Scientific miracle: German MPs stay immune against Covid longer than ordinary citizens

The Coronavirus seems to be the world's first political virus with a fine sense of privilege. This is evident, for instance, in the fact that German ministers like Karl Lauterbach appear to be less contagious than his subordinates.

    The Coronavirus knows how to spare important people like Karl Lauterbach. He does not require a mask in meetings. But his minions do not have the same political virus privilege. Facebook

    This is the conclusion after a picture of Lauterbach circulated via social media. In a post with the following text: “Here’s to good cooperation. With General Breuer, the head of the crisis team, the logistics of vaccine supply will soon be significantly improved. For the first time with a general in a team game.”

    None of their medical justifications explain why high-ranking officials should sit together at a table without wearing a mask while the subordinates in the room should be masked.

    The same goes for the weekly Federal Press Conference where the government spokespersons up on stage can take off their masks, but the journalists down in the hall have to keep them on when asking questions – although this invariably leads to communication problems.

    This political sensitivity of the virus certainly also explains why, for example, Bavaria’s Interior Minister Joachim Herrmann (CSU) feasted on three-course meals with the police during the lockdown and his boss Bavarian President Markus Söder, unlike common mortals, was spared quarantine after contact with someone who had tested positive. Others faced extremely harsh penalties for the same transgressions.

    The virus is political

    The political orientation of the virus has reached a new peak. With the click of a mouse, the Robert Koch Institute has further curtailed the basic rights of millions of German citizens who have been diagnosed with the virus, by reducing the validity of this status to two months overnight.

    A person who had been infected with Covid-19 was previously considered recovered for six months. This period has now been shortened. People who have been infected in future will be considered as recovered for three months only. A booster vaccination is then recommended.

    The time frame is effectively two months – not three – since only those who can show a positive PCR test result that is at least 28 days old are considered recovered.

    Those who have survived a virus-related illness are, according to the results of a number of medical studies, better protected against a new infection with subsequent illness than those who have been injected and boosted. But the German administration has no interest in scientific studies which contradict them.

    Switzerland, for example, extended this status to twelve months. The scientific basis for this decision is therefore so wafer-thin that even German state broadcaster ZDF – tireless vaccine shills – have been left red-faced to explain the meanderings of the political virus.

    Lauterbach spokesman Hanno Kautz eventually let the cat out of the bag at the press briefing: One could see the shortening of the convalescent status “also as an incentive to get vaccinated”.

    George Orwell’s Animal Farm has turned into a circus

    So while the common mortal is protected by recovery for only two months, MPs, fortunately, remain protected by it for six months. For their access to the Bundestag, they have been given longer immunity. By flashing a positive PCR laboratory test, MP’s will be able to attend plenary sessions for six months. The reason for this is a general decree issued by Bundestag President Bärbel Bas (SPD) for parliament, even before the reduction was announced by the RKI.

    The ex-member of parliament Elisabeth Moschmann noted on Twitter: “If it’s true that the convalescent status in the Bundestag is still 6 months, that’s the last straw. One can hardly believe it.” She added: “Privileges for MPs? All people are equal, but MPs are ‘more equal’?”

    From a formal legal point of view, this status is untenable. But it serves as yet another prime example of the extent of contradiction and absurdity that the Corona regulations in Germany have reached.

    According to a new study by the Paul Ehrlich Institute, a federal authority, antibodies can be detected for 430 days after a Corona infection “without an endpoint being foreseeable”. The same Paul Ehrlich Institute, which advises the Minister of Health, was partly responsible for shortening the convalescent status to 62 days, for the common mortals.

    DESTRUCTIVE HAILSTORMS will become more frequent and violent with increasingly larger hail, predicted solar researcher Valentina Zharkova back in 2019 when she stated that it's one of many signs of an impending Grand Solar Minimum. This is exactly what we have witnessed this year in both Europe and the world. Here is the German town of Benediktbeuern in Bavaria after a hailstorm on August 26th. Almost all rooftops and cars were damaged. The centuries-old church and monastery were damaged for the first time ever. Interestingly, the monastery was rebuilt in 1699 during the Maunder Minimum. Combined with heavy rainfall, extreme weather will devastate a significant portion of our food production. For instance, heavy rainfall destroyed a quarter of all crops in Greece in just two days in September. However, mainstream media remains silent. Photo: X @safe0007/Sandor Feher

    NOAA Predicts Zero Sunspots for Almost the Whole 2030s

    CLIMATEThe United States' government scientific organization, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), predicts zero sunspots from 2031 to 2040. This is an extreme situation that has not occurred in as long as humanity has been counting sunspots, and it leads us into uncharted territory in terms of our solar system. However, this prediction aligns with the warnings of the world-renowned solar researcher Valentina Zharkova for many years, who indicated in 2019 various signs of this catastrophic phenomenon, including the extreme hailstorms we have seen in Europe and the world this summer. The forecast and various observations this year give cause for very significant concern. In this unique analysis, Free West Media explains why.

    NATIONALIST COLLABORATION TAKES SHAPE. Six parties met in Budapest on August 26th to sign a joint declaration confirming the friendship and political unity among the parties. The goal is to either form a new group in the European Parliament after the EU elections in June next year or to reconstitute the existing Identity and Democracy (ID) group with the new parties.

    European Nationalist Parties Forge Cooperation Ahead of EU Elections

    EUROPEAN ELECTIONSOn Saturday, August 26, representatives of six European nationalist parties gathered in Budapest. The meeting was initiated by the Hungarian party Mi Hazánk and took place in the national parliament. Representatives of the parties signed a joint declaration that not only reaffirms the parties' friendship but also their unity on a range of complex political issues. A surprisingly clear and radical manifesto was established. The hope is that this cooperation will lead to success in the EU elections and eventually result in the formation of a group in the European Parliament. For Swedish nationalism, this meeting marks a success as Sweden, for the first time, has a party represented in a leading nationalist cooperation in Europe. Free West Media was present at this historic event.

    Swedish Weapon Takes Down Russia’s Best Attack Helicopter

    The Russian attack helicopter Ka-52 is considered one of the world's best and has struck fear in Ukraine, where it has hunted down tanks and other armored vehicles, often beyond the range of many light anti-aircraft systems. However, it has met its match in the Swedish air defense missile system RBS 70, which has quickly led to significant losses for the Russian helicopter forces.

    The Sun Drives Earth’s Climate, Not Carbon Dioxide

    Top Researchers Push Back Against Climate Lies."The correlation is as clear as day," explained the Israeli astrophysicist Nir Shaviv, who was hailed by the establishment, before his interview with Forbes was hastily deleted. What he says contradicts the climate narrative, which points to humans as responsible for Earth's climate. Shaviv firmly asserts that it is the sun that controls the climate, something that can be scientifically proven in many ways. Contrary to the popular belief, the sun's influence on Earth has, in recent years, caused unusually cold and rainy weather, a trend that solar researchers warn will worsen significantly in the coming decades. The sun has exhibited an unusually low activity since 2016, during Solar Cycle 24, which was the weakest in a century.

    Alternative for Germany held its conference during the last weekend of July in the thousand-year-old city of Magdeburg, located by the Elbe River in the eastern German state of Saxony. The first of the two conference days began with a strong program speech by the party's male spokesperson. Subsequently, party officials were elected and motions were addressed. The second day was entirely devoted to candidate selection and positioning for the EU election in June next year. Screenshot: AfD on Facebook

    Strong Confidence in German AfD

    Alternative for Germany (AfD) held a party conference on July 29-30 to select candidates for the upcoming EU election next year. EU Parliament member Maximilian Krah, belonging to the party's more radical, ethnonationalist faction, was appointed as the top candidate. The party's two spokespersons delivered powerful speeches criticizing the EU's failed migration policy and trade sanctions that isolate Europe and Germany from the rest of the world. They argued that it's time for the EU to return a significant portion of its power to national parliaments. However, they have dropped the demand for Germany to exit the EU.

    Maximilian Krah is one of the AfD politicians who is singled out as an ethnonationalist, as he has stated that there is a distinction between ethnic Germans and immigrants who have obtained German citizenship. Krah is a Member of the European Parliament and AfD's top candidate for the upcoming European Union election next year. Still image: AfD on Facebook

    The Establishment Wants to Ban Germany’s Second Largest Party – for the Sake of Democracy

    The rising popularity of AfD has raised strong concerns within the establishment. Despite lies and demonization in the media and isolation from the overall political establishment, the party continues to grow. Certain representatives of the party are accused of becoming increasingly "extreme," and in an unusual move, the influential weekly newspaper Der Spiegel demanded that AfD be "banned."

    FvD was quick to support the protests against covid restrictions. Today, the party also stands behind the farmers protests against the governments’ plans to close a big portion of the farms in the country for the sake of “climate”.
