No. WHO did not Order countries to stop doing lockdowns. Information blog.
Some people have said that the WHO expressly ordered countries to stop using lockdowns. This is Patently false.
This is what the Covid-19 envoy said last October. As usual what is being said here is a vast over simplification of what the hated org actually said.
But lets actually check what WHO's policy actually is on Lockdowns. I know you will be shocked at this, but they don't say stop using lockdowns
As you can see its a much more nuanced approached, recognizing that lockdowns are a damaging tool that are to be used wisely and when necessary. Not forbidden. India could be a case for a lockdown by that definition, so WHO would probably agree with someone like Eprib.
In any case, screaming that situations are all because of WHO banning Lockdowns is hilariously false.
This is what the Covid-19 envoy said last October. As usual what is being said here is a vast over simplification of what the hated org actually said.
In response to: A COVID-19 envoy appointed by Director-General of the World Health Organisation (WHO) Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus has appealed to world leaders to stop resorting to lockdown to control the pandemic.
Dr David Nabarro, who has spent his career working for the WHO and the United Nations (UN), seems to have marked a departure from the global health body’s early stance on the COVID-19 pandemic, warning about the economic and social consequences of lockdown as a means of controlling the spread of the disease.
On Sunday, Dr Nabarro appealed to world leaders to stop ‘using lockdowns as your primary control method’, insisting that such drastic measures can have a dire impact on global poverty rates.
Speaking to The Spectator, the British doctor stated: ‘We in the World Health Organisation do not advocate lockdowns as the primary means of control of this virus.
‘The only time we believe a lockdown is justified is to buy you time to reorganise, regroup, rebalance your resources, protect your health workers who are exhausted, but by and large, we’d rather not do it.’
Dr Nabarro went on to say that developing economies had been indirectly affected by lockdown measures, adding: ‘Just look at what’s happened to the tourism industry in the Caribbean, for example, or in the Pacific because people aren’t taking their holidays.
‘Look what’s happened to smallholder farmers all over the world — look what’s happening to poverty levels.
‘It seems that we may well have a doubling of world poverty by next year. We may well have at least a doubling of child malnutrition.’
Dr Nabarro continued: ‘Lockdowns just have one consequence that you must never ever belittle, and that is making poor people an awful lot poorer.

In response to: What is WHO’s position on ‘lockdowns’ as a way of fighting COVID-19?
Large scale physical distancing measures and movement restrictions, often referred to as ‘lockdowns’, can slow COVID-19 transmission by limiting contact between people.
However, these measures can have a profound negative impact on individuals, communities, and societies by bringing social and economic life to a near stop. Such measures disproportionately affect disadvantaged groups, including people in poverty, migrants, internally displaced people and refugees, who most often live in overcrowded and under resourced settings, and depend on daily labour for subsistence.
WHO recognizes that at certain points, some countries have had no choice but to issue stay-at-home orders and other measures, to buy time.
Governments must make the most of the extra time granted by ‘lockdown’ measures by doing all they can to build their capacities to detect, isolate, test and care for all cases; trace and quarantine all contacts; engage, empower and enable populations to drive the societal response and more.
WHO is hopeful that countries will use targeted interventions where and when needed, based on the local situation.

Monkey Pox
A must see!!!

The results are in..
Long story short: My cholesterol is too high, which means I will have to change my diet, as I suspected. That means limit my intake of sugar, cut down on the fat and generally be a healthier person. Maybe get rid of some of my weight will help as well.
So what now? Well.. Now I will have to revisit what I eat. Luckily I have a brand new cook book, which contains a LOT of healthy food, so I'm gonna have a look in that. I want to make food that is both filling and tasty, which hopefully will be easy to make. Cooking in general is pretty easy, if you know what you are doing.. Anyway..
Lower my cholesterol is my immediate goal, and I will do whatever it takes to get it done!

Rudy's stents...
About a month ago Rudy Giuliani claimed he was attacked while campaigning for his son inside a ShopRite store.
Security video revealed it was a tap on the back and nothing in comparison to what Rudy stated to the police and continued to support in some social media and video chats.
About a week later someone who was supporting Rudy as to the extent of his injury and stated he needed to undergo surgery to have a stent procedure.
I've heard nothing since.
That sounds like a trumped up B.S. story and I'm curious if anyone has heard more about Rudy and stents.
The only 'injury' he sustained was being called a scumbag!

Chancer's great solution
If you're scared of any variants, stay home until you feel safe
Otherwise live your life, and vote out any punkass politicians who are ruling by fear
This nonsense MUST end. But it won't until we make it abundantly clear that we won't accept the non-stop fear and anxiety being peddled by people who are either woefully inept to lead or who are irredeemably corrupt. ENOUGH!

Japanese Doctor on Fitness
Q: Doctor, I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life. Is this true?
A: Heart only good for so many beats, and that's it... Don't waste time on exercise. Everything wear out eventually. Speeding up heart saying you extend life of a car by driving faster. Want to live longer? - Take nap.
Q: Should I reduce my alcohol intake?
A: Oh no. Wine made from fruit. Fruit very good. Brandy distilled wine, that means they take water out of fruity bit so you get even more of goodness that way. Beer also made of grain. Grain good too. - Bottoms up!
Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise program
A: Can't think of one, sorry. My philosophy: No pain...very good!
Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you?
A: YOU NOT LISTENING! Food fried in vegetable oil. How can getting more vegetable be bad?
Q: Is chocolate bad for me?
A: You crazy?!? HEL-LO-O-O!! Cocoa bean! Another vegetable! It best feel-good food around.
Q: Is swimming good for your figure?
A: If swimming good for figure, explain whale to me.
Q: Is getting in shape important for my lifestyle?
A: Hey! 'Round' is also a shape!
Well... I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about food and diets.
Finally, the Japanese Doctor summed up: Look mister, Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Beer in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride my life was"!!!!!
Eat whatever you like because you will still DIE, don't allow motivational speakers deceive you.
1. The inventor of the treadmill died at the age of 54.
2. The inventor of gymnastics died at the age of 57.
3. The world bodybuilding champion died at the age of 41.
4. The best footballer in the world Maradona died at the age of 60.
BUT
5. The KFC inventor died at 94.
6. Inventor of Nutella brand died at the age of 88.
7. Imagine, cigarette maker Winston died at the age of 102.
8. The inventor of opium died at the age of 116 in an earthquake.
9. Hennessey Cognac inventor died at 98.
How did these doctors come to the conclusion that exercise prolongs life?The rabbit is always jumping up and down but it lives for only 2 years and the turtle that doesn’t exercise at all, lives 400 years.So, take some rest, Chill, stay cool, eat, drink, and enjoy your life.

So tell me again how catching covid gives a victim natural immunity , I like to laugh
Thousands of covid victims re infected with Omicron ,
one serious point is that its about 4 months worth of cover from vaccines . Any damn fool farmer knows that to treat animals with a therapy that has such a low effectiveness sooner or later that effectiveness is lost . The time that was bought with vaccines is being lost certainly for first world nations while Ivermec is being produced for third world countries .
A U.N.-backed agency has struck a deal for nearly 30 generic drugmakers to make low-cost versions of Merck & Co's COVID-19 pill molnupiravir for poorer nations, widening access to a drug seen as a weapon in fighting the pandemic.
The antiviral pill, which in December received emergency approval in the United States, reduces hospitalizations and deaths of high-risk patients by around 30%, according to clinical trial results.
The deal, negotiated by the U.N.-backed Medicines Patent Pool (MPP) with Merck, will expand output by increasing the number of companies that will produce the drug, after Merck entered into licensing agreements with eight Indian drugmakers in October.

I wonder at the intelligence of people who claim Ivermec does not work . What would somebodys motive be to say such a thing .

Sky News - Fauci funded Gain of Function research at Wuhan
This might be old news, but they've put it nicely together, while the US Luegenpresse has moved on from this exposed lie and atrocity.
