Pandemic Hysteria Revisited—The Phony Houston Hospital Crisis Was Plain As Day

Self-evidently, the MSM is no longer in the news business. Instead, it traffics in narrative dissemination or what in more honest times would have been characterized as state propaganda.

That this was the case from beginning to end during the pandemic ordeal is now abundantly clear. But the thicket of propaganda got especially suffocating during the so-called “whole of government” campaign to stampede the public into getting the mRNA shot, wherein it was claimed that the jab would prevent infection and transmission—only to have “Joe Biden” and other official spokesman succumb multiple times.

Thereafter, this discredited version of the story quickly changed with respect to what were euphemistically called “breakthrough” infections. Now the reason for the jab was your own good, not just society’s. Mitigation of illness and death became the new narrative until, well, the passage of time and results belied that claim, too.

For instance, Alex Berenson reported today on a Ohio State study comparing mortality rates among vaccinated and unvaccinated Covid patients suffering from acute respiratory failure:

On Feb. 6, Ohio State University researchers published a stunning finding – stunning to anyone overwhelmed by mainstream media mRNA propaganda since 2021, anyway. Vaccinated Covid patients hospitalized with respiratory failure were more likely to die than the unjabbed. 70 percent died, compared to 37 percent.

The gap persisted when the researchers matched patients by age and comorbidities. “Vaccination status of hospital-admitted COVID-19 patients may not be instructive in determining mortality risk,” they wrote.

In their report, published in Frontiers in Immunology, a peer-reviewed journal, the Ohio State researchers also reported vaccinated patients tended to have higher IgG4 antibody levels during their third week of hospitalization.

That finding is notable, since papers last year showed that mRNA jab recipients eventually develop higher levels of IgG4 antibodies – which promote immune systems tolerance of pathogens like viruses rather than a full-on attack.

“In our study, the observed trend for increased total IgG4 concentration in week 3 for [vaccinated] patients may explain the reduced protective [antibody] responses,” the scientists wrote.
