Sydney police shocking arrest of mom protesting lockdown as young son watches in horror. "Why is she under arrest? She's not done anything wrong?"

Vvia @ Twitter Avi Yemini:

News.Com AU Coronavirus Australia: Dramatic arrest of a mother protesting in Sydney shocks bystanders.

Two clips shared to Facebook depict the woman speaking with police officers near Parliament of New South Wales in Sydney's CBD at around 3.50pm on Saturday, then being dragged into a police van as her screaming son is torn from her arms.

Wearing a yellow sign that read: “If you don't know your rights, you don't have any. Magna Carta,” the woman was protesting with around 40 people against the coronavirus lockdown, as part of the “Exercising My Rights” group.

[.]
“You guys should be here holding the signs with us, defending us. I don't consent to what you're doing,” she said, as a female officer asked for her name.

“We’re doing nothing wrong … We’re not acting in aggression … Am I under arrest?,” she responded.

“No, I’m just trying to speak to you … I am asking for your name because I do believe you are committing an offence,” the officer explained.
[.]
Moments later in a second clip, the altercation took a turn for the worst as police are seen dragging the woman by her arms as her son wails and passers-by object.
[.]
A group of protesters walked along Macquarie Street on Saturday to “exercise their rights” during the global health crisis.

According to the “Exercising My Rights” Facebook page and website, the protests are about the negative consequences of lockdown.

“These lockdowns have stripped us of our basic liberties in an unprecedented way,” the website reads.

“People have lost their jobs, their businesses destroyed, and who knows how many lives will be lost from the consequences of these extreme social-distancing laws.

“But … the laws in NSW, Australia, do allow me to go out and get some exercise. So, that’s what I’m going to do.["]

“The child was removed from the woman’s hold and she was taken to Surry Hills Police Station, where her identity was established, and she was issued an infringement notice for fail to comply with noticed direction in relation to COVID-19. (Oh, the "infringement" or citation couldn't have been done on site, no...no...we need a performance of Covid-19 Enforcement Theater. - DD)

“The child was placed in the care of a relative and the Department of Family and Community Services were notified.”

Little Richard, dead; age 87.

BBC: Little Richard : Rock 'n' roll pioneer dies.

Pioneering rock 'n' roll singer Little Richard has died at the age of 87, the musician's family has confirmed.

Little Richard's hits included Good Golly Miss Molly, which made the UK charts in 1958. The Beatles, Elton John and Elvis all cited him an influence.

The singer, born in Georgia as Richard Wayne Penniman, was among the first group inductees into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1986.
[.]
If there had been no Little Richard, a key part of DNA would have been missing from acts like The Beatles, Bob Dylan, David Bowie and Jimi Hendrix - all of whom idolised him.

With the likes of Chuck Berry and Elvis, he was one of the handful of US acts who concocted the primordial soup of blues, R&B and gospel that led to the evolution of rock 'n' roll in the 60s.
[.]
His father was a preacher who also ran a nightclub, and his mother was a devout Baptist.

"I was born in the slums. My daddy sold whiskey, bootleg whiskey," he told Rolling Stone in 1970.

The singer left home in his teens after disagreements with his father - who initially didn't support his music.

"My daddy wanted seven boys, and I had spoiled it, because I was gay," the showman later said.

Though openly homosexual for many years, Richard also had relationships with women. He married Ernestine Harvin, a fellow Evangelical, and later adopted a son.

His commitment to depravity extended to drugs, boozing and sex parties - to which he would take his Bible.

Richard's complex attitude to his sexuality meant he was never embraced as a gay icon. Later in life he became a born-again Christian and renounced homosexuality, framing it as a temporary choice he had made.

The Rolling Stones, who opened shows for him, spoke reverently of his on-stage prowess. "Little Richard drove the whole house into a complete frenzy," Mick Jagger once said. "There is no single phrase to describe his hold on the audience."
[.]
"I've always thought that rock 'n' roll brought the races together," [Richard] once told an interviewer. "Although I was black, the fans didn't care. I used to feel good about that."

1 in 4 Americans says they would refuse COVID-19 vaccine, poll says

WFTS ABC Tampa Bay: 1 in 4 Americans says they would refuse COVID-19 vaccine.

[According to a new ABC News/Ipsos released Friday]...Those Americans who are opposed to getting a vaccine, experts say, often fall into one of two categories. But, unlike most things in American politics and concerning the coronavirus outbreak, those groups are not partisan in nature, with about equal proportions of Democrats and Republicans saying they were likely to get the vaccine.

"There's always been an anti-vaccine group of individuals that are going to refuse vaccines no matter what," said Dr. Carlos del Rio, an infectious disease expert, and a professor of medicine, epidemiology and global health at Emory University. "The question is, how do they impact other people."

Not that I put faith in polls...just taking note of the Covid-19  anti-Vax crowd. Add me as skeptical and declining it as well. Would you get vaccinated for Covid-19?

San Francisco delivers alcohol, tobacco and teh pot to quarantined addicts.

Omaha.com (AP): San Francisco gets alcohol, tobacco for addicts in hotels.

San Francisco is using private donations to deliver alcohol, tobacco and medical marijuana to a few dozen people dealing with addiction as they isolate or quarantine in city-leased hotel rooms during the pandemic, officials confirmed Wednesday.

There are about 270 people, mostly homeless, staying in hotel rooms to recover from COVID-19 or to wait out possible exposure to the virus. Nearly a dozen people have received alcohol and more than two dozen have received tobacco, the San Francisco Chronicle reported.

City officials said that private donations pay for the items, and that helping manage nicotine, opioid and alcohol cravings ensures that recovering people don't go out and possibly infect others.

Dr. Grant Colfax, San Francisco's public health director, said the harm-reduction approach is widespread and based on decades of sound public health policy.

"...decades of sound public health policy." Okay, then.

Andrew Cuomo: Out-of-state crisis volunteers will pay taxes.

Forbes: Andrew Cuomo Confirms New York Will Tax Out-Of-State Volunteer Health Workers.

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo (D) made news this week when he confirmed that the Empire State plans to send an income tax bill to out-of-state health care workers who came to New York City to help treat coronavirus patients. Governor Cuomo’s remarks, in which he referred to the prospect of not taxing out-of-state volunteer health workers as a “subsidy,” indicate that he would reconsider this approach only if the federal government sends more money to New York.

Dr. Bing Liu murdered over 'long-running love triangle feud'.

Daily Mail: Coronavirus researcher, 37, on the verge of releasing 'significant findings' was shot and killed in a murder-suicide by software engineer over a 'long-running love triangle feud'.

A married coronavirus researcher who died in an apparent-murder suicide may have been involved in a long-term love triangle with his alleged killer, police say.

Dr Bing Liu, 37, was found dead with gunshot wounds to the head, neck and torso at his home in the suburb of Ross Township on Saturday afternoon.

Ross Township police said another man, identified as 46-year-old software engineer Hao Gu, entered Liu's home through an unlocked door and opened fire before going back to his car parked 100 yards away and turning the gun on himself.

On Wednesday investigators revealed that they believe the attack was motivated by a 'lengthy dispute regarding an intimate partner'.

The investigators did not offer any additional details about how Liu and Gu knew each other, nor did they say who they believe the 'intimate partner' is.

Police said neither of the men were US citizens, so their findings are being forwarded to federal authorities. 

They also reiterated that there is 'zero evidence' to suggest that the killing had anything to do with the coronavirus research Liu was doing with the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.
[.]
'Bing was on the verge of making very significant findings toward understanding the cellular mechanisms that underlie SARS-CoV-2 [COVID-19] infection and the cellular basis of the following complications,' the statement read.

Liu is survived by his wife and parents, who still live in China.

Gov. Cuomo welcomes Bill Gates and the Gates Foundation as public school overlords.

Yeah...Gates is the guy to solve defects in the educational system. He he has the "blueprint". 

The public school system can learn much from college dropout Bill Gates, who stole the DOS operating system (originally CP/M), whose vaccine killed thousands in India and whose entire lifetime of MS Win OS contained vulnerabilities inviting hacking, screen freeze, crashing and, of course, "turning it off and on again" to restore its functionality...sometimes...maybe, if the planets were all in the required alignment and high tide was at just the right amplitude.

Read through NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo thread @ NYGovCuomo:

Look, Gates is no Aristotle or Jonas Salk. He never will be. Not even close. Whatever he says on any issue, at best, can be interpreted as a casual observation and quickly dismissed; certainly nothing ever seriously considered and practiced in health, medicine and education.

Liberty Counsel: Kansas City Repeals Name Gathering Order.

Liberty Counsel broke the story after being contacted by concerned pastors. The story went viral quickly and now, as a result of the public outcry over this unconstitutional provision, Kansas City reversed the Fourth Amended Order and issued a Fifth Amended Order on May 4. Under the new order released yesterday, the recording of names and contact information is no longer mandatory. The Fifth Amended Order encourages religious groups to record names and contact information, but it is now voluntary. (Here comes KC's "we pay snitches" program. - DD)
[.]
The amended order now states: “Attendees are not required, however, to provide their names or contact information at any religious gathering.” The recording of names and contact information was also removed from the other “non-essential” operations. However, the Fifth Amended Order still imposes the 10/10/10 rule and no more than 50-person limit on outside religious gatherings, the latter of which is not imposed on any secular gathering.
[.]
["]Due to the overwhelming public outcry, the Kansas City Mayor reversed course and removed this unconstitutional provision. That is the good news. The bad news which Kansas City must still remedy is the continued unconstitutional treatment of churches and houses of worship compared to other secular gatherings," [said] Liberty Counsel Founder and Chairman Mat Staver.

Dr. Bing Liu, Chinese coronavirus researcher, 37, at University of Pittsburgh Medical Center is killed in murder-suicide while on verge of 'significant findings'.

Daily Mail: Mystery as Chinese coronavirus researcher, 37, at University of Pittsburgh Medical Center is killed in murder-suicide while on verge of 'significant findings'.

A well-respected University of Pittsburgh Medical Center researcher was said to have been on the verge of 'very significant findings' related to the coronavirus when police say he was killed in an apparent murder-suicide.

Dr Bing Liu, 37, was alone at his home in the 200 block of Elm Court in Ross Township on Saturday afternoon when another man - identified as 46-year-old Hao Gu - allegedly entered the residence through an unlocked door and opened fire.

Liu was struck by bullets in the head, neck and torso, and died of his injuries.

His wife was not home at the time of the homicide, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported. The couple do not have children. 

Police said Gu then returned to his car parked 100 yards away at Charlemagne Circle and turned the gun on himself.

According to police, Liu and Gu knew each other prior to the murder-suicide, but they would not elaborate on the nature of their relationship, or speculate about a motive.

Nothing was reported missing from Liu's home, and police said there is no danger to the public, reported KDKA.

Liu was a research assistant professor in UPMC's Computational and Systems Biology Department, according to a statement released by his employer announcing his untimely death.

'Bing was on the verge of making very significant findings toward understanding the cellular mechanisms that underlie SARS-CoV-2 [COVID-19] infection and the cellular basis of the following complications,' the statement read. 'We will make an effort to complete what he started in an effort to pay homage to his scientific excellence.'

We need more details on Hao Gu, and we need them fast.

Does the timing and manner of Dr. Liu's murder, and the suicide of his killer, seem suspicious, or is it just me? Gu enters the home through an unlocked door and kills Liu. This doesn't appear random or coincidental.

Liberty Counsel: Churchgoers Must Register With the Government in Kansas City.

Kansas City, Missouri, officials are now requiring every church to submit a list of members and attendees along with their names, addresses and telephone numbers to city officials for tracking and surveillance purposes.

I am running out of adjectives to describe how completely insane the tyrannical abuses launched by state governors and local officials against pastors and churches are becoming. It is as if these leaders never bothered to so much as glance at the Constitution they swore to uphold and defend. They seem to be governing from some make-believe, dystopian viewpoint.

Yesterday, we received a desperate call from a Kansas City, Missouri, church whose local government is reaching new and terrifying heights in destroying our constitutional freedom. The Kansas City government is now DEMANDING that churches turn over membership lists, along with the names, telephone numbers and physical addresses of anyone who enters a church! This order also applies to all businesses.

The new order states that by recording names and contact information, the health department will be able “to more quickly trace, test, and isolate individuals who may have been exposed to COVID-19.” Anyone who does not provide this information should be refused entrance!

The Germans did this very thing to Jews – collecting the names and locations of all known synagogue attendees - in the early days of the Nazi regime.

Where is the normally loud "separation of Church and State" crowd in all of this? Surely there must be...3 or...4 of them who attend places of worship. This should not only offend them, but scare them.

Have mosques and other places of worship received the same "request" from the Kansas City Politburo? Have leaders of other denominations spoken up in defense of, advocating on behalf of, and aligning themselves with, Liberty Counsel?

This is my opinion, and only my opinion: In instances like those described in the Liberty Counsel letter, the best - and only - response to any government agency requesting this type of information is: "We have turned these matters over to our attorneys and they will be in contact with you."

Leaked ‘Five Eyes’ dossier on alleged Chinese coronavirus coverup consistent with US findings.

FOX News (right click on link and open in new window): Leaked ‘Five Eyes’ dossier on alleged Chinese coronavirus coverup consistent with US findings, officials say.

A research dossier compiled by the so-called “Five Eyes” intelligence alliance, that reportedly concludes China intentionally hid or destroyed evidence of the coronavirus pandemic, is consistent with U.S. findings about the origins of the outbreak so far, senior U.S. officials told Fox News on Saturday.

The 15-page document from the intelligence agencies of the U.S., Canada, the U.K., Australia and New Zealand, was obtained by Australia's Saturday Telegraph newspaper and finds that China's secrecy amounted to an “assault on international transparency."
[.]
While U.S. intelligence is not confirming the existence of the 15-page document, a senior official told Fox that reports of the document aligns with U.S. intelligence that China knew the spread between humans earlier than it said, that it knew it was a novel coronavirus earlier than it said and that it was spread wider than they reported to the international community in the first weeks of the outbreak.

But there are some exceptions. In particular, Australia believes the virus originated in a wet market, as the Chinese have claimed. However,  the U.S. intelligence community has not yet determined this and is still leaning away from that theory.
[.]
The source told Fox that the reports show "how duplicitous the Chinese have been" in regard to information about the origins and spread of the virus and that "the impact of their secrecy has really shaken our allies."

“Everyone is furious with the Chinese,” the source said,

The new “Five Eyes” dossier finds that China began censoring news of the virus on search engines and social media beginning Dec. 31, deleting terms including “SARS variation," “Wuhan Seafood market” and “Wuhan Unknown Pneumonia.”

Three days later, on Jan. 3, China’s National Health Commission ordered virus samples to be either moved to designated testing facilities or destroyed, while simultaneously issuing a "no-publication order" related to the disease.
[.]
The dossier also concludes that Chinese authorities denied that the virus could be spread between humans until Jan. 20, "despite evidence of human-human transmission from early December."

The file is similarly critical about the World Health Organization (WHO), stating that it toed the Chinese line about human-to-human transmission despite the fact that "officials in Taiwan raised concerns as early as December 31, as did experts in Hong Kong on January 4.”

How long before Bill Gates takes center stage at another symposium shilling for China, telling us what a fine job they did at the beginning of this outbreak?

Adam Schiff wants Big Tech to snitch on you and censor you.

Washington Times: Schiff suggests Google, YouTube and Twitter notify users who engaged with coronavirus misinformation.

Rep. Adam B. Schiff has asked Google, YouTube and Twitter to consider following Facebook protocol in alerting users who interacted on their platforms with misinformation involving the coronavirus pandemic.

The congressman’s office released letters Thursday that Mr. Schiff, the chair of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, wrote to the heads of the companies this week.

Citing the presence of coronavirus-related misinformation on their platforms, Mr. Schiff suggested the companies adopt a practice similar to Facebook and proactively notify users who engaged on their platforms with harmful medical content involving the continuing outbreak.
[.]
“Though the best protection is removing or downgrading harmful content before users engage with it, that is not always possible,” Mr. Schiff wrote in the letters.
[.]
“I recognize the complex challenges that misinformation presents to online platforms,” Mr. Schiff added. “As we all grapple with this unprecedented health situation, I hope you will consider this suggestion for keeping users better informed.”

The letters were dated Wednesday and sent to Sundar Pichai, the chief executive officer of Google’s parent company Alphabet, as well as YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki and Twitter CEO Jason Dorsey.

When I read the LARGE lettered sentence from Schiff, am I the only one who pictures a WWII High-Ranking, Overachieving German Officer puffing away at a cigarette he is tightly holding between his thumb and forefinger, saying:

"I hope you vill conzider theez suggestion for keeping uz better invormed !"

Tim Walz unleashes his inner-Mussolini. Extends "Shelter" to May 18; lets children die.

Timmy Mussolini

Bring Me The News: Walz extends Stay at Home order till May 18.

Gov. Tim Walz has confirmed that Minnesota's Stay at Home order will continue for a further two weeks, extending it until May 18.

The governor announced his decision at a Thursday press conference, but with it comes some changes that will allow all Minnesota's retail businesses and other non-critical businesses to operate curbside operations.

Until now, it's has been retailers selling essential items such as food, alcohol and building materials that have been allowed to stay open, a move that has predominantly benefited larger stores.

Alpha News: Walz Covid Response lets children die (my headline interpretation, not Alpha).

In the wake of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz’s ban on elective procedures, doctors have been forced to delay life changing operations for sick children.

Normally, surgeries to fix partially obstructed arteries, remove some kinds of cancerous tumors or excise an infected gallbladder occur on a daily basis in Minnesota’s prestigious hospitals like the Mayo Clinic. However, since Walz banned so-called non essential procedures amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, doctors have been forced to use nonsurgical techniques in lieu of otherwise straightforward operations, says the Star Tribune (ST). This has put some patients at risk of lifelong injury.

Gillette Children’s Specialty Healthcare in St. Paul works with kids suffering from complex health problems. This one hospital alone has been forced to cancel over 10,000 operations as Walz seeks to trade routine medical care for increased coronavirus testing capacity.

Dr. Tenner Guillaume who works at Gillette told the ST that while some non essential surgeries can be safely delayed, postponing other procedures may have lifelong health impacts on the children under his care.

Walz is just carrying out orders dictated to him by Big Liberal Politburo. Why, during this shutdown, can I buy T-shirts at Wal Mart but not the Indie store on Main Street? WTF difference does it make?

Would Walz like to decide who lives and dies during his continuing "Lockdown"? Hell talk big and loud about how much he cares about "everyone." He's beholden to the academic and political institutions and their whims and attempts at social engineering.

If you're not part of The Walz Club...you're a rock and a cow.

It is not immediately clear who authored the note, but Fox News reported it was written by former FBI general counsel James A. Baker.

NY Gov. Cuomo wishes he'd had a bugle to blow in December.

The Guardian (via MSN): Andrew Cuomo wishes he 'blew the bugle' on coronavirus earlier.

New York’s governor, Andrew Cuomo, has said he wishes he had “blown the bugle” about Covid-19 earlier.
[.]
“When we heard in December that China had a virus problem,” he said, “and China said basically, ‘It was under control, don’t worry,’ we should’ve worried.

“When China says, ‘Don’t worry, I have a fire in my backyard,’ you don’t hang up the phone and go back to sleep, right? You get out of your house and you walk two houses over to make sure I have the fire under control. Where was every other country walking out of their home to make sure China had it under control?”

Cuomo added: “I wish someone stood up and blew the bugle. And if no one was going to blow the bugle, I would feel much better if I was a bugle blower last December and January ... I would feel better sitting here today saying, ‘I blew the bugle about Wuhan province in January.’ I can’t say that.”

Typical Liberal...do nothing proactive. Wait until chaos hits then be reactive.

Cuomo didn't have any foresight into taking any action on his own? He had to wait to be told? Why did he believe China's "don't worry"? Why did he believe "China had it under control"?

What if he had been "told" or warned to "do something" in December? Do you think Cuomo and NYC Mayor Kaiser Wilhelm would have taken any steps to protect the public? Would they have canceled the Times Square New Year's Eve Countdown? Not for a second - - - too much revenue, too much political backlash.

What do you think the reaction would have been had President Trump cautioned Cuomo and Wilhelm to cancel New Year's Eve in Times Square? Do you think they would have listened to him? I don't. They would have told him to "butt out", "don't be telling New York what it should or shouldn't be doing."

So Cuomo knew "something" was up in December yet did nothing to protect the people of his state. Sounds like he heard about a fire in China, hung up the phone and went back to sleep.

Now, he wishes he'd had a bugle to blow. I'm sure many New Yorkers are quite happy to today tell Cuomo what he can blow.

Washington Examiner: Cuomo's fourth term.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo is set to cruise into a fourth four-year term as governor of New York, a feat no Democrat has ever accomplished in the state.

I have a terribly low supply of sympathy for people who continue to cut themselves and then whine that they're bleeding and why won't someone help me?

If Cuomo and Wilhelm smelled smoke and suspected a fire, and did nothing about it - which is what they did - it's no surprise now that both are blaming Trump and the federal government for not acting sooner.

Kaiser Wilhelm was telling people in March to still go out on the town.

This is the standard operating procedure for Liberals: BLAME OTHERS FOR THEIR FAILURES.

New York, you're going to put Cuomo in office for another four years? Please don't whine to the rest of the country as you slide further into the depths of madness. I can't garner much sympathy for people who continue sitting in filthy, dirty bathwater and don't have the common sense to get out of the tub on their own.

Consider this a Bugle Blowing Warning Alert.

You Tube removes Covid-19 video of Doctors Dan Erickson and Artin Massihi of Accelerated Urgent Care.

You Tube has removed the video featuring Doctors Dan Erickson and Artin Massihi. Both appeared earlier tonight on FOX News' Laura Ingraham. At the end of the program Ingraham announced she just learned You Tube removed their video.

The doctors felt, based on actual data - (DATA?!?!? Oh noooo....and data contrary to the 'WE BOW TO FAUCI PRO-CHINA VIRUS WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE CROWD') - that Covid-19 didn't justify the massive economic shutdown and the fallout from it. They didn't fit the narrative of The Left and their FakeStream allies, so YT/Gulag censored their video.

If you haven't read about them, here's some background:

Doctors Dan Erickson and Artin Massihi, both licensed California physicians and co-owners of Accelerated Urgent Care in Bakersfield, were praised in a tweet by Elon Musk on Sunday for making "good points" and will appear on "The Ingraham Angle" with Laura Ingraham on Fox News tonight.

The original video ran approximately 55 minutes. I found a 4-minute clip at Stand Up 911:

SafeSide wins! Ralphie Northam loses! Judge rules Virginia gun range can open amid virus closures.

WJLA: Judge rules Virginia gun range can open amid virus closures.

A judge has ruled that a Virginia gun range must be allowed to open to customers despite a statewide executive order requiring nonessential businesses to close to slow the spread of the coronavirus.

The order issued Monday by Lynchburg Circuit Judge F. Patrick Yeatts says federal and state protections on the right to bear arms outweigh any emergency authority held by Gov. Ralph Northam to order the gun range closed.

The SafeSide gun range in Lynchburg filed the lawsuit challenging the governor’s executive order, along with Gun owners of America, the Virginia Citizens Defense League and the Association of Virginia Gun Ranges.

Biden To Hold "Virtual Women's Town Hall".

This sounds fun! Biden+Virtual Town Hall! What could go wrong?

Daily Caller: Joe Biden To Hold ‘Virtual Women’s Town Hall’ Amid Sexual Assault Allegations.

2020 presidential candidate Joe Biden will host a virtual women’s town hall with a special guest Tuesday as new reports have surfaced backing up the claims that he sexually assaulted a female staffer when he was a senator.

The Biden campaign sent out an email Monday, saying: “On Tuesday, April 28, Joe Biden and a special guest will hold a virtual town hall on the impact of COVID-19 on women.” The email added: “Tentative Start Time: 3:00 PM ET.”

Judge rules against Illinois DEM Gov. Pritzker's continuing stay-at-home orders.

Illinois Review: Judge rules in Rep. Bailey's favor, against Gov Pritzker's continuing Stay-at-Home orders.

BREAKING: Clay County Circuit Court Judge Michael McHaney ruled in favor of State Rep. Darren Bailey against Governor Pritzker's extended executive order Monday. McHaney granted a restraining order to temporarily block Pritzker's continuing stay-at-home order set for May 1st. The governor's current order is to remain in place. Governor says Illinois Attorney General is preparing to appeal.

And Gov. Pritzker's response:

Is Stockholm close to herd immunity?

Daily Mail: Lockdown-free Stockholm 'could achieve herd immunity in May': Claim by Swedish ambassador as she reveals 30% of the city's population already have immunity.

Sweden, whose softer approach to combating coronavirus has gained attention across the world, could have achieved herd immunity in its capital Stockholm by May, the country's ambassador to the US has claimed.

Karin Ulrika Olofsdotter told the US's National Public Radio (NPR) that 'about 30 per cent of people in Stockholm have reached a level of immunity.' 

Sweden has now reported 18,926 coronavirus cases, with 2,274 deaths.

On Monday, 286 new cases and 80 deaths were announced, down from 463 cases yesterday, although there were just two deaths on Sunday. 

Ms Olofsdotter added: 'We could reach herd immunity in the capital as early as next month.'
[.]
Sweden's national board of health looked at 1,700 cause of death certificates to get a better idea of deaths related to Covid-19.

Their statistics show that 90 per cent of those who died were over 70 and half were over 86, with just one per cent under 50.

Most of those who died had one or more risk factors, including: high blood pressure (79.6 per cent of cases); cardiovascular disease (48.5 per cent of cases); diabetes (29 per cent of cases); lung disease (14.6 per cent).

However, as many as 14.4 per cent of those who died did not have any of the above risk factors.

The Swedish approach has received criticism both domestically and internationally as its death toll has leapt much higher than its Nordic neighbours, which have all instituted more restrictive containment measures.

Norway did not report any cases on Monday, while Denmark reported 123, with five new deaths. 

Sweden's top disease expert, Anders Tegnell, is the expert who has led the country's herd immunity approach.

Earlier this month, he told the Mail On Sunday that he believed Britain's lockdown had gone too far.

Joe Biden Fake Tweet.

Bill Gates Shills for China. "They missed some things."

Breitbart: Gates: Criticism of China Coronavirus Deception a ‘Distraction’.

During an interview that aired on Sunday’s broadcast of CNN’s “Fareed Zakaria GPS,”  Microsoft co-founder and co-chair of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Bill Gates argued against a focus on China for allegations it mishandled the early stages of the coronavirus breakout and could have act early to have prevented the global pandemic.

Gates said it was not timely and it was also a “distraction.”

“I don’t think that’s a timely thing because it doesn’t affect how we act today,” Gates said. “You know, China did a lot of things right at the beginning, like any country where a virus first shows up. They can look back and say they missed some things.["]

 "[China] missed some things..."? It's like Gates is pulling an Ilhan Omar, "Some people did something."

China lied to the world about the timeline of the Coronavirus and, "they missed some things," is how Gates describes it? I guess it's not like rebooting a country would work. Turn China Off and On again? Will that fix things, Bill?

In other Gates-related news (I know he exited MS long ago), the April 14 Win Patch fixed a bunch of vulnerable stuff. Forbes:

The April 14 Patch Tuesday updates included fixes for a total of 133 vulnerabilities, including seven critical security flaws in Windows 10.

And bugs there seem to be, with one cumulative security fix[.]

RT: Parisians defy Covid-19 lockdown with outdoor DANCE PARTY that prompts police raid. 

Dozens of people gathered in a posh historic district of Paris for an impromptu street party, dancing to music blasted by a resident from his balcony amid the coronavirus lockdown. The party triggered a rapid police response.

Townhall: Californians flock to the beach. 

With the temperature in California rising above 90 degrees this weekend, tens of thousands of Californians flocked to sunny beaches in defiance of Gov. Newsom's stay-at-home order. Beaches operated by the state remain closed, but some city beaches are now open.

People surfing and sunbathing in hot weather became breaking news this weekend as an estimated 50,000 people descended upon Newport and Huntington Beaches. The beachgoers could be seen throwing caution to the wind as they engaged in "nonessential" activities such as swimming, sunbathing, and surfing.

Former Clinton adviser calls on Biden to withdraw over assault allegations.

The Fun and Games has barely begun!

FOX News (right click on link and open in new window): Former Clinton adviser calls on Biden to withdraw over assault allegations. 

Peter Dauo, a political activist and one-time fierce Hillary Clinton backer, urged former Vice President Joe Biden to end his presidential bid over new developments in the sexual assault allegation against him.

Dauo, who worked for Clinton during her first presidential bid and was a prominent defender of her in the 2016 cycle, took to Twitter Saturday morning to say "Biden should withdraw."

In a "difficult" Twitter thread, Daou said the new information emerging in support of Tara Reade's sexual assault allegation against Biden prompted his stance.

"Credible rape accusations are disqualifying or we have NO moral standards," Daou wrote.

While Daou was a major Clinton booster in 2016, he shifted this cycle to back one-time Clinton opponent, Bernie Sanders.

Dauo suggests Democrats should reboot the presidential primary.

"Moral Standards"...in the Democrat Party? How can you have what doesn't exist?

Biden should withdraw from the race? Hmmmmm....I wonder who the DNC has in mind to replace him?

Larry King clip of Tara Reade's mother's phone call disappears from Google Play.

The Reich Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda... I mean Google Play, has made the Larry King clip of Tara Reade's mother phone call disappear. Fold arms, nod head, twinkle nose and SNAP...it's gone!

FOX News (right click on link and open in new window): CNN 'Larry King' episode featuring Biden accuser's mother disappears from Google Play catalog.

The 1993 episode of CNN's "Larry King Live" featuring an anonymous caller who was later identified as the mother of Biden accuser Tara Reade was no longer listed in Google Play's catalog late Saturday.
[.]
Neither CNN nor Google immediately responded to Fox News' requests for comment. Fox News also reached out to the representation of Larry King and have not heard a response.

The clip just vanished. Maybe the clip found a nice home along with Hillary's missing emails.

Media has never been so complicit. Amazing. Oh wait, it's not amazing at all. We've seen this before:

The Larry King clip is here.

The Tara Reade story is here.

CNN shelving the clip is here.

Who needs propaganda in this era when you have censors like Google, CNN, FB and Twatter?
