Guest Post by Ron Paul
Just a week or so ago the mainstream media and thousands representing the “medical community” told us we must throw out the “stay-at-home” orders and go to the streets to protest the death of George Floyd at the hands of the police. The Covid-19 virus will not bother people who are protesting this injustice, they said. The virus only attacks people leaving their homes to protest the stay-at-home orders.
Now, after thousands of businesses – many of them black-owned – have been reduced to rubble and innocent people in the inner cities no longer have anywhere to shop for the basic necessities of life, the mainstream media has backed off of its non-stop coverage of the protests. Suddenly last week they all simultaneously embraced a new fear story to terrify the masses: a “second wave” of coronavirus was among us. It was targeting those states that dared to “open up” their economies and begin a return to relatively normal lives.
Texas, Florida, and California were singled out to scare the rest of the country into thinking that if you dare leave your homes you will catch coronavirus and die. There was a “spike” in coronavirus “cases” they claimed. Funny, just a month or so ago they were demanding that we massively increase testing, which would produce just that “spike” in coronavirus cases they are now using to scare authorities into reinstating the incredibly destructive stay-at-home orders.
In the county here in Texas that includes Houston, the young judge who somehow seized the power to shut down the third largest city in the United States warns us that she may again shut down Fort Bend County to fight this “second wave” of cases. She even threatened to again pour millions of dollars into a “field hospital” at a Houston football stadium that did not see a single patient in the “first wave” of coronavirus. It’s hard not to wonder which politically-connected companies are reaping millions in contracts for an obviously un-needed hospital. Thousands of hospital beds in Houston are vacant, while cancer patients have been refused their screenings and desperately needed treatments.
As former Congressman David Stockman points out, the actual coronavirus numbers do not in any way support the media assertion that a “second wave” of infection is cresting over Texas. Stockman informs us that in Texas the “reported infected case rate of 256 per 100,000 is just 10 percent of the real ‘hot spot’ rate of 2,477 per 100,000 in the five boroughs of New York City; and its mortality rate of 6.2 per 100,000 population is just 3 percent of New York City’s 196 per 100,000 rate.”
There are no “hot spots” in Texas. It’s just more media hype.
It’s funny that they don’t dare mention Georgia, which has also opened its economy and has seen no “spike” at all.
The same people who were demanding more testing are now screaming that we must shut the economy down again because these tests – which are notoriously unreliable – are showing more coronavirus cases. This is a disease that 99.9 percent of the people who are infected with survive! But 40 million people out of work and the thousands of lives that will end due to the shutdown are never mentioned.
There is something else going on here and it is in no way related to public health.

the stock market will tell us how to behave.
when it goes up, we can feel free to go out an riot
when it goes down, we must stay inside, wear masks, and hide from the virus.
the virus is not able to attack the produce sold at walmarts,
but beware of the produce sold at local farmers markets, that shit is loaded with virus, my governor told me.
when I feel happy, all I have to do, to correct this bad think condition, is to turn on the TV, my governor will be there to make me feel sad and normal again.
I’ll wear a mask and get the vaccine when the NFL’s Roger Goodell washes Colin Kaepernick’s feet at he 50 yard line.
careful what you say ,goodell might do that to keep his job–
Goodell would probably suck the bastards cock at the 50 yard line and take a cum shot down his throat.
Ain’t never getting any CoVid-19(84) “vaccine” no matter what.
However, I would love to see Goodell, in an act of contrition, apology and subjewgation, on his knees fellating Kaepernick while in a “Redskins” uniform, Yeah, in a “redskins” uniform.
FUcking God damned disgusting vile hypocrites.
Where these idiots fail is that a virus has to run it’s course, there is no vaccine! This entire Coronavirus is nothing but another DNC false flag, everything these cocksuckers do FAILS!
How can there be a”second wave”, when there wasn’t a first wave?
Fine point.
If it’s not a hoax, then the ‘second wave’ will consist mainly of rioters. They certainly haven’t been social distancing.
MSM keeps telling us that the Covid-19 is on an uptick, yet all of these thousands of DNC paid idiot terrorist’s, that all look like they haven’t bathed in a month do not get it! Yeah right! It’s all amateur hour with the DNC, they know that they are done!
I use to read your site years ago, very informative. I was very impressed with your insights. Then I discovered you sold out to the MSM gang, or shall I say you got an offer you couldn’t refuse. What a pity
Are you a retard? Ron Paul is as far from MSM as you can get. What a pity you don’t have two brain cells to rub together.
It’s a bad influenza, we’re lucky. The Chinese could have released a bad one on us. All bullshit as we’ve seen, though quarantining all Chinese people and products would be good for us, they’re enemies to us aftèr all.
