# The Graveyard of COVID-19 Missed Information

The British social hierarchy of the Middle Ages and beyond was divided into “three estates of the realm”:the king, the clergy, and the commoners.
More modern times brought the fourth estate, the non-establishment, independent journalists. Our founders knew that for a successful democratic republic, the press had to be a watchdog. Journalists now have become morticians who embalm and bury stories at the bidding of their puppet masters.
In many cases, the government with its media accomplices quietly plucked from the public square information that is not to their liking, irrespective of its factual accuracy. COVID-19 has brought the practice out of the shadows. With our health at stake, it is imperative that all sides of the science are available. Let the people decide.
Welcome to the cemetery. The PCR test used to diagnose an infection with SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, was found to have as high as [97 percent of false positives](https://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=45720260&msgid=502937&act=93PZ&c=917709&destination=https%3A%2F%2Facademic.oup.com%2Fcid%2Farticle%2F72%2F11%2Fe921%2F5912603&cf=15709&v=48c026784267723c477b23dd89d98bd98c5321fd5fa1e4289b1c0f911c2ca78c) for infectiousness because the test was so sensitive that it measured dead viruses that could not cause disease. Even the inscrutable Dr. Fauci [agreed](https://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=45720260&msgid=502937&act=93PZ&c=917709&destination=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3Da_Vy6fgaBPE&cf=15709&v=6dadb25a51ff324f863a6f41f771187f98cd61164db655624ab5db5fb5192c29) with that assessment. After the vaccines that were going to bring us back to the old normal, the CDC set strict rules for testing of vaccine “breakthrough” cases. It wanted [“only specimens” that were collected with a PCR test that was much less sensitive](https://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=45720260&msgid=502937&act=93PZ&c=917709&destination=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cdc.gov%2Fvaccines%2Fcovid-19%2Fhealth-departments%2Fbreakthrough-cases.html&cf=15709&v=841b0d21f92b03044c6adab6754ccb07e2657206fd121cd73f28720106e83cbd). Was this done to make the vaccines look more effective?
It’s unlikely anyone saw that the CDC will soon [abandon the PCR test](https://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=45720260&msgid=502937&act=93PZ&c=917709&destination=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cdc.gov%2Fcsels%2Fdls%2Flocs%2F2021%2F07-21-2021-lab-alert-Changes_CDC_RT-PCR_SARS-CoV-2_Testing_1.html&cf=15709&v=aed428a1aa8d97917cc60cd037a4199eff642151bb1cbadf09558c10bffd83e6). What a coincidence that a consortium backed by Bill Gates bought out [Mologic](https://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=45720260&msgid=502937&act=93PZ&c=917709&destination=https%3A%2F%2Fnews784.com%2F2021%2F07%2F20%2Fbill-gates-and-george-soros-buy-out-uk-covid-test-company-mologic%2F&cf=15709&v=01e16dac012eb2ee47ae00e0a272e146d085d51bfe23016dcbaf9a1ccd05f32a), a company with a yet-to-be-approved COVID test.
Then there’s a CDC analysis of [infections and mask-wearing](https://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=45720260&msgid=502937&act=93PZ&c=917709&destination=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cdc.gov%2Fmmwr%2Fvolumes%2F69%2Fwr%2Fpdfs%2Fmm6936a5-H.pdf&cf=15709&v=948874d6c752e1699f0cfca46575b98b2e9bada94a7c8888f3294ad8eac82a01). “In the 14 days before illness onset, 71 percent of case-patients and 74 percent of control participants reported always using cloth face coverings or other mask types when in public.” Only 4 percent of the case-patients “never” wore a mask. The explanation was that the masked case-patients frequented restaurants and got infected when they removed their masks to eat.
The mainstream reporting of COVID-19 deaths is sensationalism at its worst. The newscasts implied any infected person would surely be on death’s door at some point. Again, the CDC’s own [analysis of COVID hospitalizations](https://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=45720260&msgid=502937&act=93PZ&c=917709&destination=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cdc.gov%2Fpcd%2Fissues%2F2021%2Fpdf%2F21_0123.pdf&cf=15709&v=f5aa86a306e13c9ed69977f3f03c0033a507d0af94cbdc73fa26627af91825f7) showed that the risk of death while hospitalized was 0.3% for patients with no comorbidities. The analysis showed that the strongest risk factors were obesity, diabetes with a complication, and anxiety disorders. Yet we did not hear that we should lose weight and exercise. (How unfortunate that the gyms were closed.) Our mental health was tested by lockdowns and lack of socialization.
Even French virologist and Nobel Prize winner [Luc Montagnier](https://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=45720260&msgid=502937&act=93PZ&c=917709&destination=https%3A%2F%2Ftelanganatoday.com%2Fmass-vaccination-during-pandemic-historical-blunder-nobel-laureate&cf=15709&v=82005caed631251159aa68978820bf25c4ca89fdb661d6323b9d26b29bf0bbb5) was ghosted when he posited that mass vaccination against the SARS-CoV-2 virus during the pandemic was creating variants. His science appears to have been borne out. The CDC reported an [outbreak in Massachusetts](https://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=45720260&msgid=502937&act=93PZ&c=917709&destination=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cdc.gov%2Fmmwr%2Fvolumes%2F70%2Fwr%2Fmm7031e2.htm%3Fs_cid%3Dmm7031e2_w&cf=15709&v=f3b0c9d917c928e2c1b75d4989b5fd960c96abf4ece580c754321c22ec281ce1) where 90 percent of SARS-CoV-2 infections were identified as the Delta variant. Moreover, 74 percent of the infected were fully vaccinated. There are [similar findings](https://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=45720260&msgid=502937&act=93PZ&c=917709&destination=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.businessinsider.com%2Fisrael-50-of-delta-variant-cases-vaccinated-severe-2021-6%3Fop%3D1&cf=15709&v=d218bcdaab756dec076a8477174199171461e4489f6c3ef8103814e5042efb05) in the United Kingdom and Israel. In another instance, 75 to 80 percent of recently infected staff members at two [University of California San Francisco hospitals](https://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=45720260&msgid=502937&act=93PZ&c=917709&destination=https%3A%2F%2Fnewsweek365.com%2F2021%2F07%2F31%2F233-staff-at-2-san-francisco-hospitals-test-positive-in-july%2F&cf=15709&v=7824a096b40b5cde7e49e50221ad4f13a68d7cbc28a972623c30c29b2361f61b)were fully vaccinated.
The most devastating missed information is the effectiveness of early treatment of COVID-19. Since February 2020, clinicians had successfully treated patients early in the disease process with [hydroxychloroquine](https://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=45720260&msgid=502937&act=93PZ&c=917709&destination=https%3A%2F%2Fc19hcq.com%2F&cf=15709&v=33ee63c9a8e0e9ed64103af60af13aece2b530acacf7223777e340fd7712bde6). A campaign to discredit these successes followed. When Dr. Fauci’s pet drug, Remdesivir was found to be [ineffective](https://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=45720260&msgid=502937&act=93PZ&c=917709&destination=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thelancet.com%2Fjournals%2Flancet%2Farticle%2FPIIS0140-6736%2820%2931022-9%2Ffulltext&cf=15709&v=96f837d2d18eb5c97bf5a16763cd0402cfc07d283d8996800f104ec3a7d66233), the media buried the study. Despite studies showing its [benefit](https://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=45720260&msgid=502937&act=93PZ&c=917709&destination=https%3A%2F%2Fc19ivermectin.com%2F&cf=15709&v=315945f5ac46c6b602808e01d627137342a91975e49238f2504da37a57954d36), ivermectin was given the hydroxychloroquine smear treatment. [Hydroxychloroquine](https://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=45720260&msgid=502937&act=93PZ&c=917709&destination=https%3A%2F%2Flist.essentialmeds.org%2Fmedicines%2F276&cf=15709&v=0c6ce2ee28e9d84196a0baf2084aa60057e0ec72437901addadc21b8864e9ca2) and [ivermectin](https://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=45720260&msgid=502937&act=93PZ&c=917709&destination=https%3A%2F%2Flist.essentialmeds.org%2F%3Fquery%3Divermectin&cf=15709&v=3fa45adc3c80b0a3b43510d91dd9fd327d932dd7f01b8fcbc3611cdba07f11bc) are fully FDA-approved, have a long record of [safety](https://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=45720260&msgid=502937&act=93PZ&c=917709&destination=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cdc.gov%2Fmalaria%2Fresources%2Fpdf%2Ffsp%2Fdrugs%2FHydroxychloroquine.pdf&cf=15709&v=b8133fb6d1f11e9850469a59a2b9b1edf24eae9389110950d5ea98ba2580217a), and remain on the World Health Organization list of essential medicines. What’s the problem? They are very inexpensive and generic.
With early treatment sidelined, the experimental vaccines became the panacea. But why are we expected to ignore the RNA vaccines’ role in encouraging variants and serious side effects such as [heart inflammation, paralysis, and death](https://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=45720260&msgid=502937&act=93PZ&c=917709&destination=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.openvaers.com%2Fcovid-data&cf=15709&v=f8b2a04152057099b0b9fa41943bf89d20d293e71d075185a71900f31dd296b1)? Could money be a motivator? Pfizer reports that it will have [$33.5 billion in Covid-19 vaccine sales](https://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=45720260&msgid=502937&act=93PZ&c=917709&destination=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.forbes.com%2Fsites%2Faayushipratap%2F2021%2F07%2F28%2Fpfizer-expects-335-billion-in-vaccine-revenue-in-2021%2F%3Fsh%3D4296b4d9217d&cf=15709&v=18684341cd525b4f8d889bf45f9e721b8b7326e170223791d106cbd9a0981a14) in 2021, with even more revenue anticipated from the booster shots.

Are the pharmaceutical companies the Fifth Estate?
The politicians’ hypocrisy says it all.

Do some digging. The truth is out there.
