Chinese Virus Scandemic (a.k.a. The Kung Flu) statistics for week number 54 (378 days) as at August 27th. 2021 (plus political comment and our personal news) since 21/08/20. Greetings from Medellin, Colombia.

CHINESE VIRUS STATISTICS and related comment. Note that comparative figures in parenthesis relate to August 13th. 
We have listened again to Dr. Bryan Bridle who is an eminent immunologist, vaccinologist and epidemiologist. His message is:
The main "vaccines" that were rolled out to much fanfare, apart from the harm they have already caused, are now outdated in terms of their effectiveness as the Chinese Virus continues to mutate. Pfizer, for example, is now only 44% effective. And another report says 39%.
And the "vaccines" are driving the mutations. Viruses are like every other living thing; if they are threatened, they simply look for ways to survive and indeed thrive and that's exactly what has happened with the so-called Delta variant. And as the mutations gain ground, the original "vaccines" become progressively even less effective. And from a research point of view, these "vaccines" were never good quality from the getgo. This is because of the lack of proper testing and continuing lack of FDA approval. Although we understand that the Pfizer "vaccine" is now or soon will be approved by the FDA, but why was it pushed on populations all over the world before this approval??  They have been administered on an "emergency" basis. Who on earth would have been conned to risk putting an untested substance in their bodies - millions apparently with as yet totally unknown future consequences. Now we understand that the Pfizer has been approved, but the main effect of that is to allow employers to legally discriminate against employees who have made the decision for all sorts of genuine reasons not to allow these "vaccines" into their bodies. And there are attempts to deny access to anyone "unvaccinated" to many public places such as restaurants, gyms etc. These business owners are up in arms because not only have they seen their businesses decimated during ill-considered lockdowns, but now a sizable proportion of potential clients cannot deal with them. There has been a suggestion of the same thing here in Medellin (but not other municipalities such as Envigado). However, the Medellin mayor appears to have been very premature in suggesting this because it would require a law change and business owners here, as everywhere, would riot in the streets. We've been told by numerous people that it will not happen. 
And, while on the subject of the dubious FDA approval, or not - Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin (both proven effective treatments for early stage Chinese Virus) remain unapproved and now banned in certain countries in order to keep people dependent on these horrible "vaccines". Thank goodness we can buy both freely here in Colombia without the need for any doctors' prescriptions. And they are made here as well as no doubt other countries.
Now we are being told that because of the original "vaccines'" much reduced efficacy, a 3rd. booster shot will now be needed!!! These people must think we're morons - there have been so many lies and flip-flops a la the Fauci liar-in-chief - who could ever trust any country's public health system again, much less allow any of this poisonous crap into their bodies? NOT US, that's for an absolute certainty. 
Whatever happened to the leftist mantra that "it's my body and I will decide what happens to it"? Why doesn't that apply to anyone who for very good reasons refuses to accept these "vaccines"? The hypocrisy is astounding - but why should we be astounded? Nothing astounds us any more. 
A prominent example of a person who has a "breakthrough" Chinese Virus infection is Governor Abbott of Texas. He was fully "vaccinated". And there are many other examples of "vaccinated" people getting the lurgi - up to 60% of all hospitalisations in the UK for example.
Further news about Abbott - he apparently tested positive for the confounded virus and then 3 days later tested negative - and yet we read reports of endless queues of people all over the world waiting to be tested. WHY, we have to ask?

NEW ZEALAND - instead of the alternative name of Aotearoa being stealthily pushed on the population, a better and far more appropriate name would be "SHE'LL BE RIGHT, MATE".
Population - 5,002,100 - ((5,002,100) - NO CHANGE!! If NZ's not careful, it will have the same demographic problem that currently afflicts China.
Active cases - 384 - (44) - up 340 or 772.7%. Percentage of total population - 0.008% - (0.001%)
Active cases per 1 million of total population - 77 - (9) - up 68 or 755.6%
It's all been said in the notes below.

PHILIPPINES

Active cases - 142,531 - (96,395) - up 46,136 or 47,9%. Percentage of total population - 0.128% - (0.087%)
Active cases per 1 million of total population - 1,281 - (867) - up 414 or 47.8%
More or less the same weekly increase. This needs to be turned around soon.

Active cases per 1 million of total population - 2,646 - (3,031) - down 385 or 12.7%
Looks like Thailand has turned the corner at last.

 UNITED KINGDOM
Population - 68,296,383 - (68,282,770) - up 13,613 or 0.020%
Active cases - 1,245,392 - (1,302, 503) - down 57,111 or 4.4%. Percentage of total population - 1.824% - (1.908%) 
Active cases per 1 million of total population - 18,235 - (19,075) - down 840 or 4.4%
Good to see a reduction at last, even if only miniscule.

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Population - 333,236,063 - (333,161,957) - up 74,106 or 0.022%
Active cases - 7,958,077 - (6,476,139) - up 1,481,938 or 22.9%. Percentage of total population - 2.388% - (1.944%)
Active cases per 1 million of total population - 23,881 - (19,438) - up 4,443 or 22.9%
Notwithstanding "vaccine hesitancy" and false reporting, it certainly seems as though the Chinese Virus is here to stay - everyone just better get used to it.

URUGUAY
Population - 3,487,588 - (3,487,128) - up 460 or 0.013%
Active cases - 1,242 - (1,513) - down 271 or 17.9%. Percentage of total population - 0.036% - (0.043%)
Active cases per 1 million of total population - 356 - (434) - down 78 or 18.0%
Rate of decrease down by half but still a solid result in the right direction. Better than Australia!!

Highlights - 
Equities, by and large still increasing, although by very small amounts over the last fortnight. They continue to defy all odds - even the "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" author, Robert Kiyosaki is warning of the "mother of all crashes" coming soon.
Currencies remain in the same hide-bound ranges. Even the USD which is widely tipped to fall substantially - and by all logic it should, given that the Federal Reserve is printing 120 billion of the damn things per week. But the excess fake money is being sucked up into equities and crypto which explains the insane price rises in the latter category. Sooner or later it's all going to end in tears with the total US Government debt heading for a 30 TRILLION dollar total debt this year. To have ANY chance of paying this massive debt, devaluation (inflation) is the only way out and that will be absolutely devastating for the economy and the middle class which will be wiped out.
Commodities remain in the same price ranges with coal the stand-out performer. Even Godzone is importing Indonesian coal to power Huntly when we have millions of tons still in the ground. Gold and silver are showing slight signs of improvement when you would expect much greater price increases due to all the political instability. Copper is up slightly less but still a solid performer.


COMMENT AND NEWS - 

AUSTRALIA - 
Australia and New Zealand may be showing us the Orwellian future that is coming to all of us.
We have just heard a story which is absolutely typical of what Australia has become. Apparently in Sydney several people had signed up to collect and adopt dogs from a city pound. But the day of collection coincided with the start of the lunatic lockdown. As a result, the police shot all the dogs and then rang the people on the list to tell them. What a heartless bunch of bastards - this is what Australia has become.
And the Premier of Victoria stated on TV that "Sunday is going to be a nice day, BUT BETTER AT HOME - otherwise there will be many more Sundays spent in hospital". What a heartless, ignorant, fear-mongering f------g MORON!!!! When he said that, he looked like he was "on something" with staring eyes.
Mind you, none of this really surprises us. Jean had a shocking experience with Australian Customs in Sydney when her then (Cathay Pacific Captain) husband's father was dying on the West Coast of the South Island and they made multiple trips from Hong Kong in a short time frame. They were then accused of drug smuggling in the most distressing of personal circumstances. And threatened with body searches.
Then, when we were on the boat in SE Asia and flying back to NZ with Air Asia for a visit, we made a stop at Coolangatta, Queensland. It was not long after Jean's double hip replacements in India a few months before. As expected, the Titanium parts of the new hips set off the security alarms. Whereupon a totally obnoxious female Customs officer accused Jean of having something secreted on her person!! In spite of Jean having previously warned them about the hips' metal parts. This awful woman who would have been more at home running a concentration camp, then stated that Jean had something buried in her ankles! Detectors were run all over her and of course found nothing, but the whole nonsensical business left a very disagreeable impression with us over Australian so-called law enforcement. The country has lost its way, thanks mainly to the rabid Socialist state premiers who relish the power that the Chinese Virus has handed them on a plate.
The Australian PM, Scott Morrison, has rebuked his state premiers for their excessive lockdown tactics. He is linking the lifting of lockdown restrictions with achieving "vaccination" targets, and of course the FDA "approval" of Pfizer will have given his plan a boost. Well, all we can say is good luck Australia - there it seems the price of freedom is being forced to accept an injection into one's body of some very dubious stuff indeed. We can only hope for Australians' sakes that the predictions of some very serious side effects are not as serious as many well qualified people are saying.
We have just heard that the Australian Army has been deployed on various state borders by order of the states, to help enforce bans on interstate travel. The orders are illegal as the Army is a Federal agency. We trust that Canberra pulls the plug on that little stunt.
And truckies have been told that they cannot enter various states without being pricked. They've collectively told the states that they can starve in that case. There will therefore be very very few interstate deliveries of food or anything else. 
In NSW people over 60 are restricted to ONE hour per week for food shopping - presumably because they are considered to be computer illiterate and therefore unable to order on-line!! And all others under 60 MUST order on-line. NO personal shopping.
On the Queensland/NSW state border there are the 2 twin cities which are the joined conurbation of Tweed Heads and Coolangatta. However, if you live in one of these and have a business, work, or your children go to school, or you need medical attention across the border, you cannot cross the border. NO EXEMPTIONS!!!!!
And we have heard that 3 children have died after receiving the jab at school against their parents' wishes. Not sure which state.
This is the National Socialist State of Australia.  See under "New Zealand" for further news about a concentration camp being built at Toowoomba in Queensland.

We have been reading about the health properties of the Coca Leaf and we obtained some the other day. We infuse it in hot water and drink it as a tea. This is the raw ingredient (precursor) for Cocaine, but by comparison has many life enhancing properties, and was used predominantly by the local farmers as being good for stamina at high altitudes. It is non narcotic in its natural form.
Unlike Cocaine, in which among many other processes, the Coca is "cleaned" with Gasoline which these days contains far more very nasty additives than the old lead of yore. Benzene and Toluene are but 2. How anyone could contemplate using Cocaine, or any other addictive drug for that matter knowing these things is beyond us. Maybe it's simply that people are so desperate for a "high," that they simply ignore these facts.
And in spite of all the criticism heaped on Colombia for supplying Cocaine, it is well worth pointing out that if it wasn't for the demand, the business wouldn't exist. 
We've had better news about the car. The problem is identified, but we will need to source some new parts from the US. In the meantime it is being put back together and will be completely driveable in the meantime. And the problem, although associated with the transmission, is not actually with the gearbox itself, so that is a relief. Apparently the pinion gears which transfer the drive from the engine and gearbox to the front drive axles are worn and need replacing.
This is especially good news, because we have re-visited a house at El Retiro which we have found and would like to buy. We visited with our young architect friend, Juan, and he clarified just what we can do to alter the house to our requirements. The alterations aren't massive but Juan, although largely agreeing with our ideas, was able to refine and clarify them so that we now have a clear idea of the way forward. Having the car back will greatly ease the practical difficulties we have had in re-visiting Retiro. For example, last Saturday, apart from having our car out of action, Juan doesn't have a car either and the real estate agent's car was also out of action for a couple of days! So she borrowed her cousin's car and we all travelled in that! These temporary situations are never convenient. We will send some photos of the house once we have the legalities tied up; until then there's always some uncertainty.
Just some comments about the real estate business here. It's a bit different from what we've been used to in NZ in that it's not quite so simple as contacting an agent and being shown some listings. There is always another agent involved and appointments always need to include this other person. So, like many things in Colombia, appointments can take a little time to arrange!! Commission on selling is 3% of the gross sale price, which seems reasonable to us. Fingers crossed that it all happens and that we can sell the apartment.

NEW ZEALAND - see our suggestion for an alternative name for the country above. And especially see our comments under "Australia".
NZ now has its first community Chinese Virus cases in a while. It started as 1 case and immediately the largest city, Auckland, went into Level 4 lockdown - the highest lockdown level. The whole of the rest of the country went to Level 3. This extremist reaction is entirely due to the lunatics who are running this asylum believing that Virus eradication is a viable policy. Of course it is not and we don't know what it will take for this unpalatable fact to be realised. In the meantime we watch with horrified fascination. From what we've seen so far, the rest of the world also cannot believe this extreme reaction.
Of course the real reason for these extremist reactions to even small numbers of the Chinese Virus, is that NZ's hospital system can barely cope now with normal requirements, and only a small number of C Virus cases would totally overwhelm it. This is a situation that has existed since the late 1930's and it is disgraceful that successive governments over the years have neglected the sector to such an extent. Let's hope that the country is not put completely to that test.
We've just seen an Australian senator being interviewed by Laura Ingraham on Fox News. He was bemoaning the vicious and entirely pointless lockdowns that are being imposed again in Australia, including fines of up to $A5,000 for a Chinese Virus transgression, when he also mentioned the clowns in NZ. He made the point that NZ always likes to "get one up" on Australia and they've really succeeded this time. After only 1 community Virus case in a total population of over 5 million (now there's just over 100), the whole country is suddenly locked up tighter than the proverbial. Talk about lunatics in charge of the asylum!!
Godzone was also lambasted on the Fox News Gutfeld Show; the country is an international laughing stock.
There are now about 7 cases, and no doubt there will be more; maybe Ardern's aura of invincibility will finally, and not before time, be punctured. As at Aug. 27th. there are 384 "active cases". This is 0.008% of the population - compared to 0.087% for Colombia. And Colombia is wide open and we've never seen such obvious economic activity. So, do lockdowns work?????????? NO, they are simply a Socialist tool to frighten people and ensure compliance into the future.
In NZ's case, with the existing low quality "vaccines" being frantically taken by the majority of the population, and no real previous exposure, the NZ population is very much at risk. Access to well proven drugs which have proven effective in treating early stage C Virus is legally denied from the population. This is not far from wilful ignorant negligence potentially coming close to murder.
We note that the Herald is denigrating those who advance entirely reasonable arguments for at least seriously considering the pros and cons of the "vaccines". They imply that such arguments are crackpot ideas dredged out of disreputable internet sites. In the vast majority of cases, nothing could be further from the truth. We have heard very reasonable and well researched arguments against taking any of these "vaccines" from internationally recognised epidemiologists for example (including Dr. Damien Wojcik of Whangarei) and we have concluded that we would not risk taking something as spurious as these "vaccines" which themselves have been the subject of so much misinformation and outright lies. And now it is being said that a third booster shot is going to be required as the much touted efficacy of the "vaccines" has been greatly eroded by new variants. In fact the truth is, as stated above in the introduction, that  the "vaccines" are forcing the virus to mutate.
NZ and Australia have been lambasted and ridiculed by international media all over the world. As New Zealanders ourselves, we cannot believe the opprobrium and scorn - albeit totally deserved.
Jean was vastly amused as a previous long time habitue and resident of Mangawhai north of Auckland, to read that residents of Langs Beach about 15 minutes drive north were not allowed into Mangawhai to get to their nearest supermarket or to get their mail from the Post Office. These wicked unvaxxed denizens of the Far North must not be allowed into the pristine surrounds of Mangawhai, much of which is technically part of Auckland City - a good hour and a half's drive away!!
Alex Belfield has just said on Youtube that he "wouldn't go to Australia or New Zealand for all the tea in China". His piece, broadcast today (the 27/08) is entitled "Human Rights Outrage Down Under Slammer". This "quarantine facility" being built near Toowoomba in Queensland is finally intended as a detention centre/ concentration camp for "dissidents" whose only crime is standing up for free speech.
By the way, Belfield's nickname for the NZ PM is Jacinda Hardon!!!!!!!!!!!

The United Kingdom House of Commons passed a vote holding the United States President (Biden) IN CONTEMPT. This is definitely a first - never before has the British Parliament taken such a step. It is of course well deserved as Biden's contemptible actions have caught the British and other NATO allies totally off-guard in Afghanistan and as a result they are scrambling to try and get their troops and nationals out in the same chaotic circumstances. And the Taliban has insisted that all must be gone by August 31st. otherwise "there will be consequences". This is the worst situation that NATO has faced since it was founded in the late 1940's. 
The political left across the world, including in Canada, Australia and NZ, are ramping up their efforts to destroy democracy and of course the Chinese Virus hoax has given them the perfect cover for their nefarious actions.
If you can possibly do so listen to Andre Walker on Youtube (25/08) talking about the attack on freedoms and democracy. Australia in particular has come in for stinging criticism all over the world and NZ hasn't escaped either due to their lunatic adherence to the "elimination" policy which has been shown time and time again not to work. And now we have Covid 22 - what the hell is that? More fear-mongering to push more of their authoritarian crap down everyone's throat.
Afghanis are now starting to arrive along with the unceasing flow of dinghy divers. Soon the British population will be living in poverty in tent cities while the illegals occupy all the luxury hotels and homes.
Again Alex Belfield is "The Voice of Reason" in this increasingly mad and dictatorial world. Apparently police in a seaside town attacked a busker who was singing some Roger Whittaker songs because you aren't allowed to sing because you might spread the old Kung Flu. It took 5 of them all on top of the unfortunate busker who was left covered in blood as a result of this shameful attack. The Nazis are back in force - only this time in Merrie England. What did we fight for between 1939 and 1945?

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA - 
BIDEN THE BETRAYER - Joe Biden's plot to destroy democracy and freedom.
Beijing Biden has been installed by his Paymasters, the CCP (and his traitorous son, Hunter), in a fraudulent election. It's now PAYBACK time for the Paymasters. 
Like many people probably, we have been wondering at the Biden crooks' motivation with seemingly lunatic policies. We have come to the conclusion that it is one of two things - 
** they are simply determined to destroy the USA by malfeasance in as many areas and as quickly as possible, and/or
** in the case of anything involving the armed services, they encourage as big a debacle as possible and the loss of billions of dollars of equipment so that there is more excuse for more war driven by the outrage of the population and of course there's the added benefit of war material production by the so-called military-industrial complex.
The areas where they have totally managed to deliberately f--k things up are:
** the southern border with criminals, virus infected illegals and vast quantities of Chinese made Fentanyl and Methamphetamine, as well as unaccompanied children destined for the child sex trade, all pouring across the border in increasing numbers. 
** feckless financial and spending policies designed to ultimately cause the most economic harm as possible - the latest being so-called "infrastructure" bills to the collective tune of 4.7 TRILLION dollars.
** destruction of US energy independence by cancelling the Alberta - Texas pipeline and giving the Russians carte blanche to export natural gas via a pipeline through the Baltic Sea to western Europe - and therefore the opportunity to blackmail them in the future by withholding supplies. They've done this before with Ukraine.
** the immigration of as many young immigrants as possible, including tens of thousands from Afghanistan in order to swell the number of Democrat voters for the future. Never mind that many of these are very likely future terrorists. And all this while many Americans remain trapped in Afghanistan where they are likely to be tortured and executed in the most hideous and cruel ways.
** Afghanistan and the totally inept withdrawal with a deadline of Aug. 31st. remaining which means that many Americans and former Afghani allies will be abandoned to their fates with the Taliban and now Al-Qaeda once more.
Along with most people, we have been horrified at the turn of events in Afghanistan - directly caused by deliberate incompetence on the part of the crook in the White House along with military leaders who should all be sacked and arrested for military malfeasance. 
Latest news reports state that there could be as many as 40,000 Americans, plus loyal Afghanis who put their lives on the line by working for the US and its allies, trapped in various parts of the country. Nobody actually knows. The whole withdrawal was as cockamamie as you could imagine. First the entire military was evacuated, but in the process they left behind billions of dollars worth of top secret military equipment and including all those Americans together with loyal Afghanis who served with US forces during the 20 years that they were in Afghanistan.
Now there has been a suicide bomb attack at Kabul International Airport killing upwards of 100 people including 13 members of the US military and of course countless injured - no doubt some horrifically.
There are now horrifying reports, as well as videos, of the Taliban systematically commencing the hunt for these Afghanis and torturing them, then executing them and their families, including children. We won't detail these executions, except to say that they are not limited to shooting.
There has been one of many of these executions which has been described in graphic detail. A suspected Afghani interpteter was dragged from his house and forced to speak English to prove his identity, otherwise they would torture and kill his wife and very young daughter. As soon as he spoke as he'd been forced to, they beheaded him in front of his family. Later they will be back to commit rape and murder of both mother and child.
A mother of 11 in Oklahoma, and who obtained a masters degree at the age of 55, has with the help of a friend of hers in the US Embassy in Qatar, managed to get a complete Afghani womens' sports team out of Afghanistan. 
These horrific situations are indicative of many and they are the direct and deliberate fault of the lunatic in the White House. There was a British Army Colonel who was interviewed by Mark Levin who said that Biden, as the deliberately feckless Commander-in-Chief, should be court martialed for dereliction of duty and/or TREASON. Quicker and more effective than Impeachment.
The consequences of this abject failure of leadership which is now totally exposed on the world stage, are that China, Russia and Iran are watching the unfolding debacle with glee. China in particular will be coldly calculating their chances of success in "reunifying" Taiwan. They will be assuming that with a weak and totally feckless Biden, there would be no US military intervention and that therefore their actions would be unopposed.
One aspect which we had not previously considered is that the Taliban has long been supported by Pakistan which is on Afghanistan's eastern border. Pakistan is nuclear armed which raises the spectre of nuclear weapons in the hands of the most radical and cruel regime in the world. One more in a long line of destructive policies by the cretin in the White House.
Biden's long history of outright racism and policy failures, whether domestic or foreign, have been piling up for all of the almost 50 destructive years that he has been part of the Washington political swamp. But this latest is by far the worst and will have far-reaching consequences for America and what is left of the "Free World" far into the future - probably beyond whatever is left of our lifetimes - if the world survives that long. 
The Maricopa County (Phoenix, Arizona) saga drags on. The Maricopa County Board is still defying state law and court orders in refusing to hand over electoral machine routers. They must really be hiding something big. In the meantime the State Senate is threatening to withhold any further state funding if they do not meet the latest court imposed deadline of August 27th. This is going to be big and other swing states are just waiting before conducting their own forensic audits.
Along with the disgraceful and traitorous Afghanistan situation, we don't think the Biden administration is long for this world.
Once again we hope that the past 2 weeks has treated you reasonably (in spite of the woke lockdowns) and that the coming 2 weeks is better.
