Chinese Virus statistics week number 30 as at 12/03/2021 (plus political comment and our personal news) since August 21st. 2020 (210 days). THE HUMBUG OF WOKE.

Hi to all,

We trust that everyone is still in the pink.

MUNDO - World

Total cases - 119,225,069 - (21,168,111) - up 98,056,958 or 463.2%

Deaths - 2,643,918 - 2.2% - (759,328 - 3.6%) - up 1,884,590 or 248.2%

Recoveries - 94,809,175 - 79.5% - (13,984,843 - 66.1%) - up 80,824,332 or 577.9%

Therefore active cases - 21,771,976 - 18.3% - (6,425,939 - 30.3%) - up 15,345,037 or 238.8%. Of the total population (which is estimated to be increasing by 1,557,692 per week) of 7,851,649,679 (7,804,380,455), the percentage of active cases is 0.277% (0.082%) of the total world population. 

Total active cases per 1 million of total population - 2,773 - (1,437)

Compared to last week, active cases are down by 9,140 or 0.04%. Last week the reductions were 109,291 or 0.5%

Total active cases per 1 million of total population are down 2, which is only 0.072%.

So, the weekly rates of reductions continue to slow substantially. Not a good trend. 

Vaccines - Norway, Iceland and Denmark have all suspended all dispensation of the Astra-Seneca vaccine because it is implicated in causing blood clots. People have died. It is far too early for anyone to commit to accepting any of these vaccines in our opinion. And now the Republic of Ireland has temporarily suspended use of the AS vaccine as well. Blood clots are actually one of the symptoms of the Chinese Virus and they can kill - and have. So why on earth would anyone in their right minds take that risk??

If you go to the Highwire website (www.highwire.com), and look for Del Bigtree, you will get up to date information re the vaccinations world-wide. There are regular weekly updates every Wednesday or Thursday (depending on where you are), and much of the information which is scientifically backed up and normally presented by qualified people, is extremely disturbing. We won't go into details, except to say that we will NOT be having any Chinese Virus vaccine anytime soon - if ever. We realise that people can be pressured in their jobs with threats of dismissal even, but it's probably a matter of just how much you value your health. Anyway. NZ is desperately short of midwives!!! 

And what's the problem with people who refuse on valid health grounds to have the vaccine? All the rabid pro-vaxxers will be ok from the virus spreading anti-vaxxers - BECAUSE THEY WILL HAVE BEEN VACCINATED!!!!!!!

ESTADOS UNIDOS - United States

Total cases - 29,925,902 - (5,429,115) - up 24,496,787 or 451.2%

Deaths - 543,721 - 1.8% - (170,781 - 3.2%) - up 372,940 or 218.4%

Recoveries - 20,790,554 - 69.5% - (2,844,535 - 52.4%) - up 17,946,019 or 630.9%

Therefore active cases - 8,591,627 - 28.7% - (2,413,829 - 44.6%) - up 6,177,798 or 255.9%. Of the total population of 332,346,783 (331,236,184), the percentage of active cases is 2.585% (0.729%) of the total population.

Total active cases per 1 million of total population - 25,851 - (9,043)

Compared to last week, the comparative figures are:

Total cases up 398,657 or 1.4%

Deaths up 10,080 or 1.9%

Recoveries up 696,809 or 3.5%

Active cases down 308,232 or 3.5%

Total active cases per 1 million of total population are down by 931 or 3.5%.

The numbers, as far as you can believe them, are all moving in the desired direction. Let's hope that they continue and that the weekly increase in total cases turns the corner and also starts reducing.

We have just had the disgusting spectacle of the illegitimate crook masquerading as president, making a self congratulatory speech on how well they are doing with the vaccines. No acknowledgement of the Trump administration's involvement, without which there would have been NO vaccine - perhaps for several years. Notwithstanding very serious concerns that we are seeing more and more from reputable organisations around the world concerning various vaccines' safety record and efficacy.

And no mention of the overwhelming crisis that has erupted quite predictably on the southern border - all of which is a direct result of Biden & Co.'s concerted efforts to destroy America.  

More than 10 states have now sued the Biden crooks on a variety of constitutional issues - most notably that they have already caused and are causing massive and irreparable harm to those states. One can only imagine what is likely to happen if the states get nowhere with those lawsuits. We've said all there is to say on that subject!  Suffice it to say that already this year in two and a half months 800 criminal aliens have been arrested in Texas. How many more in addition to that figure have evaded arrest? There have also already been 108,000 illegals detected in Texas in the Rio Grande sector alone so far this year and for the whole of 2020 there were 90,000. Doesn't that tell you anything? We witnessed a very impassioned speech down on the border by the Texas Governor, Greg Abbott. He is a lawyer as well as having been a Justice of the Texas Supreme Court, and has been in a wheelchair since the age of 26 as a result of a tree falling on him while he was jogging. He spoke very forcefully and absolutely laid it on the line to the Biden crooks and announced that he had ordered the immediate deployment of 500 Texas National Guard troops to the border to maintain border integrity. This is another state move in direct defiance of Biden & Co. 

In an interview with Mark Levin, a constitutional law scholar, by the Fox News presenter, Sean Hannity on March 11th., Levin absolutely destroyed Biden. It was wonderful and uplifting to watch.

And more disturbingly than ever, Biden's errant son, Hunter is being brought into play over Taiwan by the Communist Party of China in order to blackmail the crook in the Oval Office. 

We could go on and on, but all we can say, apart from the above, is please read the attachment to last week's blog - "an article which appeared in the Epoch Times March 4th." - if you haven't already done so. This is written by a New Zealander who has lived in the US for 30 years and sets out the political  issues plaguing the US better than anything else that we have read. It is refreshing to see a NZ'er actually taking such a detailed interest in matters outside their own country!! We'll attach it again to this blog - to make it easy for you.

Although again outside the date parameters of this blog, we have to refer to Mark Levin's show on Fox tonight. His closing statement was to the effect that "we must resist (legally) the illegal and unconstitutional moves that the Federal Government is making with trashing electoral and immigration laws, etc." However, the word "legally" was inserted almost as a last minute afterthought, as in order to fight the Socialists who are walking all over the Constitution with hob-nailed boots, "we the people" have to fight them in any way possible or expedient - not necessarily "legal".  

COLOMBIA

Total cases - 2,290,539 - (433,805) - up 1,867,734 or 430.6%

Deaths - 60,858 - 2.7% - (14,145 - 3.3%) - up 46,713 or 330.2%

Recoveries - 2,191,171 - 95.6% - (250,494 - 57.7%) - up 1,940,677 or 774.7%

Therefore active cases - 38,510 - 1.7% - (169.196 - 39.0%). Of the total population of 51,257,626 (50,948,628), the percentage of active cases is 0.075% (0.332%) of the total population.

Total active cases per 1 million of total population - 751 - (1,367)

Active cases compared to last week are down 3,074 or 7.4%

For the week ending January 29th., the active case figure was 120,278. This means that in 6 weeks the active case figure has dropped by 81,768 - an average per week of 13,628 and a total drop over that 6 weeks of 68%. These figures seem highly problematic to us - either the late January figures were wildly overstated, as around that time the weekly figures were up and down like the proverbial. Or the latest figures are wrong. No-one would know. We can only hope that the latest figures are somewhere near correct.

Very little has been happening in our private lives. We are continuing to organise Jean's travel to Miami on April 4th. and hoping that nothing too difficult occurs in Florida before she has been and returned. But the way things are going in the US, anything could happen. There are the air tickets themselves, the testing before leaving Colombia, the ESTA visa waiver, and last but not least the travel insurance. It is so far problematic getting Chinese Virus cover unless we can access a Colombian Government Foreign Affairs travel advisory stating that there is no problem from a health point of view with travelling to the US. So far, we haven't quite been able to confirm that information. Without it the insurance policy will not cover for the Chinese Virus and, as most symptoms of a number of ailments could theoretically be tied to the C Virus, it is a situation that needs resolution - otherwise the potential risks could be ruinous.

The weather is generally colder by 2 degrees C these days. Hard to understand with the approach of summer. The sun is already almost halfway on its journey north - or is that the earth slowly tilting on its axis? We'll all have to be careful we don't fall off. Some people we could help exit this world with a very large kick!! No prizes for guessing who. 

Maybe daylight saving is the glue that keeps us firmly in our places - thank God there is no daylight saving in Colombia, but it has just started in the US. We read an article the other day to the effect that suddenly having to do everything an hour earlier is actually very injurious to health. Statistically heart attacks and vehicle accidents (because people are constantly in a permanent state of fatigue) are always up when DS starts. The driving's bad enough in Colombia without adding daylight saving to the mix. 

MEXICO, COSTA RICA, PANAMA, COLOMBIA, ECUADOR, PERU, BOLIVIA, PARAGUAY, BRAZIL, CHILE, ARGENTINA, URUGUAY, plus UNITED KINGDOM, THAILAND and MALAYSIA

Following are the "active cases per 1 million of total population" for each country nominated above. Figures in parenthesis are for the previous week.

Mexico - 2,054 - (2,065) - down 11 or 0.5%. Hopefully the start of a consistent downward movement again. 

Costa Rica - 3,284 - (3,389) - down 105 or 3.1%. Nowhere near as big a reduction as last week, but still in the right direction. 

Panama - 1,501 - (1,761) - down 260 or 14.8%. Slightly less reduction than last week but still very much in the right direction. 

Colombia - 751 - (811) - down a further 60 or 7.4%. Still the best in S America!! 

Ecuador - 1,448 - (1,452) - down slightly by 4 or 0.3%. Nowhere near last week's reduction, but still going the right way. 

Peru - 1,341 - (1,577) - down 236 or 15.0%. A re-assuring reversal of last week's trend. 

Bolivia - 3,660 - (3,811) - down 151 or 4.0%. A reversal of last week - let's hope that this trend continues consistently. 

Paraguay - 3,746 - (3,294) - up 452 or 13.7%. A worsening of the trend of last week. This is not good. 

Brazil - 4,928 - (4,206) - up 722 or 17.2%. The upward trend is accelerating. Also not good. 

Chile - 1,605 - (1,324) - up 281 or 21.2%. What is happening in Chile? This is a continuing and accelerating trend which is worrying.

Argentina - 3,429 - (3,363) - up 66 or 2.0%. Last week down 1.4%. Now heading up again. 

Uruguay - 2,660 - (2,212) - up 448 or 20.3%. Big increases week on week. What is happening? 

United Kingdom - 10,712 - (14,396) - down 3,684 or 26.0%. A very satisfactory decrease after last week's 22.3%. Long may it continue. 

Thailand - 8 - (7) - up 1 or 14.3%. Good heavens - an increase of 1!! But way better than NZ - and all with a population of 70 million! 

Malaysia - 523 - (675) - down 152 or 22.5%. An excellent reduction again after last week's 21.3%. 

AUSTRALIA

Total cases -29,102 - (23,035) - up 6,067 or 26.3%

Deaths - 909 - 3.1% - (370 - 1.7%) - up 739 or 199.7%

Recoveries - 26,222 - 90.1% - (13,634 - 59.2%) - up 12,588 or 92.3%

Therefore active cases - 1,971 - 6.8% - (9,022 - 39.2%) - down 7,051 or 78.2%. Of the total population of 25,704,223 (25,538,969), the percentage of active cases is 0.008% (0.035%) of the total population.

Total active cases per 1 million of total population - 77 - (56). Up 2 since last week or 2.7%

Compared to last week, active cases are up 48 or 2.5%

Any more of this, and they'll probably have to lock the entire country down. The only good thing about that is that the politicians would all be locked up in a concentration camp with armed guards in Canberra!! And on bread and water.

NUEVA ZELANDA - New Zealand

Total cases - 2,417 - (1,714) - up 703 or 41.0%

Deaths - 26 - 1.1% - (25 - 1.4%) - up 1 or 4.0%

Recoveries - 2,305 - 95.4% - (1,531 - 95.5%) - up 774 or 50.6%

Therefore active cases - 86 - 3.6% - (49 - 3.0%) - up 37 or 75.5%. Of the total population of 5,002,100 (%,002,100), the percentage of active cases is 0.002% (0.001%) of the total population.

Total active cases per 1 million of total population - 17 - (14). Since last week up 3 or 21.4%.

Compared to last week, active cases are up 18 or 26.5%

Good God - percentage increases even worse than Oz. Parliament will be banished to the Chatham Islands for the rest of the year. Notice a common theme here? The Director of Health can run the country instead and lock up every village, town and city. Food deliveries will not be an essential service so everyone will starve. But no-one will die of the dreaded lurgi. The banished parliamentarians, including the Maori Party, can all make obeisance to the murdered Moriori of 190 years ago. But they will be ok, as long as they prostrate themselves on the beach where the Moriori were crucified, because there's plenty of lobster in the Chathams.

With that pithy comment we will once again love you and leave you..................and trust that you are all staying well...............

P.S. Wanna hear a good joke - 

A woman is riding on a bus while trying to breastfeed her baby. The baby, however, isn't interested.

After several tries, the mother is quite angry. "Drink the milk or I'll give it all to the man sitting at the back!" she says.

The baby is still playing around.

A few minutes later she tries again, "drink the milk or I'll really give it all to the man at the back, and you'll go hungry".

The baby continues rejecting her.

She tries again, very angry this time. "I'm definitely going to give it all to the man at the back if you don't behave".

This goes on a few more times.

Suddenly she hears a voice from the back of the bus - "Lady, will you please make up your mind? I was supposed to get off 5 stops ago".
