SA’s Covid-19 response just got weirder – Brian Pottinger
28th March 2022 by Editor BizNews
Veteran South African journalist, Brian Pottinger, asks some very searching questions here, sparked by what seems to be SA’s most absurd anti-Covid-19 measure yet. That is the branding of SARSCoV2 as a ‘Group 3 Hazardous Biological Agent’, which widens the scope of employers to enforce vaccine mandates in spite of an early clutch of vaccine-mandate-favouring CCMA rulings. Like many good journalists, Pottinger goes to motive and doesn’t like the conclusions he reaches. First, however, he paints what appears to be a convincing context, complete with examples of governments abusing their powers by putting the fear of death into their populations. Add to this what we’ve learnt along the way and how our authoritarian response blindly follows the global pack and we’re looking at a darker narrative: a pandemic management history rotten with dishonesty at every level. Maybe that’s why the going has got even weirder, posits Pottinger. – Chris Bateman
Vaccine mandates just got weirder
By Brian Pottinger*
Amid all the justified public rage, suspicion and ridicule about the latest fiasco of the amended Covid-19 regulations, the most alarming aspect seems to have slipped by almost unnoticed. President Cyril Ramaphosa’s government has unprecedently branded SARSCoV2 a Group 3 Hazardous Biological Agent, thus giving wide powers to employers to force their workers to be vaccinated against an expiring coronavirus in the last stages of a dying guided panic.
Brian Pottinger
Prior to the Gazette on 16 March 2022, Business Unity South Africa (BUSA) had quietly indicated they would no longer seek a Constitutional Court ruling on the legality of forcing employees to be vaccinated under duress. They knew what was coming and probably did not want a judgment anyway. They rolled over, were typically complicit.
Section 43 of the Occupational Health and Safety Act, 1993 (Act No 85 of 1993) was designed to protect workers in businesses where hazardous biological agents are “produced, processed, used, handled, stored or transported”. Incredibly, this provision has now been applied to an endemic coronavirus and extended to all employees everywhere.

The decision might yet prove one of the most fateful of President Ramaphosa’s deeply challenged presidency and a test of the good faith of South Africa’s big employers during the last two years. Nothing better indicates President Ramaphosa’s insistence, and that of his rapidly narrowing and secretive band of advisers, to force mandatory vaccines come what may. Why?
Let us quickly summarise what we have gathered about the SARSCoV2 outbreak of 2020 and its symptoms known as Covid-19.
We know the death and infection projections of the scientific academic scientists who got us all locked up were wildly, maliciously and fantastically wrong. Professor Mark Wodehouse, one of the top advisers to the UK Government during the initial panic, described them in his jaw-dropping book, The Year the World Went Mad (Sandstone), as not remotely plausible.
We have learnt that data collected by the World Health Organisation (WHO) and its reporting agencies was manipulated to exaggerate infections and deaths. In many countries those statistics are now being qualified, revised down or disclaimed. Go check the WHO’s dashboard.

We know excess deaths, once all allocated to Covid-19, have proven to be equal only to a severe decadal coronavirus when controlled for natural mortality growth, misdiagnosis, routine excess winter deaths and the huge number of collateral deaths caused by the criminal withdrawal or delay of medical cover to the public, ostensibly to serve the Covid-19 patients who never arrived. These friendly-fire deaths are now quantifiable through the huge increases in non-Covid-19 insurance death claims.

And we know the status of PCR and RT-PCR testing kits, the go-to tool supporting the narrative of mass species extinction, was withdrawn for emergency use by the US Federal Drug Agency (FDA) in July last year and from 1 January this year, the CDC no longer uses them. Research showed they were unreliable indicators of infection. South African authorities insist on still using the kits. Why?
www.cdc.gov/csels/dls/locs/2021/07-21-20...CoV-2_Testing_1.html
Professor John Ionnidis of Stanford University Maryland researched 61 studies of sero-prevalence, an analytical system based on measuring the pathogen level in a population through blood serum as opposed to cooked official stats and flawed test kits. His report put the global infection fatality rate (IFR) at 0.15%, equal to the Asian Flu Pandemic of 1957 or the Hong Kong Flu outbreak of 1968, which the species evidently survived without extraordinary measures. It was 0.05% for those younger than 70 years old, less than a common flu. Since then, fatality rates have dropped even further as milder forms of the virus naturally and predictably evolve. No credible scientific challenge has been raised to his findings.

www.who.int/bulletin/online_first/BLT.20.265892.pdf
Now let us get to vaccines.
First, we were told the immunity offered by the vaccines was more potent than natural infection. Then it was not, but perhaps equal. Next, we were told the vaccines would prevent infections. Then they would not: patently, because some of the most highly vaccinated countries showed the highest reinfection.
Now we are told, most recently by President Ramaphosa, the scientific evidence shows they reduce the intensity of infection and likely death. Really? The evidence, in fact, shows the data is not controlled for age and cause of death or time since last inoculation nor, critically, for a decline in fatalities due to a naturally and predictably diminishing pathogenic intensity of the evolving virus. Again, we are told we need 70 per cent population vaccination to reach national immunity. Then we are told it is not enough that 80 per cent of us have in fact been infected.
Intriguingly, no manufacturer of these treatments calls their product a vaccine: that would breach the trade practice and drug control regulations in every jurisdiction in the world. Only the promoters of the official narrative, including the South African Government, mainstream media and employers continue to mislead.
The containment measures adopted by panicked governments, ours included, have veered from the ludicrous to the catastrophic. A credible trination research project published last month by researchers at Johns Hopkins, Lund University and the Danish Centre for Political Studies shows total lock-downs with all their devastating consequences prevented at most 0.2% of deaths compared to simply trusting people to do the right thing. Boris Johnson’s lot, according to the research, caused untold and lasting economic, social, political and psychological damage to save at most 100 lives. South Africa had one of the most severe lockdowns in the world. For what?
sites.krieger.jhu.edu/iae/files/2022/01/...VID-19-Mortality.pdf
The United States Supreme Court, on 13 January 2022, ruled that only Congress can mandate compulsory vaccination and not the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s Emergency Standard on Vaccination (OSHA ETS), thus opening the possibility of humungous lawsuits by employees forced under duress to get the shot, a signal warning to South African employers as to what will happen when the Constitutional Court certainly reverses these unconstitutional regulations by inferior legal bodies enacting administrative law.
www.natlawreview.com/article/us-supreme-...andates-osha-and-cms
Austria hastily scrapped its compulsory vaccination laws after a month as illegal and unworkable. Across the world, Covid-19 restrictions and vaccine mandates are being repealed in their entirety. Only six per cent of South Africans in a recent City Press poll supported tougher measures and other research showed a strong opposition amongst particularly Africans to compulsory vaccinations.
Investors in Pfizer and Moderna, meanwhile, are dumping their shares and heading for the hills: moneymen can unerringly sense when a good party is about to turn into a very, very nasty one.

In short, the orthodox version of the SARSCoV2 outbreak as historical epidemiology, virology and pandemic control is in piratical tatters.
Yet, incredibly and despite this long litany of bad science and worse faith during the SARSCoV2 outbreak, the memo seems not to have reached President Ramaphosa. His authoritarian new regulations now seek to hardwire arbitrary and dictatorial powers into the future life of the country on the back of a comprehensively and maliciously misrepresented viral outbreak. Why?
His government’s almost instinctive inclination to do the wrong thing at the wrong time may be one answer. A natural desire to hold onto all autocratic levers possible as we head for the usual violent turbulence of another democratic ANC internal leadership contest, may be the other.
After all, if the Chinese can use a suspiciously fortuitous Covid-19 resurgence to specifically target a secessionist Hong Kong, cripple high-tech supply routes to the west out of Shenzhen, close financial markets in Shanghai and lock up the cheeky Uyghurs and Tibetans, all just as China controversially supports an embattled ally against the West, what grand possibilities exist for us in the use of the terror brand here.
But there is another possible, darker reason for this madness. In a country where the biggest cause of death is the Big C – Corruption – and one with a pandemic management history rotten with dishonesty at every level, we are entitled to ask what lies behind these series of bizarre and irrational decisions and proposals.
The developing world has historically been the dumping ground for obsolete, surplus and redundant medicines by a pharmaceutical sector not always famed for its adherence to ethical practice. There are plenty of vaccines around urgently seeking recipients as developed world nations wind down their demand, patents are challenged and investors flee (not to mention the National Treasury wanting to know what the government is going to do about all those unused expiring vaccines and the R1.2bn Covid-19 emergency reception centre that nobody used). Will we become just another dreary developing world example of bought markets and sold consumers?
The biomedical market, more than most, is full of incestuous self-serving and vested interests. We know the familiar cycle: pharmaceutical companies pay for the research which identifies the diseases which gets the researchers appointed as advisers to governments who pass the laws which force the public to buy the cures. Press repeat. No conspiracy here: just good business. Are we sure our public policy decision-making has been free of such influences at the highest levels?
Catastrophic financial, social and political damage has been done to our society by the imposition of irrelevant, western-derived containment solutions by our ‘Me Too’ and one-size-fit-all epidemiological and virological advisers and their sponsors.
South African society is in a brittle and volatile mood; insurrection, as we know, is not notional. Does President Ramaphosa really want to impose draconian measures to combat an expiring virus in a way that will introduce a modern-day apartheid between the rich and employed, who are predominantly vaccinated, and the poor and unemployed, who are not? Is he willing to strike resonance with the bitterest living memory for many South Africans; bits of paper telling one where one can or cannot go in one’s own country, who can be employed and who not? And for what? For whom?
There is only one way to finally get to the truth of this most extraordinary moment in modern history, our medieval moment. Science and the mainstream media have patently failed us. The courts must judge on these measures. The government must also appoint a judicial commission of inquiry to investigate the nature of the outbreak, its management, the key players involved and their interests, victims, beneficiaries, lessons and above all, the conduct of the biomedical sciences and big business over the last two years.

He does not belong to any organisation related to Covid-19 nor to any vax or anti-vax institution or to any political party.

BREAKING NEWS............................................
www.aap.com.au/factcheck/henry-kissinger...on-control-is-false/
Henry Kissinger’s claim about using vaccinations for social and population control is false
FactCheck August 7, 2019
THE STATEMENT
AAP FactCheck examined a Facebook post from August 2, 2019 that featured an image of former US Secretary of State and 1973 Nobel Peace Prize winner Dr Henry Kissinger together with long quote about vaccination attributed to him from “a speech to the World Health Organisation Council on Eugenics Feb 25, 2009.” The quote infers that mandatory vaccination is a highly-profitable tool for social and population control.
This Facebook post containing a quote about using vaccinations to control the population was falsely attributed to former US Secretary of State and 1973 Nobel Peace Prize winner Dr Henry Kissinger.
The quote states: “Once the herd accepts mandatory forcible vaccination, it’s game over! They will accept anything – forcible blood or organ donation – for the ‘greater good’. We can genetically modify children and sterilize them – for the ‘greater good’. Control sheep minds and you control the herd. Vaccine makers stand to make billions, and many of you in this room today are investors. It’s a big win-win! We thin out the herd and the herd pays us for providing extermination services. Now what’s for lunch, huh?”
The post was accompanied by the following statement: “I went to share this and got a warning if I did so I screen shot it and post and see what happens. Freedom of speech lol, it’s like we live in North Korea.”
The post had been shared over 80 times and attracted over 25 reactions.
The same post was also shared on Facebook in America on May 6, 2019 with over 70 shares here and again on July 21, 2019 here as well as in March in Canada here.
THE ANALYSIS
Henry Kissinger came to America aged 15 with his German-Jewish family in 1938 after Adolf Hitler came to power. He studied at Harvard and worked at Harvard University from 1954-1971 in the Department of Government and the Center for International Affairs. He won the 1973 Nobel Peace Prize for negotiating the ceasefires contained in the Paris Peace Accords on “Ending the War and Restoring Peace in Vietnam”. He served as US Secretary of State from 1973-77 and wrote many books and articles on US foreign policy, international affairs and diplomatic history. He’s chairman of his own international consulting firm, Kissinger Associates.
AAP FactCheck found no reference to a February 25, 2009 statement made by Dr Kissinger in his speech and interview website archives.
President Nixon (left) appointed Henry Kissinger (right) as his Secretary of State while also keeping him in the role of National Security adviser.
The closest speech to the stated date was delivered by Dr Kissinger to the 45th Munich Security Conference on February 6, 2009, when he spoke about nuclear weapons. There was no mention of the quote posted on Facebook or about vaccinations, the herd or forcible blood and organ donation.
There was another Kissinger speech on April 26, 2009 made at the Trilateral Commission Tokyo Plenary Meeting titled ‘The Intellectual Underpinnings of the Trilateral Partnership in the 21st Century’. Again there was no mention of the quote posted on Facebook, vaccinations, the herd or forcible blood and organ donation.
The only document authored by or quoting Dr Kissinger AAP FactCheck could source about population control was a 123-page National Security Study Memorandum dated December 10, 1974 and declassified by the White House in 1989. Titled ‘Implications of Worldwide Population Growth. For U.S. Security and Overseas Interests (THE KISSINGER REPORT)’, it contains no mention of the quote on Facebook or any reference to vaccinations, the herd etc.
AAP FactCheck found the forum where Dr Kissinger was alleged to have made the statement – the World Health Organization Council on Eugenics – did not exist.
A World Health Organization (WHO) spokesperson Christian Lindmeier told PolitiFact fact-checking website in June, 2019 there was no record in the WHO archives of the speech or any “World Health Organization Council on Eugenics” forum.
“We have no records of any such speech,” Mr Lindmeier advised PolitiFact in an email. “Please also note that there is no such ‘Council’ as claimed in the statement, respectively a related meme.”
THE VERDICT
Based on this evidence AAP FactCheck found the quote attributed to Dr Kissinger promoting vaccinations as a tool for social and population control to be false.

Again there was no mention of the quote posted on Facebook, vaccinations, the herd or forcible blood and organ donation.
The only document authored by or quoting Dr Kissinger AAP FactCheck could source about population control was a 123-page National Security Study Memorandum dated December 10, 1974 and declassified by the White House in 1989. Titled ‘Implications of Worldwide Population Growth. For U.S. Security and Overseas Interests (THE KISSINGER REPORT)’, it contains no mention of the quote on Facebook or any reference to vaccinations, the herd etc.
AAP FactCheck found the forum where Dr Kissinger was alleged to have made the statement – the World Health Organization Council on Eugenics – did not exist.
A World Health Organization (WHO) spokesperson Christian Lindmeier told PolitiFact fact-checking website in June, 2019 there was no record in the WHO archives of the speech or any “World Health Organization Council on Eugenics” forum.
“We have no records of any such speech,” Mr Lindmeier advised PolitiFact in an email. “Please also note that there is no such ‘Council’ as claimed in the statement, respectively a related meme.”
THE VERDICT
Based on this evidence AAP FactCheck found the quote attributed to Dr Kissinger promoting vaccinations as a tool for social and population control to be false.
FALSE – The Facebook post is false.

Will one of my more learned colleagues please help me understand something...
We are still required to wear a mask when indoors like in a mall...but when we go into a restaurant that is in a mall, we can take off our masks...does this virus act in such a discerning / discriminatory manner as to keep those in the restaurants safe but expose those just outside walking around in the same indoor mall to greater risk?

In theory I think the idea is that one only takes of the mask for eating / drinking - but of course in practice is works differently - anyway logic not a strong point

Re: Fears and thoughts in South Africa

So, even if you take the mask off briefly while you are eating / drinking, the virus discerns not to infect one as you are busy with an essential activity? I think I've got it !!
In all seriousness, this has long since become a joke...the other question that I have that is still unanswered is as follows:
When an vaccinated persons gets infected / tests positive as per unreliable PCR test, how do they definitively determine who infected them or how they got infected? Their fellow vaccinated or, as per perpetuated narrative, an unvaccinated person? I'm not talking probabilities, I'm talking definitively...or is it just wild speculation to push the "vaccines"?
Scientists get research funding from Big Pharma so when the piper called the tune, they played, danced, sung for their supper...and Big Pharma and politicians made billions in return...nice quid pro quo...

vaccinations work. look at smallpox and polio. surely there are far more vexing issues than covid regulations to concern a person. such as the proposed new health insurance ? for starters ? what the anc have planned there is a total train smash .

3 years 2 months agovaccinations work. look at smallpox and polio. surely there are far more vexing issues than covid regulations to concern a person. such as the proposed new health insurance ? for starters ? what the anc have planned there is a total train smash .
I agree vaccinations work...smallpox, measles, polio, etc...just don't think we should be equating the current wannabes that our rulers are pushing to those that actually work as these do not prevent infection, transmission, hospitalisation or death but provide temporary alleviation of symptoms should one get infected...
All the other vaccines have innoculated whilst these lessen the impact of...
As I've stated before, case fatality rate is under 1% for under 65's...so the "vaccines" for under 65's improve, on average, your survivability by a % of 1%...for those that have underlying health issues, of all ages, it certainly has a greater benefit...so, to each their own...
But masks don't work as currently mandated...it's illogical but the rulers persist...
NHI just gives the ANC access to a bigger procurement spending pie...pre-determined suppliers, with "donations" coming back to the ANC...notice how leftists always proclaim their intent to be for a greater good (the arrogance of thinking they are our betters) but the actual outcome is for the enriching of a few...

I don't think they can tell 'for sure' who infected you - but I think it has been established that mostly a person who has had a jab or two is less likely to infect someone else; also read somewhere that scientists are trying to establish what stops some people (vaccinated or not) from getting COVID, whether they have been in close contact with an infected person, or not - basically I think there is a lot that 'we' don't know yet :dry:

US Military Doctor Testifies She Was Ordered to ‘Cover Up’ Vaccine Injuries
Dr. Long also testified that the data shows that deaths of military members from the vaccines exceed deaths from COVID itself.
By Baxter Dmitry
April 05, 2022
Region: USA
Theme: Law and Justice, Science and Medicine
Dr. Theresa Long, a medical officer with the United States military, has testified in court that she was ordered by a superior to suppress Covid-19 vaccine injuries following the Biden regime’s mandate.
The DoD downplayed Dr. Long’s conclusions, saying the increase in vaccine injuries was caused by a “glitch in the database.”
On March 10, Liberty Counsel, the law firm representing thirty members of the military who are fighting the military vaccine mandate, returned to federal court to defend the preliminary injunction Judge Steven Merryday granted two military plaintiffs that allowed them to skirt the military vaccine mandate.
The Department of Defense (DoD) asked the judge to set aside the injunction while the case was on appeal.
Judge Merryday is a United States District Judge of the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida.
Per DailyExpose: During the all-day hearing, Liberty Counsel presented compelling testimony from the Navy Commander of a surface warship and three military flight surgeons, Lt. Col. Peter Chambers, Lt. Col. Teresa Long and Col. (Ret.) Stewart Tankersley, M.D. In contrast, the DOD declined to present witnesses.
Founder and Chairman of Liberty Counsel Mat Staver said in an interview with the Blaze’s Daniel Horowitz on Monday that there have been three hearings now in this case, and the DoD has not yet offered a single witness. Instead of witnesses, the government “sends these declarations,” Staver explained. He said the judge has urged them to bring live witnesses to court so they can be cross examined, but they just refuse to do it. “So they send these declarations that some JAG attorney writes, and somebody in the military signs off on them.”
Staver said that the information the DoD has been presenting in court is “outdated, wrong, and would really be subject to dismantling under cross examination.” He added that cross examinations of his witnesses have only made their case stronger. “So they really don’t have anything to cross examine our witnesses with,” he said.
Staver told Horowitz that Judge Merryday has chastised the DoD lawyers during the hearings, telling them they have “a frail case,” and are “acting as though they are above the law.”
Dr. Theresa Long, a flight surgeon who holds a master’s degree in Public Health and is specially trained in the DMED, gave emotional testimony on March 10.
She and two other flight surgeons reviewed DMED last year and made some stunning discoveries about the high incidence of apparent vaccine injuries among members of the military.
According to the whistleblowers, certain disorders spiked after the vaccine mandate went into effect, including miscarriages and cancers, and neurological problems which increased by 1000 percent.
Dr. Long testified that she was contacted by high level officer the night before the hearing, and told not to discuss her findings regarding the explosive military medical data in court. The whistleblower reportedly said she felt threatened after she tried to get her superiors to address the findings, “fearing for her life and for the safety of her children.”
Since the whistleblowers came forward with the DMED data, the DoD has thrown cold water on their conclusions, saying the increase in vaccine injuries was caused by a “glitch in the database.”
Politifact contacted Peter Graves, spokesperson for the Defense Health Agency’s Armed Forces Surveillance Division, who said the data for 2021 is correct, but for some reason, the data for the five years prior was inaccurate. Graves told PolitiFact by email that the division reviewed data in the DMED “and found that the data was incorrect for the years 2016-2020.”
In other words, for five straight years, the data was seriously corrupted and none of the DoD’s data analysts figured this out, and then it fixed itself on its own in 2021. The DoD has since put out new numbers showing more illnesses among the troops for the years prior to 2021.
Staver asked Long a question about the DMED data during the hearing, and she answered: “I have been ordered not to answer that question.”
Judge Merryday reportedly asked Long: “Ordered by who?,” and the doctor explained what happened the night before the hearing.
Staver then asked Long if the information the military ordered her to withhold was relevant and helpful for the court and the public to know. She said, “yes,” and Staver asked her why.
Long reportedly paused and choked back tears as she told the judge: “I have so many soldiers being destroyed by this vaccine. Not a single member of my senior command has discussed my concerns with me … I have nothing to gain and everything to lose by talking about it. I’m OK with that because I am watching people get absolutely destroyed.”
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Dr. Long also testified that the data shows that deaths of military members from the vaccines exceed deaths from COVID itself.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Staver later told Horowitz that the DoD’s order for her not to discuss DMED amounted to witness tampering, especially since Long has whistleblower protections.
“They not only violated the Whistleblower Act, they potentially intimidated a witness and tried to change that witness’ testimony,” he said during the Conservative Review podcast on Monday.
The doctor said she is constantly contacted by people who have been injured by the genetic vaccines, and that many of those injured are pilots, who are expected to meet high fitness standards. Long told Staver that in just one afternoon she heard from four pilots who had just gotten MRIs back showing that they had myocarditis.
Morale is tanking in the military, she testified, with soldiers are in despair over the pressure to get the vaccine, and some are even having suicidal thoughts.
Long said she was aware of at least two people who have committed suicide over the pressure, and the threat of punishment for refusal.
She said the current regime’s policies are undermining “good order and discipline.”
In addition to Dr. Long, an unnamed Navy commander testified about his commander’s attempts to punish him for refusing the experimental injections.
On February 2, Judge Merryday issued a temporary restraining order blocking the Navy from punishing the Commander because of his vaccination status. Judge Merryday ruled the Navy violated the federal Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA).
When the court ordered the Commodore to comply with the law, he filed an affidavit saying he had “lost confidence” in the Commander because the Commander had not taken the COVID shots.
The judge then entered a preliminary injunction, and the DOD and the Navy filed a motion asking the court to set aside his injunction, arguing that due to their “lost confidence” in the commander, his ship could not deploy.
However, at the time the ship was allegedly unable to be deployed, the commander was actually far out to sea testing the ship and training the crew.
While many Commanders fail to complete these operations timely, the Commander completed the mission early and the ship deemed “safe and ready.”
In a dramatic moment, the Commander said he should not have to be there in court defending religious freedom. “Generals and admirals should be here saying what I am saying today to uphold religious freedom. Our religious freedoms are being attacked.”
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Also testifying last week was Dr. Pete Chambers, a Purple Heart recipient who is in the Texas National Guard defending the southern border where 10,000-20,000 illegal immigrants are flooding through every week. “My job is to keep our soldiers safe,” Chambers said.
Chambers was hoping to retire from the military in 2023 after nearly 40 years of service, but his adverse reaction to the Moderna shot derailed his plans.
Trusting the military that the shots are “safe and effective,” and not knowing at the time that aborted fetal cells were used in the testing and/or development, he took the shot. He now suffers from demyelination, a condition affecting the central nervous system caused by the injection.
After his Moderna injury, Dr. Chambers met Lt. Col. Long. They reviewed the DOD’s Defense Medical Epidemiology Database (DMED), the military equivalent to the federal government’s Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), where he discovered other military members also developed a demyelination disease after the COVID shots.
Chambers, a military flight surgeon and one of only six Green Beret surgeons, was told that his job was to get soldiers to vaccinated. His superiors told him that religious exemptions would be automatically denied. “Soldiers will try. Soldiers will fail,” this commanders said.
He pointed out that shots are not effective in preventing infection, and estimated that about 75-80% of soldiers getting infected are “double vaxxed” compared to only about 15% of soldiers who are not vaccinated.
Like Long, Chambers also testified that many soldiers are being injured by the COVID shots, and that “this is not normal.”
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Dr. Stewart Tankersley, a flight surgeon who retired in September 2021 at the rank of Colonel, testified that the injections are neither safe nor effective.
Tankersley said he has personally treated over 200 COVID patients with no fatalities, and the group of doctors with whom he is associated has treated over 18,000 COVID patients with deaths only in the single digits.
“I’ve never seen anything like this in the military or civilian world, the lack of dialogue, the suppression of scientific dialogue.” Tankersley said on the stand.
Dr. Tankersley explained one of several reasons there are so many injuries from the COVID shots. The mRNA vaccines require a Lipid Nanoparticle (LNP) as a delivery mechanism because the RNA quickly degrades without being encased in the LNP. The combination bypasses the natural immune system and creates inflammation that can inhibit the body’s innate immunity.
Dr. Tankersley testified that the shots are neither safe nor effective. He also testified that there are safe and effective treatments for COVID, including nasal rinsing and ivermectin.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Liberty Counsel argued that the DOD’s position that the only one way to combat COVID and ensure military readiness is to force the injections and kick out the unvaccinated is “untenable,” and that the mandate is undermining military readiness and harming morale.
Staver said: “I am honored to serve the brave men and women of the military. I am dismayed by the abuse and propaganda forced upon them from the White House and the Department of Defense. The truth will prevail, and freedom will win.”

HEALTH ACT AMENDMENT
DearSA-Health-regulations
DearSA-FORSA
188,187
comments individually delivered to government so far (closes 15 April 2022)
The Department of Health has published new regulations under the National Health Act which will effectively act as a long-term permanent replacement to South Africa’s state of disaster Covid regulations.
Once the regulations are approved, the Department of Health said they would be implemented without being tabled in parliament, since it is subordinate legislation already delegated to the minister.
all people entering or exiting South Africa during a pandemic should present negative PCR tests not older than 72 hours in the event they do not have a vaccination certificate.
continued restrictions will be placed on night vigils and after-funeral gatherings.
Indoor and outdoor gatherings may be occupied up to 50% of the venue capacity, provided valid vaccine certificates are produced. For gatherings where no valid vaccine certificates are required, artificial limits of 1,000 and 2,000 people will apply for indoor and outdoor gatherings, respectively.
Social distancing of one metre must be maintained.
Face masks will be compulsory for indoor gatherings, people cannot enter public premises or make use of public transport without a mask.
The regulations also leave the door open for other restrictions, labelled as ‘advice giving’ between different departments. This advice can relate to curfew, national lockdown, economic activity and the sale of alcohol, among others.

Religious Freedom list of concerns
That limitation on the right to religious freedom will be in place indefinitely as long as the Minister has listed a disease as a “notifiable medical condition” (“NMC”).
The same degree of limitation on the right to religious freedom will be in place, irrespective of the severity of the disease.
The proposed imposition of mandatory treatment (which is undefined and could therefore include mandatory vaccination), for merely having been exposed to someone with a NMC, or for being simply “suspected” of having contracted a NMC.
The proposed imposition of self-isolation on an asymptomatic person which will prevent them from attending any religious gatherings (e.g. small group meetings).
Religious organisations with large venues (more than 1000 people indoors) will not be able to operate at 50% of venue capacity without requiring their congregants to show proof of vaccination. This is a gross and unjustifiable violation of the right to religious freedom guaranteed by sections 15 and 31 of the Constitution.
Reg16J(5)’s limitation on the number of unvaccinated people that can attend a gathering of 1000 people indoor and 2000 people outdoor, irrespective of the size of the venue. Religious organisations with large venues will not be able to operate at 50% of venue capacity without requiring their congregants to show proof of vaccination.
That failure to comply with these provisions is a criminal offence with a sanction of an unspecified fine and/or 10 years in jail.
SUMMARY
The amended regulations include:
Mandatory medical examinations, isolation, and treatments for people with notifiable medical conditions, with an option to self-isolate for those with Internet access
Mandatory face masks for indoor gatherings and public transport
1-metre physical distancing
Employers to encourage work-from-home where necessary and restrict face-to-face meetings
Travellers entering and leaving South Africa must have a vaccine certificate, or a negative PCR test no older than 72 hours
Hand sanitisers must be placed at all entrances of public places to promote hand hygiene
Restrictions on funeral attendance — During Covid–19, funerals are limited to 100 people.
Restrictions on night vigils and after-funeral gatherings — Banned during Covid–19
Restrictions on attendance at other gatherings — 50% of venue capacity, if attendees have vaccine certificates. Without proof of vaccination, attendance is limited to 1,000 indoors and 2,000 outdoors.
The regulations also allow further restrictions to be implemented through other government departments.
The Department of Health may give advice relating to curfews, a national lockdown, sports, economic activity, public transportation, religious and cultural practices, and the sale of alcohol.
Once the regulations are approved, the Department of Health said they would be implemented without being tabled in parliament, since it is subordinate legislation already delegated to the minister.
ENABLING YOU TO SHAPE GOVERNMENT POLICY
Dear South Africa is a legally recognised and constitutionally protected non-profit platform which enables the public to co-shape all government policies, amendments and proposals. We’ve run many successful campaigns and have amassed a considerably large active participant network of over 750,000 individuals across the country and beyond.
We do not run petitions. We run legally recognised public participation processes which allow citizens to co-form policy at all levels of governance. Whereas petitions, even if they contain thousands of signatures, are considered as a single submission by government, our process ensures that each comment made through dearsouthafrica.co.za is recognised and counted as an individual submission by government.
Furthermore, we keep an accurate record of all participation and produce a publicly available report at the end of each project. This report forms the foundation of a sound legal case should the necessity to challenge the decision arise.
Participation costs you NOTHING, and is so easy and quick to do through the platform that you really have no excuse not to help shape policy BEFORE it becomes law. Legally challenging implemented law is costly and rarely successful. Prevention is better than cure.
Participation in decision-making processes means a possibility for citizens, civil society organisations and other interested parties to influence the development of policies and laws which affect them. We’ve made it easy for you as a responsible citizen of South Africa, to influence government decisions before they are made.

comments individually delivered to government so far (closes 15 April 2022)
The Department of Health has published new regulations under the National Health Act which will effectively act as a long-term permanent replacement to South Africa’s state of disaster Covid regulations.
Once the regulations are approved, the Department of Health said they would be implemented without being tabled in parliament, since it is subordinate legislation already delegated to the minister.
all people entering or exiting South Africa during a pandemic should present negative PCR tests not older than 72 hours in the event they do not have a vaccination certificate.
continued restrictions will be placed on night vigils and after-funeral gatherings.
Indoor and outdoor gatherings may be occupied up to 50% of the venue capacity, provided valid vaccine certificates are produced. For gatherings where no valid vaccine certificates are required, artificial limits of 1,000 and 2,000 people will apply for indoor and outdoor gatherings, respectively.
Social distancing of one metre must be maintained.
Face masks will be compulsory for indoor gatherings, people cannot enter public premises or make use of public transport without a mask.
The regulations also leave the door open for other restrictions, labelled as ‘advice giving’ between different departments. This advice can relate to curfew, national lockdown, economic activity and the sale of alcohol, among others.

Religious Freedom list of concerns
That limitation on the right to religious freedom will be in place indefinitely as long as the Minister has listed a disease as a “notifiable medical condition” (“NMC”).
The same degree of limitation on the right to religious freedom will be in place, irrespective of the severity of the disease.
The proposed imposition of mandatory treatment (which is undefined and could therefore include mandatory vaccination), for merely having been exposed to someone with a NMC, or for being simply “suspected” of having contracted a NMC.
The proposed imposition of self-isolation on an asymptomatic person which will prevent them from attending any religious gatherings (e.g. small group meetings).
Religious organisations with large venues (more than 1000 people indoors) will not be able to operate at 50% of venue capacity without requiring their congregants to show proof of vaccination. This is a gross and unjustifiable violation of the right to religious freedom guaranteed by sections 15 and 31 of the Constitution.
Reg16J(5)’s limitation on the number of unvaccinated people that can attend a gathering of 1000 people indoor and 2000 people outdoor, irrespective of the size of the venue. Religious organisations with large venues will not be able to operate at 50% of venue capacity without requiring their congregants to show proof of vaccination.
That failure to comply with these provisions is a criminal offence with a sanction of an unspecified fine and/or 10 years in jail.
SUMMARY
The amended regulations include:
Mandatory medical examinations, isolation, and treatments for people with notifiable medical conditions, with an option to self-isolate for those with Internet access
Mandatory face masks for indoor gatherings and public transport
1-metre physical distancing
Employers to encourage work-from-home where necessary and restrict face-to-face meetings
Travellers entering and leaving South Africa must have a vaccine certificate, or a negative PCR test no older than 72 hours
Hand sanitisers must be placed at all entrances of public places to promote hand hygiene
Restrictions on funeral attendance — During Covid–19, funerals are limited to 100 people.
Restrictions on night vigils and after-funeral gatherings — Banned during Covid–19
Restrictions on attendance at other gatherings — 50% of venue capacity, if attendees have vaccine certificates. Without proof of vaccination, attendance is limited to 1,000 indoors and 2,000 outdoors.
The regulations also allow further restrictions to be implemented through other government departments.

Re: Fears and thoughts in South Africa

The politburo refuse to listen to logic...they think we are all sycophantic toadies and minions like their supporters towards whom they display patronising paternalism...
The Deputy Minister of Health or DG in the Dept of Health was on the radio the other day trying to explain some of the nonsense in these regulations like the cap on numbers at funerals being far less than that at weddings...he said that weddings are more emotive affairs where people hug and kiss each other and the close contact could lead to the spread of the virus...the presenter asked him if he had been to a wedding to see that possibly more hugging and kissing goes on and the erstwhile (?) politburo member was stumped...
They cannot see the idiocy of some / most of their utterances and stupidly think they are our betters that know what is best for us...but they never follow the rules they impose on others...in Biblical times, one would wish a plague upon them...
