On 3 October, Yahoo published an article with the headline: “These 11 states Now Have the Worst Covid Outbreaks in the US.” Seeing this headline, an inexperienced reader reasonably could assume that a very dangerous disease has spread across America. If one examines the article more thoroughly, however, the fear narrative quickly falls apart. The...

FAT CHANCE COVID WON’T KILL YOU
Since the onset of the COVID War, when some New York City hospitals were being filled with coronavirus patients, the Trends Journal cited medical research concluding that among the most vulnerable victims were those suffering from obesity, Type 2 diabetes, respiratory conditions, and heart disease. In the 21 April Trends Journal, we reported: A new...
FACE MASKS: POLITICS COUNTS, SCIENCE DOESN’T
As noted, the Trends Journal has been reporting for several months on the scientific evidence disputing the political mandates of mask wearing. A report, “Why Face Masks Don’t Work: A Revealing Review,” by Dr. John Hardie was published by the Oral Health Group in Canada in October 2016. Dr. Hardie has been investigating infectious disease...
MASK UP AND DIE?
On 26 September, the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS) released their updated report on the “COVID outbreak” and the efficacy of various methods employed to deal with the virus. The report’s alarming conclusions are foreshadowed by the exposé’s opening sentence: “Covid-19 is as politically-charged as it is infectious.” The AAPS report contains a...
“GIVE ME LIBERTY” … OR GIVE ME MASK
Leaders speak, Presstitutes parrot them, and the proletariat follow. Lacking the capacity and courage to Think for Themselves or too cowardly to do so, the same class of masses that Heiled Hitler, saluted Stalin, and marched to Mussolini now obediently believe and obey what’s fed to them by their government masters and media whores who...
VIRUS CASES UP IN EU, HOSPITALIZATIONS DOWN
It has been widely reported that much of Europe is undergoing a second wave of coronavirus infections with more citizens being diagnosed in some areas than during the height of the first round of infections, which led to widespread lockdowns. The jump in infections, however, has not translated to an increase in deaths and hospitalizations...
AMERICANS GET COLD FEET OVER COVID-19 VACCINE
Americans seem to have reservations about being first in line for any approved vaccination for COVID-19, according to a recent Axios-Ipsos poll. The poll showed only 13 percent of Americans would be willing to take the vaccine upon rollout. Joe Biden and his running mate, Senator Kamala Harris, have raised suspicions about the reliability of...
MELBOURNE TO EASE VIRUS LOCKDOWN RESTRICTIONS
Victoria’s Premier Daniel Andrews announced Sunday that Melbourne’s hotly contested coronavirus lockdown orders would be eased and its curfew lifted after a significant drop in new cases. Andrews was roundly criticized for putting Melbourne and other parts of the country under a Level 4 lockdown at the beginning of August while trying to get a grip on...
SWEDES CONTINUE TO AVOID WORST OF VIRUS OUTBREAK
The Associated Press last week described a scene in Stockholm, Sweden, which surely would make health officials in most Western nations squirm. The wire service described a train pulling into a subway station in the central part of the city and groups of people bustling about without wearing those now-ubiquitous surgical masks worn across the...
SPANISH HEALTH OFFICIALS DON’T AGREE ON NEW LOCKDOWNS
Clashes over new virus restrictions played out in Madrid last week as local health officials refused to comply with new guidelines recommended by the country’s central government, according to reports. The health system in Spain is unique in that each of the country’s 17 regional governments has its own health care system, according to the...
