A Virus Does What a Virus Does

The Coetzee Peak

Meet Angelique Coetzee, MD the Chairwoman of the South African Medical Association and the first person to identify the Omicron Variant.

More about Dr. Coetzee later but first a little bit of epidemiology.

Mortality

Mortality is what epidemiologists call a “lagging indicator” because it “lags” behind getting sick — first you get sick and then you die but not always. Most of the time you recover. Regardless of the illness we always want to avoid death.

Much has been made of the mortality associated with COVID-19. In fact, the CDC, FDA, Pfizer, Collins, Fauci, Walensky, the legacy media, and the world’s greatest epidemiologists at Facebook and Twitter all made sure that we focused all of attention - every waking moment of it not on just the number of cases but on the death that they caused. AND THEN — they came to our rescue with a “vaccine”.

So — just how horrible was the mortality rate and how effective was the vaccine at reducing it?

The Data

The table below was derived from CDC’s data on COVID-19 cases and mortality. Typically, the CDC presents their data as a “seven-day moving average” or the number of cases or deaths per “100,000 population”. The CDC also provides the number of cases and deaths for each day which is embedded in their graphical presentations.

This morning, over my first cup of coffee I asked myself this question: When COVID-19 was at its absolute worst just how bad was it?

To answer that question I found those days on which cases and mortality were at their peak. That data is in the following table which also presents the mortality rate (percentage of deaths as a function of cases) and the lag between the peak number of cases and the peak number of deaths.

The first thing I want to draw your attention to is that there were FOUR peaks in mortality. The second thing I want you to notice is that the mortality rate decreased over time. As an aside the average lag time was about 14.5 days; a not unexpected finding.

It can be argued that the decrease in the mortality rate was a function of the “vaccine”. The problem with that argument is that Emergency Use Authorization for new vaccine wasn’t granted until December 11, 2020 and by March only about 10% of the US population had been vaccinated by August it was estimated that about only 50% of the US population had been vaccinated. And by August 2021 we were learning that the efficacy of the “vaccine” was waning.

So did the vaccine reduce mortality between July 2020 and January 2021? Most likely not.

How about between January 2021 and September 2021? Maybe but because the efficacy of the vaccine was waning over that time period coupled with the fact that it took two doses over a six-month period to be considered “fully vaccinated” it is also not likely that the vaccine contributed to a decrease in mortality.

So what was causing mortality rates to decrease? SARS-CoV-2 itself caused the decrease in mortality. How could that be? Its a matter of basic virology — a virus that kills its host doesn’t stick around very long. In order to prevent self-destruction viruses mutate to more infective forms that are less lethal. That is what the table above shows.

How do we know that to be true? Ask Dr. Coetzee

Angelique Coetzee, MD

As mentioned earlier Dr. Coetzee was the first to bring what we now know to be the Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2 to our attention:

Dr. Angelique Coetzee, a private practitioner and chair of South African Medical Association, told Reuters that on Nov. 18 she noticed seven patients at her clinic who had symptoms different from the dominant Delta variant, albeit "very mild".

How was this news handled? Well, in the United States we were told that this new variant meant that we ALL need to be vaccinated — particularly our children. And effort was made to marginalize Dr. Coetzee’s findings. Yet, there’s the data and it shows precisely what Dr. Coetzee told the world — there was a new variant but the its effect was “very mild” because mortality dropped like a stone.

The push for vaccinations to “combat” Omicron is an egregious example of how our public health “leaders” and our political “leaders” and our legacy media and technocrats manipulated the data to push a confused population to be “vaccinated” against a SARS-CoV-2 variant knowing full well that vaccine would be completely ineffective against Omicron and perhaps every other variant.

The only thing that wasn’t ineffective was natural immunity.
