Re: My claim that NO college or pro athlete has died from Covid in 40 months ....
I've been posting this in Comment Sections for years. A few readers try to debunk me by citing the death of a student at a Division II college in Pennsylvania who died in the summer of 2020. This was a BIG story published by the New York Times. The problem with this story is this school had cancelled football in April 2020. This man had played on the football team the prior season, but he wasn't a football player when he died ... Because there was no football at his school.
The team had had zero team meetings, practices or work-outs for five months. This young man was just a regular student when he died the first week of classes. He was also the heaviest football player I have ever seen. He must have weighed 450 pounds, which of course increases the chances someone might die from Covid.
Still, the NY Times used this story to trumpet their disinformation: Covid is a health risk to athletes! As the story pointed out, he probably contracted Covid (if it was Covid) at a an off-campus party ... so his presumed case definitely had nothing to do with being a football player or even a college student. He could have contracted it at a party back in his home town. I actually don't think he had attended one class yet when he got sick.
If you want to read some "agenda journalism," read this story. It's impossible to miss how this reporter is pushing the authorized narrative - which is all false.
This is shameless, indeed. A death in 2020 of 1 athlete from prior season ??????? !!!! Unbelievable.
The bribes were pushed to virtually every institution in the US. Churches, schools, colleges., hospitals (deaths from covid). Anything to pump up "cases" with the single objective to scare the living sh*t out of people.
Their silence was bought from top to bottom. Maybe Alabama did not have good contacts in the Federal Grant Gravy Train System that keeps on giving to grifters, liars and fools.
This goes for much more than covid, too. Like the Nordstream bombings or cocaine in the White House. Then you can have the press parrot "No evidence exists......."
In this article, I mention my interactions with the director of media relations for the Southeastern Conference. I also emailed the same person questions when I learned that Pfizer was a proud corporate sponsor of the SEC (see link below).
The SEC didn't send out a big press release when this partnership was announced. The SEC spokesman wouldn't say how much $ Pfizer paid to be a partner with the SEC. I suspect this was money well spent by Pfizer as not only will the league continue to push Pfizer boosters, I doubt any of the research scientists at any of the 14 SEC academic institutions will ever produce a study critical of Pfizer's products.
I also asked the SEC spokesman if the athletic league was requiring its student-athletes to get these booster shots - or what percentage of coaches and athletes had now got those boosters the SEC recommends?
Readers won't be surprised to learn that those questions weren't answered as well.
BTW, I think I was the only journalist in the country to write a story about this partnership. So I had an exclusive. That is, this story was off-limits to the mainstream press too.
My Substack friend Thorsteinn makes a good point below. He points out that some stories (more likely in the European press) did at least mention the fact primarily old people with multiple co-morbidities were the people dying from Covid. However, the narrative-controllers then spun this inconvenient fact to highlight another bogus narrative - the reason you had to go along with the lockdowns (and then get your "vaccines") was not necessarily to protect yourself ... but to "protect grandma."
But the vaccines didn't protect grandma (if she got her shots, which she did, or if every person she ever talked to had gotten their shots). Virus "spread" somehow kept spreading - even in places where almost everyone was vaccinated and wearing masks.
So the "audible" narratives were just as bogus as the original bogus narratives. But we couldn't "confirm" that the new false narratives were also false.
Don’t “confirm” that, for most people, it’s far more likely they’ll be struck by lightning in a 12-month period (perhaps about a 1-in-730,000 chance) than they’ll die from Covid (about a 1-in-2 million chance for a healthy child 18 and under).
One's odds of hitting the lottery jackpot are about the same as the odds any healthy person under the age of 30 would die from Covid. BTW, the government keeps pushing the "false narrative" that "you too could win the lottery ... so be sure to buy your lottery tickets this week (it's for the children!)." Of course, the government gets all the money. And if you are the 1-in-2 million who wins, the government takes 60 percent off the top of your winnings.
(Can you tell I'm not a big fan of the government's lottery racket?)
Off topic (but regarding the photo I chose to run with this story) ... Since we "cut the cord" and went with Netflix and other TV services that show old TV shows, I've gone back and watched a lot of old "Columbo" episodes. They are all great. It's interesting to see how the character traits of Columbo evolved a little as the show progressed. Columbo had a little harder edge in the first season.
This is such a great article, Mr. Rice. False Narrative #1 : "Covid is a threat to everyone" set the dishonest tone right from the beginning and anyone who believed it then, unfortunately, most likely still believes it today. See how you do with this Covid Quiz...
I wonder how many of us were observing similar numbers. I've been a part time instructor at Tx Wesleyan U. here for many years. They didn't have online classes as a substitution. In fall of 2020, due to my age, I decided I should opt out for a semester or two. I watched the chart Tx Wes had for covid in the fall. It was strange! Maybe 3-4 cases each week but out of those the majority came from being exposed off campus.......meaning commuters. And, maybe one or two a month of staff were out with what was said to be covid. In other words, very few. Many are international students from China and India. Something was not adding up to me from that perspective as well. They did require masks in 2020, but beginning in 2021, they were optional. There were no reports - zero - of staff going to a hospital or worse and they have a lot of older professors.
I didn't find any reports of older faculty dying either. Just look at Congress - no organization has older people than the U.S. Senate and House. How many members of Congress have died from Covid in the last 40 months? Answer: Zero. And there must be 700 people who served in that time span ... so 0-out-of-700 mortality risk. Case Fatality Rate for Congress: 0.000 percent.
You probably had it without knowing you had it - sometime before March 2020. If my "early spread" theory is accurate, tens of millions of Americans already had natural immunity by the time of the lockdowns.
Yes..if you recall I had what I would say was covid from March 1 2020 for two weeks...had an antibody test in May I was so curious. And Quest came back with a negative result. I question the threshold they used.
I question those Quest and Abbott antibody results as well. All these big companies are partners with Big Pharma/Big Science. If Fauci et al wanted to use tests that concealed real evidence of early spread, these testing and lab companies would probably play ball, right?
Well it certainly seems to be a crime of heresy, aka social insta-death, among the Kool-Aid gluggers to even whisper the meekest little question... has been so since 2020.
That would be a good project for Columbo or Dowd. I also keep pointing out that many states did NOT cancel high school football. For example, Alabama didn't and Alabama has about 450 high schools that play football. None of these schools/teams were testing any of their athletes. They couldn't afford to do this. Someone might get tested if he had symptoms, but there was no mandatory testing of asymptomatic team members.
So this would be maybe 20,000 football players. None died. I don't remember hearing of one high school football player that had to be hospitalized because of Covid. These athletes wore no masks in games nor practices and didn't wear them on the sidelines. All 20,000 were perfectly fine. Question: So why did the NCAA Division I programs and all the pro teams have to spend millions of dollars on testing their athletes? They just flushed all that money down the toilet.
I've never seen one sports journalist who mentioned the fact no high school football players ever came down with a severe case of Covid ... with zero testing. I also emailed many sports reporters and made this point. "Why not point out this FACT in a future article?" I asked.
None replied to that story tip - Another giant "tell" about our captured "pack" journalists.
1 to 2 months (March/April 2020) into the plandemic, I started doing informal surveys of employees at the big box and home improvement stores (many and each of which had hundreds of employees).
Basically I asked one question: Are there a lot of your co-workers sick, out, or have died from Covid? Many said "no, not really", or had heard of one or two people, or often shrugged their shoulders as if to suggest that the impact was negligible. This was during the Peak Pandemic of "Cases".
They got you with the hand-sanitizer bogus narrative! I keep pointing out the "case study" that officials should have rapidly done. Simply test/survey/study check-out girls at the grocery stores (or big box stores). They were handling every item every customer touched - and they were having "close contacts" with every customer (and their kids or shopping companions). I asked the same question at my grocery stores: "No, all the check-out girls were fine." Does anyone remember a grocery store closing because they didn't have enough help? I don't. How many customers and fellow employees would these cash register clerks interact with in an 8-hour shift? Multiply that figure by five days a week and a couple of months. No threat.
Ha my hand sanitizer 2 big bottles from Sams outlast me :)
Yes, your points about volume of contact with the checkout people especially is even more to the point. 10s of thousands of items per day likely passed each checkout station. Touched by everyone in the supply chain, shipping/receiving, stockers, customers and so on!!!
The universities and the mainstream media took heaps of money from the government to go with "the narrative." So. That's the side of their bread with the butter. You as an individual and your individual health? That is not the question anyone in the senior reaches of those institutions gives a flying hooha about.
Thanks for your reporting, Bill, it's important work you are doing.
This is the list of US media that took money from the US government for "We Can Do This" the COVID-19 Public Education Campaign, "An initiative to increase confidence in COVID-19 vaccines and reinforce basic prevention measures."
Thanks for continuing to post that link, TB. I need to do a story just on that topic. I'd say that's "confirmation" these "news" organizations have a strong monetary incentive to spin all the narratives in the "authorized" direction.
Monetary incentive is also true of advertising, however, at least that is transparent-- as you read the NYT, for example, you can see the ads they run, however, you do not see anything about the deal they got from the government's "We Can Do This."
I will look forward to reading whatever you report on this.

Exactly, Commander. It applies to every false narrative ... far beyond off-limits Covid topics. In Part 2, I'll give some more obvious examples.

That's very clever. Great job. ... And I'm "Bill" to my friends!
The questions about the PCR test and the high cycle thresholds really struck home. Those were probably the key to the whole bogus operation.
Hahahaha....thanks, Bill! Looking forward to part 2.
I wonder how many of us were observing similar numbers. I've been a part time instructor at Tx Wesleyan U. here for many years. They didn't have online classes as a substitution. In fall of 2020, due to my age, I decided I should opt out for a semester or two. I watched the chart Tx Wes had for covid in the fall. It was strange!

I should add that I also refused getting that injection.......have never had it. ....and still to my knowledge have not had that virus.

@Bill Rice Thank you for the excellent writing.
I would modify your maxim for myself🙂:
Make it a criminal offense to investigate what you don’t want to ‘confirm’.
Well it certainly seems to be a crime of heresy, aka social insta-death, among the Kool-Aid gluggers to even whisper the meekest little question... has been so since 2020.
Would be great to compare year over year all "Dead Athletes" and maybe just narrow it down to college athletes:
Pre-Covid (total each year prior 10 years)
Post-Covid (Feb 2020 to present)
Post-Vaccination (Whatever month 2020 athlete vaccinations began to Present)
This sounds like a Colombo case (or Ed Dowd).
That would be a good project for Columbo or Dowd. I also keep pointing out that many states did NOT cancel high school football. For example, Alabama didn't and Alabama has about 450 high schools that play football. None of these schools/teams were testing any of their athletes. They couldn't afford to do this.

Wow
Big pharma has missed a market. High School sports.
And all the testing companies ... although I'm sure they tried to get every athlete tested three times a week in HS too.
