1. Yes, you do certainly deserve a rest!

2. No, the CDC's explanation for modelling the data due to privacy concerns is not "reasonable" in the slightest when the lowest ranked airport, bar and restaurant staff are entitled to know your same vax status on demand. Fortunately, enough of us can not only see their lies but have the courage to reveal them to others.

"To the extent that there is modest efficacy in some of the stat lines, we see from the previous chart that the most healthy San Diegans are lumped more into the most vaccinated groups, while the least healthy are lumped into the least vaccinated groups. This confers a confounding advantage to the more vaccinated groups."

To supporting your point, I have updated my recent post with a graph for CA specifically showing CA counties with higher vax rates are richer, smoke less, less obese, have longer life expectancy, lower death rates, and are more physically active. I don't think it is too big of a leap to expect the vaccinated and unvaccinated populations within a county to exhibit those characteristics.

This proves the vaccines aren't working, and you're afraid to debate me about it. :)

But seriously, great work as always. And please always put an exec summary of your article at the top and a summary at the bottom. It helps those of us who are time constrained. :)

April 3 to 30, 2022 in BC 51% boosted. That is 3 shots. 14% unvaxed. COVID deaths, not all Cause mortality showed 76% of COVID deaths were boosted. Where as 7% were unvaxed. I’ve shown this to people. They look dumbfounded for a moment then most say ‘I’d need to see the ages of who died’. They say it triumphantly. I say ‘It’s a vaccine! If it worked, triple vaxed would be at 0%. If it were as good as being unvaxed it would show one third the amount of deaths in that category.’ Then I get ridiculous statements like where did these numbers come from? The BC Government. How accurate are they? Or, my fave. ‘Have these numbers been peer reviewed? I only read peer viewed studies.’ I say ‘they’re data, not studies. You don’t peer review data. Anyway the vax you took three times was not peer reviewed’. Which shocks them.

AMEN! OHH thank you so much for looking into San Diego County! I live in north San Diego county, and have been checking the data since the county started publishing. I had sent a text last Friday to my dad and his sister (both vaxxed and double/triple boosted) letting them know that "13/15" deaths were in the fully vaccinated". My Aunt, hasn't let myself, my husband or my teens get near her or my extended family because we are "unvaccinated". We all have superior immunity of course, from mild natural infection (Fall 2021). I find much pleasure in showing my family the facts. Thanks again MC!

I live in San Diego and I am not vaccinated. It is never going to happen as I trust my immune system.

I was at a biz lunch in SD some years back. Trump had just been elected. I’m a Canadian. I said, naively, ‘so what do you think of your new Prez?’ It was like I asked everyone if they were circumcised. Dead silence. And sort of shocked fear on peoples faces. I said ‘I know nothing about him but I like him. If he does what he says he is going to you guys will boom’. People looked around, leaned forward and whispered ‘I like him too’. It was really weird. Which we talked about. They were frightened. Genuinely. Fast forward a year or more. One of the lunch people was at a party in Del Mar. 20 people. All

Wealthy. Probably 8 Teslas of the ten couples etc. The whole party Trump was being attacked. Mostly two people doing it but seemingly everyone in on it. The person who had been at lunch had enough and said ‘I like him. I think he’s doing a good job.’ Stunned silence. The hostess rolled him apart. Then, someone else said ‘I like him too. Invited for him. I will again.’ Again the hostess, divorced, and her friend another divorced woman jumped on him. Eventually they took a vote. Eighteen of the twenty were pro Trump. The only two who weren’t were the divorced hostess and her divorced friend. When the party ended as my friend left and walked to his car two other couples came to him and his wife and thanked him for saying what he had. They said ‘until you spoke up I thought it was me against everyone’.

So the CDC does not use actual vaccination data in its many reports, it just estimates the vaccination rates? Despite the many millions spent on databases, state registries and reporting systems and elect medical records?

Astrid Stuckelberger's words keep coming to mind. "The data is murky." By design, no doubt.

2020 year of "pandemic" global death rate 0.76% same as pervious two non-pandemic years.

Canadian YoY mortality increase 2020 year of "pandemic" 0.04% same as previous two non-pandemic years.

Anyone have the 2021 global death rate and Canadian YoY data handy?

That's a simple way of seeing what is effective at unsafe.

The one thing that stands out for me is the “modeling” of data. They’ve been doing it since at least 1999 maybe even before.

Matt,

This great piece convinced me to renew and support you work. Well done.

I followed the LA County data religiously for most of 2020, then in early 2021 I got red pilled when I found the dark horse podcast and RFK Jr. LA County was manipulating the data back then, and so was CA at the state level. Nothing but BS with those so called "estimates," they just make things up as they go, reporters would ask questions at the end of their daily briefings, and the officials would just dance around it. I tried for months to have honest discussions with the people in my circle, but people just follow blindly, and even when they suspect it's BS, they still go and get vaccinated. Just like what you said about people in SD, they are too busy working to pay attention. The Trump hate in Los Angeles is hilarious, too, but there are way more Trump supporters than anyone realizes, they're all just afraid to admit it because they feel outnumbered. It's not a myth that people in Los Angeles are fake and shallow. I left Los Angeles last month and moved to Idaho. Can't wait to see what real Americans are about.

If nothing else it shows the vaccines don’t work. If they did the boosted group would be at zero percent.

Vermont has been doing this all along. They say that 100% of 70 and up are at least double jabbed - well, in our potluck group and in our tiny town, we know over 10 people alone over 70 that haven't taken one jab. They then show all their statistics as a per 100,000 population and the denominator is false. Everyday I learn of more people in Vermont that haven't taken any shots so it is clear their statistics are not correct.

Outstanding digging.

Obviously there are quite a few people involved in this scam... so I am struggling to understand why they go along with what is clearly a failed and deadly 'vaccine'.

I think vaccine injuries are covered up (including by those who are injured) because people believe that they are collateral damage in the war against 'a virus that could wipe us off the planet'...

But this is different. They are defending - by the use of outright fraud - these kill shots... and they are outright lying by claiming it's a pandemic of the vaxxed.

Yes it might be 'their salaries depend on them committing fraud' but I am sure this is happening across America (and the world) so how is it that not a single person is blowing the whistle.

Have then been convinced that what they are doing is the right thing... that to not do this would result in a far more worse outcome?

What could they fear so much that would make them willing participants in what is mass murder.
