The ‘midwit’ really came into its own during Covid and what a curse on the world they were, these individuals of above average intelligence, but not too far above, who nevertheless liked to think of themselves as far wiser than the common pleb. Every State Chief Medical/Health Officer in Australia was a classic midwit, diving into complex, multi-faceted public health issues with simplistic notions and infantile policies.
The CHOs/CMOs were entirely unaware of the limits to their public health omniscience but their omnipotence was, alas, very real – they could issue legally-enforceable but patently absurd Public Health Orders of great scope and, cheered on by media flattery, they went about stuffing up entire economies and ruining or degrading many people’s lives with bull-in-a-china-shop effectiveness.
Most of the Covid midwits have now receded back into the intellectual swamp they came from because no one is listening to them anymore. In the US, for example, only 2% of the population have availed themselves of the latest, ‘bivalent’ booster that is supposed to protect against two new horror strains whilst in Australia, a mere 8.1% of Australians aged 18-64 were fully immunised at 27 September and less than half (44.3%) of people aged 75+ (those allegedly most vulnerable to the dread disease) have bothered to get the recommended up-to-date jab. We are over it.
Some Covid midwits, however, are still valiantly fighting a rearguard action, like that Japanese soldier, second-lieutenant Hiroo Onoda, who did not surrender and who hung out as a guerrilla fighter for 29 years in the Philippines after the end of the war in the Pacific. He must have been an inspiration for Australia’s own Covid warriors who are manning the Long Covid redoubts, masks in hand and boosters at the ready, including Dr Claire Taylor, MBChB, BSc, a former neuroscientist who now runs a ‘Long Covid’ clinic in Perth where she is still fighting the lost war against Covid.
It all kicked off when Dr Taylor’s ‘Never Surrender’ Covid colleague, the Canadian, Dr Nili Kaplan-Myrth, tweeted last week that she had twice ‘gotten Covid’ in the last month. Her Australian Covid doppelganger immediately came to Dr Kaplan-Myrth’s defence against the rude people who besieged, on-line, the Canadian Covid magnet, by saying that recurring Covid infections are real and how three times in a year, in March, June and August, 2022, Dr Taylor herself had ‘got Covid’ despite her fully-immunised status, with “each infection as grim as the last”.
Not only that but her son, and her doctor friends, are “all getting Covid about every five weeks”, concluding that it is now possible to be infected, not just frequently, but even by more than one Covid variant at the same time. Covid doesn’t even wait for the last infection to end anymore. That’s one dangerous viral enemy out there!
It had to be Covid that was responsible because the Covid vaxx must be above suspicion and the possibility that, booster by booster, people have been trashing their immune systems and picking up a host of other vaxx injuries. Her long Twitter/X thread cri-de-coeur against the still clear and present danger of Covid showcases a midwit at their far-from-finest with gems such as the following:
· 100% of her ‘Long Covid’ patients have microclots in their blood (hmmm - nothing else could be causing that, Dr?)
· “Covid increases your risk of heart attacks, strokes and clots” (see above).
· “Covid can persist in tonsils, the brain, the lymph nodes, the heart, generally anywhere”. “Generally anywhere”! (which pretty much sums up what happens when a toxic spike protein travels everywhere in the body, courtesy of the jabbed blood vessels, and transfects millions of cells through the LNP cell-penetrating delivery system).
· “19% of Long Covid patients have myocarditis” (now, which other group of the population can get myocarditis, which used to be quite rare until something new came on the scene).
· Her patients include 14-year-olds who present with fast heart rate and chest pain, contributing to “mass disablement – especially of young people” (seek Covid and ye shall find, do not seek Vaxx injury ye shall not find).
Our Dr Taylor further claims that unjabbed people are also getting Covid all the time but they just don’t know it because they aren’t testing for it! How will anyone know they are sick with Covid if they don’t test for it – they probably think they are perfectly fine, or have a common cold or something. The complacent fools! So, please, she implores her critics, “stop saying Long Covid is just a cold. It really, really isn’t”. Well, she is kind of correct - what would have been just a cold for almost everyone if they had ‘got Covid’ has been turned into something far, far worse once they got ‘vaccinated’ (repeat infections, a range of infections they just can’t shake, neurological/cardiac injuries, etc.)
Dr Taylor’s on-line screed is also notable, however, for what it doesn’t say. By now, it appears that even midwits like her are losing faith in the vaxx because, concerning her “each infection as grim as the last” comment, the phrase, ‘thank goodness I was fully vaccinated because otherwise it would have been so much worse’ has disappeared. Indeed, that flimsy last line of vaxx defence has faded from the entire narrative except at government headquarters where it still gets an increasingly desultory run as the sole remaining virtue of the dud vaxxes.
Even though the top generals of the Covid war effort, she says, have shown cowardice in the face of the viral enemy (she is distraught with the ending by the WHO of the formal global health emergency and looks despairingly on people, unmasked, getting back to normal life) there is still a war to be won because “someone is dying every three minutes [from Covid] and 10% of all those infected will get Long Covid”.
All is not lost, however, because there is still The Mask, that insignia of the Covid midwit army, thank goodness – “mask up (FFP2 or above) and test before meeting up with people” is her advice. The Mask represents midwittery at its moronic midwittiest – Dr Taylor seems unaware that her religious devotion to the mask hasn’t prevented her horror run with multiple Covid (or whatever respiratory virus it is) infections.
The media allies of the Covid Midwits are lending vital auxiliary support in the never ending defence of Covid hysteria. Just across the border from Dr Taylor’s WA, there is another dogged pocket of resistance to Covid sanity – “South Australians suffering debilitating symptoms from Long Covid are being forced to wait up to ten months to see experts in one of the state’s Long Covid Assessment Clinics at the Royal Adelaide Hospital”, in SA, reports InDaily.
‘Long Covid’ is the new virus ogre in town these days, superseding the now frankly toothless and boring old ordinary Covid ‘case’ count. As much as InDaily still tries to scare us about ‘cases’ (which “continue to plague the state with weekly reported cases of 645”) this sort of statistic doesn’t turn a hair these days (remember when we shut the state down for a handful of ‘cases’?) so now it’s the turn of “Long Covid” and its myriad discontents.
Covid of the ‘Long’ variety can leave you wiped out for months or years on end and everyone who gets Covid is potentially at risk of Long Covid - “SA Health estimated 35,000 South Australians can expect to contract long COVID”. Cue the alarm bells because the Covid astrologers have spoken. Mind you, it may be yet more worthless Covid modelling but, despite that, it gives us some sort of bargain basement government estimate for the number of serious Covid vaxx injuries to come but no alarm bells will be rung for that and no Long Vaxx clinics will ever be established.
Demand for the ‘Long Covid’ clinics is already through the roof from people who, for more than twelve weeks, have been experiencing “complex symptoms and significant functional impairment, with symptoms ranging from severe fatigue to brain fog and breathlessness”, drastically “impacting their return to work, study or social roles”. The clinics have been forced triage the wave of patients so that those with the most severe symptoms are seen first, leaving those with less chronic symptoms waiting for nearly a year to be seen.
One poor soul on the waiting list is quoted as complaining of the ‘Long Covid’ trifecta of fatigue, brain fog and breathlessness which has plunged him into forced idleness. This triage state of affairs implies that there must be some terribly awful stuff going down amongst those who are at the head of the queue, if this vaxx-injured chap is languishing at the bottom of the queue.
I think, in retrospect that Dr (“its not a cold, it really really isn’t”) Taylor is, inadvertently, right. What the Long Covid midwits are fretting about isn’t just a cold, or even post-viral syndrome (which is possible after any viral infection), but vaccine injury. Long Covid is Long Vaxx Injury. It really really is.
I'd forgotten about Nili. If provincial midwit misery is anything to go by, she and the rest of the Canadian dead-enders may very well boost themselves into the ultimate self-correction. That's not going to be much help for the children and elders they've managed to maim, but at least they'd be gone.
Wonderful, as usual, thanks for the research and efforts.
For rumination: I would be delighted, if i ever joined a 'defraud, then kill and maim innocents for personal gain' crusade, to escape with a mere 'midwit' title.
