Air Pollution Links to SARS-COV-2

New Study to add to Harvard work and N. Italian analysis. Correlation, not yet causal link. Italy (North), Spain, Germany, UK and these early studies show it's pretty obvious what's been happening. These papers are a bit rough, which shows they throw these together very quickly, then out online. Impressive, proper Open Source stuff. No doubt people working at this for rest of 2020. Not the oilers, free marketeer resisters or academics in KSA or Rossiya.




"The spatial analysis has been conducted on a regional scale and combined with the number of death cases taken from 66 administrative regions in Italy, Spain, France and Germany. Results show that out of the 4443 fatality cases, 3487 (78%) were in five regions located in north Italy and central Spain. Additionally, the same five regions show the highest NO2 concentrations combined with downwards airflow which prevent an efficient dispersion of air pollution. These results indicate that the long-term exposure to this pollutant may be one of the most important contributors to fatality caused by the COVID-19 virus in these regions and maybe across the whole world".

There must be: (a) Disappearance of petrol and diesel vehicles, ASAP; (b) Accelerated shift to car free cities and towns.
Bye-Bye petrolheads. Evidence shows clearly there is always resistance to this from the usual people, which will continue but hopefully reduce in vociferousness and effect.

  There is a large segment of British society, both home and abroad, who have not been able to gain from the terrible experiences of parents and grandparents. Through no fault of their own other than choices about how and what to learn, they never heard from an early age about any invasion of their country, never read about the desecration of their family homes and so were able to learn from that. It is no accident that Japan and Germany are two very stable successful countries now whereas Britain and America are going through various political and social turmoils and attempts at shifts to authoritarianism. In parts of mainly non-Celtic Britain, mostly within certain older parts of the moderately affluent Middle Classes, a sub-group of that deeply privileged sector received, then stoked a probably detrimental surfeit of jingoistic and ersatz "Patriotism" through much of a lifetime. It seems at times to be the very breathed air itself for those Johnnies. The results may

Quantitatively Eased Manipulated Digital Cashflows [QEMDC] Trickling Upwards in a Gush

    Quantitatively Eased Manipulated Digital Cashflows [QEMDC] trickling upwards in a gush. A neatly manufactured cash-teat sucked at by old nasties Drexel Burnham Lambert [DBL], Blackstone, Stephen Schwarzman, Apollo, Leon Black, Barclays, Deutsche Bank, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts [KKR], cold dead philanthropist and jet-setter Jeff Epstein and a few other Movers and Killers all mixed into that particular soup. Predatory vulture disaster capitalism at it's very best. Potentially coming to your nearest health insurers, asset strippers and property inflaters in US, AUS and UK soon, so make sure you are well prepared [$$$$] folks. More opportunities for supporters to screech "Conspiracy Hypothesis" at every opportunity when finance related issues nudge against the fundamental orientation of their prevailing grain from a position of great knowledge. Apollo, run until recently by the nasty Leon Black before the stink of his Epstein ties became overpowering and he resigned,

New Names Required for GOP and Tories

    Lest anyone be unsure as to the still remaining intentions of many the men remaining within what is still called the Republican Party in America, as well as their handmaidens in what is still called the Conservative Party in England. They were tolerated and often silently agreed with by many in those groups/parties over the years and decades.   Ten years ago they started to steadily accelerate the money, hoping the time was right. Nazism in Deutschland was essentially a gangster regime, deeply envious and resentful towards The British Empire, wanting it's share of the spoils. This is precisely what happened in that decade we all learned about and thought could not occur again. Do not believe it. No-one was prepared to stop it then and many now cry "Wolf" now. No-one used the phrase "Conspiracy Theories" in 1934. It is very simple. One is either with it or against it. There is no flexible "middle ground". That's called "accomm
