One death is too many – and with careful management and a lot of luck, the coronavirus sweeping the globe will be curbed, in terms of illness and loss of life.

But in the heat of the moment, difficult questions have been raised that will persist beyond the current crisis. Here are six of them:

1. Is self-quarantining good enough?

Everyone would like to believe that anyone possibly exposed to a serious contagious disease would comply with self-quarantine requirements. But history teaches a different lesson. We need only look at TV personality Nancy Snyderman, a medical doctor who violated her Ebola self-quarantine in 2014. She had agreed to observe a voluntary 21-day quarantine in her New Jersey home after reporting in Liberia, where a photographer on her team contracted Ebola. Yet, Snyderman was spotted getting takeout soup from a local restaurant.

There are plenty of examples of lesser-known patients violating quarantines. In 2003, a San Mateo County, Calif., man came down with symptoms of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) and got caught violating a voluntary agreement to stay in his home.

Others who are quarantined during public health emergencies might be ill-informed, noncompliant, or even willfully spread the disease.

2. Do quarantines work well anyway?

Maybe not. A quarantine after the 2003 outbreak of SARS in Toronto was deemed “both inefficient and ineffective,” according to an article published by The Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases & Medical Microbiology. A subsequent public health analysis concluded that at least 25 times more people were quarantined than was appropriate, the quarantine was “clearly ineffective” in identifying potential SARS patients, and only 57 percent of people quarantined were “compliant.”

3. How would a large quarantine be implemented and enforced?

During the 2003 SARS outbreak, police in China arrested a doctor infected with SARS for allegedly breaking quarantine and starting a further outbreak that infected more than 100 people. China then threatened to impose the death penalty on anyone who knowingly spread the disease.

If self-quarantining is not deemed effective enough, how would one reasonably enforce a quarantine of large numbers of people in a free society such as the U.S.?

Some Practical Questions About The Coronavirus Epidemic

Authored by Charles Hugh Smith via OfTwoMinds blog,

Restrictions that allow a significant number of people to move about, either with official approval or unsanctioned “black market” activity, cannot stop the spread of contagious diseases.

Like everyone else, I’ve been reading the mainstream media reports on the Coronavirus epidemic. I haven’t found any information about the practicalities that immediately occur to me, such as:

1. When public transportation is halted and commerce grinds to a halt as people avoid public places and gatherings, thousands of employees no longer go to work. Who pays their wages while the city is locked down? The employers? Then who compensates the employers, since their income has also gone to zero?

Does China have a universal unemployment insurance system that can quickly issue payments to all people who are no longer going to work and getting a paycheck from an employer?

What about the thousands of migrant workers who don’t have regular employers? Who pays them? If they’re technically not officially sanctioned residents of the city, they don’t exist in government records.

2. If people idled by the lockdown are supposed to live off savings, what about all the marginal workers with few resources? What are they going to live on once their meager savings are gone?

3. Given the choice of obeying the lockdown rules and starving or slipping out of the city to find paid work somewhere else, how many migrant workers will choose to slip away?

4. Unlike the developed West, many people in China still have ancestral villages to return to, rural towns where their grandparents or or other close relatives live. If work has dried up and you’re fearful of catching a potentially lethal virus, wouldn’t it make sense to slip out of the city and make your way back to the village where you can hunker down until the epidemic blows over?

Since people who caught the virus may not know they’re a carrier, how will this migration not spread the disease to rural areas with few medical resources?

5. The typical city has about a week’s supply of food, fuel,

Questions Nobody Is Asking About Jeffrey Epstein

The Jeffrey Epstein case is notable for the ups and downs in media coverage it’s gotten over the years. Everybody, it seems, in New York society knew by 2000 that Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell were corrupting teenage girls, but the press wouldn’t cover it. Articles by New York in 2002 and Vanity Fair in 2003 alluded to it gently, while probing Epstein’s finances more closely. In 2005, the Palm Beach police investigated. The county prosecutor, Democrat Barry Krischer, wouldn’t prosecute for more than prostitution, so they went to the federal prosecutor, Republican Alexander Acosta, and got the FBI involved. Acosta’s office prepared an indictment, but before it was filed, he made a deal: Epstein agreed to plead guilty to a state law felony and receive a prison term of 18 months. In exchange, the federal interstate sex trafficking charges would not be prosecuted by Acosta’s office. Epstein was officially at the county jail for 13 months, where the county officials under Democratic Sheriff Ric Bradshaw gave him scandalously easy treatment, letting him spend his days outside, and letting him serve a year of probation in place of the last 5 months of his sentence. Acosta’s office complained, but it was a county jail, not a federal jail, so he was powerless.

Epstein was released, and various lawsuits were filed against him and settled out of court, presumably in exchange for silence. The media was quiet or complimentary as Epstein worked his way back into high society. Two books were written about the affair, and fell flat. The FBI became interested again around 2011 (a little known fact) and maybe things were happening behind the scenes, but the next big event was in 2018 when the Miami Herald published a series of investigative articles rehashing what had happened. In 2019 federal prosecutors indicted Epstein, he was put in jail, and he mysteriously died. Now, after much complaining in the press about how awful jails are and how many people commit suicide, things are quiet again, at least until the Justice Department and the State of Florida finish their investigation a few years from now. (For details and more links, see “Investigation: Jeffrey Epstein”at Medium.com and “Jeffrey Epstein” at Wikipedia.)

New Questions Arise About 5G Energy Efficiency as Experts Report Overheating of Base Stations and Phones

By B.N. Frank

The case against 5G keeps growing environmentally and otherwise.  Now engineers are reporting that 5G base stations are overheating.  They aren’t the only ones.  Reports indicate that operating 5G on phones and modems overheats them too.

Research indicates that exposure to 5G causes the body temperature to increase in people and insects.  Of course, using additional energy to cool everything and everybody down can resolve overheating.  Of course, suggesting this should have many environmentalists soiling their pants.

From Semiconductor Engineering:

Inefficient conversion of RF to digital and continuous connectivity issues are causing thermal problems, threatening signal integrity and reliability.

Before 5G can be deployed commercially on a large scale, engineers have to solve some stubborn problems—including how to make a hot technology a whole lot cooler.

Unfortunately, 5G is already being deployed across the U.S. and around the world despite these issues and MANY OTHERS.

17 Unanswered Questions on the 17th Anniversary of 9/11 | Light On Conspiracies – Revealing the Agenda

17 Unanswered Questions on the 17th Anniversary of 9/11 | Light On Conspiracies – Revealing the Agenda

13-09-18 07:59:00,

Kent Kobersteen, former Director of Photography of National Geographic

“The pictures are by Robert Clark, and were shot from the window of his studio in Brooklyn. Others shot the second plane hitting the tower, but I think there are elements in Clark’s photographs that make them special. To me the wider shots not only give context to the tragedy, but also portray the normalcy of the day in every respect except at the Towers. I generally prefer tighter shots, but in this case I think the overall context of Manhattan makes a stronger image. And, the fact that Clark shot the pictures from his studio indicates how the events of 9/11 literally hit home. I find these images very compelling—in fact, whenever I see them they force me to study them in great detail.”

As the 911 17th anniversary approaches, it is worth casting our minds back to that “catastrophic and catalyzing event”, that new Pearl Harbor (in the words of the PNAC neocons), which has cemented the false idea of a War on Terror into the public mind. More and more researchers and facts have emerged since the first few years after the event. Thanks to the work of people like Dr. Judy Wood and Rebekah Roth, we now have a very good idea of the how and who behind the biggest false flag attack in world history. Below are 17 unanswered questions designed to briefly reacquaint you with the shocking anomalies, inconsistencies and holes in the official narrative during this 911 17th anniversary.

1. If Osama bin Laden was the mastermind of 9/11, why was he never formally charged with the crime?

Guess the FBI just plain old forgot or were too busy conducting sting operations (foiling terror plots they themselves orchestrated) to actually charge bin Laden with the grandest crime in history. By the way, what were representatives from the Bush family (ex-CIA chief and President George H. W.) doing meeting with representatives from the bin Ladens (Shafig bin Laden, brother of Osama) the day before 9/11 in New York Ritz-Carlton Hotel? How did everyone seem to know it was bin Laden before the dust had even settled,

Russia Has 14 Questions On “Fabricated” Skripal Case

Russia Has 14 Questions On “Fabricated” Skripal Case

31-03-18 08:59:00,

Now, with the false idea that novichok is exclusive to Russia and that propaganda is firmly embedded in the MSM-addicted public consciousness, can we be surprised if in the very near future there is a false flag with large group of innocent Syrians found dead of novichok poisoning?     

The Skripal poisonings – French fingerprints, or those of the  usual suspects – Mossad, MI6, CIA?

9/11  – in-your-face; ruthless; arrogant; grandiose; two planes/three buildings; architectural and engineering evidence; quick destruction of crucial material evidence; numerous major inconsistencies and impossibilities with the official narrative;  admissions and conflicting statements of various suspects; tightly controlled sham investigation and fake media deflection; lots of lose ends in the operation.

Cui bono ? Israel ME advancement; Islam bashing; Justification for DHS & expansion; Afghanistan resource control (mainly heroin) and pipelines; regime change ops in the ME; etc.

Principal suspects?  Dov Zakheim,  Larry Silverstein, Ariel Sharon Benjamin Netanyahu, Ehud Olmert, Rudolph Giuliani, Richard Sheirer, Jules Kroll, Jerome Hauer, Ezra Harel, Menachem Atzman, Michael Chertoff,  Marvin Burns, Mica Macover, Jacob Alexander, Mark Regev, Dominic Suter, George H. W. Bush, George W. Bush, George Tenet, Condoleezza Rice ++ many many more.

Fingerprints?  Definitely Mossad with support from major US agencies and elites. (For anyone with lingering doubts who has not reviewed the facts, a good summation is found in Made in Israel – 9//11).

Vegas massacre – in-your-face; ruthless; arrogant; grandiose; one gunman/multiple shooters; quick destruction of crucial material evidence; numerous major inconsistencies and impossibilities with the official narrative; tightly controlled sham investigation and fake media, lots of loose ends in the operation.

Cui bono? Sheldon Adelson/Michael Chertoff, George Soros, DHS – gun control; etc., etc.

Principal suspects ? Major US agencies, Sheldon Adelson, George Soros

Fingerprints?  – Probably Mossad with support from major US agencies and elites. Such back ops are generally farmed out to catspaw foreign agencies. The work does not look like MI6 as there are too many loose ends. Also, the arrogance with so many loose ends in the operaton and contempt for public scrutiny and common sense with the official narratives is similar to 9/11.

Skripal poisonings – in-your-face; ruthless; arrogant; grandiose amplification; Skripal’s returning to Russia anyway; saying it was novichok which can be produced anywhere and therefore Russian is like saying if he was poisoned with a mouldy Russian perogy he was poisoned by the Russians;

30 Questions That Journalists Should Be Asking About The Skripal Case

30 Questions That Journalists Should Be Asking About The Skripal Case

26-03-18 07:58:00,

Authored by Rob Slane via TheBlogMire.com,

There are a lot of issues surrounding the case of Sergei and Yulia Skripal which, at the time of writing, are very unclear and rather odd. There may well be good and innocent explanations for some or even all of them. Then again there may not. This is why it is crucial for questions to be asked where, as yet, there are either no answers or deeply unsatisfactory ones.

Some people will assume that this is conspiracy theory territory. It is not that, for the simple reason that I have no credible theory – conspiracy or otherwise – to explain all the details of the incident in Salisbury from start to finish, and I am not attempting to forward one. I have no idea who was behind this incident, and I continue to keep an open mind to a good many possible explanations.

However, there are a number of oddities in the official narrative, which do demand answers and clarifications. You don’t have to be a conspiracy theorist or a defender of the Russian state to see this. You just need a healthy scepticism, “of a type developed by all inquiring minds!”

Below are 30 of the most important questions regarding the case and the British Government’s response, which are currently either wholly unanswered, or which require clarification.

1. Why have there been no updates on the condition of Sergei and Yulia Skripal in the public domain since the first week of the investigation?

2. Are they still alive?

3. If so, what is their current condition and what symptoms are they displaying?

4. In a recent letter to The Times, Stephen Davies, Consultant in Emergency Medicine at Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust, wrote the following:

“Sir, Further to your report (“Poison exposure leaves almost 40 needing treatment”, Mar 14) may I clarify that no patients have experienced nerve agent poisoning in Salisbury and there have only ever been three patients with significant poisoning.”

His claim that “no patients have experienced nerve agent poisoning in Salisbury” is remarkably odd, as it appears to flatly contradict the official narrative.
