“What is really an enduring concern is that last week police apprehended and took off the streets 83 young kids. Eighty of them were Aboriginal, two were six-year-olds out there at 1am, and 11 (were) nine-year-olds,” Mr Dawson told 6PR Wednesday morning.

These kids are not in a safe place if they are on the streets late at night, and then of course we’ve got the other young ones videoing themselves and putting it on TikTok as a game.

80/83; I’m surprised the ratio is not 100%.

And I’d say being on the streets is safer then being at home given the rate of domestic violence in the 44th nations is 35 times the rest of the community

Very interesting 1000 Year Review of Russian and Ukrainian History by Putin from July last year:

http://en.kremlin.ru/events/president/news/66181#sel=2:82:Wo3,2:94:1jm

He believes the West has infiltrated Ukrainian thought and politics where national indigeneity recognition bills that have been drawn up are causing further division in the region. I didn’t realise “Ukraine” is ancient Russian for “periphery (of the Rus).”

I think he’s a complicated fella and can’t be put into a box but it was an interesting read on that part of the world.

And look here.

I know Ive banged on about it, but the WA state (and as far as i can tell every state) has not made vaccinations mandatory for people under their direct control.
Prisoners.

Only 65 per cent of prisoners in WA are double or triple-dose vaccinated against COVID-19, according to figures released by the state government.
….
Few WA prisoners have had COVID-19 booster jab despite Omicron’s steady rise

Teen inmates’ jab rate ‘shockingly low’
Less than 30 per cent of prisoners in youth detention centres have received at least one dose.

By comparison, more than 98 per cent of people aged 12 to 15 in WA have had one or more doses.
Ms McNeill said the vaccination rates in prisons were “shockingly low”.

“The failure by the department to have a continued, rolling vaccination program across all WA prisons could have real, devastating consequences,” she said.

“Prisoners are at a heightened risk from COVID-19 due to a higher rate of underlying medical conditions than the general population and inadequate healthcare.”

No “mandates” for them!

It’s all good, until your missus finds out. The NT News:

AN NT man who deposited and subsequently lost more than $6000 in sports bets over the course of an afternoon has demanded the bookmaker return his money for failing to recognise his “red flag” behaviours.

The punter appeared before the Northern Territory Racing Commission earlier this month, alleging wagering giant bet365 failed to comply with the Online Gambling Code of Practice when he made 11 deposits in the space of three hours and 22 minutes on May 4, 2020.

Well over and above his usual amounts, apparently.

The customer argued bet365 should have recognised his supposed red flag behaviour,

So?

which included gambling for an excessive amount of time,

Define ‘excessive’.

changing his gambling pattern,

Uh huh.

making more frequent deposits, and increasing the amount of money he was depositing.

Which is kind of the point. At this stage, five hours and $6K in, the bloke has evidently realised ‘er indoors wasn’t going to be overly pleased. So, it became victim time:

Following the hefty losses, which totalled $6,318.05, the man emailed the bookmaker indicating he may have a “gambling problem/addiction”.

According to the Commission, bet365 “immediately” suspended his account and “permanently excluded” his account the following day.

Nasty old betting company. Adding insult to injury (at the hands of Mrs Punter, no doubt):

But the Commission ruled in favour of bet365, concluding there was no evidence of noncompliance with either the Code or the Betting Act, saying the man’s behaviour would not have “reasonably raised red flags” to the betting company.

As such, the Commission determined bet365 was not required to pay out any money to the complainant.

Gambling. The new ‘drink spiking’.

ftb, your jogger reminds me of a woman lycra clad type in Townsville about 15 yo. Her riding partners would ride in the verge lane but she would be in the left lane about where the left side of the car normally sits. I came across her one afternoon during rush hour on Dalrymple rd and was wondering why motorists were braking suddenly or half moving into the right lane till I was on top of her for my oh sh moment. Oh did I mention this part of Dalrymple rd was 80km/h and there was a good car length of room in the verge lane. I drove away thinking sheesh what an effin idiot. I saw her twice after that riding in the same manner in the fast moving congestion.

A while later I was reading the Townsville Bulletin when it didn’t have a fire wall and here she was with a crumpled bike and bruises carrying on about dangerous drivers and how no one respects cyclists etc… The best part was when she admitted she had never held a drivers licence.

Sancho don’t play the ingenue, you know that I and everyone else doesn’t believe that Abbott would physically accost Putin, however he did threaten him and that’s a dangerous game to play.

Cassie, Abbott had his chance, failed miserably sat on his core and now prances the world stage on his exorbitant taxpayer pension. Clive is putting his money where his mouth is and has skin in the game.

You really think that no one can be direct if they are not a superpower. That all discussions among diplomats are finished before they have started because of a great international pissing contest. Why not consider that Abbott meant it as far as our minnow strength would allow? Certainly Australia got especial recognition from at least one country (they dangled a sadly unfatal) chain around the neck of our Foreign Minister. Oh, but maybe it was Julia Bishop being courageous!

What was Abbott’s chance, precisely? I assume in the quivering gyri and sulci of your brain you have a list of what he could have achieved despite his party. Complaining that he should have achi8eved things that his party made impossible is pointless. Complaining that he should never have promised anything is not an argument I have seen made yet, so this should be fun.

I know for a lot of people here s18C is a sore point, and its existence is appalling. But after the deliberate characterising of it as the ‘right to be a bigot’ by Brandis – perfectly served up for teh ABC and thus all media – what was he to do. Here is a bit of heresy: How many people do you know of who have been brought a crupper by s18C since Andrew Bolt? Doubtless there are many who might have said more, so you can restrict yourself to those who would have said something but were stopped by s18C – but unafraid of provoking a reaction on state legislation grounds. So, given how few people have been speared by its vexatious provisions, doesn’t it make sense that he would focus on issues which more directly impact Australians. I personally do not doubt he would have got around to it when he could.

I will say that I was saddened by the reality of Abbott’s premiership. But I would reserve the word ‘disappointed’ for someone who didn’t try. You seem to be using it for someone who simply did not succeed.

But, I have learned this. If ever I learn you are in such dire pass that I can help, I will do nothing without a guarantee of success – because I would not want to disappoint you.

I’d still have liked him to try so the totalitarians would all have to have their vote preserved on record forever in Hansard, but he may well have decided that it was pointless to suffer the loss of credibility that would ensue from a defeat.

If he got 9 decisions I have come up with as diagnostic right, but one wrong, then absolutely he is a traitor.

He lost me when he did not convince the local library to forgive my overdue fees.

He was the most conservative PM we had for decades – certainly out of what was the current crop. We all worked out what he was supposed to do. He did not do it all, and was ultimately booted out for being unpalatable to the Turnbull-esque sewage. And for that he is despised the same as even Turnbull himself. Seriously, when was the last time someone here credited him with an achievement, rather than blaming him for not being perfect like Turnbull was not perfect (and therefore the same – although more vitriol for Abbott because at one level we expected better)?

Sorry, but the reflexive slagging of Abbott because he (I think) tried and failed on some metrics really reads like the Monday morning coaches.

Cassie, it was a dumb thing to say. I know all pollies say and do dumb things but I thought Abbott would know better, but then again he did his best to ruin Pauline Hanson for no good reason, except politics.

He then also stood by Credlin as she gutted him.

An easy thing for her to do after all the wrong people he appointed & good people he buried thanks in great part to her advice.

From Wycheproof to Geelong to Moonee Valley Trots, RVL & beyond, there’s nowhere she’s been that she didn’t leave with others metaphorically & actually dead as she sprung onto more & better for herself.

Abbott could have worked with Hanson to become a force across all classes but instead he went with ‘the’ ‘class’.

Traits that were’t apparent prior to the election. I was hugely disappointed in Abbott. He allowed himself to be manipulated into making serious strategic and political errors and in doing so , he moved away from the base that put him in office.

Regarding the MH17 shoot down, have the CVR & FDR Recorders information actually been released fully or has it just been stated what was on them?
Just asking.

Neither will tell you much of anything in an aircraft not equipped with military-grade Radar Warning Receivers, nor are you going to get a great deal of cockpit chatter or telemetry when a large missile designed to kill high-speed, violently manoeuvring fighter aircraft with a large bubble of explosive overpressure and fragmentation, explosively decompresses your fuselage near the cockpit and tears most of the front of the aeroplane apart.

Furthermore, pieces of the missile were dug out of the wreckage.

Not everything is a conspiracy of omission and deliberate witholding, Dribbles…

Kumanjayi Walker ‘kept resisting after third shot’

Northern Correspondent

No Comments

Aboriginal teenager Kumanjayi Walker continued to resist arrest after Northern Territory police constable Zachary Rolfe shot him three times, a court has been told.

The troubled youngster from the outback community of Yuendumu was wanted for breaching a court order and for threatening two policemen with an axe three days prior. Constable Rolfe fired once after Walker stabbed him with scissors.

Remote Sergeant Adam Eberl, the only other person in the room at the time, told the NT Supreme Court Constable Rolfe’s initial response mimicked a scenario from police training. “So as the person was to come down with a knife, the training was as you raised up your arm, you drew your firearm from your holster, rotated it up at a 45-degree angle and fired into the subject (to achieve) immediate incapacitation,” he said.

Sergeant Eberl said he grabbed Walker in a “seatbelt hold”, wrestled the 19-year-old to the ground and tried to pin him there by his arm. What Constable Rolfe did next has him facing charges of murder, manslaughter and engaging in a violent act causing death. He has pleaded not guilty.

According to body-worn video played to the jury, Constable Rolfe reached around Sergeant Eberl’s back, placed his Glock at “point-blank” range on Walker’s chest and fired twice more.

The jury is being asked to pick through a maze of police rules and regu­lations, training manuals and other information to decide whether shooting Walker like that was legally justifiable.

Sergeant Eberl told the court he did not draw his own pistol because he was initially unaware Walker had a weapon, and when he became aware, he still did not draw “because his (Walker’s) right arm was out, and it wasn’t in front of me trying to stab me”.

Police are taught they can produce their firearm in response to a knife, under the training maxim “edged weapon equals gun”, but drawing a gun does not oblige firing it.

Constable Rolfe and Sergeant Eberl deployed to Yuendumu as part of a four-man Immediate Response Team. Sergeant Lee Bauwens, the officer in charge of that unit, testified that at the time of Walker’s shooting in November 2019, the then relatively new tactical IRT had never been used in a real, high-risk operation. He said the IRT’s “primary role is to cordon and contain” under four planned scenarios. He also agreed one lesson from standard police training was “it is only possible to be threatened if you place yourself in a position where you can be threatened”.

The court has heard Constable Rolfe’s and the IRT did not cordon House 511, where they suspected Walker was hiding and did not discuss what to do if they found him or if he turned violent; they were following their “own plan”, not one approved by superiors.

In body-worn footage played to the court, Sergeant Eberl can be heard telling Walker after the third shot to “Stop f..king around, or I’ll smash you”.

“And that’s because he was still, ‘f..king around’, he was not incapacitated?” defence barrister David Edwardson QC asked Sergeant Eberl, who agreed.

Sergeant Eberl confirmed to Mr Edwardson that Walker “certainly was not complying … in any way with your attempts to restrain him” and continued “resisting at all times”.

“And you never actually got control of his right arm, did you?” Mr Edwardson asked. “No, I did not,” Sergeant Eberl replied.

Joburg cops kill 10 robbers
By Afp

6:20PM February 22, 2022

Police have shot dead 10 would-be robbers in one of South Africa’s deadliest shootouts in recent years.

Police acted on a tip-off and deployed a helicopter to foil a planned robbery of an armoured truck carrying cash in the Johannesburg’s suburb of Rosettenville. The suspects fired at the police chopper and wounded one of the pilots, forcing police to shoot back.

“They shot the helicopter before anybody did anything to them,” Police Minister Bheki Cele said at the scene of the crime. “They shot the pilot.”

The minister said a gang of about 25 gunmen from the southeastern KwaZulu-Natal province, as well as from neighbouring Zimbabwe and Botswana, were involved in the attempted robbery. Eight of the surviving gang members were arrested, Mr Cele said.

If he was really serious he would be using a lot of his income to support or institute a coalition against the uniparty, a party to capture the many of us who are utterly disillusioned with the uniparty.

But he doesn’t he struts the stage with great words but when it comes to action, he’s missing as he was when PM. I despise him like I despise everyone of out PM’s back to at least McMahon.

8 Months in Ukraine (Euromaidan – MH17)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSx8HJfBl7U

After all these years of being taught about Fake News, Global Fake News, how they pull their tricks and how bloody evil it is, when it comes to some of the most evil, people still parrot it like gospel.

Even if they were watching events live and know how much the Global Partners of Clinton/Biden & Co (which includes both of Australia’s major Parties), simply changed and disappeared facts that would hurt their narrative, once the ‘official evil people’ were tagged, all the ‘nice’ people forgot what the truly evil people did.

At the time everyone saw the international observers being held back from the site while corpses rotted in fields & in homes, and how those observers were then chased off again when the Pro-EU/Biden Ukraine ‘govt’ started shelling the area again=slaughtering innocent Ukrainians again, just to keep all but their own people out.

Oh but their chain of evidence was ‘indisputable’ or you had ‘no compassion for the lives blow out of the sky’.

There’s a reason more than 1/2 a million Ukrainians escaped into Russia; they knew they couldn’t trust the same Clinton/EU Mobsters who also did a successful test run of their bloody murderous strategy in Yugoslavia.

Ooh ooh but ‘we’ did the world’s best jig-saw puzzle to ‘prove’ we weren’t the baddies … forget all about the air traffic controller & everyone else who reported live at the time, things very different to what we were latter told to believe, By Fake News AND The Govts who depend on them for all this Covid Tyranny.

This chappie wanted further promotion. His statements, which are exactly what Commish Chalker wanted to hear, are the crux of the prosecution case.

His ‘expertise’ is said to consist of running a Krav Maga gym and teaching cops to use handcuffs. He supposedly has little or zero experience in operational cop stuff, spending more than 20 years in backroom niche work.

Back when JC and others were attacking anyone for so much as reading Zerohedge, they were doing in depth articles about Hunter, Joe & Co in the Ukraine, including some significant maps of the where of it all.

You should still be able to find them via the search function at the site but lately I’ve had a bit of trouble getting them up.
Could be Zerohedge getting their head pulled in or just search engines/isp’s keeping things tidy for Clinton & Co at the mo.

The NT Government is proposing to raise the age of criminal responsibility to 14….in a place beset by juvenile crime….

The Gunner Government’s motivation to reduce the age of criminality is only a manipulative way of reducing the crime rate statistics and I have the experience to support this.

One of the main issues of why the NT will never progress in terms of combatting the extremely high volumes of crime, is solely due to NT Government practices which is not to tackle the hard issues which require community engagement, work, and ethical behavior.

For too long the NT Government has been persecuting good Territorians who do the right thing by society. Good, ethical Territorians are easy to control as they generally have things they can lose, such as employment, mortgages, businesses and generally won’t ever make comments or waves against their government for fear of reprisals.

The harder issues which are the crux of the NT’s problems, like crime and largely juvenile indigenous crime, is way too hard for this government to even imagine trying to tackle.

I was in the police for over 16 years at both the federal and NT levels. When it comes to crime, many governments hide the truth, to convince everyone the issues are being resolved. They do this by manipulating the statistics and I know firsthand. I personally was involved in the NT Police force when we were instructed to alter the statistics parameters on criminal damage by the government.

In 1919, at the age of twenty, Beria started his career in state security when the security service of the Azerbaijan Democratic Republic hired him while he was still a student at the Polytechnicum. In 1920 or 1921 (accounts vary) Beria joined the Cheka, the original Bolshevik secret police.

Reportation and resistance museum.
Nice litle home brand museum set up by local returned resistance members with a good range of exhibits, including quite a few guns though the camp uniforms were all off display for restoration.
Being so close to the Pyrenees looks like they were a way point to Spain.
Didn’t know the Spanish had a camp for the British at Miranda de Ebro.
I’ve revised my view of the French homage to resistance members, if those taken prisoner didn’t get summarily shot they got sent to camps like Ravensbruck in far worse conditions that regular prisoners of war.
A couple of local bishops got a mention too, both issued pastoral letters (in 1942) denouncing the treatment of Jews, that were read out at every parish.

Can genetic engineering make meat sustainable?
Climate-friendly sheep and salmon that eat less yet grow faster. Researchers are using genetic engineering to design animals for the livestock farming of the future.

It all started in 1990 with Herman the bull. The world’s first “transgenic” cow was implanted with a foreign gene, a special protein found in human breast milk. Herman survived and sired offspring that would hopefully produce milk containing the human protein.
Scientists wanted to use the milk to help develop drugs, including in the fight against AIDS. But the project failed.
Yet the dream of genetically modifying farm animals had only just begun, including the hope of bioengineering more sustainable meat and dairy products.
Climate sheep and eco pigs could combat global heating
In the 2000s, Canadian scientists created a so-called “Enviropig,” with genes altered to modify its digestion. With the animal excreting up to 66% less phosphate than ordinary pigs, the idea was to limit animal waste pollution of groundwater and rivers. But lack of funding caused the project to be discontinued in 2012.
More lately, animal bioengineering is being employed to fight climate change.
Livestock production worldwide generates 14.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), including climate-wrecking methane, which is roughly 28 times more potent than CO2 and is produced during the digestion of plant food.
Around 20% of methane emissions from cows are related to the animal’s genetic make-up. It might therefore be possible to soon reduce cattle methane emissions with the help of “gene editing,” according to the US Information Technology and Innovation Foundation.
While the breakthrough has not yet been made in terms of cows, a sheep recently bred in New Zealand emits 13% less methane than the average sheep. The breeders have calculated that if all of New Zealand’s 25 million sheep were replaced with this breed, it could reduce the sheep industry’s methane emissions by up to just 1% annually. But the researchers say it would be “significant” as it accumulates over time.

Super salmon
To date, there are only two genetically modified animal species approved for consumption worldwide: The GalSafe pig and the AquAdvantage salmon, both produced in the US.
GalSafe pork does not contain alpha sugars, which cause allergic reactions in some people, but is not yet available over the counter. The company plans to use the animals primarily to produce medicines and to create alpha-sugar-free organs to transplant into humans.
AquaAdvantage salmon, on the other hand, is available to consumers in North America. By inserting genes from other marine fish into the salmon, it not only grows in spring and summer but all year round.
The genetically engineered salmon also reaches its slaughter weight twice as fast as ordinary salmon yet requires one-fifth less feed. About 70% of the fish caught worldwide is currently processed into fish feed. Researchers hope that this proportion could be reduced thanks to bioengineering.

Contaminating the gene pool
But Mute Schimpf, a food activist with the environmental organization Friends of the Earth Europe, which opposes GMO salmon, points out the pitfalls of animal genetic engineering.
“There is a high risk that wild salmon will mix with the engineered salmon. And then in 20 years you’ll find out that the salmon might have health problems,” he said. “By then the whole population might be contaminated with the genes.”
Genetic manipulation should not be used to increase production but “to improve the welfare of the animals,” said John Dupre, chairman of the Nuffield Council on Bioethics and Professor of Philosophy at the University of Exeter.
Researchers have, for example, already succeeded in making pigs immune to the viral disease known as porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome, and in this case genetic engineering could be justifiable, Dupre said.
Are GMO animals the key to sustainability?
But even potential benefits of genetic engineering come at a price.
Attempts in China to design more muscular pigs caused many animals to die immediately after birth, partly due to an increased incidence of umbilical hernias. As the muscle gene affects the entire body, some pigs had extremely enlarged tongues and others additional vertebrae.
For Mute Schimpf, animal genetic engineering for sustainability is the wrong approach. Addressing the climate impact of meat and dairy production can simply be achieved through reduced consumption. “We don’t need more intensive animal husbandry,” Schimpf said. “We need just the opposite.”
While genetically modified animals are not yet approved for consumption in Europe, John Dupre warns that increased production of bioengineered meat and dairy could lead to greater meat consumption.
Scientists have long been pointing out that people in industrialized countries in particular should eat less meat overall for health reasons — and for greater sustainability.

He’s never run an enterprise, made something work, or performed productive work.
He’s a prosecutor (i.e. all he’s ever done is call other people into question – colloquially this is known as “giving shit”)

this flowchart is basically pixie dust that highly paid consultants throw in the eyes of senior management.

“Develop a management plan with the person addressing their main
symptoms, problems, or risk factors, and an action plan. PP [Taskforce]
• Consider individual factors and access issues in determining location
for further treatment or rehabilitation e.g. home-based, telehealth or
face-to-face options. PP [Taskforce]
• Consider using a chronic disease plan, mental health care plan or other
enhanced care plan to facilitate access to multidisciplinary care. PP”

and what is in this plan?

“At present, we do not have evidence to recommend interventions that
are effective for managing, therefore use clinical guidelines to manage
symptoms.”

basically nothing. no diagnosis, no treatments, no clue as to cause. nada.

2 years into this pandemic and the government is totally unprepared for the covid aftermath.

Not only do they have nothing, they will not allow doctors to prescribe anything from working protocols to treat long covid.

given what I know about S1 spike protein persistence and long covid, my question remains, are we being purged? is this incompetence or industrial scale corruption?

everyone that is infected with covid will have persistent S1 spike protein in their system. quite likely everyone that is “vaccinated” will too.

So the first hint that something was wrong was when my resting heart rate normally around 60 went over a 100 and stayed there for 2 days. tests found nothing.

Five months post-covid, Nicole Murphy’s heart rate is still doing strange things
Five months after being infected with the coronavirus, Nicole Murphy’s pulse rate is going berserk. Normally in the 70s, which is ideal, it has been jumping to 160, 170 and sometimes 210 beats per minute even when she is at rest — putting her at risk of a heart attack, heart failure or stroke.

FAQ: What to know about the omicron variant of the coronavirus
No one seems to be able to pinpoint why. She’s only 44, never had heart issues, and when a cardiologist near her hometown of Wellsville, Ohio, ran all of the standard tests, “he literally threw up his hands when he saw the results,” she recalled. Her blood pressure was perfect, there were no signs of clogged arteries, and her heart was expanding and contracting well.

Murphy’s boomeranging heart rate is one of a number of mysterious conditions afflicting Americans weeks or months after coronavirus infections that suggest the potential of a looming cardiac crisis.

A mystery? you think? the media is trying to pull the wool over your eyes.

long covid is nothing but persistence of S1 spike protein causing inflammation and vascular damage. I had a very mild covid infection, yet a year later my immune system started trying to kill me. In fact there were earlier signs but I didn’t really pay much attention to them.

How toxic is S1?

The SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein disrupts human cardiac pericytes function through CD147 receptor-mediated signalling: a potential non-infective mechanism of COVID-19 microvascular disease

Microglial Implications in SARS-CoV-2 Infection and COVID-19: Lessons From Viral RNA Neurotropism and Possible Relevance to Parkinson’s Disease
In addition, it is now evident that SARS-CoV-2 infection presents with neurological symptoms that include early hyposmia, ischemic stroke, meningitis, delirium and falls, even after viral clearance. This may suggest chronic or permanent changes to the neurons, glial cells, and/or brain vasculature in response to SARS-CoV-2 infection or COVID-19. Within the central nervous system (CNS), microglia act as the central housekeepers against altered homeostatic states, including during viral neurotropic infections. In this review, we highlight microglial responses to viral neuroinfections, especially those with a similar genetic composition and route of entry as SARS-CoV-2. As the primary sensor of viral infection in the CNS, we describe the pathogenic and neuroinvasive mechanisms of RNA viruses and SARS-CoV-2 vis-à-vis the microglial means of viral recognition. Responses of microglia which may culminate in viral clearance or immunopathology are also covered. Lastly, we further discuss the implication of SARS-CoV-2 CNS invasion on microglial plasticity and associated long-term neurodegeneration. As such, this review provides insight into some of the mechanisms by which microglia could contribute to the pathophysiology of post-COVID-19 neurological sequelae and disorders, including Parkinson’s disease, which could be pervasive in the coming years given the growing numbers of infected and re-infected individuals globally.

According to this meta-study around half of people who catch covid will show symptoms of Post-Acute Sequelae of COVID-19. The reality is there are almost certainly a much larger number who show no symptoms yet will have long term adverse cardiovascular and neurological damage from the ability of S1 spike protein to evade normal viral detritus clearing processes.

Global Prevalence of Post-Acute Sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC) or Long COVID: A Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review

Findings Globally, the pooled PASC prevalence estimate was 0.43, whereas the pooled PASC prevalence estimate for patients who had to be hospitalized due to COVID-19 was 0.57. Regionally, estimated pooled PASC prevalence from largest to smallest effect size were 0.49 for Asia, 0.44 for Europe, and 0.30 for North America. Global pooled PASC prevalence for 30, 60, 90, and 120 days after index date were estimated to be 0.36, 0.24, 0.29, and 0.51, respectively

Persistence of SARS CoV-2 S1 Protein in CD16+ Monocytes in Post-Acute Sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC) Up to 15 Months Post-Infection

you can increase that to 2+ years, in fact indefinitely.

The summary, white blood cells whose job is to swallow and digest virii and related protein debris, choke on S1 and become dysfunctional. They stick to the lining of blood vessels in an activated state unable to die.

Meaning they are like a broken down car bogged down on the side of the road with its alarm turned on. The immune system is unable to find the S1 protein, its stuck inside these white blood cells, monocytes. Over time the immune system escalates to eliminate the cause of the alarm, damaging the lining of your blood vessels in the process. In some people the immune system incorectly develops antibodies against itself in order to shut off the alarm from these damaged monocytes.

In one podcast I listened to a woman in california was examined, and they found 40% of one particular type of monocyte had S1 spike protein stuck in them. That’s millions of dysfunction white blood cells hiding S1 and still raising an intruder alarm.

These monocytes are not continuously raising an alarm. Certain factors trigger them, one of which is exercise. A common thread with long covid is exercise triggers the condition, which is what I found.

How else is S1 evading clearing?

SARS-CoV-2 spike protein S1 induces fibrin(ogen) resistant to fibrinolysis: implications for microclot formation in COVID-19

S1 aside from being an extremely toxic protein is a natural coagulant. it forms micro-clots in your blood vessels that are resistant to normal de-clotting mechanisms and allow S1 to persist long after infection while still causing direct damage to blood vessels.

Routine blood test will not show anything, only a specialised TEG blood test will reveal the disfunction silently taking place in your vascular system.

seems like a pretty well designed bioweapon. If S1 delivered by the coronavirus doesn’t kill you quickly, it will do you slowly.

That is effectively what this virus is, it is an S1 protein delivery system.

Everyone has probably noted the relentless plausible deniability around “vaccine” injuries being another S1 delivery system.

People with Covid-19 may face long-term cardiovascular complications, study says
Compared with those who were never infected, people who had a coronavirus infection were more likely to have symptoms including inflammatory heart disease, heart failure, dysrhythmia, heart attacks, strokes and clotting in the long term. People with prior Covid-19 infections were more than 60% more likely to develop any cardiac issue. Many of these conditions, such as pulmonary embolisms, are life-threatening.
“In my own practice, I was more likely to see people who had more of the arrhythmias or report a rapid heartbeat after the Covid infection. Many times, over several months, the heart rate came down and improved,” Dr. Nieca Goldberg, an NYU Langone cardiologist and the medical director of Atria New York City, told CNN. She was not involved in the new study.
It is still unclear why Covid-19, a respiratory virus, can have such crucial effects on the cardiovascular system.
