The red line in particular is not a curve--it's more like a very brief buildup to a volcano blowing up as Mt. St. Helens did.

Actually, a volcano wouldn't look like that. It's briefer. Would be easy for someone to request daily all-cause and daily all-cause by place of death for Skamania County from the Washington State health department...

It's more of a curve when I zoom in. https://substack.com/profile/32813354-jessica-hockett/note/c-70103636?utm_source=notes-share-action&r=jjay2

But (as I've noted elsewhere), the ED event is shorter than the inpatient event - and Home death event is simultaneous to the ED event (and NH event).

It makes no sense that there is so much silence around this. Unless you figure it's because no one person can verify it occurred as presented.

Sadly it appears you, Dr Engler and a few (hopefully increasing) others are modern day Diogenes. I’m not optimistic

I am a skeptical optimist by nature and am always looking upward and onward. :)

I have “optimistic skeptic” in my Twitter profile (sorry, can’t bring myself to use “X”) but I guess I should have added “realist” as well. As documented in the conversation following your last substack about JB, these guys have already suffered so many slings and arrows from their 100% brainwashed fellow faculty, they likely have retreated to their corners to lick their wounds.

I’d like to point out that if one is a PhD, let alone a PhD at a very prestigious institution, it is (in theory) an indication that standing for what you believe is true and right, come what may, is a minimum expectation. The best minds in the land are expected to stand and be counted when critical circumstances in our history compel them to do so.

Let us not pretend that the authors of the GBD (or even someone like myself) paid the price and suffered the consequences as a single-mom nurse who was fired for refusing the shot (for example).

Since the Pandemic Policy Conference — and then reading all their self-aggrandizing tweets — I've taken to calling them the "Dissenters" Support Group. They've had it so rough, poor things🙃.

I struggle re Dr. B. In my heart, I think he's a good person. But THEN I think of his 🙈🙉🙊 (including blocking you twice!!), and I'm very disappointed in him and in doubt. I'm also one who is vehemently opposed to "focused protection" (which is still very much going on, including with "end-of-life" patients vis-a-vis positive-for-covid tests), so that's another problem….

Anyone from Stanford? Well, Jay Bhattacharya has already IMO disgraced himself as both you and Jonathan Engler have documented.

If Scott Atlas is still there, maybe he will respond. He has strongly criticized Fauci and Birx when he was a member of the task force but haven’t heard a peep from him about the most important of all the issues and at the core of everything that was unleashed on an unsuspecting public

THERE WAS NO PANDEMIC

By "Stanford," I mean Drs. Bhattacharya, Levitt, Atlas, and/or Ioannidis.

yeah even the national "ILI" visits per CDC dont' correspond to that. Also weird that both ILI outpatient visits for 2017-18 & 2022-23 peaks are higher than during supposed "heights" of covid

this actually made me LOL at work. At least I'm in an assisted living today where random outbursts aren't unusual
