Where are all the bigfoot skeletons?
Bigfeet engage in ritual cannibalism as part of their funeral ceremonies. The resulting prion diseases are one of the reasons there are so few left in the wild.
I saw a video about it on youtube, so I know it’s true. The feds are just covering it up.

Wonder if Bernie knows.Peru and Brazil have Marxist governments? Maybe you should write them and tell them that, because they don't know.
Nor does the CIA --

Florida still killin' it!! IFR .00016367, 7-day average as of 8/8/21 where cases increased by 11k from the previous weeks 7 day average but the IFR was bout the same at .00011572. You case hyping whores are looking pretty slutty right now.
Please take a moment and watch this Documentary Trailer about, "Searching for Sugarman. If you ahve money, buy the whole Doc. Rodriquez is my new favorite human. This Doc will blow you away and help you change from the inside. I have a ways to go, just so you all know

SHOCKER!!!
I'll get to the UK in a minute. But first:
Last week I shared with you something I received from a listener in Iceland. It was looking as if Iceland, one of the world's most heavily vaccinated countries, might retreat into the cycle of lockdowns and restrictions of 2020.
It's not impossible that that could still happen.
But there was an interesting development over the weekend.
As Iceland had a day whose U.S. equivalent would have been 100,000 new cases, state epidemiologist Þórólfur Guðnason is now throwing up his hands.
He says he is disappointed that vaccination has not brought about herd immunity, and that the only approach now is to protect vulnerable groups and allow the virus to move through society.
"We really can not do anything else," he says.
"We need to try to vaccinate and better protect those who are vulnerable, but let us tolerate the infection," he adds. "We need to somehow navigate this way, and we are now in this, not to get too many serious illnesses so that the hospital system does not collapse, but still try to achieve this herd immunity by letting the virus somehow run."
In the UK, scientists are now voicing a similar pessimism about herd immunity brought about by vaccines.
According to The Telegraph, "The delta variant has wrecked any chance of herd immunity, a panel of experts including the head of the Oxford vaccine team said as they called for an end to mass testing so Britain can start to live with Covid.
"Scientists," the paper continued, "said it was time to accept that there was no way of stopping the virus spreading through the entire population, and monitoring people with mild symptoms was no longer helpful.
"Prof. Andrew Pollard, who led the Oxford vaccine team, said it was clear that the delta variant can infect people who have been vaccinated, which made herd immunity impossible to reach even with high vaccine uptake."
"We don't have anything that will stop transmission," said Pollard, "so I think we are in a situation where herd immunity is not a possibility and I suspect the virus will throw up a new variant that is even better at infecting vaccinated individuals."
Moreover, says the Telegraph, "Public Health England has shown that when vaccinated people catch the virus they have a similar viral load to unvaccinatedindividuals and may be as infectious."
Paul Hunter, professor of medicine at the University of East Anglia and an expert in infectious diseases, added further that the obsession with "cases" needed to be abandoned: "We need to start moving away from just reporting infections, or just reporting positive cases admitted to hospital, to actually start reporting the number of people who are ill because of Covid. Otherwise we are going to be frightening ourselves with very high numbers that actually don't translate into disease burden."
What this means for government policy remains to be seen. But since the worst of the totalitarianism has occurred under regimes seeking "zero COVID," and these scientists appear to believe such a thing is ridiculous, maybe it's good news.— Tom Woods

COVID-19 Is Probably 99% Survivable for Most Age Groups, but PolitiFact Rated This False
The suggestion that a person can't make any reasonable guesses about his own likelihood of survival is misleading.
ROBBY SOAVE | 8.9.2021 12:22 PM
A viral Instagram post claimed that COVID-19 is 99 percent survivable for most age groups—the elderly being an important exception. The post cited projections from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), but was flagged as misinformation by the social media site and rated "false" by the Poynter Institute's PolitiFact.
That's a curious verdict, since the underlying claim is likely true. While estimates of COVID-19's infection fatality rate (IFR) range from study to study, the expert consensus does indeed place the death rate at below 1 percent for most age groups.
PolitiFact is correct that the CDC's September 2020 modeling projections should not be used to calculate the IFR. The post also erred in comparing the vaccine efficacy rate of 94 percent to the COVID-19 survivability rate. This is an apples and oranges comparison; it does not mean that the average person's natural immune response is better at fighting the disease than the vaccines. At present, the overwhelming majority of hospitalized COVID-19 patients are unvaccinated. Since the beginning of the year, 98 percent of COVID-19 deaths in Virginia were among the unvaccinated. The vaccines are not in competition with the body's natural immune system—they render COVID-19 even more mild, and even more survivable.
To the extent the post is implying that most people have no use for the vaccine, it is indeed a piece of misinformation. But PolitiFact went much further, rating as false the very idea that COVID-19 has a low IFR for most people.
"Experts say a person cannot determine their own chances at surviving COVID-19 by looking at national statistics, because the data doesn't take into account the person's own risks and COVID-19 deaths are believed to be undercounted," wrote PolitiFact. "Survival rate data is not yet available from the CDC. We rate this claim False."
Deaths are probably undercounted, but so are asymptomatic cases where the infected person's experience with the disease is so mild that they don't bother to get tested (which would decrease the IFR). The national case fatality rate, which includes deaths among the hard-hit elderly population, is currently 1.7 percent, according to CDC data. (PolitiFact did not immediately respond to a request for comment.)
Moreover, the suggestion that a person can't make any reasonable guesses about his own likelihood of surviving COVID-19 given his age group and health status is misleading. Just 300 Americans under the age of 18 have died from COVID-19. Young people can and should infer that they have a high degree of natural immunity against a severe coronavirus health outcome. Policy makers can and should use this information productively: i.e., by reopening schools this fall with minimum restrictions in place.
It often seems like the mainstream media reporters, federal health experts, and policy makers who form Team Blue are so concerned about people taking the pandemic insufficiently seriously that they resort to needless fearmongering. For another example of this, see a recent New York Times headline about long COVID-19 titled "This Is Really Scary," which makes the as-of-yet completely unsupported claim that even mild infections are causing very serious "mental, physical, and neurological symptoms" in "many" children.
The vast, vast majority of healthy nonelderly people who contract COVID-19 will survive the illness. They should further improve their odds—and reduce their likelihood of infecting anyone else—by getting vaccinated, because even a low percentage of deaths can still mean a great many deaths, in absolute terms, if the infection rate is spiraling out of control. But we don't need to live in fear, ignorant of the plain reality that the infection fatality rate is, in all likelihood, somewhere in the under–1 percent range for most age groups.

Their fatality rate has been trending down since early summer. I'm sure some will argue the lag between cases and deaths..

Water is the best thing anyone can drink during these tough times, fyi
How they cheat is of interest to me personally. They decide before the election to cheat, rule #1. Secondly, they build a line of credit of Phantom voters. When their getting their asses kicked, they pull out the Phantom Line of Credit. BTW, did anyone see the Marine Col. video on cheating? He say's, Who cheated, When they cheated, Why they cheated, Where they cheated and WHO they cheated with. This was a Military Sting OP folks. Please, can we as adults stop buying and cheating are way to the top?
Stop lying, Stop stealing kids freedom to make a political stance and Stop cheating and Stop pay to play games!!!
