[Note by Jack Wheeler:  I have taken quercetin daily for many years, for overall health and life-extension purposes.  That research is emerging of its being protective against the Chicom virus, indeed all viruses as reported here by Dr. Joondeph, should be of interest to us all – although I’ll now have to double my dose to around 1 gram a day (500mg 2xday), the therapeutic dose of the research.  Note that Amazon sells some two dozen quercetin formulas, at a cost of $20-$30 or so for 2 months supply.]

Quercetin has been in the news lately, particularly as one of many potential therapeutics that might have some benefit in the prevention or treatment of COVID infection. Is there anything to this?

Could quercetin be of benefit against COVID, or for that matter, the common cold or the flu? As are always told to “follow the science”, what does science say? Let’s take a look.

They’re all around us, especially those of us who live in relatively prosperous metropolitan neighborhoods in the US or Western Europe. Despite being—at least in material terms—among the most fortunate people who have ever walked the earth, they are very scared.

And they want you to be very frightened too.

Indeed, many of them see your refusal to be as frightened as they are about life’s inevitable risks as a grave problem which entitles them and their often powerful and influential fellow travelers to recur to all manner of authoritarian practices to ensure that you adhere to their increasingly neurotic view of reality.

Why?

Despite the COVID-19 vaccines having been promoted as safe and effective by legacy media, many health care workers are refusing to take them, and those who openly speak out about their concerns get censored by Big Tech companies or kicked off their platforms.

Some nurses and doctors are refusing vaccine mandates even if their refusal will cost them their jobs.  I recently interviewed a number of them to learn why.  I believe they are representative of many thousands of health care professionals all over America who refuse to bow down to vax mandates.  This is what they told me in their own words.

The whole Progressive, Leftist enterprise can be characterized as the astonishing practice of trying to improve things by making them worse. It has always been so.

Today, Lenin’s heirs insistently promote equity and anti-racism, even as the results of their policies look like chaos. Border control is non-existent, vagrancy is explained away, crimes have been de-criminalized, and everyone must be injected with substances that are not entirely safe or effective. But rejoice brothers and sisters in the struggle, for we’re eradicating inequalities and disparities.

How is it, though, that despite the wretched examples of Soviet Russia, Cuba, Venezuela, and other experiments in political and social ruin, up to and including the Biden administration, we can’t shake this ever-failing philosophy?

Don’t want this to happen to your state’s schools?  Here’s a suggestion or two to prevent that.

Until quite recently, American parents thought of public schools as democratically accountable local institutions. But the pandemic revealed how much of K-12 education is controlled by teachers’ unions, unelected bureaucrats, and non-governmental organizations.

This reality, considered alongside the apparent collusion between the Biden White House and the National School Boards Association to create a pretext for a federal law enforcement intervention to chill parental opposition to critical race theory (CRT), will raise the specter in many parents’ minds of a public education “deep state.”  This has to be stopped.

Professor Alexander Lukin’s book “China and Russia: The New Rapprochement” discussed the promise of Sino-Russian cooperation.  That was in 2018.

In contrast, Lukin now frankly admits that “any possible changes in U.S. policy will probably prove less of a deterrent to further Russian-Chinese rapprochement than will Russian concerns over China’s growing assertiveness.” He argues that “the peak of Russian-Chinese rapprochement has probably passed.”

There’s an old saying that best friends can make the worst enemies.  Is that happening between Russia and China?
