But this bogus number ramped up the Fear Factor and made Americans compliant ‘sheeple.’ I also think ‘early spread’ - if proven - would detonate the all-important ‘deadly virus’ narrative.
Four reasons I think at least 10 million Americans had already been infected by, say, mid-February 2020:
1) The results of the CDC’s ONE antibody study of “archived” Red Cross blood revealed that 2.03 percent of blood donors in California, Washington and Oregon already had Covid antibodies by November 2019 (if not earlier for some of these positive donors). 2.03 percent extrapolated to the U.S. population would equal 6.7 million cases … In November. If this virus is indeed contagious, how many Americans would have been infected four months later? Probably more than 10 million.
2) I’ve identified hundreds of people in at least five countries who had Covid in the latter months of 2019 based on positive antibody results (and this doesn’t include the unknown people who infected these people). In America, I’ve identified citizens from at least 17 states who had antibody-confirmed Covid before January 1, 2020. The fact there are so many antibody-confirmed cases in so many far-flung states strongly suggests this virus was spreading person-to-person across all 50 states. That is, this virus didn’t fall out of the sky and infect these people, none of whom had recently been to China. I also don’t think I’ve come close to identifying every person who later received a positive antibody test. I also think state health agencies are covering up reports of positive antibody cases that could be “early cases.”
3) Per my research, cases of “Influenza Like Illness” were far greater in the “flu season” of 2019-2020 than the previous 10 flu seasons (at least before the CDC revised its ILI estimates).
ILI was “widespread” and “severe” in virtually every state in America with ILI outbreaks being far above baseline in six Southern states in November 2019 (also in Washington). The number of “flu tests given” was significantly higher than previous flu seasons. I believe the reason for this spike in ILI is that some percentage of these ILI cases were probably “early Covid.” I’ve also shown that “school closings due to illness” were far greater than all recent flu seasons (with the possible exception of January 2018).
4) Perhaps the main reason I believe “Early Spread” probably happened is because I’ve noted all the investigations into virus spread public health officials could and should have done … but did NOT perform. This includes more antibody studies of “archived blood,” interviews with people who had tested positive for antibodies and delayed utilization of widespread PCR and antibody tests, among other curiosities that don’t make sense if officials were sincerely interested in dating possible early cases.
I’ve also identified 27 ways I think officials might have intentionally concealed evidence of early spread.
I think officials didn’t perform these common-sense investigations for one reason only - Because they know what they would have found if they did.
I noticed that too...there was a big flu uptick in that winter...which went unmentioned and unremarked. I am pretty sure they lumped all the pneumonia's and flu like illnesses in with the combined flu positive cases reported a few years before that...so they could agitate (unsucessfully) for a pan influenza jab.
I agree with everything you said. My family went to NYC in December 2019 and 2 days after we returned we all came down with a nasty case of the flu. My 10 yr old got it the worst, she has UC and JRA and is on immunosuppressants so she got a bad case. But it was just a bad case of flu. Also, in the years since we have been "exposed" to others who have Covid and have never caught it again. Unfortunatilly I ended up getting the vaccines because NY required them to get into restaurants and other venues and have had serious complications from them.
Thanks, Elizabeth. Another testimonial anecdote for my upcoming article. I also think it's significant nobody in your family got official Covid after you were sick in December 2019.
I made an edit on the caption under the Voltaire Quote. What officials said with their 3.4 percent IFR quote is that 1-in-29 Americans who became infected - or became a Covid "case" - would later die from the disease. My first caption said "1-in-29 Americans" would die - that was wrong. Just those who were infected.
There wasn't a single confirmed case of covid 19, since the PCR test produced >97% false positives. The PCR was invented to amplify particles, not diagnose disease -- let alone fatalities.
You'll note that I'm using the antibody results - not PCR results - as the basis for my "early spread" strong candidates. Virtually no American had received a PCR test by March 1, 2020 ... which is a "red flag" and bizarre by itself.
* I would have attended my Uncle's funeral. I would have also attended a few others, like my chemistry teacher...or the local hockey legend...each would have had 1,000 attendees. Missed them all because of a lie and the complele malfeasance of elected representatives. Punishable decisions, or life long hatred. Pick one.
I am 71. All my friends are over 65. I have siblings in their 80’s. All our kids are over 40. Of all these dozens of people, not a one died of covid. The only death of anyone close to me was my friend, 72, whose liver cancer accelerated dramatically after he got his booster shot.
I have absolutely no argument about any of the things you wrote. I suspect it is all true.
But I also suspect there was a "fine Italian hand" behind all of it....the WHO, the WEF, and their leaders in every country. Also Big Pharma and Bill Gates....they had been rehearsing just that scenario in Sept or October of 2019. With our military, our press, our Defense Department, our CIA, etc etc. etc. and all their WEFFIE people in high places. Not to mention the CDC, NIAID, NIH, etc etc etc.
I think that there should be a law passed, no more pandemic planning and no more pandemic simulations...no matter what. NOT even on ZOOM.
Enter: Secret Societies! Where openness cannot be risked or maintained, there is always the "underground" which is secluded, and comfortable for these snakes. 'Don't believe that? Just have a look at Skull & Bones, Freemasonry, Knights of Malta, Rosicrucian, Shriners, and probably many more. Dare we overlook the "Society of Jesus" (RC Jesuits) which is the MOTHER of them all?
If any of these were to honestly manifest to the public what they do behind closed doors and their intentions for society, they'd be drawn and quartered! So they remain "secret."
A true pandemic would cause hundreds of people to die at home. Every covid death to my knowledge was a person who went to the hospital. Truly, if it was so deadly, we would hear ambulances constantly going to houses and picking up the deceased.
It was 0.000 percent for athletes and about 0.003 percent for sailors on three naval vessels where antibody tests were done. It was 0.000 percent for students and teachers in Pike County, Alabama. 0.125 percent for people Bill Rice knew - but 0.000 percent for people I know who died who were under 70.
"Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities."
- Voltaire
I submit to you that the scandalous lies were employed in service to this other Voltaire truism. This sheeple population is all the more apt to commit atrocities - on top of the ones they committed (and still commit in many places) for covid - in service to the lies to come that will surely grow in atrociousness. Unless we become even brighter beacons of sanity.
"What I still don’t understand is why the “watchdog” press didn’t figure this out and ask some of these questions back in the early days of Covid."
Reading articles from 4 years ago is almost like witnessing the emergence of the mass formation in real time. Back in the day, even the arbiters of truth ran some balanced stories like these:
I had it in Nov 2019. Started on Thanksgiving Day and was finished 5 days later. Weirdest and mildest cold I've ever had. My neighbor had it in Dec 2019/Jan 2020. Las Vegas, NV where a lot of Chinese come over to celebrate the Chinese New Year early.
It was JUST last evening when my wife's voice was heard speaking to her nephew regarding the 5 month old daughter of his. A beautiful baby! He and the mother were in the hospital with the baby girl, who had a fairly high fever. As it turns out, they "tested" the child for C-19 and came back positive!
The baby was afterward videoed smiling and happy, and was then taken home with no problem whatsoever. That was in Thailand, where they don't inject infants, (as I was informed.) Thank GOD for that! I think those "tests" were contrived to solicit undue jabs.
I’m an RN who worked at ground zero. I had Covid on March 5th 2020 and spent all of 2020 (yes starting the week of lockdowns) 2021 reporting about what I saw and warning against the shots. I watched everyone roll over as I stood against it and lost six jobs. I’m not laughing now. I have now recognized my fellow Americans don’t have any balls.
Thanks, BC. That Baric transcript might be very important. I just shared it with my Brownstone colleagues, some of whom are doing deep dives into the origins story.
We do need more people "getting into the weeds" on this! Thanks for providing this important source document.
Spot on. My husband and I contracted the virus on 12/18/2019. We did not go to n a Dr. Just took vitamin C and D. We never got the shots and I am glad we didn't, more people have died from the shots. My brother had Covid twice and the Dr. at the nursing home said he should get the two shots. He then died on 11/21/21.
My household had a horrible "mystery " bug in November 2019. Doctors couldn't tell us what it was and tossed useless meds at us that did less than zero to ease the symptoms. Took about a month to return to the living but the cough remained for months. We now know it was Covid.
Thank you for sharing this, Maskot. I'm working on a story where I'm just going to run excerpts from 400 to 500 people like yourself who believe they MIGHT have had Covid before this virus was supposed to be circulating in America and the world. I've been saving these for years from myriad Reader Comments and other sources. My question: Are ALL of these people wrong? If you have enough "anecdotal evidence," this ought to carry some weight IMO.
You can find the same thing with the millions of people who think they had a vaccine injury or had a loved one or friend who died from the vaccines. The number of these "anecdotes" is massive.

- Funerals attended due to 'vaccine': 3 to date
(*Funeral attendance restrictions only allowed 5 or 10 persons to attend)

I had 5 that died. None from C1984. Some died from jabs others from hospital protocol. That's it!
There weren't thousands of homeless dead in the streets either.
Very good point.
A true pandemic would cause hundreds of people to die at home. Every covid death to my knowledge was a person who went to the hospital. Truly, if it was so deadly, we would hear ambulances constantly going to houses and picking up the deceased.
My best guess would be that the true IFR is 0.001% and the rest is iatrogenic.
It was 0.000 percent for athletes and about 0.003 percent for sailors on three naval vessels where antibody tests were done. It was 0.000 percent for students and teachers in Pike County, Alabama. 0.125 percent for people Bill Rice knew - but 0.000 percent for people I know who died who were under 70.
The parts of Africa with no access to midazolam, morphine, remdesivir or ventilators fared remarkably well too.
I wonder how many Amish there are in America and how many Amish have died from Covid in the past four years?
Big fat zero according to Steve Kirsch who couldn't find a single one I remember reading a while ago.
Are you sure incidence of asthma is only about 0.001%?
