, and the LVN asks me about them, and I assure them that my doctorate in pharmacy gives me the knowledge I need to make my decision.
It blows my mind that KP has any DO's on their payroll.
Vaccines became the new herpes, the gift that keeps on giving. If someone out there has some creativity, do a mock Jeopardy game show where the answer to every question is "What is Covid". Most common cause of a broken fingernail? The answer is: What is Covid?!?
Now that I've had some time to think about it, I think I should have changed my headline to: Kaiser Permanent is still fighting the BAD fight.
(For those who don't know, once a headline is posted, you can't go back and change it. You can edit text in the body of the story. I usually find seven mistakes/typos in the first seven minutes after I post a story ... I'm sure I miss 14 others).
If your criticizing China, perhaps you need to open your eyes and see the police state at home in US/UK commonwealth prison colonys
I've worked at insurance companies, including Kaiser. I guarantee you, they have the same damning data that the DoD has (and that the CDC and CMS have) that the vaccines are deadly and destructive. Plus KP also administers vaccines, so they have additional info on that side that most other insurance companies do not have. The C-levels, the board and the Kaiser foundation all have swimming pools filled with blood money.
Can you think of a way for the public to get that information? Would a FOIA request apply... since KP takes federal funding through Medicare? Do you know of any people who would become whistleblowers?
So here's how it works.... our country officials are testing our sewer water for covid DNA remnants, and are basing the recommendations upon those results. I've been covering our local emergency room for 30 years, I've never seen anything like this. I personally have only admitted two covid patients in the past 9 months, although admittedly we are a rural small er....
Despite these low numbers, because of the sewer water tests, they are still recommending that we mask in our facility. I personally haven't worn a mask in 2 years, they can fire me. (Don't care. As Joe Rogan describes it, I have reached exit velocity).
Love the term "exit velocity."
