The seas, lakes and oceans are now pluming deadly hydrogen sulfide and suffocating methane. Hydrogen sulfide is a highly toxic water-soluble heavier-than-air gas and will accumulate in low-lying areas. Methane is slightly more buoyant than normal air and so will be all around, but will tend to contaminate our atmosphere from the top down. These gases are sickening and killing oxygen-using life all around the world, including human life, as our atmosphere is increasingly poisoned. Because both gases are highly flammable and because our entire civilization is built around fire and flammable fuels, this is leading to more fires and explosions. This is an extinction level event and will likely decimate both the biosphere and human population and it is debatable whether humankind can survive this event.
A. More fires and more explosions, especially along the coasts, but everywhere generally.
B. Many more animal die-offs, of all kinds, and especially oceanic species.
C. More multiples of people will be found dead in their homes, as if they'd dropped dead.
D. More corpses found in low-lying areas, all over the world.
E. More unusual vehicular accidents.
F. Improved unemployment numbers as people die off.

2020-04-12 - Atmospheric methane levels hit record high and they're rising fast:
http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/methane-levels-reach-an-all-time-high/
http://www.independent.co.uk/environment/climate-change-methane-levels-record-noaa-global-warming-a9462741.html
http://rtoinsider.com/methane-levels-hit-all-time-high-160117/
Quote: "A preliminary estimate from NOAA finds that levels of atmospheric methane, a potent heat-trapping gas, have hit an all-time high."
Quote: "'Here we are. It’s 2020, and it’s not only not dropping. It’s not level. In fact, it’s one of the fastest growth rates we’ve seen in the last 20 years,' said Drew Shindell, a climate scientist at Duke University."
Note: Methane reacts with ozone and forms H2O and CO2. Hopefully all of this methane entering the atmosphere won't cause any gigantic not-seen-before ozone holes 3 times the size of Greenland to open!

2020-04-12 - Trump reportedly weighed letting COVID-19 wash over the US, but was warned of grim toll:
http://www.yahoo.com/huffpost/trump-free-range-covid-19-death-toll-032245601.html
http://www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-free-range-covid-19-death-toll_n_5e925a48c5b6f7b1ea82dcd7
Note: Spending the crucial initial six or eight weeks telling Americans that it was a Democratic hoax and that it was all under control and that soon there would be 0 cases basically DID let it wash over the US. Trump couldn't face reality. The countries that DID face reality and acted swiftly and decisively are in waaaaay better shape than the US. As Trump says, he went with his gut. That's the same gut that led him into bankruptcy after bankruptcy in business and failed marriage after failed marriage in his personal life. Now many Americans are dying unnecessarily. Ironically, because his supporters skew older, many of them will be among the dead, body bags the reward for their support...

Now They Are Telling Us That Life In America Will Definitely Not Be Returning To Normal “For The Foreseeable Future”
http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/now-they-are-telling-us-that-life-in-america-will-definitely-not-be-returning-to-normal-for-the-foreseeable-future
If you thought that this pandemic would pass quickly and that life in America would soon return to “normal”, I am afraid that you are in for quite a shock. Some of the restrictions currently in place will eventually be lifted, and efforts will be made to get people back to work, but life is still going to be radically different from what we had become accustomed to before COVID-19 started sweeping across the globe. Authorities are telling us that there may be “rolling shutdowns” for up to 18 months, that social distancing guidelines will be necessary for a long time to come, and that this crisis will not ultimately be resolved until they can inject everyone with a vaccine. If all of this greatly alarms you, please be assured that you are not alone. [more]
[notice he leaves out the fact that there probably CAN'T be a vaccine made for this - like with the regular flu, they'd have to GUESS which strain will dominate in the coming months or year and while they're making THAT vaccine, the fuckin' virus is MUTATING!!! Gates and his agenda are BULLSHIT!]

Rats in major US cities are resorting to war and cannibalism to survive the lockdown as expert claims Americans will face similar problems if the shutdowns go on much longer.
http://www.thebigwobble.org/2020/04/rats-in-major-us-cities-are-resorting.html
If the dire warnings from the food processing industry are anything to go by, however, Americans may soon face similar problems if the shutdowns go on much longer. So far, the biggest shortages in stores have been things like toilet paper and hand sanitizer, with food being reasonably plentiful. But the people making this possible – from farmers and ranchers to food processing plant workers, truckers and grocers – can’t work from home.
“We are weeks, not months, away from farmers euthanizing animals that would have been sold for meat [or] food,” Congressman Thomas Massie (R-Kentucky) warned on Monday. “Also, fruits and vegetables are going to rot in the fields.” America’s “brittle” food supply chain is going to result in supermarket shortages and processing plant closures, while farmers and ranchers will be forced to destroy their products, Massie warned, slamming people in the US government who “have no clue about how the economy works.” [more]

A northward shift in the jet stream will allow the storm track to remain well to the north.

Tornado Outbreak Tears Across the South, Killing 32: Fresh misery atop a pandemic, spreads across the United States on Monday, leaving more than 1 million homes and businesses without power
http://www.thebigwobble.org/2020/04/tornado-outbreak-tears-across-south.html
Severe weather has swept across the South, killing at least 32 people and damaging hundreds of homes from Louisiana into the Appalachian Mountains. Many people spent part of the night early Monday sheltering in basements, closets and bathroom tubs as sirens wailed to warn of possible tornadoes. Eleven people were killed in Mississippi, and six more died in northwest Georgia. Three other bodies were pulled from damaged homes in Arkansas, South Carolina and North Carolina.
The storms blew onward through the night, causing flooding and mudslides in mountainous areas, and knocking out electricity for nearly 1.3 million customers in a path from Texas to Maine, according to poweroutages.us. Striking first on Easter Sunday across a landscape largely emptied by coronavirus stay-at-home orders, the storm front forced some uncomfortable decisions. [more]
Fires rage in Chernobyl, radiation spikes in the area: Witnesses accuse the government of covering up the severity of blaze as it nears the site of the nuclear disaster.
http://www.thebigwobble.org/2020/04/fires-rage-in-chernobyl-radiation.html
TOXIC fumes could soon sweep across vast swathes of Europe from Ukraine, experts have warned, as firefighters battle to contain raging wildfires in the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone.
Witnesses accuse the government of covering up the severity of blaze near the site of the nuclear disaster.
Wildfires in Ukraine have spread less than a mile from the defunct Chernobyl nuclear power plant and a disposal site for radioactive waste, according to activists, as more than 300 firefighters work to contain the blaze. A video posted by a Chernobyl tour operator showed flames and a cloud of smoke rising within sight of the protective shelter over the carcass of Chernobyl's Unit 4 nuclear reactor, the site of the worst nuclear disaster in history. The tour operator, Yaroslav Yemelianenko, wrote that the fire had reached the abandoned city of Pripyat and was just 2km (1.24 miles) away from the nuclear power plant and the Pidlisny radioactive waste disposal site.
"The situation is critical. The zone is burning," he wrote

ReplyDeleteThoughts on the Coronavirus
https://www.sott.net/article/432494-Thoughts-on-the-Coronavirus
If there was ever a time for real leaders to step forward and lead, the last four months would have been the time to do so. If there was an issue that demanded cooperation from all the nations of the world, we have seen it. Instead we have been fed a steady diet of disinformation and outright lies from almost every government at most levels. If these are the leaders, we ought to fire the whole lot and start anew. Instead of "women and children first," we are seeing "every man for himself."
There also isn't a vaccine for HIV and HIV has killed 32 million people. There may never be a vaccine for HIV.
So why are so many people convinced we are going to have a vaccine for the coronavirus? HIV has been a problem for forty plus years and we have no vaccine.
It's all about money no matter what Bill Gates and Dr. Fauci tell you. Scare hell out of people and then demand they prove they have been vaccinated.
You can make a bundle with a good vaccine. Or even a poor vaccine that really doesn't do much of anything.
Why would you want a simple off the shelf drug to cure the virus when you can cash in big time by forcing people to be vaccinated? And by the way vaccines kill a lot of people and often don't prevent the diseases they claim to. [more]

We have a major crisis on our hands. Bill Gates is a VERY SERIOUS threat to not just the world economy, but to world peace. He has been using a loophole that allows health organizations to appear to be government agencies but are not independent and have been actually controlled by Gates. You will see that 80% of the funding of WHO is not from governments, but from donations. Then you see that Gates is the largest donor after countries listed on their website. Behind the curtain, the WHO has been bullied and pushed around by Bill Gates according to various sources one who is even writing a book on the domination of the WHO by Gates. [more]

The Bill Gates globalist vaccine depopulation agenda… as revealed by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
http://robinwestenra.blogspot.com/2020/04/the-bill-gates-globalist-vaccine.html
Documents obtained by the Daily Mail confirm that Communist China had been harvesting, developing, and testing novel coronaviruses on mammals using grant money from the U.S. government under former President Obama. [more]
The engineering and release of the coronavirus bioweapon was designed to accomplish two things: 1) Crash the global economy and achieve widespread starvation and depopulation, and 2) Corral the masses into vaccine mandates to achieve what the establishment literally calls “herd immunity” … because you and I are nothing but cattle to them.
The Wuhan coronavirus, which we now know was engineered by the very same Wuhan laboratory that was receiving millions of dollars in NIH funding under the Obama administration, is the ultimate dream of depopulation globalists like Bill Gates, as well as his sock puppets Dr. Fauci and Dr. Birx who have staged a Big Pharma coup at the White House.
This is why it’s now crucial for humanity to take a stand against the Big Pharma criminal cartel and reject mandatory vaccines. It’s time to arrest and prosecute all those engaged in the “death science” industry that’s the real agenda behind the vaccine industry front.
The Truth About Vaccines is now a must-see docu-series that reveals stunning truths about vaccines and the globalist agenda that many people are only now beginning to truly understand. [more]

Roman authorities are investigating controversial religious leader Jesus of Nazareth for violating the Empire's clear "stay in tomb" order. After crucifying him and laying him in the tomb, Roman guards put Him under strict orders to stay there and not come back, rising victorious over sin and death.
But Jesus, answering to a higher authority, refused to stay dead and busted out of the tomb, establishing a kingdom that would never end -- again, in clear violation of the government's orders. [more]
Many Of Us Already Had It: Chicago Antibody Test Results Show 30 – 50% Of Those Tested For Corona Virus Already Have Antibodies
https://strangesounds.org/2020/04/covid-19-antibody-test-results-chicago-shows-30-50-percent-had-coronavirus-already.html
At a hospital in Chicago, a non-randomized sample found that 30-50% of patients tested for Corona have antibodies in their system, suggesting they already had the virus and have potential immunity.
“A phlebotomist working at Roseland Community Hospital said Thursday that 30% to 50% of patients tested for the coronavirus have antibodies while only around 10% to 20% of those tested have the active virus.”
“A lot of people have high antibodies, which means they had the coronavirus but they don’t have it anymore, and their bodies built the antibodies.”
The antibody testing will better inform public health and government officials about how widespread the virus is already, and in turn, how effective their lockdown measures will actually be. [more]
The Corona Virus Data From China Are Completely False And Here’s Why
https://strangesounds.org/2020/04/corona-virus-data-china-false-why.html
Another instructive case is that of statistics regarding organ harvesting. China has admitted to using prisoners as sources of organs for medical purposes as early as 2005. The authorities promised in 2013 to end this practice, and they claimed to have stopped it in 2015.
However, in late 2019, Australian National University PhD researcher Matthew Robertson published research examining China’s reported organ harvesting data, finding that data sets match a simple mathematical formula, the quadratic function.
“It is difficult to imagine how this model could [have] been arrived at by mere chance, raising the distinct possibility that it was intended to deceive,” Robertson wrote.
The Red Cross of China is responsible for verifying and publishing organ donation data. So is the Red Cross compromised? [more; YES!]

A new data intercepted by the United States reveals that 21 million people died in China from December 2019 to March 2020, US intelligence officials conclude in a classified report for the Trump administration.
The Intelligence report stated that at least 20.9 million of the deaths were linked to coronavirus.
According to the US, the intercepted data that shows that China underreported its coronavirus infections and deaths was validated for a second time when it tallied with a data released by Beijing authorities. Beijing announced on March 19 that over 21 million cell phone accounts in China were canceled in the past three months while 840,000 landlines were closed. [more]

IMF projects global economy to decline 3%, US nearly 6% this year
ReplyDeletehttps://www.sott.net/article/432523-IMF-projects-global-economy-to-decline-3-US-nearly-6-this-year
The International Monetary Fund in a revised outlook for 2020 said Tuesday it expects the global economy to shrink by 3 percent due to the impact of the coronavirus outbreak. [pffff - it'll be more like 30% and 60%]
The IMF projects a 5.9 percent decline for the U.S. economy in 2020 followed by a 4.7 percent rebound next year. In January, the organization predicted 2 percent growth this year for the United States. [HAH! with global warming ramping up? IDTS]

In some hard-hit New York hospitals, doctors have begun to administer large intravenous doses of vitamin C, 3-4 times per day, alongside other treatments. Those who get the vitamin C do "significantly better" than those who don't.
Based on their experience, Chinese officials are now recommending vitamin C for prevention and treatment of COVID-19. A new clinical trial is underway China, premised on the fact that the antioxidant activity of vitamin C may help prevent cytokine-induced lung damage.
Data is accumulating on the kind of pre-existing conditions that leave us more vulnerable to coronavirus. Noted UK cardiologist Dr. Aseem Malhotra has found that the majority of those who fall seriously ill with the disease are suffering from chronic metabolic diseases including heart disease, high blood pressure and diabetes.
An early audit of hospitalized UK patients supports Malhotra's findings, showing that two-thirds were overweight. Combined with lowered immunity, excess weight against the chest means muscles have to work harder to draw in a full breath.
Environment, and particularly air pollution, is important, too. [uh . . . yeah!]
Even the skin on peanuts, so often blanched off in pre-prepared spreads and foods, has been shown to have a powerful antiviral effect, with researchers recently concluding that its polyphenol content "inhibits the early replication stages of the influenza virus."
ensure you are getting enough vitamin D
Vitamin A is also crucial to our immune response, coordinating both our innate and adaptive immunity. It supports the epithelium (which lines the outer surfaces of organs and blood vessels throughout the body, as well as the inner surfaces of cavities in many internal organs) and crucially, it protects the integrity of the mucus membranes of the body, such as in the gut and lungs, making it harder for infection to take hold.
Zinc is another immune-enhancing supplement.
Elderberry is safe to take as a daily preventative and there is some evidence to suggest that, should you fall ill, it could significantly speed recovery. Newer evidence shows effectiveness against human coronavirusHJcov-NL63 — one of the main circulating coronaviruses worldwide.
Echinacea (Echinacea purpurea) has both an antiviral and antibacterial activity.
A helpful review from 2017 published by the Tisserand Institute details antiviral effects from tea tree (Melaleuca alternifolia), cinnamon (Cinnamomum zeylanicum), bergamot (Citrus bergamia), lemongrass (Cymbopogon flexuosus), blue gum (Eucalyptus globulus) and thyme (Thymus vulgaris) oils, when applied to the cells in the lab.

Scientists have found oil from the Deepwater Horizon blowout in fishes' livers and on the deep ocean floor
https://www.yahoo.com/news/scientists-found-oil-deepwater-horizon-121627958.html
Much of the oil released in the spill created huge slicks at the water’s surface. But significant quantities of crude oil also were deposited at the bottom of the deep sea.
Importantly, no fish yet sampled anywhere in the Gulf has been free of hydrocarbons – a telling sign of chronic and ongoing pollution in the Gulf. It is not known if similar findings would result from ecosystem-wide studies elsewhere because such surveys are rare.
Many commercially important fish species were affected by the Deepwater Horizon disaster. Researchers found skin lesions on red snapper from the northern Gulf in the months after the spill, but the lesions became less frequent and severe by 2012. There is other evidence of ongoing and increasing exposures to hydrocarbons over time in economically and environmentally important species like golden tilefish, grouper and hake as well as red snapper.
Increasing concentrations of hydrocarbons in liver tissues of some species, such as groupers, suggest these fish have experienced long-term exposure to oil. Chronic exposures have been associated with the decline of health indices in tilefish and grouper. [more; incl. ~ 16.5 min. video]

[now they have to wait for the radiation to affect them]
Wildfires raging in the radiation-contaminated area near the Chernobyl nuclear power plant have been extinguished although grass is still smouldering in some areas, Ukrainian officials have said.
Hundreds of firefighters backed by aircraft have been battling several forest fires around Chernobyl for the past 10 days. They contained the initial blazes, but new fires raged closer to the decommissioned plant.
Emergencies Service chief Mykola Chechetkin reported to president Volodymyr Zelenskiy that rain helped firefighters put out the flames, but acknowledged it would take a few more days to extinguish smouldering grass. [more]
