COVID Began Far Earlier
Than We Were Told

Original Article

Posted By: Magnante, 7/12/2021 4:05:02 AM

COVID has been a wrecking ball on the U.S. and world’s economies, devastating businesses, families, and individuals. How much of what we have been told by government “experts,” parroted by the media, has been false, either by design or incompetence? (snip) Isn’t a basic tenet of public health investigating the origin of contagious infectious disease, not just place but time? (snip) 11.6% of individuals in a lung cancer clinical trial, months before the known COVID outbreak, had already been exposed to the virus. As antibodies take several weeks post infection to develop, it’s likely that some individuals had active infections in August 2019

I am very sure I had it back in December of 2019. I had all the symptoms and when I tested for flu it came back negative. I was sickish for about 5 days and then began to get better. When the news of Covid came out I said to myself, "sounds exactly like what I had last year". I mentioned it in my very prog workplace and got shot down. I am happy to be vindicated.

COVID was a political virus that was used to win the 2020 election.

The use of this virus as a political weapon is evidence of just how evil and determined democrats are to control the American people through an oppressive and overreaching government. It is hard to imagine the thought process of individuals who believe that the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Americans is just collateral damage in their quest for power. This is today’s democrat party, everything for the state by whatever means necessary.

Two friends had it I am sure in Nov 2019. It took them 2 months to feel better. Visits to the doctor came up with nothing. They are healthy now.

In early 2020, come Chinese men were caught leaving the country with biological material strapped to their ankles. Also, there was a professor at Harvard who got into trouble and was found to be associated with the Wuhan Institute of Virology. But that story seems to have been buried.

It was "trumped" up to get Trump. The wink wink nod nod went out to the media and all the leftist bureaucrats to incite panic. Doctors weren't allowed to treat it. As soon as Biden was safely installed, they changed the parameters for the test, so "cases" went down, but no so much that they couldn't still control us with their mandates. I'm sure some [untreated] people actually died from [neglecting] the virus, but most of the deaths were died "with," not "of." It's so obvious to me. What is happening to my country? What will we ever do about it?

We had it February 2020 - daughter was in college. Came home the weekend complaining of cold like symptoms. By Monday, she had fever. She tested at the university clinic - it came back saying Type A. I swiftly followed by Monday evening. I tested for Type A as well, but the Tagamet I got from the Dr did absolutely nothing for me. By Tuesday evening, the husband was down. We had fever and chills for the next 3-4 days. House was like a tomb, with none of us moving much except to take medicine and use the bathroom. When the fever broke, we were as weak as lambs. We didn't feel much more like normal for the next two weeks. I personally could not remember having the flu, even as a child, but even then, I felt like I had never been sick like that. Ever. Daughter, IIRC, had even noted having some slight issues with breathing, but it (fortunately) did not become enough of an issue to warrant further medical attention. Proud to say she went back up to the school and busted her little heart out to catch up with her classes...and would have done flyingly well, if the university had not shut down and forced them to do all on-line classes. The lab course she was taking bailed on the students and essentially made the class impossible to follow. After some limp-wristed attempts to keep things going, only one or two profs made the effort to work personally with their students. One prof essentially stopped talking to his students altogether but had the audacity to give them low grades anyway. Im personally resentful of the college (and colleges) who did not simply do a pass/fail. She did passed all classes except the lab, but she may have to stay in college just a bit longer in order to correct what the college failed to do. I realize all of that was unprecedented and NO one had any idea of how to deal with it, but the burden of correction was laid upon the student, not the staff. If they try and make my daughter, who is still single and of childbearing age (I want grandchildren!), I'm suing the school.

fta: "either by design or incompetence" I would venture to say this was ALL by design because Mr. Trump brought the "Chy-na" economy to heel in many ways. As #1 said, I'm almost sure that my wife and I had the thing between Thanksgiving and Christmas in 2019 as a Z-pack helped with recovery after about a week and a half. The demonrat socialists just piled on with the help of the social and electronic media propaganda machine along with the tampering of mail-in votes and signature verification laws being ignored or out right violating the law as prescribed, with chain of custody issues to cheat the election results. Create a "burst water main" in Georgia and pull out those ballots! The evidence that EXACT percentages of a particular voting age group in EVERY county, not just Antrim county, and the fix was in. Get the media to pile on to silence or ruin reputations of concerned citizens who gave hundreds upon hundreds of affadavits that something was wrong, and ad a Supreme Court that BY THE CONSTITUTION have to take cases where one state sues another and they REFUSE TO HEAR IT, and they dragged things out until Pence didn't have conclusive evident to do his duty. States have taken measure to prevent this sort of thing from happening again, but is it all too late?

My daughter and her family were all very sick in December 2019 with something that felt like the flu. And a couple of other relatives had something similar in January 2020 after a trip to Disney World. Hmmmmm. #3, it’s not hard to imagine the thought process if one has read the statements made by Bill Ayers or has lived in a communist country. I have done both and have been well aware of those thought processes for almost 40 years. I just never thought that it could happen here.

And I thought I had the inside baseball on the timing of this. August is even earlier than my source from within the infection control community with direct Chinese input. We think it ran through us starting in November 2019. I was sick for the first time in over 30 years. The entire local family in close contact went down with symptoms that are 100% consistent with COVID. This was an unholy alliance between China and the US swamp. Yes, we let our dirty election infighting kill on a massive global scale. This is the stuff world wars are made of.

The democrats need a crisis to excite their numbskull troops, including the left media, because they have no ideas for Americans. The conservatives have all the good ideas for the normal people. Trump showed that. So the dems rely on climate change, systemic racism, and any other bogus cause they can create. The democrat party is corrupt to the core, and bad for the goodness of this country. Just look at the 2 current heads of this country! What a joke they are.

In January 2020 I came down with what I thought (and docs said) was a sinus infection. Temp was 102, and I slept for almost 5 days straight. Got Z pack. Second time at doctor he said it had turned into pneumonia. I finally got over it, but coughed for about 8 weeks. Got it again this year in February. I plan to get antibodies test next time I am at doctor. Again this year thought it was sinus infection, did get tested for covid but test was negative. I will get antibodies test next time I am at doctor. Everyone around me that tested positive thought they had sinus infection until tested. Friend had it again early this year and she has lingering symptoms. It is only thru God's mercy that this country didn't go down the tubes worse than it did.

Good article. Now, Dr. Joondeph, using your investigative and analytical skills, find out about the status of the 300 US service members who returned from the Wuhan Military Games end of October 2019. This has received scant press coverage and that was back in early 2020. My unsubstantiated charge is that these GIs were used as vectors to help the spread of the virus. Why is there nothing, zero, zip from DoD and absolutely no media interest in this subject?

In 2019, I suffered with a respiratory cough that started EACH TIME as a nasal sinus infection and morphed into bronchitis-like symptoms on three separate occasions. May-August-November of 2019. Each episode lasted 4-7 weeks with a wracking uncontrollable cough. Saw doctors. Took Rx meds. Nothing seemed to help. Just had to get through it. I had never had anything like this before. In 2020…when Covid struck I was fearful I’d be compromised and hospitalized. The exact opposite happened…I never came down with “the cough” in 2020. Not once. Traveled out-of-state by car in 2020 more than once. Didn’t lockdown. Only wore a mask when required. Took extra precautions to stay away from “sick” people and remained vigilant with my personal health. As a recent cancer survivor I see multiple doctors every six months. Did I have a pre-Covid variant in 2019? Who knows? My health pattern was highly unusual that year. I chose to be vaccinated with the Pfizer vaccine. So far…so good. My choice. But, I am vehemently opposed to giving the Covid vaccinations to our young adults and children. We just don’t know enough about this man-made biologic.

Haven't had a real sick day in over 2 years, thank God. In an ironic way I benefited from the lockdown. I see fewer people, therefore I pick up fewer bugs. Not hiding in my house either. Florida weather is better than New York weather for sure. I do get bouts of irregular heartbeat. Sometimes when I'm sick, but also due to an upset stomach, or a bad medicine. Had a bout of irregular heartbeat back in March of 2020, but all I had were some sniffles. Somehow doubt it was COVID though.

November 2019 (before death was invented, as my daughter says) My daughter came to visit from her home in Huntington Beach CA. She was sick all through the Thanksgiving Holiday. After she left to return to CA I took all of the bedding from the room that she stayed in to a laundromat so I could launder everything at one time. She was reallly sick! My wife was sick a month later for about two weeks. Neither my other daughter nor I have never had any symptoms. PTL! Everyone recovered just fine.

#3 and #12, you make a pretty strong case that covid 19 was here long before Fauci and Birx et al, said it was here. Besides, the dims had a second and most fraudulent impeachment scam to orchestrate in February 2020 against President Trump and setting the covid pandemic narrative out there too early was not politically convenient for them.

The Bay Area is experiencing mobs of bicycle riders stopping to attack and seriously injure drivers who provoke their wrath, while riding around in large groups that the cyclists call “ride outs.” ABC7News (KGO Television) reports: A Santa Clara driver suffered fractures to his ribs and back after a mob of bicyclists brutally assaulted him following an accident involving one of them. This is the latest in a string of violent incidents involving large groups of bicyclists, popularly known as “ride outs”, a rapidly growing trend where large, often informal groups of cyclists -- from dozens to thousands -- gather to ride through city streets.

The assassination of Charlie Kirk is a horrific reminder that the left is based on nothing other than terror, violence, and aggression. This has been true since Karl howled to Friedrich that the bourgeois would someday pay for his plague of skin boils. The history of the Left is a history of violence. Scarcely a single leftist government has gained power without violence or the threat of violence. No leftist government has ever remained in power without violence. Violence is built into the very foundations of leftist ideology. Marx himself fantasized in print over the apocalyptic events that would accompany the revolution of the proletariat

Here's the current breakdown if a British election were held today: Reform:30% Labor: 21% Conservative: 17% Liberal Democrats: 13% Greens: 9% In other words the parties that have brought Britain to the brink of civil war by supporting mass immigration still command 60% of the vote. Not a picture that suggests massive support for dramatic change. I know, the "first past the post" system would give Reform, at 30%, a large Parliamentary majority, but that doesn't mean the country would be remotely close to unified behind a Reform government.

The villain is apparently the business itself, which finally decided it had enough and decided to cut its losses. According to a report from the Chicago Sun-Times, a Walgreens located at 8628 S. Cottage Grove Ave. in the crime-ridden area is set to close permanently on June 4. Democratic Alderman William Hall joined residents outside the store Monday, where signs read “Senior Lives Matter” and “End Corporate Abandonment.” “Walgreens should be charged with first-degree corporate abandonment,” Hall said. “It should be a crime the way they’re treating our elders.

Host Jake Tapper said, “You are a progressive icon. But now you are expressing some reservations about where the progressive movement has gone. Tell us more.” Frank said, “Yeah, I, you know, I’ve been trying to decide, by the way, personally, whether it’s better to be an icon or an emoji. I haven’t decided that yet.

South Carolina GOP Rep. Nancy Mace claimed Monday that Congress’ sexual harassment slush fund allegedly paid for settlements for a handful of former lawmakers that equaled more than $300,000. Mace promised accountability for the victims, and the House paid out approximately $338,000 to settle the cases. One former lawmaker was targeted in sexual assault lawsuits three times and the House cumulatively paid out $115,000 to dismiss those cases. The House Oversight panel subpoenaed information detailing the government payouts after a March committee vote, seeking a full accounting of payouts made before the settlements ended in 2018, according to Politico.
