By Jerry PDX Monday, August 30, 2021 at 3:14:00 P.M. EDT According to Berenson, it was this tweet that got him banned: The last tweet he posted, meanwhile, accurately noted that the vaccine “doesn’t stop infection. Or transmission.”
“Don’t think of it as a vaccine,” he added. “Think of it - at best - as a therapeutic with a limited window of efficacy and terrible side effect profile that must be dosed IN ADVANCE OF ILLNESS.”
“And we want to mandate it? Insanity.”
“This was the tweet that did it. Entirely accurate. I can’t wait to hear what a jury will make of this,” wrote Berenson on his substack blog, Unreported Truths.
Funny thing is, Rochelle Walensky, as NSU readers know, said something very similar on cnn (here it is, again):

But does the CDC director tweet? Yes, she does:
https://twitter.com/CDCDirector?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor&form=MY01SV&OCID=MY01SV
However, while she is very much a vaccine proponent, if you read down through her tweets, amongst the “rah-rah-we-should-all-get-vaxxed” stuff, she actually refers to some of the realities and limitations of the vaccine, which reflect very similarly to what Mr. Berenson tweeted.
I don’t understand why somebody who has attained some public attention doesn’t follow the latest CDC announcements. If Mr. Berenson had, he could have included a link to the CDC video and some screen shots of some of her other press releases. I think it would have been much more difficult for twitter to justify suspending him if he had.
Normal clinical trial period for any vaccine is five years. This vaxx rushed through at Warp Speed. And is not a normal vaxx. Just builds your immune system.
ReplyDeleteTrue enough,with the CDC suggestion,but maybe Berenson was in a tempestuous mood.

ReplyDeleteIt's astounding that the Twitter censors are so ignorant of Covid vaccine facts, but not surprising or uncommon. What Mr. Berenson tweeted is not in dispute. If there is one point of contention though, it would be exactly "how" infectious are vaxxed compared to non vaxxed. If you go to the CDC website, there is a page that states you are 90% less likely to transmit the virus if vaxxed, then on the CDC NOW section they have a statement that states you "may" still be infectious, even if vaccinated. However, the CDC NOW page was last updated a month before the CNN interview with Director Walensky and the other pages has been up since last year so they may be updated with new information at some point. The Director mentioned in one statement the CDC was still gathering data as more and more people are vaccinated and it appears that data is more and more showing that the vaccinated are much more infectious than they previously thought.
The CDC Director stated they are measuring similar viral loads for the Delta variant in the throats and tongues of vaxxed and non vaxxed. She didn't directly say that makes them equally infectious but since the virus is passed on through respiratory processes, then how could the vaxxed possibly be any less infectious?
In any case, while there may still be some ambiguity in CDC public statements about the degree of infectiousness, it's clear that being vaccinated does not keep you from being infected and being infectious, which is what Mr. Berenson was saying.

ReplyDeleteChristhian Rivera has been convicted of the murder of Mollie Tibbets: https://www.mercurynews.com/2021/08/30/man-gets-life-sentence-for-murdering-mollie-tibbetts/
That's the good news, the bad news is that he got a life sentence instead of death, though I don't think the state he was tried in has the death sentence. Now the taxpayers are on the hook caring for this illegal POS the rest of his life and paying the tab for endless appeals filed by lawyers hoping to get him off in order to make a name for themselves.

ReplyDeleteEd Asner dies at 91, proof that the good don't all die young: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/ed-asner-dies-age-91-tv-legend-won-7-emmys/
Asner was an early extremist that helped shape liberalism it into the insane "Woke" model of today. I'll always have fond memories of him as Lou Grant in the great MTM show, but the damage the likes of him caused to White America and the cause of true freedom is unforgivable.
