1. Most Corona infections don‘t matter. Most infections you *don‘t even know about*. The infected recover after mild respiratory illness. 2. This makes the project of preventing all infections, generally, wrong-headed. You want to prevent the infections that matter.

3. Everywhere that Corona is widespread, infections occur across all sectors of the population. But the infections that matter - those that lead to death or serious illness - occur in very specific places.

4. In Germany, for example, almost all ICU cases (and therefore almost all deaths) occur either in nursing homes, or in the (Muslim) immigrant community. 5. It is therefore no wonder that uniform lockdowns have no effect on mortality. They house arrest the wrong people.

6. The theory was that we could suppress community spread *generally* and that this would save the vulnerable. This idea has been completely destroyed by everything that has happened since the first moment.

7. Nursing home cases are almost certainly seeded from hospitals. Muslim immigrant communities are almost totally closed to ordinary Germans. 8. The truly deadly pandemic is happening parallel to, but independently from, the lives of ordinary citizens.

A bit late for this when we already said this a full year ago. The responses we get from "experts" have been devastating and we cannot discuss that without people thinking we are crazy. I doubt myself sometimes, in the face of this monolithic mainstream narrative.

A lot of the insane experts driving the current panic themselves said this as late as February or even early March 2020. If you ever think you‘re crazy, just go back and read what the experts were saying early last year. It‘s everything we‘re saying now.
