China’s pandemic continues, more than 1.5 million deaths estimated

The pandemic continued in Beijing and the death toll has increased sharply. Videos circulating on the internet showed a long line of vehicles transporting dead bodies to a crematorium in Beijing, but China’s Health Commission reported there were no new deaths after December 7. In addition, there are rumors that Beijing plans to send unvaccinated elderly people to field hospitals for treatment to address the shortage of medical resources.

According to NTD, on December 16, the Chinese media Caixin reported that two senior journalists of the People’s Daily newspaper died in Beijing after being infected with COVID-19, at the age of 74. 

Although they died of COVID-19, the cause of death on the death certificate was pneumonia. (Photo)

The journal Nature Medicine estimates that within six months, China could trigger a new pandemic “tsunami.” As many as 112 million people will be infected, 2.7 million people will be admitted to the ICU, and 1.55 million people will die. Peak ICU demand will reach 1 million beds, more than 15.6 times the current capacity.

According to Sound of Hope, Zhang Fanghua (pen name), a Beijing resident, said that Beijing has released a large number of people from field hospitals and plans to use them for the unvaccinated elderly, just like Xiaotangshan hospital did during the SARS outbreak in Beijing in 2003.

She said that a person working at Xiaotangshan hospital told her, “Patients are provided with a bottle of mineral water every day, and buns or bread, not as good as you imagine. It’s not like that at all … You suffer on your own, you can come back if you are alive. Otherwise, you will get in the car (meaning will be a corpse). If you want to run away, maybe you will be beaten to death. These days, no one cares about you. It’s really terrible! Nationwide, 40% of the elderly are vaccinated, and 60% are not. So 60% of the elderly who are not vaccinated will be taken there.” (Recording)

On December 15, China’s National Medical and Health Commission issued a “Work plan to strengthen the control of the COVID-19 pandemic and health services in rural areas.” The commission proposes speeding up vaccinations in rural areas, especially the elderly, increasing the stock of ventilators and medicine in rural areas, and avoiding contact with the elderly. There are about 500 million people in rural China and there are about 17,000 county-level hospitals that are severely short of beds.

Zhang Wenhong, director of the Department of Infectious Diseases at Fudan University’s Huashan Hospital in Shanghai, recently predicted that ​it will take three to six months to overcome the pandemic, according to Sohu.

Tang Jingyuan, a political commentator, said: “The Chinese government has invested a large amount of health insurance funds including paying trillions of dollars to implement the ‘zero-COVID’ policy for three years, embarking on nationwide nucleic acid tests, building field hospitals everywhere, and hiring a large number of people to do quarantine work, implementing lockdowns and investigations. The but high quality vaccines and good drugs that are needed to fight the pandemic, including ICUs and ventilators, are in low supply. This is one of the most fundamental reasons leading to overcrowding and a lack of medical resources. This responsibility must certainly belong to the Chinese government.” (Recording 2)

Pfizer vaccine less effective against India variant of SARS-CoV-2

Credit: Biontech SE

June 4, 2021

By Nuala Moran

LONDON – A new U.K. study indicates the Pfizer Inc./Biontech SE COVID-19 vaccine is less effective against the India variant of the SARS-CoV-2 virus that was designated as of global concern by the World Health Organization (WHO) on May 10.

Blood samples taken from healthy volunteers at different time points after receiving one or two doses of the Pfizer vaccine had lower levels of neutralizing antibodies against the India variant than against the Kent and South Africa variants of concern.

In people who were fully vaccinated with two doses of the Pfizer vaccine, titers of neutralizing antibodies against the India variant were 5.8-fold lower than against the original Wuhan virus against which the Pfizer vaccine was designed.

That compares to a 2.6-fold reduction vs. wild type for the Kent variant, and 4.9-fold for the variant originally identified in South Africa.

The antibody response against the India variant was even lower after a single dose, with only 32% of serum samples showing a quantifiable neutralizing antibody response, compared to 79% for the wild type.

Levels of neutralizing antibodies were lower with increasing age and levels decline over time, suggesting that third, booster doses of vaccine will be needed later in the year.

The samples in the study came from 250 health care workers and staff at University College London and its associated hospital who have been making regular blood donations.

In total, 308 samples from different time points were tested with a new high-throughput viral neutralization assay developed at the Francis Crick Institute, London. The times ranged from 23 days after a first dose to 37 days after a second.

The high-throughput assay allowed serum to be tested against live samples of each virus variant in a single experiment, enabling direct comparison of neutralizing antibody titers.

The study, reported in The Lancet, relates only to Pfizer’s vaccine, but the researchers are now doing the same assessment for Astrazeneca plc’s COVID-19 vaccine.

Decline over time

A further study in a subgroup of 14 participants who donated blood between eight and 12 weeks after their second dose of the Pfizer vaccine also showed significantly reduced neutralizing antibody activity against all variants of concern. For 12 of those individuals, the reaction was high enough to block 50% of virus infection, but for two participants activity against the India and South Africa variants dropped below 40%.

The researchers said their findings raise the question of whether the U.K. should maintain its policy of administering two vaccine doses 12 weeks apart. That was shown to be the correct strategy at the start of the vaccination rollout, providing some level of protection to as many people as possible when vaccine supplies were limited.

With the data showing that after a single dose of vaccine neutralizing antibodies against the India and South Africa variants are below the quantitative limit of detection, extended dosing intervals may no longer be appropriate.

The India variant has now replaced its Kent counterpart as the dominant cause of infection in the U.K. Despite relatively high levels of vaccine coverage, with 50% of the adult population having received two doses and 75% one dose, the number of infections has started to rise again, and some experts saying this could be the start of a third wave.

The seven-day average was 3,853 cases per day in the week up to June 2; on June 3, 5,274 cases were reported; on June 4, 6,238. The number of PCR-confirmed cases per day is still low compared to the height of the second wave in March this year, but the India variant is showing signs of being more transmissible than the Kent variant.

There also has been an increase in hospital admissions in areas of the country where case levels are higher.

Taken together, the neutralizing antibody levels and the epidemiological data raise the possibility that the India variant presents a dual challenge of reduced vaccine efficiency and greater transmissibility. “It remains difficult to assess precisely to what extent the reduction in [neutralizing antibody titers] we observe will impact vaccine efficacy and increase disease severity in a vaccinated population, especially given the multiple factors that contribute to this process, such as long live humoral immunity,” the researchers said.

A single dose still provides more protection than no vaccination, but will give relatively less protection against the India variant. “The benefits of delaying the second dose must now be weighed against decreased efficacy in the short term, in the context of the spread of the India variant,” said the researchers.

The most important thing will be to ensure vaccine protection remains high enough to keep as many people out of the hospital as possible, said Emma Wall, consultant in infectious diseases, who is clinical lead for the study.

“Our results suggest the best way to do this is to quickly deliver second doses and provide boosters to those whose immunity may not be high enough against these new variants,” Wall said.

What’s in a name?

In other news, WHO has come up with a new naming system for key variants of SARS-CoV-2 that it said are easier to say and remember, using the Greek alphabet.

The Kent variant has become Alpha, South Africa is Beta, the Brazil variant Gamma and the Indian variant Delta. The labels do not replace the existing scientific names, such a B.1.1.7 for the Kent variant, which convey important scientific information.

But WHO said these scientific names can be difficult to say and recall. As a result, the default is to refer to variants by the places where they are first detected. That is “stigmatizing and discriminatory,” WHO said.

It may take time for the nomenclature to shift. The default since WHO announced the new names has been to use all three alternatives: B1.1.7, the Kent variant, now known as Alpha.

Unsustainable: UN Agenda For World Domination ~ Full Documentary

UN Agenda 21 in under 5 minutes

Sinister in nature criminal in intent.

With its historical roots in the 1934 Technocratic Movement and later Non-Governmental Organisations such as the 1973 Trilateral Commission and New International Economic Order (NIEO), Agenda 21 is a non-binding action plan of the United Nations with regard to sustainable development.

Silent weapons

Through the United Nations, globalists are attempting to finalize their war against man, property rights, gun rights, and capitalism to usher in a Marxist World Order. One of their weapons is Agenda 21, a dark agenda for the 21st Century. It shoots situations propelled by technology and propaganda instead of bullets.

2020

Considered a conspiracy ‘theory’ by mainstream media and other apologists of globalization, the flagship term for Agenda 21 – ‘sustainable development’, appears in thousands of federal, state and local government laws, regulations, policies and documents.
The UN says ‘sustainable development’ is simply the ‘Environmental Movement’ reconfiguring the planet into a safe, green world. Others maintain it’s the forced inventory and control of all land, water, minerals, plants, animals, building projects and human beings on the planet; a blueprint for what is morphing into a totalitarian world government right before our eyes.

United States ~ National Security ~ Pentagon ~ A.I. READINESS ~ DIA ~ DOD

The panel of scientists, business leaders and national security officials — chaired by former Google CEO Eric Schmidt — called on the national security community to ensure it is “AI-ready” by 2025.

The document takes a broad look at DIA’s needs, but sheds a particular light on the urgency to grow the agency’s AI talent base, Menon said during a media briefing at the Department of Defense Intelligence Information System Conference in San Antonio, Texas.

Coming soon: DIA’s new strategy for AI readiness

https://www.c4isrnet.com/artificial-intelligence/2022/12/15/coming-soon-dias-new-strategy-for-ai-readiness/

SAN ANTONIO — The Defense Intelligence Agency is on track to release an artificial intelligence strategy in the coming weeks that will focus on attracting and developing a strong workforce.

Ramesh Menon, DIA’s chief technology officer, told reporters Dec. 14 the strategy is awaiting approval from the agency’s director and should be released “very shortly.”

The document takes a broad look at DIA’s needs, but sheds a particular light on the urgency to grow the agency’s AI talent base, Menon said during a media briefing at the Department of Defense Intelligence Information System Conference in San Antonio, Texas.

Although we looked at it from different pillars, the most important one is talent and skills,” he said. “How do we attract the best and brightest [and] retain them in the intelligence community to enhance our mission capabilities?”

The strategy, which Menon and his team developed over the last year, comes in the wake of a 2021 report from the congressionally mandated National Security Commission on Artificial Intelligence, which argued the U.S. Department of Defense and the intelligence community are not prepared to protect against AI threats or harness the technology to improve national security.

The panel of scientists, business leaders and national security officials — chaired by former Google CEO Eric Schmidt — called on the national security community to ensure it is “AI-ready” by 2025.

“AI integration is hard in any sector — and the national security arena poses some unique challenges,” the report said. “Nevertheless, committed leaders can drive change. We need those leaders in the Pentagon and across the federal government to build the technical infrastructure and connect ideas and experimentation to new concepts and operations.”

Menon said that at a “very high level,” DIA’s forthcoming AI document is its plan for implementing the commission’s recommendation.

On the workforce front, the agency is looking to increase its investment in junior talent in hopes that it will draw more new recruits, according to DIA Deputy Chief Information Officer E.P. Mathew. Although that approach could mean the agency loses some trained personnel to higher paying jobs, the hope is that it would load the front end of DIA’s training program.

We would love to be that pipeline or that training hub where people do come and recruit from us,” he said during the briefing.

DIA also wants to increase its collaboration with other DoD and intelligence agencies that can share lab space and expertise, Mathew said.

Along with its emphasis on workforce development, Menon said the strategy highlights the need to strengthen DIA’s data platforms and ensure its AI algorithms and processes are compliant with national policies. It also calls for deeper partnerships with international allies.

“We are working in collaboration with our partners, and we are expanding the value of data that we currently have to ensure we get that global overwatch advantage in terms of our mission,” he said.

The agency had declined to disclose the winning contractor. The value of the deal is classified.

The Pentagon Is Experimenting With Using Artificial Intelligence To “See Days In Advance”

The Pentagon aims to use cutting-edge cloud networks and artificial intelligence systems to anticipate adversaries’ moves before they make them. 

BY BRETT TINGLEY

U.S. Northern Command (NORTHCOM) recently conducted a series of tests known as the Global Information Dominance Experiments, or GIDE, which combined global sensor networks, artificial intelligence (AI) systems, and cloud computing resources in an attempt to “achieve information dominance” and “decision-making superiority.” According to NORTHCOM leadership, the AI and machine learning tools tested in the experiments could someday offer the Pentagon a robust “ability to see days in advance,” meaning it could predict the future with some reliability based on evaluating patterns, anomalies, and trends in massive data sets. While the concept sounds like something out of Minority Report, the commander of NORTHCOM says this capability is already enabled by tools readily available to the Pentagon. 

General Glen VanHerck, Commander of NORTHCOM and North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD), told reportersat the Pentagon this week that this was the third test of GIDE, conducted in conjunction with all 11 combatant commands“collaborating in the same information space using the same exact capabilities.” The experiment largely centered around contested logistics and information advantage, two cornerstones of the new warfighting paradigm recently proposed by the Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. A full transcript of VanHerck’s press briefing is available online.

Declassified NZ Defence Force Reports: Chemtrails Linked to Outbreak of Illnesses

Posted on 04/01/2020 by EraOfLight

Among a recently-released assortment of declassified reports of sightings of Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) from New Zealand, dating from 1952-2009, were letters written in 1999 and 2000 by a concerned citizen, who predicted that an outbreak of illnesses would occur after an “aircraft contrail,” otherwise known as a ‘chemtrail’, was seen over a populated area.

Chemtrails, which are also commonly referred to as aerosols, differ from aircraft vapour trails in that they often linger in the sky for hours and can be seen in grid-like patterns, in parallel lines (see above) or forming ‘X’s in the sky.

World Map News EraOfLight.com

While seeing a chemtrail does not constitute proof that the illnesses were caused by it, it is worth examining the issue, given all the evidence which shows that chemtrails are making people sick, and in light of what is known about their composition.

Evidence collected for over a decade reveals that chemtrails are used for at least seven functions, including weather control and military applications, and are comprised of a wide variety of harmful ingredients.

They commonly include aluminium and barium, which are toxic to both humans and to the environment.

They may include radioactive thorium, desiccated red blood cells, dangerous pathogens, including Mycoplasma Fermentens Incognitus, plus mold spores, ethylene dibromide, and self-replicating nanotubes that cause Morgellon’s disease, which according to researcher Clifford Carnicom’s findings, now contaminate virtually everyone.

The declassified reports, which are online under the heading: Original Files: NZ’s UFO Sightings, were posted at a major New Zealand news site, Stuff.co.nz on December the 22nd, 2010, and were released to the public by the New Zealand Defence Force under the Official Information Act.

Buried among the total of 2,101 declassified documents, are letters, news clippings, and pages from magazine articles, which reveal that a private individual, whose name has been removed from the correspondence for privacy reasons, repeatedly tried to raise the alarm about the dangers of chemtrails in 1999 and early-2000.

It appears that initially the correspondent, who will be referred to as ‘Mr Gibson,’ wrote to Warren Kyd, the member of the New Zealand parliament for Hunua.

In his letter, which was dated May the 25th, 1999, he wrote that the trail he had seen was sprayed in a huge arc over Auckland and while one agency had advised him only a military aircraft could engage in that kind of activity, Air Traffic Control said it had come from a passenger plane en route to Fiji.

This is not unlikely, as passenger planes have been seen spraying chemtrails in New Zealand, and elsewhere in the world.

Mr Gibson also referred the MP to an article from the April, 1999 edition of Nexus magazine.

This article, by Canadian journalist William Thomas, titled Contrails’: Poison From The Sky, (and since renamed Chemtrails’: Poison From The Sky on the Nexus website), mentioned that in areas where these trails had been seen lingering, an emergency room had become ‘inundated with flu-like cases,’ and doctors and nurses were complaining of ‘being extremely busy with respiratory diagnoses.’

Thomas further wrote:

‘In England, after lingering contrails and cobweb-like fallout were reported over London and Birmingham, the BBC reported on January 14, 1999 that more than 8,000 people – mostly elderly-died from pneumonia and other respiratory complications in the last week of December and the first two weeks of January 1999.’

In light of reports like these, Mr Gibson advised in his letter:

‘If this plane was releasing something into our atmosphere and it causes like these magazines, [sic] suggests, a vast many people in Auckland will suffer from a Flu like sickness.’

A newspaper article, which is in Book 1 on page 37 in the files, and published ten days after the chemtrail was spotted over Auckland, revealed that a ‘sudden surge’ in ailments had occurred.

‘The hospital emergency department has been very busy in the past few days with patients suffering respiratory-related disorders, including pneumonia and asthmas,’ reported the NZ Herald on June the 3rd, 1999. (See below).

In addition, a subsequent article in the NZ Herald, dated July the 6th, 1999 and titled: ‘Death Rate Soars In Flu ‘Plague,” noted that about 100 people died at Auckland’s Middlemore Hospital in June ‘mainly from respiratory illnesses.’

In spite of Mr Gibson’s prediction appearing to have been correct and supported by overseas reports, the government brushed his concerns aside.

‘Inquiries have been made and Mr Kyd has been assured that there is no cause for you to be alarmed,’ Kyd’s Executive Secretary, Faith Sarten advised in a letter dated June the 21st, 1999.

Not satisfied with the response, Mr Gibson went to see Mr Kyd and on his advice subsequently wrote to the New Zealand Minister of Defence, the Hon. Mark Burton on February, the 9th, 2000.

A reply from Hon. Burton can not be found in the file, merely an acknowledgement of receipt of Mr Gibson’s correspondence.

More than a decade later and the New Zealand Government, which has by now received a multitude of letters, e-mails and phone calls from concerned citizens, is still not responding to their concerns regarding what evidence shows is occurring on a far larger scale.

For example, when I e-mailed 112 of the 122 members of Parliament on September the 10th, 2010 for a Chemtrail Mass Action, and asked them to help to stop this poisoning of our atmosphere from continuing, the most considered of a handful of replies received was that from the Executive Assistant to Catherine Delahunty, the toxics spokesperson for the NZ Green Party.

It stated: “I can see your great concern about ‘chemtrails.’ However, the Greens have to prioritise their toxics work to known chemicals (and even then, are limited in what we can focus on).”
