German Official Leaks Report Denouncing Corona as ‘A Global False Alarm'
2020-06-04
[StrategicCulture] Germany’s federal government and mainstream media are engaged in damage control after a report that challenges the established Corona narrative leaked from the interior ministry.

Some of the report key passages are:

  • The dangerousness of Covid-19 was overestimated: probably at no point did the danger posed by the new virus go beyond the normal level.

  • The people who die from Corona are essentially those who would statistically die this year, because they have reached the end of their lives and their weakened bodies can no longer cope with any random everyday stress (including the approximately 150 viruses currently in circulation).

  • Worldwide, within a quarter of a year, there has been no more than 250,000 deaths from Covid-19, compared to 1.5 million deaths [25,100 in Germany] during the influenza wave 2017/18.

  • The danger is obviously no greater than that of many other viruses. There is no evidence that this was more than a false alarm.

  • A reproach could go along these lines: During the Corona crisis the State has proved itself as one of the biggest producers of Fake News.


So far, so bad. But it gets worse.

The report focuses on the "manifold and heavy consequences of the Corona measures" and warns that these are "grave".

More people are dying because of state-imposed Corona-measures than they are being killed by the virus.

The reason is a scandal in the making:

A Corona-focused German healthcare system is postponing life-saving surgery and delaying or reducing treatment for non-Corona patients.

Berlin in Denial Mode. The scientists fight back.

Initially, the government tried to dismiss the report as "the work of one employee", and its contents as "his own opinion" — while the journalists closed ranks, no questions asked, with the politicians.

But the 93-pages report titled "Analysis of the Crisis Management" has been drafted by a scientific panel appointed by the interior ministry and composed by external medical experts from several German universities.

The report was the initiative of a department of the interior ministry called Unit KM4 and in charge with the "Protection of critical infrastructures".

This is also where the German official turned whistleblower, Stephen Kohn, work(ed), and from where he leaked it to the media.

The authors of the report issued a joint press release already on Mai 11th, berating the government for ignoring expert advise, and asking for the interior minister to officially comment upon the experts joint statement:

"Therapeutic and preventive measures should never bring more harm than the illness itself. Their aim should be to protect the risk groups, without endegearing the availibilty of medical care and the health of the whole population, as it is unfortunately occurring"

"We in the scientific and medical praxis are experiencing the secondary damages of the Corona-measures on our patients on a dialy basis."

"We therefore ask the Federal Ministry of the Interior, to comment upon our press release, and we hope for a pertinent discussion regarding the [Corona] measures, one that leads to the best possible solution for the whole population"

At the time of writing, the German government had yet to react.

But the facts are — sadly — vindicating the medical experts’ worries.

On Mai 23 the German newspaper Das Bild titled: "Dramatic consequences of the Corona-Measures: 52,000 Cancer Ops delayed."

Inside, a aeading medical doctor warns that "we will feel the side-effects of the Corona crisis for years".

Shooting the Whistleblower. Ignoring the Message.

As Der Spiegel reported on Mai 15th: "Stephen Kohn [the whistleblower] has since been suspended from duty. He was advised to obtain a lawyer and his work laptop was confiscated."

Kohn had originally leaked the report on May 9th to the liberal-conservative magazine Tichys Einblick one of Germany's most popular alternative media outlets....

#10  Not good #9. Scars the lungs. Seven years of that and COPD close behind. Two lungs to survive damage but in time you will be compromised. In my opinion it starts with sinus drainage. Control sinus you prevent infection spreading to ears, throat or lungs. When cleared up from sinus infection you must go 2-3 months without re-occurrence. Infection loves low oxygen levels, poor circulation, acid chemistry and normal body temperature. Loves porous bone in sinus and atrium of middle ear.

#9  I got "the flu" in early November. I have never had the flu in my life that I have noticed. Pneumonia, hell yes, every damned year since RVN. But I can usually shake it on my own, although a few times I needed medication. So from then it went flu-like, flu-ish, hurt all over and weak, pneumonia, then flu-ish again. By the end of March I was okay, although I lost some weight. I am still fine. I never went to the doctor, but he called me every few days, so we 'statused'.

#8  Many in our extended local family (including me) had a bad run of 'bronchitis' in late January/ early February this year. Sounds like same symptoms you had, Bob. And yes, at least one person from each nuclear group traveled about the country by air just prior.

I had low fever for 18-hrs, but felt better in about 3-4 days. The chest congestion hung around for a good 3-4 weeks, though. My oldest boy got it the worst. He was out for about 8 days, including high fever.

#6  I had something in early December of last year, something i had never had before. started with semi-sore throat and then moved quickly down to lungs. I never felt bad, in fact I worked through it. although when I took deep breaths I could hear 'rattling' in my lungs. I did use it as an excuse to opt out of a Christmas party, so there was that.

CoVid-19? who knows. But no one in the family has been sick since then, and my wife has been working and traveling by air during the entire 'lockdown'

#2  If it is true that the virus may have been around since November 2019, why weren't the county morgues just piling up with dead bodies and nursing homes dealing with some mystery killer affliction? Where was the "alarm"? There were roughly 2-3 months worth of flights out of China, no hint of people keeling over then. A plandemic or shamdemic indeed.

#1  Socialism works - all the counterexamples you cite weren't real Socialism.

Islam is Religion of Peace. Islamophobia is racism.

Coronavirus is a hoax.
