THE MARK OF THE COVID BEAST


First and foremost I am a Christian. I am also a Conservative American. I am a free man. I have lived in San Diego my entire life and my roots can be traced back at least 6 generations here. I am happily married and I have 4 children. You may be asking yourself, “Why did he just tell us all of this about himself?” The reason is that I want you to know I am speaking from the stand point of a father, husband, Christian, Conservative, a 6 generation San Diegan and a free American.
            There are five things I wish to cover in this article. First being my stance on the Corona Virus. Second, how our lives have changed since the pandemic. Third, my opinion on Vaccines. Fourth, what the future holds now that so much has changed. And lastly, what we should do as both Americans and Christians.
            My stance on this Caronavirus may seem unpopular, but believe it or not, there are a lot of Americans who hold the same views as I do. I had written a more in depth article regarding my stance about a month ago. I do not wish to just copy and paste the entire article to substantiate my beliefs. Instead, I have chosen 3 of the most important arguments in favor of my case. When I began writing the article, I was under the impression that the virus was a little worse than the seasonal flu. Half way through writing the paper, I changed my stance and was convinced that the virus was just like the seasonal flu. When I finished writing the paper, I changed my stance for the last time and am now convinced that the seasonal flu is actual more worse than the Coronavirus.
My first argument in my paper was in response to those who claimed that you cannot compare the Virus to the Seasonal Flu because the deaths per infection rate is far greater for the virus. “The Seasonal Flu death per infection is 0.1% while the Coronavirus is 1.5%.” This argument from my opponent holds no authority because their numbers cannot be trusted. To show you why they cannot be trusted, we must start at the beginning. When and where did the virus start?
            It was on November 17, 2019 in China that the first Covid-19 case was confirmed (11). Hear me when I say this because that was the first confirmed case does not mean that November 17, 2019 was the start date of the Virus. He was not patient zero. My opponents wish to claim that the virus is more dangerous then the seasonal flu because of how insanely fast the virus spreads, and yet, the Chinese government wants us to believe that from November 17 to the first day of 2020, there were only 38 cases. Common sense and logic would say otherwise. (11).
Another point to be made is that Doctors were not able to accurately test in the
beginning. On January 17, 2020, there was a press briefing with the CDC where a reporter, Mike Stable, stated and asked, the “CDC is trying to develop the diagnostic test to determine the virus, but when you all will be screening people, you’ll be looking at symptoms. You wont be able to actually test for the virus, is that correct?”
            Dr. Nancy Messonnier, director of the CDC’s National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Disease, responded with, “We actually do have a laboratory diagnostics here at CDC that are stood up. The first diagnostic that we’d be relying on is based on sequence. Our colleagues in China…identified this pathogen and put that sequence up where it’s publicly available to all scientists. That is how our colleagues in Japan and Thailand identified cases. They compared the sequences that they found in their patients to the sequence that the Chinese collaborators posted. So we at the CDC also have the ability to do that today, but we are working on a more specific diagnostic” (12).
            As you can see, our tests were not accurate until February (13). This tells us that whatever numbers we had until accurate tests arose cannot be fully trusted. It is by these very numbers that the models distinguishing the deaths per infection, but now you have seen reason to CONSIDER questioning these models.
            Allow me to give you more evidence for why I find myself, and many others for that matter, believing that the mortality rate for the Coronavirus is .01%.
            Two professors of medicine at Stanford, Dr. Bendavid and Dr. Bhattacharya have critiqued the proposed models that so many have followed and instead offer their own. “The epidemic started sometime in November…the first confirmed U.S. case included a person who traveled from Wuhan on January 15th, but it is likely that the virus entered before that: tens of thousands of people traveled from Wuhan to the U.S. in December. Existing evidence suggests that the virus is highly transmissible and that the number of infections doubles roughly every three days. An epidemic seed on January1st implies that by March 9 about 6 million people in the U.S. would have been infected. As of March 23 according to the CDC, there were 499 Covid-19 deaths in the U.S. If our surmise of 6 million cases is accurate, that’s a mortality rate of .01% assuming a two-week lag between infection and death. This is one-tenth of the flu mortality rate of 0.1%.”
            Another critique of the popular models that so much fear has been based upon comes from Professor of Theoretical Epidemiology Sunatra Gupta and her team from Oxford University on March 24th.  They suggest that “up to 68% of the population may have already been infected with the virus – many without knowing it. Professor Gupta…has suggested that… only through testing for antibodies can real certainty about rates of infections be obtained” (14). As I write this article on April 24th the antibody tests have already begun. Researchers at Stanford Medicine tested 3,200 people in the Bay Area.
Victor Davis Hanson with the Stanfords Hoover Institute said, “When you add it all up it would be naïve to think that California did not have some exposure.” Hanson went onto say that “the Chinese government has been disingenuous about the timing of their initial outbreak of Covid-19. ‘They originally said it was in early January, then it got backdated to December and then early December and now they are saying as early as November 17’” (15).
On April 22, 2020 Buzzfeed released an article titled, “Two Antibody Studies Say Coronavirus Infections Are More Common than We Think. Scientists Are Mad.” “In Silicon Valley, the true number of coronavirus infections could be 50 to 85% times higher than the number of reported ones. And in Los Angeles County, there might be 28 to 55 times more people infected then the official count.
            “The numbers, covered in the national press and shared widely across social media, suggested that far more people than previously realized have ‘hidden’ infections. If that many people have already gotten sick, it also changes the calculation about how frequently the virus can lead to death. In the U.S., death rates number driven in part by ‘lack of diagnostic testing.’
            “But the new numbers out of Northern California suggests the virus may kill a much smaller position of the wider pool of diagnosed and undiagnosed cases, in this case around .12% to 0.2%. That would be closer to the death rate for the flu, which is about 0.1%” (16).
            My last piece of evidence in support of my claims was recently released accidently. There was a “hot mic” on the press conference floor before the press conference began.  The following is the dialogue between two individuals (a reporter and photographer) discussing the number of cases in California. “USC and LA County public health came out with a study that found that there are 7,000 cases in CA but they really believe there are anywhere from 210,000 to 442,000 people who were infected” (17).
            In conclusion, you had said the Coronavirus death per infection is 1.5%. That is incorrect for 4 reasons.
                  1.      The models can’t be trusted because they didn’t consider those who were infected prior to testing.
                  2.      The number of deaths are incorrect and were manipulated
                  3.      The antibody tests have revealed that more people had the virus than previously calculated
                  4.      The press was talking about the numbers of infections being manipulated to bring up the deaths per infections

Conclusion, you cannot deny these findings. If you cannot admit that the death rate per infection is inaccurate, then you are willingly lost.

            My second argument in favor of my stance is in response to the people that say that “this virus has taken the lives of both old and young, healthy and unhealthy alike. And you cannot compare this to the seasonal flu that only kills those whose immune systems are compromised.”
This is an interesting argument. It presupposes that every death recorded is viable and accurate and beyond a shadow of a doubt. All I would need to do is shed some doubt on the validity of these causes of death and the premise loses its authority. Thus, I have two examples I wish to use regarding this topic.
            The first is brought to us by Candace Owens, a Conservative political activist and commentator. On the first of April, Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont announced “the first pediatric fatality in Connecticut linked to Covid-19.” Candace Owens responded to what the Governor stated by saying, “‘Linked to Covid-19’ What the hell does that mean? Did the newborn have pre-existing conditions – yes or no? Did the infant die of Coronavirus – yes or no? STOP with this political double speak. Scaring mothers of newborns with partial information is SCUM BEHAVIOR.  ‘Complicated by’  ‘Linked to’ has anybody else realized that ALL of these death announcements provide partial information? If you are going to start using the death of infants to scare people into doing what you want, you better start providing Full information, [Gov. Lamont].”

            It turns out, the infant’s death had nothing to do with Covid-19. It was a horrible accident at home (8).
            Another example that should cause doubt regarding the validity of these supposed Covid-19 deaths comes from the mouth of Dr. Deborah Birx. She is the Doctor standing beside  President Trump and Dr. Fauci in the press conferences you have been watching. She said, “The federal government is classifying the deaths of patients infected with the Coronavirus as Covid-19 deaths, regardless of any underlying health issues that could have contributed to the loss of someone’s life” (9). Right here you have a confession from the response coordinator for the White House coronavirus task force—the  same people that give you the number of “Covid” deaths. 
            An even stronger rebuttal to this argument comes from an article published by the San Diego Union Tribune on January 17, 2018, regarding the flu epidemic that year, “younger people have not come through unscathed. An 18-year-old man and a 26-year-old woman, both unvaccinated, but with no other health problems, have died in what county officials and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are now calling a flu epidemic” (10). I know not what else I can say except that it is true that people are dying from this virus, but the same goes for the seasonal flu. The main difference between this Virus and every other Seasonal flu is that we are watching this Virus under a microscope. Every death, every infection, every fever, cough, sneeze is being publicized. It is from this media publicity that so much fear has stemmed. Deaths and infections you would have never heard of are now front page news. This also serves as further evidence for my closing rebuttal to argument #5 because this virus was here in November, but no one noticed.
            My third argument in favor of my stance is in response to when those in favor of the severity of the Coronavirus say that “it is far different than the seasonal flu in that the symptoms are far more worse.”
The Media is quite vocal regarding the effects of this virus. The CDC gives full account to the symptoms of the Coronavirus and the Seasonal Flu. The symptoms for the seasonal flu range from a headache, congestion, sore throat, fatigue, body aches, fever, vomiting, shortness of breath, diarrhea, and yes… even death. It can also lead to pneumonia as I can personally attest to when my 2-year-old’s flu grew worse and lead to pneumonia. The symptoms of the Coronavirus are shortness of breath, cough, fatigue, fever, and even death.
            For the seasonal flu, those who are most affected are children, the elderly, and the immune compromised. For the Coronavirus, those most affected are the elderly and the immune compromised.
            Consider the testimonies from those who suffered from the Coronavirus and compare it to the Seasonal Flu:. I can give examples of those who had a fever for a week’s time, others who suffered from a cough and shortness of breath, or people who have been admitted to the ICU and fitted with ventilators, and even some who were crippled by pneumonia. A debate can go on for days. We must therefor agree that when looked with unbiased eyes… looking at the symptoms…with no tests given… you cannot tell the difference between the two.
            I have 8 other arguments in my other paper, but I believe these three will suffice for what we are talking about here. If you disagree with what I have said, please contact me with your rebuttals. I have tried, throughout all of my research, to have an open mind, to be consistent, and use only sources that are accepted by those who oppose my position. With that said, my premise is comprised of a few points, one being that this virus is no better than the Seasonal Flu.
            Since the virus, our lives have changed so much. We have had regulations thrust upon us. We have had rights taken away and closures of businesses and entertainment throughout the nation.
            We are forced to wear face masks in order to buy or sell products/services in stores. It has become illegal to refuse to wear a mask. We have been forced to stand six feet apart in public places and businesses have been forced to implement social distancing or be fined.
            Many of our rights have been taken away as well. Our freedom of assembly has been taken away because we have to socially distance ourselves. Our freedom of speech has been compromised. On Facebook, certain posts have been flagged and removed because they don’t correlate with what the media is purporting. I personally know Doctors who have been instructed not to take pictures of empty hospital parking lots. Our freedom to travel has also been suspended. Freedom of religion has been turned into online meetings.
            One of the biggest things affected by this virus is the effect on the economy and small businesses. The government has defined certain people and businesses as essential. Everyone who is not “essential” must shut down. Because of this and all the social distancing, the economy went into a self-imposed recession. Unemployment has sky rocketed. Americans have had to shut down their businesses and some have willingly lost their lives. Beaches and parks have also been shut down as well.
            All of this has happened because of the virus. Because of this Seasonal Flu. And yet, the worst is yet to come.
            What we have seen thus far is the blind willingness to obey whatever the Governors have ordered. This should make every American fear for his rights. Without a say on the matter, the Governors were able to take control of our lives and abolish our constitutional rights. The premise has been set, “give the Americans something to fear, and they will embrace the abolition of their rights and civil liberties in the guise of safety.” No doubt there are numerous conspiracy theories going around for what the future may hold, but I only want to focus on one. Mandatory Vaccines.
            Let me preface this by explaining my stance on Vaccines. For years their has been an ongoing debate between those who are Pro Vaxers and those who are Anti Vaxers. On the one side, you have those who are 100% Pro Vaccinators. They trust whatever the Doctors and the CDC says and they consider Anti Vaxers to be conspiracy theorists whose source of information comes from blogs, celebrities, and homeopathic wannabe Doctors. The Anti Vaccinators are people who believe that the ingredients for all the vaccines are harmful and that Doctors want to give out as many vaccines as they can because they get a Government kick-back. They think Pro-Vaxers are sheep, who wont do their own research. I am neither a Pro- or Anti- Vaccinator. I believe that if two Doctors disagree on something, then it is up to the patient to do his due diligence and research and weigh out the pros and cons. I also think that some vaccines have been very beneficial for our society like the Smallpox vaccine and the Polio vaccine. I have done extensive research on Vaccines while only using sources that the Pro-Vaxers would acknowledge as viable. I had done this research primarily because I am labeled by both sides of the argument as being their opposite. So the Pro-Vaxers call me an Anti-Vaxer and the Anti-Vaxers call me a Pro-Vaxer. Instead of copying and pasting my entire Vaccine article here, I will pick 3 of my most popular points made in the article.

      1.      Hepatitis A is a liver disease that is usually spread “when a person ingests fecal matter” (vaccines.gov). There are two reasons as to why I reject this vaccine. The first reason being that one of the ingredients used in this vaccine is MRC-5. This stands for “Medical Research Council 5, human diploid cells (cells containing two sets of chromosomes) derived from the normal lung tissues of a 14-week-old male fetus aborted for psychiatric reasons in 1966 in the United Kingdom” (http://vaccines.procon.org/view.resource.php?resourceID=005206). The MRC-5 cell strain is used to develop this currently available vaccine (http://www.historyofvaccines.org/content/articles/human-cell-strains-vaccine-development). I am morally against the use of such cells in a vaccine. Secondly, I reject the Hepatitis A vaccine because “there is a gap of medical knowledge in terms of predicting who will have an adverse reaction and who will not” (http://www.nvic.org/vaccines-and-diseases/Hepatitis-A.aspx). It is because of this absence of knowledge that I must deem this vaccine unsafe

     2.      In regards to the Pneumococcal Conjugate (PCV13) vaccine, I would not mind my children getting it. I know that the PCV13 vaccine only protects against 13 of the ninety plus pneumococcal bacteria, but seeing as to how the ingredients aren’t bad, I am fine with it. Although some may try to argue that aluminum phosphate adjuvant and formaldehyde are dangerous, I beg to differ. The amount of those ingredients present is not enough to be classified as toxic. For example, “studies have shown that for a newborn of average weight of 6 to 8 pounds, the amount of formaldehyde in their body is 50-70 times higher than the upper amount that they could receive from a single dose of a vaccine or from vaccines administered over time” (http://www.fda.gov/BiologicsBloodVaccines/SafetyAvailability/VaccineSafety). Also, the side effects of the vaccine are mild. Thus, I see no problem getting this vaccine.

      3.      I consider the Varicella vaccine (VAR), also known as the chickenpox vaccine, to be somewhat ridiculous. Although it is true that open sores makes someone vulnerable to other infections such as staff, it is unlikely that a child will have such a complication. The same argument that is used in defense of certain vaccines, “Only one in a million suffer from sever reactions to such-and-such vaccine” can also be used against vaccines such as this one. “Only one in 2.7 million people with chicken pox suffer from an extreme life threatening case.” Also, I must reject this vaccine if it is Varivax because both WI-38 human diploid lung fibroblast cells and MRC-5 cells are used in the vaccine. In addition, some severe and moderate side effects of the vaccine include seizures. Although these are very rare, again, they are as rare as someone dying form the virus or contracting staff. To my mind, the benefits of the vaccine do not outweigh the risks
.
Some of my main arguments for or against vaccines stems from logic and common sense. For example, Doctors want to say the side-affects of a specific vaccine is very rare, but at the same time, the severe side-effects of a specific virus like the Varicella are just as rare as the side effects of the Vaccine. Another thing to consider is that Doctors want to say they know what they are doing and that technology is very sophisticated now, more so than before, and a lot of these virus’ are now manageable. I was speaking with my Doctor a little while ago and I told them that I didn’t want a certain vaccine. They were shocked and said that I should trust them because they are a doctor. I said that if my child contracted this virus, I trust that the doctors would be able to take care of them because of how good they are… in order to disagree with my claim, they would have to say they are not that good… if they agree with my claim, they would have to respect my decision to reject the vaccine.
And now, while this vaccine war is going on, laws are being passed making it mandatory for children to get all the vaccines, despite religious convictions and health exceptions, to go to school. At first, they were allowing people to choose based upon personal convictions (religious, health, etc) but now there are no exemptions unless you think your child has serious underlying health issues, they will examine them by a board of Medical professionals. The vaccine argument moved from whether or not they are harmful, to whether or not it is American to force people to take Vaccines. Some Pro-Vaxers and Anti-Vaxers have united over this issue because this is an infringement on our rights. And yet, now that the Coronavirus has been classified as a pandemic,  those against mandatory vaccines will not be taken seriously. So now what happens? What does the future hold for us?
There are two things that are most disturbing about mandatory vaccines. Some people are skeptical if it is even possible for vaccines to be mandatory, but most of these people don’t have children so they are unaware of just how mandatory the vaccines are… both for public and private school. Conspiracy theorists are concerned that vaccines will become mandatory for everyone. Child and adult alike. For example, if you want to go to public places like grocery stores, walmarts, starbucks, etc, or if  you want to register your car or run your business, you will have to have all the vaccines. Some of you read this and laugh, but it was only a few days ago that you weren’t allowed to do any of these things listed without wearing a mask.
Mandatory vaccines, monitoring people who have the vaccines, digital information, all of these things and the theories surrounding Bill Gates go hand and hand. There are two things coming out of the Gate Foundation that should raise some eyes brows: “Vaccine Development and Surveillance” and “Digital Identity.”
“The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation funded a “pilot study, conducted by MIT and Rice University, into a potential vaccine delivery device that could ‘impart an invisible mark detectable by a smartphone,’ it was entirely theoretical and would not have been capable of tracking or monitoring.”
Digital Identity could involve “cloud based storage of a person’s medical records and personal identification documents—accessible only with the consent of the owner” (Dailymail).
      An invisible mark? Cloud based storage with personal medical information?  Digital Identity with a patent number 2020060606?
“Bill Gates, the Gates Foundation are in favor of developing digital certificates that would certify that individuals, American citizens, have an immunity to this virus and potentially other viruses going forward to then facilitate travel and work and so forth” (Dailywire.com).
Attorney General William Barrs response to this was, “I’m very concerned about the slippery slope in terms of continuing encroachments on personal liberty” (Dailywire.com).
The State Bar Group wants the Coronavirus vaccine to be mandatory, regardless of any objections. “Some Americans may push back Covid 19 Vaccinations for religious, philosophical or personal reasons…[but] for the sake of public health, mandatory vaccinations for Covid 19 should be required in the United States as soon as it is possible.” They defended this position by saying, “Mandatory vaccinations are supported by the authority of the state public power when the vaccinations are necessary to protect the health of the community” then the group goes on to cite 1905 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Jacobson v. Massachusetts (businessinsider.com).
I’m not trying to convince you that Bill Gates is the Anti Christ. I know a lot of people who actually believe that. All that I am trying to say is that Mandatory Vaccines for children and adults is very real and very possible. Please allow me to reiterate and summarize a list each of my points:



            1.      Within the past year there has been an ongoing debate about Mandatory Vaccines

             2.      Vaccines became Mandatory for children to go to school

            3.      The Coronavirus is just a Seasonal Flu

            4.      The Coronavirus gave the Governors authority that surpasses that of the Constitution. Whether we like it or not.

            5.      The economy crumbled People couldn’t buy or sell without wearing a mask and social distancing because they didn’t know who had the virus.

            6.      Vaccines have been made for the Coronavirus

            7.      Once  people have the Vaccine, we won’t need to worry about wearing masks and social distancing

            8.      The Gates Foundation has funded and created services that will help monitor those who have the vaccines

            9.      The State Barr wants to make the Coronavirus Mandatory despite personal reasons to decline

In conclusion, I wish my American people would wake up to what is happening around us. We are being manipulated and we are heading down a slippery slope that will inevitably force everyone to have a mark or some type of identification to show that we are fully vaccinated. Many Christians are somewhat “triggered” by the word “mark” in this type of context because Revelations talks about how you won’t be able to buy or sell unless you have the mark of the Beast which is 666. Who would have thought that in our modern times we wouldn’t have been able to buy or sell without a mask?
