New data from the biotechnology firm Regeneron seem likely to add to the excitement about drugs called monoclonal antibodies as treatments for Covid-19, but experts caution more data will be needed to know how potentially beneficial the medicines are.

In the early morning of Jun. 30, 1908, a massive explosion flattened entire forests in a remote region of Eastern Siberia along the Tunguska River. Curiously, the explosion left no crater, creating a mystery that has puzzled scientists ever since — what could have caused such a huge blast without leaving any remnants of itself?

The world is now threatened with a Green Depression. Or it will be if governments — including Canada’s — go ahead with variants of a “Green New Deal” in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis.

One of the great leftist perversions of history is the claim that, in the 1930s, FDR’s New Deal “saved capitalism from itself.”

The Covid Lockdown is a practice run for the big one – the Carbon Lockdown. If climate alarmists win the elections, our freedoms and prosperity will evaporate like CO2 from a warm beer.

A new United Nations report on the Human Cost of Disasters has been described as “an embarrassment” and “a catalog of errors” after it emerged its headline claim of a “staggering rise in climate-related disasters” was refuted by its own data.

The head of President Donald Trump’s “Operation Warp Speed” says the ultimate goal is to vaccinate the entire population of the United States by 2021. There is also going to be a push to propagandize this vaccine and “educate” the public into compliance.

You may not have heard, but on August 23, a guy named Harvey Risch made some shocking accusations against Anthony Fauci.

Of course, that by itself doesn’t say much since a lot of people have accused Anthony Fauci of a lot of things since he stepped into the spotlight as the de facto leader of America’s response to COVID-19.

C.S. Lewis: “I dread government in the name of science. That is how tyrannies come in.”

Former President Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1961: “We must also be alert to the equal and opposite danger that public policy could itself become the captive of a scientific-technological elite.”

The Covid-19 pandemic has stretched the bond between the public and the scientific profession as never before.

Scientists have been revealed to be neither omniscient demigods whose opinions automatically outweigh all political disagreement, nor unscrupulous fraudsters pursuing a political agenda under a cloak of impartiality.

Appearances can be deceptive. As in life, as in literature. Pauline Chakmakjian’s fascinating new book cleverly employs the uncomplicated literary idiom of the fable to reveal how science and technology is cunningly deployed against us by the state.

The Sphinxing Rabbit: Her Sovereign Majesty is no less a sobering premonition than George’s Orwell’s Animal Farm when you understand just how relatable the story is to our current trials and tribulations, including the coronavirus pandemic.

On September 11^th, the British Medical Journal ran an article about the government’s Operation Moonshot; their plan to test millions of people daily by 2021.

Not so long ago, we were all getting ready to freeze. In 1971, the Global Ecology network forecast the “continued rapid cooling of the Earth; in 1975 The New York Times brooded that the Earth “may be headed for another ice age,” as did Newsweek; in the March 1, 1975 issue of Science News.

Here is an update to my previous article, with additional quotes from our anonymous retired government scientist:

“I have alerted folk to the blurring of the distinction between admissions proper and inpatients showing up as positive cases if they happen to be tested during their stay. What I am going to do in this simple slide is nail the point home by calculating the ratio of inpatient COVID-19 cases to COVID-19 admissions proper for the period March – September.

In recent months an effort to unleash a green transformation of the global order has taken the form of the “Green New Deal” promoted by many of the same financial interests from London and Wall Street which did much to bring civilization to the brink of a new financial blowout which will make 1929 look like a cake walk.

A lasting side-effect of Covid-19 is the universal growth of state power. Despite global death rates peaking last April and immunity building even without a vaccine, authoritarian leaders are clinging to their recently acquired powers.

No doubt they view individual freedom as an optional extra not an inalienable right and want their new powers to become a normal part of governing. The Victorian government is legislating to that effect.
