It seems like people want to take the middle road. They're afraid of being discarded for taking a stance that is not popular. It's like they don't want to be a denier, and so they say "I don't deny that it exists, in fact I think I had it, but it wasn't what we're told it was" it's so much easier to follow the herd. BTW is it looks like I liked my own comment, that's not what happened... https://substack.com/@xrenee0/note/c-51734059?r=paf6o
How many people would have tested daily and been desperate to be positive if they’d had to pay upfront for those tests, plus had they not got a single penny for being off work for just a positive test.
The government opened the mighty taxpayers treasure chest and millions enjoyed looting it, now those same people are moaning their arses off because of the inflation it caused devaluing the currency to pay them to sit at home.
There’s millions who worked through are also have to stump up more taxes thanks to greedy dumb idiots.
Two weeks in I was vocal in that it was all a load of bollocks to some at work who didn’t lose their minds, they didn’t abandon their family members and still mixed as normal.
The media hysteria did not match a single thing I witnessed at work and from speaking to customers.
We did have coworkers who screamed a hissy fit at anyone who didn’t have a mask on, these are the same ones who didn’t want the silly screen to come down either.
They showed how manipulation and coercion can soften the brain to mush without a single original thought.
Thank you for your continued quest to make sense of the past 4 years Jonathan. I have many hospital doctor friends and observed in 2020 that they too seemed under some psychogenic effect. A comment one of them used in Spring 2020 which still troubles me was “we had many patients we were sure had Covid from their signs & symptoms but we COULDN’T *GET* THEM TO TEST POSITIVE”. To me it seemed they were predisposed to confirm the narrative.
In August 2020 another medic friend commented that the Covid ward had emptied out - “all but 5 remained and 2 of those were attempted suicides”. I asked why suicide patients were in a Covid ward she replied it was “Covid related”.
None of my doctor friends want to discuss or contemplate the possibility of a hysterical overreaction however.
Some people possess a penchant for exaggerating any illness, thus a bad cold became 'Covid'. As it was, the entire 'pandemic' narrative was an excellent example of Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds (a book that I finally got round to reading during the Summer of 2020).
Did you hear about the prisoner sentenced to death. He chose to bleed to death.
They rigged a bucket to drip water and pretended it was his blood. He died on cue as if he had bled to death.
Then the tribal death spell of pointing the bone in Australia original, for a terrible crime. The offender would sicken and begin to die.
I think CANCER is a nocebo. The diagnosis and doctor led prognosis of time left, works a spell. Then for good measure and incentive to die - add treatments that cause immense suffering.
Great work but how can we be sure that the "strawberries with sugar" incident is not a cover up. It does sound exactly the sort of thing rich people make up to cover their criminal negligence.
The power of suggestion. Heck, a s out there as it sounds I wouldn't be surprised if the elite are doing black magic to make people ill... if we have learned anything over the last 4 years, these people are capable of anything.

Tom Jefferson writes about the effect of stress on the presentation of flu cases. It's hard to imagine that fear mongering didn't have a significant effect. https://trusttheevidence.substack.com/p/we-are-going-to-northern-ireland
Covid & Nicebo Effect? Early circulation
In further support of Nocebo hypothesis:
Covid may have circulated widely since early Fall 2019 - many months before significant rise in illness or mortality
