Zika
Or: How to cover-up man-made disease.
One evening about a week ago I got a text message from a friend:
What do you know about Zika virus – I smell a rat
He’s fully awake, so his rat smelling faculties are fully operational.
He was watching some animal documentary with his daughter, and it was “teaching” them about how mosquitoes in South America were causing small heads in babies (microcephaly).
I get these sorts of questions nowadays as the resident virus/vaccine rabbit hole wanderer and “expert”.
I vaguely remembered it mentioned in The Real Anthony Fauci, but couldn’t remember the specifics, I replied:
Not much but yes, it’s a rat
I also vaguely remembered something mentioned about Zika in Maready’s wonderful book Crooked.
So, I went and dug up a few things that are now the basis of this stack.
The Zika story took the world by storm in 2016. That alone is now cause for suspicion, it certainly is for me today, but it wasn’t back then. As a Sleepwalker in 2016 I just assumed that if it’s on the news it must be true or “true enough”. But as you will see, the truth is a very different story.
First let’s watch Zika 101 and 201 by Maready. You’ll get the picture in a few minutes.
Zika 101- The Missing Medical School Lectures
Zika 201- The CDC Report
By now you can both smell and see the rat.
First, let’s look at the transcript of a vodcast that Maready did, in 2017 I think (it is no longer online), from his series My Incredible Opinion.
My Incredible Opinion – Episode 86
Zika Mystery Solved: It Was Bad Maths
Zika. I have to talk about this. I can't let it go by without saying something, because evidently, we have a huge counting problem. You can't make this stuff up. You will remember that there were a large number of babies born with neurological problems, specifically microcephaly and Guillain-Barré Syndrome, in Northeastern Brazil in 2015.
This was quickly attributed to Zika, a fairly rare mosquito born disease that had struck that same year. Scientists and public health officials all over the world, sounded the alarm. They lost their minds. It made the Swine Flu scare look tame. Do you remember all the scare?
People who'd trained their whole lives to compete dropped out of the Brazil Olympics for fear of catching the disease. Women were avoiding getting pregnant. They were spraying Florida and possibly other parts of the U.S. with highly toxic pesticides. Dr. Peter Hotez, Dean of Medicine and Neglected Tropical Lab coats at Baylor School of Medicine suggested we bring back DDT to combat the problem.
Do you remember all that? Do you remember the riveting article the CDC penned in the New England Journal of Medicine making a case for why Zika was causing all of these birth defects? This was a very serious paper saying Zika was causing all the birth defects in Brazil, and laid out clearly why they were sure of it. I've saved this article because I’m guessing it's going to disappear from their website sometime in the near future. Big news outlets ran with the story - it was everywhere.
"This study removes any doubt that Zika Virus causes birth defects."
Articles like that were everywhere.
If you've paid any attention to the Zika story, you'll know that the birth defects didn't follow Zika infections like they said would happen.
The virus did spread, into America even, but the birth defects didn't materialize like they thought would happen. In fact, even in Northeastern Brazil, the epicenter of the original problem, they seemed to have disappeared there as well. Even the World Health Organization or WHO, disbanded their Defcon Level 5 Zika Emergency Response team (not because it's any less of a threat according to them). It took a while for health officials, but they've finally started to admit they were wrong. So what happened? What do they propose caused this epic mistake?
We finally have some answers from the Brazilian Ministry of Health and some new guy at the WHO who inherited this complete mess. They wrote a letter to the Editor at the New England Journal of Medicine because after a thorough study of this multi-billion-dollar problem, they figured it out. What was it, according to this cadre of some of the world's best health officials? They miscounted. I [bleep] you not. That's what the article says. We miscounted the Zika infections. We OVER counted them. All of those thousands of mothers who had babies born with birth defects were misdiagnosed, because it was definitely not Zika.
They say the Zika infections may have in fact been Dengue virus, but then admit Dengue isn't known to cause Guillain-Barré Syndrome. So that probably wasn't it. They say the Zika infections may have been Chikungunya virus, which IS thought to cause Guillain-Barré but not microcephaly. They admit all of this in the article, they say it wasn't Zika, it was something else, but the two other viruses we think it might have been - one of them doesn't trigger Guillain-Barre and the other doesn't trigger microcephaly. They're basically saying, all those mothers that were diagnosed with Zika and had babies with birth defects probably didn't actually have Zika, but something else. And whatever that something else was, they don't seem to cause microcephaly either. But that's the best we can come up with.
Interestingly, in Puerto Rico, there is a similar battle, but they have the opposite answer. The CDC stopped reporting on Zika affected pregnancies in Puerto Rico because they felt they weren't counting ENOUGH of them. They were skipping too many of them. And so now you see articles coming out saying Puerto Rico has a big Zika problem, but because Zika infections are largely asymptomatic in everyone, they've missed thousands and thousands of women pregnant with Zika.
The Puerto Rican health department and the CDC can't agree on the diagnostic criteria for Zika, so the CDC just said we're going to ignore your numbers then. Anyone remember Polio? That was 60, 70 years ago, and we had the same problem. No one could readily identify what polio was. Once the vaccine came out, the criteria for paralytic polio changed and it gave the vaccine the appearance of instant success. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
Right now, in the United States of America, in the year 2017, we cannot readily identify when someone is infected with a disease. They get these flu diagnoses wrong all the time. Especially when you got the flu shot. That means you instantly get diagnosed with something other than what the vaccine was intended to protect. Anyway, think about this: Brazil just came out with an article saying they OVER-diagnosed their population with Zika and that's why there haven't been as many birth defects this year. The United States CDC is saying Puerto Rico is UNDER-diagnosing its cases, and that's why there haven't been as many birth defects. Think about that. This is why you should have a problem with these people setting health policies that affect your family.
Again, remember Toby Rogers framing Pharma Junk Science, this is it:
Then there is Pharma junk science that is characterized by:
• financial conflicts of interest,
• manipulated study design,
• captured regulators,
• deviations from protocol,
• small sample sizes,
• short observation periods,
• bad record keeping,
• data manipulation,
• inappropriate statistical analysis,
• drawing sweeping conclusion from weak data,
• suppression or censorship of data that does not fit a predetermined narrative,
• bullying, gaslighting, and blacklisting of scientists who ask hard questions.Knowing the difference between actual science and Pharma junk science is a matter of life and death these days.
The FDA and CDC do NOT engage in actual science. Everything they do is Pharma junk science. Those who fail to understand this fundamental truth are not going to make it.
There are at least two important things to note here: 1) They seem to have zero curiosity about where all these birth defects came from. The article focuses on explaining why their predictions were off. How Zika may have been something else and THAT might explain why the birth defects did not spike like they said they would. As for that huge spike in birth defects in Northeastern Brazil? Eh... Who cares. Maybe it was a deadly combination of diseases! Something that would require a bi-valent or tri-valent vaccine! Yeah, that's the ticket. The Zika vaccine's not going to be enough to stop it. It's going to take even more than we thought!
“Zero curiosity” in other non-virus causes IS malfeasance.
You cannot find what you are not looking for. That is wilful ignorance. That is malfeasance.
Maintaining plausible deniability IS malfeasance.
It is corruption.
It is literally impossible for public health officials to consider that the problem may have been manmade. Could it have been the herbicides they were dousing the water supplies with? They won't even consider it. Could it have been something to do with the genetically modified mosquitoes? Ridiculous to suggest that. Could it have been a hot lot, a bad batch, a crummy collection of TDaP vaccines that Brazil had recently administered to combat a Whooping Cough outbreak? Well we definitely wouldn't want to take a look there, would we? I thought we distributed those lots over a wide geographic area so those localized problems wouldn't show up. Didn't we all decide that would be best? No?
Anyway, why can't they take a look at a possible cause that doesn't involve a vaccine to the rescue? It really blows my mind - there's an invisible wall around their brains that prevents them from even thinking about it. It couldn't possibly be a man-made problem, unless somehow global warming could be linked.
2) The second thing I want you to think about. What else are these guys counting? Don't they do statistical modeling and all sorts of other mathematical voodoo for a living? Don't they figure out how many people in the entire continent of Africa have AIDS just by testing a tiny percentage of pregnant women?
They act like all of their data is unquestionably valid. It's just numbers. 600 children die under five die every day from Measles. Give or take 500. Have you seen that number the WHO and everyone else bandies about? Is that number more accurate than their Zika numbers? Or is it worse? They have a vaccine for that one, so you can imagine their lack of bias is especially acute on Measles statistics.
The next time you read an article, press release or study that comes from a government health agency or any main stream publication, I hope you'll do two things. Take a look at the numbers they list in those articles. Question them. Find out where they get those statistics from. I'm guessing they are about as accurate as their Zika numbers. Secondly, if they're at a loss to explain why something is happening but there isn't a single mention of a man-made problem anywhere in sight (besides global warming), you can guarantee they're avoiding an inconvenient truth. And that is my incredible opinion.
Next let’s see what Kennedy Jr. and his researchers had to say about Zika in 2021.
The Real Anthony Fauci
2016 Zika
In March of 2016, Dr. Fauci again misled the public—this time into believing that the Zika virus was causing an epidemic of microcephaly among newborn babies in Brazil. One thing we know for sure: Zika doesn’t cause microcephaly. Dr. Fauci had to have learned this. Zika was endemic to Central America and much of South Asia for many generations with no reported association with microcephaly. Dr. Fauci’s critics claimed that an experimental DPT vaccine administered to pregnant women in 2015–2016 in the slums of northeast Brazil was the likely culprit for the wave of microcephaly. Extensive use of highly toxic pesticides in that corner of the nation may have also contributed.
One of the things I learnt from Duesberg is that viruses are a wonderful cover for all manner of industry sins. They are, very often, a most useful patsy.
HIV was the patsy blamed for what was initially immune deficiency caused by poppers (Amyl Nitrate).
That same HIV patsy took the blame for all the side effects of the chemotherapy “solution”, AZT.
But all of that is another story for another day.
The moral of the story is the industrial use of viruses as patsies to blame and rugs to brush man-made problems under (pick your metaphor).
They accused Dr. Fauci of pointing the finger at Zika to distract attention from the more likely culprits, and to extract billions of dollars from Congress to develop yet another chimeric vaccine. The servile media, fattening on pharma advertising, delighting in the frightening epidemic that yielded children with tiny heads and great big ratings for the networks, obligingly heaped fuel onto Dr. Fauci’s Zika terror crusade. Fear drives viewership. As CNN Technical Director Charlie Chester explained to industry analysts during the COVID-19 crisis, “COVID? Gangbusters with ratings, right? Which is why we have the death toll on the side.”
Here is another classic part of the industrial model. The crisis creates its own funding.
If you want large amounts of funding, you need large amounts of crisis.
Dr. Fauci announced that he was pulling funds from malaria, influenza, and tuberculosis research programs in order to fund “a series of four or five vaccines” to rescue America from Zika. By fanning the flames of pandemic panic, Dr. Fauci, buttressed by his partner Bill Gates, requested an additional nearly $2 billion congressional appropriation to NIAID to develop a Zika vaccine. That money swelled his agency’s Zika budget to about $2 billion and enriched his Pharmaceutical partners. Dr. Fauci funneled $125 million to a new Cambridge, Massachusetts, startup then called Moderna Therapeutics, to develop an mRNA vaccine for Zika. Gates appeared on CNBC to tout Moderna and promote its efforts to deliver a Zika jab. He put $18 million into a project with the Wellcome Trust to fund a US-owned company, Oxitec, headquartered near Oxford University in the UK, to release millions of genetically modified mosquitoes in Brazil and the communities to exterminate the mosquito species blamed for spreading Zika. This was a follow-up to an even slightly more sinister 2008 Gates-funded study by Professor Hiroyuki Matsuoka at Jichi Medical University in Japan to engineer mosquitoes that can act as “flying syringes” to inject malaria vaccine into people—both the willing and the unwilling. In 2021, Gates would expand on this macabre project by investing $25 million in an effort to genetically modify mosquitoes to stealthily deliver coronavirus vaccine to the vaccine-hesitant. I’m not joking.
Let’s pause and catch our breath here for a moment.
Fauci, Gates, Moderna and mRNA…where have we heard all these names before?
These people and the capital and institutions they represent, the “despicable they” as a friend calls them, have been at it individually and collectively for a very long time. They have cut their teeth on ever bigger and bigger “projects” with Covid being their crowning glory.
As for the Wellcome Trust, this was seeded by Burroughs Wellcome, that played a prominent role, dating back to the 70s, in the AIDS story. They made the poppers that were the origin story of the problem, and then made AZT that was the “solution”. Here is but one passage from Inventing the AIDS Virus:
David Barry structured the entire study from beginning to end. He tapped Burroughs Wellcome's informal network of scientific collaborators, selecting twelve medical centers around the country for participation. By providing $10,000 per study patient to each clinic involved, he induced a whopping fifty-one researchers to jump on board, a group heavily weighted with old virus-hunting peers of Barry'S. Just having that many well-connected medical scientists helped swing the political balance in his favor, and it locked in their own loyalties to AZT. Even Michael Gottlieb, who reported the first five AIDS cases, joined in. There was hardly a medical institution left in the country that was not involved and that could have offered an independent second opinion. Barry chose Margaret Fischl, a virologist at the University of Miami, to head the experiment.
Thus, Burroughs Wellcome not only coauthored (Drucker, Nusinoff-Lehrman, Segreti, Rogers, Barry), but also paid for the licensing study of its own product. But nobody seemed to mind this blatant conflict of interest-not the many non-Burroughs Wellcome researchers on the study; not the NIH, which cosponsored the study; not the FDA; not the editor of the New England Journal of Medicine, which published the study.
The moral of the story is that these people and the grid they have created have been perfecting this “industrial model” for a very long time, it’s just that I, and many others, have just woken up to it.
The feverish predictions of a microcephaly scourge in Brazil soon fizzled. World Health Organization spokesman Christopher Dye told NPR that while “we apparently saw a lot of cases of Zika virus in 2016, there was no microcephaly.” Peaking at a high of about 5,200 cases in 2016, the United States has recorded a total of about 550 Zika cases since then, with roughly 80 percent of those occurring in 2017, with no reported microcephaly. The disease never spread beyond Florida and Texas, and no cases of Zika-associated microcephaly ever materialized.
Undaunted, Dr. Fauci warned that the disease “will come again” to the United States and that the country “absolutely [has] to be prepared” for it.
In 2019, health officials reported only 15 cases of Zika in the United States, all of them microcephaly-free. The Mayo Clinic, meanwhile, reported in December that, despite Dr. Fauci’s $2 billion expenditure, there is no functional vaccine for the disease. By 2020, Dr. Fauci could no longer credibly blame the microcephaly epidemic on Zika, and he stopped talking about his vaccine. In June 2020, Dr. Fauci, under questioning before Congress, sheepishly explained, “It was never brought to full fruition because Zika disappeared.”
This was Kennedy Jr. writing about Zika in 2021.
But Forrest Maready wrote about it in 2018 towards the end of his book Crooked. Here is the section.
Crooked
Zika
In the fall of 2015, troubling reports began to surface in the Northeastern sections of Brazil. Doctors were seeing an increase in the number of babies born with undersized heads, a phenomenon called microcephaly. As the months passed, it became clear that something had happened — there was a massive spike in the number of microcephaly cases, an absolutely heartbreaking thing to see on the news. Besides the obvious physical deformity, babies born in this condition would likely suffer neurological delays and learning disabilities. Health officials frantically searched for answers as to why this was happening. Despite locals pointing to the recent release of genetically modified mosquitoes or the aggressive pesticide spraying they had been recently subjected to, the authorities were sure they had found the cause. It was a relatively unknown illness that had recently been introduced into the country – a microbe transmitted by mosquito bite called the Zika virus.
A year or so earlier, the World Health Organization had botched its response to the Ebola outbreak in Africa, and amidst rumors of its increasing irrelevance in a modern world of nimble, efficient charities like the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, it would use its response to the Zika crisis as a show of force and relevancy. With all hands on deck, the WHO’s response was indeed massive. Government agencies from around the world were involved. There were outlandish requests for research and funding. Continual press conferences and media blitzes put the threat of Zika onto the front page of nearly every news outlet and television broadcast in the world. Billions of dollars of funding were being mobilized to understand this disaster and develop vaccines to prevent it.
Zika was a new threat, particularly to pregnant women, the authorities repeated over and over. Apparently even their sexual partners could transmit the virus to them and harm their fetus. Athletes, who had trained their entire lives to compete in the 2016 Summer Olympics, pulled out of competition rather than risk harming their future offspring. Health authorities as far away as the United States began dropping pesticides over large cities — with chemicals that were known to cause birth defects themselves — in an attempt to control the outbreak. Scientific papers and press releases were rushed into publication: “CDC Concludes Zika Causes Microcephaly and Other Birth Defects.” It was possibly the most widespread, expensive, pro-active response to a pathogenic threat since polio.
Except there was problem — Brazil and other countries with active Zika infections continued into 2016, but the cases of microcephaly did not.
The dire predictions of health officials, understandably frazzled by the hysterical response from the WHO, did not come to pass. The birth defects returned to their previous levels. Microcephaly and other anomalies were now being actively monitored — every infant head carefully measured — throughout most of South America and beyond.
Despite the hyper vigilance of the medical community and Zika infections continuing to happen, even amongst pregnant women, the birth defects were decreasing. Zika infections were still occurring, and the science was clear — Zika infections caused microcephaly. Even some of the media, which breathlessly relayed every dire warning and bullet-point from the WHO, began asking the question — what happened? “Why Didn’t Zika Cause A Surge In Microcephaly in 2016?” an NPR reporter asked a few health officials, including Christopher Dye, an obviously uncomfortable Ebola Team Lead from the World Health Organization.
Dye suggests that perhaps they had vastly miscounted the number of actual Zika infections in Brazil, mistaking them for another virus called chikungunya, an answer the plucky reporter was obviously not impressed with. “Now for this theory to hold true,” she responded, “we're talking about thousands of Zika cases being mistaken for a totally different virus that's not even closely related to Zika. Could this really happen?”
No, it could not have happened. But I think I know what did happen, and the answer only recently became clear to me as the mechanisms by which metals and microbes harm fell into place.
I had watched the Zika story closely ever since it broke, trying to make sense of what had happened. The massive WHO response baffled me until I realized they were covering for their Ebola missteps. But the problem was horrifying — Zika infections seemed to be growing and health officials were understandably concerned.
As I poured through the science surrounding Zika research, two papers stood out. First, the virus has an affinity for neural stem cells. Neural stem cells are important to the development of not just the brain, but the entire central nervous system, possibly even the peripheral nervous system, as they can “self-renew” and form into the many different specialized cells required for its function.
Secondly, the virus had apparently mutated in some form to cause a more infectious strain sometime before a small 2013 outbreak in French Polynesia. A more infectious strain might provide a cause for the recent Zika outbreaks, as it apparently made its way into the Americas around 2014. The research I found might explain why there were more Zika infections, and they might explain how Zika might cause neurological development problems, but they didn’t explain the sudden spike in 2015, nor the sudden disappearance in 2016.
I was at a dead end — until I remembered the 2014 technical report that had been issued nationwide by the Brazilian Health Department’s Immunization Division. In October 2014, Brazilian health officials issued a new decree — Pertussis, also known as Whooping Cough, was shaping up to be a big problem, and they were recommending the shot be given for all pregnant women. But there was an ominous part of the bulletin that should have concerned any physician reading it — for any woman not vaccinated previously for pertussis, the bulletin recommended:
“Administer the first two doses of dT and the last dose of dTpa between the 27th and preferably up to the 36th week of gestation.”
They were recommending pregnant women receive up to three doses of this shot, containing up to .4 mg of aluminum each. The doctors, it would appear, took the memo seriously. PBS Frontline did an interview with several mothers in Brazil whose babies had developed microcephaly:
”Ederlanha, an 18-year-old mother of a child recently diagnosed with microcephaly, is inclined to believe vaccines may be the problem. She says she never had symptoms of Zika, but she did receive a shot from her public health clinic every month of her pregnancy. As she waited for an appointment at the public hospital in Recife, she tried to soothe her fussing baby, but said she couldn’t recall exactly what the shots were for.”
We can only hope she didn’t actually receive a vaccine every month of her pregnancy, but from the unease of other mothers around this time and area, you can tell there were a lot of them. She also doesn’t recall having anything resembling a Zika infection at all, not surprising given the innocuous nature of the virus.
Knowing that most of these 2015 microcephaly cases appeared in a specific region of Brazil, amongst some of the poorest mothers in that area, one could see how their vaccination status might fall into the “unknown” category. It’s also not hard to imagine a recently inspired doctor wanting to be extra-sure the poor mother’s baby wouldn’t have to suffer a Pertussis infection and erring on the “safe” side by administering a three-shot course of injections — just in case. Hopefully the 18-year old Ederlanha’s memory is faulty and they stopped at three.
What do I think happened? I believe that Zika had recently surfaced in a very particular area — northeastern Brazil in 2014. It was relatively unknown to South America until this time. In the other areas of the world with previous infections, Zika had been an innocuous virus that wasn’t associated with microcephaly. It was a new disease vector, and was fanning out just like you might expect any other infection to spread. Zika turns out to be a peculiar infection because it does appear to cause inflammation in the fetal brain — something the maternal and fetal immune system apparently can cope with under normal circumstances — as evidenced by a lack of birth defects associated with Zika more often than not.
It has been argued that vaccines have not been adequately safety tested on pregnant women. Even if they were, we can be sure the safety tests would not have permitted administering 3 or more doses during one pregnancy. The 2014 Brazilian memo came at the worst possible time for some. It was a national roll-out and there were undoubtedly mothers across the country that received multiple doses of the TDaP vaccine during their pregnancy. The outcomes of those pregnancies is unknown.
But for a very unlucky group of women — those who received multiple injections of aluminum and got a Zika infection at the same time, the outcome was not going to be good. From what we know about the infection, it is likely to have created inflammation in the neural stem cells of the fetal brain. Again — with a properly functioning immune system, most babies could evidently make it through unscathed. However, with their white blood cells flush with aluminum, it’s unsurprising that when these poor children’s immune systems asked for help, they received a neurotoxic response.
The technical memo is now gone from the Brazilian Health Department’s site — it has completely disappeared and I had to use special tools to find an archived version. There is no reference to this program or any recommendations that I can find regarding pregnant women and this vaccine. And in a final note of irony, I realized the memo was released in October 2014. Exactly ten months later, in August of 2015, the first cases of microcephaly began to appear. It would seem that Zika, without the aluminum injections, is an innocuous disease. Apparently, the Brazilian health officials who have removed all references to this health memo would agree, even if they don’t fully understand what happened.
And here is something on Naled, the pesticide they sprayed over South Florida.
Fighting A Zika Monster: Why The Aedes Aegypti Mosquito Is So Hard To Control | WLRN
Federal Judge Dismisses Request To Stop Spraying Pesticide Naled In Miami-Dade County | WLRN
So, they’ve been spraying this over the population. Let’s see what their own Fact Sheet says about it:
Naled General Fact Sheet (orst.edu)
What are some signs and symptoms from a brief exposure to naled?
Naled is moderately toxic if eaten, gets on the skin, or breathed in. In addition, naled is severely irritating if a person gets it in their eyes or on skin.3 It is considered corrosive and direct contact could lead to permanent damage.
After rats breathed low doses of naled for four hours, they experienced diarrhea. Another group of rats breathing moderate doses of naled experienced decreased activity, body tremors, diarrhea, and difficulty walking.6 Similar to other organophosphates, overexposure from direct inhalation could lead to tightness in the chest, wheezing, cough, increased saliva, runny nose, blurred vision, tearing, and headache.
After spills or other direct skin exposures, symptoms may include itching, redness, rash, and irritation.
Rats fed low doses of naled experienced diarrhea, tremors, salivation, increased urination, and decreased activity. Symptoms reported after human exposures to organophosphates like naled included headache, nausea, dizziness, and sweating, as well as increased saliva, tearing, and runny nose. If a person has a large exposure, severe naled poisonings could include feeling lightheaded, slurred speech, muscle twitching, irregular heartbeat, convulsions, paralysis, coma, and death.
Children may exhibit different common symptoms to organophosphates that adults. Muscle weakness, salivation, constricted pupils, seizures, lethargy, and coma were found more often in children than adults.
Let’s just say that their own Fact Sheet does NOT inspire confidence.
And lastly this wonderful passage for a recent piece by Toby Rogers:
But in order for Meds to keep generating outsized rates of return, the industry needs a growing supply of inputs — in this case, sick people. The vaccine program is perfect for generating new customers. It creates a huge pool of chronically ill patients for life.
It’s a hard pill to swallow, but “sick people as the engine of economic growth” seems to be the new model.

I went on a Forest Maraedy YouTube binge a month or so ago. The guy made too much sense. And what's crazy is he was saying it all before Covid. The thing that drove me to want to read more of that anti-vaxxers had to say is the fact they are still pushing Covid vaccines on kids. I kind of presumed at some point down the anti-vax rabbit hole I'd reach a moment of sanity where clearly the anti-vaxxers were missing something, or were jumping the gun, but more and more it looks like the vaccine proponents have been skating by on appeals to authority and counting on the stigma they have created by smearing so many who have raised fair concerns. I read RFK Jr but haven't read this inveting the aids virus book. that may need to make it on my list.
