As near as I can tell, all this hysterical reportage about the ever-spiralling number of "confirmed cases" is more or less meaningless. What counts is the number of deaths. I'm fully aware that this could yet change, but certainly up to this point, the number of deaths from the coronavirus worldwide could readily be folded into overall influenza mortality, and nobody would notice.
Of course, it's easy to dismiss the pot-addled hillbilly up there in the north-woods, because, well... he's a pot-addled hillbilly after all.
But check out this collection of top-shelf immunologists, pathologists, virologists and others whose thinking is closer to mine than it is to the official narrative.
As John Pilger, another corona sceptic, points out, the world is utterly unmoved by thousands of deaths every day due to malnutrition, but we've shut down the global economy for a relative handful of coronavirus deaths.
As I've maintained from the outset, this crisis is about much more than a virus.
