Techrights at 34k
We’re made it!

I didn’t think we’d get here, but here we are. The “over 9,000″ jokes seem like only yesterday (I can still recall the IRC conversation about exceeding 9,000 blog posts) and since then, one grand (1,000) at the time, we kept climbing higher.

We have a large trove of material left to publish, but we’re pacing it down somewhat so as to not overwhelm readers. It’s strategic, too.

This past week we worked on developing a new CMS (a very simple one, but also very lightweight). We can’t wait to take it live. It’s probably safe to say that Techrights will still be around a decade from now; if the World Wide Web perishes, we still have IRC, IPFS, Gemini, and daily plain-text bulletins that can be dispatched in all sorts of ways. In a way, we’ve already secured our future.

This post will be the 33,999th one. Next up is the “real” 34k.

Only 3% of COVID-19 Hospital Admission in England Are Under 18s, 0.02% of Deaths Are Toddlers

From the latest available NHS data:

The 3 percent

Something to keep in mind now that patent profiteers try to convince us that all we’re missing is babies, toddlers, and kids receiving products that are barely tested (proper clinical trials can take a decade if not longer). Risk of coronavirus death and risk of side effects disproportional here.

Deaths:

Almost negligent number

BillBC: COVID-19 is Everywhere Now

We’re not defeating COVID-19 but surrendering to COVID-19

COVID-19 everywhere

They’re selling more and more shots (overpriced, patented), not striving to actually contain the virus.

‘Placebo Boosters’ Won’t Be Enough to Curtail This Summer’s COVID-19 Spike

Oh look! MOAR SALES!

A notice from NHS

The boosters  BS

FOOTBALL is back in a few weeks (envision all those packed stadiums with working class “superspreaders”), Borisnaro is going to leave (without any accountability or any fines whatsoever), and today’s COVID-19 numbers, which shockingly enough have been relegated to a weekly release (it was daily only a few months ago), reveal a grim outlook. We’ll all see them and I shall show them here later today…

Notice what the coronavirus portal is boasting about instead of a return to daily data disclosures:

We have added visualisations for spring booster vaccinations in England for people aged 75 and over. Visualisations can be found on the Vaccinations page for England and regions and local authorities in England.

Vaccination uptake for England, shown for people aged 75 and over and 5-year age groups above 75, has been added. These are calculated for population surveillance purposes using the current living population on the NIMS system. All data are displayed by date of vaccination.

Well, “spring booster” is used here mostly as a euphemism for placebo. Research (extensively carried out at the end last year; I wrote about it back then) has shown that a fourth — or fifth, sixth etc. — jab has no real advantage. Endless repetition is “insanity” … “hoping for better outcomes” (to paraphrase). Maybe it gives people more confidence, which in turn puts them at greater risk of getting infected/re-infected. They get a false sense of safety. I saw that with my mother, who had received a fourth dose and not only got infected; she then got re-infected (after a fourth shot). She thinks she’s invulnerable, so she exposes itself; and repeatedly ends up in bed for a couple of days. She thinks this is freedom.

The above figure (added by the NHS) isn’t for the public but for the greedy, for-profit AstraZeneca, which broke its promise, just like Bill Gates had done (he profits from the patent monopolies on work funded by the British public). They just keep selling and selling. They fail to actually improve their “product”. They want us to think that giving jabs to toddlers and babies (very extremely low mortality rate) would help; we already know people who got these vaccines are still highly infectious. It’s common knowledge, not an open secret.

A friend has just reminded me that these boosters are about 25 euros per person per dose. So we’re talking about around 100 euros per citizen (production costs are in the cents!). It’s graft, it’s theft, as those people actually paid for the research and development. Now all this capital flows, due to patents, into the bank accounts of Bill Gates and his class. And it barely solves the issue.

Data is late to arrive this Friday. More to come soon. Still waiting…

COVID-19: We’re Back to Wintertime Crisis Levels (and It’s Only July)

Despite testing at lowest levels; In summertime we get back to wintertime levels

April to July: Highest since April 12th

Notice the pace or the rate of increase so far this month. From the above:

04-07-2022	1,911 <- Highest since April 12th
03-07-2022	1,795
02-07-2022	1,374
01-07-2022	1,326

This summer has thus far been worse than summer of 2020 and summer of 2021. More deaths, more people in hospital, not just far more cases (despite little testing). Testing levels are lowest in 2 years. No wonder Borisnaro provokes and shifts attention to Ukraine. Did “bodies pile up high” in his illegal parties?

A Year of Re-infections

Over a million recorded re-infections of COVID-19 in England now. For the UK we’re at about 1.2 million, primarily this year.

UK reinfections

Hospitalisations grew sixfold (compared to the same period last year), so re-infections doe not imply something being relatively benign.

UK COVID-19 Patients in July 2022 Six Times More Than in July 2021 and Three Times More Than in July 2020

This is already days behind (the numbers have grown since):

10,000 in patients summertime

10,000+ in patients summertime. By now it’s probably 11,000+. Let’s compare to past years:

COVID-19 patients count 2022

COVID-19 patients count 2021

COVID-19 patients count 2020
