    “The End of Free Speech is the End of Science.” — Dr. Jay Bhattacharya

    In a brilliant and powerfully moving speech at the James Madison Program at Princeton University, April 14, 2024, Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, currently Director of the National Institutes of Health, described the horrific suffering of the most vulnerable people, and  people throughout the poorest areas of the world, as the result of the Covid-19 lockdown’s shattering of the  methods by which these destitute people survived.

    These poorest populations became unable to live, as the result of the draconian destruction of their way of life by the useless coerced lockdown, crippling their lives, and caging them at whatever constituted their “home,” destroying their ability to sustain their subsistence living, condemning them to starvation. 

    The following three paragraphs are brief, verbatim passages of this extraordinary speech.

    “In the Spring of 2020 you have a situation that is in my view the most classist policy I have ever seen in my life.  I called it a trickle down epidemiology, but the theory is that somehow if we make the poor suffer, we can all (“all” meaning the relatively well off) benefit. Among the first thoughts I had during the early days of the lockdown was this lockdown is going to kill a tremendous number of people in the poorest parts of the world, and it did.  This was the first day of the lockdown in India in March, 2020.  The consequence of the economic devastation caused by the lockdowns:  I could just see it in February, 2020, when I first started hearing about lockdowns, and by March, 2020 when the lockdowns were put in place it was going to lead to the starvation of mass numbers of people, it was going to lead to mass poverty and mass death, and it did.  This was the first day of the lockdown in India in March of 2020, on the advice of people like Antony Fauci.  There were a half billion migrant workers living in the big cities of India:  they make their living by day to day selling coconuts to rich people on the street, and that represents their entire wealth. They take the money from the coconut sales, buy coconuts for the next day and they feed their families with the rest.  So lockdown meant they couldn’t sell their coconuts, and that means their life savings was gone.  The Prime Minister of India said you have to go back to your home Villages;  the Indian infrastructure is not set up to move a half billion people in a single day and so a half billion people found some way, sometimes by train, sometimes by bike, sometimes by walking up to a thousand miles, and on the day the lockdown happened a thousand people died that day from the lockdown order.”

    “I think it was February, 2022, Uganda reopened schools after the longest closure in the world due to the lockdown:  for most students it was the first time back in the classroom in nearly two years;  15 million kids out of school means those kids do not have basic human capital to learn how to do jobs that will allow them to lead healthy productive lives, and 4 ½ million of those kids never came back from those closed schools and were just gone, lost to follow up.  This story is not just unique to Uganda.  In the Philippines they had a policy that not only kept the kids out of school, but wouldn’t let kids out of the house for two years, so you had kids born in the Philippines that didn’t see the light of day for two years.  The impact, again, on the global south is almost impossible to exaggerate.  What we’re talking about is a tide of generational inequality, a tide of poverty that we should have cared about.  The most heartbreaking thing, and this is from a UN Office of Drugs and Crime in 2021, is why some of those kids stayed out of school for so long and never came back.  We put families in the place where they had to choose between what I’m about to describe, and starvation; and a lot of families chose this:  the reason why a lot of those kids never came back was that their families sold their children into sexual slavery or to child labor.  The effects of the pandemic lockdown on children have been far reaching, with children trafficked for sexual exploitation, forced marriage, forced begging and forced criminality.  What we have is an utter human rights catastrophe that happened, with the public health authorities of this country  perfectly happy to sign on, and its not like I’m giving you fringe reports:  these are reports of UNICEF…They’re screaming as loud as they can and we’re just ignoring them.”

    “This was an incredibly shortsighted policy, but you couldn’t get anybody to listen, and pointing this out was a very difficult thing in 2020:  it’s not just that you couldn’t get anybody to listen, but when you said it you were subject to, and I know this from personal experience, you’re subjected to vicious attacks.  I could go on literally for hours and hours and hours to show you the collateral harm:  there isn’t a single aspect of human well being that was not damaged significantly by the policy of lockdown, especially for the poorest people, especially for the most vulnerable.  UNICEF put out an estimate that 150 million additional children were plunged into poverty due to – again they always say covid-19, but in fact it’s the economic policies adopted to address covid-19 that were the cause of the impoverishment.”

    In addition to his MD from Stanford University, Dr. Bhattacharya holds a PhD in Economics from Stanford, and is uniquely qualified to assess the disastrous economic consequences, globally, as a result of the Covid-19 lockdown.  But his dissent from the orthodox policies inflicted, globally, by the de facto dictatorship of Dr. Fauci, and the groveling medical establishment in lockstep with him, and Dr. Bhattacharya’s refusal to opportunistically conform to this dangerous orthodoxy led to his ostracism, and he endured death threats both to himself and his wife.  It is terrifying to learn that dissent from conformity in the United States, which boasts “freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of association as inalienable rights,”  in deplorable reality this society demands obedience to an Orwellian Ministry of Truth, suffocating thought, as the punishment for dissent is often more deadly than is the so-called Covid-19 virus.

    On October 3, 2020, Dr. Bhattacharya co-authored the “Great Barrington Declaration,” together with Professor Sunetra Gupta, an epidemiologist at Oxford and Harvard Professor, Dr. Martin Kulldorff.  The hysterical response from the orthodox medical establishment was similar to the hysteria of the Vatican when Galileo committed the heresy of contradicting the Vatican’s false orthodoxy. 

    The Declaration was signed by 941,261 expert Medical and Public Health Scientists throughout the world.  The signatories included Dr. Michael Levitt, recipient of the 2013 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.  But the force and truth of this Declaration was so great that the orthodox medical establishment, especially Dr. Fauci, regarded by some as the Pope, and Dr. Francis Collins connived to smear, discredit and entirely eviscerate the scientific experts who had promulgated it. The fact that the Declaration had the advantage of providing solid fact, and offered enormous benefit to the public was irrelevant to the fallacious orthodoxy being perpetrated by Fauci and Collins. In collusion, the two engaged in defamatory actions reminiscent of gangster tactics, concealing alarming  facts, especially the numerous serious adverse and sometimes fatal reactions to the vaccine, which the public needed to know to enable them to make “informed consent” to relevant medical treatment.

    When the Covid-19 vaccine became available, it was mandated, though inadequately tested, with innumerable adverse reactions to the vaccine denied, or egregiously ignored to the extent that the mandate, which violated the Nuremberg Code, the UNESCO Universal Declaration of Human Rights and Bioethics, bears terrifying similarity to the  forced medical experiments infamously carried out during World War II.  With vaccine manufacturers given liability protection, the public was, in essence, guinea pigs.

    Several centuries ago, in Salem Massachusetts, there was a witch hunt, and persons accused of witchcraft were frequently put to death.  Less than a century ago McCarthyism terrorized American citizens, and millions of lives were damaged or destroyed by the mere  accusation, or even the suggestion that they were Communists, or Communist sympathizers.  And, more recently, anyone questioning the “official” Covid-19 policies became “suspect,” shunned, and often socially excommunicated. Where is freedom of speech, or even freedom of thought? Without the right to dissent,  self-censorship becomes a survival tactic, thought processes atrophy, and a nation of docile, unimaginative robots is born. We are alarmingly close to that, and it is only the appointment of bravest persons such as Dr. Jay Battacharya to the Directorship of the National Institute of Health that provides an example that persons of great courage and integrity may prevail.

    But, perhaps it is the sincerity of Dr. Bhattacharya’s commitment to the equality of all, the value of each person, and his concern for the needs of the most vulnerable and the poorest lives on our planet, in addition to those financially better off, or the “elites,” that distinguishes him, elevating him to the highest ethical level, worthy of his profession as physician and authority of health policy, and as noble human being.

  • COVID Crimes.  When Will The Perpretrators Be Prosecuted?

    COVID Crimes. When Will The Perpretrators Be Prosecuted?

    How did COVID-19 present itself?

    It was fatal car crashes and ensuing trauma-related deaths falsely coded as COVID, it was bacterial pneumonia, falsely named, it was hospitals getting more money for COVID diagnoses and COVID protocols (1), it was false pronouncements of PHEIC from the globalist WHO attached at the hip to the WEF. (2)

    It was the cold, it was the flu, it was data manipulation writ large, where jabbed patients are listed as unvaccinated weeks after their hospital admittances.  It was a perfect fabricated pretext for a global financial coup which continues to impoverish and kill us as the oligarchs grow richer and more powerful.

    As long as global populations remain incredulous, fake pandemics can be fabricated through contrived Emergency Authorizations, coding changes to Death Certificates which falsely inflate deaths attributed to COVID, invalid testing, and data manipulation. This is what happened to us.

     

    (Transcript here: Video: How COVID-19 Death Certificates Are Being Manipulated. By Montana Physician Dr. Annie Bukacek/ Transcript By Dr. Annie Bukacek, Global Research, April 08, 2020/ Liberty Fellowship MT 6 April 2020 – Mark Taliano)

    Per Mike Yeadon, the central operational deception is the tests (PCR and other tests) and the central conceptual deception is the mask. Faulty testing means invalid data, whereas ubiquitous mask-wearing creates the perception of a deadly virus, even as the WHO has admitted the virus was in line with the flu and renowned epidemiologist Dr. Ioannidis stated that it was a Low Infection Fatality Rate virus. Ioannidis also noted that distinctions in data-recording were not being made between dying with COVID and dying of COVID. This sleight of hand was reiterated by Dr. Ngozi Ezike.

    (Transcript here: THE DEATH COUNT EXPLAINED: Dr. Ngozi Ezike, director of Illinois Department of Public Health – Mark Taliano)

    The endgame has been to inject us with bioweapons, and they succeeded to a large degree. And at what cost?  Jab-incurred excess mortality rates are skyrocketing, as are jab injuries, with Australia data showing a 5,162% increase in excess deaths in the first 38 week of 2022 (3), and top insurance analyst Josh Stirling claiming the U.S. alone is experiencing 600,000 jab-induced deaths per year. (4)

    If not now, when will the perpetrators of these massive crimes against humanity be prosecuted?

    ***

    Law is not hard, unless you go to law school in Germany, where you learn nothing about real life and everything about the most complicated theoretical legal doctrine in the most boring classes you´ve ever seen.

    Every legal case, however, always starts with the facts, which make up the story. If you don´t get the facts right, then your legal analysis is useless, or, in your worst case scenario: you put the wrong man on death row. In our case at hand I would suggest the following approach at telling the story:

    1. We need to start with exposing the Covid plandemic (not global warming or the free masons – or worse, that comes later) in three steps:

    1. There was never a novel Corona virus, only the four endemic Corona viruses which have been endemic since, if I remember correctly, the 1960ies. That is why they (Mr. Global) chose this virus for rolling out the plandemic: It was everywhere anyway (in most flus and colds, for example), and if you set the PCR test for this virus only, plus misuse it grossly (45 cycles of amplification) you´re almost guaranteed to find it pretty much everywhere. Add to this pictures and videoclips of military trucks in Bergamo, Italy on streets littered with (probably mostly empty) caskets and white hospital tents in front of hospitals in Newy York plus the msm and politicians screaming: we´re all going to die, unless a vaccine is found, you have the start of the plandemic.

    We know now, of course that up until the start of the “vaccination” campaign there were no excess deaths anywhere. The spikes in New York and Bergamo were the result of the panic and gross medical malpractise: 94% of the people who allegedly died of Covid in both cities, died of completely different causes. In Bergamo, patients in nursing homes had been vaccinated shortly before the “pandemic” (I forget if it was the flu shots or sth else) arrived, weakening their already weakened immune system further, then they transferred people who were probably suffering from the flu to the nursing homes to make room for all those poor victims of the plandemic.

    In the nursing homes the flu killed many of those patients who´s immune system had been deliberately weakened. Similar story in Newy York: Many fled to the hospitals in panic who would otherwise (without the panic mongering) have stayed at home, or even in bed to recover.

    There some ran into nosocomial infections, others died of the “Fauci protocol” which ordered the doctors to use remdesivir and put people on a respirator. Bottom line, however: No excess mortality up until the start of the “vaccination” campaign anywhere, just panic mongering.

    Even then the WHO and Prof. John Ioannidis of Stanford university found that the Infection Fatality Rate of this allegedly novel Corona virus was between .14 and .15%; in hindsight, however, according to a newer meta study, this virus plandemic- just like its precursor, the swine flu in 2009 (check the video “profiteers of fear” on youtube) – turned out to be no more dangerous than a mild flu. Some people experienced the loss of smell and taste, or felt that this was somewhat different from a regular flu. But the loss of smell and taste happens with the flu as well, and whatever made this feel different (chemtrails?, for example may have added to this):

    There was no excess mortality until the start of the “vaccination” campaign. Plus: There have always been alternative methods of treatment available which have always worked for the flu: Vitamin C, D, zink, hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, etc. But Fauci et al ordered not use them, which translates into purposeful withholding of – effective ! -treatment, for the sole purpose of making them take the “vaccine”, as the definition of herd immunity all of a sudden excluded natural immunity who´s protection should have taken center stage.

    Add to this: The politicians who were trying to make us believe that panic was in order kept on partying and flying on airplanes without any masks on. Would they have done this if if there had been a dangerous novel Corona virus out there? The flu all of a sudden disappeared completely when Covid hit.

    Doctors seem to have forgotten about differential diagnostics (which even the CDC advised in order to find out what really caused the symptoms) and since when was there such a thing as “asymptomatic infections”? Mr. Global has full control over the msm, so how come the fight over “gain of function” experiments entered the mainstream debate? Could it be that that, too, was designed to make people believe that we were dealing with a very dangerous (“it comes from a lab, and there, they work on making viruses more dangerous”) virus.

    At any rate: The PCR test was never approved for diagnostic purposes, and it cannot tell us anything about infections, as its creator, nobel prize laureate Kary Mullis said over and over again – regardless of matter how it is applied.

    Among other problems: it cannot distinguish between “dead” and “live” matter, and it never finds a whole virus, which is needed for an infection, as whatever is taken from the throat or the nose is destroyed or quashed before it goes into the machine.

    The kicker, of course, is that the now infamous idiot Drosten from Charité Hospital in Berlin (at the behest of the totally corrupt WHO which went on to recommend his test as the gold standard for the detection of infections to the entire world) set his test to 45 cycles of amplification when the usefulness of the test ends at 24 cycles, and you end up with more than 90% false positives at 35.

    The experts who have testified to this are – among others – Dr. Mike Yeadon, Dr. Jay Couey, Dr. Sona Pekova (PCR) and Dr. Astrid Stuckelberger and Dr. Silvia Behrend (who worked for and/or advised the WHO and have insider knowledge about the “cases” were created with the help of the misused PCR test,in order for the WHO to declare the (freely invented by them) public health emergency of international concern, which would then be the basis on which they (the WHO with no democratic authorization whatsoever) claim the use of untested new drugs was possible.

    What this – the deliberate and premeditated creation of the plandemic – adds up to is, of course: intent.

    Here’s a brilliant presentation by biologist Dr. Jay Couey from Pittsburgh that explains most of this scientifically. 

    Experts: Dr. Mike Yeadon, Dr. Jay Couey, Dr. Sona Pekova, and many others

    1. The “vaccines” were already known to Biontech/Pfizer as highly dangerous and potentially lethal (myocarditis, pericarditis, blood clotting) when they applied for a patent for them in Nov 2019 (!). This brilliant presentation by Italian research biochemist Dr. Gabriele Segalla proves it beyond a shadow of a doubt:

    THE PANDORA’s VACCINE from Exterius on Vimeo.

    Experts: For example Dr. Gabriele Segalla, Dr. Hedley Reese, Prof. Werner Bergholz and many others.

    This shows intent on the part of the “vaccine makers” to cause deadly harm.

    1. So why was this not detected when this toxic cocktail went through the medical trials, why was it approved by the health care authorities in the US, Europe and everywhere else? Because no studies were conducted at all, because the health care authorities have long since been captured by those oligarchs behind the pharmaceutical industry, and because, as Brooke Jackson´s case against Pfizer showed: The government is not “our”, but “their” government, the same is true for “our” agencies. The power that was really in charge was the DoD (just like the military was – crucially – involved in this in Germany, and probably everywhere else, too): The “trials” where, as RFK, jr put it in an excellent interview with Sasha Latypova: Kabuki theater; they just pretended to do these trials to make the people believe that they had been tested and shown to be “safe and effective”. In reality, this (not the virus) is the bioweapon which the DoD used against its own people, the American populace – but also against everyone else. This excellent podcast interview by Robert F Kennedy, jr with Sasha Latypova shows it beyond a shadow of a doubt.

    Experts: Dr. Sasha Latypova, Brooke Jackson, Katharine Watt and many others.

    This shows intent on the part of the “government” and its agencies, and: this leads right into part two of the “case” = the story to be exposed in a court of law: sdrn only a show was done, and in truth the DoD = the Deep State wanted to use bioweapons gg the own people, because in truth it’s not the own people, and not the own government, sdrn the worldwide Deep State, which goes after the whole mankind u only disguises itself as “own” government and “own” authorities with Katherine Watt u Sasha Latypova

    2) Who is behind this and what is the purpose of all this?

    1. This could be dealt with next: The eugenics background, the freemasons, the Vatican, House of Windsor, British eugenics society founded in 1906, American eugenics society founded in 1926, UN and UNESCO, WHO, WEF (CIA creation, in 1971), Young Global Leaders program (1992, among the first to graduate: Angela Merkel, Bill Gates, later Tony Blair, Jose Aznar, etc., now: Jacinda Ardern, Ursula von der Leyen (president of the EU, another CIA creation in my view), Sebastian Kurz of Austria, and of course, Justin Trudeau). All that money (stolen from us, the people) poured into msm (their most important propaganda tools) and politics by those who are pulling the strings (Mr. Global) of their puppets, the above mentioned people and entities.
    2. Ultimate goal: population control by way of population reduction plus (for those who survive) setting up a one world government under the utterly corrupt UN and a one world digital currency, issued by their bank, of course. In order to get us to go along with this, permanent panic mode is necessary in their view, so these tools out of their tool box come in handy: global warming/climate change, food shortages, energy shortages, Ukraine war, possibly war in south east asia. According to their SPARS plan (of 2017, Johns Hopkins) all those politicians who are beginning to apologize ore even stepping down, and even the Swiss government now letting go of the “vaccines” and threatening to hold any doctor responsible if they continue with this, is just part of the agenda, maybe “limited hangout”, as they are now under much more pressure than expected; too many of us have woken up and are not playing along.

    At this point we´re dealing with genocide.

    1. Spirituality will also need to be discussed, as this dimension appears to be crucial (not so much religion, as the churches, too, seem to have been infiltrated: Where have they been over the last 3 years? And: Look at the pope and the Dalai Lama pushing the “vaccines”,

    We will need to organize this second part, but that can be done when we see how part one works out. We did this before, in our Model Grand Jury Investigation. See this.

    And we are still in touch with those experts, many of whom have become friends.

    What we were lacking is an independent judiciary that would give us a fair hearing, and hear our witnesses and look at our documentary evidence. That has changed, and now we are ready for the real thing.

    The Worldwide Corona Crisis, Global Coup d’Etat Against Humanity

    by Michel Chossudovsky

    Michel Chossudovsky reviews in detail how this insidious project “destroys people’s lives”. He provides a comprehensive analysis of everything you need to know about the “pandemic” — from the medical dimensions to the economic and social repercussions, political underpinnings, and mental and psychological impacts.

    “My objective as an author is to inform people worldwide and refute the official narrative which has been used as a justification to destabilize the economic and social fabric of entire countries, followed by the imposition of the “deadly” COVID-19 “vaccine”. This crisis affects humanity in its entirety: almost 8 billion people. We stand in solidarity with our fellow human beings and our children worldwide. Truth is a powerful instrument.”

    Excess mortality is reported from Norway – and all over the western world or Global North. Excesses never heard before. In the ranges of between 15% and 25%. In some countries even higher. Worrisome. No clear causes can be detected.

    See this.

    Already more than a year ago Dr. Michael Yeadon, former VP Pfizer and Chief of Science at Pfizer, warned that excess deaths will appear in the next 3-5 and even up to ten years, because of the false and criminal, untested mRNA vaxxes.

    He elaborates. After all the boosters – 3 to 4 shots – the immune system has lost up to 80% of its defenses. Thus, people are more vulnerable to catching any kind of disease. Plus, myocarditis and sudden deaths are on the rise – even in young people, especially those who practice sport or are sports professionals.

    In addition, graphene oxide injection and other concoctions being injected, cause all sorts of cancers, mostly in reproductive systems of men and women, as well as several types of cancers of the blood, of the eyes causing blindness… liver and kidney diseases… and much more.

    In addition, these injections, called vaccines, also cause massive infertility. In some countries life-childbirth was down by up to 40% in 2022.

    Dr. Yeadon warned that the diseases will be very difficult to trace back to the vaxxes, but that’s where the origin is.

    A clear eugenics agenda, mass depopulation, unprecedented.

    Genocide is a word that doesn’t meet the extent of the atrocity that’s behind what we are living through — what the cabal is carrying out.

    The UN Agenda 2030alias Klaus Schwab’s (WEF) Great Reset and the nefarious, all-digitizing 4th Industrial Revolution, also includes an asset-stripping plan never seen and experienced before in human history. Assets of covid mandates-caused bankruptcies are sucked upwards into the vaults of the financial oligarchs and the Dark Invisible Financial Cabal – which is funding and orchestrating the WEF and which is in control of over 90% of the world’s mainstream media. See this.

    The Agenda 2030 (originally called Agenda 21) was prepared by a very long hand, dating back 60 to a hundred years. Be aware, the Dark Invisible Financial Cabal acts as a cult. In order to be successful, it has to tell the people what it is up to.

    Indeed, over the past several decades we have received many warnings of what to expect – namely a Health Tyranny, enhanced by a fake Global Warming and Biodiversity Green agenda.

    The New Green is a fascist neoliberal, make-believe environmental protection farse. In reality – far from environmental protection. To the contrary. Yet, people throughout the world fall for it. Propaganda is deadly. We have to stop it.

    *

    The Plan’s execution started in January 2020. First with a fake disease called Covid-19 – the mortality of which is about the same or less than that of the common flu, some 0.03% to 0.07%. And unbelievably – the Covid-19 pandemic, or rather the Plandemic – hit all 193 UN member countries at once, on the same day. The vast majority of the people believed it.

    However, an intense media-driven fear-campaign, with strictly totalitarian-enforced mandates of lockdowns and face masking, distancing people from each other, lowering their moral even further, i.e. their self-esteem, their defenses, insecurity, dictatorial measures, led to world tyranny.

    It sounds like a project collaborated by the Tavistock Institute on Social Engineering of the Masses. (See also Daniel Estulin’s book of the same title (Copyright 2015)). Tavistock in close collaboration with DARPA, the secretive Pentagon thinktank, specializing in mind-control, MK-Ultra and societal manipulation through the mass-media and often deadly false flag events.

    The Global West has quietly suspended in most countries their Constitutions, either by silent decree, or by Parliamentary votes, where Parliamentarians were co-opted to be part of the crime. But the vast majority of populations have no idea. They still refer to democracy — when “democracy” we never had in the last 2000 years and beyond.

    And just to be sure that we all understand what the Greek term of “democracy” really meant – supposedly born in Delphi, Greece, some 800 years BC and first practiced in ancient Athens 507 years BC by Athenian leader Cleisthenes. It meant one person one vote – but only for educated male, who were qualified for sociopolitical decisions.

    Just a word on our sloganized and vastly over-used term democracy. This is what google has to say:

    Athenian democracy was a system of government where all male citizens [age 20 and above] could attend and participate in the assembly which governed the city-state. This was a democratic form of government where the people or ‘demos’ had real political power. Athens, therefore, had a direct democracy.

    You may want to make a note of it before using the misleading term “democracy” freely again. Let’s first see what we mean by “democracy” and how we have learned to manipulate it for the service of the powerful.

    This brief observation on democracy may be important, if ever we get back to “democracy” in a new society. Let’s make sure that the term is defined clearly in every Constitution of every sovereign country.

    Back to excess deaths.

    What can we do?

    For most of the vaxxed population it’s too late. They can just hope that their shot was not deadly, or that it may have been a placebo. In every trial – which this entire vaxx crime was and is – there are placebos.

    We should inform as many people as we can of these horrendous circumstances – of the excess deaths and of the whys – so that people wake up and do not get drawn into vaxxing anymore, and so that they help others waking up.

    We should initiate criminal procedures against all governments who knowingly participated in this crime, especially the Health Ministers and the management of WHO, the UN system, the WEF — and the eugenist oligarch suspects we all know. And indeed, get to the bottom of the Cabal.

    A Grand Jury trial has already determined the guilty – with evidence statements by witnesses from the key organizations behind this magnum crime. See all the sub-links in the “Stop World Control” video below.

    We must immediately stop and resist any activity linked to the infamous UN Agenda 2030 and the WEF’s Great Reset; derail with all means we have at disposal the 4th Industrial Revolution’s digitization process, starting with undoing any advances that have been made with digital money, body-implanted chips – whose purpose it is to enslave humanity – and on a wider score to transhumanize humanity.

    We must stop this monstrous crime of biblical proportions NOW.

    In short, we should prepare for a massive Nuremberg 2.0.

    Without delay.

    See this Must-See 31-min video on THE PLAN with several links to related videos, including the one of the Grand Jury and its results – plus large-print easily understandable, down-to-earth text, explaining what we are living and how we can get out of it. See this.

    Here, some key quotes from the Stop World Control text:

    “The Tyranny is 100% dependent on the ignorance of the public. The solution is, therefore, to inform the people around us.”

    “Once People know what is really happening, they will stop complying and will start resisting.”

    “We offer you a powerful tool to open the eyes of your friends, family and community.”

    “High level experts from the WHO, United Nations, US & UK Military, British Secret Services, CDC, Pfizer and the UK Government reveal the evidence that the pandemic is used to install a world dictatorship.”

    “They presented their evidence to the world during Grand Jury proceedings with 11 international lawyers and a judge.”

    “The experts identify the powerful entities that are able to install this powerful dictatorship. They explain how they orchestrate and implement it, and what their ultimate agenda is for humanity.”

    “The supreme level of brainwashing is when an entire population calls human history a conspiracy theory.”

    “All this information is revealed in the Grand Jury Evidence.  You can download it here: StopWorldControl.com/jury

    “This powerful document can wake up the world. Please share it far and wide.”

    The Worldwide Corona Crisis, Global Coup d’Etat Against Humanity

    by Michel Chossudovsky

    Michel Chossudovsky reviews in detail how this insidious project “destroys people’s lives”. He provides a comprehensive analysis of everything you need to know about the “pandemic” — from the medical dimensions to the economic and social repercussions, political underpinnings, and mental and psychological impacts.

    “My objective as an author is to inform people worldwide and refute the official narrative which has been used as a justification to destabilize the economic and social fabric of entire countries, followed by the imposition of the “deadly” COVID-19 “vaccine”. This crisis affects humanity in its entirety: almost 8 billion people. We stand in solidarity with our fellow human beings and our children worldwide. Truth is a powerful instrument.”

    What do the inventor of mRNA technology; the lead author of the most downloaded paper on Covid-19 in the American Journal of Medicine; a former editor of the American Journal of Epidemiology; renowned epidemiologists at Harvard, Stanford, and Oxford; and France’s leading microbiologist – have in common? They have all been censored by a repressive media network that most people have never heard of. This network has outrageously conceived and conveyed a “monopoly of legitimate information.”[i] 

    Exposing this uncanny censorship of eminent voices is especially vital to the fate of children and youth, who are being aggressively targeted for low-benefit, sometimes lethal, inoculations.

    *

    Since early in the COVID-19 pandemic, which according to the World Health Organization kills only 0.23% of those infected[ii], enormous fear and panic have been fuelled by the hourly drumbeat of a “one-voice” media.

    An international process of editorial standardization has delivered unprecedented news coverage of the monopolized message:

    1. The pandemic threatens the survival of all humanity
    2. There is no therapy to cure the sick
    3. It is necessary to confine the whole population, and
    4. The delivery will come only from a vaccine.[iii]

    Many people have been dismayed by the singularity of this propaganda, and how it could possibly have been achieved.  That is the subject of this study.

    Introduction:  How the TNI Got Started

    On June 24, 2021, a report from the Oxford-based Reuters Institute revealed that trust in the US media – ranking last among 46 countries – had descended to an all-time low of 29%.  Meanwhile, Canadian trust in media has sunk to 45%.[iv]

    This downward spiral can only mean that people are going elsewhere for their news – a trend that has likely been accelerated by the emergence of a shadowy global censorship network called the Trusted News Initiative (TNI).

    In July 2019, before the pandemic, the UK and Canadian governments hosted the FCO Global Conference on Media Freedom,[v] where then BBC Director-General Tony Hall announced:

    “Last month I convened, behind closed doors, a Trusted News Summit at the BBC, which brought together global tech platforms and publishers. The goal was to arrive at a practical set of actions we can take together, right now, to tackle the rise of misinformation and bias….I’m determined that we use that [BBC] unique reach and trusted voice to lead the way – to create a global alliance for integrity in news. We’re ready to do even more to help promote freedom and democracy worldwide.”[vi]

    The initial Trusted News partners in attendance were the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), Facebook, Financial Times, First Draft, Google, The Hindu, and The Wall Street Journal.

    This was the embryonic start of a soon-to-become global media-wide Early Warning System that would rapidly alert members to “disinformation which threatens human life or disrupts democracy during elections.”[vii]

    Where did the idea come from?

    The BBC had earlier responded[viii] to a call for evidence from the House of Lords’ Select Committee on Democracy and Digital Technology, citing in its first footnote a June 3, 2019 BBC blog entitled “Tackling Misinformation.”[ix]

    The first point of that blog referred to a pre-pandemic March 3, 2019 BBC news report that anti-vaxxers were gaining traction on social media as part of a “fake news” movement spreading “misleading and dangerous information”.[x]

    The June 3 blog also claimed a “mammoth” online scale of deceitful business practices and hate speech as problems needing “algorithmic interventions”. The online “information ecosystem” was “polluted”; the size of the problem “unprecedented.”  The BBC and other organizations would be looking at interventions “to address misinformation across the media landscape”.

    Looking back at this perception of pre-Covid problems, the motives of the TNI network appear to have been constructive and reasonable.  However, there was no inkling at the time of how vast, repressive, and darkly persuasive these interventions were soon to become.

    *

    The action started. CBC/Radio-Canada publicly announced its participation in the TNI in September 2019, saying “this includes a commitment to collaborate on source authentication, civic information, media education, and other responses to disinformation.”[xi] The Hindu announced the Indian program simultaneously.[xii]

    Two weeks after WHO announced the Covid-19 pandemic on March 11, 2020, Canada’s CBC reported that the Trusted News Initiative had announced plans “to tackle harmful coronavirus disinformation.”

    “Starting today, partners in the Trusted News Initiative will alert each other to disinformation about coronavirus, including ‘imposter content’ purporting to come from trusted sources. Such content will be reviewed promptly to ensure that disinformation is not republished.” [xiii]

    The media partners had now expanded to include Twitter, Microsoft, Associated Press, Agence France-Presse, Reuters, and the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism.

    The TNI next agreed to engage with a new verification technology called Project Origin, led by a coalition of the BBC, CBC/Radio-Canada, Microsoft and The New York Times – with a mandate toidentify non-authorized news stories for suppression.

    In July, 2020, Eric Horvitz, Chief Scientific Officer for Microsoft, remarked about authorizing the news: “We’ve forged a close relationship with the BBC and other partners on Project Origin, aimed at methods and standards for end-to-end authentication of news and information.”[xiv]

    By December 2020, the BBC had reported that disinformation was “spreading online to millions of people,” and included minimizing COVID-19 risks along with impugning the vaccine developers’ motives.[xv]

    In a June 25, 2021 summary article by investigative staff, TrialSiteNews asked the question, “COVID-19 Censorship: Trusted News Initiative to Decide the Facts?” and began its reply with:

    “Since time immemorial, those with power have used it to control those without. In the modern world, big government and big tech represent the seats of power when it comes to who is allowed to say what. Of course, many think that “private companies” can regulate speech in any way they see fit. But from either an ethical or legal point of view, this is false. The argument from the societal benefits of free speech works equally for posting YouTube videos and handing out flyers on a corner.

    Legally, the [U.S.] Supreme Court has long held that when a private company creates something that functions as a public square (think of a company town), the First Amendment comes into play. Way back in April 2020, it was already clear that the then-existing online socio-political censorship was going to expand into the world of science, medicine, and academia in the new COVID-19 era.”[xvi]

    What is Disinformation?  

    This question has been sloppily handled by the mainstream media, which often confuses “misinformation” (unintentionally misleading information) with what they mean, “disinformation,” which is deliberate.

    Several dictionary definitions agree on that point:

    American Heritage: “Deliberately misleading information announced publicly or leaked by a government or especially by an intelligence agency in order to influence public opinion or the government in another nation.”[xvii]

    Merriam-Webster:  “False information deliberately and often covertly spread (as by the planting of rumors) in order to influence public opinion or obscure the truth.”[xviii]

    The OED (Oxford English Dictionary): “The dissemination of deliberately false information, esp. when supplied by a government or its agent to a foreign power or to the media, with the intention of influencing the policies or opinions of those who receive it.”[xix]

    Given that these definitions specify deliberate government action, it seems odd that the TNI has identified a scattered online public as the source of intentional false information and propaganda – especially concerning elections and health policy.

    What are the TNI’s Public Health Sources?  Are They Trustworthy? 

    The TNI reports Covid-19 health policy from the world’s major public health agencies, including the World Health Organization (WHO), the US Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the US National Institutes of Health (NIH).

    This policy is passed down through national and state governments, who convey it to the public via their media and websites, along with local case reports (based on the questionable PCR test) and deaths.

    Unfortunately, this top-down leadership has at best been illogical and inconsistent, and at worst corrupted by the vast profits of the vaccine industry.

    Examples of either incompetent or corrupt public health leadership include NIAID director Dr. Anthony Fauci’s extraordinary contradictions concerning the protection offered by masks.[xx]

    More astonishing is the fact that on July 21, 2021, the CDC quietly recalled the use of the WHO-supported PCR test, which since February 2020 has been the global standard for measuring Covid-19 case numbers.  This recall was eventually reported about a week later, yet it had appeared on the CDC website[xxi] the first day after the news that George Soros and Bill Gates had acquired the UK Covid test company, Mologic.[xxii]

    The PCR test had already had a checkered history:  Its recommendation had been very suddenly approved by WHO after being hurriedly rushed to publication in Eurosurveillance,[xxiii] one day after its submission date of January 22, 2020.  Incredibly, it lacked peer review – an irregularity that was formally challenged by 22 scientists seeking its retraction.[xxiv]

    Worse yet, this global PCR test, which amplifies fragments of live or dead virus found in nose swabs, shows many false positives (which are officially deemed “cases,” regardless of symptoms). A study conducted last year by the Infectious Diseases Society of America found that at 25 cycles of amplification, “up to 70% of patients remain positive in culture” tests.  Fine, but at 30 cycles culture verification dropped to 20%, and by 35 cycles, less than 3% of cultures remained positive.[xxv]

    Misleadingly, most European and US labs have been basing their frightening “case” numbers – published 24/7 through the TNI – on 35 cycles or higher.[xxvi]

    The most shocking – if not criminal – Covid leadership failure of all is that the WHO, NIH, CDC, and FDA have consistently denied the existence of the 85%-effective, cheap, safe and abundant early treatments for Covid-19.

    Their only recommended option until November 2020 – a month before the vaccines arrived – was to sicken at home until you couldn’t breathe;  then go the hospital. (In November the FDA and the NIH allowed anti-SARS-2 monoclonal antibody products for mild outpatient disease in high-risk patients – but nothing else.[xxvii])

    There was to be no government-sanctioned cure until a vaccine arrived.

    The obedient TNI – not into investigative journalism – followed suit.  In spite of extensive evidence supporting early treatment efficacy,[xxviii] and although 56 countries have adopted early treatments,[xxix] there have been no TNI-approved media statements that any early treatments, including hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), ivermectin (IVM), quercetin, zinc, budesonide, or Vitamins C and D, are effective in treating Covid-19 outpatients during the first 5-7 days of flu-like symptoms.

    The denial has been so strong that in early 2020 many US state pharmacy boards –in unprecedented disrespect for the authority of physicians – banned pharmacies from filling HCQ prescriptions to treat outpatient Covid-19.[xxx]

    In August 2020, it came to light that pre-licensure Emergency Use Authorizations (EUAs) for the mRNA vaccines could not be legally approved if there was an available alternative – that is, if the FDA had already issued an EUA for outpatient use of HCQ, as shown in the final item of this in-house FDA slide.[xxxi]

    Apart from early op-ed exposés by eminent Yale epidemiologist Dr. Harvey Risch,[xxxii] where was the investigative journalism?

    Who and What Have Been Most Censored by TNI’s Early Warning System?

    To support individual acts of censorship, the social media giants refer to the WHO, CDC, FDA, and NIH policies as their justification.  Discussions such as the source of the virus, early treatments, and vaccine adverse effects – if they originate outside of these agencies – are quickly suppressed by the coordinated TNI network.

    We will look at seven of these suppressions, in order of their first occurrence:

    Suppression #1:  The Source of SARS-2

    The Trusted News Initiative very quickly got to work silencing “disinformation” about a SARS-2 connection to the inadequate Wuhan levels 2 and 3 biosafety labs. However, since former NYT writer Nicholas Wade’s thorough investigation in May 2021,[xxxiii] and the FOIA dump of Dr. Fauci’s emails[xxxiv] in June, the TNI partners, including Facebook and Twitter, have given up censoring free speech about a Wuhan lab escape.

    Suppression #2:  Denial of Early Treatments for Covid: 

    As we have seen, the medical literature is full of peer-reviewed published studies showing both the prophylactic and early treatment efficacy of a range of safe, inexpensive, readily available drugs and substances.

    During the March-December 2020 period, these were claimed to be ineffective by government and the media in order to pave the way for FDA Emergency Use Authorizations for remdesivir (whose efficacy is now under question[xxxv]) and the mRNA vaccines.

    Scandalously, hundreds of thousands of people died while waiting for the vaccines to arrive in December 2020. Why did they die?  Because their doctors were blocked from prescribing the repurposed drugs HCQ and IVM that have long been on the WHO list of essential medicines.

    The TNI, by censoring the truth that the public so desperately needed, has been a primary enabler of this catastrophic, vaccine-friendly policy.

    During July 2021, instead of acknowledging the early treatment evidence they had housed[xxxvi] all along (thus being directly complicit in these deaths), the government-media complex doubled down on its intense campaign to vaccinate every one of us.

    Incredibly, on August 3, 2021, 16 months and 612,386 deaths too late, Anthony Fauci, in an excerpt supplied by TNI partner Reuters, “floats [a] pill to ‘knock out’ COVID early”, given once daily for seven to ten days.[xxxvii]

    Suppression #3:  The Voices of Dissenting Health Professionals

    While major health policy-makers such as WHO, CDC, FDA, and Anthony Fauci have careened from one unprecedented society-killing edict to the next, many eminent public health professionals at the tops of their fields have stepped forward to offer sane, traditional, contagion-control measures.

    However, they have not been welcome in the media or the social media. TNI Director Jessica Cecil explained why, at the Trust In News Conference,’ in April, 2021:

    “First, those pushing disinformation…are using apparently trustworthy sources. Anti-vax content often uses interviews with people who have medical degrees for instance.

    And there is frequently a grain of truth to what is claimed. That makes untangling the true from the false harder…”[xxxviii]

    In “untangling the true from the false”, untrained media personnel have censored the following prominent professors and researchers with outstanding publication histories[xxxix] and conflict-of-interest-free credentials. Each is linked to his or her Google Scholar publication record:

    The TNI has also vigorously censored frontline physicians who have saved thousands of lives with early Covid-19 treatments:  Dr. Zev Zelenko in New York,[xl] Drs. George Fareed and Brian Tyson in California;[xli] America’s Frontline Doctors,[xlii] founded by Dr. Simone Gold; and the Frontline COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FCCCA),[xliii] led by ICU/critical-care physician Dr. Pierre Kory.COVID Vaccine Nonsense

    A member of FCCCA, Dr. Joseph Varon, who is chief of staff at United Memorial Medical Center in Houston, has had more than 1,600 media interviews, yet he told local Fox reporter Ivory Hecker that reporters will never discuss his highly successful MATH+ hospital treatment protocol – “because the news producers will not allow it.”[xliv]

    Why not? Because his hospital-based protocol using cheap, safe, plentiful drugs such as methylprednisolone, fluvoxamine, thiamine, heparin, and ivermectin, combined with zinc, ascorbic acid, and vitamin D,[xlv] has yielded about half the inpatient death rate reported by the CDC.[xlvi]

    And that is not allowed by those who direct the media – those whose inferable mission is a vaccine policy based on millions of questionable PCR tests, followed by a vaccine passport that by all appearances is the endgame.

    Suppression #4: The Record Number of Serious Post-Vaccine Side Effects and Deaths

    Record post-vaccine side effects and deaths have been reported online by the US CDC VAERs (Vaccine Adverse Effects Reporting system), by the UK Yellow Card System, by the EU Vaccine Injury Reporting System, and by Israel.

    In the United States, VAERS reported 491,218 adverse effects and 11,405 deaths from February 10 until July 24, 2021.[xlvii]

    However, connecting these deaths directly to the vaccines is not straightforward.

    In England, Dr. Tess Lawrie of the Evidence-based Medicine Consultancy (EbMC), stated in June 2021 that there were “at least 3 urgent questions that need to be answered by the English equivalent to CDC, the MHRA:

    “How many people have died within 28 days of vaccination?

    How many people have been hospitalised within 28 days of vaccination?

    How many people have been disabled by the vaccination?”[xlviii]

    Also in June, Dr. Lawrie wrote a highly-referenced 11-page letter to the MHRA Chief Executive showing that “the MHRA now has more than enough evidence on the Yellow Card System to declare the COVID-19 vaccine unsafe for use in humans.”[xlix]

    Suppression #5:  Natural Immunity Stronger than Vaccinated Immunity

    Very simply put, the mRNA vaccines only generate antibodies against the single synthetic spike protein that they instruct the body first to make, and then to provide immunity against. But if the original wild SARS-2 spike mutates, the altered virus is less easily recognized by the immune system and often escapes its antibodies.

    Meanwhile, natural immunity, which has fought off the whole virus and remembers it through both antibody and T-cell immunity, is much more robust and effective – in spite of minor spike mutations.[l]

    Given this fact, the world’s governments and media should have allowed proof of immunity through tests such as T-Detect, which is authorized “for detecting and identifying the presence of an adaptive T-cell immune response to SARS-CoV-2”[li] – in lieu of being vaccinated, for those who preferred them.

    Instead, the confusing, superficially informed TNI has pushed only the highly profitable but increasingly failed experimental vaccines, which now, although they reduce risk in high-risk people, have “almost no value as a way of protecting others, so there is no benefit in vaccinating children, introducing vaccine passports domestically or internationally, or coercing young people to get a vaccine which to them is almost all risk and no benefit.”[lii]

    Suppression #6:  Worrying Evidence of Pathogenic Priming/ADE

    During early mRNA clinical trials, cats, ferrets, monkeys, and rabbits have experienced Antibody Dependent Enhancement (ADE), also known as pathogenic priming or a cytokine storm. This occurs when the immune system creates an overwhelming, uncontrolled inflammatory response upon being confronted with the virus in the real world, and then dies.

    The director of the Pathological Institute of the University of Heidelberg, Peter Schirmacher, has carried out over 40 autopsies on people who had died within two weeks of vaccination.  Schirmacher was alarmed to cite on August 3, 2021, “rare, severe side effects of the vaccination – such as cerebral vein thrombosis or autoimmune diseases”.[liii]

    On August 5, 2021, Israeli Dr. Kobi Haviv, at the Herzog Hospital in Jerusalem, reported that “95% of the severe patients are vaccinated…85-90% of the hospitalizations are in fully vaccinated people…We are opening more and more COVID wards…The effectiveness of the vaccine is waning/fading out.”[liv]

    Dr. Robert Malone, inventor of mRNA technology, has explained that the susceptibility to ADE is greatest precisely during the long phase in which the vaccine tapers off:  “The vaccine in its waning phase is causing the virus to replicate more efficiently than it would otherwise, which is called Antibody Dependent Enhancement,” adding that all previous coronavirus vaccine development programs led to ADE.[lv]

    It is essential that informed consent for Covid-19 vaccines include notification of the possibility of ADE, especially with regard to parents, whose children should be protected at all costs:

    “The specific and significant COVID-19 risk of ADE should have been and should be prominently and independently disclosed to research subjects currently in vaccine trials, as well as those being recruited for the trials and future patients after vaccine approval, in order to meet the medical ethics standard of patient comprehension for informed consent.”[lvi]

    How many people receiving mRNA vaccines have been told this?  Certainly their Trusted News Initiative has not told them.

    Suppression #7:  The Central Role of Co-Morbidities in Serious Covid Disease 

    Only 4% of Covid deaths in England died without pre-existing conditions.[lvii] In the US, 94.9% had pre-existing conditions.[lviii]

    How often has the pharma-backed media hinted that 78% of US Covid hospitalizations are overweight or obese? Or suggested that “hey folks, you might save your life by dieting”?[lix]

    How often have we been warned that 59% of hospital admissions are deficient in Vitamin D?[lx][lxi]

    Has the government-media complex ever mandated Vitamin D intake standards to take pressure off Intensive Care Units?

    Has Tony Fauci ever told people to take enough Vitamin D when – according to his FOIA’d emails – he takes 6,000 IUs a day himself?[lxii]

    Or would it have created insufficient fear to drive people to unguaranteed experimental vaccines for the TNI to let us know?

    Conclusion: The Media and Democracy 

    A primary motive behind the formation of the TNI may have been to eradicate the so-called “disinformation” that an insulted, indignant public prefers to the creatively irrelevant corporate-led media, aka “the presstitute”.

    It’s not as if the media has a track record of being right about pandemics. For example, it trusted worst-case scenario modeler Neil Ferguson and the pharma-controlled World Health Organization over the 2009 swine flu “pandemic”– which fizzled out leaving governments to incinerate millions of dollars in vaccines.[lxiii]

    Such industry achievements use “influencers” – falsely independent “experts”, including specialist journalists, think tank facilitators, and academics whose research is funded by industry or government.

    Regarding Covid-19, Dr. Piers Robinson, co-director of the Organisation for Propaganda Studies, has judged, “It wouldn’t be an underestimation to say that this is probably one of the biggest propaganda operations that we have seen in history,” concluding “what happens is down to how people resist and how much force and coercion the authorities use.”[lxiv]

    Indeed, the very foundation of democracy is that public wisdom should be consulted and given its head in self-rule. The public has the constitutional right to full information to form and express its own conclusions and does not need a coordinated TNI to corral and contain it.

    It is utterly outrageous that the voices the public needs from the top public health figures at its best universities are being denied to its hearing.

    A far superior job of investigative reporting is being done by the hard-working alternative media researchers without Big Pharma’s blood-stained advertising dollars.

    Perhaps the TrialSiteNews staff has said it best:

    “We think that disallowing good-faith medical information because the public can’t be presumed to properly weigh claims is infantilizing said public, along with dismantling the free speech culture that perhaps peaked in the 20th Century. The efforts now underway to completely suppress positive data associated with early-onset treatment prospects such as ivermectin or the squelching of any discussion of vaccine safety issues is completely unacceptable in a civilized, democratic market-based society. Those perpetuating such offenses are in fact on the wrong side of history.”[lxv]

    ABSTRACT

    Background The infection fatality rate (IFR) of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) varies widely according to age and residence status.

    Purpose Estimate the IFR of COVID-19 in community-dwelling elderly populations and other age groups from seroprevalence studies. Study protocol: https://osf.io/47cgb.

    Data Sources Seroprevalence studies done in 2020 and identified by any of four existing systematic reviews.

    Study Selection SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence studies with ≥1000 participants aged ≥70 years that presented seroprevalence in elderly people; aimed to generate samples reflecting the general population; and whose location had available data on cumulative COVID-19 deaths in elderly (primary cutoff ≥70 years; ≥65 or ≥60 also eligible).

    Data Extraction We extracted the most fully adjusted (if unavailable, unadjusted) seroprevalence estimates and sampling procedure details. We also extracted age- and residence-stratified cumulative COVID-19 deaths (until 1 week after the seroprevalence sampling midpoint) from official reports, and population statistics, to calculate IFRs corrected for unmeasured antibody types. Sample size-weighted IFRs were estimated for countries with multiple estimates. Secondary analyses examined data on younger age strata from the same studies.

    Data Synthesis Twenty-three seroprevalence surveys representing 14 countries were included. Across all countries, the median IFR in community-dwelling elderly and elderly overall was 2.4% (range 0.3%-7.2%) and 5.5% (range 0.3%-12.1%). IFR was higher with larger proportions of people >85 years. Younger age strata had low IFR values (median 0.0027%, 0.014%, 0.031%, 0.082%, 0.27%, and 0.59%, at 0-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, and 60-69 years).

    Limitations Biases in seroprevalence and mortality data.

    Conclusions The IFR of COVID-19 in community-dwelling elderly people is lower than previously reported. Very low IFRs were confirmed in the youngest populations.
